Legend of the Monster
193 Chapter. Take Missions
At night, Ling Tian lay on his bed while thinking of some plan he would do to obtain the Star Spirit Grass. Just as he was about to close his eyes, Ling Tian sensed that Shen Tu Jiang with his friends was starting to move towards the direction of his residence.
"Hehehe ... These ants were already impatient to look for trouble with me," Ling Tian murmured softly. Then continued, "I'd better avoid them so as not to cause a commotion that made the people in this sect suspicious of me."
After saying this, Ling Tian instantly disappeared from his place and appeared on the branch of a tree in the courtyard of his residence. He quickly hid his aura so that they could not trace his whereabouts.
"Hmmm ... Where is he? Why did his aura suddenly disappear? Though I just sensed Ling Tian was inside his room," Qingxue said in a tone of astonishment.
"I feel the same way. Let's check it out first! Maybe he was hiding when he found out that we were going to visit him," Shen Tu Jiang replied as he continued walking into Ling Tian's residence.
"Mmmm!" Shen Tu Jiang's friends nodded simultaneously, then immediately followed him.
On top of the tree branch, Ling Tian sat down leisurely as he turned his head towards his residence.
"Reph ... If I were to become your parents, I would be ashamed to have children who lacked this kind of ethics and manners. Go inside someone else's house without permission." Ling Tian grumbled inwardly as he cursed Shen Tu Jiang and his companions.
Inside the Ling Tian residence, Shen Tu Jiang and the others continued to circulate their spiritual senses. Even though they had tried their hardest to find Ling Tian's whereabouts, they still could not find him.
Nalan Peng who still had a grudge against Ling Tian for not being able to catch him during the competition in Luan City, became even more annoyed. He immediately floated his kick at Ling Tian's room door which made the door instantly shatter into pieces.
They all entered into Ling Tian's room intending to examine him more thoroughly. Because from the beginning they sensed that the aura of Ling Tian's existence came from the room.
However, their search remains in vain. Because, the room was empty and clean as if Ling Tian had never lived in it.
"Aarrgghhf ... Where is this trash hiding?" nalan Peng.
"It looks like he has escaped using his movement technique, so it makes us too late to notice it. Whatever happens, we have to get the movement technique from Ling Tian's trash." Shen Tu Jiang affirmed with a fiery spirit, "Look! He managed to outwit all of us with his movement technique. Though his cultivation level was only at the first stage of the Diamond Star. Try to imagine if we are using the movement technique. For sure the results will be even better and will be very satisfying from what Ling Tian displayed."
"Yeah ... That's absolutely right. I was actually already impatient to learn the Ling Tian movement technique. Let's see what he does tomorrow. If there's a chance, we'd better catch Ling Tian and force him to give the movement technique." As he spoke, Ming Cheng showed an excited face as he imagined himself using Ling Tian's movement technique.
"I agree with you. We don't have to procrastinate too long. If Ling Tian manages to raise his cultivation level, I'm sure we will all be unable to catch up to him anymore" urged Nalan Peng. Every word he spoke contained great hatred towards Ling Tian.
"Hmmm ... All right, let's go back first! To catch a cunning trash like Ling Tian, a very mature plan is needed so that he can get into our trap," Shen Tu Jiang said.
"Mmmm!"
Calmly and very relaxed Ling Tian leaned his body against the tree trunk as if he did not care about the departure of Shen Tu Jiang and his friends. A plan to search for the existence of the Star Spirit Grass had also been thought of in his head.

The next day when the sun had shone brightly, Ling Tian walked towards the location of the gathering place of the disciples who wanted to carry out the mission of the sect. He wanted to see if there was a suitable mission for him to be able to gain access to a place that had a high probability of having a Star Spirit Grass in it. Because, according to the story from Wei Ziqing that the Star Spirit Grass discovered by her Master was in one of the valleys within the Poison Mist Sect.
Arriving at the location, Ling Tian immediately entered the building where all the procedures were carried out for the disciples who wanted to receive a mission. He saw some paper inscribed about the mission announcement affixed to the wall.
All missions successfully executed by the disciples would earn contribution points as compensation for them. It is these contribution points that will later be exchanged for the various resources they need to increase their cultivation.
There were some missions that required the disciples to come out of the sect such as capturing or killing Spirit Beasts. But this was not the mission Ling Tian wanted because he was looking for a mission within the sect.
Ling Tian continued to check the announcement listed on the wall. There he saw a mission to collect some poisonous Spirit Plants. This mission only has a small contribution point value so no one from the students is interested in taking it.
Ling Tian paid no heed to the number of points he would earn after successfully executing the mission. As long as the mission was within the sect, he would take it. Ling Tian then walked towards a middle-aged man who was sitting with his eyes closed.
"Excuse me, Elder! I will take that mission," Ling Tian said as he pointed to one of the announcements on the wall. Then continued, "It was a mission to collect poisonous Spirit Plants."
The middle-aged man moved his hands without opening his eyes. Two sheets of paper went straight out from his Space Ring and appeared on the table. Then the middle-aged man said in an indifferent tone. "Write your name here! Then take this paper. This is a list of all the Spirit Plants that you must gather immediately. You only have 15 days. If you can't finish it on time, then you won't get contribution points."
Regardless of the actions of the beak man, Ling Tian immediately wrote his name on one of the papers before him. After he finished, Ling Tian then took out another paper, which was a list of all the poisonous Spirit Plants he had to gather.
Without saying anything more, Ling Tian rushed away from the place because he knew that the middle-aged man who was the guardian elder of the reception hall of the mission would not have to bother to see him.
"Hehehe ... Apparently the ants wanted to come to this place as well." Ling Tian muttered softly while laughing softly as he sensed the aura of Shen Tu Jiang and his companions heading towards him. "Surely they intend to trouble me again. I had to keep avoiding them so they wouldn't interfere with my plan."
After saying so, Ling Tian dashed away from the mission reception hall. Upon sensing that no one was paying attention to him, Ling Tian immediately shot out very quickly towards the direction of one of the valleys that from the start had been his target.
