As they sat in the main hall, they could hear a series of hurried footsteps coming toward them.
A figure ran into the main hall.
“Bad news, those evil whelps are attacking Mao Mountain! They’ve already found the entrance and are heading here.
“There are many cars and many people!”
The main hall fell silent for a second after they heard the news. After that, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
“What? Those evil whelps have found us?”
“Quick, let’s get our equipment and take them head-on.”
The commotion spread out of the main hall and through the entire mountain.
The younger disciples were gathered and sheltered in the underground plaza beneath the plaza.
The Taoist masters went down in a single file under Taoist Master Zhen Yang’s leadership. Morale was running high.
Once they were at the base of the mountain, they spread out in a row and assumed a fighting stance.
Meanwhile, a convoy of cars arrived in front of them.
All the cars were black. The cars at the front were extended Lincoln limousines, while in the middle was a Rolls Royce.
The opulence displayed was staggering.
The cars stopped in front of the Taoist masters.
The car doors opened. Men in black suits and wearing shades got out of the cars. They straightened their ties and combed their hair once they got out. It was an extremely cool scene.
The Taoist masters were dumbstruck.
‘F*ck! Am I dreaming?
‘Are they really the heretical cultivators that have been hiding in remote corners and mountains? Didn’t they used to look like poor farmers and savages?’
Chapter 548 - Freak of Nature
“Who’s that?”
“That should be Li Er Gou. I remember that scar very well. I hunted him down eight years ago, but I eventually lost his trail.
“He used to be a peasant farmer, but he became a disciple of a heretical cultivator and used sorcery to harm many innocent people.”
“Who’s that then?”
“Oh? He… well, Hung Du De I think!”
“Huh? Well… Hung… Dude?”
Many Taoist masters were stunned by the menacing name.
They turned their gazes toward the area between the man’s legs.
It seemed to be bigger than average.
“No, no! I was saying ‘well’ as in ‘maybe,’ and his name is Hung Du De!”
“Damn, that’s still a menacing name!”
“He looks well hung, alright. He preys on innocent virgin women and absorbs their qi.”
The Taoist masters discussed among themselves.
The people who had gotten out of the cars totaled three or four hundred people. They wore the same clothes, which was a spectacular sight.
“So many people, and they have decent cultivation bases too!” Tang Hao furrowed his brows.
“They managed to escape from Mao Mountain last time, so they’re not exactly pushovers!” Taoist Master Zhen Yang said, “I’m more concerned about who that Ancestor is!”
He cast a cold gaze toward the back of the convoy.
Behind the limousines was the Rolls Royce.
“You must be tired of living, you evil whelps! How dare you intrude upon Mao Mountain?” The Taoist masters shouted and cursed.
The heretical cultivators smirked.
“Don’t be too cocky, you filthy Taoist masters. You’ll cry and beg for mercy very soon!”
“We’ll raze Mao Mountain today. You’ll be nothing but history.”
“Hah, what a boast!” The Taoist masters did not yield.
“You’ll know soon if we’re only boasting! Announcing the arrival of the Ancestor!” Someone shouted.
They turned toward the Rolls Royce and lay prostrate on the floor.
The car door opened, and a figure walked out.
The figure was dressed in an expensive-looking black coat and wearing a hat. He wore a pair of sunglasses on his face and held a cigar in his mouth. He looked like a mob boss.
He straightened his coat after he stepped out of the car, then took off his hat to fix his hairstyle.
He dragged from his cigar and said, “Nice!”
At that moment, “Nice” could barely describe his feelings.
Today, he would raze Mao Mountain into the ground to avenge himself.
He blew a cloud of smoke and addressed the people in front of him. “It’s our turn to rise!” Then, he looked at the Taoist masters in front of him.
“You’re all here! Oh? That filthy kid is here too! Very well, I shall deal with all of you at once!” He said resentfully.
“Who the hell are you?” Taoist Master Zhen Yang said.
“Don’t you recognize me? Haha, you must’ve never expected that I will return one day!” Wang Changsheng roared with laughter and took off his sunglasses.
“It’s him!”
“He’s still alive!”
The Taoist masters exclaimed in surprise.
After Wang Changsheng self-destructed in their last battle, the Taoist masters had suspected that the villain was not truly dead, though they could not find any clues leading to him.
“Dammit, why is this guy still alive? I’d rather be kicked in the balls than to fight him again!” Shabby Taoist Master grumbled.
Wang Changsheng’s expression changed drastically when he heard that. “What did you just say?” He said angrily.
“I said I’d rather be kicked in the balls than fight you again! Why?”
“F*ck your mother, don’t mention about balls in front of me! Are you mocking me?”
Shabby Taoist Master was surprised. “Oh, you don’t have any!”
He covered his mouth to hide his laughter.
“He doesn’t have any, alright! We saw that there’s nothing between his legs the last time.” The other Taoist masters started laughing too.
Wang Changsheng’s face was contorted in anger.
“Waaagh! You filthy Taoist masters, may you all be struck by lightning! Go go go, kill them all! We’ll raze the mountain into the ground today.”
“Bring down Mao Mountain! All hail the Ancestor!”
The heretical cultivators chanted their battle cry.
They took out boxes and crates from the cars, filled with all sorts of bottles, cans, and other sorcerous implements.
“Charge!”
The Taoist masters also sprung into action. They wielded their firearms and fired at the enemies.
Tatatat!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The heretical cultivators were shocked when they saw the awe-inspiring display of firepower.
“Dammit, since when do the filthy Taoist masters use guns?” They exclaimed and scuttled behind their cars for cover.
Several heretical cultivators who reacted slowly were killed by gunfire.
They started to strike back. Countless wisps of black smoke rose into the sky, turned into malicious ghosts, and charged at the Taoist masters.
The ghosts blotted out the sky and cast shadows on the ground. Their hair-raising cries echoed in the mountains.
“Bring out the talismans!”
Taoist Master Zhen Yang roared. He waves his arms, and countless yellow paper talismans flew out in the shape of a dragon and rose into the sky.
At the zenith of its trajectory, it scattered into talismans once more and rained explosions.
It was like a fireworks display.
Black smoke and yellow talismans rose from both sides and collided with each other in the sky.
“Bring the coffins!”
Someone from the heretical side yelled.
Coffins were brought out from the Lincoln limousines. The cultivators opened the lids of the coffins, revealing figures emanating a scary aura of negative qi within. They were zombies.
“Charge!”
A bell rang. The zombies’ eyes lit up with a blood-red glow and pounced forward.
 
; “Bring the jade talismans!”
Taoist Master Zhen Yang stood in front of the Taoist masters and roared. His silvery-white hair was fluttering in the wind.
The Taoist masters reached into the cloth sacks around their waists and grabbed handfuls of jade talismans, then threw them toward the zombies.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Fire and lightning explosions blew the zombies into bits.
“F*ck!” The heretical cultivators were dumbstruck.
“What are we afraid of? Let’s go and crush them!” Wang Changsheng roared angrily.
The heretical cultivators gritted their teeth and started wielding their sorcery.
Beams of light and smoke surged toward the Taoist masters.
Both sides traded another bout of spells. After that, they charged toward each other wielding sorcery in their hands.
Tang Hao was leading the charge.
“Look there, that’s an idiot kid! Fire at him!”
The heretical cultivators’ eyes sparkled when they saw Tang Hao.
They would feel sorry for themselves if they did not take that free kill.
Tang Hao rolled his eyes, stomped on the ground, and brandished his qi aura.
He lifted his hand and fired a bolt of lightning, blowing one of the heretical cultivators into bits.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Bolts of lightning fired from Tang Hao’s hands and killed six people in an instant.
It was a one-sided display of power.
The heretical cultivators went silent and stopped charging. They were dumbstruck.
‘What the hell is going on?
‘Who is that kid? Why is he so powerful?’
When they felt Tang Hao’s qi aura, the heretical cultivators shuddered, and their knees went weak.
‘No, he’s already gone past the State of Qi Channeling. He’s stepping into the State of Foundation Establishment!
‘He’s half a Perfected Person!
‘Oh my god! How could Mao Mountain have such a freak?’
Wang Changsheng, who was standing behind the crowd, was also dumbstruck.
His eyes were opened wide as they fell on Tang Hao, and his mouth was opened in an O shape.
He was thoroughly dumbstruck, and he could feel his sanity slipping away.
‘That goddamned kid broke through? He’s one step into the State of Foundation Establishment? Oh, heavens! Why don’t you rain down punishment on this freak?’ Wang Changsheng was wailing internally.
He knew that the kid was an actual teenager and not some ancient monster. When he broke out of his seal, the kid was still in the middle period of the State of Qi Channeling.
At that time, the kid had defeated him convincingly.
After that, the kid’s cultivation base rose by leaps and bounds every time they met.
Now, he was one step into the State of Foundation Establishment.
If they would meet another time, would he become a full Perfected Person?
Chapter 549 - Coming Out of Seclusion
Wang Changsheng stood there. His face was twitching.
He felt like he could pop a vein anytime soon.
How else could he react when met with such a monster!
Then, a strong killing intent surged in his heart. He could not spare that monster. If he spared that kid’s life, things would only go downhill for him.
His face fiercely twitched, revealing a savage expression.
“Go to hell, you filthy kid!” He roared and took a big step forward.
Boom! He brandished his qi aura and shook the earth, sending wild gusts of wind in all directions.
His coat fluttered wildly in the wind, and his eyes shone with a blood-red light. His evil might towered into the heavens.
“Goddammit!” This time, it was the Taoist masters’ turn to be shocked.
Even Tang Hao was stunned. He almost cursed out loud.
“That’s the State of Foundation Establishment! His cultivation base has recovered!”
Taoist Master Zhen Yang’s body teetered, and his face turned pale.
Wang Changsheng was an ancient evil that had terrorized Huaxia in the past. Now that he had recovered his cultivation base and there were no cultivators in Mao Mountain in the State of Foundation Establishment, Wang Changsheng looked to be unstoppable. Tang Hao was only one step into the State and would be no match for the villain either.
That was a critical moment that threatened Mao Mountain’s existence.
If the two Perfected Persons did not come to help, Mao Mountain might perish.
Very quickly, he calmed down and gave out orders.
“All of my Zhen generation brothers! We shall fight the enemy to death. Xuan Ling, go to the back of the mountain and sound the ancient bell. Hurry up and go!”
Shabby Taoist Master was shocked. Then, his expression became unusually grim.
“Understood!” He bowed, turned around, and ran up the mountain.
The other Taoist masters also had extremely grim expressions.
Sounding the ancient bell meant that Mao Mountain was on the brink of extinction.
“All hail the Ancestor!”
The evil cultivators all had fervent expressions.
“After me! Kill all those Taoist masters!” Wang Changsheng roared.
“Kill!”
A group of evil cultivators roared in unison and charged forward like the incoming tide.
In an instant, black smoke billowed, and heretical sorcery flashed toward the opposite side.
“Kill!”
The Taoist masters roared in unison and charged head-on toward the opposing forces.
Behind them, Wang Changsheng suddenly raised his hand. Blood-colored light flashed in his eyes, and all the cars around him were lifted by an invisible force.
“Go to hell!”
He roared, and the cars smashed toward the Taoist masters.
Tang Hao flicked his hand, and a dozen jade talismans flew out, blasting these cars into bits.
“You’ll die right here, you filthy kid!”
Wang Changsheng roared and raised his hand. Rays of black light shot out and bombarded Tang Hao.
Tang Hao’s expression changed. He waved his hand, and a few jade pendants flew out. They expanded into light shields that surrounded his body.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The black light exploded when it collided with the light shields.
The violent power tore apart several layers of light shields in an instant. Immediately, two jade pendants cracked into pieces.
Tang Hao immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
‘Is that the true power of a Foundation Establishment cultivator?’
On the other hand, Wang Changsheng was surprised. “Artifacts? Hmph! You have quite a lot of tricks up your sleeve, you filthy kid. However, that alone can’t stop me! Today, you will die!”
As he said that, he raised his hand and fired a barrage of black beams.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Light shields shattered one by one under the incessant barrage. The jade pendants also cracked one after another.
Tang Hao’s facial muscles twitched from time to time. He was feeling very miserable.
‘Dammit, this Wang villain is too powerful. His cultivation base is much higher than mine. How long more can I last?’
Wang Changsheng’s surprise grew as the fight continued. ‘Aren’t Artifacts quite rare? That filthy kid has already expended so many of them. How many more does he have?’
“Dammit, I don’t believe that I can’t penetrate that turtle shell of yours!”
He shouted angrily and launched another frenzied wave of attacks.
Tang Hao, on the other hand, furiously channeled qi in his body to augment the powers of the jade pendants. Very soon, he depleted the qi reserves in his body. He had to swallow a few pills to recover some of it.
However, it was not long before he ran out again.
Without Tang Hao’s qi to augment the pendants, t
hey cracked even faster.
The final jade pendant cracked, and Tang Hao groaned. He was sent flying by the shockwave and crashed heavily to the ground.
“F*ck!” Tang Hao swore as he clutched his chest. He felt as though all the bones in his body had shattered.
“Fellow Cultivator Tang!” A few elderly Taoist masters cried out and wanted to rush to his aid.
“Get lost!”
Wang Changsheng grunted coldly. He waved his hand in the air, and more black beams shot out, sending the elderly Taoist masters flying backward. They spat out blood and fell to the ground.
Wang Changsheng walked over with large strides. His eyes emitted a bloody glow, and his threatening qi aura surged.
“What happened to you, you filthy kid? Didn’t you used to get a kick out of bullying me?” He said angrily.
Tang Hao coughed. He got onto his feet and pushed himself up, though he was struggling to catch his footing. Blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
He raised his head and looked at Wang Changsheng. He could not help but roll his eyes.
Something is wrong with the old fellow’s brain! Fighting him gives me no joy at all.’
Seeing that, Wang Changsheng became even angrier. He raised his hand and fired several black beams.
Tang Hao threw another ten more jade talismans, but they were not enough to block the attack.
He grunted and flew backward again.
“Dammit, this old bastard!” Tang Hao got up, gritted his teeth, and cursed angrily.
“Shut up!”
Wang Changsheng was livid. He raised his hand and fired another barrage of black beams.
Tang Hao’s expression changed. In a moment of desperation, he pulled out that strange mirror and blocked it. However, there were too many of them. He could not block them all and was sent flying again.
“F*ck! Isn’t help here yet? I can’t last for much longer!”
Tang Hao got up and looked in the direction of the mountain.
He knew what Shabby Taoist Master had gone to do, which was why he was stalling for time.
“Go to hell, you filthy kid!”
