"Hey, uncle, what are they doing?" Xing Jue asked an uncle beside him.
"Oh, the black-bearded man in the middle is the famous Tenryū Mercenary Group's Tenryū Commander. A few days ago, his younger brother led their entire mercenary group to escort a group of merchants into the Death Mountain Range. However, they haven't returned yet, so he decided to organize a group of strong independent mercenaries to search for the whereabouts of the mercenary group." The uncle seemed to be very clear about the matter and said to Xing Jue.
"I heard that the Death Mountain Range is very dangerous recently. Since these people are willing to follow him, the reward must be very good, right?" Xing Jue asked again. Although he wasn't interested in the reward, Xing Jue wanted to know what kind of things could attract these experts to risk their lives to follow him.
"It is said that as long as they can come back alive, they can get a Golden Silkworm Inner Armor. That is an armor with extremely high defensive power. For mercenaries who have been walking in the Death Mountain Range for many years, it is definitely a treasure for self-defense." The uncle said.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Xing Jue expressed his admiration for the mercenary group's background. The Golden Silkworm Inner Armor was an extremely precious treasure even in the Xing family. Moreover, there was only one of it, but this mercenary group could actually take out so many of them. It could be seen that the Tenryū Mercenary Group's background was not weak.
"Tenryū Commander, it seems that no one can pass the assessment. Why don't we leave first?" Just then, a tall and thin man among the ten people said to the black-bearded man.
"Alright." The black-bearded man looked around and said.
"Wait, I want to participate." Just when everyone was about to stand up and leave, Xing Jue suddenly opened his mouth and said. Shortly after, this seemingly weak young man walked into everyone's field of vision.
"Little friend, you want to participate? Do you know what we are going to do? "The tall and thin man looked at Xing Jue and said disdainfully. His eyes were full of ridicule.
"Can't I?" Xing Jue rolled his eyes at the tall and thin man and asked.
"Oh? Haha, sure, sure. As long as you can last 10 rounds against me, I'll consider you qualified. How about it? "The tall and thin man said again.
"If you can last one round against me, I will withdraw. How about that?" Xing Jue asked disdainfully.
"What? What a joke, haha … Did you hear someone telling a joke? "The tall and thin man suddenly laughed after hearing Xing Jue's words. The crowd roared with laughter. It was as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He thought to himself that if this brat was not mentally ill, then there was something wrong with his head. This skinny and tall man was a middle stage Martial Master, and with this special martial skill, his true strength was enough to fight with a high level Martial Master. Yet, this young man actually said that he could defeat him within a single round. This was indeed a very funny matter.
"Hahahahaha!" Xing Jue suddenly laughed after hearing the tall, thin man's words. However, Xing Jue's laughter baffled everyone. He thought to himself, was this brat crazy?
"Since that's the case, then I'll have to offend you." Suddenly, Xing Jue said coldly. At the same time, his body was like a flood dragon that had just emerged from the sea. An extremely strong Martial Qi burst out from his body and rushed towards the middle-aged man at an extremely fast speed. At this moment, the aura of a high level Martial Master also spread out without holding anything back.
"Crap!" That skinny and tall man would never have thought that Xing Jue would actually be a high level Martial Master. Furthermore, his explosive power was much stronger than an ordinary high level Martial Master's. However, by the time he discovered it, it was already too late. At such a distance, when he was caught off guard, he had no chance to retaliate against Xing Jue's full powered attack.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, Xing Jue's fist landed on the skinny and tall man's body. This punch pushed the skinny and tall man back more than ten steps before he could stop himself. Furthermore, this was under the situation where Xing Jue had only used 10% of his strength.
"Am I qualified now?" Xing Jue lightly clapped his hands and asked the skinny and tall man who had an awkward expression on his face.
"Haha, little friend, good strength. This is the first time I've seen a high level Martial Master at such a young age." At this moment, the black-bearded Tenryū Commander clapped his hands and said to Xing Jue with a smile.
"What?" High level Martial Master? " When they heard the Tenryū Commander's words, many of the weaker people looked at Xing Jue in disbelief. Even in the entire town, there were only a few high level Martial Masters, and this young man looked to be only around 16 years old. To be able to reach high level Martial Master at such a young age, this kind of talent was simply too terrifying. However, they did not know that it had only taken Xing Jue a year to reach high level Martial Master. If they knew, they would probably go crazy.
"Then I'm considered qualified?" Xing Jue smiled slightly, glanced at the skinny and tall man, and asked again.
"Hahaha, of course. I didn't expect this little brother to be so strong. I'm impressed." The skinny and tall man's attitude towards Xing Jue changed extremely quickly as he said with a face full of admiration. In this world, the strong were respected. With strength, one could exchange for the respect of others. This could be seen from this skinny and tall man.
"Alright, with this little brother joining us, our overall strength will also increase greatly. Let's set off!" As they spoke, everyone hurriedly stood up. Immediately after, a super strong mercenary team of eleven people slowly walked towards the Death Mountain Range that was already enveloped by the aura of death.
In the depths of the Death Mountain Range, there was a dangerous aura everywhere. From time to time, there would be the roars of magical beasts, causing people to tremble in fear.
"Tenryū Commander, the sky is getting dark. Why don't we set up camp here first and explore deeper tomorrow?" At this time, a mercenary team Tenryū Commander said.
"En, that's fine. Everyone set up camp first and continue exploring tomorrow." Looking at the sky that was gradually darkening, the Tenryū Commander said.
Thus, in the depths of the Death Mountain Range, Xing Jue's small team of mercenaries began to set up camp. Some people set up tents, some people prepared food, and some people set up traps in the surroundings. As for Xing Jue, who could not help, he could only find a place to cultivate.
After cultivating for about an hour, when he felt that the Martial Qi in his body was extremely abundant, Xing Jue slowly opened his eyes.
"Wow, what are you doing?" After Xing Jue opened his eyes, he trembled in fear. Because at this moment, in front of Xing Jue, Tenryū Commander was staring at him without blinking. Looking at that gaze, there was actually a feeling of wanting to continue. It was this kind of very gay gaze that made Xing Jue jump in fright.
"Brother Xing Jue, your cultivation method is very special." Tenryū Commander said with a smile. Originally, Tenryū Commander wanted to call Xing Jue over for a meal, but when he walked in front of Xing Jue, he discovered that the speed at which Xing Jue condensed Martial Qi was very fast. From this, he judged that Xing Jue's cultivation method was definitely not simple.
"Hehe, Tenryū Commander, what's the matter?" Facing Tenryū Commander's words, Xing Jue did not answer, but instead changed the topic.
"Haha, look at my brain. I am calling Brother Xing Jue over for a meal." Tenryū Commander said with a smile. Then he turned around and walked towards the crowd. And Xing Jue also wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, stood up and followed.
After dinner, Xing Jue did not enter the tent. Instead, he lay on the branch of a big tree, looking at the starry sky and pondering. That was because Xing Jue felt that there was something wrong with the Death Mountain Range. According to what Xing Jue had heard, there were a lot of magical beasts in the Death Mountain Range, and they often attacked passersby. And on the way, although Xing Jue and the others heard the roars of magical beasts from time to time, they did not encounter any attacks from magical beasts.
And thinking of those people who entered the mountain range and did not come out, Xing Jue could determine that they must have encountered something in the mountain range. They were either killed or trapped. And this abnormally quiet Death Mountain Range made people feel uneasy. Because the night before a storm, it was always abnormally quiet. Therefore, Xing Jue determined that the culprit who caused everyone to disappear tonight would definitely appear.
"Haha, what a delicious smell." At this moment, a chilling female voice suddenly sounded … At the same time, an extremely powerful force was approaching them at an extremely fast speed.
"So powerful." When he felt this powerful aura, Xing Jue could not help but be shocked.
