Chapter 377

On the other side,

on the mountainside,

Xue Jiuling told Li Yao the task objective.

Li Yao finally understood what Xu Fei and the others meant by 'climbing the mountain'.

"In other words, climbing to the summit and assisting that senior surnamed Shang to enter the center of the lake is the task of this trip?"

Xue Jiuling nodded.

"That's right, actually, as long as you reach the summit and follow orders, you can get most of the contribution."

"So for practitioners like Fu Hong, the goal is just to climb the mountain."

"Any student can apply to Jingyu for this kind of task."

"As long as Jingyu feels that the task is helpful for the students' training, or the reward obtained is worth everyone fighting for, Jingyu generally won't refuse."

"Coincidentally, the Sorrowful Snow Mountain satisfies both options."

"What's in the center of the lake?" Li Yao asked puzzledly.

"A special Lord-tier BOSS that will drop a special item that can increase the difficulty of the Third Advancement task."

"Oh?"

Increasing difficulty, at first glance, sounds like a trash item.

But task difficulty increase means advancement completion rate increase; it's definitely a precious item!

Li Yao became interested and asked: "Is there a difference in the items obtained between Master-tier difficulty and Nightmare Purgatory-tier?"

"No difference!" Xue Jiuling blinked, "This kind of item can have three put in when receiving the advancement task; there are many styles of items, but the effects are all the same!"

"I know what you're thinking, and the Dean knows too."

"So don't worry, the Dean might value your career development prospects even more than you do."

"As long as you collect three, you can maximize the task difficulty," Li Yao recited in his heart.

Since he knew, he naturally had to do it perfectly!

"Then do I have a chance to enter the center of the lake?"

"Logically speaking, no chance, because the opening of this dungeon was bought by the merchants, and everyone who comes in is just tagging along."

Xue Jiuling smiled, and the conversation turned.

"But!"

"The rewards for each difficulty of the Sorrowful Snow Mountain remain the same, but the quantity has changed. Master-tier has three chances to open the center of the lake."

Xue Jiuling pointed at the top of her head.

"Up there, there are probably two waves of people confronting each other now. Our task is to ensure that the senior from the merchant side can enter the center of the lake at least once."

"When Senior Shang and his team enter, our combat power outside will be greatly weakened, so the Asura side should have at least one chance."

"The last time depends on ability."

"If you get more contribution, if you don't, the contribution is the minimum limit."

"So that's it!" Li Yao nodded.

Then a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"In other words, as long as I let that group of foreign practitioners not enter even once, I can reasonably get the remaining two quotas, right?"

"Bingo! You got it right!"

Xue Jiuling's eyes were sparkling.

This is Li Yao!

No matter what kind of 'big talk' he says, Xue Jiuling feels it's reasonable!

Those practitioners are students of the top Asura academy, Strazburg, and have legendary classes like the SS-grade Priest, and their levels are more than ten levels higher than Li Yao's.

Even so, Xue Jiuling still felt that what Li Yao said was no problem!

"This is also the reason why the Dean let you enter this dungeon!"

"Let that group of foreign practitioners not get a single quota!"

"No time to lose, let's go up."

Li Yao said calmly.

"Blue Bird, make this snow fall even harder."

As the voice fell, Blue Bird leaped into the sky, 【Glacier Storm】 was activated and charging.

Ice-attribute damage has reduced damage to these monsters living in the icy world.

But it can't withstand Blue Bird's high attributes!

In just a few minutes, the snow range of 【Glacier Storm】 covered Li Yao's side, the entire mountainside.

【-8572】

【-7918】

【- (Weakness Attack)】

Damage of thousands appeared on the heads of countless monsters.

Li Yao and Xue Jiuling didn't go up, watching the front from afar at the foot of the mountain.

This group of mountain ape monsters that had just eliminated dozens of practitioners,

didn't even see the enemy, and were gradually covered by ice and snow.

Frozen, dead!

"Let's go."

Li Yao woke up Xue Jiulan beside him.

"Okay, okay."

No matter how many times she saw it, she still felt this skill was a bit outrageous.

Large range, high damage, long duration!

What kind of attributes are needed to use this kind of skill comparable to a forbidden spell!?

The two went up the mountain at the fastest speed, 【Glacier Storm】 was still continuing, and no living monster could be seen around.

Soon, the two passed through layers of snowfields and came to a place close to the summit.

"Someone came up! It's a Dragon Nation practitioner, attack me!"

Suddenly,

just when Li Yao hadn't seen anyone yet, a cry came from above.

"Reconnaissance-class practitioner?"

Li Yao's reconnaissance means basically rely on Blue Bird flying to a high place; in a place with such low visibility, even Blue Bird has no way.

After Level 30, it seems he must use that summoning skill book.

Li Yao pondered.

At the same time,

sky-filling arrows and energy bullets wove a large energy net in the air, flying toward Li Yao.

"Ice Wall."

"Boom!"

A huge ice wall that cut off the entire summit appeared!

"There must be Dragon Nation practitioners above too, as long as we hold on for a while, they will come to support."

Xue Jiuling reminded.

"Is that so?" Li Yao responded.

He wasn't used to placing hope on others.

The release of 【Glacier Storm】 had never stopped.

A few minutes later, the entire summit would be within the range of the storm.
