  Tang Hao dragged a few hemp sacks from the car and tossed them in front of the Taoist masters.

  “Wow!” The Taoist masters exclaimed. Their eyes were sparkling with anticipation.

  They surrounded the sacks and opened them. Everyone was extremely excited as they grabbed handfuls of jade talismans.

  Fellow Cultivator Tang’s talismans were treasures! They had immense power. One talisman was enough to make those wolf cubs and bloodlings suffer.

  Meanwhile, the heavenly masters from Dragon Tiger Mountain were stunned when they saw that.

  Their eyes were about to pop out from their sockets.

  ‘Oh my god!

  ‘Am I dreaming?

  ‘If I’m not dreaming, then why am I seeing so many jade talismans in front of my eyes? They’re all kept in hemp sacks, no less! What kind of a joke is this? Is the kid some sort of freak?

  ‘How would he have so many jade talismans?’

  They were about to cry when they looked at their tiny briefcases.

  They had talismans too, but they were paper talismans, which were nowhere near the power of jade talismans.

  Each of the jade talismans was brimming with a strong flow of qi. They were items of incredible power! The heavenly masters were envious when they saw that.

  They tried to sneak into the crowd and grab some talismans for themselves.

  “Sorry, there’s none for you!” Tang Hao said coldly and shattered their hopes.

  Meanwhile, the cultivators from the Agency were also shocked by what they saw.

  Many of them had never seen jade talismans before, but they knew that they were incredibly precious.

  ‘How could he carry such precious items inside hemp sacks?’

  That had totally overturned their understanding of value.

  Even Mu Xintong’s mouth was slightly open. Her usually impassive face showed some surprise.

  “Come here. There’s some for you too!” Tang Hao took a hemp sack and placed it in front of Mu Xintong. “Take some more if you want!”

  Gulp!

  Mu Xintong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and reached toward the hemp sack. Her eyes sparkled when she opened it up and saw the gleaming jade talismans inside.

  The feeling was like a miser stumbling upon a treasure trove.

  It was utter bliss!

  She became more excited as she reached into the sack and grabbed a handful of talismans.

  The other people from the Agency grabbed a handful of talismans each. They clutched the talismans in their hands, so happy and excited from their haul that they could faint.

  Everyone was brimming with enthusiasm after they had received the talismans. They felt as though they could take on ten enemies each.

  “Take down those wolf cubs!”

  “Take down those bloodlings!”

  The Taoist masters waved their arms and chanted.

  “Take them all down! Take them all down!” The Agency cultivators also shouted.

  “Yes, that’s the spirit!” General Bai nodded satisfactorily.

  He walked next to Tang Hao. “So what now, Comrade Tang Hao? Are you prepared?”

  Tang Hao inhaled gently. “I’m ready!”

  “Let’s set out then!” General Bai said seriously.

  The people boarded military jets.

  Once they arrived at a naval base, they boarded a naval ship and departed toward the offshore battlefield.

  The two armies met at five o’clock in the morning.

  The cruise ship was packed with people in black suits. It was a spectacular sight.

  “Charge!

  “Everyone, charge! The fate of Huaxia hangs on this battle. If we lose, Huaxia will fall. If we win, Huaxia shall be restored to its former glory!

  “As Mao Mountain Taoist masters, we shall strive for the greater good and rid the world of evil. Today, we shall fight for Huaxia. We might lose our lives, but there shall be no regrets!”

  When the two ships got close enough to each other, the elderly Mao Mountain Taoist masters roared. They led the charge toward the enemy’s ship.

  “Fight for Huaxia! Die with no regrets!”

  The chants had riled up the fighting spirit of the Taoist masters. They repeated the chant and charged forward.

  On the bow of the ship, Tang Hao tapped his foot and flew toward the cruise ship.

  “The Huaxianese are here!”

  “Charge! Rip them into pieces!”

  On the cruise ship, the people charged forward like the incoming tide. The werewolves transformed and pounced at their enemies.

  The vampires howled and bared their fangs.

  The two forces met in the middle.

  The intense battle had begun.

  Chapter 491 - On the Verge of A Breakthrough

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Explosions of fire and lightning rocked the ship.

  Paper and jade talismans were thrown as though they were free.

  At the same time, the muzzles of the machine guns flashed with tongues of fire.

  Many vampires and werewolves were killed in the first wave of attack. However, there were too many of them. The first wave fell, but more rushed in like the incoming tide.

  The werewolves and vampires moved at incredible speeds. Once they got close, the Taoist masters would be at a disadvantage.

  The intense battle continued. The cries of battle and howls of pain pierced the sky.

  The elderly Taoist masters were deep in the enemy’s ranks. As they waved their palms, a wave of lightning flashed and singed the enemies.

  Their hair flailed wildly, and their expressions were ferocious and savage, as though they were gods of war.

  Their mortal lives were coming to an end anyway, so they did not care whether they survived the battle.

  The Taoist masters behind them were fighting ferociously too.

  The Huaxia forces were very small compared to the Westerners, though their morale cut through the enemies like a sharp blade. They managed to gain a foothold on the deck of the cruise ship.

  “Hey, these old geezers are quite powerful!”

  “They’re quite strong!”

  “Their blood must taste delicious!”

  Thirteen figures stood on the deck of the cruise ship.

  Their faces were shrouded by a shadow and could not be seen clearly. However, they all had formidable qi auras. They were leaders of the thirteen clans and have lived hundreds, if not thousands of years.

  “It’s our turn to act. If this goes on, we will suffer too many casualties!” One of them said.

  “We ought to go and rip those Taoist geezers into pieces!” One of them roared.

  “Kill them!”

  They howled, transformed, and brandished their qi auras.

  “Awoo!”

  The wolf howls shook the skies.

  “It’s the alphas! They’re joining the fray!”

  The Western forces received a boost in morale.

  “Go!”

  The figures pounced forward to kill the elderly Taoist masters.

  Suddenly, they noticed a flash of lightning amid the crowd.

  A figure wrapped in lightning energy was dashing ahead. Vampires and werewolves were pushed away wherever he went.

  The lightning dissipated, and a boy appeared.

  The boy was hovering in the air, and his qi aura was threatening. The gaze in his eyes shot out like electricity and swept at them.

  “Your opponent is me!” He said coldly.

  The thirteen people were stunned.

  Some of them had shocked expressions, while others were disdainful and mocking.

  They were shocked that the boy could have such a threatening qi aura even though he was so young. He did not look like he was any weaker than them.

  However, they were also disdainful that one person dared to challenge them all at once.

  Was he looking for death?

  Did that Huaxianese have something wrong with his brain?

  �
��How boastful! You plan to take on all thirteen of us just by yourself?” Old Sullivan smirked. “Haha! I’ve never heard of something so funny after living for so long!”

  “You have a death wish, Huaxia kid!” Old Baird said viciously.

  “I think… you’re the ones who have a death wish!” Tang Hao smiled coldly

  The clan leaders were livid.

  Their power and status did not allow for them to be looked down upon by a mere kid!

  “Go! Rip him into shreds!”

  Old Baird roared. He stamped his foot, and his body shot out at an incredible speed.

  The other twelve clan leaders also dashed out at the same time.

  Tang Hao grunted coldly and flicked his wrist. Thirty-three jade talismans appeared and surrounded him, forming a web of lightning.

  He flicked his other wrist, and a pill appeared on his other palm.

  The pill was transparent and clear as a crystal, though there was a thin wisp of fog inside it. It occasionally coalesced in the shape of a flying serpent and immediately disappeared.

  He tossed the pill into his mouth and swallowed it.

  As the pill dissolved in his stomach, a strong current of qi coursed through his veins.

  His body trembled. A translucent wave rippled from his body and pushed forward in all directions.

  The thirteen clan leaders were preparing to tear apart the lightning web but they were pushed backward by the ripple as though they were struck by lightning. They flew backward and landed on the floor.

  “What… happened?” They were all confused.

  What force could push all thirteen of them away at the same time?

  How could a young man possess that much power?

  They got on their feet and looked in front of them.

  When they saw the figure closely, their bodies shook, and they froze on the spot.

  The young figure hovered in the air in front of them, surrounded by a web of lightning and emanating a strong light, as though he was a miniature sun. There was an incalculable amount of energy exploding from his body.

  He was absorbing that energy. His qi aura became stronger and stronger until it was almost scary.

  The clan leaders’ expressions froze.

  “Oh… oh my god! He is breaking through! He’s becoming a Perfected Person!”

  Old Cain stood there, dumbstruck. His body was trembling out of extreme fear.

  A Perfected Person!

  That was such an awe-inspiring title!

  The other people were also shaking.

  The vampires, werewolves, and even the Taoist masters lifted their heads and looked at him with utter incredulity.

  They could feel the shockingly strong qi aura on that person.

  The pressure of the qi aura made them unable to breathe.

  When their vision cleared, the Taoist masters all looked incredulous. “Oh heavens, is that really Fellow Cultivator Tang?” They exclaimed.

  They could not believe that the imposing figure that hovered in the air in front of them was Fellow Cultivator Tang.

  He was breaking through!

  He was becoming a Perfected Person!

  He was only nineteen years old though!

  How was that possible?

  The heavenly masters from Dragon Tiger Mountain were huddled up in a corner and throwing paper talismans sneakily. They were stunned when they lifted their head and saw that. Their eyes were about to pop out from their eye sockets.

  Oh, heavens!

  What were they looking at?

  That filthy kid was about to break through!

  How was that possible?

  Was there any justice in the world?

  The heavenly masters were losing their minds.

  They knew that the kid was only nineteen years old and not some ancient monster.

  ‘A nineteen-year-old Perfected Person?’

  Their minds went dizzy when they thought of that.

  ‘What kind of a monster would he become?’

  They lamented.

  The cultivators from the Agency were also shocked. Their mouths and eyes were opened wide, and they stood there as though they were turned into stone.

  Chapter 492 - Half A Perfected Person

  Mu Xintong stood there on the deck, frozen.

  Her beautiful eyes were opened round and wide, and her petite mouth was slightly open with shock.

  ‘Oh my god!

  ‘He’s breaking through!

  ‘How is that possible? Where did he get that power?

  ‘It’s very difficult, no, it’s almost impossible to break through as a Perfected Person in modern times!’

  The entire deck of the cruise ship fell silent.

  After that, everyone exclaimed loudly in surprise.

  “Stop him! He cannot succeed!’ Old Sullivan roared madly. His form changed and his eyes burst with a blood-red glow. He stamped his feet and pounced at the figure hovering in mid-air.

  The twelve other people also pounced at him.

  ‘That kid cannot succeed! If he does, then we’re finished!’

  “Quick! Stop them!”

  “Protect Fellow Cultivator Tang!”

  The elderly Taoist masters roared. They brandished their qi auras and pounced at the thirteen clan leaders.

  When the thirteen clan leaders neared Tang Hao, they were stopped by the lightning web.

  When they tore away the web of lightning and were about to viciously rip apart Tang Hao into shreds, Tang Hao abruptly opened his eyes which flashed with a terrible light.

  His gaze was ice-cold. He lifted his hand and a lightning bolt shot out.

  The lightning bolt was as thick as a bucket.

  ‘F*ck!’

  Old Sullivan’s eyes opened wide in surprise and fear.

  He was about to curse out loud. If he was struck by a lightning bolt that thick, there would be nothing of him left!

  He did not have time to dodge it and had to take it head-on.

  “Ahhh!”

  He wailed in agony as he flew backward. He fell heavily on the deck, and his fur and skin were charred black.

  Tang Hao turned around and shot out similar bolts of lightning.

  “Ahh!” “Ahh!” “Ahh!”

  The other figures also flew backward while screaming and fell on the floor.

  The deck of the cruise ship was silent again.

  The figures stood frozen on the spot and looked at the young man hovering in the air. They had incredulous expressions on their faces.

  The young man’s clothes fluttered under the influence of his qi aura. He had an aura of lightning around him, as though he was the reincarnation of the god of lightning.

  “He’s not a Perfect Person yet, but he’s already halfway there! He’s half a Perfected Person!” An elderly Taoist master cried out.

  “Haha! Half a Perfected Person? That’s still a Perfected Person! With Fellow Cultivator Tang on our side, victory is definitely ours!”

  “Kill these monsters! Kill them all!”

  The Taoist masters roared angrily. With the big boost of morale from Tang Hao, they charged forward without hesitation.

  The vampires and werewolves started retreating.

  Even the heavenly masters from Dragon Tiger Mountain jumped out of their hiding place and rushed forward while throwing paper talismans.

  They knew that they were going to win the battle.

  “I’ll kill you bastards! Which son of a b*tch was cursing me earlier? Do you think that I don’t know English? I was the top student in my high school!”

  “Haha! It’s nice to be on the winning side! How dare you curse me earlier?”

  The Westerners might have the advantage in numbers, but half of them had already fallen.

  Meanwhile, Tang Hao was engaged in battle with the clan leaders.

  Clang! Clang! Clang!

  Swords clashed with claws.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Explosions of fire and lightning rocked the ship. />
  Even though he was facing thirteen enemies, he had the advantage.

  “Let us help you, Fellow Cultivator Tang!”

  After dispatching another group of werewolves and vampires, the elderly Taoist masters went to help Tang Hao. Tang Hao was already at an advantage. With the help of the elderly Taoist masters, the battle became one-sided.

  “Ah!” A wail of agony.

  A silver sword slit Old Cain’s throat and blood spurted out. Two elderly Taoist masters rushed ahead and burned him into ashes.

  “Ahh!” “Ahh!”

  Old Sullivan, Old Baird, and the other clan leaders fell one by one. The elderly Taoist masters burned them into ashes while they were down.

  “You… can’t do that…”

  “You all… are shameless! I want a one-on-one fight!”

  An old werewolf yelled.

  “You might be an idiot, but we’re not!” The Taoist masters rolled their eyes.

  That was one of the traditional virtues of Mao Mountain.

  “Go! F*ck him over! Skin him! It would be nice to have a coat made of werewolf pelt!” One of the elderly Taoist masters yelled.

  His eyes were sparkling when he looked at the dense and fluffy werewolf fur.

  “Hmm, that is very high-quality fur! The coat is glossy and vivid in color. It should be very fashionable as a coat!” Another Taoist master agreed.

  The elderly Taoist masters turned their gazes toward the werewolf.

  Even Tang Hao could not help it but steal a glance.

  ‘That looks not bad at all! I bet it’ll be really warm. How about making a coat for Sis Xiangyi?’

  “Save one for me!” Tang Hao yelled.

  “No worries, you’ll be getting the best one!” The elderly Taoist masters replied.

  The old werewolf trembled with fear when he heard that.

  ‘Dammit! They’re too vicious!
