Chapter 245 Tang San Returns to Haotian Sect

Ten days later, the sunset forest.

Tang San slowly opened his eyes, his face neither sad nor happy, "Dad, level 63."

With his current physical condition, absorbing a 30,000-year-old plant-type soul beast soul ring is a matter of course and cannot make him feel uneasy.

After all, he had devoured hundreds, if not a thousand, of soul masters in the Killing City.

Even because the attached soul bone cannot preserve life energy, and the amount of energy that the physical body can convert after each devouring is very small, the physical strength will only increase slightly each time. But over time, little things add up, and the improvement is still impressive.

"Yes." Tang Hao nodded and stood up from the ground, "In that case, let's say goodbye."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Tang San didn't say anything, just stood there quietly, watching Tang Hao's back disappear from sight.

With his current strength, it is difficult to encounter a soul beast that can threaten his life in this Sunset Forest. Even if he encounters it, he can avoid it with his detection ability. This is why Tang Hao left with peace of mind.

He completely understands this.

Father's love is like this, not good at words, but silently protecting.

"Dad, I will never let you down!" He murmured, turned around and ran towards the north.

On the other side, the Papal Palace.

"Bring the photo stone and increase the surveillance of the Haotian Sect. If you find Tang Hao and his son wandering around, record it and report it immediately." After hearing the report from the titled Douluo who returned, Bibi Dong did not show any displeasure. It was an immediate order.

"Yes, I will make arrangements now!" Ghost Douluo, who was standing on the right below, immediately bowed in response.

In Tianxing Academy, Lin Manshan stood in front of the window and watched the birds fly away.

"He ran quite fast, but Tang Hao once again used the ring-exploding stunt, and he must have been able to peel off the soul bones and eliminate the congestion much faster."

While thinking, I returned to the futon and sat down.

In recent times, he has spent time every day to understand the multiple attribute energy contained in the elemental soul core in his dantian, and now he can use it in the most superficial way.

And after observation, the elemental soul core is indeed slowly improving his physique.

Even if he doesn't run Jingtian Jue to accelerate, this improvement will slowly occur as the soul core operates on its own.

And his current physical resistance can already support rubbing small fireballs with his hands.

Of course, the one that has made the most progress is the relatively mild wind attribute, which is also the focus of his current development. Now you can not only swing the wind blade with your hands, but also transfer the wind attribute energy to your legs, making your body lighter and increasing your movement speed in disguise.

Safety first, running fast is important!

Unfortunately, we are still far away from truly flying with the wind, let alone flying with the wind.

Shaking his head slightly to eliminate distracting thoughts, he continued to immerse himself in understanding.

A few days later, outside Haotian Sect.

"As expected, the Haotian Sect has been completely blocked by the Wuhun Palace." Sensing the figures hidden in the distance around the village, Tang San further mobilized his mental power to restrain his murderous intent, then tapped his toes and used Ghost Shadow to Disappear. He disappeared into the village silently.

What Tang Sect is best at is assassination and tracking. Compared with him, the people from Wuhun Palace are far behind.

However, being exposed to the flying soul master's sight before still left a deep impression on him. So this time, he chose to come early in the morning.

This time is when people are most sleepy.

Blocked by the shadows of the dilapidated houses, we continued on.

The map Tang Hao gave him not only had detailed location records, but also the terrain of entering and exiting the Haotian Sect was clear. His father Tang Hao has not returned to Haotian Sect for many years, so it is naturally impossible for him to understand so clearly. Therefore, he guessed that it was the map left by his aunt Tang Yuehua.

In his thoughts, he walked across the village, spent nearly half an hour, and finally reached a mountain peak.

The height is about 500 meters and it is extremely steep. The entire mountain wall is almost vertical to the ground and is extremely smooth with almost no plants.

Looking closely, weeds are scattered irregularly on the smooth mountain wall, which can be used to borrow strength.

He canceled the Purple Demon Eyes, bowed his legs, and jumped into the air.

The mountain wall was too smooth and steep, making it impossible to hide people. In addition, the location was secretive, so he did not notice any hidden sentinels from the Spirit Hall around him.

"I'm afraid, my father has already anticipated this situation, so he asked my aunt to prepare this map in advance and mark this hidden place." With emotion in his heart, he used the ghost shadow again, carefully controlled his strength, and quietly climbed to the top of the mountain. .

Through the resonance of his mental power with the Bluesilver Grass, he could completely feel that there was a large area of ​​vegetation in front of him, and many of them grew on steep cliffs.

After carefully sensing the surroundings, I suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a figure hiding in the area near the right side.

There are also figures hiding in other areas, but the number is very small, but they all occupy high ground.

"It seems that that is where Haotian Sect disciples usually go in and out."

After thinking for a moment, he opened his Eight Spider Spears, grabbed the cliff and moved down the mountain stream, and then followed the shadow of the mountain wall in the direction he remembered.

Not long after, a chain was found in the lower part of a mountain stream. The bottom was so deep that it was impossible to detect it.

Without hesitation, Tang San tapped his toes, stepped on the chain, and jumped forward quickly.

Not long after, I finally came to the other side. Under my mental perception, I saw that there were no Wuhun Palace secret sentries around. "This chain spans nearly a kilometer. If you don't have the ability to fly, you will definitely die if you fall. And the chain is slippery. If you want to Passing through safely is definitely not something that ordinary soul masters can achieve. Even the Spirit Hall would have difficulty setting up secret sentries on so many mountain peaks, not to mention that this place is secretive enough."

"Who would have thought that there are chains under this invisible mountain stream?"

"This is probably one of the escape routes prepared by the sect."

"Moreover, it should be a retreat prepared for elite disciples. Ordinary disciples cannot pass through at all."

After a moment of silence, he unfolded the Eight Spider Spears again, grabbed the mountain wall and continued to crawl.

After crossing one mountain peak after another and walking through one chain after another, the climate became colder and colder, the mountain walls turned into solid ice, and Tang San finally reached the fourth mountain peak. Looking around, the front is no longer deep black, but filled with cold mist, covering an ice chain.

Seeing this situation, Tang San didn't dare to be lazy, summoned the Blue Silver Emperor's martial spirit, caught the ice chain, and used the force to slide.

Sliding and sliding, "Who is it!?" A soft shout came from not far away.

"No wonder there is no one around here. The front should be the real location of the Haotian Sect. This mountain stream with a width of at least two thousand meters is the warning range that the Haotian Sect has been strictly guarded against after being blocked." Tang San thought to himself, exerting force on his waist and borrowing the force. Swinging on an ice chain.

At this moment, the fog rolled in front, and a strong man holding the Clear Sky Hammer rushed out.

Seeing this, Tang San grabbed his right hand, and the Clear Sky Hammer spirit appeared in his hand. The surging murderous aura filled the air unconsciously, making the strong man who rushed out not to frown. Then he heard Tang San's cold voice, "My name is Tang San, come here to find my aunt Tang Yuehua. I think this martial spirit is enough to prove my identity."

As he said that, he remembered his father Tang Hao's instructions in his mind, and said: "I just came out of the killing city, and I can't completely control my emotions and the murderous aura in my body. Please forgive me if I have offended."

A hint of surprise flashed in the strong man's eyes, he looked Tang San up and down, and said calmly: "My name is Tang Long, come with me."

After that, he took back his martial spirit, twisted his body with a bounce, and got into the mist.

It seems that the people in the Haotian Sect don't have a good impression of me and my father. Tang San frowned, withdrew his spirit and followed.

After walking through the iron rope, the distant east was shining brightly, reflecting the huge stone building on the top of the mountain. It was completely gray and looked like a part of the mountain. It almost occupied the entire top of the mountain. At the bottom was a five-meter-high stone gate with three inscriptions engraved on it. A big character, Haotian Sect.

"Please show me our token." Following Tang Longgang to the door, a young man in gray clothes glanced over at him.

"Token!?" Tang San frowned subconsciously.

Tang Long possesses the Clear Sky Hammer martial spirit and is obviously a direct disciple of the Clear Sky Sect. He was brought here without a fight. Doesn't this explain the situation?

The sect is facing difficulties, and there are still internal differences? How did the uncle lead? !

What do the elders in the sect do for food? !

"It's the Clear Sky Hammer." Tang Long turned around and said calmly: "Only the direct disciples of the sect can enter here. The affiliated and collateral disciples all live in the village outside. They only let you show it when they meet you. It's a rule." As he said this, his eyes darkened.

After the Haotian Sect announced a complete closure of the mountain, many vassals chose to leave silently. Nowadays, most of the people left in the village at the foot of the mountain are the descendants of the collateral lineage who have not awakened the spirit of the Clear Sky Hammer. It is these people who deliver necessary supplies to the sect under the strict supervision of Wuhun Palace.

Tang San felt silent that the Haotian Sect had fallen into such a state of decline. He had observed before when passing through the village that judging from the size, the village had only a few hundred residents at most, and their lives were extremely difficult. This can be seen from the dilapidated houses and the shabby clothes hanging outside. This is not the situation that the children of the sect should have. They are clearly ordinary farmers.

Nodding slightly, Tang San flipped his left hand, and as black light surged, a foot-long Clear Sky Hammer appeared in his hand.

Without even a soul ring, the eyes of the two gatekeeper disciples suddenly turned indifferent.

"Let's go." Seeing the change in their expressions, Tang Long did not explain, but raised his hand and continued to move forward.

Tang San didn't say anything, he took back his martial spirit and followed closely.

Soon, the two came to a huge building like a castle. After entering, there was a wide hall.

"It's still early, so you can sit here for a while. I'll inform the sect master and the others."

With that said, Tang Long climbed up the inner stairs to the second floor.

After a while, he walked down again and said calmly: "Come up."

Tang San, who was standing there waiting, immediately walked up the stairs, and then followed Tang Long into the living room on the second floor.

As soon as his feet crossed the threshold, a surge of coercion suddenly bypassed Tang Long and pressed directly towards him.

"Huh?" Tang San's expression turned cold almost as if by reflex, his eyes flashed red, and a milky-white murderous aura suddenly erupted.

"???" Tang Long, who was standing in front, suddenly felt a cold breath rushing to his forehead, his expression changed drastically, and he jumped to the side. The look he looked at Tang San was also solemn. Facing the powerful pressure released by the sect leader Tang Xiao, not only did he not bend down, but he was able to fight back immediately, which is enough to show Tang San's strength. Above him, he was Tang San's age.

No wonder Aunt Yuehua admires him so much, she thought to herself.

Tang Xiao, who was sitting behind the desk, also changed his expression. Unexpectedly, he had broken through to the Soul Emperor! ?

Brother Hao, what kind of monster have you cultivated? As he sighed, relief and hope also rose in his eyes. At the same time, he also understood the reason why Tang Hao asked Tang San to come. With such a reaction and such murderous intent, it was obvious that he had just come out of the Killing City.

"Brother, what are you doing?" A voice sounded, followed by gentle string music that echoed in the room. And as the string music continued to play, the red light in Tang San's eyes gradually faded away, and the murderous aura lingering around his body gradually shrank.

"Mistress, come here and show your aunt." Tang Yuehua took back his martial spirit, his face full of joy.

Hearing this, Tang San strode not far in front of Tang Xiao, knelt down with a bang, and then kowtowed, "Tang San, I have met the sect master."

"Get up." Tang Xiao nodded calmly.

On the side, Tang Yuehua frowned, stood up from his seat, and quickly walked forward to help Tang San up.

"Xiaosan, what are you doing? How could you, a junior, be responsible for your father's affairs?"

"It is only natural that a father's debt should be repaid by his son. I am willing to bear all responsibilities for my father." Tang San said without being humble.

"Can you afford it?" When Tang Xiao heard this, he suddenly exploded, slapped his palm on the stone table, and shouted angrily.

Tang San immediately knelt on the ground again, "I don't know if I can afford it, but I am willing to use my life to serve the sect and do my best to atone for my father's sins." His tone was depressed and low, as if he was hiding unwillingness. stubborn.

"My own affairs are actually left to a child. Tang Hao, Tang Hao, do you really want to keep running away like this?" Tang Xiao turned around and stood up, walked to the window next to him, waved his right hand, and scattered the dust on the ground. Toward the window.

"Sect Master, my father is not escaping!" Tang San said in a determined tone, "He just knows that he feels ashamed of the sect and has no right to return without permission."

"Get up." Tang Xiao turned around, his expression softening, "You know? In fact, I never thought your father did anything wrong back then. If your mother had chosen me, I would have done the same. The choice is even more drastic than his. Therefore, no matter what others say in the future, I don’t want your father’s affairs to become a burden to you. Doing your best for the sect is what you must do, but it is not because of your father’s affairs. But because you are also a member of the Tang family and a member of the sect."

"Sect Master, do you know my mother?" Tang San's face suddenly looked a little surprised.

From Tang Xiao's tone, it seemed that he and his father had pursued his mother before, but failed.

"Call me uncle." Tang Xiao looked at Tang San quietly, his tone gentle.

"Uncle." Tang San said immediately.

Tang Xiao nodded and continued: "Since your father did not choose to tell you the matter, he must have his own considerations. I can probably guess his purpose of letting you come here alone. From today on, you will Live in the sect and study with your aunt."

"When you can completely control the murderous aura in your body, I think he will take the initiative to inform you of all this."

"However, you have to be prepared. I am not the only one who has the final say in the sect. Whether you can stay or not, you need to get through the elders' hurdles on your own. And I only have two words of advice for you. Be tough. Here, strength means the right to speak. If you want to replace your father and atone for the sect's sins, you must first use your own strength to prove that you have the ability to do it."

"Otherwise, it's all just talk."

"Now." Tang Xiao turned to look at Tang Yuehua, "Yuehua, take the mistress to the room to wash up."

"After breakfast, we will take my mistress to the front yard to attend the sect meeting."

Tang Yuehua nodded, pulled Tang San and walked toward the door on the other side.

An hour later, in the front yard of Haotian Sect.

Different from the coldness when Tang San came in the early morning, there were at least 150 people in the courtyard at this time, forming a circle, surrounding Tang Xiao and five white-haired old men sitting on the chair. One of them was an old man. He was talking to Tang Xiao about something.

After Haosheng warned Tang San, Tang Yuehua walked towards Tang Xiao.

Tang San, on the other hand, walked straight into the encirclement from the front and walked towards Tang Xiao and several elders.

Seeing Tang San arriving, all the disciples moved out of the way, most of them with unkind expressions on their faces. The Haotian Sect was under total blockade because of Tang Hao's seclusion back then, and not long ago because of Tang Hao's siege. The Haotian Sect was once the number one sect in the world, so powerful and glorious. As direct disciples, they don't have to eat and drink well. But all this passed away because of Tang Hao.

We once had fine clothes and fine food, but now we have to live in this bitter cold place, eating and sleeping in the open.

How can they not hate this! ?

Seeing Tang Hao's son at this time, he was so filled with anger that he couldn't control himself.

"Tang Hao's bastard, get out of the Haotian Sect, you don't deserve to be here!" A sharp shout suddenly burst out from the crowd.

"Yes, now that you have left the sect, why are you coming back?!"

"You two, father and son, are both sinners of the Haotian Sect!"

"." There were people around, mostly young people, responding to the booing.

"Evil?!" These two words undoubtedly penetrated deeply into Tang San's heart, and his eyes turned red almost instantly.

His mother was not around since he was a child, and he was dependent on his father. Mother's love has always been what he has longed for in his two lives. In this life, although I still don’t know the specific identity of my mother, my desire becomes stronger with age.

"Boom!" Almost without warning, a wisp of white light burst out from the body, and the cold murderous aura turned into substance, carrying a majestic momentum and spreading indiscriminately around him.

At the same time, six soul rings were displayed one by one under the feet, yellow, yellow, purple and black.

The faces of the weaker disciples of the Haotian Sect around them turned pale almost instantly, while the faces of the other disciples suddenly froze, with expressions of disbelief.

Six soul rings, Soul Emperor! ? The expressions of several elders also changed.

"Watch it!?" Tang San glanced coldly, "How dare you say you are worthy of me? A bunch of losers!"

"Who was the first to do what happened back then? Was it my father? It was Wuhundian! They were bullied and came to the door, should my father still kneel down and beg for mercy? As a member of the sect, my father Do you still want to kowtow to Qian Xunji and admit your mistake?"

"And, my mother is dead! She is dead!" He almost roared.

Although he still doesn't know the whole truth, he found some information from his conversation with Ning Fengzhi in Tiandou City, from the few words his father said, and by himself. He had already guessed that his mother probably died in that battle that year.

"My father fought back and safeguarded the sect's reputation. He single-handedly repelled the enemies from the Spirit Hall and supported the sect's backbone."

"As a husband, he shouldered the responsibility of protecting his wife. But what about you? What did you do when the disciples of the sect were bullied?!"

"You chose to retreat and escape without any resistance! My father was forced to leave the sect, became homeless, and was besieged and killed by Wuhun Palace. In the end, our mother died in the battle!?"

"All of this is caused by your cowardice!"

"The number one sect in the world? Are you worthy of this title? Are you qualified?"

"As for Dugu Bo, shouldn't he die? Even though my father left the sect, he was still working hard to eliminate hidden dangers for the sect? What about you? You are hiding here like a shrunken turtle, waiting for foreign enemies to grow up and destroy you. ."

"Look, apart from using your words, what else can you do for the sect!?"

"You hate me and my father, so who should I hate as a person who has been without a mother since childhood and has been dependent on my father for life!?"

The disciples were immediately speechless, several elders looked ugly, Tang Yuehua was sobbing, and Tang Xiao on the side had a red face and clenched his fists.

Then Tang San withdrew his soul ring, grabbed it with his right hand, and slammed the Clear Sky Hammer spirit to the ground.

The tone was high and cold, "Take a good look at yourselves again. Just because of your potential, just because you are huddled here behind closed doors, raised here like flowers in a greenhouse, and have never experienced wind, rain or temper, you can achieve enough Are you going to fight against Bibi Dong, against the level 99 Peerless Douluo Qian Daoliu? If you think you can, then come on! Defeat me and prove yourself!"

"If you can't do it, then let me do it!"

All the young disciples looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to step forward. In the same age group as Tang San, the strongest among them was only at the level of the Soul Sect. If he went to fight the Soul Emperor, wouldn't he be looking for abuse? Those of the higher generation used to bully the younger ones.

"Tang San, don't be arrogant in front of the elders." Tang Xiao's voice came.

However, Tang San was unmoved, turned to look at Tang Xiao, and said with an indifferent expression: "Uncle, the current Haotian Sect is really disappointing. After being here for a long time, many people have become unclear about right and wrong, and even You can’t even tell your enemies apart.”

As he spoke, he glanced at the elders and said coldly:

"Now I am standing here. It is not the Haotian Sect that gives me a choice, but I give the Haotian Sect a choice."

"Presumptuous!" An elder suddenly shouted loudly, a strong momentum gushing out.

Tang San was immediately shocked and took a few steps back.

Tang San's tone was still cold, "Whether it's arrogance or the fact before you, you know it in your heart. With my great-grandfather gone, I am now the only one who has the chance to grow up and fight against Qiandaoliu. Moreover, with my great-grandfather's glory back then, If I knew that the actions you took to protect yourself back then caused the sect to decline to this point."

"What do you think his old man will think?"

"Whether you continue to cower like this and kill me by the neck, or fight back, I think it's time to make a choice. Of course, Seventh Elder, you can also choose to kill me now. As long as you decide not to resist, I will treat it as a sacrifice for you back then. If the eldest son dies, he will pay for it with his life.”

"Or, put aside your grudges and face the common enemy Wuhun Palace with the juniors."

"If you are willing," Tang San said, touching his waist with his right hand, and the ten-headed blazing sun snake inner elixir appeared in the palm of his hand.

"This is the ten-headed blazing snake inner elixir I obtained on my way through hell. It contains abundant fire-attribute energy. If you take it, you will definitely benefit greatly."

"I can give it to you as an apology for the confrontation and what happened back then."

The previous insults from the disciples of the Haotian Sect really made him angry, but he had expected these after Tang Yuehua told him about the current situation of the Haotian Sect.

It has always been his father's wish to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan. For his father's sake, he must restrain himself.

He did mean to vent his words just now, but wasn't he telling the truth?

As for taking out the ten-headed blazing sun snake inner elixir, it was also the result of careful consideration.

One of them was to resolve the grudges and help the elders who had the most grudges against his father. Secondly, the current Haotian Sect is indeed in urgent need of improving its combat power.

The five titled Douluo who hunted him and his father before left a deep impression on him.

Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, Ju Douluo, Ghost Douluo, plus the five who were chasing them, totaled nine Titled Douluo, and this did not include whether there were other Titled Douluo hidden behind Wuhun Palace. Taking into account the many soul masters under Wuhun Palace, the gap in combat power is really huge.

Even if he really grows to the level of Tang Chen in the future, his chances of winning are still unpredictable.

Uniting all the forces that can be united is what he must do now.

This is what his father told him before.

"Old Seven, the overall situation is the most important thing." The great elder on the side couldn't help but say something.

Although Tang San's words were irritating, they were indeed the truth. Moreover, he could tell that Tang San had already prepared these words and was not doing them recklessly. Putting aside his strength, he recognized Tang San from the bottom of his heart based on the wisdom displayed by this move of advancing while retreating. To fight against the huge Spirit Hall, brute force alone is not enough.

"Hmph, boy. These are not enough to get my approval. You must use your strength to prove your potential." The seventh elder snorted coldly, stepped forward, flicked his right hand, and held the Clear Sky Hammer spirit in his hand, " I will suppress my strength to the peak of Soul Emperor without using soul skills, come on."

"Let me see if you are worthy enough to let us bet the life and death of our sect on you."

Hearing this, Tang Xiao and Tang Yuehua beside him suddenly brightened up.

Isn't it possible that the seventh elder was doing this for the disciples of the sect to see?

With a wave of his hand, he signaled the surrounding disciples to immediately retreat.

"As you wish!" Tang San took back the inner elixir and said without saying a word.

After everyone dispersed, he stepped on it, and the ground suddenly cracked, and his body disappeared on the spot.

"The realm of the god of death. The dance of the cloak with attached soul bones. The Nine Jue of Haotian" doesn't hold back any of its hands, and it's all about murderous intent.

Two quarters of an hour later, the ground was devastated and all the disciples were stunned.

"Seventh Elder, I wonder if this junior's strength satisfies you?" Tang San stood still and spoke calmly.

"Huh, you've passed." The Seventh Elder snorted coldly and took back the spirit, and said: "However, your father's promise to me back then still needs to be fulfilled. The head of a titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall is what Your final test to gain my approval.”

"It's natural." Tang San nodded, withdrew his martial soul, took out the inner elixir, and threw it directly, "Please accept it with the Seventh Elder's approval."

Raising his hand to take it, the seventh elder said nothing and turned towards the other elders.

Seeing this, Tang Xiao stood up and officially announced that Tang San would stay in Haotian Sect to practice.

As a result, Tang San officially moved into Haotian Sect.

PS: If I don’t write this chapter, the plot would be out of touch, which would be a shame.
