YM778.TV Chapter 13: Chapter 13 - First mission
[Cultivation: Apex of Divine Transformation]
[Skills: Supreme Devouring Sutra (Perfection Stage), Sea Destroying Fist (Initial Stage), first layer of sword intent]
[Sacred Law: Mastery of the Five Elements (100%)]
[Points: 8920]
"Now this is a real panel, with lots of skills," Song Yang thought. When he saw the rest of the reputation points, he gave up buying ordinary level mystery boxes and said: "System, exchange for another 8000 Shura Palace tokens."
[Ding! Acquisition of 8000 tokens successfully completed, they are stored in the host\'s spatial ring].
Song Yang thought it would be more appropriate to have more tokens; after all, only 1000 tokens compared to most of the forces in the entire eastern region were like a drop in the ocean. And there was probably nothing useful for him in a common-level mystery box.
With this in mind, he spoke looking at the empty space around him "Shi Hu".
As soon as he finished speaking, the void in front of him opened up and a shadow emerged from it: it was Shi Hu, Commander of the Shadow Demon Legion.
With a wave of Song Yang\'s hand, countless tokens appeared on the ground. Then he said, "Order the shadow demons to hand over these tokens."
"Yes, Palace Master," replied Shi Hu respectfully, but he didn\'t leave.
Seeing this, Song Yang became a little curious and asked: "Anything else?"
"That, actually, we\'ve just received an assassination order," thought Shi Hu for a moment and reported back.
"So fast?" Song Yang was a little surprised. After all, although he had said that from today he would accept assassination missions, he only had 1000 tokens scattered around, which probably wouldn\'t be enough to receive a mission so quickly. Besides, in his opinion, most of the powerful forces didn\'t believe in Shura Palace.
He even thought about organizing assassinations of some powerful families or sects, as a warning to prove Shura Palace\'s capabilities.
But it seems that it wasn\'t necessary. Song Yang had clearly underestimated the people of these powerful forces.
"You don\'t need to report missions to me in the future, just order the shadow demons to carry them out directly" Song Yang was in mid-sentence when he remembered something.
At that moment, he was curious about how strong his current strength had become. He wanted to take part in real combat, and an assassination mission seemed like the perfect test.
As for his safety, he believed that with his current combat power, it would be practically impossible to defeat him, unless his opponent was a saint. Even if there were any unforeseen circumstances, having Shi Hu by his side meant that there was practically no danger.
With this thought in mind, Song Yang was about to pick up the token to check the mission, when the system\'s voice resounded in his mind:
[As the token is made by the system, the host can check the assassination missions directly on his personal dashboard]
"Oh?" Song Yang was a little surprised. It was the first time the system had taken the initiative to talk to him. Hearing what the system said, Song Yang couldn\'t help but raise his thumb as a sign of satisfaction with the system.
As soon as he opened the translucent personal panel, it really was as the system had said.
[Target: Chu Xuanzhe]
[Status: Young Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect]
[Cultivation: Early Stage of Soul Formation]
[Reward offered: 5 Heavenly Weapons, 100,000 high-level spirit stones]
[Location: Bihai Dynasty, Heavenly Sword Sect]
[Contractor: Patriarch of the Mu Family, Mu Jinzhou]
After looking at the mission details, Song Yang noticed a message that appeared:
[Does the host wish to accept this mission?]"
As well as accepting, he realized that he also had the option of refusing or renegotiating if the price was too low.
"Heavenly Sword Sect? Interesting," Song Yang smacked his lips.
He knew a bit about this Heavenly Sword Sect; its status in the Bihai Dynasty was equivalent to that of the Blue Lotus Sect in the Zhenfang Dynasty.
"But isn\'t it a bit far?" Song Yang frowned. The Bihai Dynasty was one of the five great dynasties of the eastern region, and he could imagine its enormous size. Even with his cultivation at the peak of Divine Transformation, he feared it would take him several days to get there.
"And besides, that price..." Song Yang couldn\'t help feeling a little angry when he saw this offer. "Just 5 heavenly weapons and 100,000 spirit stones?"
If one only analyzed it superficially, it would be an unreasonably high price to kill a simple cultivator at the early stage of Soul Formation.
But Chu Xuanzhe is not just any cultivator at the early stage of Soul Formation. Once Shura Palace carries out this mission, he will offend the entire Heavenly Sword Sect.
It\'s clearly not worth it for just 5 heavenly weapons and 100,000 high-level spirit stones.
But thinking on the other hand, Shura Palace doesn\'t have any other assassination missions at the moment, and he needs to prove to the world that Shura Palace has the ability to carry out assassinations.
Even if there were no such specific mission, he would choose some heir of a powerful force and assassinate him, thus offending some powerful force in the same way.
Now that a mission has come up, although the pay is average, offending a force by carrying out a mission and receiving something is better than simply receiving nothing and still offending a powerful force. With this in mind, Song Yang decisively pressed the accept mission button.
As soon as he clicked accept mission, Song Yang sent a message via the token: "Shura Palace accepts the mission. Within thirty days, the assassination will be carried out."
After accepting, he looked at Shi Hu next to him and said with a smile, "Shi Hu, it looks like we\'re going to the Bihai Dynasty."
Shi Hu clearly had no opinion; in his heart, there was only one thing: absolute loyalty to Song Yang. As long as Song Yang said something, that\'s what he would do.
So, before Song Yang\'s surprised eyes, Shi Hu, who was originally just a shadow, transformed into a human form.
