Chapter 682 Entering The Sunset Mountain. (1/2)
On their way to Sunset Mountain, the members of the Tiger Mercenary Team whipped their red flood dragon horses which were famous for their incomparable speed and kept riding day and night without rest.
Eight days later, they arrived at the foot of a lofty mountain chain.
”Guys, this is the Sunset Mountain. Our mission officially starts the moment we enter the mountain.
Diabolic beasts of level seven or level eight are abundant in the mountains. But once in while a diabolic beast of level nine or ten may show up in front of you.
Keep in mind the rules. You are not allowed to act alone. I'm the commander this time, so everything you do should be as per my order. Thus, we can maximize our gains.
After we complete our mission and return to the city, you will get a percentage of what we have gained from here.
I don't want to emphasize on this but I have to inform you all that if someone dares to disobey my orders and messes up this mission, I'll punish him severely. My actions will be regardless of the fellowship that has formed among us during the days that we have spent together!”
The assistant team leader of Tiger Mercenary Team, who was in charge of the mission warned them all. Next, he whipped his horse and was the first one to rush into the Sunset Mountain.
All the other cultivators in the team struck their horses with their lashes and followed him into the forest. So did Austin.
But once he had entered the Sunset Mountain, he felt it was pointless to stay with the team. He wasn't there to complete some mission. He was on his own mission.
His purpose of going to the Sunset Mountain was to practice the Beast Energy-extracting Skill. So he decided to seek an appropriate chance and leave the team.
He didn't care about what the assistant team leader had said at all regarding the punishment if anyone disobeyed his orders. He wasn't going to listen to some leader's instructions!
During the first few days, the cultivators kept hanging around in the outer range of the Sunset Mountain. All the diabolic beasts they met were at level seven. They were able to slay a large number of level seven diabolic beasts easily and took their beast cores as well as other valuable parts like blood, flesh, bones and tendons.
Although a level seven diabolic beast's parts were not high priced or precious, still they could sell those things and get a considerable number of vital energy crystals. The level seven diabolic beasts were abundantly present, so most of the cultivators would be able to make small profits which could be accumulated into a big one.
