Bai Yun reached the mission building quite quickly. The clan had multiple mission offices from where one could pick up their missions.
The mission building was separated into areas for each cultivation realms. It was not that one could not take missions from other areas but this was done as a standard for who could take the missions. Once Bai Yun entered the mission office, he went straight for the qi condensation mission area.
The missions in the clan could either be placed by the clan or individuals or groups both within and outside the clan. They had to pay for the rewards of the mission and also a small processing fee. The people from outside the clan who placed the missions simply had to pay more fee for the missions.
The rewards for the mission was mostly achievement points, but they could also be other practical resources.
The missions in the Bai clan were separated into four categories. They were common missions, restricted missions, open missions, and emergency missions.
Common missions were missions that did not need to be taken and were always open. Once one completed this, they could get rewards based on the completion percentage. These missions included things like raising a specific medicinal grass, killing special beasts, refining specific pills or turning in some special materials and so on. They were missions that could be easily completed and exchanged for a few clan points. They were mostly given by the clan, but some of them were also placed by the alchemist association and little merchant union and other such powers close to the clan.
Open missions were open to everyone, and everyone could try to solve them, but only the first person to hand in the mission would get the reward. But the reward for open missions was very high, as there would be many people scrambling to solve the mission, but only one could succeed. Thus people would only place open missions if they needed an item urgently. And the longer a mission stayed unsolved the higher their reward would be unless the person who placed the mission took it back.

Restricted missions could only be taken by one person or team one at a time. They were different from common and open missions in that you could only hand in a mission after first accepting it. Then there was a time limit to complete the mission. If the people who took the mission failed to finish it in the time limit, then they could no longer finish the mission, and also had to pay a small fine for causing the delay. But if the mission was failed due to misinformation or change in the mission parameters, then this would be waived.
Finally, there were emergency missions. These were only issued by the clan. They were issued when the clan neede to mobilize in large numbers or had to respond quickly. But they were extremely rare. There had been millennia since it last happened. They also tend to be done in large groups and have great rewards.
Once he entered the mission hall, there were many screens that showed the mission list. He had to wait a short while before he found an empty screen and went there to check out the missions.
Bai Yun looked through the missions listed on the screen. He had no desire to take any common missions. He needed a lot of points in order to rent the gravity chambers. He had already inquired about the points needed to rent the gravity chamber. A single day required thirty clan points. But common missions only gave less than ten points on average. It would take him a long time to complete the missions if he chooses such a stupid method.
But he was also unable to take any restricted missions since he had no points. Restricted missions made you bet a percent of the reward which ranged from five to ten percent as a guarantee before you took the mission. Thus he was unable to take any such mission. So his only hope was to find an open mission that was either recently posted, or too difficult for others to solve. Only thus would he be able to make enough points quickly.
As he read through them, Bai Yun did not find anything that got his interest. Most of them were to find some rare medicines or resources. This would require luck. And the ones that did not require luck would have many people who would be solving them. He could find the mission target, only to find that someone else had already completed the mission. He had no reason to waste his time that way.
Just as he reached the end of the list, Bai Yun's eyes narrowed. There was a six year old open mission at the bottom of the list. This was a very long time. It wasn't that there were no older missions, but the older ones were either decades old or removed after a long time. This was the only mission that was more than a year old and yet less a few decades old. Given time, this mission seemed to have the potential to grow into an unsolved mystery.
Bai Yun looked at the mission and frowned when he read the title: Give an explanation for the increase in the suppressive force at the hell pit.
The hell pit was a place in the Bai clan that was used for training. He had read about in one of the books about the clan he had gotten from old Hai. In the hell pit, powerful flames existed. These flames contained a terrifying will. But they were sealed and their powers reduced in the hell pit. But they would still burn and hurt from the inside, burning your body. It was a great place for body tempering cultivators to train. Others could also use this place to purify the impurities in their bodies. Thus it was a popular place, but not many people would use it for long, as they only neede a short time to clean their body.
In the Bai clan, it was believed that the hell pit was a gateway to the hell plane. It was said that if one climbed to the very bottom of the hell pit, there was a gateway that would allow you to enter the hell plane. But no one had reached the end yet. The flames would get hotter the deeper you go and not even a dao flower realm cultivator could survive in the depths of the hell pit.
The hell plane was one of the six mysterious planes that surrounded the universe. They were the hell plane, the spirit plane, the ancient plane, the slaughter plane, the soul plane, and the nether plane. They were unimaginably old. It was said that they existed even before the beginning of the fourth epoch, in which Long Tian was born. Each of the planes had their own laws and had their own environment and races and specialties. For example, the Ever Burning Nether Flame of the God of Alchemy came from the nether plane.
Bai Yun knew quite a bit about the hell plane. He had even visited the hell plane in his past life. Among the six mysterious planes, the hell plane had the worst environment. It had horrifying flames and nightmarish storms, the worst of which could kill even gods. As he recollected the memories, he turned his attention back to the mission in front of him.
The mission said that the flames in the qi condensation realm region were getting slightly stronger. The weird thing was that only the flames in the qi condensation region was getting stronger and not those of the lower regions.
This made no sense. The flames of the hell pit started from the bottom and climbed up. If there was a problem with the flames, then they should start at the bottom regions and only affect the qi condensation area last. The guardian of the hell tower had gone and inspected the arrays in the region that kept the flames suppressed in the qi condensation region. But no one could find anything wrong.
The increase in the power of the flames was only about ten percent. It was not enough to be alarmed, but still enough to be noticed. After a while, the people in charge decided that it was fine if they just left it as a mission. If the strength of the flames increased even further, then the higher ups could investigate and find out the truth.
Bai Yun knew quite a bit about the hellfire. He figured that with his knowledge he would be able to figure out the cause easily. Most importantly the starting reimbursement for the mission was a thousand points! Also if the reason was identified to be a threat, then there would be additional rewards depending on the threat level.
But there was still a problem. Each level of the hell pit was divided into three areas. The three areas were like three concentric circles, with the tube that carried the hellfires at the center. The closer one went to the tube, the hotter the flame would be. The outermost area was free for use. But the inner two areas required one to pay clan points to use.
But Bai Yun had no clan points. He was going to have to sell something to get some clan points. Thankfully, the points needed for the qi condensation realm area of the hell pit were not very high.
Bai Yun decided to sell part of his flowing silver to get some clan points. He knew that he would need to use at most half of it n order to make two daggers. Maybe even less. He could afford to sell about half of the flowing silver to get some clan points.
But it was only when he went to sell the flowing silver that Bai Yun found out what old Hai meant by the exchange rate being horrible. The clan was only offering sixty clan points for the piece of flowing silver that he offered. Based on the market value of the flowing silver and the other items he had seen in the mission list, even after thinking that the exchange rate would be bad based on what he had heard, Bai Yun had still estimated the price to be about two hundred clan points. This was not just having a bad exchange rate, it was daylight robbery.
In the end, Bai Yun changed his identity and exchanged a small part of the flowing silver for money, and then exchanged the cash for clan points using his true identity. Since the clan's identity tokens were given by family, he was not able to fake them as and when he desired. Of course, after he informed old Hai of his ability, he had promised to create a few identity tokens for him, but it would take some time.
All of this cost Bai Yun even more of the flowing silver than needed, but in the end, he had twenty five clan points. Bai Yun decided that this many clan points would be enough to get enough time to investigate the cause of the change. Once he was done with this he decided to go and buy some recording jades in order to capture any information necessary to find the truth.
After his preparations were done, he headed in the direction of the hell pit.
