Chapter 252: The Third Mission

As soon as Yu Qing Qian led the group into the volcano, they were spotted by the Red-Feathered Gryphons circling in the sky.

Griffin cries echoed one after another, and the Red-Feathered Gryphons quickly swooped towards the group.

“Luo Xiao, stimulate the growth of the spiritual plants to entangle them.” After Yu Qing Qian finished speaking, she looked at Huo Li Ruo and said: “You hurry up and pick the Red Griffin Flowers, and we will deal with the Red-Feathered Griffons.”

“Alright!” Huo Li Ruo nodded, quickly protected his body with his spiritual plant armour, and jumped towards the Red Griffin Flower halfway up the mountain.

Yu Qing Qian took out her bow and arrows and shot an arrow at the swiping griffins. Wherever the arrow passed, Red-Feathered Gryphons fell to the ground, lifeless.

Luo Xiao quickly stimulated the growth of grass near the volcano, which continued to grow wildly. The grass vines quickly wrapped around the legs and wings of many griffins and quickly pulled them to the ground.

Mu’rong Qing and Xie Shu launched waves of mental energy attacks, then Red-Feathered Griffons fell to the floor continuously. Xia Ying activated the earth cones that flew in all directions, and Gong Hao controlled fireballs to attack the Red-Feathered Griffins one by one.

Ji Ling Shuang and Qi Rui continued to bombard the griffons that fell to the ground but weren’t dead yet.

Occasionally, if someone was scratched by a Red-Feathered Griffin, Yin Ming would immediately perform a healing spell.

The team worked together flawlessly, and hundreds of Red-Feathered Griffins failed to break through again and again. Not long after, Huo Li Ruo also succeeded in picking the Red Griffin Flowers half-way up the volcano.

“Go, retreat.” Huo Li Ruo said as he jumped right beside Yu Qing Qian and handed her the Red Griffin Flowers.

Then Yu Qing Qian began to organise the group to fight and retreat in an orderly manner.

When they retreated to the depths of the dense forest, the Red-Feathered Griffins merely circled and shrieked in the air, but didn’t dare to fly down, as if it was afraid.

“They don’t dare go deep into this dense forest. Let’s go out quickly and hand in the mission.” Yu Qing Qian waved to the group and quickly led them out of the forest.

As soon as they came out of the forest, everyone saw an instructor waiting there.

“Congratulations on completing the second test so quickly.” The instructor was filled with smiles and handed a piece of paper to Yu Qing Qian, saying: “This is the third mission. You can go do it when you’re ready.”

Yu Qing Qian took the third mission and read it, then handed it to the others with furrowed brows and asked the instructor: “The third mission is for us to go deep into the centre of Shui Wu Island to explore, but explore what? And if there’s no accident, then in the centre of the island, there should be Emperor-level magical beast and demonic plants, how can we go in deep?”

The mission only said that they should go explore near the centre of the island, but there was no clear content.

The instructor wasn’t surprised by Yu Qing Qian’s question, and explained with a smile: “The Holy Academy and Imperial Academy’s Elders have already made an agreement with the Spirit Emperor-level magical beasts and demonic plants in the centre of the island. They will not harm you.

“This Shui Wu Island suddenly appeared more than a decade ago. There are no natives on the island, and advanced-level demonic plants and magical beasts can’t enter deep into the centre of the island either. You only need to detect any abnormalities or noteworthy things near the centre of the island, and that will be considered to have passed the test.”

He paused, then reminded: “You must all be careful. The centre of the island is filled with dangers, but the danger to those below Spirit Marchal cultivation base people, magical beasts, or spiritual plants, is relatively lower. You may even have a chance to find some fortuitous opportunities.”

“Instructor, you mean to say that if an Emperor-level powerhouse enters deep into the centre of the island, then the danger will be much greater than for us?” Yu Qing Qian asked.

The instructor didn’t hide it either and said with a nod: “Indeed. There were already Emperor-level powerhouses from the Holy Academy and Imperial Academy who broke into the centre of the island before and encountered danger and were injured, and they couldn’t even go deep into it.”
