Food System in Cultivation World-Chapter 461 - 427: True Inheritance Task
Early in the morning, Chen Xu went to the Reception Hall to check the True Inheritance Tasks.
In Shenji Sect, the True Inheritance Tasks are generally complex and tedious.
Moreover, the prerequisites to take on these tasks are quite challenging.
First, one must be at least at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment cultivation, and secondly, they must have been an inner disciple for over five years.
Additionally, they must accumulate various sect contributions regularly. It’s said that if an ordinary disciple’s total sect contributions do not reach three thousand or more, they aren’t even qualified to take on a True Inheritance Task.
But Chen Xu didn’t need to worry about any of these.
After all, he is a Nascent Soul disciple,
If a Nascent Soul disciple didn’t even have such a direct privilege, then Master Mao’s Nascent Soul status would be in vain.
Now, Chen Xu was just one official sect acknowledgment away from becoming a True Disciple.
He checked the task jade slip.
Among them, the True Inheritance Tasks were in a locked state, requiring him to unlock and view them with his disciple token.
After unlocking, Chen Xu found that there were a total of ten True Inheritance Tasks available to choose from.
The first task was: personally craft a Sixth Grade Magical Treasure, without any assistance, and earn forty True Inheritance Dao Points.
It is worth noting that once the True Inheritance Dao Points accumulate to one hundred, one immediately becomes an official True Disciple of the sect.
To craft a Magical Treasure and directly obtain forty Dao Points, completing almost half of the True Inheritance Dao Points in one go.
Unfortunately, Chen Xu was a beginner in crafting and it was almost impossible for him to create a Sixth Grade Magical Treasure in a short time.
He could only pass over this task.
Looking further down, the following tasks were all related to crafting as well.
Whether it was achieving innovation and breakthroughs in certain crafting techniques or participating in crafting competitions in the Immortal City, all could earn True Inheritance Dao Points.
The number of Dao Points ranged from ten to twenty.
And Chen Xu could basically dismiss these tasks as well.
He started to frown slightly; one could only say that Shenji Sect was indeed a crafting sect, with most of the True Inheritance Tasks hooked to crafting.
Fortunately, after looking at two more tasks, Chen Xu finally saw one task related to Spirit Chefs:
Participating in the Rare Delicacies Banquet held every autumn in the Immortal City and making a name for oneself at the banquet could earn thirty True Inheritance Dao Points!
Spirit Chefs were also highly regarded in Shenji Sect.
Making a name at the Rare Delicacies Banquet could actually yield thirty Dao Points.
Chen Xu particularly noted one point here, and that was "what does it mean to make a name."
Or rather, what was the standard of judgment for "making a name"?
Behind the task, a small explanation was given.
In Canglan Immortal City, every year in the fall, a Rare Delicacies Banquet would be held.
Spirit Chefs below Seventh Grade were required to undergo a blind taste testing before the banquet.
All Spirit Chefs had to hide their identity, wearing cloaks that concealed their appearance and form, and then publicly create a signature spiritual dish.
Finally, invite all cultivators participating in the taste test to sample randomly.
This spiritual dish was judged not by the number of True Jade Symbols but by the evaluations and votes from all cultivators participating in the taste test.
Anyone who could receive votes from over a hundred people during the taste test could be considered to have made a name in the Immortal City.
Chen Xu currently had little information and was actually unclear on just how difficult it was to receive votes from over a hundred people.
But he took on this task.
Even if he didn’t wish to be ostentatious, he figured that if he could indeed make a name through the taste test, then Chen Xu’s daily means of gathering acclaim would be greatly expanded.
This was an excellent opportunity, and Chen Xu decided to try to seize it.
The task jade slip stated that the official Rare Delicacies Banquet would be held in a month.
After taking on this task, Chen Xu continued to check other tasks.
Soon, he found another task he could currently take:
Six hundred miles east of Canglan Immortal City, our sect’s Xuanyang Iron Armor No. 3 mine had recently experienced frequent reductions in ore production.
The sect’s guardian disciples had gone to investigate multiple times, all returning without success.
Finding out the reason for the reduction in this mine’s production could earn twenty True Inheritance Dao Points.
Chen Xu took on this task as well, and just as he received the task token, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, followed by a surprised voice:
"Chen... Master Uncle, you actually took on the task for Armor No. 3 mine. This task has been there for at least half a year, and no clear clues have been found yet.
Why did you take on this task?
Do you know that you can only take on a maximum of two True Inheritance Tasks at the same time?
If you take on this one, it will take up half of your task slots.
What else have you taken on... what? You also took on the task of making a name at the Rare Delicacies Banquet?
Ye Ningzhen had come over.
She stammered as she called Chen Xu Master Uncle, and then hurriedly explained the task rules to him:
"Chen... Master Uncle, once you take on a True Inheritance Task, you cannot take on new ones unless one of them is completed.
Alas, if these tasks are too difficult and take a long time to complete, they could delay the accumulation of True Inheritance Dao Points."
As the senior sister of the fifty-second generation of disciples, she was indeed very earnest in persuading Chen Xu.
If it were someone else, she might not have spoken so bluntly.
But Chen Xu was, after all, the "Master Uncle" she personally introduced into the sect, and Ye Ningzhen was also grateful for his Spring Wind Snow Melt drink yesterday. At this moment, she couldn’t help but be extra enthusiastic.
"Master Uncle Chen, look, there’s another task down here.
It is to enter the Gate of Catastrophe and slay a Foundation Establishment level captain-class demon and bring back its demon core.
Though this task only earns ten True Inheritance Dao Points, it can be taken repeatedly.
You can take it again after completing it once, and in no time, you should be able to accumulate a hundred Dao Points."
Slicing demons was described by Ye Ningzhen as easily as if it were a simple task.
She even covertly signaled Chen Xu to check his spiritual talisman communications.
Only then did Chen Xu notice his spiritual talisman was slightly vibrating and heating up.
He quickly took out the spiritual talisman and inserted a Qi Radiance Pill into it, and soon, Ye Ningzhen’s voice sounded distant and near in his ear:
"Master Uncle Chen, I have the most experience in slaying demons, you needn’t worry.
I have recovered from my injuries today, and my cultivation seems to have advanced another step."
