The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Hearing Han Yi's words, Ye Qiuli's eyes lit up immediately. She excitedly exclaimed, "That's right! The Four Arts Competition is in three months, which is a perfect opportunity for us Danfu Peak disciples to shine! If we lead our sect to victory, we'll have nothing to fear!"

She sneered and continued, "Hmph, now those disciples from both the inner and outer sects are still mocking our Danfu Peak. Once the competition is over, I'll see who dares to look down on us."

Han Yi nodded in agreement, saying, "Junior Sister is right. In this Four Arts Competition, our Danfu Peak must perform well and make those who look down on us look at us with new eyes."

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming with a determined light.

……

The next day.

Early in the morning, Lin Yitang left her newly assigned cave dwelling and headed to the Mission Hall to receive her elite disciple mission. Her new cave dwelling was indeed very close to the various halls, and she arrived at the Mission Hall in no time.

However, upon arriving at the Mission Hall, the disciple in charge told her that they were not responsible for issuing elite disciple missions there, and that she should go directly to the Third Elder to receive a new mission.

Lin Yitang was somewhat surprised; it turned out that the regular mission hall could no longer assign her missions.

It seems that the elite disciple mission is indeed extraordinary and highly confidential. Only the sect leader and the third elder and other high-level figures know about it, while ordinary deacons and disciples are completely unaware of it.

But since she was already there, Lin Yitang didn't want to leave empty-handed.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Can I post a task?"

The disciple in charge replied, "Of course, anyone can issue a task. Tell me, what kind of task do you want to issue?"

Lin Yitang said without hesitation, "I want a spirit of the five elements, either metal or wood. I hope someone can help me find one."

That's right, what Lin Yitang needs are the five elemental spirits of the two attributes other than the three she already possesses. She wants to collect all five elemental spirits and synthesize them into a weapon spirit. If she were to search for them alone, it would take forever. It's much better to issue a quest; many hands make light work.

Furthermore, the five elemental spirits have limited use for ordinary people, and no one would ever claim them for themselves. The only concern is that they might be auctioned off by someone greedy for money. Therefore, Lin Yitang was very generous with the reward, offering a full one hundred mid-grade spirit stones.

This reward elevates the task to Grade A.

The disciple in charge patiently replied, "Okay, Senior Sister's task has been issued. We will notify you once someone completes the task."

Lin Yitang nodded and left the mission hall.

After walking a distance, she turned around as if sensing something, and saw two familiar figures, a man and a woman, entering the mission hall.

Lin Yitang frowned. Weren't those Ye Qiuli and Han Yi? These two guys fell off a cliff in the icy plains and actually survived. They're incredibly lucky. She wondered if they were at the mission hall to post or accept a mission.

But none of that mattered to her anymore; she had to hurry to the Elder Hall to receive her elite disciple mission.

Fifteen minutes later, Lin Yitang stepped into the gate of the Third Elder's Hall.

When the Third Elder saw her, he nodded and said, "You've come."

Lin Yitang cupped his hands and said politely, "Greetings, Third Elder. I'm here to receive the elite disciple mission."

The Third Elder said, "Your mission has been discussed with the Sect Master. Since you recently visited the Northern Ice Plains and are quite familiar with the area, we have decided to give you a mission in the Ice Plains region. Of course, you can refuse if you don't want to accept it."

"Recently, there has been unrest in various dangerous areas of the northern ice plains. Your task is to investigate the source of this disturbance. We don't know if it's the emergence of a rare treasure or the work of evil spirits. In any case, notify us immediately after your investigation. Do not act rashly. It's best to wait for our kin to arrive before taking action."

Hearing this, Lin Yitang was extremely puzzled.

Unrest has broken out in various dangerous areas of the ice sheet?

How come she didn't know about this?

She had been wandering around the ice fields for a while without encountering any turbulence.

The only thing that could potentially cause unrest is the tribulation that Ming Yijun suffered when he broke through to the Nascent Soul stage.

But this turmoil doesn't affect every dangerous place; their actions at most impact one dangerous place, Leichi.

Thinking about this, Lin Yitang suddenly sensed that something was amiss.

Yes, it was indeed a bit strange when Senior Brother Ming broke through to the Nascent Soul stage at the Thunder Pool.

The disciples hurriedly fled the moment the tribulation lightning appeared, seemingly unsurprised, displaying remarkable skill and decisiveness.

At the time, she was only focused on protecting her senior brother and didn't notice this phenomenon. Now that she thinks about it, it is indeed unusual.

The disciples reacted as if the turmoil had occurred before, as if they were used to it.

Could it be that this turmoil occurred before the event itself?

That doesn't make sense. She had been to various dangerous places before, and nothing happened. It was just that some of the demonic beasts guarding the spiritual veins were a bit restless.

Thinking of this, her expression became somewhat strange, and she asked, "Third Elder, could you give me some more specific information, such as what kind of dangerous place it is and when the turmoil occurred?"

The Third Elder said, "Of course, this is all information you should have." With that, the Third Elder told Lin Yitang all the information without holding anything back.

However, Lin Yitang's expression became even stranger after hearing this.

These dangerous places that caused turmoil, and the timing of the turmoil... it feels exactly the same as the location and time when she explored the spiritual veins beneath the ice plains?

Could it be that she caused this trouble?

Yes, those underground monsters are at least half-step Nascent Soul cultivators, and there are some terrifying beings above the Nascent Soul level. It seems normal that their actions cause damage to the ground.

Now she understood the situation. She sighed and said, "Elder, I... I think I know where this turmoil came from. We don't need to investigate anymore."

The Third Elder hurriedly asked, "Why? Do you know what happened?"

Lin Yitang said somewhat awkwardly, "The person who caused this commotion is none other than... me."

Third Elder: "?"

Upon hearing this, the Third Elder was immediately shocked, his face showing an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

His eyes widened, his mouth slightly agape, and his voice rose involuntarily: "You were the one who caused this commotion? What happened? What were you doing on the ice plains?"

Taking this opportunity, Lin Yitang recounted her exploration of the underground spiritual veins in the icy plains to the Third Elder. However, she concealed the fact that she had obtained the Azure Lotus Pure Fire Lotus through Ye Qiuli, only saying that she had fought with a demon beast, accidentally fell off a cliff into an underground cave, and that during her escape, she had a flash of inspiration and accidentally did that thing.

Of course, she also mentioned that she had drawn a map of the spiritual veins' locations while exploring the underground. After all, even if she knew this, her cultivation level wasn't enough to deal with the demonic beasts obtaining the spiritual veins, so it was better to share it with the sect.
