The medicine was the blood of a person who took two great extreme immortal herbs he once ate.
The medicinal effect of the two immortal herbs had long since completely fused within Tang San, making Tang San's blood the undoubtedly best medicine. He lightly cut open his wrist. He knew that if he made even the slightest sound, his father would wake up.
In order to keep the smell of blood from leaking out, he had even opened the Blue Silver Domain to conceal it.
Blood dripped into the cauldron like wriggling little snakes. Out of fear that the medicinal effect would be insufficient, Tang San let the blood flow until he felt faint and his vision blurred, then swiftly stopped the bleeding.
Just like Tang Hao said, in terms of body alone, Tang San could already reach the top three in the Continent. In just a moment, the wound was already completely scabbed over. Tang San knew that by tomorrow morning, there wouldn't even be a scar left.
With the best ingredient, the following refining was only to be expected.
As Tang Hao woke up from cultivation early the next morning, Tang San already cupped a deep red pill in his hand.
"Dad, eat it. Afterwards there will be no need to worry about the environmental effect here, and you can always accompany mom."
Tang Hao nodded slightly. Seeing his son's somewhat pale complexion, he didn't say anything, only swallowing the elixir.
Tang San stayed here another three days since he wanted to make sure his mom could adapt to the environment here.
Events were happy, the blue silver emperor grew quickly as Tang San anticipated. Making Tang San even happier was that after eating the pill he refined, Tang Hao's health changed greatly. Because the turbulence in his qi and blood left behind by losing two limbs disappeared, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was also unable to influence him in any way.
"Little San, come here."
Early morning, Tang Hao called over Tang San who had just finished cultivating his Purple Demon Eye.
"You start off in a moment. I'll keep your mom company here, no need to worry."
Looking at the seemingly refined and handsome son in front of him, Tang Hao's eyes were brimming with gratification.
Tang San knew that he indeed couldn't keep lingering here. He still had a lot of things to do. Even if his parents had already found a place to settle down, the responsibility on his father's shoulders had already shifted to him.
"Dad, when can I go find Xiao Wu?"
Tang San probed.
Tang Hao smiled slightly, saying:
"You can go once you're sixtieth ranked and need to get a spirit ring. At that time, she should also not be far from entering the mature stage. Once she's reached the mature stage, as long as you disguise yourselves a little bit, you don't need to fear being randomly recognized. Of course, before your strength is sufficient, try to appear in front of Spirit Hall as little as possible. Furthermore, before you go looking for her, first make the trip back to the sect to settle the matters I've left for you. I should say again that I believe you definitely can do everything I've asked you to. However, remember one thing. Even though your dad has very high hopes for you, you are my son."
Tang San of course understood the meaning of his father's words, nodding forcefully,
"Dad, don't worry, I know propriety."
"Go. There's also no need to urgently return to see us. With your mom for company, this is the best place for me to retire."
Tang San left. There were still far too many matters still remaining for him to do. When he left, he practically turned his head three times every step to see his father, and to see his mother.
His father's lonely crippled silhouette, his mother returned to a plant, all this lay at the feet of Spirit Hall.
As Tang San left his father's line of sight, his eyes had already become ice cold. He had not only inherited Tang Hao's responsibility, but also his enmity.
The criminals who killed his mother couldn't live under the same sky as him. The tragedy of his parents had to be repaid in blood.
At this moment, Tang San had already formulated his only life goal, the thorough destruction of Spirit Hall by his own hand.
Obtaining the blue silver emperor right leg bone didn't increase Tang San's spirit power, it only purified it one step further. However, connecting the Governing Vessel had given him enormous benefits. With the eight extraordinary meridians connected, Tang San's spirit power had already directly risen to the fifty ninth rank. He only needed a bit of time to saturate his spirit power before he could start attacking the sixtieth rank bottleneck. At that time, he could also go find the Xiao Wu he hadn't seen in five years.
Five years ago, he still wasn't fifteen, but was already a world shaking member of the Spirit Master world's young generation. Five years later he was twenty, harboring three great spirit bones, twin spirits, and two great domains, what kind of shock could he give the Spirit Master world now?
As Tang San stepped out of the Sunset Forest, the entire Spirit Master world had already begun to change.
...
Spirit City, Supreme Pontiff Palace, the meeting hall.
Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong sat in the seat of honor, the Golden Generation of Spirit Hall, Xie Yue, Hu Liena, and Yan, standing quietly behind her.
Five years ago the golden generation had relied mainly on Xie Yue. Five years later, Hu Liena's accomplishments had already surpassed her elder brother's.
Below the Supreme Pontiff around the enormous oval meeting table sat altogether twenty people. Each person was gorgeously dressed, their manner grave. Judging by the clothes they wore, these people were all the pivotal great characters of Spirit Hall. At least in the area of Master Spirit Hall officials.
The entire Continent had only two Spirit Temple masters, and every single platinum bishop was present.
If outsiders saw this scene, they would definitely understand that major events were taking place in Spirit Hall.
The gaze of each person present was focused on Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong, waiting for her to address them.
Bibi Dong's gaze swept across the subordinates present, and said in a low voice:
"Following discussions with the elders of Elder Hall, there are currently three great decisions to announce."
Everyone swiftly sat straight, focusing their attention to listen respectfully to the words of this powerful Supreme Pontiff.
Even if the Supreme Pontiffs of all the generations had great authority, Bibi Dong displayed it especially distinctly. Even though she was a woman, she was always known for her iron fisted handling of Spirit Hall's affairs.
Even the present Elder Hall wouldn't lightly dare question her decisions. For at least a decade, there hadn't been a dissenting voice in Spirit Hall.
Of course, this was also very greatly related to Bibi Dong's ideal governance, making Spirit Hall's influence grow more each day, even to the extent that it already exceeded the accomplishments of the two great Empires.
"The first matter. As Supreme Pontiff, I have already decided on my replacement. Following discussions with Elder Hall, I declare that from today on, Hu Liena is conferred the rank of Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden, the first ranked successor to Supreme Pontiff."
Most everyone had already long ago anticipated this decision. Even Xie Yue and Yan could both hide their jealousy very well.
After all, the upper echelons of Spirit Hall largely knew about Hu Liena smoothly leaving Slaughter City one year ago, obtaining the Deathgod Domain. Moreover, this well known figure of Spirit Hall's Golden Generation was reportedly on the verge of breaking through the sixtieth rank.
And she still wasn't twenty six years old. This was unique in the history of Spirit Hall. Consequently, even though she was the Supreme Pontiff's direct disciple, nobody raised any doubts.
Bibi Dong's gaze swept over the faces of all the participants. Even though her gaze was very calm, the upper echelons of Spirit Hall present naturally understood what Her Holiness was looking for. The tactful ones immediately nodded their praise, and even if someone was a bit slow to react, nobody showed the slightest look of discontent.
Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong said with satisfaction:
"Hu Liena was taught by me, but the honor she obtains today is all the result of her own efforts. I believe everyone has already heard, but I can tell all of you here that she really did leave Slaughter City, and moreover obtained the Deathgod Domain."
Unsuppressable gasps echoed. Rumor was one thing, having it personally confirmed by the Supreme Pontiff was another matter altogether. Bibi Dong's efforts to build influence for this disciple of hers could even be said to be painstaking.
Even though she herself wasn't very old and could still hold the seat of Supreme Pontiff for a very long time, she would still establish her own authority over Spirit Hall one step further.
"The second matter. According to our several years of investigation, the whereabouts of that hundred thousand year spirit beast that once appeared in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament five years ago have already been basically ascertained. Not long ago, a small search party of ours discovered her tracks in the Star Dou Great Forest. We can be almost certain that she's hiding there. Hundred thousand year spirit beasts can be discovered but not sought, and this hundred thousand year spirit beast is moreover still in the human form's youngling stage, her strength still weak. This time, no miscalculations are allowed to occur. Therefore, I've decided to send Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, leading a party of twenty cardinals of at least the seventieth rank, as well as Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan, to search the Star Dou Great Forest. It must be found and brought back alive for me to deal with."
Sitting below the Supreme Pontiff, Yue Guan and Gui Mei stood simultaneously, bowing in acceptance of the orders.
Standing behind the Supreme Pontiff, Hu Liena's face revealed a difficult to inhibit excitement. She of course understood that her teacher wanted to catch this hundred thousand year spirit beast in order to obtain her spirit ring, but she simultaneously clearly understood that her teacher already had a full set of spirit bones, and didn't need another.
And as the Spirit Hall's Holy Maiden, the next Supreme Pontiff, this hundred thousand year spirit bone would inevitably belong to her.
Even disregarding this spirit bone, just the chance of taking revenge for the humiliation originally visited by the Shrek Seven Devils was enough to make her excited. If only she knew the whereabouts of Tang San, if she encountered him, she would definitely flay his skin and rip out his flesh.
