Chapter 58 The Shock of the Brothers_1

The next day, a notice was posted in front of several important buildings of the family, attracting a large crowd of clan members.'Organizing a Monster Hunting Squad to hunt demonic beasts in the mountains!'

'Participants will be rewarded with varying amounts of merit points according to their cultivation level in advance. The spoils from hunting will be distributed by the team itself. The minimum requirement is a Fifth Level Qi Practice or above. Those interested should quickly register at the Enforcement Hall.'

The crowd was very lively at this time, discussing the content of the notice.

'The Luoyun Mountain Range is not like our family territory; there are many demonic beasts. For those below the Seventh Level of Qi Refinement, the risk of entering is not small.'

'But isn't Elder Wu leading the teams? With ten members per team, as long as we don't encounter Second Order Demonic Beasts, there shouldn't be much risk.'

'That may be, but the probability of encountering Second Order Demonic Beasts is not small. The rewards are high, but the risks are too. It might be better to take on more watchkeeping tasks.'

Indeed, but the rewards are truly substantial. As long as we don't run into Second Order Demonic Beasts, the gains are sure to be significant. However, I have tasks at hand and definitely won't make it for the first batch.

The comments from this cultivator resonated with some of the clan members, while a few members were tempted by the lucrative rewards to participate.

At this moment, Lin Tianhong, who had recently reached the Fifth Level Qi Practice, was flying towards the Hall of Merit on his Spirit Sword, ready to undertake a family task.

Upon landing at the entrance to the Hall of Merit and seeing a large number of clan members gathered around something, he couldn't help being drawn over.

The onlookers greeted Lin Tianhong courteously as he approached, and Lin Tianhong returned their salutations with fist-and-palm salutes.

After reading the content of the notice, Lin Tianhong began to ponder.

The Lin Family's Enforcement Hall does organize personnel to venture into the mountain range for experience, but it's usually limited to the outermost areas, mainly clearing the vicinity of a few hundred miles near the Green Bamboo Mountain Clan Territory. The scale isn't large, and as long as one doesn't go deep into the mountains, there's basically no risk.

I'm now capable of making Lingshen Pills. If I accept alchemy tasks, it's safer and the rewards are not bad either. However, I've never had any real experience, nor have I ever truly fought using magic. This could be a very good opportunity.

At this moment, Lin Tianhong was incredibly conflicted about whether to participate or not!

"Right, the sixth brother has a high cultivation level, and he has taken on guard tasks alone before. I should ask for his thoughts; maybe he'll go too!"

Deciding, a hint of joy flashed across Lin Tianhong's face as he bid farewell to the clan members and flew toward Lin Tianming's residence.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Lin Tianhong arrived outside the courtyard of Lin Tianming's home.

Lin Tianming was just about to leave for the Enforcement Hall to sign up for the Monster Hunting Squad when he encountered Lin Tianhong descending from the sky.

"Sixth brother, are you going out? I have something to ask you!"

Surprised, Lin Tianming quickly invited Lin Tianhong into the courtyard, and the two sat opposite each other. S~eaʀᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Second brother, what brings you here? Just say the word if there's anything I can help with, I will not refuse!"

"The family is organizing a Monster Hunting Squad to gain experience in the Luoyun Mountain Range. Have you heard about it?"

"I'm aware, I was just about to head to the Enforcement Hall to sign up for the Monster Hunting Squad!"

Hearing what Lin Tianming said, Lin Tianhong was overjoyed!

"That's great! I came to ask if you'd like to join me, and now it's settled. We can fight side by side!"

Surprised by Lin Tianhong's intentions, Lin Tianming knew that clan members with special skills naturally preferred safer tasks, and it was rare to find someone like Lin Tianhong who was willing to take risks.

"No time to delay, let's go to the Enforcement Hall to register right now."

The two left the courtyard together and flew toward the Enforcement Hall.

All along the way, at many core locations of the family, clusters of clan members were discussing the matter of hunting demonic beasts. Lin Tianming and Lin Tianhong did not stop.

Before long, the two appeared outside a cyan-grey pavilion, the very Enforcement Hall of the family. The two stepped inside the main hall without hesitation.

Inside the main hall, Lin Tianfeng was also there. Seeing Lin Tianming and Lin Tianhong, he immediately greeted them!

After exchanging courtesies, the three sat down together.

"Second brother, sixth brother, are you joining the Monster Hunting Squad?"

Lin Tianhong also spoke up:

"Exactly, Tianming and I want to join the Monster Hunting Squad. Big brother, have you signed up?"

```

"Of course I'm going to participate. I've already registered with Elder Wu. With me included, there are currently five people signed up. If you both join in, we can quickly reach ten people and set off."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming was quite surprised. It seemed that most of the family members were still concerned about the high risks and didn't want to participate, otherwise there wouldn't be so few.

"Big brother, take us to register!"

"Alright!"

Lin Tianfeng was very excited. He had always liked adventure and had joined the Law Enforcement Team early on, already having fought a few battles and gained rich experience.

Many in the family had grown accustomed to a comfortable life. Opting for stability was still a good thing, but without boldness, it would be difficult to cultivate to higher levels. The Lin Family needed members who dared to take risks.

The three of them stood up and walked to the depths of the grand hall, where they met Lin Shiji.

Lin Tianming and his brothers bowed with their fists clasped and explained their purpose.

Lin Shiji was quite surprised. Although he had known that Tian Ming would participate, he had not expected Tianhong to sign up as well!

Lin Shiji's expression remained calm as he spoke solemnly,

"This time is not like the minor skirmishes of the past, but a real fight against demonic beasts, and we might even encounter second-order ones. The risk is indeed not small."

"Have you thought this through?"

Lin Tianming and his company answered in unison, with conviction,

"We have thought it through!"

Lin Shilu took out a piece of beast skin and recorded the names of Lin Tianming and his companion. Then he asked for their Family Tokens. Their tokens were updated with an additional twenty merit points, and Tianming's with thirty.

"Alright, you're now registered. You'll be part of the first squad. Gather at the Enforcement Hall in seven days and then depart for the Luoyun Mountain Range."

"The additional merit points promised by the family have already been awarded to you. In these few days, prepare well, especially with elixirs and talismans. This journey won't be short, and injuries are inevitable, so try to prepare as many resources as you can!"

"Yes!"

Lin Tianming and his companions clasped their fists and left the Enforcement Hall.

Outside the grand hall, Tianfeng and his companion were all smiles, loudly boasting about how many demonic beasts they would kill, which made Tianming smile slightly.

"I'm going to the Hall of Merit to exchange some talisman paper and elixirs. Do you two want to come along?"

"Big brother, I'll come too!"

"Big brother, you two go ahead, I've already prepared in advance!"

After speaking, Tianming took out two bottles of elixirs. They were the Superior Spirit Essence Pills he had concocted himself, which he then gave to his brothers.

"Sixth brother, thank you for your kindness, but as your elder, how could I take things from you!"

"Exactly, I'm an alchemist myself, and I'm not really short on elixirs. You keep them."

"Come on, I still have plenty of elixirs. Consider this a small token of my sentiment, don't refuse it."

After Tianming's persistent insistence, they finally accepted the gift.

The three shared a knowing smile, and Tianming clasped his hands in farewell before taking off on his Spirit Sword.

Left behind, Tianfeng took an elixir out after Tianming disappeared, revealing a surprised expression.

"Second brother, take a look at this Lingshen Pill, doesn't it seem different?"

Tianhong shuddered as he looked and responded in shock,

"This... really is different, the medicinal strength feels almost stronger by a notch or two compared to regular Lingshen Pills!"

As an alchemist, although Tianhong's success rate in concocting Lingshen Pills was relatively low, having succeeded a few times, he could easily recognize the difference in the pills.

However, where these Superior Spirit Essence Pills came from was a mystery. If they were crafted by Lin Shigong, it might make sense. But if they were the work of Tian Ming, it would be truly frightening!

Time passed, and the two eventually calmed down and flew together to the Hall of Merit.
