Chapter 639: Astonishing the Path of Array
Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi
The Hall of Mission was a mess, as everyone fell into a state of astonishment.
To know that normally, a perfectly ranked mission was an extremely difficult task. Yet before their eyes, so many perfect leveled missions were being created. The impact of this was undoubtedly harsh.
Especially when everyone realized how all these perfect missions were being carried out by the same person, everyone was even more shocked. They were shocked to a point of no retreat!
Even for those who didn’t know ancient arrays well, they understood the complexity and difficulty of a perfectly achieved mission.
Therefore, everyone here was in awe. At once, the name Xian Ling was heard by every ear and was resonating inside the Hall of Mission.
Slowly, everyone discovered something strange. All of the missions he was doing were very low ranked with very low rewards.
This made them very confused. They didn’t understand why an array master wouldn’t choose the high leveled missions and kept on taking on low leveled ones.
“This master sure is strange. Why doesn’t he take on higher leveled missions?”
“Yeah, could it be that he has the heart to help out us young cultivators with no background?”
“That is possible. No master would even glance at missions with such low contribution points.”
“That’s right, I think that is the case. This master sure is kind.”
Everyone discussed and chimed in. After thinking about it for a while, they finally concluded that this master was purposely trying to help out the less powerful cultivators.
This was the only conclusion that made sense to them. Or else why would a profound master be interested in these low leveled missions?
Even if he wanted contribution points, he should be going to the higher leveled ones. Since the rewards there were so rich people drooled at the sight of them.
Thinking about it this way excited all those specializing in arrays. They all began to toss in missions that they were having trouble with into the pool of missions.
What a joke. For such a knowledgeable master to be doing all the low leveled missions, if they don’t grasp onto this extremely rare opportunity, their lungs would turn green from regret.
Therefore, everyone began to submit their own missions and low leveled missions began to increase in number.
This made Ling Xian, who was still in his room, smile. Though all these simple missions had low rewards, to a newbie like him, it wasn’t bad.
Therefore, his brain worked in an even faster speed and he thought of new array designs as he read the prompt for the requirements.
One has to admit that he was truly insane.
Any other array master, even grandmasters, would have to put in a bit more thought and cannot analyze an entire situation in seconds. But Ling Xian had the inheritance of the Pioneer of Ancient Arrays.
Therefore, he could do what was unimaginable to ordinary people!
Just like that, Ling Xian crazily swept the low leveled mission board with a dominating attitude. All of his completed missions, without exceptions, were ranked to be perfect!
Therefore, everyone was in an even deeper state of shock.
Because Ling Xian’s speed was far too unbelievable. When these array designs were popping up, they didn’t think too much. But now that all of their concentration were on Ling Xian and they noticed his speed, they described him as heaven defying!
Finishing a mission within minutes?
No, he was designing arrays at one per second!
What the f*ck!
Just how insane was this master?!
Everyone was watching with their eyes wide. Then, voices of shocked and glee began to rise and enter everyone’s ears.
Without a doubt, all these people’s missions were completed by Ling Xian. To have acquired a perfect array design made them think how worth it everything was.
But, there was a saying that when someone is happy, there is someone who is sad. Though he had completed many missions, compared to the entire pool of available missions, they occupied a small portion. Therefore, the majority of the cultivators were still hastingly waiting.
Just as everyone was watching with their heads up, they realized that the mission board was no longer refreshing and there was no more cheering.
This meant Ling Xian had stopped.
“What is happening? Why did he stop? My mission hasn’t been completed yet.”
“You haven’t noticed? Perhaps that master was finishing missions at a speed that was too fast and ignored ours. If you count carefully, you’ll realize that he had completed 100 missions.”
“That’s right. One hundred is the daily limit anyone can complete in a day. In other words, this master can no longer take on missions today.”
“What! What kind of hellish rule is that! My fricken mission hasn’t been completed!”
The cultivators who sent in missions that have yet to be completed were almost crying. They didn’t think he had already finished 100 missions within such a short period of time. They really didn’t think he would reach the upper limit so quickly.
This made them angry but helpless.
At this, the senders of missions that Ling Xian had already completed felt extremely lucky.
Reality was that these people had guessed it, he had reached the upper limit of the day.
There was no real reason behind this. But there is a strange rule inside the Hall of Mission that nobody should accept more than 100 missions per day.
Therefore, he could no longer accept missions today.
This made him smile bitterly, but he was helpless.
After all, the rule was right there. Even the Supreme Headmaster Ji Qian Bai could not overwrite it.
“Pity. There were so many more low leveled missions but I cannot do them.”
Looking at the densely compacted information on the board, Ling Xian shook his head, feeling a little pitiful. To him, all of those were merely contribution points. Though not great in amount, if he can complete them all, he would have gained a handful of fortune.
“It looks like I can no longer do any more missions.”
Ling Xian softly sighed. He wanted to continue, because for one, the requirement for buying the Shang Qing Technique was far too high and he had to save time by doing everything he could.
For two, he felt like, despite these missions being low leveled, he was really sharpening his array skills, which made him feel interested.
What a pity that he had reached the daily limit and is unable to continue.
Therefore, Ling Xian stood up from his chair and decided to go back to his residence to rest. However, just as he marched forward, he had a thought and thought of the missions of the other divisions.
The rule of a person not being able to accept more than 100 missions was targeted against one single division. In other words, if he now look for missions with alchemy or crafts, he will no longer be limited.
Thinking about this made Ling Xian’s lips curl up and he revealed a joyous smile. Very quickly however, his brows furrowed. He didn’t want to expose how skilled he was with alchemy yet.
After all, he had just won the gathering of the alchemists. If someone somehow links this clone to his original self, then he will pay more than he will gain.
Therefore, he decided to look for missions with crafts.
“Let me try and see. I have nothing else to do. Perhaps I can complete some missions.”
Grinning, Ling Xian silently requested the screen for craft related missions. Immediately, a sea of missions related to crafts appeared before his eyes.
He had no idea just how much astonishment he brought everyone within minutes of following through with this mindless choice he made.
