Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 932: You Know Too Much

Tang San shook his head and said, "There's no need to be so nervous. The Emperors understand very well that the Ancestral Tree cannot truly awaken. The Ancestral Tree governs the life origin of the plane. That's the most fundamental force of any realm. Back then, its divine sense didn't scatter because it died, but because it had ascended to a certain level without a divine seat to support its vast divine consciousness. That's what led to its fusion with heaven and earth. It became part of the world itself. So what's awakening now is merely its instincts, not its actual spirit. If it were truly awakening, the entire plane would be shaken. Even the laws of the universe wouldn't permit such a thing."

Xiao He nodded in realization. "So that's how it is. I thought the rush to hold the matchmaking tournament was because of the Ancestral Tree's awakening. But in the end, it's still just a contest for the Emperor seats. And now that another seat has opened up, the competition will be even fiercer rather than calming down. More eleventh-order powerhouses will believe they have a shot. Are you and Little Mei going to each claim a seat?"

Tang San nodded slightly. "Yes. Well, we'll probably take all three seats."

Xiao He's eyes sharpened. "You mean... one single throne is not wide enough for you to sit down on?"

He was too sharp not to catch the hidden meaning behind Tang San's words.

Tang San chuckled. "You know too much."

A trace of worry flickered in Xiao He's eyes. "You're playing with fire. I just hope you'll keep Little Mei in mind and avoid reckless moves. Your safety—both of yours—is far more important than becoming an Emperor. Do you understand me? As her father, I can't bear to see her in danger."

Tang San smiled gently. "You can rest assured, I value that more than anything. I won't make a move unless I'm absolutely certain. There's no such thing as risk for me."

"Good. To be honest, it does feel like you've grown more restrained. Seems you gained a lot on your trip." Xiao He looked at Tang San with admiration. Even with his own cultivation rising, he couldn't remotely sense the limits of Tang San's strength.

"Since I'm here, Father-in-law, I can't just leave without doing anything. Let me help you with something." As he spoke, Tang San raised his palm and slapped it directly against Xiao He's chest.

Xiao He didn't even have time to react. In the next moment, he felt as though his entire body had been thrown into a blazing furnace.

A torrent of overwhelming life energy surged into his body, flowing even into his sea of consciousness. For a moment, he felt as if his soul was leaving his body. His blood began to boil, and the Peacock Demon blood in his veins erupted with brilliant silver radiance.

Tang San's eyes glowed an intense blue, and the rich life aura emanating from him instantly startled the powerhouses on Crescent Island.

In mere moments, figure after figure appeared nearby, many of them familiar faces.

Zhang Haoxuan arrived, followed by Tang San's companions, Du Bai, Cheng Zicheng, Gu Li, and Wu Bingji. They were now all core members of both Redemption Academy and the entire Redemption Society.

When they saw that it was Tang San, they all breathed a sigh of relief. In the next instant, they too were enveloped in the boundless life energy Tang San had released.

Wu Bingji felt it most acutely. His cultivation had already reached the peak of the ninth order, and he'd long been suppressing his breakthrough, following Tang San's advice to accumulate strength. Tang San had told him that by restraining himself at the ninth order, he could build a more solid foundation and achieve even greater potential when he eventually advanced to become a Nymph King.

With the stimulus from the Throne of Frost, Wu Bingji's bloodline had already been elevated significantly. He had been holding back for a long time, but now, under the overwhelming flood of life energy, he could no longer suppress his advancement. He erupted with brilliant icy-blue light, and the sky above darkened instantly.

Tang San smiled faintly. Above his head, a white vertical eye appeared, glowing with multicolored light: the Discerning Eye of Heaven. A dazzling white beam of light fell upon Du Bai. Then, a golden radiance burst forth from within Tang San, enveloping Cheng Zicheng. Finally, a spectral, twisting image of a pagoda emerged, enveloping Gu Li.

At that moment, all of them felt an uncontrollable surge of power within their bodies. Their bloodlines were all ignited at the same time!

"There's no more time for leisurely training. I hope I'm not forcing the sprout to grow by pulling it up. From today onward, you'll need to train even harder in order to stabilize your power."

Tang San's voice echoed in their minds, but by now, Wu Bingji, Gu Li, Cheng Zicheng, and Du Bai had already lost the ability to think clearly about what was going on and what he meant. All they could do was etch his words into their memories.

Their bloodline power surged rapidly, and Wu Bingji directly hit the threshold of his tribulation. The others, too, advanced swiftly, drawing closer to his level. The sky above grew darker by the second.

Tang San's eyes gradually turned gold. In front of him, Xiao He was undergoing the same transformation as Wu Bingji. Under the overwhelming infusion of life energy, his Peacock Transformation bloodline was boiled and purified. Even the last bits of incompatibility between his soul and his body were going away; soul and body were being melted into one by the life energy, allowing his reborn divine consciousness and his "borrowed" physical form to merge more perfectly.

Previously, his divine consciousness had been sealed for fear that his sea of consciousness couldn't bear it. But now, this sea of consciousness was undergoing a transformation; the power of his divine consciousness was no longer of much concern.

Zhang Haoxuan also felt the nourishment of Tang San's vast life energy. Though he couldn't break through for now, his bloodline power was being rapidly purified; this enhanced both his cultivation and his potential.

As the only one still able to think clearly, Zhang Haoxuan was utterly stunned. What level has this kid reached now?

Tang San was single-handedly pushing five people straight into the tenth order!

But what shocked Zhang Haoxuan even more was what was happening around Crescent Island. Countless pale blue specks of light were rising into the sky. The clouds above had long since thickened, but the lightning tribulation that should have arrived immediately was still nowhere in sight, as if something was holding it back.

Has he reached the point where he can suppress the tribulation itself? Zhang Haoxuan wondered in disbelief.

The answer was, in fact, yes. Tang San was back on Crescent Island, where he could draw upon boundless faith energy. With his divine seat, there was no other being in this plane who could rival him in terms of pure authority. By channeling faith energy to obscure the flow of fate, he could hide his actions from the laws of heaven, effectively preventing the tribulation from finding its targets.

"Father-in-law, your turn." Tang San raised his hand and gently pushed Xiao He forward.

By now, Xiao He had fully awakened. Silver light radiated from his body, and behind him, a brilliant silver peacock projection shimmered into view.

The faith energy barrier in the sky cracked open and a massive bolt of lightning descended from the heavens, rushing straight toward Xiao He.

Silver light flashed in Xiao He's eyes. He raised his hands and shifted his posture. Instantly, the lightning veered off course and passed by his body—Star Shift, the Peacock Demon clan's ultimate divine technique!
