Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally noisy surroundings fell silent in an instant.

The gazes of the surrounding people all converged on the two of them, their eyes full of shock.

"Th-that's not Fenglong from the Longhu Immortal Sect, is it?"

"Mutant Thunder Spirit Root genius, second only to Lei Yuan in the Immortal Sect!"

"The other side isn't simple either, the First Person of the New Generation of the Dongting Immortal Sect, Xu Ping'an!"

"This Fenglong is incomparably arrogant, he simply doesn't put others in his eyes, a fight is about to break out!"

Xu Ping'an's face darkened, his gaze exceptionally sharp, his tone icy as he said: "You'd better watch your mouth!"

Although he had a gentle disposition, he was absolutely not someone to be toyed with; these words had touched his bottom line.

Even though the person before him was the legendary strongest person of the Longhu Immortal Sect's Golden Core stage.

But he himself possessed a Heaven-grade Golden Core, held five Divine Abilities, and felt not the slightest bit inferior in his heart.

Just as they were about to turn hostile, Fenglong continued: "I am your father's junior."

Xu Ping'an froze for a moment upon hearing this, his brows still tightly locked, yet he did not make a move.

He looked at Fenglong, trying to judge truth from falsehood from the other's aura and expression.

Fenglong shrugged: "In my early years, I received your father's care, which is why I joined the Longhu Immortal Sect.

I heard you were coming to the Immortal Falling Abyss for experience training, so he entrusted me to look after you."

Xu Ping'an's tone carried a hint of doubt: "My father... had you look after me?"

"How could that be fake?"

Fenglong nodded slightly: "I see you're just about to form a team, why don't we go together?

My Thunder Spirit Root specializes in killing, your Five Spirit Roots are all-round and versatile, the two of us joining forces, we'll definitely be able to walk sideways through the Corroding Bone Forest Sea!"

After hearing this, Xu Ping'an took a deep breath, his heart greatly shaken.

How is it that wherever he goes, there are people who know his father.

If not the Central Region Li Family, then it's Fenglong of the Longhu Immortal Sect.

Moreover, not a single one of them is to be underestimated.

But on second thought, Fenglong's strength is formidable, an Earth-grade Golden Core paired with a Thunder Spirit Root, his killing power extremely strong; teaming up with him would indeed greatly increase the team's combat power.

Fenglong raised his brows: "How about it?"

Although the main body had him take good care of his "son".

But to maintain his persona, if the other party refused, he couldn't force the matter.

"Good."

Xu Ping'an nodded in agreement: "I was just planning to form a Hunting Demon Team, to hunt thousand-year Great Demons; you're willing to join, that couldn't be better."

The news of the two reaching a consensus directly blew the pot open.

Xu Ping'an, holder of Five Spirit Roots, Heaven-grade Golden Core, both talent and strength belong to the top tier below Nascent Soul.

Fenglong, genius of the Longhu Immortal Sect, Earth-grade Golden Core, Thunder Spirit Root, in the Tianyuan Realm's cultivator rankings below Nascent Soul, he even ranks first.

These two great geniuses actually teamed up!

The surrounding cultivators were all shocked, quite a few people's eyes burning hot.

You have to know, whether it's Xu Ping'an or Fenglong, either one alone is a proper "thick thigh" level figure; as long as you join their team, safety in the Immortal Falling Abyss would greatly increase, and there'd even be a chance to hunt thousand-year Great Demons, obtaining rare resources.

For a moment, quite a few cultivators surged forward, wanting to join the team.

"Dao Friend Xu, Dao Friend Feng, I'm Golden Core Early Stage, Metal Spirit Root, skilled in close-combat armor breaking!"

"I'm a Wood Spirit Root, can heal injuries, and can also sense the aura of demons in the surroundings, joining the team would absolutely be useful!"

"I come from the Liehuo Family, Fire Spirit Root, willing to join the team!"

Countless voices poured into their ears, Xu Ping'an and Fenglong couldn't help but look at each other.

Fenglong raised his hand and pressed down, the scene instantly falling silent; he then said: "We're forming a Hunting Demon Team, not accepting all comers.

The team minimum is five people, maximum no more than seven, and Spirit Roots must complement each other, strength must meet the standard; not just anyone can join."

As soon as the words fell, most people's faces darkened, shaking their heads as they left.

With Xu Ping'an and Fenglong's strength, their requirements for team members would certainly not be low; only true geniuses would have a chance to be selected.

Just then, a woman dressed in a white long skirt walked over slowly, the crowd automatically parting a path, no one daring to stop her.

The woman's appearance was peerlessly beautiful, her temperament cold and clear, a bone-chilling aura swirling around her.

At her waist hung a jade pendant engraved with the two characters "Yao Yue", clearly a disciple of the Yao Yue Immortal Sect, one of the Three Great Immortal Sects.

"That's Su Qinghan of the Yao Yue Immortal Sect?"

"Immortal Maiden Su, likewise an outstanding talent among the new generation!"

"She refused many Hunting Demon Teams' invitations, didn't expect she'd actually take the initiative to find Xu Ping'an!"

Su Qinghan's voice was cold and clear, yet full of confidence: "I am an Ice Spirit Root, skilled in battlefield control and ranged attacks.

My Ice System Spells can freeze demons, creating attack opportunities for you two, and can also resist the erosion of Corpse Spirit Mist."

The moment she saw her, Li Yueyao's heart tightened, unexpectedly giving rise to a trace of hostility.

Her gaze would look at the other, then at herself, as if making a comparison.

Fenglong spoke first: "Good, you can join."

He knew this person, the daughter of Su Qinglan of the Yao Yue Immortal Sect.

Of course, mentioning Su Qinglan might leave most people unfamiliar.

But if one mentions Yao Xianzi Su Qingyao, many more people would know.

Su Qingyao is the Elder Sister, Su Qinglan is the Younger Sister.

Su Qingyao has a daughter named Su Tiantian, who is now the Dao Companion of Xu Changqing's Second Senior Brother.

Moreover, Su Qinghan's Ice Spirit Root can indeed complement them, and ice-type crowd control is indispensable in hunting demon battles; what's more, this girl's cultivation has already reached the standard.

Su Qinghan nodded slightly and stood quietly beside the two of them.

Seeing this, Li Yueyao couldn't help but move closer to Xu Ping'an's side.

Immediately after, a few more people joined.

A young man dressed in a Green Robe, with a gentle temperament, was Mo Chen of the Qingyun Sect of the Hidden World Dao Sect.

He has a Wood Spirit Root, Golden Core Middle Stage cultivation, excels at healing, and can use Lingti to sense surrounding Spirit Power Waves and demon traces.

A burly, sturdy man, from the Tiedao Sect of Xiyu, named Shi Feng.

Metal Spirit Root, Golden Core Early Stage cultivation.

Flesh Body is powerful, excels at close combat and armor-breaking, wielding a Xuan Iron Great Blade weighing a thousand jin.

There was also a woman dressed in a blue skirt, from the Nanyue Five Sons, called Jiang Weirui.

Water Spirit Root, Golden Core Early Stage cultivation, excels at water-type spells and detoxification, able to purify Corpse Spirit Mist and demon venom.

Also excels at drawing various High-grade Talismans, and has quite a reputation in this area.

Besides, many other Xiuxian Zhe applied to join.

But either their Spiritual Roots duplicated existing Team Members, or their cultivation was insufficient, or their strength was lacking; all were rejected one by one by Xu Ping'an and Fenglong.

After a round of screening, a seven-person Hunting Demon Team was finally confirmed.

Xu Ping'an, Fenglong, Li Yueyao, Su Qinghan, Mo Chen, Shi Feng, Jiang Weirui.

This team's configuration can be called perfect; Spiritual Roots complement each other, offense and defense both covered, not only having Xu Ping'an and Fenglong as two top combat powers, but also Su Qinghan's crowd control, Mo Chen's healing and scouting, Shi Feng's close combat, Murong Xi's detoxification, and Li Yueyao's logistics.

"This team, I'm afraid it can squeeze into the top three?"

"Not just that; with Xu Ping'an and Fenglong, it's estimated to rank first!"

"With a team like this, I really want to join too!"

After the news spread, it made many people envious.

Team formation complete, everyone rested and reorganized at the Outpost, supplementing supplies.

Mo Chen drew a map of the Corroding Bone Forest Sea, marking known safe routes and demon-dense areas.

Taking advantage of the night, everyone studied it carefully.

Until the next day the Sun rose, the Miasma weakened slightly, only then did they set off together!
