The Third Round of Qingcheng Sect
"Why am I so unlucky? Tell me, why did I have two consecutive misfortunes?"
Looking at the cyan Taoist robe on my body, I repeatedly checked the system and found the congratulatory message that I had become a disciple of Qingcheng. I was so resentful and angry that I couldnt help but scold the heavens, my hair standing on end in rage, and I regretted it to no avail.
The mother introduced the blind date, at a critical moment said that due to something important, cant come. As for hoping to have another chance and so on, thats just politeness. Maybe she already has a boyfriend and doesnt want to meet this strange man.
But I heard the dating beauty was hopeless, so I dodged my mothers request to go home for dinner and ran back to my own little nest, continuing to conquer Mount Shu. Who would have thought? I happened to see a short beggar by the side of the road, moved by pity, actually, I thought this NPC might give me a hidden quest or something.
Unexpectedly, as I had wished, this task was indeed somewhat unique. After walking with him for a while, I inexplicably caught the eye of that damned dwarf, who considered me to have an excellent foundation and possess a celestial root, and then took me in as his disciple.
No kidding, Im so lucky to have run into one of the two most despicable dwarves in Shu Mountain - Zhu Mei. This dignified leader of Qingcheng is actually disguising himself as a beggar at the foot of the mountain? And, I checked the introduction on the forum, this dwarfs appearance rate is even lower than my chances of winning ten consecutive lottery draws.
As the disciple personally accepted by Qingcheng Sects master, I have an additional task compared to players who follow the system to cultivate and pay homage - accumulating good deeds. According to the system, Zhu Mei has cultivated enough to ascend, but the good deeds he promised to do havent reached the sufficient index. And since he is impatient to continue doing it, I, as his personally accepted disciple, will take on this thankless task in his place.
And what a reward! Apart from the legendary Zhu Meis flying sword that is said to be able to subdue demons, theres nothing else. As a loyal fan of Shu Shan, Ive never heard of this old poor ghosts flying sword being anything special. If it were Zi Yin, Qing Suo, or Qi Xiu... then it would be somewhat decent.
And by taking on this task, I automatically became a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect, making my dream of becoming a disciple of Emei come to nothing. The punishment for betraying ones sect is too severe, deducting 2,000 merit points and never being able to join an orthodox sect again. All I could do was endure it, relying on the system not having mind-reading abilities, I scolded Zhu Mei from her ancestors eight generations ago all the way to her aunts and sisters. However, this old man didnt seem to have any proper relatives, so scolding him was also in vain.
After joining Qingcheng, I received a beginners Taoist scripture as a gift from the system. Inside, it recorded several basic Qingcheng Taoist techniques. After equipping this Qingcheng beginners Taoist scripture, the system gave me an option: how much of the experience gained should be allocated to the cultivated technique? I casually selected 20%. Then, I went on to level up diligently.
At the moment of extreme depression, the communicator suddenly rang. I opened it and found that it was Qingteng Light Dance, a friend who often mixed with each other in the forum to discredit each other. I usually like to read some web novels, and when Im excited, I also put on a horse jacket in various poisonous tongue forums, discrediting this book and that book, which one is rotten and which one is the most rotten. As a result, after a long time, I also mixed up some fame and had many friends with similar tastes before the internal test began. These people have already flowed into each other, organizing the guild before the game was open. Named Yi Jie Fei Zhai Tuan (Wasteland of Heterogeneous Trash).
"Green Cow! Have you arrived? Everyone is leveling up at the foot of Mount Emei! Come join us!"
Qingteng Light Dance is a well-known beauty on the forum. According to some members of a certain wolf pack, they had asked her for photos before and indeed she was a little beauty. I wasnt that perverted, and usually didnt chat with girls online for too long, so I was skeptical about this claim. However, Qingteng Light Dances personality is quite playful, often making bets with people and always winning. Once, she made a bet on the World Cup with forum members using silver coins as stakes, and won, causing a group of wolf pack members to lose everything and owe a huge debt. From then on, whenever anyone bought lottery tickets, they would come ask Qingteng Light Dance for advice, and surprisingly, their chances of winning increased greatly.
I weakly told Qingteng Light Dance: "Emei, I wont go. Ive recently had bad luck and received a task known as the most perverted in Shu Mountain, which requires me to brush 100,000 merit points."
"Ten million merits?" Qingteng Lingwu was first stunned, then burst out laughing and said: "Youre that luckiest player from the Qingcheng faction on the forum, who got Zhu Meis personal transmission of the mantle! Ah, its really too cool! After accumulating ten million merits, youll get the orthodox Qingcheng heart method... Haha! Hahaha!"
Im quite annoyed, but its not good to lose my temper with Qingteng Light Dance. This task cant be completed in two or three months, and the reward is meager.
Moreover, this task has a time limit, and if it is not completed on time, 10,000 merit points will be deducted. As long as the merit points of Shu Mountain are negative, the heavenly tribulation will be triggered immediately. According to the size of the negative value, the heavenly tribulation also comes in three, six, and nine levels. From ordinary thunderbolts and firebolts to the most extreme four-nine heavenly tribulation that destroys heaven and earth, all are available. If ones power is insufficient, they will be struck down and reincarnated immediately. If their power is sufficient, after withstanding several heavenly tribulations, they will transform from a human into a demon.
"This is seriously perverted on a whole new level!"
I cut off my conversation with Qingteng Light Dance and went to the places where several demons appeared at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain to kill monsters and level up. These demons that appear and disappear unpredictably are not high in level, ranging from 7 or 8 levels to around 10 levels. They are divided into Qinglang Ghosts, Red-Haired Demons, Lustful Demons, etc.
As the saying goes, "Many roads lead to the mountain, but in the end, youll meet a ghost." I searched so hard and soon found one.
Green Tooth Ghost King, level 18. Temperament is cruel and fond of eating human blood.
"Oh no! Im just a second-level player. How could I possibly run into such a terrifying monster all of a sudden?!"
A narrow road encounter, I saw it, and it also saw me. Its too late to escape. Faced with such a predicament, I could only let out a loud shout, striking out with a fierce flame. Furthermore, I took out the wooden sword bought with all my familys possessions, wielding it with the most unskilled Qingcheng Sword Technique.
Wooden sword, made from ordinary peach wood, has the effect of driving away evil spirits.
