Chapter 1607 Taking Notice



Chapter 1607 Taking Notice

  Everyone quickly spread, following the map that Roan provided them. He marked different points on the map which should be used to capture specific types of demon beasts. That alone would already make everyone’s work much easier.

However, Roan also asked for a few of them to stay behind, like Fosxin. “Your tasks will be harder than the others. Demon beasts with similar cultivation to yours won’t be of any use for your training, so I want you all to capture demon beasts one stage higher than yourselves.”

Soon after, he looked at Luan, who was by his side. “In your case, all the demon beasts that you capture have to be at least one entire realm higher than yours. Anyways, we’ve talked about it already.”

Luan nodded in response. “Yes, father. I will get them.”

However, Fosxin looked at Luan at that moment, asking, “Are you saying I’m weaker than this kid?”

Roan coldly smiled, saying in response, “He’s already in the Initial Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. What about you?”

Luan spent most of his time with Roan, so not many knew him or checked his cultivation before. Sure enough, Fosxin was shocked to hear that. He then used his Divine Sense to check if Roan was telling the truth. Luan was an entire realm above Fosxin, but since Roan mentioned him, he let his cultivation open so that others could see it.

Fosxin wasn’t exactly a nice guy. He was cunning and relied mostly on his own strength. Luan was obviously much younger than him, but his cultivation was an entire realm above. “So that’s what you get for being the sect master’s son. How much I wish I was in your place.”

Luan shook his head, replying, “I’m not his real son, but I like to call him father. I was just like you before, someone father picked on the side of the street. I just happen to have been in father’s care for much longer than you.”

Fosxin still didn’t like it. “So be it. However, why am I not tasked to get demon beasts an entire realm above mine? With the cultivation technique I got from the System Sect and the sect master’s training, I should be at least that strong, no?”

Roan shook his head. “You aren’t. I’ve been keeping a close eye on you, and you definitely have talent. However, you’re truly overestimating your strength. I reckon that you would be able to fight two stages above your own level if you go all out. That’s why I asked you and the others here to capture demon beasts one stage above yourselves. It will be difficult, but it will be enough to put your strengths to the test.”

Though, Roan added right after. “Of course, if any of you think you can deal against stronger demon beasts, then, by all means, go ahead and try. I will not stop you, but I won’t be there to save you either.” In fact, the same thing was applicable to Luan. Roan believed he could fight stronger demon beasts if he put his all into it. However, he didn’t want to overdo it. That’s why he only considered a single realm higher.

Luan couldn’t be compared to the twins, who could fight average cultivators almost two entire realms above themselves. If they went all out, and especially if they fought together, two entire realms of difference wasn’t impossible. However, he was definitely growing to become somewhat close to them in the future.

Fosxin then looked at Tian Bao after that. Tian Bao was another one who got a very high battle score. “I don’t like making groups, but I’m not satisfied with being behind this kid. How about it? Wanna join forces to capture a few higher-level demon beasts?”

Tian Bao wasn’t as competitive as Fosxin, but he admitted he didn’t like being behind either. “Sure. However, that also means we will have to capture twice the number of demon beasts if we wanna retain our weapons.”

Fosxin snorted in response, telling him, “With me here, twice will be far from the number we’ll get.”

Roan didn’t mind that since such a thing could still create good training. Not to mention that they were disciples of his sect. There was nothing wrong with them joining forces if they were compensating it with higher-level demon beasts. “Then I’ll be looking forward to the demon beasts you bring over. Remember, not crippled or dead. They have to be able to recover so that they will live in the Dimensional Realm.”

”Understood.” Fosxin and Tian nodded in response.

As for the rest, they didn’t seem to want to do the same thing as those two, so they stuck with demon beasts one stage higher than themselves for now.

Eventually, the top fighters also left in different directions to look for the demon beasts required for the Dimensional Realm.

Seeing that, Rean couldn’t help but ask Roan, “Is it really okay to let them do that?”

Roan nodded, replying, “That’s their decision. If they die because of that, then they have only themselves to complain.” Roan was relaxed, not minding such things at all.

Rean shrugged his shoulders and prepared to go back into the Dimensional Realm. “Well then, I’m heading back. Let me know if someone with grievous injuries appears. Then again, you should be more than enough to handle healing them anyway.” Soon after, Rean disappeared.

For the next few days, the System Sect’s group operated in the demon beast forest. The other cultivators there were especially surprised since this new group seemed to only attack demon beasts similar to their own level. If they wanted to make a profit, there was no need to risk that much. 

Nevertheless, their strength was also recognized. All of them seemed to be able to fight the demon beasts without issues. It’s just that no one understood why they didn’t kill them. After all, the demon beast materials that could be sold were their Demon Cores and body parts.

However, things didn’t continue that peacefully for long. With so many demon beasts disappearing, the high-level demon beasts in the core region ended up taking notice of what was happening.
