Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

Tang San shook his head slightly and said, "I've already prepared what I need. You just need to keep collecting Heavenly Fire Essence Iron for me, as much as possible. You must also continue your own cultivation. Although it's impossible for you to become a Great Demon King in a year, your potential is incredible now that you passed that lightning tribulation. As long as you keep working on it, you should be able to contend with Great Demon Kings in a year."

Mei Gongzi frowned and asked, "Will you be in seclusion for a long time?"

"I don't know, it depends on my progress. I need to purify my various bloodlines and make some preparations. After that, I might go to the Ancestral Court again. Also, I've already partially refined the Spacetime Beacon, and I'll try to create a long-distance teleportation array to ensure your safety during your evaluation."

"Alright then," Mei Gongzi said somewhat dejectedly.

Tang San smiled and said, "Okay, I'll be off then. If you need anything, send me a message remotely."

"Mm." Mei Gongzi nodded.

Tang San bid farewell and walked out the door.

Watching his departing figure, the reluctance in Mei Gongzi's eyes grew stronger. He had left!

Over the past month, she had transitioned from being a flustered princess to gradually getting things on track. Thanks to her decision of trusting the two deer demon clans and entrusting them with significant responsibilities, they now fully supported her. Even if there was some discontent within the Peacock Demon clan, at least no dissenting voices were heard. All in all, she had things under control.

But only she knew that it was because Tang San had been her backbone, offering advice and strategies, that she was able to quickly organize everything and not fall behind in her cultivation.

Now that he was suddenly leaving, Mei Gongzi felt like something was missing from her heart. An indescribable emptiness filled her, and her reluctance became increasingly strong.

Why didn't you ask him to stay just now! a voice in her heart said.

Another voice snapped, I shouldn't have asked him to stay! He is going to do important things. Without proper preparation, how can he face his tribulation?

But, what should I do if he's not by my side?

Mei Gongzi's previously good mood suddenly turned gloomy. She hadn't even realized that she had become dependent on Tang San. It was only now, when he was no longer here, that she understood this, and she felt particularly downhearted.

Their relationship was somewhat delicate now. After the tribulation, when she accompanied him during his recovery, she had completely accepted that Tang San and Asura were the same person, and she knew that she wanted him by her side. And later, as they were busy sorting out the matters of the clan and the city, he had indeed been by her side all the time.

She trusted him unconditionally, and he helped her stabilize the situation.

However, neither of them had addressed the subtle nature of their relationship. And Mei Gongzi knew clearly that she could no longer see him as just an elder brother.

Now, with his sudden departure, a strong sense of anxiety and insecurity welled up from deep within her heart.

After leaving Mei Gongzi's room, Tang San let out a long breath. He could actually sense the changes in Mei Gongzi's mindset. Since inheriting the position of clan leader, she had become very dependent on him on one hand, yet seemed to avoid him on the other. It was clear that she was not quite sure how to face the matter of their relationship.

This was not the state Tang San wanted to see, but he knew that it was completely normal. It was not easy for Mei Gongzi to accept such sudden changes; she needed time.

Therefore, after helping her organize everything, he decided to simply leave. On one hand, he truly needed to go into seclusion to perfect his various abilities and adjust his state. On the other hand, he wanted to give her some space and time to think about their relationship and how they should interact.

He wondered whether he should have been more proactive, but as he pondered, he felt he had done all he could. Given Mei Gongzi's character, he couldn't force things in any way. It was better to let her calm down and see how things would go. The upcoming evaluation at the Ancestral Court and his tribulation were critical; once those things were settled, they would have all the time in the world.

As long as Tang San successfully overcame his tribulation and transformed his spiritual power into divine consciousness, he would be able to directly cultivate his seed of divine consciousness. At the same time, he would regain some of the God King power from his previous life. At that point, even Emperors would find it difficult to kill him, and he would truly have the power to protect himself.

The tribulation and the evaluation would likely need to be addressed simultaneously, both in one go. Success meant he would be like a fish leaping into the wide sea or a bird leaving the cage to fly in the high sky—he would be practically unimpeded. The next step would be to consider how to return to his original world.

Lately, he had been busy with Mei Gongzi; even during his own cultivation, he had been helping her absorb the energy of the tribulation and improve her comprehension. But Tang San himself also needed time to sort out his abilities properly, and now was the moment.

Leaving the ancestral castle of the Peacock Demon clan, Tang San used the Peacock Transformation to teleport. After several shifts, he returned to Golden Valley.

After merging with that Golden Tree spirit essence, the new Golden Tree in the valley was thriving. In terms of pure life energy, this place was unquestionably among the best in the entire Daemon Continent.

The Crimson Fox girls had made rapid progress since using the Fox Tail Relics. Red One was now on the verge of reaching the ninth order. Their bloodlines were being continuously purified and enhanced thanks to the daily nourishment of the life energy. If they continued to cultivate this way, reaching the peak of the ninth order would be no problem.

The practice of the God-Slaying Crossbow had not been neglected either. They had been diligently training and could now use it proficiently.

Sensing Tang San's presence, Red One immediately ran out.

"Master, welcome back!"

Tang San nodded to her and said, "I need to go into seclusion for a while, I will be meditating right here under the Golden Tree. Just make sure no one approaches me."

"Understood." Red One quickly agreed, though she didn't know why. She sensed that Tang San was somewhat exhausted.

After giving her instructions, Tang San sat down under the Golden Tree, leaning against its trunk, which was now so thick that it required six or seven people to encircle it. Feeling the warm energy of life nourishing his body, Tang San entered a meditative state.

He was, indeed, exhausted. Helping Mei Gongzi through her tribulation had harmed him to the very core. Although he had recovered thanks to the powerful Golden Armor Transformation, he was far from his best state. He had been constantly busy with matters concerning Mei Gongzi, and while his body was mostly fine, he was mentally fatigued.

Within a few moments, he had sunk into a deep state of meditation, quickly reaching a state of forgetting both himself and the outside world.

When Tang San awakened from his meditation, it was already dark, with only the Golden Tree emitting a faint golden halo, providing some light to the valley.

This deep meditation had allowed him to completely relax. Tang San felt refreshed, with all his fatigue gone, leaving an indescribable sense of comfort and ease.

The various bloodline imprints within his dantian were all calmly floating in their places.

The Golden Armor Transformation still shone like a small sun, radiating dazzling brilliance. Its aura alone seemed to overshadow the other bloodline imprints.

Moreover, under its influence, the other bloodline imprints were subtly evolving.

Following the Golden Armor Transformation were the Discerning Eye of Heaven, Peacock Transformation, Lion-Tiger Transformation, Dragon Roc Transformation, Chrono Croc Transformation, Crystal Transformation, and Blue Silver Emperor.

The Blue Silver Emperor was wrapped in the yin-yang energy vortex, as usual, but recently, it had been showing signs of merging with it. Under the stimulation of the Golden Armor Transformation, the imprint was becoming more and more cohesive.

Of the nine bloodline imprint positions, eight were already filled, and except for the Blue Silver Emperor, the others had reached the ninth order.
