When the day of the hunt arrived, all the upper echelons of the Bai clan came out to send Ye Chen and the others off.
"Fellow Ye, it's up to the three of you this time. Everyone in the Bai clan wishes you a smooth victory in the hunt."
As the patriarch of the Bai clan, Bai Lin stepped forward and bowed extremely respectfully.
Now, the future of the Bai clan depended on Ye Chen and the other two. He had no choice but to do so.
"You're too kind, Patriarch Bai. Since I promised Bai Hua to win, you can just wait for the news this time," Ye Chen replied confidently.
"Hahaha, that's great."
Everyone in the Bai clan cheered. They had been looking forward to this day for too long.
"These are spirit stones that have been refined using the unique technique of our Bai clan. They're extremely pure. The quality of these spirit stones is enough to fight a hundred. Please bring them along, fellow Daoists."
Bai Lin personally brought three black brocade pouches and handed them to Ye Chen.
"Thank you. We're leaving."
Ye Chen took the pouches and gave one to the patriarch and Ye Wushuang. He kept one for himself and rode the sword boat toward the hunting grounds.
The Demon Eye Mountain was a gathering place for demonic creatures.
This place was not far from Fengzhou City, so it was extremely easy for demonic creatures to harass the city. Many caravans were completely annihilated because of demonic creatures.
In the end, the various major forces in Fengzhou City decided to hold the Hunting Meet every year. They invited all the powerhouses in Fengzhou City to kill demonic creatures and serve the safety of Fengzhou City.
This time, it was the Fengshen Martial Arts Competition that was held every three and a half years, so this hunt was even more important. It became the battle for the last three spots to participate in the competition.
"There are quite a lot of people."
Flying high in the sky, Ye Chen glanced over and realized that tens of thousands of people had gathered outside the Demon Eye Mountain. These people were the powerhouses that had been selected for dozens of days to deal with demonic creatures.
Seeing the sword boat flying in the sky, everyone raised their heads.
"Look, it's Ye Chen and the other two. They're the people personally selected by the City Governor to participate in the hunt. They're really amazing. He even gave them the sword boat!"
"That's right. His sword boat is different from ours. It's obviously a deluxe version. This Ye Chen is too amazing."
"Such a person is peerless!"
Many powerhouses praised Ye Chen. Of course, these people's strength was average and could not be considered peerless powerhouses.
There were also many people who looked at Ye Chen with disdain. After all, Ye Chen's cultivation base was only at the Void Refinement Stage, which was considered very ordinary in the Spirit Realm. If it were not for the incident at the Castellan's Mansion, no one would have noticed Ye Chen and the others.
At this moment, outside the Demon Eye Mountain, a person was standing on a high platform.
Ye Chen and the other two joined the crowd and saw that this person was a young master. He stood with the people from the City Governor's Mansion.
"Everyone, I am the City Lord's Mansion's Eldest Young Master, Shangguan Jie. I am the host of this Hunting Meet. At the same time, I will be participating in the meet with all of you, representing the City Lord's Mansion's determination to eradicate the Demon Eye Mountain."
"Okay, that's great!"
"Eldest Young Master is personally taking action. This time, he will definitely purge Demon Eye Mountain."
"Amazing! I didn't expect that we would be able to hunt with the Young Master!"
When that person introduced himself, there was a wave of cheers and applause.
Ye Chen looked at the high platform and found that this person's cultivation base was extraordinary. He was actually at the mastery-stage of the Divine Dividing Stage, almost catching up to the Patriarch. No wonder the people below were cheering.
"Is everyone here?"
"Everyone is here, everyone is here."
Everyone could not wait to enter the hunt because according to the number of prey they hunted, even if they could not get into the top three, they would still be rewarded handsomely. This was a decision made to encourage everyone to kill demons and ensure the smooth flow of Fengzhou City.
"Let's go!"
Under Shangguan Jie's order, everyone rushed toward the Demon Eye Mountain.
Ye Chen and the other two were not in a hurry and walked slowly.
"I wonder what level of demons there are in this Demon Eye Mountain?" the Patriarch asked.
"Look at how impulsive these people are. I guess the level of the demons in the periphery should not be high. We are not in a hurry because no one is competing with us. We are going to enter the deep mountains," Ye Chen said.
"Yes, Fellow Ye is thoughtful. Let these idiots hunt as much as they want in the periphery. The points of those low-level prey are too low. They can't play a key role at all."
"However, we can't be careless. I feel a lot of powerful auras. There are many people at the Divine Dividing Stage."
Ye Chen said.
"Yes!"
The Patriarch nodded at the same time. When he entered the scene, he also felt that there were tens of thousands of people here, at least a thousand of them were at the advanced stage of the Divine Dividing Stage. It could be seen that cultivation in the Spiritual Realm was much easier than in the Spiritual Realm. It was precisely because of the rich cultivation resources here and the amazing density of spiritual energy.
"Let's enter the mountain from the path!"
"Okay!"
Ye Wushuang and the Patriarch flew into the mountain from a small path under Ye Chen's lead.
After walking for about an hour, they found that the environment had changed greatly. The cold air here was obviously heavier. At the same time, the density of spiritual energy was dropping rapidly and the density of demonic energy was soaring.
"You can feel it, right? This demonic energy is completely different from what we encountered in the Demon Disaster Area."
Ye Chen walked while sensing the demonic energy. At the same time, he also cultivated demonic techniques, so he was equally sensitive to demonic energy.
"Yes, we will also go to the Demon Disaster Area to fight with the Demon Lord. The demonic energy there is not the same as here."
The Patriarch nodded at the same time.
Jian Wushuang's cold eyes observed the surroundings and he was always on guard.
"Roar!"
At this time, suddenly a roar came from the mountain.
"Such a roar is earth-shattering. It's at least a monster at the Divine Dividing Stage.
Kill it! "Ye Chen said.
"Hahaha, very good. My hands are itching."
The Patriarch flew forward.
Ye Chen smiled and followed with Wushuang.
They came to the top of the mountain and saw that the Patriarch was already fighting with a white-fronted worm.
Ye Chen looked at it and recognized that the worm was an old monster at the middle stage of the Divine Dividing Stage. However, the Patriarch was now at the late stage of the Divine Dividing Stage. Even if this was the Spiritual Realm, with the Patriarch's talent, there was no need to worry.
"Good fellow, you have some ability!"
The Patriarch shouted with a smile.
"Old man, how dare you come to our territory? You're courting death!"
The worm at the Divine Dividing Stage had already developed intelligence and could actually speak human language.
"Hmm?"
The Patriarch was stunned and furious.
"Underworld Sword!"
Summoning the Underworld Sword, the Underworld Energy in his body erupted, and the Patriarch's eyes locked on the worm.
"Devour you!"
The worm attacked angrily, opened its bloody mouth, and was about to devour the Patriarch.
"Underworld Sword — Hell Slash!"
The Patriarch activated the power of the Endless Underworld and infused it into the sword. Then, he found the flaw of the worm's attack and slashed.
"Clang!"
Unexpectedly, the worm's reaction was so fast that it used its sharp teeth to bite the Underworld Sword.
"Patriarch, can you do it?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.
"I've made a fool of myself in front of Fellow Ye. You evil creature, you've embarrassed me. Die!"
The Patriarch was angry, and the Underworld opened the way!
Kacha, kacha, kacha!
With the sound of breaking, the sharp teeth in the worm's mouth were all shattered!
"Chi!"
The beast's head fell to the ground!
