Book 1 Chapter 7.1 – Essence Cleansing Pill
“Haha, Li Yang you brat, I knew that you would be outside taking a stroll around this time. Ah, the division captain was looking for you. He said that he had an important mission for you!” Tian Lin appeared in front of Li Yang, running towards Li Yang while laughing.
“Mission?” Li Yang paused for a moment, shortly afterwards firmly said to Tian Lin “Let’s go.”
After saying this, Li Yang quickly rushed towards their base.
…
Within Heavenly Net’s main base, division captain Meng Tian’s room.
Li Yang, the mission’s objective this time involves a subgroup of one of the world’s top five organizations’ Criminal Organization! This matter deals with the Criminal Organization’s Mountain Pa.s.s group’s core member – the Obsidian Dragon Army named Tianzhong Mingnan. These are all the doc.u.ments related to him, you must a.s.sa.s.sinate him before he leaves China. As for the reason, it is all located within these doc.u.ments!” Meng Tian’s words had a slight hint of killing intent behind them. A small mission that involved the Obsidian Dragon Army was not worth his time. However, this Tianzhong Mingnan in fact made a crucial mistake! A fatal mistake!
The world’s top five organizations’ Criminal Organization was the strongest power in the underworld.
The Criminal Organization’s roots penetrates deeply into society. On the outside, they all look like legitimate companies and enterprises, but nearly everyone was affected in some way by this organization.
Regarding the world’s most powerful underworld powers, other than the Criminal Organization, there was the Terrorist Organization, a.s.sa.s.sination Organization, hired mercenaries, and of course the special divisions of the country such as the Security Bureau 9th and 11th Division.
The Obsidian Dragon Army was indeed Mountain Pa.s.s group’s core, and Obsidian Dragon Army’s members were all crazy militaristic extremists!
“That reminds me, Li Yang, this time Tianzhong Mingnan’s real bodyguard is one of the j.a.panese Loose Four Sword Styles’ Clear Sword Style; a sword expert. I estimate that his offensive capabilities are similar to those of the Xiantian realm,” reminded Meng Tian.
Li Yang laughed in a slightly cold tone. “Warrior? Hah, how can they even compare to ninjas? How would he compare to the Gold Floral rank ninja I fought against last time?”
Meng Tian said while laughing, “Of course he can’t be compared to a ninja. In addition, this fellow is simply near Xiantian level. Even if he was a part of ‘Dual Flowers’, he would simply be at Silver Floral rank. This is precisely why I can hand over this B rank mission over to you without any worries!”
Li Yang with confidence said, “Around this time last year, my victory over that Golden Ranked ninja was simply a fluke. If I were to face him again now though, he will definitely die instantly!”
Li Yang had a lot of confidence, after all, with his mad training over the past year with each session taking up over fifteen hours, his strength has completely improved by several folds. Last year, his energy was simply around 30 crystals, now he had already surpa.s.sed 80 crystals!
“I also understand that you have made significant improvements over the last year. As long as you complete this mission, then the last A rank mission you’ve completed together with this B rank mission will help out your goal of pa.s.sing the upcoming a.s.sessment greatly. Last year, your strength was really too low and you did not get recruited. This year, you will definitely succeed!” Meng Tian said encouragingly.
Suddenly, there was a flash within Li Yang’s eyes. He knew that in order to pa.s.s the a.s.sessment and be recruited into the Security Bureau 11th Division, not only was one’s strength taken into account, but their completed missions were an important factor as well.
The A ranked mission he completed last year was already enough for him to enter the Security Bureau 11th Division, however his strength was really too low. Most likely, this year after he had raised his strength by several times, as well as improving his offensive power by a large margin, he was certain that he could enter the Security Bureau 11th division.
“Division captain, this time I will definitely perfectly and successfully complete this mission. Just wait for my good news!” Li Yang smiled and left while holding the doc.u.ments.
…
The mission objective involved the Mountain Pa.s.s’s core – Obsidian Dragon Army’s Leader, Obsidian Dragon General. The Obsidian Dragon General had five major subordinates, and one of them was named Tianzhong Mingxin. The a.s.sa.s.sination targer this time was his younger brother, Tianzhong Mingnan.
Tianzhong Ming Nan was a person who excelled at flattering. He was able to blend in so well precisely because he had such an amazing brother. Of course, his ability to please his master was also high.
Obsidian Dragon Army’s leader Obsidian Dragon General’s grandchild was born with blocked meridians, and was not able to learn ninjutsu, nor could he learn any sword or knife skills.
The Obsidian Dragon General was already old. During World War II, he was already a fully matured adult, his age now was already at least a hundred. However, even though his age exceeded a hundred, within Mountain Pa.s.s, it was still his words that mattered.
Old people loved their grandchildren; this was a natural instinct, even if it was the Obsidian Dragon General. He too, loved his grandchild, but his grandchild was born with blocked meridians. In other words, ever since he was a baby, his meridians were stuck.
Born with blocked meridians, this was definitely a heavenly punishment. Opening up meridians? That was even more impossible.
Ordinary people at young ages had normal meridians, and only when you grew older would your meridians set. Xiantian realm experts were capable of self-inflicted vitality, which helped one use Xiantian qi to penetrate and nourish one’s meridians, allowing them to once again rejuvenate with energy.
However as for those born with blocked meridians, then there was no way! This was much worse than having meridians stabilized through age!
However, it still couldn’t be said that there was absolutely no method. After all, there was one last way – the Essence Cleansing Pill!
According to legends, there were several ancient and mystical true way cultivators. There goals were to become immortals! These true way cultivators’ skills were beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. Even if it was the Security Bureau 11th Division experts, in front of those true way cultivators, they would not have any way of fighting back.
These true way cultivators at the same time were experts at making pills, one of them being a miraculous pill – the Essence Cleansing Pill. After taking it, the body goes under a complete rebirth. It didn’t matter if you practiced j.a.panese ninjutsu or Chinese internal cultivation, the training will be sped up by a tremendous amount and increased to an alarming rate!
However did they really exist? These true way cultivators were simply characters created from mortals’ hearts. They only existed in folklore, then what about reality? Were there any that existed in reality?
Even if you were a part of the Security Bureau 9th Division, you would not know if these true way cultivators existed. However, the Obsidian Army General knew that such true way cultivators did actually exist. In addition, he knew that the Ninjutsu Five Sects’ sacred text was the same as the Eastern true way cultivator Ten Sects’ comparatively weaker Sect’s fundamental law.
According to legends, that Sect was known as – the Wu Hang clan!
A small true way cultivator sect’s most basic fundamental law was actually the Ninjutsu Five Sects’ sacred text! This caused the Obsidian Dragon General to have no choice but feel fear!
As for the reason why Tianzhong Mingnan came to China, it was because his brother Tianzhong Mingxing relayed this mission to him. The mission was to bring back the Essence Cleansing Pill so that it could be gifted to the Obsidian Dragon General!
