The Tobu Mountain Range, bordering the Xuanyu Mountain Range where the Xuanyu Sect is located, is only a dozen miles apart.

In the mountains, dangers lurk, and just on the periphery, there are countless wild beasts.

Go a little deeper, and you can even encounter a powerful beast that has mastered the demonic energy, that is, a demon beast.

Demon beasts are different from beasts, they are born to sense the aura of heaven and earth and cultivate, slowly evolve, mutate, and have extremely strong strength.

The demon beast that can master the demonic energy, the weakest demon beast, is also comparable to the martial artist of the fifth layer of the condensing vein.

Moreover, demon beasts are violent by nature, and often have poor living conditions, and their fighting ability generally exceeds that of martial artists in the same realm.

In other words, the real combat power of a first-order demon beast is generally on par with that of a martial artist of the sixth layer of the condensation vein

With Xiao Ping's current realm of the third layer of the condensation vein, even if the Flying Rain swordsmanship is small, at most it is comparable to a martial artist of the fourth layer of the condensation vein, with such strength, encountering a demon beast alone is definitely a dead end.

He didn't go directly to the Tobu Mountains, but went to a small town at the foot of the Tobu Mountains.

The town is called Qingxing Town, because it is close to the Tobu Mountains, and the largest crowd in this town is those mercenaries who lick blood all day long.

They were all warriors from towns near the Tobu Mountains, and they came here in groups to hunt monsters and sell monster materials in exchange for money.

And this Qingxing Town naturally became a place for them to temporarily repair their foothold after hunting demon beasts.

Walking on the streets of Qingxing Town, Xiao Ping, who was slightly thin and immature, was in stark contrast to those rugged mercenary men, which attracted a lot of passers-by.

Ignoring those strange eyes, Xiao Ping walked with great interest, looking at the shops, pharmacies, weapons shops, etc. on both sides of the street.

Although he was very interested in those weapons and armor, elixir elixir, cherished materials, etc., Xiao Ping was now penniless, and when he entered, he could only look at his greed, so he had to take a few looks, and then hurried by.

Xiao Ping walked towards the place with the most crowds, and sure enough, after walking a few streets, a huge large tent appeared in his sight.

On the tent, there is a plaque with five big characters written on it.

"Qingxing Mercenary Station".

Xiao Ping stopped.

There is a certain danger in entering the Tobu Mountains alone, so Xiao Ping plans to join a mercenary team and enter the mountains together.

Xiao Ping's martial arts realm, among these mercenaries, can only be regarded as average.

Just because he is a sword cultivator, the combat power of sword cultivation is often one level higher than his own realm.

Moreover, sword cultivation has destructive power that other martial artists cannot match, and when hunting demon beasts, it is easy to inflict a fatal blow.

Therefore, any mercenary team will not mind that there is a sword cultivator in the team.

With this advantage, Xiao Ping still has a good chance of joining a mercenary team.

When Xiao Ping entered the mercenary office, there were already a lot of people in the station, and all the people who came and went were mercenaries.

They were all walking back and forth, rushing for tasks, so no one noticed the inconspicuous teenager who had just entered.

Xiao Ping was also happy to be quiet, looking around as he walked.

After walking a few steps, Xiao Ping saw some mercenaries shouting hard.

It seems that they want to recruit new mercenary members.

This kind of team is generally the kind of temporary mercenary team, and the task will be dispersed as soon as it is completed, and the trust and tacit understanding between the team members are naturally not as good as the old mercenary team that has cooperated for a long time.

But Xiao Ping, a newcomer, can't join that kind of old mercenary team, so he can only settle for the second, his original idea was to choose a temporary mercenary team.

At this moment, although there are more than a dozen teams shouting and recruiting people in the office, there are many choices.

But Xiao Ping leaned against the corner of the wall and calmly observed, which temporary team of people looked more reliable

After all, it was to hunt demon beasts, not to go on vacation, Xiao Ping had to be cautious.

Just as Xiao Ping was observing, there was a sudden commotion in the center of the mercenary station.

At the same time, a loud shout reached everyone's ears.

"The veteran mercenary group, the Fire Snake Mercenary Team is recruiting, and there is only one place! Because in order to develop potential new permanent members, the realm requirements are not high, as long as they exceed the fourth layer of the condensation vein, but the age requirement is under twenty years old.

Gifted young people, hurry up!"

This shout made the noisy mercenary station slightly quiet, and everyone looked at each other for a while, and after that, countless young mercenaries who thought they had good talent immediately scrambled to squeeze forward.

Looking at the mercenaries in front of him who suddenly went crazy and squeezed forward, Xiao Ping was slightly stunned.

He even saw a few rough men, not to mention twenty, I was afraid that they would be over thirty, and they were actually squeezing forward vigorously.

The Fire Snake Mercenary Team is a veteran mercenary group in Qingxing Town, and its strength can squeeze into the top three of all mercenary teams.

The cooperation and tacit understanding between the team members, that is not to say.

Entering the mountains with such a team naturally gives a lot more security for life.

Xiao Ping pondered for a moment, didn't say a word, and joined the crowd.

"You can't do it! The realm is unstable, you just broke through, let's come back next time." ”

"You?The realm is enough, but you have fine skin and tender meat, let alone hunting demon beasts, I'm afraid you don't have any experience in the wild, although it is to recruit newcomers, but it is not to be a little white, you better take a look." ”

"You...... Big brother, can you go and look in the mirror, you have more beard than me, you are under twenty years old, and I am an idiot?"

The middle-aged man who was surrounded by the crowd and was in charge of recruiting people for the Fire Snake Mercenary Team eliminated all the people who were crowded in front of him one by one.

In the end, it is a well-known fire snake mercenary group, although it is to recruit newcomers to cultivate, but the threshold is still quite high, and it is not all stinky fish and shrimp.

"Hey, it seems that today's people are still not good, and they are going to be disappointed again. ”

The middle-aged man shook his head, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and looked at dozens of them in succession, but he was not satisfied, and he was already planning to leave.

"Wait, this senior, do you think I can do it?"

Xiao Ping squeezed in front of the middle-aged man, panting a little, and his voice came out slowly.

......
