Chapter 35

In the system's exchange function, although spirit stones can be used, in reality, they must be exchanged for life energy to be effective, which is actually a great loss. Therefore, Huang Yu did not exchange the 20 medium-grade spirit stones for cultivation.

"Is there any other way to obtain cultivation techniques besides exchanging?" Huang Yu asked.

"There is. Master can take on tasks, and the rewards from tasks can also include cultivation techniques. However, such tasks are generally very difficult and not easy to complete," Lulu said.

"What kind of tasks are there?" Upon hearing that he could obtain techniques through tasks, Huang Yu quickly followed up.

Regardless of the difficulty of the tasks, this was at least more cost-effective than using spirit stones for exchange. Moreover, task rewards were usually extremely rich, so having tasks was the best option.

"Master, you need to think carefully. To obtain cultivation techniques, you need to complete at least a B-level task. The cultivation techniques rewarded from B-level tasks are only human-grade. If you want better techniques, you need to complete A-level or higher tasks. If you can complete an SSS-level task, you can obtain a heaven-grade technique," Lulu said with a very encouraging tone, making Huang Yu's heart race.

Heaven-grade techniques, the temptation was too great. Cultivation techniques were very important; the speed of cultivation and combat strength were closely related to the techniques. If one person cultivated a heaven-grade technique and another cultivated an earth-grade technique, even if their cultivation realms were the same, the person cultivating the heaven-grade technique would have a much higher chance of winning in a fight.

However, Huang Yu was not a fool. He knew very well what SSS-level represented. C-level tasks were manageable, B-level tasks were somewhat difficult, and A-level tasks would require a great deal of effort, and success was not guaranteed. As for SSS-level tasks, he currently had no chance of completing them.

"Tell me, what A-level tasks can I accept now that offer cultivation techniques as rewards?" After some thought, Huang Yu asked.

"There is only one A-level task that can reward cultivation techniques, which is to kill ten first-stage mystic beasts within half a month," Lulu said.

Killing ten first-stage mystic beasts within half a month? Huang Yu thought about it. It was not impossible, but finding ten first-stage mystic beasts in Willow Forest Town was extremely difficult. Although Black Rock Cave had mystic beasts, it had already collapsed. Even if it hadn't, finding ten first-stage mystic beasts was not realistic; the entire Black Rock Cave might not have ten mystic beasts.

Therefore, it was impossible to complete this task in Willow Forest Town.

However, if he wanted to obtain cultivation techniques, he had to accept a task.

"Lulu, can I delay accepting this task?" Huang Yu thought about it. He needed to leave Willow Forest Town, and he needed at least half a month to prepare. Leaving Willow Forest Town was inevitable, but he needed to handle matters in Willow Forest Town before he left.

"You can delay for ten days. If you don't accept the task after ten days, it will be replaced, and the replacement task will definitely be more difficult," Lulu said.

Huang Yu was not surprised by this. After all, the difficulty of tasks was closely related to his own strength. As his strength increased, the difficulty of tasks would decrease.

"Ten days? That should be enough."

"Master, do you want to delay the task?"

"Delay, I will accept the task after ten days."

...

...

At night, just before midnight, Huang Dashan returned with his men. They were all injured and covered in blood, indicating that the battle had been very fierce.

"Master, I have not failed you. I have killed all the people from the Chen family, not a single one survived," Huang Dashan said, bowing to Huang Yu.

"Good, Old Huang, you have worked hard." Huang Yu quickly helped Huang Dashan up.

"How can you say I have worked hard? This is what I should do. Moreover, those scoundrels from the Chen family dared to attack our Huang family's jade mine. I wish I could uproot them completely. By the way, Master, we have killed so many people from the Chen family, we need to be cautious. I think Chen Hongqiao will not give up so easily," Huang Dashan said, somewhat worried.

"Don't worry about that, Old Huang. The Chen family is finished now. Apart from Chen Hongqiao escaping, I have killed all the Chen family members. Now, the Chen family only has some old, weak, and women, whom I have dispersed," Huang Yu said with a smile. "Moreover, I have shattered Chen Hongqiao's limbs. It won't be easy for him to recover completely."

"Really? Master, is this true?" Huang Dashan stared at Huang Yu in disbelief.

"It's true. I used a Primordial Spirit Talisman, which allows me to summon a third-stage mystic beast, the Long-armed Stone Ape, three times. I used it once in Black Rock Cave, once to deal with Su Tianhong, and the last time to deal with Chen Hongqiao." Huang Yu nodded. Using the Primordial Spirit Talisman to deal with Su Tianhong was a bit wasteful, but there was no other choice. Without it, he couldn't have resolved the crisis.

"Primordial Spirit Talisman? So, the mystic beast Master summoned was from the Primordial Spirit Talisman." Hearing Huang Yu's words, the Huang family guards were puzzled. The Primordial Spirit Talisman was something they had never heard of.

However, Huang Dashan knew about it. He had read about it in an ancient book. It was a jade talisman, an ancient jade talisman. Master obtaining such a magical jade talisman indicated that he had a great encounter. Moreover, Huang Dashan noticed that Huang Yu's cultivation had reached the eighth layer of the innate realm, a speed that was astonishing. Even the prodigies of major sects would not have such a terrifying cultivation speed.

"It's a pity. If Master really used the Primordial Spirit Talisman to deal with the Su family, it would have been a waste." Huang Dashan sighed. After reaching the Essence Core Realm, he could deal with the Su family without any problem, but the Su family's actions were too sudden.

"There's nothing to be pitied. After all, it's an external item. The most important thing is to improve one's own strength. Now that the Chen family has been destroyed, the Su family, although I haven't gone there yet, is no longer a threat with Su Tianhong dead. Everyone, rest well. Tomorrow, we will head to the Su family and destroy them. Willow Forest Town will belong to our Huang family. At that time, I will reward everyone with half of the Su family and Chen family's assets based on your contributions," Huang Yu said loudly.

"Master, long live!"

"Master, we are not tired. Let's go and destroy the Su family now."

"Yes, Master, let's go and completely destroy the Su family now."

"Willow Forest Town is ours."

"Master, give the order."

"We are not tired."

"Charge the Su family."

Hearing Huang Yu's words, everyone was extremely excited, as if they had been injected with a stimulant, forgetting their pain.

The Su family and the Chen family were one of the three major families in Willow Forest Town, slightly stronger than the Huang family. Although they did not know the exact wealth of the Huang family, it was definitely a huge amount. Now that Huang Yu said he would reward them with half of the Su family and Chen family's assets, they were naturally very excited.

People die for wealth, and birds die for food. With such a generous reward, there would be brave men. Although they had all been injured in fierce battles, hearing Huang Yu's reward plan, they were all invigorated.

Seeing this, Huang Yu was also stunned, not expecting them to be so excited.

In such an atmosphere, it would be impossible to stop them.

This was also good. When the Su family attacked the Huang family, they almost mobilized all their forces. The people left to guard the Su family were few. Although the Huang family's guards were all injured, if they all mobilized, along with himself and Old Huang, there should be no problem.

Thus, Huang Yu said, "Alright, since everyone is so eager and full of fighting spirit, I will agree to your request. All Huang family guards, listen to my order. Follow me to the Su family and turn their world upside down."

"Roar..."

"Charge!"

"Charge!"

For a moment, the shouts shook the sky.

The entire Willow Forest Town could hear it.

The ordinary residents were all frightened and afraid.

"March!"

Huang Yu waved his hand, and with a single command, hundreds of Huang family guards marched toward the Su family in a grand procession.

At this time, the Su family was left with only Su Guang's uncle, Su Tianlin, and his brother, Su Hai. They did not participate in the attack but stayed to guard the Su family, waiting for news from Su Tianhong.

Su Tianlin was not weak, reaching the peak of the innate realm, and Su Hai was also a small prodigy, slightly inferior to Su Guang in talent but reaching the seventh layer of the Qi Cultivation Realm, which was quite good in Willow Forest Town.

"What's that noise?" Su Tianlin had been uneasy since his brother Su Tianhong left.

At this moment, Su Tianhong's wife, Lady Han, walked over and said to Su Tianlin, "Uncle, I have been uneasy. Your brother hasn't returned yet, and I am worried."

"Don't worry, Sister-in-law. Your brother's cultivation is extremely high. No one in Willow Forest Town can harm him. Besides, he has the Black Rock Guard protecting him. He will be fine," Su Tianlin said, though he was more anxious inside. "Sister-in-law, go rest. Your brother will be fine."

After Lady Han left, Su Tianlin sent someone to gather information.

The previous shouts made Su Tianlin extremely uneasy.

"Charge..."

Before he could leave, the Su family's main gate was smashed open, and countless people rushed in.

The guard who was about to go out to gather information was beheaded before he could leave.

"Bad," seeing this, Su Tianlin shouted in alarm. His brother Su Tianhong was probably in grave danger.
