Chapter 235: The Butcher

The so-called hunter black market can actually be understood as a hunter intermediary, or a mercenary union, or a hunter hiring platform.

However, don't think that this thing is very nondescript to appear in the immortal cultivation world, in fact, this can be regarded as a new thing that is booming.

Because at least more than fifty years ago, similar mercenaries issued missions and the like were few and far between, and they were usually enjoyed by those who knew each other well and had excellent reputations, such as the demon hunting mercenary organization in the Demon Domain.

But now it's different, after the collapse of heaven and earth, a large number of immortal beasts invaded, and as a result, the danger level of all exploration, hunting, commerce and other industries was increased several times, or even dozens of times, hundreds of times in one go.

In this case, it is a direction that anyone, any force, must and must choose.

And since it is necessary to unite, since every operation, every expedition, requires a scale of hundreds or thousands of people, then the things of centralization, recruitment, strategizing, coordinating harvests, and formulating rules will become more and more complicated, and in this case, things like intermediaries and guilds will naturally appear.

And all kinds of large, medium and small teams, all kinds of employers, are also willing to accept this new thing, just take some commissions, you can recruit a mature and strong and reputable team on a large range, a large platform or find a suitable team, why not.

A fool will run alone at this time.

What's more, this system can also avoid cheating teammates, black eating black, this kind of thing, everyone is very taboo, under the restrictions of the rules, try to avoid intrigue and deceit. That's what everybody wants to see.

No one is a fool.

In fact, in the past few decades, Duan Heng has suffered enough by himself, and now the immortal cultivation world is becoming more and more dangerous, if you don't bear the injury together, do you really want to wait for death?

Even with his self-confidence, he didn't dare to say that.

At this time, it ended with Duan Heng's self-introduction. A smiling young man on the other side was already quickly carving the corresponding information on a wooden plaque, and then handed it over respectfully with both hands.

"Senior Lin, this is your preliminary information, but according to the rules of the Hunter Black Market in Lower Qinzhou, you also need to go to the trial ground in person to determine your true strength, and then determine your specific hunter rating based on your performance, and in Cloud City, the only trial ground that is eligible for certification is in the Fifth Platform Tianzi District, oh. Senior Lin, do you need me to explain this hunter rating standard for you?"

This young man was very enthusiastic, which gave Duan Heng a feeling of returning to the modern society of the earth, but this is also normal, now the immortal cultivation realm is too dangerous, which means that the pressure of survival has increased dozens of times, and the things that used to be able to live and live a nourishing life by just finding a place to reclaim the fields are gone forever.

Now you have to live around a city with super defenses, so. Immortal cultivators at the bottom cherish their work extraordinarily.

"Tell me about it. "Duan Heng is indispensable.

"That's right, Senior Lin. You also know that today's immortal cultivation world has become more and more dangerous, so the requirements for hunters or mercenaries are getting higher and higher, according to the specific market of hunters in Lower Qinzhou, the current hunter team has been specifically divided into many levels, from a first-class hunter or mercenary group. Hunters or mercenary groups of the fifth grade are not considered, one of which has the highest evaluation, the fifth grade has the lowest evaluation, and the lower five grades are not considered, and the specific requirements of the first-grade hunter group are. The leader of the team must be an immortal cultivator at the level of the prince king, and at the same time, there shall be no less than ten immortal cultivators at the level of the grass head king in the team, and no less than one hundred immortal cultivators at the level of princes. ”

"This is true for hunters, but hunters or mercenaries also have evaluations, of course, this evaluation is much looser, there are only three criteria, butcher hunters, bone hunters and blood prison hunters, this criterion is determined according to the number and quality of targets hunted by hunters in the mission, and then this criterion will also affect the mission reward. ”

After the young man talked a lot, Duan Heng also left with a smile, although this so-called rating is very criticized, but it can also be seen how the explorer class in the immortal cultivation world is under great pressure now, this is already equivalent to a toss of life, but this is also the main reason why Duan Heng wants to join it.

He is also under great pressure.

On the fifth platform of Cloud City, Duan Heng easily found the so-called trial ground, the area was huge, with a radius of more than five hundred miles, it should have been the military camp of the garrison of Cloud City, but now it has been changed into a trial ground.

When he handed over the simple wooden card, someone immediately led him into the trial ground, which was quiet at the moment, but as soon as he walked in, Duan Heng's pupils shrank, because, in the other direction of the trial ground, a black dragon was lying on the ground, snoring and sleeping, this black dragon is afraid that it is hundreds of zhang long, this is definitely an adult black dragon, although the black dragon's body is locked by thick chains, but the terrifying aura and coercion are really terrifying.

This is a black dragon that is about to step into the half-immortal level.

In addition to this black dragon, on the side of the proving ground, it is very inconspicuous, an old man with gray hair and tattered up and down his body is sitting here, drinking spirit wine without a sip, very decadent, but his hands, feet and limbs are also locked by thick chains.

It's weird enough.

The person who led Duan Heng here was quite respectful to this old man, and without saying a word, he trotted forward and gave him a jar of spirit wine, and then carefully retreated and said to Duan Heng: "Please take action, Your Excellency's assessment standard is to go through ten moves under this senior, of course, you can use any means, you don't need to keep your hands." ”

"Don't have to keep your hands?"

Duan Heng nodded, of course he knew that this kind of character who could sit in the trial ground would never be simple, and he didn't plan to keep his hand, after all, if he didn't use the Ice Dragon Incarnation and Long Yuan, his overall strength was actually not strong.

After a slight groan, Duan Heng bowed his hand and said, "Senior." Please advise. ”

As soon as the words fell, his whole body snorted, retreated sharply, and in an instant, he flew away dozens of miles away.

"Huh? ”

The beggar-like old man was surprised at this time, and the onlookers could not see any clues. But he himself knew that Duan Heng flew away in an instant, in fact, he just avoided three consecutive kills.

Sure enough, after a few breaths, three huge crescent wind blades slowly emerged from the spot, and a faint whistling sound vibrated out, tepid, as if nothing had happened.

But Duan Heng was in a cold sweat.

This old guy turned out to be a monster who had cultivated the Wind Evil Technique to the extreme.

If it weren't for Duan Heng's own spiritual sense, which had been strengthened to a certain extent, he would have been very sensitive to the perception of danger. At this moment, he had probably been cut into three pieces.

Where is this Nima a trial?

At the same time as slandering in his heart, Duan Heng also roared, and with one hand on the ground, an earthy yellow aura rose to the sky, while his other hand was quickly sealed and carved, and in an instant, the half-hung Xuanwu rune was imprinted.

This is also the reason why Duan Heng dares to claim that he is as immovable as a mountain immortal. This Xianding is the best at defense, and he can't drop the chain at the beginning.

When the Xuanwu rune is imprinted with the earth sha. The yellow sand in the sky disappeared in an instant, and hundreds of mountain peaks appeared in front of Duan Heng, which looked quite spectacular.

But that's not a trick!

The evil qi technique is indeed based on the principle of fast, accurate and ruthless, and in the primary and intermediate stages, it is very taboo to play tricks, and the more tricks. The sooner you die, because it's all in vain.

However, this is not the whole story.

If the evil qi technique reaches a higher level, it doesn't matter if you are clever and wise.

Sometimes. That's the difference between heaven and earth

Like other immortal cultivators who are good at earth, if they make the same scene as Duan Heng here, it will be a trick, but at this moment, in Duan Heng's hands, it is completely different.

The reason is that the Xuanwu rune, even if it is half-hanging, is just as extraordinary.

At this time, in an instant, the air pressure of most of the trial ground seemed to be severely suppressed, so that the immortal cultivator who came here with Duan Heng didn't catch his breath, but he had always retreated to the very edge.

"Huh?"

The old man was surprised again, but this time Duan Heng's counterattack was the first to be launched.

Huge mountain peaks rumbled over, bringing up a violent wind, the earth trembled slightly, and everywhere it passed, the huge bluestones on the proving ground were all shattered, turned into thousands of broken stones, gathered into a black dragon, and rushed towards the old man.

At this moment, a sharp whistling sound suddenly tore through the air, tearing everything, and there was no shadow or any means of attack in sight, but the mountains that rumbled over in mid-air turned into powder in an instant, and the black dragon turned into sand and stone was honestly pressed to the ground again.

It was as if the clouds were rising and the torrential rain had stopped, and in an instant, the entire trial ground was restored to its original state again, even the broken bluestone on the ground, as if nothing had happened.

However, only Duan Heng was missing.

A little cold crystal suddenly blurred at this moment, centered on the position made by the old man, and in an instant, it skyrocketed ten million times, and a huge iceberg froze the old man with an unstoppable momentum.

Immediately after, the huge iceberg, which was at least hundreds of zhang high, began to compress frantically as if it was held by an invisible hand, and in the blink of an eye, it shrank by two or three times.

But right now.

"Bang!" There was a loud bang, and the cold ice shattered into countless pieces, followed by the old man's sneer, "That's itβ€”"

"Whoa!" There was a crisp sound, and a sword slashed through, forcibly choking the old man's words, because the wine jar in his hand at this time had been completely shattered, and the spirit wine was spilled on the ground, making him look even more embarrassed.

In the distance, Duan Heng's figure slowly emerged, with one hand behind his back, his gaze calm.

"Uh-"

The old man of the trial was stunned, and only after a long time did he smack his lips and said: "You have passed the test, but you are not martial, tsk, you actually hid a wisp of sword qi in the cold ice, so that the old man did not react, so that you fell into your plot, you are vicious enough, but you are excellent to be a hunter, well, you can be qualified for the standard of a butcher."
