The Strongest Knight

Chapter 195 7 years

Since joining the mission team that Liu Wuying is in, Zhao Qinghe has been completing missions and gaining inspiration faster and faster.

Liu Wuying is experienced and has a good understanding of some niche knowledge about various mission objectives, and can often arrange their respective tasks well.

The task force will spend one month trying to complete the task, and then get about three months of training time.

Four months later, Zhao Qinghe was promoted to the third level of Yuan Jing Realm and learned the fourth and fifth minor Taoist skills - the skill of making fire and the skill of drawing water.

This speed of promotion further solidified the impression of Zhao Qinghe as a man of superior talent in the minds of the team members.

After learning these two Taoist skills, Zhao Qinghe no longer had to worry about eating raw food or dying of thirst wherever he went.

After the cultivation degree was maxed out, Zhao Qinghe was able to instantly gather a ball of flame the size of a washbasin with the fire-making technique that could only produce a tiny flame. The water-taking technique that was originally just a small ball of water also became a water ball the size of a washbasin, which was considered to have a certain degree of offensive power...

In two months, the Liuhua Sect's outer sect would hold its annual combat competition, but none of the five members of the mission team participated.

Although there are rewards in the competition, they are the prey of senior outer disciples who are at the seventh, eighth or ninth level of Yuan Jing.

Liu Wuying, who has the highest cultivation level among the five, is only at the fourth level of Yuan Jing, and is simply unable to fight against those senior outer disciples.

However, during the days of the competition, Zhao Qinghe still went to the competition platform behind the main hall with his teammates to watch the competition. He witnessed the combat power and fighting methods formed by the combination of the Five Elements Minor Taoist Magic and various Minor Taoist Magic used by the Yuan Jing Period cultivators.

After the competition, Zhao Qinghe devoted himself to cultivation again.

In the last month of the year, Zhao Qinghe successfully advanced to the fourth level of Yuan Jing and learned the art of driving objects. He could simply drive some light objects to move within a certain range.

Combined with the talisman-inducing technique, the talisman's attack range and shooting distance can be greatly increased.

In just one year, Zhao Qinghe went from being a beginner to the fourth level of Yuan Jing.

This speed of cultivation is something that only practitioners with excellent talents can achieve.

Among the outer disciples who entered the sect with Zhao Qinghe, only the most talented Liu Changsu made progress similar to Zhao Qinghe.

In the character team, Hua Xue and Hua Wenguang, both at the second level of Yuan Jing, have successively advanced to the third level of Yuan Jing. Hua Hao is said to be about to break through to the fourth level of Yuan Jing. Only Liu Wuying is still at the fourth level of Yuan Jing, looking worried all day long.

Zhao Qinghe didn't know how to persuade him.

In fact, Hua Wenguang and the female Taoist Hua Xue spent four years to cultivate to the third level of Yuan Jing. Their talents should be not much different from Liu Wuying's, and they are in the middle to lower level.

However, as time went on, the time span between each realm became longer, which made it seem as if Liu Wuying's cultivation progress was about to be overtaken by everyone else.

......

Accidents will happen.

On this day, Zhao Qinghe was practicing at home.

He still had some spiritual energy in reserve. Ever since he joined the task force, his spiritual energy had become more and more abundant. He even exchanged two offensive talismans from a disciple who had learned the art of talisman making for five spiritual energy talismans for one, just in case of an emergency.

"Bang, bang, bang! Junior Brother Qinghe!"

There was a hurried knock on the door, and the voice of Hua Xue, the only female Taoist priest in the mission team, came from outside the door.

Zhao Qinghe heard the anxiety in Hua Xue's voice, frowned slightly, stood up and walked out of the house, and opened the gate.

Outside the courtyard, Hua Xue, whose already snow-white skin turned even paler because of worry.

"Junior Brother Qinghe, it's bad. Senior Brother Liu Wuying failed to hunt the Earth Yuan Bear and was injured. He...can't hold on any longer!"

Zhao Qinghe's expression changed slightly. "Did he go on a mission alone? Where is he now?"

"In the outer gate deacon hall!" Hua Xue replied.

"Let's go." Zhao Qinghe started running towards the outer gate deacon hall.

These outer disciples had never met each other before because they had no relatives or friends.

But they had no relatives in the sect, and they gathered together because of the sect's mission. After helping each other for a year, they had already become the closest people in the sect.

Liu Wuying, as the initiator of the task force, is experienced and everyone in the team, including Zhao Qinghe, has received his kindness and guidance.

When he heard that Liu Wuying was in trouble, even Zhao Qinghe felt depressed.

When Zhao Qinghe arrived at the outer sect deacon hall, he saw that some outer sect disciples had gathered outside the hall to watch.

However, most of them had sad faces and hoped that Liu Wuying could hold on. After all, everyone has the chance of encountering accidents while performing tasks.

When Zhao Qinghe and Hua Xue stepped into the hall, they first saw Hua Hao and Hua Wenguang. In addition, there was another person standing next to them. He was the master of the Outer Gate Deacons' Hall - Liu Changle.

When Zhao Qinghe walked over, he saw Liu Changle shaking his head.

Looking at the lifeless figure covered by black cloth on the stretcher on the ground, who else could it be but Liu Wuying?

"As fellow disciples of Junior Brother Liu, you can divide up his belongings among yourselves."

"The remains of Junior Brother Liu can be buried in the cemetery in the back mountain."

Liu Changle sighed and disappeared in the hall.

"Wow, wow, wow..." Hua Xue's crying sound came from beside me.

Zhao Qinghe sighed secretly, stepped forward and lifted a corner of the stretcher, "Everyone, let's go to the back mountain."

The four men each lifted one corner and walked towards the back mountain.

When the disciples outside the hall learned that Liu Wuying was dead, they sighed and dispersed.

This kind of thing happens every month.

Zhao Qinghe and four others carried Liu Wuying's body to the back mountain, where there was an old farmer guarding the area. Zhao Qinghe borrowed a hoe and began to dig a grave for Liu Wuying.

The four people took turns digging, and soon a grave was dug.

Zhao Qinghe lifted the black cloth and saw that Liu Wuying's body was pale and his chest was in a strange arc. He must have been hit head-on by the powerful Earth Yuan Bear and was seriously injured.

Zhao Qinghe closed Liu Wuying's lifeless eyes, and several people moved Liu Wuying's body to the cemetery and buried it.

No tombstone is required.

There is a strong spiritual energy in this blessed land, and the bodies of the monks will decompose soon after being buried.

This cemetery might have decomposed a lot of spiritual energy and integrated it into this blessed land.

"Junior Brother Qinghe, this is Senior Brother Wuying's last wish before he died. Take this letter and some valuables to his family."

"Among the four of us, you are the only one who is most likely to be promoted to the Three Flower Realm at the fastest speed and gain the full power to enter and exit the mountain gate. Can you help deliver this letter?" Hua Hao handed over a small package.

Zhao Qinghe nodded and took the package. "Leave it to me."

Liu Wuying left behind eight spirit stones and twenty strands of spiritual inspiration.

Originally, Liu Wuying planned to collect ten spirit stones to buy a bottle of elixir that could increase his cultivation and break through his current realm.

Moreover, this goal is about to be achieved.

Now, his body is dead and his soul is gone, which only adds to the sorrow.
