C26 (1/2)
The Demon Hunt Squad's great hall was abnormally quiet.
Moments later, a burly black robed cultivator walked out. He looked at Zhou Qing and sneered, ”Kid, you're quite bold. You actually have the same goals as me. However, with your peak Opening Spirit Realm cultivation level, what qualifications do you have to form a team with a Condensing Reality Realm cultivator? ”
”It's Wild Axe Wang Liang, late stage of the Spirit Condensation realm!”
Someone's expression changed, and he said in a low voice.
The black robed cultivator held a crude battle axe that was about half the height of a man. Its surface was stained with dried black blood, and the two inscription patterns were extremely eye-catching.
Zhou Qing's eyes lit up. This person had a strong stench of blood, so he should be a Demon Hunter. Moreover, he was at the late stage of Soul Formation with a mid-grade magic tool. He was very powerful.
However, the latter did not seem to be angry at all. He grinned and said, ”According to the information, besides having tyrannical strength, the Green Winged Dragon Eagle also controls twenty other Scorching Green Fire Eagles. Although each one is only at the peak of the Spirit Opening Realm, they possess an extremely fast speed.
Zhou Qing did not care about the look in their eyes, and directly said: ”You are right, if you want to kill the Green Winged Dragon Eagle, you must first eliminate the twenty Scorching Green Fire Eagles. With your cultivation, naturally you are not afraid, but if you kill them, you will also consume a large portion of your spirit energy.
Hearing this, Wang Liang's face changed slightly. What Zhou Qing had said was precisely the problem that had been bothering him the entire time.
”Of course, you can gather a few late stage Soul Condensation disciples to form a group. There is a high chance of getting rid of the Green Winged Dragon Eagle. However, although that demon was covered in treasures, it only had one. Both of them are at the late stage of Soul Formation, how can you split the spoils? ”
Zhou Qing continued to speak confidently.
”I'll take a step back. You can also bring a few early and mid stage Soul Condensation cultivators to form a team and have them deal with the twenty small ones. Afterwards, I'll help you deal with the larger one …” I suppose that's what you were going to do? ”
Wang Liang harrumphed coldly. He did not reply, but his heart was shocked.
Zhou Qing was right. This was indeed his idea. Today, he had come to the Demon Hunt Squad's great hall to gather the people he needed.
”I alone am enough to deal with those twenty Fiery Blazing Eagle. You can attack the Green Winged Dragon Eagle together, and the chances of success are higher.” ”Moreover, I only want its blood essence.”
Zhou Qing finished his last sentence with a smile and then no longer spoke.
Zhou Qing displayed absolute confidence. No one present dared to mock him.
The terrifying battle record of 'Berserker Points' was known to everyone. Zhou Qing was not speaking crazy words. Although he was at the peak of the Spirit Opening Stage, he had the strength to do so.
Wang Liang was silent. He had spoken with Zhou Qing because he saw that the other party wanted a very low reward. Originally, he had wanted to threaten them and force them to join the cannon fodder division.
Wang Liang's expression kept changing. After a long time, he finally spoke in a cold voice, ”Then I'll believe you this once.” But if I find out that you are just a powerless trash, I will never forgive you! ”
Zhou Qing didn't care about Wang Liang's threat. They were just using each other.
”Middle stage Soul Formation cultivator, who else wants to go?”
Wang Ming called out and began to gather everyone else's hands.
”Crazy Axe” Wang Liang and ”Points Berserk Demon” Song Changqing had formed a team, and the probability of them killing the Green Winged Dragon Eagle was extremely high. Very soon, three people stood up and joined the party.
A beautiful middle-aged woman, a middle-aged man in his forties, and a young man holding a long spear were all at the middle stage of the Soul Formation stage.
The middle-aged woman wanted the Dragon Eagle Plume, the middle-aged man wanted the Dragon Eagle Blood and Flesh, and the young man wanted the Dragon Eagle Claw. The young man wanted the Dragon Eagle Plume, and the middle-aged woman wanted the Dragon Eagle Flesh and Blood, and the young man wanted the Dragon Eagle Claw.
In the lush forest a hundred miles east of White Ridge City.
Zhou Qing led the way at the front with a calm expression. The other three people followed closely behind, while Wang Liang stood at the very back of the group.
This order was suggested by the middle-aged man, but no one else had any objections.
Although he did not say it explicitly, everyone, including Zhou Qing, knew that he was being used as cannon fodder.
Although Zhou Qing was a bit unhappy, he did not resist.
If he was unable to kill the Green Winged Dragon Eagle by himself, he would have to borrow the power of these people to do so. Now was not the time to fall out with them.
After killing the Winged Dragon Eagle, if these people obediently followed the plan, Zhou Qing would not take the initiative to take the treasures. He only wanted to get the Demon's blood essence and break through to the Spirit Condensation realm as soon as possible.
But if someone had a change of heart, then he didn't mind taking action and making a windfall.
Ancient forest was vast, and demons and monsters ran amok along the way. However, after sensing the powerful auras emanating from these people, they all avoided them, not daring to provoke them.
Occasionally, a few blind fiendish demons would take action, but they were also stabbed by Zhou Qing's sword.
At sunset, the five finally arrived at the depths of the ancient forest.
This was a rocky and serene valley. Looking around, there were no signs of any monsters. It was so calm that it was somewhat eerie.
”This is where the Green Winged Dragon Eagles live. Aside from the twenty Fiery Blaze Eagles guarding the entrance to the canyon, the other demons don't dare to enter.”
Wang Liang observed for a moment before speaking in a low voice.
Everyone raised their heads and looked. Sure enough, in the corner of the deep valley stood an enormous eagle nest. At the entrance of the valley, there was a densely-packed group of eagle with scarlet feathers.
The beautiful woman, Liu Ru's voice turned gentle: ”That bastard just laid an egg two days ago and is currently weak. Three quarters of his strength is at his peak, so now is the best time to attack.”
”Kid, you go first and lead those Scorching Green Hawks further away.”
Wang Liang opened his mouth, and seeing Zhou Qing nod his head, he instructed the others, ”After the Azure Flaming Hawks are lured away, all of you follow me into the canyon. We'll directly attack that beast.”
”Don't hold back, use your full strength. If anyone dares to be careless and get caught by me, I will hack them to death with my axe! ”
Wang Liang's tone was cold as he waved the battle axe in his hand. The other three people's faces changed slightly as they hastily nodded their heads.
Puff.
Zhou Qing's feet tapped the ground and his body flew out like a ghost towards the ravine.
Just as they were about to step into the canyon, a sharp eagle cry that contained a furious aura suddenly sounded from within!
”Plop!”
As this eagle cry resounded across the sky, the Azure Flaming Eagle, which was quietly resting on the cliff wall earlier, was suddenly alarmed. The sound of flapping wings immediately sounded one after another.
Almost at the same time, the twenty Scorching Green Flaming Eagles violently attacked Zhou Qing as if they were a menacing sea of flames.
This aura was so powerful that even Wang Liang and the rest, who were hiding in the shadows, had a slight change in their expressions. The gazes that they used to look at Zhou Qing with were faintly tinged with worry.
