Easy Way of Cultivation: Power Harvesting-Chapter 143 - 83: Sword Intent Sublimation, Demon Heaven Alliance_3
"How do demon hunters receive missions?"
From the moment he received the waist token, he was already a demon hunter, but no one told him how to hunt demon fiends or where to take missions.
Long Xueyi shook her head, "Demon hunters don’t get assigned missions. You have to find the demon fiends yourself. That’s also my main task as a pathfinder."
Wei Fan was stunned. How to find them?
If he could find where the demon fiends were, he would have gone to kill them himself instead of waiting at the Demon Suppression Bureau every day for missions.
"Did you forget the Qi Collection and Demon-Hunting Technique you learned? That’s how demon hunters search for demon fiends. I know you want to say that you haven’t collected any demon fiend aura, but you don’t need to worry about that. At this year’s Donglin Grand Assembly, you’ll have the chance to collect a lot of demon fiend aura.
In the future, if you run out, you can trade with other demon hunters."
This is not easy to find.
The Human Race can conceal all their aura, making it impossible for demon fiends to track them, so demon fiends likely have similar methods.
Wei Fan waved his riding whip, "Aren’t you afraid of being tricked by other demon hunters? What if they give you the aura of a powerful demon fiend, and following it means walking to your death?"
Long Xueyi first nodded, then shook her head, "Being cautious is good, but the likelihood of being tricked by other demon hunters is small. Do you think Elder Huo just threw a demon hunter’s waist token to you, and anyone can become a demon hunter?"
Wei Fan raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t that the case?"
He had only met Elder Huo a few times, and besides his reputation as a demon with horizontal cultivation of innate talent, he really didn’t know what other qualities Elder Huo valued in him.
Looking at Zhang Xianlong and Long Xueyi, it seemed that the requirement for demon hunters was just having good talent.
Although it’s not that anyone can become a demon hunter, there didn’t seem to be any other requirements either.
Long Xueyi said, "Of course not. Martial Arts talent is only a secondary condition for becoming a demon hunter. What they look at first is the hatred for demon fiends and whether there is a heart to protect the Human Race.
You might think Elder Huo just casually handed you the waist token, but in reality, many people have gone to Yun City and thoroughly investigated your past.
In all this time, if you had ever shown mercy to a demon fiend or a bad person, you wouldn’t be a demon hunter."
Long Xueyi lifted her head, "Let me say something a bit arrogant: if you’re not a genius, you simply can’t be a demon hunter. When demon fiends encounter a demon hunter, only one can survive.
For so many years, I’ve never heard of a demon hunter being tricked by their companion using aura."
Because those who got tricked are all dead.
Long Xueyi seemed to notice this, "Those powerful demon fiends are all recorded in books, and it’s not just one demon hunter collecting aura. If even exchanging with other demon hunters to verify it never crosses your mind, then you deserve to die!"
"I’m not saying all demon hunters are trustworthy. On the contrary, I’m telling you not to easily trust any demon hunter, even me, or Zhang Xianlong whom you’ve met once, don’t completely trust them."
Wei Fan was puzzled, "Why?"
Long Xueyi said, "Demon hunters are all people who hate demon fiends. Some of them, in the mutual hunts with demon fiends, have changed their original intention. To hunt down demon fiends, sometimes they even use their fellow companions as bait for a trap.
Demon hunters have only two guidelines: One is to stay alive, and the other is to hunt demon fiends. For the second point, some people don’t care about the process anymore."
Wei Fan frowned, "Isn’t there anyone to stop this kind of harm to colleagues?"
Long Xueyi shook her head, "How to stop it? Demon hunters are inherently uncontrollable, and using colleagues as bait either means the trap fails and they both die, or it succeeds, killing the demon fiend, and the colleague is fine.
If it succeeds, there’s nothing more to say; if they die, there’s no one to hold accountable.
Especially you, a great medicine of Horizontal Cultivation of Innate, if used to set a trap, it’s almost a guarantee to lure many great demon fiends."
As they spoke, Long Xueyi seemed curious about Wei Fan’s reaction now.
The disparity given to him by demon hunters was so great; was he disappointed or resentful?
Only Wei Fan’s voice was heard, "Tell me about the Donglin Grand Assembly. You mentioned before that there would be opportunities to collect a lot of demon fiend auras. Could it be that this Donglin Grand Assembly is meant to lure demon fiends?"
Through the information seen in the waist token, Wei Fan knew that he and Long Xueyi were not the only demon hunters rushing to Donglin City.
Long Xueyi tucked her hair, not minding whether Wei Fan saw it or not, gently nodded, "Yes, you have to know that even with the Qi Collection and Demon-Hunting Technique, it’s not easy to track down a single demon fiend. Sometimes, chasing for months is in vain.
The best method is naturally to make the demon fiend appear on its own.
This time, an experienced demon hunter from the Donglin Jin Family intends to use himself as bait, enticing a group of demon fiends to come for the kill."
Nascent Soul Demon Fiends seldom eat people; it’s not because they turned vegetarians, but because at the Nascent Soul level, eating ordinary people is useless. Only powerful Celestial Martial Artists or Acupoint Martial Artists are useful to them.
The stronger the demon fiend, the more powerful the martial artist they need.
Eating ordinary people offers no benefit and, instead, presents great risk.
Wei Fan waved his riding whip again, "Don’t those demon fiends realize it’s a trap?"
Long Xueyi nodded, "So what if they do? They still have to come. The news spread by that veteran demon hunter Jin Wucheng from Donglin is about his imminent breakthrough to the Divine Realm.
The blood and flesh of a Martial Sect expert who’s about to break through to the Divine Realm would be a great tonic for demon fiends.
Moreover, just as we have demon hunters in the Human Race who specialize in hunting demon fiends, demon fiends also have a similar organization called the Demon Heaven Alliance. Even if not for flesh, they can’t allow another Divine Realm Martial Sect expert to emerge among the demon hunters.
Many times, so-called traps are ones you know are traps, yet you have no choice but to walk into them.
Just like the situation in Dingyang Town last time, those demon fiends knew it was a trap, but they still gambled on being able to kill you."
