Who cares about childhood sweethearts when they can become immortals?

Chapter 180 Hundreds of Families
"The tasks in the Fairy Taoist Temple are not limited to the inside of the Taoist Temple. For example, many tasks of killing criminal cultivators are performed by the local Immortal Alliance security team. Tasks such as arranging formations can also be uploaded, and tasks such as Ordinary families can also submit their contribution points to issue rewards, and the Taoist Academy will convert them into equivalent immortal skills and issue rewards.”

"The intensity of use of formations in ordinary families is not very high, so naturally they are not easily damaged. As long as the required effect can be exerted, ordinary families may not mind using combined formations instead, but you need to ensure that the combination The formation will not have problems in a short period of time, so a warranty period is required. Generally speaking, the warranty for the second-level formation is three years," An Ke explained.

Xu Ji felt a little happy in his heart, as long as he could replace it with a combination of formations. As for the three-year warranty, it was not a problem at all. After all, with his extreme mastery of formations, the formations he had laid out were better than those of ordinary people. It is more stable. There will be no problems even in five or ten years, not to mention three years.

The only thing that makes Xu Ji regretful is that the formations arranged in the Taoist Temple are irreplaceable. Only the tasks of ordinary families outside the Taoist Temple can be replaced by combined formations. This is contrary to Xu Ji's original plan of staying in the Fairy Spirit Road. There are some inconsistencies in not going out in the courtyard, but if you take on a mission with a reward from a family in the Nine Continents Mansion, the safety will not be bad.

"However, combined formations require a deep understanding of formations, balancing the characteristics of different formations, and avoiding collisions between different formations in order to achieve the desired effect. It seems that Xu Ji, you have a lot of expertise in formations. Ah." An Ke clicked his tongue, "Xu Ji, you hide it really deep."

Xu Ji smiled and said: "I have always been interested in formations before, but I have just recently come to understand them. I plan to try to see if I can use formations to earn some immortal power and exchange them for training resources."

"The Taoist Academy has additional subsidies for practicing various arts. The speed of earning immortal skills is much higher than accepting the task of killing sinners. However, generally speaking, the students in the Xianling Taoist Academy focus on practicing. "I rarely practice these arts to avoid slowing down my own practice. Only those with extremely high talents will be distracted from practice." An Ke smiled and said, "Okay, I have to go to the battlefield outside the territory. Let's get off." Let’s talk again.”

After thanking An Ke and hanging up the phone, Xu Ji continued to look through the task list and set his sights on the Nine Continents Mansion outside the Xianling Taoist Temple that he had not noticed before. There were a lot of people, and Xu Ji noticed that when he checked the tasks, some tasks were constantly disappearing, indicating that this task may not only be published in Xianling Taoist Temple, but may be published in other Taoist temples at the same time, so it can appear. This is a situation where tasks are accepted in real time.

"It seems that finding a suitable mission requires some luck." Xu Ji flipped through the mission list casually, but was not worried about it. Most people can only take the formation they have mastered when accepting missions. It requires luck, and by combining formations, as long as you master enough first-order formations, you can almost simulate the effects of any formation, so you don't have to worry about not receiving suitable tasks.

After browsing for a while, Xu Ji discovered a formation that required the layout of a second-order gravity array. Although Xu Ji had never studied the formation diagram of a gravity array, he had also learned about this second-order gravity array through the book he had redeemed before. Formation, the second-level gravity formation is an auxiliary training formation. Its effect is to change the surrounding pressure to assist in tempering the physical body. It is somewhat similar to the effect of the Manji Sect's Dengtian Pass.

But thinking about the situation of the Bai family, a flash of realization flashed in Xu Ji's heart. Since other families had already made up their mind to divide the Bai family's property after the death of Master Bai Xing, even Bai Mu, who had entered the Xianling Taoist Temple, was not convinced. If you avoid the prying eyes of other families, how can other families encroach on hundreds of industries less?

In this way, even if Baijia has trained formation masters, how many of these formation masters will be willing to coexist and die with Baijia under the coercion and inducement of other families? In this way, when the formation needed to be arranged, the formation masters trained by the family who mastered this formation were poached by other families, and the Baijia had no choice but to seek help from the outside world.

It’s just that any monk who has understood the situation of hundreds of families also understands that taking on this task means getting involved in this muddy water. Those who have no strength dare not get involved and those who have the strength do not want to get involved. Therefore, when they see this Most of the task publishers chose to give up after Baijia. It is no wonder that no one took up the gravity array, which is not a complicated second-order formation. I am afraid that even if there is a stupid young man who takes it, he will be reminded and warned.

Although Xu Ji has never learned the gravity array, he can combine it with the three formations of spirit gathering array, earth covering array, and rejuvenation array that he has cultivated to the extreme level, to arrange a kind of effect that is not much different from the second-level gravity array. composite formation.

No longer hesitating in his heart, Xu Ji chose to take on the task. Soon the relevant information about the task appeared in front of Xu Ji. After carefully reading the information, a strange color flashed in Xu Ji's eyes. , and found that the publisher of this mission turned out to be the Baijia of the Haoyue Mansion, the family of the Baixing Master. They did not expect that a Jindan family like the Baijia would also offer a reward for setting up the formation.

Generally speaking, the Jindan family's industry is not too small. Even if Jindan himself has never studied formations, or is not proficient in the study of formations, it is not difficult to train several specialized formation masters. Usually, even if When you need to arrange formations, you can rely on these specially trained formation masters without having to ask for help from outside.

However, Xu Ji is not worried about all this. Ever since he faced Xiao Qiongfeng, it has been almost impossible to escape from it, and after all, the mission also has immortal power rewards, so there is no reason to let it go.

No longer hesitating, Xu Ji went directly to the teleportation array. After passing through the teleportation array, he came to Haoyue Mansion. Following the guidance, he came to Baijia's mansion. Baijia's mansion was located in the central area of ​​Haoyue Mansion, a short distance away from the teleportation array. The location was not too far away, and Xu Ji quickly arrived at the gate of Baijia.

"This is Baijia's manor, sir, do you have an invitation? If you don't have an invitation, you are not allowed in." The security guard at the late stage of Qi training at the door stopped him and asked in a polite tone. Although he was Baijia's security guard, he was not allowed to enter. He will take advantage of Baijia's name and boss him around. After all, he also understands that there are many powerful monks among the people coming and going. If he conflicts with Baijia, he will not stand up for his little security, so naturally he should speak more politely. "I am Xu Ji, a student of Xianling Taoist Academy. I accepted the task assigned by Baijia and came here specifically for this purpose." Xu Ji directly explained the purpose of his visit and stood quietly at the door, waiting for the security guards to pass the message up one level at a time. .

Soon, a majestic middle-aged man in black robe came out of the manor. The security guards around him were slightly stunned when they saw this middle-aged man, but then they quickly reacted and faced the middle-aged man. The man bowed and saluted, calling him the head of the family.

The head of the Bai family? !

Xu Ji was also slightly shocked. He did not expect that he was just here to set up a formation, and that he would actually attract the heads of hundreds of families to meet him in person. However, after all, he was also a true cultivator of foundation building, so he did not have to deal with the security guards around him. The head of the Baijia family bowed and saluted, but he just cupped his hands and said, "I have met the head of the Baijia family."

"Hahaha, little friend Xu Ji is out." The head of the Baijia family laughed, "My name is Baili Hai, and I am the father of Bai Muxin. Since little friend Xu Ji is my daughter's senior brother, it is natural to call me the head of the Baijia family. When you see someone else, just call me uncle."

"Uncle." Xu Ji cupped his hands and answered fluently.

Baili Hai's smile grew a little thicker: "So, if I still call you little friend Xu Ji, it would be a bit out of line. How about I call you Xiao Ji in the future?"

"Uncle, it's up to you." Xu Ji nodded indifferently. He didn't really care about this kind of title. After all, Bailihai was Baimuxin's father and his elder, so he naturally didn't care about such a title. .

"Okay, okay, Xiao Ji, let's go in and chat." Baili Hai smiled and took Xu Ji into the manor.

Even in the central area of ​​Haoyuezhou Mansion, where every inch of land is precious, Baijia's manor is extremely splendid and grand in scale. The magnificent landscape scrolls outlined with blue calligraphy in the gate are particularly attractive. There are many villas in the courtyard and the fresh and elegant waterscape layout. It is unassuming but full of vitality, and the interior decoration of the main building is even more exquisite. The long corridors are interspersed with galleries, and you can casually see the ukiyo-e under the paint. The delicate beauty is lingering.

Arriving at the special reception room, Bailihai first sent someone to serve two cups of good spirit tea, then stepped back and asked Xu Ji: "Xiao Ji, why did you come to Baijia this time?" thing?"

Although the news passed by the guard before was that Xu Ji had taken over the tasks assigned by Baijia, Bailihai did not remember any tasks assigned by Baijia that could be handled by Xu Ji, plus the relationship between Xu Ji and his daughter. Due to the special relationship, Baili Hai is more willing to believe that what Xu Ji said just now is just an excuse and he has other things to do with him!
Could it be that he came to propose marriage to me? ?
Looking at Baili Hai, whose eyes were vaguely expectant, Xu Ji felt a little inexplicable. It was just a task of setting up a formation. Is it possible for the dignified head of the Bai family to be so excited? But just thinking about it suddenly made Xu Ji realize that today is different from the past. Even the task of arranging the second-order gravity array has been pending for an unknown period of time. Now that he has taken it on, it is inevitable that he will feel a little excited.

Xu Ji nodded with a smile and said: "This time I accepted the task of setting up the second-order gravity array issued by Baijia, so I came here specifically to set up the array for Baijia."

The smile on Baili Hai's face froze slightly, that's it? ! Did you deceive yourself, the head of a hundred families, out of a mere task of setting up a second-order gravity array? ! Do you still think that some big event brought Xu Ji to Baijia, just to complete a formation task? !

But Baili Hai reacted quickly and asked Xu Ji incredulously: "Xiao Ji, are you saying that you can deploy a second-order gravity array?"
