The Mission Hall

Raven took care of those trash but it was a casual matter for him so he arrived infront of the Library quickly .

The building was huge and too wide . I wonder how many books are there in total ? Hehe.. I cannot wait anymore !

There was only disciple who was in charge of issuing the permit to enter inside the library.

Well Elder Blaze .. no need to inform him because it's good that there will no Elder who can spot me reading all the books in the library . I'm glad that only a Level 9 Qi condensation disciple is in charge because he will not be able to see anything as he had not awakened Divine Sense yet. Hehe.. Luck is on my side !

Hello fellow brother , I'm Raven and I was told that I can have access to all the books in the library for five hours !

Raven politely greeted the little chubby disciple who had bored look on face and handed his Sect Token to him .

Hmm.. so you are the infamous Raven who is renowned to be one of the beast geniuses Sect has recruited ! Well , let me tell you the basic outline then . You can read any book that you want because your token can be used to bypass the sensing and trap formations placed on each floor . Remember that you only have five hours as you will be instantly burnt to ash if you are one floors other than one after the five hours limit !

Of course Raven had good idea about the danger of Formations so he knew this . He did not even need 5 hours to read 100000 books anyway because he will only flip through them at high speed anyway ! His endurance has increased too much so this little task was nothing to Raven .

Raven could 4 floors inside . He was not mesmerized by the sheer amount of books because according to his calculations based on the number of bookshelves, there were only about 20000 books inside . Hehe.. but I'm sure that all these books contain much more precious data than the books in Silverwind City Library. Let's do this !

Raven dashed at full speed and took out the first two books and casually flipped through them at too fast speed . Not even one second passed and he already was on other books .

After four and half hours Raven was lying on the floor of 4th floor but he had a grin on his face . To think that the 4th floor only contained 7 books and they were all Earth rank Martial skills or cultivation techniques! Haha.. I must thank Elder Blaze later because I would have definitely regretted it if he had not informed before my time was up .

Raven used the last of his time to store the books back on the shelves neatly and went out of the huge building . Unless there are any more hidden books which is unlikely, I will never step inside this Library again !

Raven have you completed any sect mission already?

Raven looked at the serious look on the disciple's face and thought that this was an important matter . So he decided to listen properly .

No brother , why did you mention this all of a sudden ?

Haha.. I knew it ! You see the Sect has one strict rule that every outer disciple must complete at least one mission per month . If you have not completed any missions in two months then you will face punishment from the Sect and many disciples who are new and do not know about this rule , get expelled all the time . So my advice is that you cultivate diligently for another month and little more before taking two missions from the Mission Hall and complete them in time to avoid punishment. You are a genius so most probably you will not face expulsion but the rules are strict thus you will not be able to completely avoid punishment!

Raven was startled because he had really not heard about such a rule . Maybe Blaze forgot to mention it . Raven sweated after imagining the punishments he could face . Thus he made up his mind quickly .

Brother , I have not asked for your name yet !

Tch.. finally you noticed ? Anyway I'm Brook and there is no need to thank me because I only informed you as you did not hear the rules completely before becoming an official disciple. Now go..

Brook was really an easy going person and Raven decided to befriend him because he liked this kind of people . Raven thanked Brook and immediately departed for the Mission Hall .

The building was located next to library and was bustling even though its night time .

Hmm.. maybe these disciples are the ones who have returned to submit their mission reports ! Well let's take a look and see if I can find missions with interesting rewards .

The hall had only floor so the ceiling was huge. On the walls , there were many notice boards and missions were inscribed on the jade plates hanging on the boards in huge numbers.

Mission - Provide 3 stalks of Fire Lotus herb.

Reward - 1000 sect points

So the sect points are the currency inside the sect then . This mission is of the highest difficultly available for Outer disciples and I can understand why . The Fire Lotus herb is only a Peak Level 2 herb which can used as a main ingredient for many Level 2 pills .

But these herbs only can be found inside extremely hot climates . And on top of that they are rare and usually a pack of Fire Bulls are guarding it . The usual strenght of Fire Bulls is around Level 5 Foundation Realm cultivator and the old ones can reach the strength of Level 7 too . Hmm... this means that accumulating sect points is really hard as such a difficult mission can only give 1000 points . Anyway , I will try to reach Level 5 Foundation Realm in one month time and then decide the missions I want to complete.

Raven formed a plan so he immediately departed the Mission Hall and went back to his residence to quickly start cultivating as he was pressured on time . To increase his chances of survival in the unpredictable outside world , it was best to increase strenght as much as possible. Anyway Raven had heaps of Foundation Qi boosting pills inside his inventory so reaching Level 5 in one month from now is not an impossible task at all .

Hehe.. so what if I lack in talent ? I have the peerless refining system and with good cultivation techniques , I will soon soar to heavens !

Raven thought and immediately started attracting Flame particles with his Divine Sense . Now he had reached Foundation Realm so he could absorb the energy directly from the air without letting it stick on his body . Thus cultivation became little easier than before although he could only say that because he felt no pain after absorbing one certain amount of energy at one time !
