Chapter 684: A Full Perfected Person!

Tang Hao got into the car, picked up his phone, and made a call to General Bai.

He had to confirm whether the Liu family was behind the attack.

He should have someone keeping an eye on the Liu family, but somehow he did not receive any forewarning.

“What? Something like that happened?”

On the other end of the call, General Bai immediately jumped.

“Where did you say that half-step Perfected Person was from? Sky Mountain? I’ve never heard of it!” General Bai was also at a loss.

“The Liu Family? That can’t be! The important figures of the Liu family have always been under our surveillance. I’ll get someone to check it out.”

After a while, General Bai returned the call and cursed angrily, “Dammit! That d.a.m.ned old man is quite cunning. He slipped away using a subst.i.tute and fooled our people.

“Now, that d.a.m.ned old man is not in the Capital. That pretty much confirms it. The Liu family is behind this!”

Tang Hao sneered and said, “Now that they’re picking a fight with me, don’t blame me for returning the favor!”

“Don’t be rash, Comrade Tang Hao. You can’t just kill people as you wis.h.!.+ Let me decide for you in this matter. If the Liu family are the ones causing trouble, then we’ll tip them off and let them be punished by the law.

“The Liu family runs a big business. It’ll be too easy to dig up some dirt and get them arrested,” General Bai hastily said.

“Then let’s do it now!” Tang Hao said, “Otherwise, I’ll do it myself.”

“Okay! Don’t worry. I’ll make the arrangements right away! It might take some time. You know, we still have to investigate. We can’t arrest them immediately,” General Bai said.

“Do it as soon as possible!” Tang Hao said.

After ending the call, Tang Hao called the Taoist Master Zhen Yang.

“It’s Fellow Cultivator Tang! Are you home yet?” Taoist Master Zhen Yang said cheerfully.

“I just arrived!” Tang Hao said, “By the way, Taoist Master, do you know Sky Mountain?”

“Sky Mountain?”

Taoist Master Zhen Yang was surprised and muttered, “That sounds familiar. Oh! I remember now. Why, Fellow Cultivator Tang, why do you ask this? How do you know Sky Mountain?”

After a pause, he continued, “I haven’t heard about Sky Mountain for decades! They’ve disappeared for a long time. Let me calculate, it has been about fifty years.”

“Fifty years?” Tang Hao was surprised.

“Yes! It’s been quite a long time. I thought they’ve become just a name in history! Back then, Sky Mountain was quite powerful. It didn’t have as many people as Mao Mountain, but the quality of their cultivators did not lose to us.”

“Why did you suddenly ask about Sky Mountain, Fellow Cultivator Tang?”

“It’s nothing. I just traded a few blows with one of them!” Tang Hao said.

“What? What happened?”

Tang Hao briefly explained the matter.

“Outrageous! The Liu family has gone overboard. How dare they hire someone to deal with you? That guy from Sky Mountain is also an idiot. He’s being deceived by the Liu family.”

“Don’t worry, Fellow Cultivator tang! Isn’t it just Sky Mountain? Mao Mountain isn’t afraid of them. I’ll kill them all if they come and look for trouble!” Taoist Master Zhen Yang said angrily.

Tang Hao smiled and said, “Thank you. However, I can still handle them for now.”

“Alright then. If there’s anything, give me a call. I will immediately gather our people and rush over,” Taoist Master Zhen Yang thumped his chest and said.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Hao sat in the car with a pensive look on his face.

From the Taoist master’s explanation, Sky Mountain was indeed quite powerful. They had equally powerful cultivators as Mao Mountain.

Mao Mountain had two full Perfected Persons.

That old fellow had also said that he had several senior brothers who were more powerful than him.

If they came over together, he would not be able to defeat them all with his current cultivation base.

“Looks like… I have to make the pills as soon as possible,” Tang Hao muttered.

He drove the car into the residential area, returned home, sat down cross-legged in the living room, and took out some ordinary medicinal ingredients. He would use those to make pills as a warm-up.

Soon, a night pa.s.sed.

At around six o’clock in the morning, he received a call from General Bai.

“Dammit, Ol’ Liu ferried his people away. He had an unstoppable expert to help him! We didn’t dare give chase, and now we don’t know where they went.”

General Bai was fl.u.s.tered and exasperated.

Tang Hao’s expression changed slightly, “How many people were with him?”

“Many. They’re all his direct descendants and important figures of the Liu family. That expert even injured many of our people. Grrr!” General Bai said angrily.

“They should’ve gone up Sky Mountain, don’t you think so?” Tang Hao said.

Currently, the only safe place for the Liu family was Sky Mountain.

“That should be the case! Where is this Sky Mountain? If I ever find out their location, I’ll send a barrage of missiles and blow them up!”

Tang Hao’s expression was sullen as he ended the call.

“Old Man, do you think you’ll be safe just because you’re hiding in Sky Mountain? If you don’t come out, I’ll hunt you down!”

He chuckled coldly as he said that.

He did not go to his cla.s.ses that day. Instead, he stayed at home to practice making pills. When he felt confident, he started working on the actual thing.

He took out all the ingredients and organized them into two portions.

The first time, there was a small problem during the fusion process, and the furnace exploded.

He was even more careful the second time. He refined the materials one by one and successfully fused them together. As the pill continued to purify in the furnace, he took out a gourd.

When he opened the cap, a soul rushed out and prepared to escape.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Tang Hao shouted.

He reached out, grabbed the soul, and stuffed it into the pill furnace to fuse it with the pill-embryo.

Half an hour later, the pill successfully came out of the furnace and fell into Tang Hao’s palm.

The pill was sparkling and transparent like a crystal. Inside, smoke gathered and dispersed, occasionally condensing into the shape of a spirit skate.

There were faint patterns on the surface of the pill. It was like a fish scale, glowing with a faint five-colored light.

“It’s done!”

Tang Hao grinned, overjoyed.

With the pill, he would be able to break through to the State of Foundation Establishment. At that time, he would be a full Perfected Person!

He rested for a while, then left home and went to a desolate mountain range in the countryside. He found a secluded valley, sat down cross-legged, and swallowed the pill.

After swallowing the pill, it exploded and turned into waves of qi that surged into his limbs and bones.

His entire body trembled. A wave of translucent ripples emanated from him.

His body absorbed the pill, and his cultivation base rose steadily.

At the same time, the skin and physical qualities of his body were undergoing changes.

His skin became even fairer and more tender, just like a baby. It was as if he had been reborn once again.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, and the aura on his body slowly dissipated.

He clenched and relaxed his fist. Feeling the surge of power, he smiled joyfully.

Finally, he had broken through to the State of Foundation Establishment!

A full Perfected Person!

“Next, it’s time to go to Sky Mountain!”

Tang Hao murmured and stood up. A cold and fierce expression appeared on his face.

‘That old Liu guy must die!

‘If Sky Mountain were to help him and not see their mistakes, I don’t mind razing them to the ground too.’
