Chapter 755: Digging Around the World
In the main hall, everyone’s expressions were somewhat solemn.
General Bai sat next to Tang Hao, representing the Agency and the military.
He frowned and said, “This situation is quite serious! Those people have been living in seclusion for so long. To put it bluntly, they’re illiterate!
“They’re seriously out of touch with society, yet they have superhuman abilities. It’s very easy for them to cause damage and affect the stability of our modern society.
“Look, the moment that guy came out, he started robbing. That isn’t right!
“Our society is harmonious and stable. We can’t allow those people to disrupt our society.”
Clap clap clap! After General Bai finished speaking, there was a round of applause below.
“Well said, General Bai!”
The people from the cultivation families clapped hard.
General Bai smiled, waved his hand, and said, “That’s why the higher-ups have decided to solve this problem at all costs. We can mobilize all troops and equipment from all five military regions.
“When the time comes, all the military regions will cooperate with us. Ahem, of course, we still have to be cautious about nuclear weapons. It’s not that we can’t use them, but we shouldn’t unless it’s absolutely necessary.”
At that point, he looked at Tang Hao and said, “That’s all I have to say. Next, let’s invite President Tang to speak.”
Clap clap clap!
There was another round of enthusiastic applause.
Tang Hao coughed lightly and said, “The situation is still unclear, but we have to prepare for the worst-case scenario. If that happens, we’ll have to fight them to the death!
“Huaxia’s peace has not come easily. We can’t let those people wreak havoc on our society. If they cause trouble, kill them! If they don’t listen to us, kill them too!”
As he spoke, Tang Hao’s tone of voice turned cold.
“That’s right! Those who don’t listen, kill them all. We won’t let them fight with us for control!”
“Well said, President!”
The group of people below started clapping excitedly again.
“However, we also have to recognize the difference in strength between us and them. There are more than ten Perfected Persons in Yin Mountain alone,” Tang Hao added.
In an instant, the crowd quieted down, and everyone seemed a little worried.
The cultivation world was stronger than before, but they were nowhere as strong as a hidden sect from ancient times.
Mao Mountain had two full Perfected Persons from the previous generation and a half-step, Dragon Tiger Mountain had a Perfected Person from the previous generation, and there was President Tang.
Among the four Perfected Persons, three were from the previous generation. They were reaching their mortal limits, so they could not hold on for long.
On the other hand, Yin Mountain had more than a dozen!
If several sects attacked at once, they would not be able to fight back.
They immediately felt tremendous pressure!
“We’ll have to prepare for war in the next two months. Mao Mountain, you’ll need to plant more ginseng and lingzhi to raise everyone’s cultivation base.
“Also, we need to craft more jade talismans. I’ll be crafting more and giving them out so that each of us can have at least a few dozen.
“Then, we shall send more people out to the wilds to collect medicinal herbs and look for rare and exotic beasts. I shall reward whoever finds anything with alchemical pills.”
The eyes of the crowd lit up with excitement.
“What… what kind of alchemical pills?”
When they heard about the reward, they almost drooled.
“There is quite a variety. I have medical pills, and I also have pills that can increase your cultivation base. It depends on what you need!” Tang Hao said.
They gulped hard, and their eyes were sparkling.
After the meeting ended, they rushed out impatiently.
“Hurry, hurry! Let’s send those whelps out as far away as possible! If they don’t find anything, they don’t need to come back! They can stay in the mountains for the rest of their lives!”
They all picked up their phones and called home.
Soon, only the Taoist masters and General Bai were left in the hall.
“Brother Tang, do you think we need to wake up the two seniors from our Mao Mountain?” Taoist Master Qian Ji asked.
“Well…”
Tang Hao was hesitant. He thought for a moment and said, “Not for the time being. It’s just Yin Mountain. I think we can handle them ourselves.”
“That’s fine!” Taoist Master Qian Ji nodded.
Then, Tang Hao looked at General Bai. “Yin Mountain is in Inner Mongolia, so they should be appearing there. We can prepare for battle now. Deploy troops around Yin Mountain and establish an early-warning mechanism.
“It’s said to be two months, but it’s hard to say if they’ll appear sooner.”
General Bai nodded and said, “No problem. I’ll go to the northern military region later to coordinate that matter!
“We need at least a hundred tanks! Then, we need all kinds of missiles and artillery. Also, we need the latest models of fighter jets and helicopters!
“And drones, too, we’ll need a few hundred to blow them up. Let them experience the power of technology!”
His tone of voice became vicious as he spoke.
After the discussion, General Bai left in a hurry.
Soon, everyone became busy.
It was a bustling scene on Mao Mountain.
Almost all the Taoist masters rolled up their pants, carried their hoes, and cultivated the wasteland on the mountains. They were very dedicated to the task.
Previously, the land around Mao Mountain had been cultivated. Now, they were expanding outward, eventually converting the entire mountain range into plantations.
They buried leyline gathering formations and planted ginseng and lingzhi.
The matured medicinal herbs were harvested and transported to Mao Mountain. Shabby Taoist Priest worked day and night to produce the Liquid of Spiritual Condensation.
Some Taoist masters went around the country to buy jade and transport them back in trucks so that they could craft jade talismans.
The crafters worked day and night, and the jade talismans gradually piled up into small mountains.
Although those jade talismans were not as powerful as the ones that Tang Hao made, they were nonetheless formidable in great quantities. If they were thrown together, the power would be extremely shocking.
Dragon Tiger Mountain and the people from the cultivation families went to every corner of the country. Some even went to dig their ancestral graves in search of treasure.
In an instant, many more “barbarians” appeared in every corner of Huaxia.
Some even formed groups and ran abroad to Nanyang, Hindustan, and Europe.
“We shall leave no stone unturned!” They cheered.
Everywhere they went, they dug holes in the ground and left nothing behind.
“The Huaxianese are here!”
“The Huaxianese are leaving again!”
“The Huaxianese are here again!”
The warlocks in Europe were shocked.
“The Huaxianese are here! Hurry up and run!”
In Hindustan, the warlocks were also surprised.
“The Huaxianese are too despicable. They are stealing our treasures on our land. We’re not going to take it lying down!”
Seeing the Huaxianese digging everywhere on their land, the Hindustani cultivators were furious!
However, none of them dared to make a move, instead only shouting and cursing from their hiding spots. When they saw that the Huaxianese people had left, they came out again.
“The Huaxianese people have been scared away by us!”
The Hindustani cultivators cheered, and the atmosphere was filled with joy.
