Chapter 613: Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao
Chapter 613: Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao
"Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao!"
"They are the Primordial Flood Calamity, the Starvation Drought Calamity, the Cambrian Ice Calamity, the Plague Pestilence Calamity, and the most terrifying..."
"The Death Demonic Calamity!"
...
Mu Xueying said softly.
"How dreadful are these Five Calamities?" He Yiming was shocked just by hearing the names. He quickly asked for more details.
"Let's not even talk about how the humans of the ancient era were like ants! When facing the Primordial Flood Calamity, even ten thousand Nascent Soul grandmasters would be swallowed up by the flood like insects!" Mu Xueying said with certainty.
"!" He Yiming was astonished.
What the heck was this flood? Even if ten thousand Nascent Soul grandmasters were there, they would all be swept away?
Are you sure this is a flood?
Logically speaking...
He Yiming was actually quite curious. What kind of flood was so powerful that even ten thousand Nascent Soul grandmasters couldn't withstand it?
"The Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao... Save one million ancient people and ensure their survival..." He Yiming felt the pressure as he considered this legendary mission.
However...
"What rewards would the legendary mission offer?" He Yiming's eyes glinted as he secretly speculated.
The epic missions had once given him two heaven-defying rewards!
For a legendary mission...
Could it potentially offer three rewards at once?
After carefully considering the details, He Yiming turned around and looked at the group of players.
"Disciples!"
"Here it comes, Brother Ming is about to announce a mission!"
"Hahaha, I bet he's sending us out to sweep for heavenly treasures, and while we're at it, compete with the geniuses of the other three major clans! Hehehe, I've read thousands of fantasy novels, and this is how they always write it!"
"Exactly, just finished watching Brother Ming flaunting his affection, and now we have to go out and slay some monsters to vent our frustration!"
...
Many players were eager to get started.
"Real dragons? I really want to battle one!" Xiong Jianqiang looked at the distant sky where the real dragon had disappeared and couldn't help but think.
"I seem to have heard something..." Wang Lufei's gaze shifted as he looked in a certain direction.
"Brothers, go and sweep, whatever you bring back, we can deal with it!" Little Gourmet confidently declared, his mouth curved in a dominant expression.
So He Yiming began to speak.
"Disciples, the era we've come to is called the ancient era!"
"We're not here by accident; we're here on a mission!"
"Starting from now, disciples, you need to protect your own lives! In the ancient era, you only have one chance at life!"
...
As He Yiming spoke, he sent out a notification.
"Ding! Friendly reminder, a special ancient era storyline is starting. If a player dies, they won't be able to participate in the ancient era storyline again!"
With the system's prompt, all the players were startled.
"What the hell!"
"No resurrection?"
"Damn it, just one life! What should we do? I'm getting anxious!"
...
Many players became nervous all of a sudden.
Damn, was the ancient era storyline really this thrilling? To not allow resurrection, just one life?
Damn it, they had to play it stealthily!
Absolutely no recklessness!
"Disciples, in this era, there are countless ancient people! Your task is to search for these ancient people! Find them, bring them back, and then create a sturdy haven for them!"
"Disciples, you must follow this Sect Master to protect these ancient people and help them survive the Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao!"
...
After He Yiming finished, he briefly explained the Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao.
"Dang, is this storyline this exciting?"
"Damn it, I only have one life, and I have to protect NPCs? Are you kidding me?"
"The difficulty of this task is off the charts, even a monkey can see that!"
...
Many players had expressions of exasperation.
After all, even a monkey could tell that killing monsters was easy. Just rush over and kill them in a few strikes!
But protecting dumb NPCs in a mission? How difficult would that be?
The most difficult!
Seeing the players looking overwhelmed, He Yiming remained calm and released a new mission.
"Sect's Legendary Mission! Save the Ancient People!"
"Objective 1: Save one million ancient people and ensure their survival!"
"Objective 2: Establish a legendary haven sufficient to protect the ancient people!"
"Objective 3: Help the ancient people survive the Five Calamities of the Heavenly Dao!"
"Time limit: Three months!"
[Friendly reminder, this mission is extremely difficult and can only be completed by high-end, handsome, cool, powerful, and fearless galactic-shaking individuals!]
Mission Rewards: Inner Disciple Title and Status
Mission Rewards: One million contribution points.
Mission Rewards: The top ten outstanding players will receive personally crafted legendary exclusive customizable celestial artifacts from the Sect Master!
(Celestial Artifact: A growable tool that can transform into various forms according to the holder's needs and is soul-bound, evolving with the holder's strength. Each celestial artifact has the potential to become a sovereign-level Emperor's Artifact!)
As He Yiming announced the mission.
The players were all in an uproar!
"Damn, a celestial artifact!"
"One million contribution points? Inner disciple title?"
"Damn it, a celestial artifact! My god, it's actually a legendary weapon!"
"High-end, handsome, cool, powerful, fearless galactic-shaking individuals? Isn't that basically talking about me?"
"Damn, after hearing this, I'm definitely doing this mission!"
"Legendary mission, my god, the first legendary mission! If I miss this, wouldn't playing this game be in vain?"
...
In an instant, all the players were bubbling with excitement, casting away their previous dejection. Each player's eyes were shining brightly!
The words "Legendary Mission" alone had ignited the fighting spirit of many players!
"To ensure everyone's safety, the inner and outer sect stewards will hold a strategy meeting with me first. Other disciples, start preparing!"
He Yiming calmly said.
"Yes!" The players nodded in agreement and quickly started to take action.
The top players from the initial test took out their weapons and equipment, checked their conditions for wear and tear, and felt their own strength.
The second test players proficiently took out their six pieces of Earth-grade equipment, polished them one by one, and once again displayed their control over the power of their artistic conception.
The third test demonic players skillfully began forming teams, seeking teammates with whom they had cooperated multiple times and whose reputations were reliable.
As for the third test human players, the situation changed completely...
