Chapter 154: Prior To The Hunt

Within the giant god race’s group, a conversation between the two men was ongoing. These two were 10 meters tall and wore heavy plate armor, exuding a terrifying aura.

One of them was the genius, Ju Shanhai, who had reached the first grade of the Dao realm.

“I’ve already briefed you on the details of the hunt. You know what to do next, right?”

“How could I not know? ” Ju Shanhai casually replied, “All I have to do is find the geniuses and kill them.”

The other party said, “That’s right. However, there are a few of the races that you should not touch. They have already given us a lot of treasures in advance. Those treasures were used to purchase their lives.”

“Fine, fine, fine,” Ju Shanhai replied impatiently.

The other party finally said, “As for that person from the blood spirit race, do you have any plans?”

“He can’t beat me,” Ju Shanhai said confidently.

“That’s the answer I wanted to hear, and…”

“Enough already, it’s annoying!”

The other party was rendered speechless.

“Sure, you can handle yourself out there,” the other party replied.

“Get lost then! You’re so annoying! Don’t you think I know what needs to be done?”

The other party left with a smile.

Ju Shanhai was definitely confident!

Although it seemed that those twelve were all first-grade Dao realm cultivators, there was a huge gap between them.

Ju Shanhai was from the giant god race, which meant that at the same cultivation level, his unparalleled physical strength gave him a huge advantage.

His body was like that of a god’s!

Ju Shanhai did not believe that the other first-grade Dao realm participants would be able to do anything to him.

That was impossible!

Therefore, he only needed to act according to the plan and, in the end, he would definitely be able to obtain many beacons and make the giant god race even stronger!

In any case, it was normal for there to be deaths and injuries during the hunt.

There was no such thing as grudges in this hunt.

Everyone followed the same rules. If they lost, they had to admit it. If they won, they would be able to stand in front of everyone and claim the glory they deserved.

If one could not even admit defeat, then they would be looked down upon by all of the other races!

Currently, all of the participants were discussing tactics and plans. As such, even though there was a large number of people, it was actually relatively quiet as the hushed discussions continued.

The odd one out was Yuchi, who stood at the edge of the building, gazing at the mountains in the distance.

Yuchi seemed to be able to see beyond the fog into the mountains themselves..

His eyes were locked on the center of the venue of the hunt, where there seemed to be a lake that looked quite good. To others, this kind of open lake would be quite dangerous.

Being around the lake was equivalent to exposing oneself to the other participants. Their enemies would be hiding in the darkness, while they would be out in the open.

However, Yuchi was curious as to whether he could fish in this lake.

If he could, what sort of ancient existence would he be able to fight there.

He decided to check out the lake once the hunt started.

…

The next day.

The rules of the hunt were circulated. This was the complete version of the rules. Yu Shengyun had also copied the rules into a book and handed it to Yuchi.

Yuchi briefly scanned the book.

The contents were not complicated, and there were only a few key points to take note of.

First, the hunt would last for a month.

After a month, all the contestants had to leave the venue and return to the huge building to report their gains.

Of course, if they obtained a number of beacons that they were satisfied with, they could end their participation early.

Once they returned to the building, they would be protected by the Tiandu division and would be attacked. However, if they were even one step outside the building, the Tiandu division would ignore them.

Second, there were no rules prohibiting alliances during the hunt.

Third, before the start of the competition, each person would be given a jade token.

This jade token would be hung on the wrist of every participant. The function of this jade token was quite simple. It would tell the organizers if the participant was dead or alive, as well as how many beacons the participant had.

The beacons would be temporarily stored in the jade tokens after they were found.

“Yuchi! What are your plans?” Yu Shengyun could not help but ask Yuchi.

From her impression, everyone was in a state of high alert. Even the giant god race and blood spirit race did not relax their vigilance.

In comparison, Yuchi seemed to be too relaxed.

He looked more like a tourist than a participant!

“Plans?” Yuchi was confused.

“…”

Yu Shengyun’s eyes were filled with helplessness.

She knew!

This lunatic was here to die!

That had to be it!

He had not bothered to make plans at all. Did this guy treat the hunt as a walk in the park?!

Crazy!

Idiot!

Once again, she bemoaned the fact that Fan Yuhe had been killed by an idiot. It was really embarrassing.

She left angrily and ignored Yuchi.

…

The day before the competition.

Sword Heart stood on the dragon race’s floor. She was nervous.

She had thought that her first-grade Dao realm cultivation would be enough, but there were eleven participants just like her.

She had exchanged her lifespan for strength.

Was it still not enough?

Sensing that Sword Heart’s state of mind was a little unstable, the old man from the artifact spirit race beside her said in a low voice, “Preserving your life should be your first priority.”

“Survive!”

Sword Heart shook her head. If she focused on surviving, she would not be able to obtain her targeted number of beacons. She had to go all out in order to strengthen the declining artifact spirit race. If she did not succeed here, there would be no future for them.

The old man sighed.

If Sword Heart were to die…

The strength of the artifact spirit race would once again tumble to the level of a minor race.

“The ancestors will protect us.”

The old man could only say this at this time.

Sword Heart nodded heavily. She looked at the small jade token hanging on her wrist and felt the two green leaves hidden in her sleeve.

“I’ll definitely make the ancestors proud. They’ll definitely protect our artifact spirit race!”
