When they heard that the little Taoist Priest of Shenxiao Palace was going to clean out all the evil spirits, the elders in the Presbyterian Church were very happy.
However, the banyan tree spirit is still the most mature and prudent.
"Taoist Master, you must do what you can. Those evil spirits are annoying us, but they are afraid of the empress and dare not invade the interior of the holy land. They can only cause trouble on the outside. Even if you ignore it for a while, it will not be a problem. You must put your safety first It’s important.”
Although it believes in Shenxiao Palace, this young Taoist Priest is too young. What worries it most is that young people are so angry that they find evil things that they can't deal with still show off their strength. It would be terrible if something goes wrong.
After Li Rui agreed on the matter, he took He Yang and left the Presbyterian Church.
At this time, the main mission has been updated.
[Stage 2: Exorcise and destroy evil spirits (level 3 difficulty). ]
[Mission goal: eliminate the entrenched evil things, Deep Cold Pond 0/1, Wuguang Cave 0/1, Huanghua Gorge 0/1. ]
[Limited time: 14:00:00]
[Task reward: experience value +54000x3, free attribute point +1x3, random quality strengthening materials x5x3, random quality consumable props x4x3. ]
This is just a five-star secret realm, and the rewards are not very good, but they will increase exponentially after increasing the difficulty. Even so, it is still not a lot.
However, He Yang was already very excited when he saw the list of rewards.
He was only level 21 when he came in. These experiences plus those from the opening mission just now are enough for him to rise to level 23.
Li Rui frowned.
The third level difficulty level of Laman is only worth 150,000 experience points. He is now level 26, and it will cost more than 200,000 to upgrade to one level. This is too far.
Five Star Secret Realm is really rubbish.
He cursed in his heart. After walking out of the Presbyterian Church, an unknown flower essence came forward and said: "Two Taoists, if you are tired from fighting evil spirits, please come back here at any time. I can restore your mana and treat your injuries." .”
This is a water spring NPC that can quickly restore its status, but it takes time to rush back from the mission location. Generally speaking, you can't go back and forth too many times because there is not enough time.
Although the task time limit is 14 hours, most people will try to complete the level within the first four hours. If it is delayed until dark, the monster's combat effectiveness will increase by a notch, increasing the probability of failure and death.
He Yang said: "We have to clean at least one of them before dark, right?"
Li Rui glanced at him: "There's no rush. If you're worried about not having enough time, you can go first, but my suggestion is, follow me closely."
He Yang wilted. He was only level 21 and he didn't dare to run around alone.
"But what do you mean by not being in a hurry?"
He didn't know either, but he didn't dare ask.
Li Rui said he was not in a hurry, but walked very quickly. He was not in a hurry to go to the mission location from the north, but first arrived at the Holy Land Village, where the Lin Jing lived.
"I read what the guide said. Next to the pond in the Holy Land, a willow tree spirit lost its money bag in Wuguang Cave. There is a branch line that can be connected."
"The Narcissus spirit in the center of the village wants to recover his brother's body."
"Help bring back a nest of yellow flowers from Huanghua Gorge."
"Go to the Deep Cold Pond and pick up a few cold stones from the island in the middle of the lake."
Li Ruifeng rushed through all the locations where the side quests existed, and after accepting them, he ran straight away without waiting for others to finish their sentences.
About twenty minutes later, He Yang felt his eyelids twitching as he looked at the task list full of more than a dozen branch tasks.
"Brother, are you picking up so many? Will there be time?"
He began to murmur in his heart, not to mention the random events encountered on the road, the branch lines alone would greatly extend the mission process.
There will be no loss if the side mission fails, but the targets of the side mission are all at the main mission location. Once accepted, it will change the composition of the monsters there, leading to encountering some difficulties that would not have been encountered originally.
In short, it takes more time.
Li Rui comforted him: "Don't worry, sharpening the knife will not waste time chopping wood."
"Right."
He Yang agreed subconsciously, and then the more he thought about it, the more questions he had.
its not right! Why does it look like your knife is being sharpened?
However, at this time, Li Rui had already rushed all the way to the northern part of the Holy Land. From here, to the northwest and east were Wuguang Cave, Shenhan Pond and Huanghua Gorge.
"Where should we go first?"
Ever since he entered the secret realm, He Yang felt that his intelligence was getting lower and lower, and he wished he had to ask which foot to put on first whenever he walked.
The main reason is that what has happened so far is a bit beyond his understanding.
How could anyone choose level 3 difficulty and then pick up all the branch lines?
What's more, the optional tasks before entering the door were delayed for a certain amount of time, which originally led to the reduction of the time limit.
Li Rui just answered like a normal person: "First go to Wuguang Cave, enter from the entrance of the cave, kill him, and then come out from the end of the cave. Then find the body of the Narcissus Jing brother from the northwest mountains, go to the Deep Cold Pond along the way, and go from the back Jump directly from the cliff to Huanghua Gorge, and don’t forget to pick up the aloe vera skin on the cliff.”
As he spoke, he had already started running towards the Wuguang Cave.
He Yang is a berserker himself, and his physical attributes are not low, and he can barely keep up.
Soon, the two arrived at a cave. This place used to be a mine. Many rhizome spirits worked in it. The excavated ore could be traded with Liang Ting, or they could be kept to cast their own daily necessities.
At first, when rumors of haunting spread here, the Presbyterian Council did not react immediately because the Peach Blossom Spring was protected by the Peach Blossom Empress, and it was difficult for evil spirits to form in general. They just thought it was accidentally lost.
However, later, as one monster after another disappeared, the mine director believed that it was really unsafe and went to the Elders Council for instructions. Finally, he agreed to let the miners withdraw, and then sent a large number of vine spirit iron guards into the cave to search for the source.
But they didn't come out in the end.
From then on, Wuguang Cave became a forbidden area.
Thinking of the background story of this place, He Yang couldn't help but swallowed: "Brother, are we going in like this?"
Li Rui thought for a while and said, "Do you have life-saving equipment or props?"
"have."
"Knead it, ready to use it at any time. Also, follow me closely. If you fall behind, you will die. Do you understand?"
He Yang was even more scared.
Seeing him like this, Li Rui felt relieved. In fact, even if he fell behind, he would not let the customer die in the cave. This was mainly to ensure that the other party followed closely, so as not to waste time in rescuing people.
"Now, get ready to run!"
After saying that, he rushed into the mine.
He Yang didn't dare to stay alone. In order to ensure that he followed closely, he even gave himself a provocation.
He rushed into the cave and saw evil spirits and living corpses before he went deep.
These are the souls of spirits. Different from the resentful souls of humans, their spirits have no fixed shape and are often a halo of mist. They hurt people by collision or shooting.
They can possess spirits, but they cannot enter human bodies, which invisibly reduces the difficulty.
The living corpses are also the living corpses of spirits, vine spirit guards armed with swords, but their bodies are riddled with holes, and they smell of decay everywhere.
"Believe in Third Uncle, believe in Li Rui, believe! He is a very powerful man. As long as I don't hold him back and provide a little help during the battle, I will definitely be able to reach the other side and strive to complete this cave within 4 hours." clearance.”
He Yang cheered himself up in his mind, took out his two-handed war hammer, and was about to approach Li Rui to fight side by side. Then he was dumbfounded when he looked up.
"No, why does he only attack monsters but not fight them?"
