[Ding! The Host has selected the Fourth Option. Please proceed to plete the task in order to cim your reward.]
After seleg the fourth option, Reon moved further behind the main Mission Board to where the Intermediate Level Missions were dispyed. This board was rger than the o the front, radiating an aura of challenge and difficulty.
There were various types of Intermediate Level Missions, ranging from gathering Rare Grade Herbs deep within perilous forests to hunting Demonic Soldier Ras for their valuable meat, skins, or Primal Cores.
Some missions involved esc valuable things through dangerous territories, while others required subduing rogue cultivators causing trouble in the nearby vilges.
However, three particur Intermediate Level Missions caught Reon's attention—all set in the Mystic Evergreen Forest, each with a two-month deadline.

Reon g the first mission: hunting twenty Ashfire Lizards of Demonic Beast Rank, creatures terrifying for anyone below the Peak Stage Qi Solidification Realm cultivator.
These beasts thrive ireme heat, and Reon suspected they could be found in a pce of the Mystic Evergreen Forest. He'd firm it at the Mission Assig ter.
The reward was tempting, but the real challenge y in the requirement—each Ashfire Lizard had to be killed with a single, precise strike, leaving their skin unscathed. This felt nearly impossible, especially sihey always traveled in groups of four or five.
Even with Cloudia's Mist to aid him, Reon doubted his ability to deliver a o kill. Perhaps after a month of interaining in the forest, he might improve his ces—but he wasn't certain.
And he didn't want to risk losing 5,000 points for nothing, especially since he wasn't fident about pleting the mission.
Reon's gaze shifted to the seission, ohat also seemed promising.

[Mission Tittle: Ironcw Direwolf Hunt.
Objective: Collee Ironcw Direwolf (Demonic Soldier Rank).
Level of Difficulty: Intermediate

Reminder: Both froh must remain intact.
Penalty for Mission Failure: 5,000 Sect Points will be deducted from the mission acceptor.

The mission was to hunt an Ironcw Direwolf, a fearsome beast even Mid-Stage Foundatioablishment cultivators approached with caution.
Though Reon stood no ce of defeating it now, he believed that after mastering the Bdesong of the Silver Moon Teique and with Cloudia's help, they might succeed through a surprise attack.
It would be a life-ah struggle, much like his battle with the Gcier Fang Wolf in Frost Mountain Cave.
What made this mission even more appealing was the potential gain—Cloudia could advao Demonic Soldier Rank by abs the Primal Core of the Direwolf.
The reward was also higher than the first mission, and unlike before, there was o nd a perfect strike.
He could take down the beast with as many blows as needed, as long as its froh remained intact. It seemed like the better choice.
Reon finally turned his attention to the third mission.

This mission required gathering the elusive Seven-Leaf Moonshadow Lotus. Reon was already familiar with it—it was the very mission the protagonist had taken when he visited the Skyreach Mission Pavilion in the inal novel.
The herb, however, was guarded by a powerful Demonic Soldier Ra.
Reohe exact location of the herb and could easily cim it, pleting both the sed and third missions while earning the Sect Points.
He wasn't ed about the protagonist, but altering the plot could have unforeseen sequences.
There was more to this mission than just gathering the herb, and Reohat interfering here could ge the storyline.
He had already deviated from the inal plot once, and further disruptions might render his knowledge of this world's future unreliable.
That was a risk Reon wasn't willing to take.
"I'll take the seission," Reon decided.
