Chapter 34 - The Only Legendary Quest
Chapter 34: The Only Legendary Quest
“Because the inner secret realm was created by the outer demons, native lifeforms cannot enter. However, you Undying are also outer beings and can enter. Child… will you enter the inner secret realm and slay the parasitic demon for the future of the Novice Village?”
The village elder, Elder Xu, looked at him eagerly, filled with hope.
At the same time…
Ding!
[The village chief has issued a quest: Enter the inner secret realm of the novice village and slay the outer parasitic demon!]
[(Level Requirement: Unknown, Unique Legendary Quest)]
Hiss…
Ye Qiu took a sharp breath, eyes widening.
A unique legendary quest?!
Everyone knew that quests were divided into four tiers: Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.
Within each tier, there were also quests marked “Unique.”
This meant that out of all three thousand Novice Villages on the Eastern Continent, there was only one of this quest!
Not only was this quest absent from his own novice village, but none of the shadow novice villages had it either!
In other words, only Novice Village 0001 had its inner secret realm created by the outer demons.
This event was not mirrored in any of the shadow villages.
Which meant that if a player wasn’t in Novice Village 0001, they would never receive this quest!
However, Ye Qiu hesitated, because another system notification rang in his ears.
Ding!
[Warning: If you fail this quest, your level will be reset to 0.]
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu’s expression remained unchanged.
This was expected.
Certain high-tier and special quests always had penalties upon failure.
“It’s worth it!”
After careful consideration, Ye Qiu realized that this punishment was nothing to him!
With the knowledge, equipment, and skills he possessed now, returning from Level 0 to Level 11 would take just one in-game day!
“Elder Xu, may I ask what species the parasitic demon in the inner secret realm belongs to?” Ye Qiu asked the most crucial question.
outer demons.
These four words were all too familiar to him!
In his past life when the village chief slashed open the sky, the ancient gods descended one by one.
At the same time, the outer demons emerged, wreaking havoc across the land!
These creatures were far more terrifying than native monsters.
They came in many different species, each possessing unique racial abilities that made them incredibly difficult to deal with!
More importantly, no one in his past life had ever discovered this unique legendary quest, so no one knew about it!
Ye Qiu’s only advantage was his knowledge of outer demons!
As long as he could determine what kind of demon was in the secret realm, he would have a strategy to deal with it!
The village chief nodded.
He raised his hand, and suddenly, a holographic image appeared in front of Ye Qiu.
The image showed a dimly lit underground chamber.
At the far end, a huge, grotesque, transparent creature lay dormant.
As if sensing something, it suddenly opened its eyes.
Its pupils burned red. Its mouth gaped open.
“So it’s this thing!”
The moment Ye Qiu saw the image of the outer demon, he immediately understood because he had encountered this creature in his past life!
“Split Demon!” He blurted out its name.
The village elder was visibly shocked. “You recognize this outer demon?!”
Ye Qiu casually made up an excuse. “We had similar creatures in my world.”
“Is that so?” The village chief didn’t press further. Instead, he continued, “If you can preserve its blood and bring it back in a container after slaying it, there will be an additional reward.”
The system notification followed immediately.
Ding!
[The village elder has issued a side quest: Collect the blood of the outer demon ‘Split Demon.’
(Epic-tier Side Quest)]
“Accept!”
“Accept!”
Ye Qiu took on both quests without hesitation.
At this moment He was brimming with confidence!
Because in his past life, out of the very few outer demons he had personally encountered and slain, one of them was the Split Demon!
“This is the key to the inner secret realm.” Seeing Ye Qiu accept the quest, the village elder finally let out a sigh of relief and handed him an item.
Ye Qiu took it and examined it.
[Secret Realm Map (Legendary): Directs to the novice village’s inner secret realm.]
“Huh?”
Looking at the item description, Ye Qiu suddenly thought of something.
Earlier, when he looted the body of the female player Smoky Clouds Fade, he had found something very similar.
He checked [Secret Realm Map (Common): Directs to the Nether Spring Eye.]
One was Legendary, the other was Common.
At that moment, the village elder gave an important warning.
“The inner secret realm where the Split Demon resides can only be entered by players between Level 10 and Level 15. Remember, do not exceed Level 15. If you do, the quest will automatically fail.”
Ye Qiu nodded.
“Don’t worry, Elder Xu. I’ll make sure to take care of that monster before I leave the novice village!”
The village elder didn’t seem too convinced, merely sighing. “Let’s hope so…”
After all, that was an outer demon!
Back in ancient times, these creatures had caused the deaths of countless gods!
Now, in front of him was merely an Level 11 Undying.
The only advantage the Undying had was their ability to revive.
However, some demons could bypass this ability entirely.
As long as they destroyed the soul, even the Undying would perish completely!
After bidding farewell to the village chief, Ye Qiu visited both the blacksmith Zhang Tie and the Herbalist Shopkeeper.
Two regular quests were completed.
Ding!
[Congratulations, you have completed the blacksmith Zhang Tie’s quest. Reward: 5 gold coins, 5 reputation points, 5 skill attribute points.]
Ding!
[Congratulations, you have completed the Herbalist Shopkeeper’s quest. Reward: 10 gold coins, 2 health potions, 2 mana potions.]
Then, he turned in two special items.
First, he handed the “Lost Mysterious Iron” to the blacksmith.
Zhang Tie, who had been hammering away at his forge, suddenly froze.
He stared at the iron Ye Qiu handed over.
For a long time, he remained stunned.
Then, his eyes glowed as he looked at Ye Qiu.
He asked, “Do you want to learn blacksmithing?”
“Huh?” Ye Qiu was about to say something, but Zhang Tie didn’t give him a chance.
Before he could react Zhang Tie pressed his palm against Ye Qiu’s forehead.
Ding!
[You have learned the ‘Blacksmithing’ skill!]
Ding!
[You have unlocked the subclass ‘Blacksmith!’]
Ye Qiu’s eyes lit up.
A subclass!
That was highly valuable!
In his past life, some lucky casual players who didn’t focus on leveling up ended up mastering subclasses instead.
Classes like blacksmithing, alchemy, talisman crafting, and spirit infusion.
Later, when they reached major cities, they were sought after by countless NPCs!
Royalty, sect leaders, hidden masters, they all wanted to recruit these players!
These lucky individuals spent the next twenty years living comfortably and luxuriously!
