Chapter 175: Hunting Blade Team!
Chapter 175: Hunting Blade Team!
After leaving the tavern, Ling Feng naturally didn't go to any weapons shop to buy weapons, but instead headed straight to the trading hall of the Hunter's Guild.
From what the tavern owner, Tian Mi, said, Ling Feng learned that the hunters who entered the Heavenly Forest to hunt demons usually traveled in groups. Those wandering cultivators also temporarily formed an organization similar to a guild, responsible for collecting the spoils of the hunters.
Upon arriving at the Hunter's Guild, Ling Feng happened to see a towering giant of a man who appeared to be recruiting teammates.
"Piss off!"
The towering giant slapped a skinny monkey-like martial artist away and said coldly, "Those whose strength isn't up to par, don't even think about tagging along! This time, we're crossing the extremely dangerous Sea-Blue Abyss to reach the imperial capital. Anyone lacking in strength will only meet their end if they join us!"
"To the imperial capital?"
With a flicker in his eyes, Ling Feng's lips curved into a slight smile. Truly, it was like finding something without searching, and obtaining it effortlessly!
"Excuse me, can I join?" Ling Feng stepped forward with a slight smile.
The burly man turned his head, looking at the clean-looking young man in front of him. "You want to join us?"
"Indeed." Ling Feng nodded. "I have cultivation at the second level of the Condensation Realm."
After speaking, Ling Feng intentionally opened two meridian gates to prove himself.
"Hmmm?" The big man furrowed his brow, sensing that the young man in front of him only had the cultivation of someone at the mid-stage of Qi Formation, yet he could open two meridian gates. It seemed that he was one of those lucky individuals whose realm was somewhat inflated, likely relying on pills to enhance his cultivation.
However, the Pulse Formation Realm was still the Pulse Formation Realm, which was undoubtedly much more powerful than the Qi Formation Realm.
The big man nodded. "Your cultivation level seems fine, but this time we're in a hurry to head to the imperial capital through a shortcut from the Sea-Blue Abyss. It's no walk in the park, and I can't guarantee you won't die."
"I happen to have urgent matters in the imperial capital as well, so I'd like to take this shortcut too!" Ling Feng nodded with a smile.
"Alright, then it's settled. From now on, you're a temporary member of our Hunting Blade Team," said the burly man, giving Ling Feng's shoulder a pat. "I'm Chen Lei, but you can call me Lei. Once everyone is gathered, I'll take you to meet the leader."
"Thank you, Lei," Ling Feng said with a smile.
Not long after, Chen Lei recruited another middle-aged man who was at the fifth level of the Pulse Formation Realm. Once the team was assembled, Chen Lei didn't say much and led Ling Feng and the other man directly to the city gate.
"Old Lei, you're pretty fast!"
A middle-aged man clad in soft leather armor quickly approached. This man was none other than the leader of the Hunting Blade Team, known by the nickname Blood Python.
"How are the recruits this time?" Blood Python shouted from a distance.
"One is at the second level of Pulse Formation, and the other is at the fifth level," Chen Lei replied succinctly.
"Mhmm, not bad," Blood Python glanced at Ling Feng and the other newly recruited member. When he noticed Ling Feng's visibly youthful face, his eyelids twitched slightly. To reach the Pulse Formation Realm before twenty, this kid must be from a big family.
Blood Python, in his early years, was actually a mountain bandit who ruled over his domain. However, due to his numerous misdeeds, his family was killed by enemies, leading him to awaken to his sins. Later on, he left that former life behind and ventured into the depths of the Heavenly Forest, where he began a new life of hunting.
"Hehe, it's a good thing I've turned over a new leaf. Otherwise I might have thoroughly robbed this greenhorn young master when I saw him."
Blood Python chuckled wryly to himself and smiled at Ling Feng and the other new member. "Welcome to the team, both of you. I'm Blood Python, the leader of the Hunting Blade Team. You can call me Blood."
"Hello, Blood. My name is Ling Feng." Ling Feng nodded slightly towards Blood Python, his tone neither humble nor overbearing.
"This kid... he's probably not that simple!" Blood Python nodded inwardly. He had seen many people in his life, and although he initially thought Ling Feng was just a greenhorn, seeing the look in Ling Feng's eyes and his demeanor as he spoke, he knew that Ling Feng was definitely an extremely dangerous individual.
His sword tasted a lot of blood!
The other middle-aged man nodded slightly and said softly, "Blood, I'm called Hu Sandao."
Blood Python nodded and led Ling Feng and the others to join the rest of the team.
