Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 115: Success, Finally

He fully understood the consequences of his mind being occupied by the Celestial Fox Transformation.

Du Bai's condition was the best example. The Celestial Fox Transformation, being of an extremely high order, possessed its arrogant instincts. It naturally repelled beings of lower orders. However, if it succeeded in that, Tang San would end up like a second Du Bai—from now on, his only ability would be the Celestial Fox Transformation, and if worse came to worst, he would become utterly useless.

Recklessness sure invites trouble!

However, having resolved the risk of deviating from his cultivation, Tang San now had complete control over his body. Facing the mischief of the Celestial Fox Transformation, he felt no urgency. Instead, he opened his mind wide, allowing it to wreak havoc in his sea of consciousness and absorb his spiritual energy as it wished.

The Celestial Fox Transformation truly integrated with him while absorbing spiritual energy, in a manner very much unlike any bloodline imprint he had absorbed before.

When he absorbed the Chrono Croc Transformation, the changes it brought to Tang San were significant. That integration allowed him to feel the changes in time of this world and be recognized by this plane of existence, aligning him with this world.

The integration with the Celestial Fox Transformation was not just about a bloodline imprint or a single ability. It was an integration of destiny, opening a new level of fortune for him. In a sense, the ability of the Celestial Foxes was closely related to the lord of this plane. It was an existence that could even control certain powers of the plane. This was one reason the Celestial Fox Transformation was highly valued.

After Tang San experienced the transformation of the Celestial Fox bloodline imprint, he came to a judgment about the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor. This demon emperor was likely the messenger of the planar ruler, practically an apostle walking among the living.

A Celestial Fox had no combat power to speak of, but neither did it need any. Being able to borrow the power of the planar ruler and utilize the laws of the plane already placed it at the pinnacle of this world.

During the integration process of the Celestial Fox Vision, Tang San distinctly felt a different connection with the outside world. The very level of his existence seemed to be transforming, leading to a subtle recognition of everything external as insignificant. The level of all the lifeforms around him appeared to be diminishing while his own continually ascended.

The luminescent white of the Celestial Fox Transformation shone increasingly brighter in his spiritual world. This was a transformation of the spirit, and it was even more significant to Tang San than a physical transformation.

Gradually, most of Tang San's spiritual energy was devoured by the Celestial Fox Transformation, which evolved directly from the second to the third order.

Without Tang San needing to absorb more bloodline energy from Du Bai, the Celestial Fox Transformation evolved independently.

This was because Tang San's spiritual energy was much more potent and purer than Du Bai's. Apart from his cultivation, his spiritual power was nourished by the feedback from his divine consciousness, as if his spiritual power also constantly enriched that bit of divine consciousness within him.

That's about it. If this continues, the little boss occupying my spiritual world will likely actively disperse the Mysterious Heaven Technique and fully cause me to assimilate into this world, Tang San thought.

With a thought from Tang San, a pure golden light suddenly flashed in the sea of his mind.

The previously proud, self-satisfied, control-freak, pearly white light instantly froze when this pure golden light appeared.

Almost instantly, that golden light fell upon the pearly white light. In the next instant, the golden light transformed into a large hand in the sea of his mind, grasping the pearly white light.

The previously proud and snooty pearly white light suddenly shivered as if sensing something. Tang San even felt the outside world tremble slightly. This was related to the planar energy connected to the Celestial Fox Transformation.

Fortunately, his Celestial Fox Transformation power was only at the third order, far from enough to directly communicate with the planar ruler.

The golden hand in the sea of his mind suddenly clenched, and in that instant, Tang San could swear that he heard a sharp cry of pain. The next moment, the pearly white light sphere, which had devoured almost all of Tang San's spiritual energy, was flattened under the grip of the golden hand.

A great burst of spiritual energy sprayed out. The overall quantity was reduced compared to before, but the outpouring spiritual energy was no longer gaseous; it had transformed into a pale golden liquid.

Boom—

The sea of consciousness suddenly became tumultuous. In that instant, Tang San's perception skyrocketed, and almost every minute change within a thousand meters radius was clear as daylight in his mind.

Inside the dantian, the pearly white bloodline imprint representing the Celestial Fox Transformation instantly withered, and the Discerning Eye shone brightly in turn. The energy of the Discerning Eye rapidly merged inward, finally adhering to the pearly white core, quickly integrating with it.

Although the pearly white imprint remained the most prominent position, a faint gold layer gradually appeared. This hint of gold was directly connected to Tang San’s sea of consciousness, maintaining a faint connection between it and the dantian.

In the sea of consciousness, the previously pearly white light sphere had shrunk into a ball, quietly floating there. The golden hand that had been grasping it only then relaxed, shaking off. That hint of gold instantly illuminated every corner of Tang San's body, making all his Qi even purer.

The most fundamental energy of heaven and earth from the outside air wildly converged into his body, constantly cleansing and purifying his body and spiritual world.

On a distant mountain peak, Zhang Haoxuan was meditating cross-legged when suddenly he sensed something. He abruptly opened his eyes and looked somewhere in the distance.

In his perception, the energy of heaven and earth suddenly became agitated. It looked like a giant funnel, converging to a point somewhere in the forest.

What's happening? Is there trouble over there? Zhang Haoxuan leaped to his feet, a red light flashed behind him, and he shot off like an arrow in that direction.

Tang San felt better than he ever had before. It was a sense of unparalleled comfort, the kind that signifies a true transformation and rejuvenation of both body and soul.

He could feel that he had utterly merged with this world. The planar suppression that once accompanied his reincarnation was no more. Whether on a physical or spiritual level, he was now in perfect harmony with this realm, feeling an inexplicable connection to it.

His entire being was transparent and connected, with his spiritual consciousness bonding with his bloodline. In an instant, his cultivation level had leaped from the mid-stage to the peak of the fifth order of the Mysterious Heaven Technique.

What surprised him even more was the enhancement of his five bloodline imprints. Apart from the green imprint of the Wind Wolf Transformation, which remained at the peak of the fifth order but deepened in color, the other four imprints ascended by one order.

The Celestial Fox Transformation imprint, which had fallen to the second order after being crushed by a golden hand, had now recovered to the third order. The Leopard Flash advanced to the fifth order, the Chrono Croc Transformation to the fourth, equal to Gu Li's own level, and the Golden Roc Transformation also reached the fourth order. His Discerning Eye and Celestial Fox Transformation had fully integrated. It could be said that his entire being had undergone a sublime elevation.

The most significant enhancement, however, was in Tang San's spiritual power. His sea of consciousness had transformed from a gaseous to a liquid state. This liquid form of spiritual energy was on an entirely different level from before; his spiritual power was thus consolidated and so was his cultivation.

Now, as he cultivated, the gaseous spiritual energy that he produced was slowly converted into liquid. In the same-sized sea of consciousness, a far greater amount of spiritual energy could be contained in liquid form than its gaseous counterpart, giving him a much greater scope for improvement. Even if his sea of consciousness did not expand, his spiritual power could continue to progress more effectively.
