On the third day of Duan Chen's arrival in Qingshan City, the originally extremely hot weather suddenly began to turn cool, and before I knew it, autumn had arrived.

For a time, the whole Eastern Wilderness seems to be dyed with a layer of withered yellow color, whenever there is a mountain wind blowing, there will be pieces of dead leaves falling from the trees, being swept up by the mountain wind, embarking on a journey with the wind.

At this time, the sky was just dawning and the morning sun was rising, but in the school field in the city, there were already two figures fighting in the ring.

But seeing the shadows of guns in the ring, the sword light flashed, accompanied by the sound of gold and iron clashes, followed by the void sometimes blood light rising into the sky, sometimes the cold air was permeated, and the entire ring was frozen in an instant.

I don't know how long the two people in the ring have been fighting, but as time passes, the figure with a spear in hand has gradually been suppressed by the other person, and it has obviously fallen behind.

Soon after, all the shadows of the guns in the ring were swept away, and the figure holding the spear stood motionless on the ring.

Looking closely, I saw Duan Chen holding the Bloodthirsty Demon Spear, and the Bloodthirsty Demon Spear on his body, including the Bloodthirsty Demon Spear in his hand, was frozen in ice, only his head was exposed, and he could still speak.

And not far from it, Zhuge Xuanshuang was holding the Frost Sword, looking at Duan Chen with a smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently curved an arc.

"I throw in the towel. Duan Chen shouted while using the golden pill mana to resist the frost sword intent that invaded his body.

When Zhuge Xuanshuang heard this, he immediately waved his hand and shot out a blue light, which sank into the ice crystals on Duan Chen's body, and the latter immediately melted, turning into wisps of white mist and dissipating in midair.

"It's cold. Duan Chen couldn't help but shudder, then looked at Zhuge Xuanshuang and asked, "How do I feel that your Frost Sword Intent is even stronger than the last time we fought." ”

"That's because you've become stronger, if I don't increase the strength of the Frost Sword Intent, I may not be able to freeze you. Zhuge Xuanshuang opened his mouth to explain.

Duan Chen couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "In this battle just now, how much strength did you use?"

"You really want to know?" Zhuge Xuanshuang asked as he looked at Duan Chen.

"Forget it,

If you don't even use half of your strength, it won't be too devastating. Duan Chen shook his head, and then stopped mentioning the matter.

At this time, I only heard Zhuge Xuanshuang speak: "Speaking of which, you have been in Qingshan City for three days, I think it won't be long before the above will arrange a task for you, I estimate that there is a good chance that you will sneak into the Eastern Wilderness with others, looking for the destruction of the Soul Devouring Demon Array arranged by the Demon Clan, or harassing and intercepting the team of the Demon Clan's transportation materials." ”

Hearing this, Duan Chen couldn't help but ask in his heart, "Is this task mandated by the above?"

"Not bad. Zhuge Xuanshuang nodded and said: "In different palaces on the front line, if there is a task arranged above, we must carry it out, but you don't have to worry, generally the difficulty of the task assigned from above is determined by personal strength, and some impossible tasks will never be assigned to disciples with insufficient strength." ”

Duan Chen couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then asked, "There should also be a reward for this mission, right?"

Zhuge Xuanshuang nodded and said: "This reward is naturally there, after all, you can't let people work in vain, as long as you can complete the task, you can get the battle merits of the task reward, and then use the battle merits to exchange for various treasures in the military treasure house." ”

"This military treasure house is led by our two major forces of Beiyuan Immortal Palace and Tianhang Temple, and it is connected to the treasure houses of the major forces themselves, and there are countless internal treasures, the treasures that our Beiyuan Immortal Palace has can be exchanged in the military treasure house, and the treasures that we do not have in the Beiyuan Immortal Palace can also be exchanged in the military treasure house. ”

"Take the Xingchen Sand that you needed to refine the Natal Spirit Treasure last time, there is no one in the Ten Thousand Things Pavilion, but there are many in the military treasure house, all of which were contributed by major forces. ”

Duan Chen exclaimed: "No wonder Senior Sister Fan and they all ran to the front line, it turns out that going to the front line still has such benefits." ”

He originally thought that Fan Xueyi, Liu Tianming and others rushed to the front line, firstly, they were ordered by their division, and secondly, they wanted to sharpen themselves through battle, but now it seems that this may not be the case.

Obviously, in order to attract their disciples to take the initiative to participate in the war, all forces have indeed put a lot of hard work into all aspects.

"In fact, the use of war exploits is not only to exchange for treasures, but also to use them

The ratio of the contribution points exchanged for our Beiyuan Immortal Palace is one to one, that is to say, the combat exploits we have earned on the front line can also be used when we return to the Beiyuan Immortal Palace in the future. ”

Zhuge Xuanshuang continued: "And in order to attract more disciples to participate in the battle, the above tasks, the front-line mission rewards for the battle merits, at least thirty percent more than the contribution points rewarded by our Beiyuan Immortal Palace mission. ”

"At least three percent more?" Duan Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he suddenly had a bold idea in his heart.

Since this combat merit can be exchanged for contribution points, and the combat merit rewarded by the frontline mission is at least thirty percent more than the contribution points rewarded by the outer palace mission.

Then they may consider establishing a station in Qingshan City, allowing some powerful members of the Reverse Immortal Alliance to come over and practice, and earn battle merits at the same time, and then return to the Beiyuan Immortal Palace to cultivate with the help of the cultivation environment of Wanling Mountain.

Of course, after all, the front-line battlefield is different from other places, and there are many crises, so he still needs to discuss this matter with Nangong Yao and them through the outer palace disciple token.

Next, Duan Chen asked Zhuge Xuanshuang about the front-line mission and the recent casualties of the front-line monks before he separated from him and returned to the room alone.

After returning to the room, Duan Chen sat down cross-legged on the bed, and then raised his hand and put it in front of him.

I saw that on the back of his palm, there was a faint frost sword mark, and he was accidentally injured by his sword qi when he was fighting Zhuge Xuanshuang in the ring.

Fortunately, Duan Chen's cultivation of the Nine Yang Demon Body was strong enough, and Zhuge Xuanshuang's subordinates were merciful, otherwise, it was estimated that he would have seen blood at that time.

"I didn't expect that without using the power of ghost possession** and totem, the gap between me and Xuanshuang was so big. ”

Duan Chen looked at the frost sword marks on the back of his hand that gradually disappeared, sighed lightly, and then moved his five fingers, and only after seeing that there was no impact did he put his mind at ease, and then silently recalled the situation of fighting with Zhuge Xuanshuang in the past few days

In the three days that he came to Qingshan City, Duan Chen fought Zhuge Xuanshuang three times in total.

And as a result of these three encounters, Duan Chen lost without exception.
