Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 953 Surprise Mission



When he saw the mission prompt that appeared in front of him, Lin Fan couldn’t help being shocked again.

This was the one kind of mission that he never expected from the system at this point.

“Special quest: Go to the special cultivation realm and obtain the special item before the time limit.”

It wasn’t something that was related to him or the store.

For once, it was an actual mission to retrieve something and there was even a time limit attached to it.

What was so special about this place and this item that the system would create a mission for it?

There was a bit of unease that filled Lin Fan as this thought filled his mind.

It was clear that this mission was anything but simple…

But the worst part was that he could already see the timer counting down.

It seemed that whether he went or not, he would be timed. So if he didn’t seize all the time that he had, he might not be able to finish the mission on time.

So there was no time to waste…

With this thought, Lin Fan said, “Cousin, I’ll leave you to close the store. I have something else important to do.”

Without even giving Lin Hong a chance to reply, Lin Fan waved at Angela, Yuki, and Momonga to follow him.

Zi Ling who had been standing nearby was surprised and a little hurt that Lin Fan didn’t call her along, but Angela still pulled her into the back with them.

Once they were there, Lin Fan didn’t say anything at first as he stood there with a stern look. Only after a while did he finally say, “I’ve received a mission from master, so I need you guys to come with me.”

The three of them had thought that they would be prepared for anything that Lin Fan said, but this really caught them off guard.

In their time in this store, they had never received a mission from the master of the store before.

They had gotten used to not having any contact with the master of the store even though the reason why they were able to stay with Lin Fan was because of this master.

So now that the master actually had a mission for them, they were of course shocked.

But as if to answer their doubts, there was a popup that appeared in front of them with the mission content.

This hadn’t been here before, but the moment that Lin Fan had talked to them about the mission, this prompt had suddenly been generated.

However, compared to Lin Fan’s mission, the content of their mission was a bit different.

Nonetheless, it was a mission that came from the master.

This was a mission from a God Realm Expert, so of course they were excited about it.

Zi Ling was the only one who had a disappointed look since she knew that this didn’t involve her.

She might know about the master of the store, but she had never had any contact with them. She could also see from the faces of everyone here that something had happened between them that she wasn’t aware of.

So she had no choice but to accept that this had nothing to do with her.

Seeing the looks on their faces, Lin Fan said, “Let’s go now, we don’t have any time to waste.”

All three of them gave nods in response to this.

Zi Ling was a bit hurt when she saw this, but Lin Fan turned to her and stroked her face before saying, “We’ll be back soon.”

No matter how she was feeling, she knew that the only thing she could do now was…

“Un.” She said with a smile on her face before saying, “Come back soon.”

Then in front of her, the four of them disappeared.

Once they were gone, she couldn’t stop a single tear from coming out of her eye.

When the scene cleared in front of Lin Fan, he was shocked by the world that he saw.

This was a world that was completely desolated, without a single trace of life.

There were bones scattered all around them, making it look even more terrifying.

But at the same time, it was also a bit familiar…

This place…it looked very much like the cultivation realm that Lin Fan had found Momonga in.

So he couldn’t help turning to look at Momonga.

When Momonga saw this, he shook his head with a bitter smile and said, “It’s different.”

Lin Fan raised a brow as he looked at him without saying a thing.

Momonga thought for a bit before saying, “It’s different from my place…the laws here are different.”

Lin Fan looked around, but he couldn’t feel anything strange.

Momonga then added, “I don’t know what it is, but there’s something about this place that I don’t like. We should leave as soon as possible.”

Lin Fan nodded in response.

He didn’t doubt Momonga’s senses and since he felt that there was something off with this place, he was sure that there was.

Not to mention that he felt uneasy about this place in the first place.

So he quickly opened up the system interface and found that there was a map that was provided.

Though this seemed natural since it was a mission to find something, he couldn’t help feeling that there was something off about this map.

The route that it gave him seemed very specific, as if the system was guiding him somewhere.

With how eerie this place was and how sudden this mission was, Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling more and more uneasy.

The three others with him just looked at him with strange looks, but none of them said a thing.

After a long period of silence, Lin Fan said, “Let’s go.”

The three nodded before following him along.

None of them made a move to take the lead. It was as if they were here as observers rather than participants.

While Lin Fan didn’t want to follow the route that the system gave him, it was still the safest way. After all, if he were to wander around in this place that he was unfamiliar with, it was unknown what kind of danger he would run into.

And the worst part of it all was…he didn’t have any extra lives.

Normally when he went to cultivation realms like this, he would always be given the ability to revive himself and his pets. But this time, after he arrived in this realm, he had received a notification from the system that told him that this function had been sealed.

So for now, he believed that his system wouldn’t have any ill intentions towards him and would guide him on a relatively safe path.

Though judging by the way that this place looked, it didn’t seem like there would be a safe place here.

They went through the empty plains covered in bones for a few minutes before finally seeing something in the distance. Looking from afar, it seemed like it was a group of buildings.

When Lin Fan checked on the map, he found that this group of buildings was on the route that the system had laid out for him and that he would need to pass through it.

However, no matter how he looked at it, it seemed like it was a trap…

In the end, after hesitating for a while, Lin Fan still decided to head towards these buildings.

When they came closer, they found that it wasn’t just a few buildings, but rather a bunch of buildings. With all of them together, it almost seemed like this was a city.

The only thing that was missing was the city wall that protected this place.

Then when they came closer, they found the reason why there wasn’t a city wall.

On the edge of the city, there was rubble lying all over the ground in a perimeter around the city.

It was clear that this was the remains of the city wall that had once protected the city.

At the same time, when they came closer, they could see that the buildings were completely dilapidated and surrounded by rubble. It was as if there had been a natural disaster that had blown through this place.

But looking even more closely, they could see signs of fighting in the form of cut marks and remains of arrows. Only the arrowheads remained, the wooden shafts of the arrows had long been decayed by the power of time.

The more they saw this, the more uneasy they felt.

It was clear that there had been something bad that happened here…

Lin Fan couldn’t help asking the three of them, “Do any of you know what realm this is? Have you heard of a place like this?”

All three of them shook their heads.

While Lin Fan asked all three of them, his question was really aimed at Momonga, the immortal Lich King. So he was disappointed when he saw that he shook his head as well.

Momonga saw this and said, “I don’t know what this place is based on the surroundings, but I should be able to find some clues in the city and then I can tell you what this place is.”

Lin Fan’s eyes lit up, but it also quickly dimmed.

He had planned on moving past the city quickly since this place gave him a bad feeling, but Momonga was right. They should try to get some information about this place so they would at least know what they were dealing with.

So with a nod from Lin Fan, they entered the city.
