Chapter 5: Challenging The Graphorn
"I won!" He Yi Ming couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Although when he was in Heaven Academy, He Yi Ming had once formed a team with several of his classmates to kill an Early Stage of Spirit Realm beast.
However, the graphorn are some of the hardest monsters to defeat in the Early Stage of Spirit Realm.
But now, thank too Beef Noodle luring out the graphorn earthshatter skill and feeding so hard that the beast underestimated him, he was able to kill a graphorn solo! Of course, without resorting to using his backup plan.
"gaaaaa!" However, at this moment, the graphorn eyes flashed a blood-red, knowing that this is the end of the road, the graphorn mustered its last ounce of strength to deliver a kick toward the exhausted He Yi Ming!
He Yi Ming, caught off guard, hastily gather the remaining of his spirit energy and cross his arm to protect himself! Even then, He Yi Ming was knockback several tens of meters away, breaking a couple of trees in the process!
"Shit, I was way too careless!" He Yi Ming spit out a mouthful of blood and strenuous stood up.
If it hadn't been for him putting up his guard at the last second, that kick, even though might not have killed him, it will have definitely dealt some serious damage!
The graphorn final counterattack almost kicks the life out of him!
After kicking away He Yi Ming, the graphorn, fatally wounded, struggles for a bit before breathing its last.
"Holy shit, that was amazing!"
"Master is such a beast! He solo the graphorn with barely any problem!"
"This...this battle was so awesome! I was constantly on the edge of my seat! Not only that but the graphorn Final Counter was just breathtaking!"
....
The players were left stupefied, it was only after He Yi Ming stood up did they finally react to what has happened and started to sing their praise.
"Disciples, this is the power of the graphorn!"
"With your current cultivation, you're not the graphorn opponent, even I could get injury by the graphorn retaliation if I get careless!"
"This is the end of our expedition! The area around this part of the mountain base is open up for further exploration but be mindful to avoid direct confrontation with the graphorn!"
"Ok, that's all I have to say, now then, let drag the corpse of the graphorn back to the sect!"
.....
He Yi Ming calmly finish his speech, giving the players the feeling that this was all part of the script.
Not in a million years, can He Yi Ming say that "Due to my lack of combat experience, I almost f*** up in the end.", right?
If he did say that, then where is his dignity as their Sect Master?
"I give this fight a score of 101 points out of 100 possible points, the one extra points is for our Master handsomeness!"
"F***, no matter how much you flatter the NPC they will not give you a damn!"
"Is the meat of this graphorn eatable? Should we drag it back to the sect and make some hot pot?"
"What a glutton! This corpse is full of valuable materials, VALUABLE MATERIALS, do you understand? Look at these teeth, they are the perfect material for creating spears, we can also use the bone to create even more deadly weapons!"
"Then I dare you to not eat the hot pot I'm making! Dew it, you don't have the balls!"
"Bro, forgive me, I was wrong!"
"So the weakness of the graphorn is it underbelly, latter I'm going to end it by sliding under it and slicing open its abdomen! That will be another job well done!"
....
While most of the players were chattering in excitement, several players join forces to transport the graphorn corpse back to the Sect.
As soon as they return to the Sect, He Yi Ming ordered a few players to go and grab the kitchen utensils.
After all, even though players' bodies were made by the system but in the end, it is still an ordinary human body, they still need to eat, drink, and rest otherwise they will starve, dehydrate, or die from exhaustion.
Not only that, He Yi Ming can't just let the graphorn he kill with so much effort go to waste.
"The meat of the graphorn is very nutritious, eating it will strengthen your muscle(increase strength) and make you more durable(increase Hp)!"
"The bone and teeth of the graphorn have little to no practical uses!"
"As for its hide, after the death of the graphorn, the hide quickly deteriorates due to the lack of spirit energy, in the end, it will provide less defense than when the graphorn was alive!"
....
He Yi Ming gave out a brief explanation on the graphorn drops before taking out some spices from his storage bag.
"Master, let me handle this, making hot pot is my specialty!" A player with the ID Divine Tongue immediately jumped out.
The player with the ID Divine Touge took out a rusty kitchen knife from god knows where and honed it a few times against a stone, sharpening the knife, and then he swiftly yet masterfully slice the graphorn into thins strip of meat.
Watching this, He Yi Ming began to wonder.
Did this guy come here to cultivate or did he come here to feast?
"Bro, I'll help you start a fire!"
"Bro, I'll help you cut some woods!"
"Bro, I'll help you eat~~"
....
More than a dozen avid foodies also got up and began to help out.
Seeing this He Yi Ming nodded in satisfaction.
A single graphorn should be able to last these players for the next few days, at least he does not have to be concerned with their foods or drinks for the time being.
The graphorn retaliation did cause He Yi Ming some injury, he needs some time to recuperate back to perfect condition.
"Friendly reminder, the host can divide up the mission and hand it over to your disciple! As long as the host disciples completed the mission, the completed mission will be added onto the host mission progress!"
At this time. the system prompted him again.
"Okay Okay Okay! I will post the mission! Sigh..."
He Yi Ming resignedly accepts, now that he thinks about it, the players are immortal, even if they were to be killed by the graphorn, they can just create a new character and start over again!
"Oh right, I also need to make a virtual currency to get these players to do my bidding, let just call it, Contribution Point!"
"Players can get Contribution Points by completing the mission I posted. Then when I get something good in the future (which is also useless to me), I can get the players to exchange for them using the Contribution Points I created!"
"This means that, without spending a single Spirit Stone, I can get the player to do my bidding, gaining something for nothing! What a wonderful plan!"
The more He Yi Ming thought about it, the happier he got.
So with another thought, He Yi Ming posted the first mission.
[Sect Mission: Bloody War With The Graphorns]
Goal: Kill a single graphorn and bring its corpse back to the sect square
Mission Reward: 100 Contribution Points.
Friendly Reminder, a player can repeat this mission as many times as they want.
After posting the mission, He Yi Ming entered his hidden chamber and quietly began to recuperate.
After He Yi Ming posted the mission, the players that were gathering around eating graphorn hot pot were stunned.
"Holy shit, it's here!"
"Killing a graphorn? Holy shit, is the first mission this intense?"
"F***ing hell, I don't even have a weapon! How am I supposed to fight a 4-meter tall beast barehanded?"
.....
The players were in chaos.
However, almost all of the players, without any hesitation, accepted the mission immediately.
At this point, Beef Noodle had also finished creating a new character.
"I will not accept this!"
"I will challenge it once again!"
Walking out of the portal, Beef Noodle appeared on the sect square, and without any further ado, he rushed down the mountain.
Less than 15 minutes later.
"Holy shit, MotherF*****, F*** those developers, what the F*** were they thinking!" Beef Noodle curse at the developer and walked out of the portal again, clearly showing signs of being instantly killed by the graphorn and having to create a new character all over again.
"Everyone, I got an idea!" Suddenly, a lad with the ID Stardust stood up and shouted to the other players.
"?"
The other players were all taken aback, what is this person trying to do?
