Chapter 1137: Anti-Tang Alliance
“Long time no see!”
Tang Hao nodded and smiled.
Dao Jiu also smiled, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile.
The two of them were originally of the same generation, but now, because of the difference in strength, their seniority was a generation apart. He needed to look up to them.
When he thought about the past conflicts and grudges, he sighed deeply.
Tang Hao nodded at him again and walked over.
There was once a grudge between the two of them, but it had been so long, and they were no longer on the same level, so there was no need to worry about it.
“Valley Master Tang!”
Shentu Meng was there as well, and he cupped his hands and called out respectfully.
There was a woman next to him. She was different from his rough appearance. She had exquisite features and was quite beautiful.
“This is my sister!”
Shentu Meng even introduced them.
Tang Hao was startled and laughed.
“Valley Chief Tang!”
Xie Tian, as well as those young prodigies who had grudges with him in the past, were all here. All of them were a bit disturbed, not feeling too good inside.
Tang Hao smiled at them and walked over.
“Fellow Taoist Tang!”
When they arrived at the plaza halfway up the mountain, a group of people greeted them. The person at the front had a white beard and white hair, and he had an otherworldly bearing. He was a Path Seeking Realm figure.
“The Grand Supreme Leader has come out!”
The crowd was in an uproar.
“I am Kong Mingzi. Greetings, Fellow Taoist Tang!”
This person walked over, laughing heartily. When he got closer, he bowed slightly, giving a greeting of equal status.
“Greetings, Fellow Taoist Kong Ming!”
Tang Hao also bowed.
Kong Mingzi sized up Tang Hao and said emotionally, “I’m really old! I can’t keep up with the times!”
“Of course not!” Tang Hao laughed.
Kong Mingzi shook his head and laughed bitterly.
He had never heard of someone who could attempt Path Seeking at the age of twenty. When he first heard of him, he was so shocked that he thought he was joking.
Who would have thought that such a monster really existed!
“Come, let me introduce you. This is my junior brother and today’s birthday boy!”
After sighing with emotion for a while, Kong Mingzi pointed to an old man next to him and introduced.
This person was naturally Ling Qingzi, the Grand Elder of Primeval Mountain.
Tang Hao bowed slightly.
“I wouldn’t dare! I wouldn’t dare!” Ling Qingzi hurriedly waved her hands.
After greeting each other and exchanging pleasantries, a group of people headed towards the main hall. They sat in the main hall and drank wine and chatted happily.
At noon, the banquet started.
The lively atmosphere lasted until evening.
“Fellow Taoist Tang, please wait. I have something to tell you.”
Just as Tang Hao was about to leave, he was stopped by Kong Mingzi.
“Oh? What is it?” Tang Hao was startled and asked.
Kong Mingzi walked over and said, “Actually, a few days ago, Wan Qingzi and the others came to my Primeval Mountain to look for me. They wanted me to join them and deal with you together!”
Tang Hao’s expression turned grave.
“Of course I didn’t agree!” Kong Mingzi said. “However, I heard that they went to many places. Basically, all the Path Seeking Realm Cultivators of the Ninth Continent has been sought after. Most of them rejected it, but some people agreed.”
“They gathered together and formed some sort of alliance to deal with you!”
“The Tang Alliance?”
Tang Hao sneered.
“Hey! Fellow Daoist Tang, don’t be careless. They’re not weak. There were originally five of them, but now there are at least seven or eight of them! You’d better be careful!”
Kong Mingzi advised.
“I understand! Thank you!” Tang Hao cupped his hands and thanked him.
“No need to thank me! It’s just a small matter. I also don’t like them. It’s outrageous for so many old men to join hands to deal with a young man!” Kong Mingzi said.
“By the way, Taoist Kong Ming, do you know where Wan Qingzi and the others went?”
Before leaving, Tang Hao asked.
“This… I am not very sure. I only know that they went north. As for where they went, I am not too sure.” Kong Mingzi shook his head.
“Thank you!”
Tang Hao was a bit disappointed. He cupped his hands and left.
After leaving Primeval Mountain, Tang Hao headed north, stopping every now and then to use his souldrifting technique to search for Wan Qingzi’s group.
Just like that, he headed north, pa.s.sing through the north region and arriving at the north coast.
“Golden s.h.i.+p? Yes! It’s huge! It’s golden and beautiful! I saw it from afar when I was fis.h.i.+ng on the s.h.i.+p!”
In a coastal city, Tang Hao unexpectedly found traces of the gold s.h.i.+p.
“There’s the symbol of the Broken Sword! It’s in that direction, flying all the way to the outer sea.”
After receiving the news, Tang Hao did not go out to sea immediately. Instead, he found a cave in a nearby barren mountain and set up a formation. Then, his spirit left his body and transformed into a stream of light, flying out to the sea.
He searched around, searching for Wan Qingzi’s group.
The sea was vast and endless.
Tang Hao kept flying. After who knew how long, he finally found a s.h.i.+p in the vast sea.
That s.h.i.+p was ordinary and was the most commonly seen large s.h.i.+p on the sea. However, there were many figures standing on the deck of the s.h.i.+p. All of them had shocking auras and were at the Path Seeking Realm.
Wan Qingzi, Feng Boya, and the others were among them.
There were eight people in total, but three more than before.
A group of people stood there, and the s.h.i.+p did not move, as if waiting for something.
Tang Hao retracted his soul remembrance and hid in the clouds high up in the sky, spying on them to see what they were doing.
Just like that, an hour pa.s.sed.
Tang Hao became even more puzzled.
Not long after, one of them spoke impatiently as well, and he said angrily to Wan Qingzi, “Hey! I say, old geezer Wan Qing, your information isn’t accurate. We’ve been waiting here for three days, and there’s not a single trace of it!”
Wan Qingzi snorted lightly and said, “Of course it’s accurate. I’ve checked. Every once in a while, that giant whale will surface and stay for a while.”
“How long is a period of time?”
“Half a month if long, five to six days if short!” Wan Qingzi said,” Don’t be anxious, wait a little longer! Once we find the Jade Drop Bell, we can kill our way over and crush that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and revealed a ferocious expression.
Last time, when the five of them came out, they were also beaten into fleeing. It was truly humiliating!
“That brat is too evil, too despicable!”
Feng Boya and the others also cursed angrily.
After cursing for a while, they continued to wait.
Another half a day pa.s.sed, and suddenly, there was movement on the surface of the sea. It started to ripple violently, as if some enormous creature was rus.h.i.+ng out from the bottom of the sea.
The seawater rose higher and higher. Finally, with a whoosh, an indescribably large whale rushed out from the sea, bringing with it a ma.s.sive tide that reached a hundred thousand feet.
“Haha! Look, I’m not wrong, am I? Quick, go in. The Jade Drop Cavern is inside its stomach!”
Wan Qingzi laughed loudly, showing joy.
He took the lead and charged towards the giant whale.
