Chapter 51 - 51 051 Luofeng Canyon
51: Chapter 051: Luofeng Canyon 51: Chapter 051: Luofeng Canyon Some five hundred li south of Nine Immortals Mountain lay a canyon, known as Luofeng Canyon, also the destination for this external training excursion.
Typically, a Martial Arts Sect establishing a new branch would choose a location where Spiritual Energy abounds, and these places are often teeming with demon beasts.
Demon beasts devour the Blood Essence of humans to enhance their demonic power, while humans also hunt demon beasts to obtain various materials from their bodies, making each other’s prey.
Therefore, entering an area where demon beasts roam is extremely dangerous.
However, to temper their disciples and enhance their practical combat experience, Martial Arts Sects would send experienced disciples from the Magnetic Condensation Realm to lead freshly recruited entry-level disciples on outside expeditions, serving both to train them and to ensure their safety.
Relatively speaking, the danger of these nearby demon beast hunting missions is quite low.
After one becomes a disciple of the Magnetic Condensation Realm and undertakes sect-issued training missions, venturing alone into perilous areas, that is where the true life-threatening tests lie.
Of course, there are always exceptions.
Since it’s training, there are inevitably dangers.
A little carelessness can pose a threat of death at any moment.
This is the survival rule in the Martial Arts World: the strong live, the weak perish!
…
Ling Feng and Jiang Wanqing, leading their team, set off at full speed and after half a day finally arrived at the edge of Luofeng Canyon.
For the rookies who had joined the sect, it was their first time out for training, and each of them was very excited, their eyes sparkling with eagerness.
Ten teams entered the area at the same time for training.
Whichever team hunted the most demon beasts and collected the most valuable spirit flowers and herbs would be declared the winner.
However, unless the team members faced a life-threatening situation, the two team leaders were not allowed to actively help them hunt demon beasts.
They could organize and guide the team members, but could not provide direct assistance.
“We’re here.”
After cross-referencing the map, Ling Feng looked around.
The terrain was rugged and uneven, with a heavy dampness, and the ground was carpeted with dry, yellow leaves.
The entire canyon was penetrated by a branching river that stretched thousands of li, and such environments were most favored by the majority of demon beasts.
From within the dense forest came the faint sounds of tiger roars and monkey cries, filled with a raw and savage atmosphere.
“Once we enter the canyon, remember, nobody is to act alone!” Jiang Wanqing’s gaze swept over the ten team members as she spoke with a stern face.
The strength of these team members, even the strongest did not exceed the Qi Condensation Fifth Stage, and the weakest was only at the Qi Condensation Second Stage.
Their ages also varied, ranging from fifteen or sixteen to seventeen or eighteen.
In Jiang Wanqing’s view, these “children” of that age, were too young, too naïve!
Jiang Wanqing’s words fell, but the team members’ gazes turned towards Ling Feng, as if waiting for his directive.
Ling Feng was somewhat helpless and could only let out a light cough, saying indifferently, “Just listen to Senior Sister Jiang.”
Compared to her, he preferred solitude.
“Mhm!
Did everyone hear that?
Senior Ling Feng said we’re not to act on our own!” A young man with a square face called out from within the team.
This person was named Lo Jianying, the oldest and strongest among them all.
“Got it!” The other team members nodded in agreement, especially Su Hongxiu, that little girl, who kept her eyes fixed on Ling Feng, nodding her little head like a woodpecker.
Jiang Wanqing’s expression froze; it was her command, so when did it become an order from Ling Feng?
“Hmmph!” Jiang Wanqing huffed lightly, pondering in her heart that she must find an opportunity to let everyone clearly understand who the real leader is!
Ling Feng?
He was only given such an important task and valued by the sect because of his connection with the young miss of the Cangqiong Sect.
Ling Feng had no idea that he had inexplicably incurred the hatred of this little girl, Jiang Wanqing.
He glanced at the map for a location where only First-rank Demon Beasts and Second-level Basic Demon Beasts roamed and said indifferently, “Just follow me.”
“No way!” Jiang Wanqing bit her silver teeth and, with a quick step, blocked Ling Feng’s path, pointing in the opposite direction she insisted, “I’ve led the team many times, and we’ve always entered Luofeng Canyon from this side.
If you choose this route, there will definitely be no good gains!”
“Really?” Ling Feng touched his nose.
His map was different from the woman’s—the one he had was the best route!
“Certainly!” Jiang Wanqing nodded her head with conviction.
“Trust my experience, I can’t be wrong!”
Disciples like Lo Jianying and Su Hongxiu all sighed, “Ah, here we go again!”
Usually, the two team leaders would cooperate with each other.
However, this Senior Sister Jiang always seemed to sing a different tune from Ling Feng!
For example, on the way here, if it wasn’t for Jiang Wanqing’s insistence on taking a detour to avoid danger, they wouldn’t have been the last to reach Luofeng Canyon.
It was known that the other nine teams had already entered the canyon and started their training.
Ling Feng shook his head and said lightly, “Alright, you lead the way.”
He saw on the map that if they continued forward for a while, they could still loop around to his chosen path.
He’d let Jiang Wanqing throw a tantrum for a bit.
Once she suffered a setback, she would naturally learn her lesson.
“Hmph!” Jiang Wanqing scrunched up her nose, glared at Ling Feng, and thought to herself: Don’t think that just because you’ve accommodated me once or twice, I’ll forgive you!
“Everybody, follow me!”
With a wave of her hand, Jiang Wanqing led the group straight down a narrow path to the right of the canyon, moving along the river.
It was deep autumn, most of the flowers and grass had turned yellow, and waist-high dead grass was everywhere.
When the wind blew past, it was like waves of gold.
In such places where one’s feet were hidden from view, danger often lurked.
Ling Feng shook his head: This Jiang Wanqing is really causing unnecessary trouble!
Ling Feng moved to the back of the group, carefully keeping an eye on the surroundings.
Since he was leading the team, he had to be responsible for the safety of these “children.”
He seemed to have forgotten that he had entered the sect in the same batch as these new disciples, among whom there were even those who had joined before him.
Perhaps it was because he had experienced more, his mentality had matured.
“Wow, the scenery is so beautiful!” A female disciple admired the surroundings and couldn’t help but cheer.
Several male disciples immediately echoed her sentiments, and a gentle and refined young man laughed, “Yes, yes, the scenery here is indeed beautiful.
When we return, how about I paint a picture of autumn leaves and frost for junior sister?”
“That would be great!
You can paint too, senior brother?
That’s amazing!” The female disciple immediately clapped her hands, jumping with joy.
Ling Feng shook his head; these guys didn’t seem like they were out for training at all.
Instead, they seemed like they were on a pleasure trip.
Not a hint of vigilance, nor a sense of crisis!
No wonder the sect arranged this sort of training—they indeed needed to be baptized in blood to truly grow.
At that moment, the grass to the left rustled loudly, and Ling Feng was the first to spot a Tusked Pig, a very common Second-level Demonic Beast.
As the Tusked Pig approached swiftly, Jiang Wanqing immediately drew her sword and warned, “A demon beast is approaching!”
“A demon beast?
Where?
Where?”
The disciples’ expressions changed, and they frantically drew their weapons.
They were so busy playing and laughing that they hadn’t noticed the approaching crisis.
If it hadn’t been for Jiang Wanqing’s warning, although these guys were strong enough to crush the Tusked Pig, there would have likely been some casualties.
