Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 679 - 286: Advancement, Dragon Transformation Fruit Acquired, Might of the First Female Cultivator (Part 2)

"Fellow Daoist, it’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I didn’t know this was your seclusion place. I will leave right now, truly sorry!"

As soon as he spoke.

The Duster, his Lifebound Spiritual Artifact, had already whirled out from his body, sweeping towards the approaching figure in midair.

Buzz!

Countless yellow threads shot out, transforming into a gigantic net ten feet high, blocking the front of him.

However.

In the next moment.

A thunderous boom resounded.

Three rolling Divine Thunders fell from overhead:

"Damn, I’ve been tricked!"

The opponent was using a diversionary tactic.

In that hurried moment.

He found it unavoidable.

He could only use his mind to withdraw the giant net of the Duster up into the air with a thundering boom as the Divine Thunder struck down.

Crackling.

The giant net was blasted to pieces.

However, since the Duster was a Tier Three Spiritual Artifact, it remained undamaged, just as Tian Clan Leader felt he had narrowly escaped:

"Roar!"

An Extreme Cold Demon Chant sound wave engulfed him.

In that momentary lapse of consciousness.

Buzz!

Six Soul-Annihilating Needles shot towards his face.

Even though Tian Clan Leader was a Purple Mansion Cultivator, he snapped out of his stupor almost instantly and moved with his mind.

Ding-ding-ding!

The silver bell blocked all the Soul-Annihilating Needles:

"Something’s wrong!"

At the same time.

A life and death crisis suddenly gripped his heart.

His pupils contracted.

Before Tian Clan Leader could react to the source of this crisis, a sharp pain erupted from his foot.

Immediately after.

With a ripping sound!

An arrow transformed from Purple Qi Divine Light pierced through his entire body from his foot, shooting out from the top of his head.

Bang!

Heavy and lifeless, Tian Clan Leader fell to the ground, eyes unclosed.

Spending his life hunting geese, he never expected to fall into such a trap today, leading to his death and the disintegration of his Dao.

Even in death.

He never knew whose hand he had died by.

The recent battle seemed lengthy, but in reality, it was over in just a few breaths.

The blood mist dispersed.

Fu Changsheng’s figure flashed and appeared.

At this moment.

The mask on his face glimmered with Spirit Light, a vortex forming, subsequently sweeping the head of Tian Clan Leader on the ground into its swirl.

"Hmm?"

Fu Changsheng was taken aback.

He remembered never accepting the task to intercept Tian Clan Leader.

What’s going on?

He directed his mind into the mask, only to see lines of text in the Task Hall’s mirror:

"Completed assassination of North Huai Prefecture’s Eighth-Grade Tian Family Patriarch task, received reward of twelve hundred Contribution Points, promoted to Orange-level Assassin"

Twelve hundred Contribution Points?!

Does that mean he can directly exchange for the Thousand Kui Jade?

With the Thousand Kui Jade.

His "Great Derivation Technique" Third Layer could be cultivated to completion, opening the Niwan Palace, becoming a Half-Step Purple Mansion.

Without hesitation, Fu Changsheng immediately wrote in front of the mirror:

"Exchange for Thousand Kui Jade"

The mirror trembled slightly.

Then lines of text appeared:

"Orange-level Assassins can only exchange Spiritual Objects below Tier Three, but as an exception for successfully completing a task two tiers above, an exception can be made for you once.

Additionally.

At your current tier, you can select three Red Assassins on your own.

After advancing to Yellow-level Assassin, you can participate in the Shadow Sect’s branch selection for Outer Disciples, keep striving, and hopefully, we’ll meet one day."

Evidently.

This Shadow Sect has strict hierarchy systems.

With different tiers, the rights obtained also vary accordingly.

According to this structure, advancing to Yellow-level Assassin allows participation in the branch outer disciple selection, highlighting that joining Shadow Sect isn’t easy:

"Truly an ancient sect!"

Fu Changsheng developed some anticipation.

Simultaneously.

The mask transformed from its original red to orange.

The vortex appeared again.

This time.

Four boxes appeared; as they opened, three black boxes contained three red masks, and the last box held the long-desired [Thousand Kui Jade].

Fu Changsheng’s gaze fell on the black masks:

"Select three subordinates?"

There was no time limit for this, so Fu Changsheng didn’t rush, deciding to first handle the scene.

With a wave of his sleeve, the storage bag of Tian Clan Leader on the ground floated towards him. With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he found that the most conspicuous spot in the storage bag held the box containing the [Dragon Transformation Fruit]. With this [Dragon Transformation Fruit], there was a certain chance for the Cyan Python to awaken its bloodline, evolving into a Flood Dragon, and potentially breaking through to Tier Three.

Becoming his first Tier Three combat power Spirit Pet.

Apart from the [Dragon Transformation Fruit], the storage bag also had tens of thousands of Low-grade Spirit Stones, and even several spiritual materials for making Tier Three talismans:

"Haha, not bad at all, there’s even material for making [Spirit Storage Talisman]."

If the [Spirit Storage Talisman] is successfully crafted, the talisman nurtured within it can promote from Tier Two to Tier Three, a crucial trump card for someone yet to break through to the Purple Mansion.

Additionally.

There was also a Tier Three Spiritual Artifact Duster.

In total.

The value far exceeded hundreds of thousands:

"Truly, crime begets wealth."

Fu Changsheng sighed, planning to have Runzhi modify the Duster slightly before gifting it to the clan members.

At this moment.

A familiar mechanical voice rang out in his Sea of Divine Sense:

"Ding"

"You have acquired three spots for entering the Shadow Sect for the clan, additionally obtained a Tier Three Spiritual Artifact, various Tier Three spiritual materials, and received fifteen hundred Clan Contribution Points"

Soon after.

The contribution points on the panel rapidly updated to five thousand three hundred ninety-six.

Looking at the increased contribution points, Fu Changsheng’s face grew even more delighted, but this wasn’t a time to delve into these details.

With a wave of his sleeve.

The lower half of Tian Clan Leader’s cadaver was tossed directly into the Second Layer of the Cloud Ring Purple Immortal Tower, primarily intended for feeding the Tier Two Late Stage Spirit-devouring Insect, Xiong the First:

"Hopefully, after consuming this cadaver, Xiong the First can break through to Tier Two Peak"
