Chapter 1143: Missions for a Holy Son!
Jody stared at the woman, who possessed an incredible aura and seemed above anyone else, and spoke respectfully, "Holy Lord Yue Hua, the man Yue Zhong who was with us, and had triggered the image of a dragon and tiger during his initiation had already been taken away by the Holy Lord Tian Dou from the Central Temple, and joined them."
The beautiful woman was precisely the Holy Lord Yue Hua, in charge of the floating mountain of the Northern Temple. Her combat strength was astonishing and was the highest authority of 15 different human empires.
Her brows furrowed, as she spoke in a strong tone, that revealed her dissatisfaction, "Jody, since you’re on good terms with Yue Zhong, why didn’t you invite him to join our Northern Temple?"
To be able to trigger such a phenomenon during the initiation ceremony, it was a rare occurrence, and such an expert was definitely a peak talent. As long as he did not perish, he was sure to have a bright future.
Of the 5 heads within the Holy Heavens, 2 of them had also caused similar phenomenons when they had first entered.
If Yue Zhong could be taken in as part of the Northern Temple, then when he reached the Type 9 realm, their strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
Jody chuckled bitterly and explained himself, "Ma’am, I had wanted to bring him. However, the Holy Lord Tian Dou appeared personally to invite him, there was nothing I could do too."
To receive the invitation personally from one of the important figures of the Holy Heavens, it was impossible to reject. It was especially so for those with no background. If they were to offend a Type 9 powerhouse, then it would be difficult to traverse the Holy Heavens in the future.
Holy Lord Yue Hua sighed deeply, as her jade-like hands waved to tear space apart and she stepped through it, "What a pity! I was late just by a step!"
Lina asked, "Jody, what should we do now?"
Jody fell in silent contemplation, "Let’s head back to the Northern Temple."
Having made a decision, the group quickly left.
On the other side, Yue Zhong’s party stepped out of the spatial tear and arrived on the floating mountain that belonged to the Holy Lord Tian Dou.
Holy Lord Tian Dou pointed at the crystal palace on the peak of the mountain, saying, "This crystal palace is called the Tian Dou Palace, my living quarters. There are 8 mountain peaks behind it, where 8 of your senior brothers are currently residing in. The 9th peak shall be called Heng Yue Peak, and that is where you will reside."
Yue Zhong took a look and could sense the immense energy emitting from the peak. With joy and excitement in his heart, he replied, "Yes!"
Holy Lord Tian Dou then barked out in a low voice, "Xue Luo!"
A green spirit then materialized in front of Holy Lord Tian Dou, forming a human-like demon, with a green face and long, sharp canines, "Master, Xue Luo is here!"
Holy Lord Tian Dou ordered, "Go take these ladies to Heng Yue Peak, and arrange for their accommodations."
Xue Luo replied swiftly, "Yes! Master! Ladies, please follow me."
Dong Yu Yao and the other 2 followed Xue Luo away towards the Heng Yue Peak.
Holy Lord Tian Dou brought Yue Zhong towards his own crystal palace.
Under his lead, they came to a beautiful pavilion made out of crystal, surrounded by a lake filled with fragrant wine. The air was thick with an intoxicating scent, and within the lake, there were strange Mutant Beasts, even a few mermaids swimming within.
The 2 of them sat down, and 2 beautiful mermaids shot out from the lake, landing beside the 2 of them, their fish tails transforming into legs. They looked no different from any beautiful ladies, as they each held a jar of wine, as they poured out a cup for the Holy Lord Tian Dou and Yue Zhong.
Holy Lord Tian Dou waved his hands and a number of 1000-year lotuses shot out from the lake, landing on a jade plate as he casually took one and bit into it, offering some to Yue Zhong with a smile, "Eat up, these lotuses taste decent."
The 2 mermaids stared at the 1,000-year lotuses, their eyes filled with expectation. These lotuses were precious, formed from the essence of this wine lake, not only were they delicious, there were the miraculous effects of washing and tempering one’s bones and marrows to have a qualitative change. If those 2 Type 6 mermaids could eat one, there was a chance to evolve to the Type 7 realm.
Yue Zhong took one piece and bit into it, and immediately, a powerful taste of wine was released into his mouth, and as it entered him, a clear energy coursed through his body, shaking his mental faculties slightly.
Holy Lord Tian Dou chuckled before a silver card flew out and landed in Yue Zhong’s hands, "This is an identity token representing a Divine Envoy. From now on, you are a Divine Envoy of the Central Temple."
He then pointed to thin air, as a number of detailed instructions appeared, "In order to become a Holy Son of our Central Temple, these are the missions you’ll have to complete. Here, there are a few mission, you can pick 5 of your choosing."
Although he could also directly transmit the details to Yue Zhong’s sea of notification, it was considered an offensive thing to do.
When Yue Zhong glanced through them, he realized they were all extremely detailed, with some requiring a few death-defying tasks like killing 3 groups of Type 8 powerhouses. One of them was especially special, the moment that task was completed, one could become a Holy Son.
It was to charge into the Man-Eating Divine Temples, as well as the 10,000-Devil Altar and kill a half-step Type 9 powerhouse.
Within any of the powers, a half-step Type 9 powerhouse was important, once one was killed, it would be a huge loss to the faction.
If Yue Zhong could take down one from the Man-Eating Divine Temple or the 10,000- Devil Altar, that could prove that he was not a spy from the foreign races.
Yue Zhong’s gaze flashed, as he chose 5 missions, one of which was the assassination of a half-step Type 9 powerhouse from those 2 enemy factions, "These are my choices!"
When he first entered the Great God World, he might not have been a match for a half-step Type 9 powerhouse. However, he had since risen by 2 small tiers, and already possessed the confidence of dealing with one.
There was a look of admiration in the gaze of the Holy Lord Tian Dou. He grabbed out and those 5 missions formed into a card, before handing it to Yue Zhong, "Good! These are the information on the missions. Once you’ve completed them, you will have completed the rites to the Master-disciple relationship. I will then impart all that I know, to you!"
One’s mantras could not be passed on so easily, although Holy Lord Tian Dou was appreciative of Yue Zhong, he had to test him as well, to see if Yue Zhong was sincere about joining the Holy Heavens.
Once Yue Zhong completed those tasks, his hands would be stained with the blood of foreign species, he naturally would belong to the Holy Heavens.
Yue Zhong was not surprised, as he replied respectfully, "Yes!"
Holy Lord Tian Dou was an efficient man, once he handled everything, he let Yue Zhong leave.
When he returned to Heng Yue Peak, Yue Zhong took out his identity card and went into the network, "Let’s see what privileges does a Divine Envoy have?"
Inside the Holy Heavens, there was a network that encompassed the entire world, allowing the inhabitants to communicate.
When Yue Zhong logged on, he was instantly swarmed with numerous notifications, "What amazing capital. This virtual network actually covers the entire human race, allowing all 108,765 human kingdoms to be linked up. As long as one has a Holy Heavens identity card, they could use the network to communicate."
The network reached all human cities, and each human kingdom was like a transmitting station.
However, only those of the highest authority could make use of the system. Ordinary folk did not know they were living under the surveillance of such an extensive network.
As a Divine Envoy of the Holy Heavens, Yue Zhong’s authority within the network was decently high. He could easily investigate any person below his level of authority, digging up everything from their past. If he wanted to find someone, such a power was incredibly terrifying.
Yue Zhong quickly glanced through the information, before he turned his attention to the exchange system, and soon, a list of items appeared in front of his eyes.
"Type 9 Mutant Beast Blood, one vial: 100 million contribution points required. (only Divine Envoys and above can exchange.)"
"Type 8 Mutant Beast, Alive: 2 billion contribution points. (only Elders and above can exchange.)"
"Type 8 Mech Armor: 1.5 billion points. (only Elders and above can exchange.)"
" written by Type 9 expert Huo Lin: 10 billion contribution points. (only Holy Sons and above can exchange.)
"Life Fountain Water, one bottle, allows one to transform their bones and marrows. If a Type 7 powerhouse consumes this, greatly increases chances of breaking through to the Type 8 realm: 500 million contribution points. (only Divine Envoys and above can exchange.)"
"..."
Yue Zhong glanced through it roughly, and could already make out many heavenly treasures. Not only were they expensive, but they also required certain statuses to purchase. With Yue Zhong’s current status, there were still many items he could not exchange for.
For example, the written by the Type 9 powerhouse Huo Lin, Yue Zhong wanted that badly, however, he did not even possess that many contribution points and his identity was not high enough to authorize that purchase.
