Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 171 Invitation

After returning to his room, Li Zhen found that his room was still a little small, which made him want to move to a higher-level room. However, he had only been in school for too short a time. Regardless of whether he could defeat the students above him, just challenging the older students with his current status was enough to make people feel provocative.

Not to mention the floors above, even the third floor where he was, could only be inhabited by those who had reached the foundation-building level of true cultivation.

"Forget it, let's consider it after I build my foundation!" He finally gave up the idea of ​​changing houses.

He opened the morning class video and reviewed the lessons he had not learned.

In fact, the effect of teaching through video is very poor. When teaching in person, some techniques that influence the mind can be used to make it easier for students to master the knowledge they need to learn.

But the video does not have such an effect. That is to say, Li Zhen has good learning ability, and with the help of the 'Jingchen Qingling Pei', watching the video once is almost equivalent to the effect of ordinary students attending classes on site.

He looked at the time and realized that since he was watching the video at a faster speed, it actually took him less than two hours.

Only then did he discover that there was new information on his identity bracelet. It was Yi Xueer inviting him to participate in a special mission.

Yi Xueer is the only female cultivator among the special recruits. Since the last time they dealt with each other, they have only had occasional contact.

The main reason is that Li Zhen often goes to the demon country world, and although Yi Xueer has already reached the foundation-building stage, her strength is still too immature. When she performs hunting missions, she needs the protection of an experienced foundation-building cultivator.

Li Zhen was somewhat curious about the special missions. The missions he could currently accept were the ones chosen by Aoki University’s intelligent system based on his abilities.

Special tasks cannot be displayed in the task list at all, but are released through specified methods.

Li Zhen replied to Yi Xueer through his identity bracelet, asking about the time of the special mission to see if she could still participate.

Yi Xueer replied quickly and sent the meeting place, which was in a leisure area at Aoki University.

Li Zhen rushed to the leisure area and saw Yi Xueer from afar. There were five students beside Yi Xueer, and the six of them were chatting about something.

"Li Zhen is here!" Yi Xueer stood up and greeted him with a smile when she saw Li Zhen coming.

Li Zhen smiled and nodded in response.

"Are you Li Zhen?" A two-meter-tall burly man stood up among the other five people and said with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.

"Captain Duan, share the task with Li Zhen!" Seeing that the burly man had a wrong attitude, Yi Xueer hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

Captain Duan frowned slightly. To be honest, he didn't want to take newbies to do the mission, mainly because the newbies would bring unknown troubles to his team.

Bringing Yi Xueer alone this time was already a burden, and now Li Zhen had to be added to the mix. He naturally felt uncomfortable.

Yi Xueer has a very strong background in Xiyuan Group. Although Captain Duan is not too afraid of her, he does not want to offend her.

In addition, Yi Xueer invited Li Zhen to participate in the mission through an order issued by the top management of Xiyuan Group, and Captain Duan could not refuse either.

Although Captain Duan could not refuse, it was normal for him not to give Li Zhen a good look.

He suppressed his anger and shared the task with Li Zhen.

Li Zhen looked at the mission information through his retina. This was a gathering mission, which required collecting a second-level elixir called Yinma Guizhi.

A collection mission has become a special mission, which means that this collection mission is somewhat unusual.

"Before heading to the Demon Kingdom, I need to remind you that you must not leave the protection during the mission time, and you must not rely on your physical training strength to rush over and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the monsters!" Captain Duan said in a deep voice.

"I will follow Captain Duan's orders!" Li Zhen hesitated slightly, but he also wanted to see the fighting methods of the foundation-building team, so he chose to agree.

Except for Yi Xueer, the other five are all true foundation-building cultivators, two of whom are in the middle stage of foundation-building, and three are at the peak of the early stage of foundation-building.

The early stages of foundation building are different from each other. For an early stage of foundation building like Yi Xueer, her strength is at the bottom among all true foundation building practitioners. To advance from this step to the late stage of foundation building, there is at least a dozen years of cultivation gap, and this is still the case when one has good spiritual roots and sufficient resources.

"That's better!" Captain Duan waved his hand and said.

He stood up, and the other four students followed suit, and flew into the air without even saying goodbye to Li Zhen.

"Let's follow!" Yi Xueer gestured to Li Zhen and said.

Li Zhen followed, and after flying for a distance, he recognized the direction he was heading, which was the direction of the space crack leading to the high-level fortress. He was about to speed up to catch up, but found that Yi Xueer's flying speed was a little slow.

I also saw Yi Xueer flying very seriously, and it was obvious that she was not very proficient in flying.

Although a true practitioner of foundation building can leave the ground without using any magical tools, this is not flying. Flying still requires a lot of time to practice.

Yi Xueer's flying skills can only be considered acceptable. Considering the skills and secret techniques she needs to learn after building her foundation, it is remarkable that she still has time to practice flying.

Li Zhen suppressed his flying speed and maintained the same speed as Yi Xueer.

When I descended from the air and arrived at the hall of the space crack, I saw Captain Duan and others were already waiting there.

"Let's go over there!" Captain Duan ordered calmly.

Although he didn't curse, his disdain was almost obvious.

"It's just a mission with the team. I asked for this mission!" After Captain Duan and four students passed through the space crack, Yi Xueer saw that they were no longer in this world and complained.

The reward for this mission is very good, and Yi Xueer came here specifically. Through participating in the mission, Li Zhen saw the strength of Xiyuan Group.

But Captain Duan ruined her plan, making the mission experience no longer perfect.

Li Zhen heard Yi Xueer’s complaint, he smiled and entered the space crack.

When he appeared again, he was already in a high-level fortress, and Yi Xueer followed him.

"I heard that something big happened in the high-level fortress. Master Wu was seriously injured, which may affect his promotion to the Nascent Soul stage!" Yi Xueer said softly.

When Li Zhen heard that Master Wu Ao was injured, he thought that the 'Wind-Calling and Moon-Chasing Dragon Beast' was also injured. How could he not know the reason why Master Wu Ao was injured?

"We can't fly this time, we have to go over the ground!" When they arrived at the Demon Kingdom, Captain Duan became more serious and gave orders in a deep voice.

Through a flight at Aoki University, he realized that Yi Xueer and Li Zhen's flying ability was extremely poor. If an accident happened, they would not be able to protect themselves. It would be safer to walk on the ground.

Captain Duan strode forward, and the others followed behind him. Once they were out of the high-level fortress, his speed increased dramatically, and his four companions caught up.

"The speed of a second-level body refinement cultivator is not weak. I can only rely on external forces!" Yi Xueer said embarrassedly, and then she took out a talisman and stuck it on her leg.

With the help of the talisman, she immediately caught up with Captain Duan.

Li Zhen smiled. The speed of a second-level body refinement cultivator on the ground was naturally quite good. He exerted force on his feet, jumped up, and when he landed again, he was nearly twenty meters away.

Soon he came to Yi Xueer's side and kept his speed the same as Yi Xueer.

Led by two cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building, the aura from them was enough to scare away weak monsters, so this journey did not encounter much trouble.

When they arrived at the 100-kilometer boundary, Captain Duan gave a look to the other four companions, meaning that they should be more careful from now on.

The four companions spread out and protected Li Zhen and Yi Xueer in the middle.

The team continued to move forward, this time at a much slower pace.

"After experiencing a beast tide, there are too few monsters here!" Captain Duan felt a little uncomfortable after advancing for a distance without encountering any second-level monsters.

"This is just perfect, so we don't have to encounter powerful monsters!" another student shook his head.

"Cheer up, danger always comes when you are careless!" Captain Duan repeated the reminder.

He took out two spiritual weapons, one for attack and one for defense. The offensive one was a flying sword, and the defensive one was a shield. This was also the most classic configuration in the fairyland.

The other four companions also took out their spiritual weapons, all of which were two spiritual weapons, one for attack and one for defense.

The further they go, the more likely they are to encounter second-level monsters. However, the strength of the second-level monsters here is only mid-level second-level, which is still within the team's response range. As long as they are not ambushed by the second-level monsters, they can completely kill them.
