Soul Land V (Douluo Dalu): Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 19: Chapter 18: Experiment and Judgment



Tang San silently returned to his residence, where Wang Zhong was still cultivating in bed. Tang San could feel that his Wind Wolf Transformation cultivation was in a deep state of concentration.

Tang San himself also sat on the bed and quickly mobilized the Mysterious Heaven Method, integrating the portion of the Wind Wolf bloodline he had just absorbed into the operation of the Mysterious Heaven Method.

For him, today was an important experiment, which would determine whether he could continue to break through and find a method for breakthrough. If viable, it would be very beneficial for his future cultivation. The experiment was in two parts: one was to see if absorbing the bloodline power of the Wind Wolf could help him break through his bottleneck, and the other was whether the Third Stage Wind Wolf, whose bloodline power he had absorbed, could recover its bloodline power, or whether it had lost its power completely.

Both aspects were very important and related to his future path of cultivation.

He had long mastered the Mysterious Heaven Method. After absorbing the bloodline power of the Third Stage Wind Wolf, the sensation of the Mysterious Heaven Method's bottleneck loosening was very clear. However, when he operated the Mysterious Heaven Method again, he found the feeling was fading. The Mysterious Heaven Method, which had been loosening, seemed to be suppressed by some invisible pressure and still failed to achieve a breakthrough.

This caused Tang San to frown. If things were different from what he had envisioned, it would be a huge blow to him. Being restricted to his current level of cultivation would be quite troublesome. He would need to find another way.

He was not impatient, still quietly operating the Mysterious Heaven Method, gradually dissolving the absorbed bloodline power.

The Mysterious Heaven Method became a bit more condensed, though it didn't break through to a new level, but overall it seemed to solidify a bit more on top of its peak state. At the same time, Tang San found that the Mark belonging to the Wind Wolf within him had become somewhat stronger. Simply put, the wind blades he could conjure were now larger. When he used the Mysterious Heaven Method to activate this Mark, his aura would exhibit some Wind Wolf changes, and now, these changes seemed likely to grow even more substantial.

Initially, after absorbing the Leopard Flash Demon God Transformation and the bloodline power of the Wind Wolf from Zhu Jiaxin, the Leopard Flash's Mark was significantly stronger than the Wind Wolf's, and thus its effect was better. It basically allowed him to exhibit its power within a ten-meter radius to great effect. While the wind blades condensed from the Wind Wolf bloodline had some power, their strength was not too formidable.

However, today, after absorbing the bloodline power of the Third Stage Wind Wolf, the Mark related to the wind blade clearly became stronger. When he operated the Mysterious Heaven Method to activate the Mark, not only would the Wind Wolf's aura become stronger, but the wind blades also grew significantly larger, with an evident increase in power. It matched the might of a Third Stage Wind Wolf when cast.

Silently absorbing and feeling the changes in himself, Tang San gradually formed his own judgment.

He was now fairly certain that the Mysterious Heaven Method could indeed strengthen itself by absorbing the bloodline power of the Monsters. In the process of absorption, the energy from the devoured bloodline power would become part of the Mysterious Heaven Method, aiding in increasing his cultivation pace. At the same time, the traits within the bloodline would also form Marks that remained. He could transform these abilities represented by the bloodline Marks through the Mysterious Heaven Method.

This was a rather peculiar change and seemed to be unique to his Mysterious Heaven Method. In other words, he could form Marks by absorbing different bloodline powers of the Monsters, granting him their abilities. This was quite interesting.

His previous speculation was probably also correct; if he wanted to break through his bottleneck and not be suppressed by this plane, then devouring the Monsters' bloodline power was a necessary path. His previous sensation of the bottleneck loosening was likely correct; the main reason he hadn't succeeded in breaking through was probably that the intensity of the energy he had devoured wasn't strong enough.

It was a Third Stage Wind Wolf, whose energy intensity within its bloodline was not as strong as his Mysterious Heaven Skill's third level at its peak. Therefore, if he wanted to continue to break through upwards, it was likely that he would need to devour the bloodline power of a Fourth Stage Wind Wolf. By devouring the bloodline of a more powerful Monster, his aura could momentarily resemble that of a more powerful Monster by one tier, and he could take advantage of the moment when the suppression of the plane loosened to break through his bottleneck. That should allow him to reach the Fourth Stage. Moreover, he suspected that from the bottleneck of the Third Stage, future breakthroughs would probably require the same method to avoid the suppression of this plane on him.

If that was the case, he would have a direction and a goal in his cultivation. The next step would be to find a Fourth Stage Wind Wolf and try to devour and absorb its bloodline.

The bloodline of a Fourth Stage Wind Wolf was not abundant in Wind Wolf Town, but he had one right here! Wang Yanfeng was Fourth Stage. If not, as a vassal, he couldn't possibly live in such a house. Among the vassals of Wind Wolf Town, he should be the strongest.

The next experiment was to observe whether the Third Stage Wolf Demon, whose bloodline power he had previously devoured and absorbed, could recover its bloodline strength. If it could recover, then Tang San could start to prepare to look for a Fourth Stage Wolf Demon. Moreover, it was not easy to detect. If the Wolf Demon could not recover, Tang San would have to stay quiet for some time. Mysteriously losing bloodline power, the Wind Wolf Tribe would probably have doubts. One was okay, but if another Fourth Stage also encountered the same problem, even a fool would know something was wrong.

With these judgments, Tang San's mindset stabilized as well, continuing to silently practice the Mysterious Heaven Method. Although he could not break through the bottleneck now, with his cultivation experience, it was always good to accumulate. When the time to break through came, it would happen naturally. The more solid the foundation was now, the easier future cultivation would be.

In the following days, Tang San and his four companions learned and practiced with Wang Yanfeng every day. They spent every morning gaining knowledge and the afternoons practicing and mastering the transformation of the Wind Wolf.

The lives of the five were very fulfilling, contrasting starkly with their previous slave lives—it was like heaven in comparison to earth.

Ling Muxue's mood was always not great, but she was extremely serious during her cultivation and learning.

After several days of learning, everyone's talents also began to show. Among the Wang's Three Brothers, surprisingly, it was Wang Chao, who had awakened at the highest level, whose talent was somewhat inferior, while Wang Zhong and Wang Xiaolei had better talents. They were both somewhat less talented than Ling Muxue.

After several days of guidance and practice in Wind Wolf Transformation, Ling Muxue was now able to undergo a certain degree of transformation into a Wind Wolf, although she still couldn't coalesce wind blades. Even Wang Yanfeng praised such progress.

As for Tang San, he was different again. When Wang Yanfeng saw that the wind blades released by Tang San had clearly increased in size, he was very surprised. Although the wind blades were stronger, Tang San did not show signs of Wind Wolf Transformation. Not even a single wolf hair grew. This made him very curious, but there was nothing he could do. However, he also taught Tang San some additional techniques for Wind Blade Manoeuvres.

And it was during these days that Tang San's experiment was completed. Every night, he would sneak out to find the Wolf Demon he had devoured before. He didn't find it on the first day, nor on the second day. On the third day, he spotted the Wolf Demon from a distance.

Compared to before being devoured, the Wolf Demon was clearly weaker. But after investigating, Tang San found that its bloodline power should have already partially recovered and was gradually becoming stronger. The reason it didn''t show up in the previous two days was probably that it was resting at home, recovering its bloodline power.

That is to say, the bloodline power he had devoured could be restored through rest, albeit requiring some time. For the Wolf Demon, it was like having experienced an illness that could be recovered from with rest.
