Chapter Thirty-Six: Inner Gate Mission

  As for the words of having no desires, Ye Tianfan had an expressionless face, obviously not taking it to heart. These things that will happen in the future are not worth considering now.

  Ye Tianfan excitedly said to Ba Tian and the others: "Ba Tian, now each of you has made a profit! At least several tens of thousands for each person!"

  "Yes, with this Spirit Stone, I can do a lot of things and exchange it for some elixirs that I need. My cultivation will definitely make great progress then, and by then, who dares to bully me?" Ba Tian said excitedly, clearly still holding back his anger from being beaten up earlier, while the others looked at him with grateful eyes.

  "Now that we've won the bet, can you give us our winnings? I'm really looking forward to it." Ye Tianfan said with a smile to the person hosting the gambling session.

  I'm not a blessing to the family, but a curse. The host of the gambling den thought to himself, but on the surface, he spoke politely: "Not at all, I'll give it to you right away, I'll give it to you right away." After all, the person standing in front of him was someone who could even defeat a mid-Golden Dan stage cultivator.

  Ye Tianfan and Ba Tian several people got the Ling Stone, walked away happily. The person in charge of the gambling house went back to settle accounts, found that he hadn't lost much, only a few thousand Ling Stones, was overjoyed, and was even more grateful to those who had bet on Ye Tianfan. If it weren't for the fact that there were enough people betting on Ye Tianfan, he would have lost badly.

  Ye Tianfan returned to the center of the house with great joy, after all, he thought it was just a meaningless thing, winning didn't have any benefits, the only benefit was to make a name for himself, but what he hoped for was to keep a low profile.

  As for losing, it's something that hasn't even been thought of. After all, letting a Jindan stage cultivator and a Yuanying stage cultivator already counts as quite embarrassing. If they lost, then there would be no need to live. If an ordinary person were a Yuanying stage cultivator, they absolutely wouldn't participate in this kind of competition. Only Ye Tianyi's youthful recklessness would lead him to do so.

  Ye Tianfan hadn't forgotten the purpose of coming from the outer gate to the inner gate. He had come to the inner gate to study the secret manual, so Ye Tianfan decided to go and take a look tomorrow to see if there were any suitable inner gate tasks for himself. After all, in the sect, to some extent, it was more important than spirit stones.

  The next morning, Ye Tianfan arrived at the place to receive his task. The pavilions here, regardless of size, momentum or decoration, were much better than those outside the gate.

  Ye Tianfan walked in and looked at the inner gate attendant who had posted the task, his heart couldn't help but feel a wave of surprise, because this attendant was actually an early-stage cultivator of the Split Spirit stage.

  However, this cultivator obviously didn't want to expose his cultivation level and controlled it at the middle stage of Yuan Ying. When Ye Tianfan saw this man with a face full of wrinkles and white hair, he thought of his grandfather's appearance, thinking that when he had time, he would definitely go back to see his grandparents, and also showed great respect for this divided spirit cultivator.

  As for why this cultivator wants to hide his cultivation, Ye Tianfan won't go into details. After all, everyone has their own secrets, and being too concerned about these things doesn't have much significance.

  Ye Tianfan walked up to the attendant and said, "Attendant senior, I'm here to receive a task. May I take a look at the Task Jade Slip? I'd like to choose one that suits me."

  The old man glanced at Ye Tianfan, threw a jade slip to him and said: "Choose a task that suits yourself, after selecting it, mark it with your own divine consciousness, remember you can only choose one at a time." Apparently, there was also a precedent for taking several tasks at once in the inner sect, so the executive added the last sentence.

  Ye Tianfan felt regretful that his plan to take on a few more tasks had fallen through, but he didn't say anything and instead sank his consciousness into the Jade Slate to watch.

  Ye Tianfan found that these inner door tasks were much more difficult than the outer door ones, and the time limit was also much longer. Some even required several years to complete, such as guarding the spiritual stone veins for the sect.

  Of course, the differences are not just these. The biggest difference is that these tasks are no longer limited to the internal forces of the entire sect, but most tasks need to be performed in the outer periphery of the sect.

  As for the tasks outside the sect's sphere of influence in the other two major sects on Tianqi Star, they must have a Yuan Ying period cultivation base to complete. In other words, the external tasks of the sect are basically only suitable for foundation-building and golden elixir cultivators to complete.

  Ye Tianfan carefully browsed through the tasks and found that three of them were most suitable for him, and the points he would get after completing each task were all around five thousand.

  The three tasks chosen by Ye Tianfan were to hunt and kill the golden elixir's early-stage demonic beasts. The golden elixir's demonic beasts had already possessed some spiritual intelligence, so they would build their own nests. When hungry, they would go out to hunt for food, and for the demonic beasts, the best food was humans. Therefore, Ye Tianfan's task was to kill these ferocious demonic beasts.

  Finally, Ye Tianfan made up his mind and decided to take the task that was about a thousand miles away from the sect.

  "Senior official, I'm about to mark the task that I was told to do on the jade tablet. I hope you can register it for me." Ye Tianfan handed over the divine awareness jade tablet and said respectfully.

  "This attendant sank his divine consciousness into the jade slip and took a look, saying: 'Youngster, you have quite some guts, actually daring to challenge a Golden Core initial stage demonic beast with your Foundation Establishment late stage cultivation. You should know that a Golden Core initial stage demonic beast is not much different from a Golden Core middle stage human cultivator, whereas your cultivation...'."

  Although the words behind were not spoken, Ye Tianfan already knew what he wanted to say, that his cultivation was too low and not suitable for completing such a task.

  "Kid, are you really sure about choosing this task? I advise you to change to another one. With your current abilities, it's hard to complete and whether you can escape or not is a problem. Even if you manage to escape, you'll be banned from taking on other tasks for half a year." The officer reminded him kindly.

  Ye Tianfan was not moved, still firmly nodded and said: "I have decided, I will not give up, thank you for the reminder, elder. I will be careful." Ye Tianfan's face showed gratitude towards the executor.

  "Alright, since you're so insistent, I won't say anything more. Just be careful, it's not a big deal if you can't complete the task, as long as you stay alive. Also, the deadline for this task is four months. If you can't complete it within four months, come back." The executor said with concern, clearly not wanting to see Ye Tianfan die young.

  Ye Tianfan thanked him and quickly left, because the old man talked too much and was so concerned about himself. Ye Tianfan worried that if he couldn't bear to deceive him, his cultivation would be exposed and it would be troublesome.

  As he watched Ye Tianfan leave, the attendant sighed and said: "I hope he'll be alright, it would be a pity if someone so young were to die."
