133 STAKE-OUT

The Keeper instructed Long Tao to check his condition before going into the retreat. ” I would suggest you elevate your body stats to the best possible state. Just like three minor realms, there is a relation between three sets of the major realm too.”

” A break-through to the Qi general level is just like breaking through the 4th stage of any realm from the 3rd stage. The task wouldn’t be easy to accomplish.” Long Tao wanted to have a bit more clarity.

” The first three cultivation realms are called ‘Foundation realms.’ The second set of three realms are called ‘warrior realms.’ The last three are called the ‘ Tribulation realm.’ The final realm is called the ascender realm/ Qi god.”

” You lay a foundation of your body and perfect it until the Qi master realm. Due to the three sets of arts and the humongous amount of resources you used, you managed to build a perfect foundation.”

” When you enter the ‘Qi General,’ you will have to form a dantian in your body. It can otherwise be called as your Qi centre or Qi source. The condensed Qi sea had to develop into a dantian.”

“The next three realms you will be perfecting the dantian along with the body. You need to be at a perfect state to have a smooth break-through.”

Long Tao thanked the Keeper for his explanation regarding the matter.

.............................

Long Tao utilized a total of 3 days within the crimson lord world, making pills and consuming them. It was challenging to reach a perfect state instantly, given the burden of creating resources for the squad. He was finally able to get to his prime.

.....

” We will be burning the extracted essence from the soul calming herbs. You should begin the break-through.”

Long Tao began to concentrate on his condense Qi sea. The creation of dantian was to try to solidify the Qi into a Qi center theoretically. Long Tao started to the process of compressing his Qi.

The Keeper had asked Long Tao to built a Qi gathering formation in his retreat cave. He connected the structure with the Qi pools present in the Crimson lord world.

” The essence Qi collected will be flowing into the formation. The break-through depends on him.”. Multiple varieties of Qi started flowing into the formation and absorbed by Long Tao’s body.

............................

The compression was taking place steadily. Long Tao believed in maintaining patience throughout the process. The solidification started soon.

Long Tao’s Qi sea was slowly getting converted into a concentrated mass of Qi shards. These shards continued to thicken and form a rough structure.

Long Tao was conducting two simultaneous activities: Directing the Qi to form a dense matter, and compressing the concentrated mass. Both of those activities demanded high Qi expenditure and took a lot of time, but Long tao eventually managed to pull it off.

A significant problem while forming the dantian was the fact that he could pile up all the different types of energies together. He had to create separate centers for each class.

After the final drop of Qi was consumed, a robust framework was left behind. Three glowing pieces were present in the Long Tao’s body. It was like having three different Qi centers. Each one of them had a different attribute.

The first signified Hell & Heaven Qi, the second signified the elemental Qi, and the third was a typical Qi center. He decided to report t to the Keeper.

” Congratulations on your break-through. I suppose it did work.” Long Tao managed to understand the Keeper’s reference. He didn’t expect the Keeper to connect the Qi pool to the formation.

It was the reason he didn’t feel any lack of Qi during his dantian formation.

” We can now proceed with the abilities you unlock with this break-through of yours.” Long Tao was excited to discover what his new powers were.

..........................

Tamar-

” We will be leaving now.” Long Tao announced the order for departure. Each soldier was provided a unique set of resources consisting of weapons, pills, herbs, grenades, and many more.

” You will be forming small teams in the same pattern we followed during your training camp.” After the division was formally made, Long tao decided to designate one soldier from each group as team leaders.

” Our first mission is a detection for enemy spies. We will be eliminating any informant of the Chu military roaming our borders. I have managed to get my hands on some possible hide-outs. Remember your training routine. Never lose focus and be each other’s back-up.”

” The second objective would be divided into two sub-parts: One set of groups will be performing the stakeout and assassination, while the other will be preparing to set the ambush. ”

” All of this will be occurring mid-way between the two nations, and hence during these two months, the only nemesis we are going to find is some small stakeout groups like us. Eliminate as many as possible.”

” You will be rendezvousing in the designated locations for resupply of pills, weapons and ambush equipment. The formation layout is already present with the commanders. ”

” May the best one win” Long tao raised his hands in a salute and dismissed the squad.

..........................

One day later-

” Do we any reports from 3 and 6? Long tao was analyzing the reports provided by the various groups. The troops managed to take care of a number fo spies within the borders. They were slowly pushing them back.

The matter which concerned Long tao was the number of spies. It was quite large for a stakeout mission. If they managed to perform while remaining undetected for so long, it meant that they had a large substation within these forests.

” If I am correct, the sub-station must belong t the assassins organization who were supporting the coup. I didn’t expect to meet them so soon.”

He sent a command message to each of the team leaders. ” you will be inspecting the whole area up to thirty miles radius from your current position for possible substations of the enemy.

His first objective just changed. The situation demanded them to eliminate the substation.
