Chapter 424: You guys finally arrived.

No way, again?

Upon seeing this task, Gu Yang couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed. This time it was even more extreme, a Celestial Immortal-level Demon Beast suppressed in the Immortal Prison. The level of danger had shot up by several stars.

What the hell is wrong with these powerful forces?

Catching a demon beast, why not just annihilate it directly? Why suppress it?

He didn’t believe it, there could be no way that the Heavenly Court wouldn’t have a method to annihilate a Celestial Immortal-level demon beast.

In the end, he was the one who had to clean up the mess.

“Upon completion of the task, you will be rewarded with one Immortality Pill. Failure will result in banishment to the Mortal Dust.”

An Immortality Pill, what is it this time?

No matter whether he’s willing or not, if he wanted to stay here, he could only complete this task.

Although the task was dangerous, it should be safe according to the results of the simulation.

He stood up and walked out of the Barracks Tent, seeing the old and young standing outside.

Old Daoist Yu Ming greeted, “High Immortal, I have received orders to assist High Immortal in suppressing the demon beast of the Immortal Prison.”

Good, with one more Hollow Void realm helper, he might come in handy at a crucial moment.

“Let’s go.”

Gu Yang said, leading them towards the Divine Weapon Hall.

…

It wasn’t Yu Ming’s first time in the Heavenly Court, he had stayed here for a few years when he was a Nascent Soul late stage cultivator under a senior.

He knew naturally that the Heavenly Court would occasionally assign tasks many of which require manpower and are assigned to temporary divine soldiers like them.

How long one can stay depends on luck.

Maybe, just after a few months of arrival, one may encounter some extremely difficult tasks and be unable to complete them, forcing to leave the Heavenly Court.

He considered himself quite lucky, he had stayed here for a good five years and built a solid foundation during that time.

Over thousands of years, there have been hundreds of Guang Yuan Sect disciples who came to the Heavenly Court. Only three have achieved the Hollow Void realm. Each of them stayed in the Heavenly Court for several years.

This shouldn’t be a coincidence.

Plus, even if you fail a mission and are expelled from the Heavenly Court, you can return after a period of time and become a divine soldier again. However, the merits you had earned before would be erased.

From this, one can see that the Heavenly Court is really short of people. Even those who were eliminated before can become divine soldiers again.

This time, the task was to suppress the Immortal Prison, which was considered one of the most difficult tasks.

Those qualified to be suppressed in the Immortal Prison were not simple characters, they were at least Celestial Immortals to start with.

In the ancient times, a wisp of breath from a Celestial Immortal was enough to shake a Human Immortal to death.

If one is careless, there may even be a danger to their life.

In the history of the Guang Yuan Sect, there were two unfortunate individuals who were killed while carrying out tasks.

These two unlucky ones, one died in the Heavenly River, the other died in the Immortal Prison.

And these two places are considered by the Guang Yuan Sect as the most dangerous places in the Heavenly Court.

Of course, the more dangerous the task, the more generous the reward.

If this task is successful, one can gain an Immortality Pill.

This is one of the most precious rewards in the Heavenly Court. After consumption, one’s Cultivation Level can be promoted by one rank out of the blue.

If a first-level Celestial Being takes it, they will directly advance to the second level.

If a second-level Celestial Being takes it, they will advance to the third level.

If it’s a third-level Celestial Being, then they will advance directly to the Hollow Void realm.

Old Daoist Yu Ming was able to break through to the Hollow Void realm because he had once consumed an Immortality Pill.

Over thousands of years, hundreds of Guang Yuan Sect disciples have entered the Heavenly Court and completed countless tasks, but only four Immortality Pills have been obtained in total.

It is stipulated in the Guang Yuan Sect that after getting the Immortality Pill, it must be given to the Sect. In the future, anyone who breaks through to the third-level Celestial Being will be eligible to consume this Immortality Pill.

This is the secret as to why the Guang Yuan Sect has become the most powerful sect in the Kong Mingtian.

This Immortality Pill, each person can only consume one. If you take it again, it will have no effect.
