【Event disappears!】
"really!"
Wang Yang sighed.
Although I had expected it, I was still a little disappointed.
But this is the normal situation. The continuous twists and turns in the previous mission are accidents.
The task of hunting gophers requires only the fourth level of Qi training to receive the cultivation level. It would be unbelievable for him to perform such a task in one foundation period and if something unexpected happened.
Just like a college student doing elementary school questions, it is impossible for him to make a mistake unless he deliberately does it.
In the simulator, except that there is no simulator, everything else is the same as himself, so there is no chance of an accident.
"The mission of hunting rats lasts for one month. In other words, it only takes one month to increase the cultivation level by sixteen points. This improvement speed is quite slow!"
Calculated at this rate, if he wanted to advance to the second level of foundation building, it would normally take six years, assuming there were no bottlenecks.
Even if each simulation rewards cultivation, it will still take him three years.
Three years to advance to a level is actually not a slow process, but for Wang Yang who has quickly advanced to the foundation building stage, it is still a bit uncomfortable.
"Let's just make do with it for now! Wait for a while and see if we can take on a few more missions!"
The Ten Palaces are different from the Spirit Transferring Sect. One person can take on several tasks at the same time, as long as you have the ability to complete them.
In the past, his cultivation level was low and he did not dare to wander. Now that he has established a foundation, Wang Yang feels that as long as he is careful, there should be no big problem.
the next day
Da da!
In the dark and smelly sewer, Wang Yang frowned, stepping on the muddy ground full of water, and walked forward step by step.
Around him, six willow leaf-shaped silver flying knives, like fish, flew up and down flexibly, just covering his whole body.
He had snatched these flying knives from human traffickers. He originally wanted to sell them, but now he just needed them for a mission, so he refined them.
The six flying knives belong to a set. Although they are only low-grade magical weapons, under the control of his divine mind in the foundation-building stage, even if they are used to kill in the later stage of Qi training, they are still wrong.
Creak! Creak!
In the passage ahead, there was an unknown chewing sound.
Wang Yang's eyes emitted a faint light, which was a strange phenomenon caused by the operation of spiritual eyes.
Not far away, a small beast was eating something with its head lowered.
"go!"
Wang Yang did not hesitate, and with a wave of his hand, a willow-leaf flying knife shot into the darkness with a whoosh like a sharp arrow.
Jiji!
The little beast had no time to dodge, and was stabbed through the chest, letting out a piercing scream.
Wang Yang waved his hands together, and Liu Ye's flying knife flew back to him again with a whoosh.
He walked to the place where the little beast fell and took a closer look.
Beside the muddy puddle, a gray mouse the size of a wild cat was lying, twitching non-stop. On its chest, there was a wound half a finger wide, and blood was constantly pouring out.
This big gray rat is the gopher, a common first-order monster in sewers.
"Is this thing really edible?"
Wang Yang controlled his spiritual power and lifted the gray-furred gopher in front of him.
Looking at the dirty and disgusting hair on the gray gopher's body and the unknown carrion biting in its mouth, he felt disgusted on his face.
"Whether I can eat it or not, I won't eat it anyway!"
Wang Yang raised his hand and used the Water Bomb Technique to condense a ball of water, briefly rinsed the gray-furred gopher, put it into the storage bag, and then continued to move forward.
Although gray-haired rats are demonic beasts, they are not worth much. Only fifty or sixty of them can be exchanged for a low-grade spiritual stone.
But for the low-level cultivators who clean sewers, this is already a considerable profit.
Wang Yang doesn't have to care about this income, but he can't act too independent.
After all, on the surface, he is also a low-level cultivator struggling to survive, not a powerful foundation-building stager.
Due to his status as a disciple of the Spiritual Movement Sect, he had to hide everything he did, which was really a bit frustrating to say the least.
Otherwise, with the talent and strength he has shown, he would be very popular if he joined that force.
Wang Yang kept walking forward according to the route he had drawn when he entered. Whenever he noticed something unusual, he would just throw a flying knife at it without even bothering to use his spiritual thoughts.
The sewers are basically filled with first-order monsters, the most common of which are gophers. Occasionally there are some snakes, bats, corpses, stray cats, wild dogs...
Of course, there are more poisonous bugs of all kinds. If you are bitten by one, you will definitely not feel comfortable.
Many practitioners who enter it will bless themselves with self-protection techniques and dare not stop.
Not only is this job low-paying, it's also not easy to do. If the mission wasn't in the royal capital, few people would be willing to take it.
Poof!
Under the control of Wang Yang, Liuye Flying Knife pushed all the way across and strangled it directly, no matter what it was. Except for the corpses of gopher-like monsters, he threw away everything else.
When he was about to reach the meeting point, Wang Yang put away five of the flying knives, leaving only one flying beside him, and the speed of hunting monsters also slowed down a lot.
He stayed for a while and then heard footsteps in other passages before continuing to move forward.
There were ten people carrying out the cleaning task at the same time, and Wang Yang was the third one to arrive.
Among the ten people, eight men and two women were all between the fourth and sixth levels of cultivation, and their ages ranged from twenty to sixty.
