Chapter 31: The Hunt Begins
Next, the six elders reiterated the rules of the grand ceremony selection as in previous years.
The time for the first level of the Holy Flame Hunt was set for half an hour later, and now everyone was preparing for their own lives.
The hunting ground was also set on the periphery of the Hengtian Mountain Range as before, so as early as two days ago, the sect sent a group of inner disciples to clean up the hunting ground.
Yang Qing also walked towards the entrance of the mountain range with the disciples in charge of the hunting ground with the disciples, due to the large number of inner disciples, the entrance was divided into a total of eight, according to the list set by the sect, Yang Qing was assigned to the sixth entrance.
Although many of the disciples were distinguished, there were still quite a few people at the entrance, and as the Holy Flame bell rang again, signaling the beginning of the hunt, the many disciples crowded at the entrance rushed towards the mountain range one after another.
Those who participated in the hunt this time were all stronger than the eightfold strength of the Spiritual Realm, because the minimum threshold for entering the Inner Gate was the eightfold strength of the Spiritual Realm.
But having said that, there are not many people who can enter the inner gate with the strength of the Eightfold Realm, usually at the peak of the Ninefold Realm, or who have already broken through the Psychic Realm to enter the inner gate.
However, there are also a very small number of people whose strength has broken through the psychic realm but still stays in the outer gate, just like Hua Xiong, he just didn't seize the opportunity in the last selection and was brushed down, which led to the psychic realm still not entering the inner door.
But because of his existence, many disciples of the outer sect feel desperate, after all, the number of inner disciples is limited every year, and the stronger the strength, the irreparable advantage in the three selections.
According to the rules of previous years, the first Holy Flame Hunt is to hunt the demon beasts on the periphery of the mountain range, so as to obtain the Holy Flame Points, the time of this hunt is three days, and the sect will close the hunting ground at this time after three days.
At the same time, there is also a passing line for this hunt, that is, six hundred holy flame points, but the demon beasts hunted are also divided by rank, the demon beasts below the fifth level of the spiritual realm are recorded as ten points, the demon beasts of the fifth to seventh level are recorded as fifty points, the eightfold demon beasts are recorded as eighty points, the nine demon beasts are recorded as one hundred points, and the demon beasts of the psychic realm are recorded as three hundred points.
And this is a big problem for the vast majority of sect disciples.
Therefore, they will all choose to complete this hunt in the form of a team, although the Holy Flame Points obtained each time are not many, but there is a lot of strength, and it is not as difficult as one person to hunt high-level demon beasts.
As long as it takes three days of unremitting efforts, 600 points are not unattainable.
Another method is to rob other people's holy flame points in the form of waiting for the rabbit, although this method is dishonorable, but there is no shortage of people who do this kind of thing.
Yang Qing walked unhurriedly in the mountains and forests, the six-hundred-point holy flame point was indeed quite difficult for ordinary disciples, and it could only be accumulated by relying on a part of luck, but for Yang Qing, whose strength was already in the fourth level of the psychic realm, it was simply a breeze.
A demon beast in the psychic realm has three hundred holy flame points, and it is enough to hunt two, but this is not Yang Qing's purpose, since he wants to become a shining point in this grand ceremony, he must come up with strengths that make others shine.
Therefore, the top prize this time has been privately booked by Yang Qing.
After walking in the mountains and forests for less than half an hour, they sparsely heard the sound of fighting with demon beasts, and it seemed that they had already started.
Since the sect has opened the condition of the three hundred holy flame points of the psychic realm demon beasts, it must indicate that there are psychic realm demon beasts in this periphery, which is also an important source of Yang Qing's holy flame points.
High-level demon beasts all have their own territory, and Yang Qing ran around some remote places, looking for high-level demon beasts as he liked.
But how can high-level demon beasts be said to be able to meet when encountered, the emphasis is still on luck, an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and there was still no trace of high-level demon beasts, but the eightfold demon beasts that entered the spiritual realm easily killed two and fought for eighty holy flame points.
At this moment, a roar came from a dark forest in front of him, and the sound should be a tiger-type demon beast.
Yang Qing rushed over along the source of the sound, but when he arrived, he saw two disciples at the peak of the Spirit Realm attacking a mountain-shaking demon tiger in front and back.
When the two of them saw Yang Qing appear, their faces suddenly became a little ugly, and there were not a few people who made up for points on the hunting ground.
And the so-called mending knife to get points is to suddenly come out of the dark to give a fatal blow when others have almost cleaned up the demon beast, and the waist card issued by the sect will automatically add the holy flame point to your waist card the moment you kill the demon beast.
Therefore, this hunt is full of reality, full of cruelty, and full of sinister people's hearts, and only with excellent skills and sharp minds can we survive the past.
Seeing that Yang Qing still hadn't left, the two of them suddenly turned dark, and one of them shouted directly: "If you know each other, hurry up and get out of me, just because you want to get points from us." ”
Originally, Yang Qing was planning to leave, but his words immediately made Yang Qing raise his eyebrows, and he squinted at them.
"Give you a lesson, let you know what it means to be in trouble. With that, Yang Qing's toes touched slightly, and the person came to the front of the Zhenshan Demon Tiger in an instant, and without a pause, he punched directly towards the head of the evil beast.
"Click!"
The movement was swift, and the punch killed him directly, and the Shaking Mountain Demon Beast fell to the ground before he even had time to let out a mournful groan.
"Ding!" At the same time, a hint came from the waist card on Yang Qing's waist, indicating that the one hundred holy flame points of the Nine Demon Beasts of the Spirit Realm had been included in the waist card.
Then Yang Qing didn't even look at them, turned around and disappeared in front of them, leaving the two of them staring at each other, and at the same time regretting his words to the point that their intestines were blue.
After leaving them, Yang Qing continued to do the same as before, and began to go all the way up, towards the inner side of the mountain range, the closer to the inner area of the mountain range, the more likely it was that the demon beasts of the Psychic Realm would appear.
Maybe today's luck is not good, after running in the mountains and forests for nearly four hours, seeing that the sun is about to set on the horizon, he still hasn't found the slightest clue of the demon beasts in the psychic realm, which has to make Yang Qing sigh, but some seven-fold and eight-fold demon beasts have killed a lot, and even caught a spider with a nine-fold peak.
Yang Qing stood on the trunk of a locust tree, looked at the sky, and said, "Let's take a nap for a while, now we can only wait until evening." ”
Normally, there are two foraging periods for monster beasts, one is at noon, and the other is at night, and the number of monsters that come out to forage at night during these two periods is much more than during the day.
One is that the monsters in the day also know how to hide themselves and avoid the hunting of their own kind and humans, and the other is that most of the monsters come out at night to move, and the probability of predation is higher than that of the day, and at the same time they can avoid humans.
As time passed, the dusk gradually faded, the twilight gradually came, and the originally dim dense forest seemed even darker at the moment, but Yang Qing, who was leaning on the branches of the trees to take a nap, opened his eyes at this time, and looked towards the south.
