Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Tang San was unaware of Zhang Haoxuan's rich inner thoughts. He knew that Zhang Haoxuan was aware of him teaching other abilities to the group, and there was no need to hide it. Relying on his bit of divine consciousness and the perceptions of fate changes after integrating the Celestial Fox Transformation, he was confident that Zhang Haoxuan harbored no ill will toward him.

He didn't need the Redemption Society to do anything for him; all he needed was a safe place and time to improve himself. As he became more familiar with this world, he was gradually finding the direction for his advancement.

So far, the most significant help he had received in this world was the integration of Du Bai's Celestial Fox Transformation. The fusion of the Celestial Fox Vision into his Discerning Eye had allowed his spiritual power to liquefy at a young age, a transformational change. More importantly, this liquefied spiritual power had started to nourish his bit of divine consciousness, which was crucial.

By strengthening that bit of divine consciousness, he might soon be able to use some of his abilities from his past life, and eventually regain the stature of a God King.

Back in his room, Tang San didn't rush to cultivate. He was still pondering the matter of Mei Gongzi attending school.

From her appearance, Mei Gongzi seemed a bit older than him, but not by much; girls tended to mature earlier, after all. She seemed to be around twelve or thirteen years old. What kind of institution would she attend at this age, especially as a human vassal?

Based on his knowledge so far, she would likely be attending some basic school.

Sighing internally, Tang San remembered that there were several basic schools in Kali City. However, the city was so vast that it would be impossible to search them all. Most importantly, if Mei Gongzi frequently attended school, the chances of seeing her at the milk tea shop would be slim, which Tang San was reluctant to accept.

Oh, I miss you so much...

He couldn't just ask Mei Gongzi's mother which school she attended. What should he do?

Right, he couldn't afford to be daunted by the difficulty! It was just a matter of basic schools. Starting tomorrow, he would investigate how many there were and then check each one until he found her.

With this thought, Tang San's determination solidified. He believed he would find Mei Gongzi and her school. First, he would need a detailed map of Kali City that marked the schools'locations.

With a direction in mind, his heart settled. Tang San took out the Dragon Tendon Fruit; it was time to consume it. He needed to strengthen his physique further, as only a robust body could bear more energy. Otherwise, his body would become the greatest hindrance to his continued advancement.

Bringing the Dragon Tendon Fruit to his lips, he bit into it, and a fragrant juice flowed into his mouth. The fruit quickly withered, and the aromatic liquid flowed down his throat. As it descended, the temperature suddenly spiked, like a line of fire, instantly plunging into Tang San's abdomen.

The warm liquid imparted an indescribable, peculiar sensation as a heat wave rushed swiftly toward his limbs and bones. A fiery energy instantly engulfed Tang San's entire body, making him feel like steam enveloped him. His skin turned red, radiating intense heat.

What potent medicinal strength! Tang San remained clear-headed amidst all this. He circulated the energy of the Mysterious Heaven Technique, spreading the medicine's effect throughout his body.

Harnessing his mighty spiritual power, he could distinctly feel the efficacy of the Dragon Tendon Fruit permeating his body, subtly transforming every part of him.

Truly deserving of its exorbitant price as a heavenly treasure, this substance might not significantly boost energy, but its nourishing effects on the body were remarkable.

Feeling the fiery baptism on his body, Tang San gradually entered a state of meditation.

With his body at the center, the surrounding air temperature noticeably rose as the Dragon Tendon Fruit subtly and silently tempered his body.

The entire night passed in such silent cultivation.

As the first rays of sunlight entered the room in the early morning, Tang San awoke from his meditation.

A sensation of soreness and itchiness pervaded his entire body. Opening his eyes, Tang San instinctively stretched, flexing his body.

Instantly, he heard a series of crackling sounds from his bones, and it seemed as if this simple movement was stretching out the meridians within his body.

The feeling of soreness and itchiness gradually gave way to comfort. The vital energy and blood surged within him, bringing a refreshing and clear sensation and a lingering sour and stinky smell.

When Tang San looked down, he saw a layer of gray dirt on his skin, the source of the unpleasant odor.

Without a doubt, this was the effect of the Dragon Tendon Fruit purging impurities from his body. The Mysterious Heaven Technique had such an effect by itself, but the added nourishment of the Dragon Tendon Fruit enhanced it significantly.

After getting out of bed, Tang San didn't rush to wash up. Instead, he performed a few stretching exercises to loosen his body thoroughly, a faint smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.

After a satisfying bath, Tang San silently observed the changes in his body.

In just one night, he had grown at least three to four centimeters taller, and even his lean physique seemed to have filled out a bit. His skin and muscles had become more elastic as if his entire being had grown.

The effect of the Dragon Tendon Fruit was indeed impressive. The bloated feeling in his body due to the excessive amount of energy had noticeably lessened. It wasn't as difficult to bear. Although it was still improbable to push the Mysterious Heaven Technique to the seventh order quickly, his physique had unquestionably advanced.

It was time for breakfast, but with five students absent, the cafeteria seemed somewhat emptier.

As soon as Tang San entered, he saw Du Bai and Cheng Zicheng eating together.

When Tang San caught sight of Cheng Zicheng, he immediately noticed her changes. She looked noticeably more mature, as if she had aged a year or two in a short time. Her facial features had become a little more slender, giving her the air of a young lady. Her skin was radiant and glossy, and her figure appeared more slender and toned.

This was obviously the effect of the Dragon Tendon Fruit.

Tang San sat down next to them. Du Bai turned his head to look at him and couldn't help but exclaim, "The effect of the Dragon Tendon Fruit is excellent! Tang San, you've changed too, just like Zicheng. No way, I will buy one to eat later; this thing can even make people more attractive!"

Tang San had grown taller in his eyes, and his appearance and temperament had subtly changed. He was no longer as thin and small; rather, he seemed slender and nimble. His skin was more lustrous, and his facial features had lightened up, making him much more pleasing to the eye.

Tang San smiled slightly and said, "If you have enough money, eating it will benefit you somewhat. However, spiritual elixirs are more suitable for you. Your Celestial Fox Vision relies more on spiritual power for support."

Du Bai chuckled softly and said in a lowered voice, "It's useful, you know. Practicing the Purple Demon Eyes has been beneficial. After breaking through to the fourth order, the effect is much more noticeable. As I practice it, I can clearly feel my spiritual power increasing. After practicing this morning, I felt a change in the sea of my consciousness."

"What change?" Tang San asked curiously.
