Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

"Yes, haven't you always wanted to go into the city to see what it's like? This is a perfect opportunity for me to bring you along," Wang Yanfeng said with a smile. freewebnove(l)

For Tang San, he had a rather strange mix of emotions. Over the past year, he had taught Tang San a lot but also learned a great deal from Tang San. Initially, he had thought that Tang San mainly had some superficial knowledge of that mysterious person. However, when he started learning to control the wind blades from Tang San, he realized that Tang San had opened a new door for him.

Although Wang Yanfeng’s cultivation still stagnated at the fourth order, he was confident that compared to himself a year ago, he was now in a completely different league.

This change was all thanks to Tang San. So, despite his young age, Wang Yanfeng had never underestimated him. At the same time, he also noticed that the power of Tang San’s Wind Blade had been steadily increasing. Wang Yanfeng couldn't be sure of Tang San's true strength now, but he could sense that this kid was making rapid progress.

For that reason, during combat training, only the other four would spar with each other. Tang San was exempted from participating in these exercises by Wang Yanfeng, who cited his young age as the reason.

Tang San had been able to defeat him even a year back, so what was the point of further combat training? Moreover, Wang Yanfeng had to be very careful to conceal Tang San's true strength.

Being able to go to the city was undoubtedly good news to Tang San. He was immensely curious about the world and wanted to learn as much as possible. If it weren't for his lack of strength and lack of a legitimate identity, he would have liked to leave this place a long time ago.

From Wang Yanfeng's teachings, he knew that the world was vast, incredibly so. It was even more extensive than the Douluo Continent of his previous life. Finding a single person in such a boundless world was like searching for a needle in a haystack. It was difficult, far too difficult. Moreover, humans were simply insignificant in this world. He couldn't be sure what Xiao Wu's situation would be like after her reincarnation.

The reason he couldn't bear to part with that fragment of divine consciousness unless there was a true life-or-death situation was also that it allowed him to faintly sense whether his wife was still alive.

This was the only thing he could be sure of now. Yes, his wife was still alive, somewhere in a corner of this vast world. If he could get his cultivation back to the God level, he could use his divine consciousness to search for her more efficiently. But he couldn't wait!

Even though the spiritual energy in this world was highly abundant, there were still many limitations in this dimension for him. In such circumstances, he didn’t know how much suppression and hardship he would have to endure to cultivate to the God level. In addition, he also couldn’t know what would happen to his wife while he struggled to reach that level.

Whether she was safe and whether she would fall in love with someone else and become their partner were the things Tang San worried about the most. Naturally, the stronger he became, the more impatient he was to leave this place.

As he pondered, his gaze shifted toward the map before him. This map was quite crude, and it only had minimal marking and some general notations.

The map had a line stretching from the northwest to the southeast, serving as a divider. One side of the line was labeled “Empyrean Dominion,” while the other was marked as the “Solstice Empire.” The diagonal line was the territorial demarcation between the demons and nymphs. As for the land size, the two empires were almost equal, though it seemed that the Solstice Empire, ruled by the nymphs, was ever-so-slightly bigger.

In the middle of the map, near the line dividing the kingdoms of the demons and nymphs, was the label for a city.

Sanctum Spiritus City!

Sanctum Spiritus City was the core city for all demons and nymphs and was ruled by both races. Legends claim that it was the first city established on the continent.

Then, Tang San found the label for yet another city.

Kali City!

Kali City was the city that was the closest to Wind Wolf Town. The city was one of the seven cities of the Empyrean Dominion. While it was comparatively remote, it was a key location for the demon races.

The continent had fifteen cities, seven each for the demons and nymphs. As for the Sanctum Spiritus City, both sides claimed that it belonged to them. As a result, each side often claimed that they had eight cities.

As for Wind Wolf Town, it wasn't even labeled on the map. The map only showed the fifteen cities within the two empires.

Tang San's heartbeat quickened as he swept his gaze across the map, doing his best to memorize notable locations and cities from the map. His beloved wife had to be somewhere on this map.

Xiao Wu, where are you?

Seeing the visible changes in Tang San's expression, Wang Yanfeng wasn't surprised. He had felt the same when he first entered the big city. He had been much more excited than Tang San. freewe(b)novel.c(o)m

"Kali City is not like Wind Wolf Town. In such a large city, there are demons of almost every level. There are even nymph clans. We are nothing more than vassals, the lowest level of existence in the city. A big city like this doesn't even allow slaves to enter. I will help you get a temporary vassal identity token that you must bring along. If you don't, you risk getting killed anytime."

"Teacher, is the city dangerous?" Tang San had already returned to his senses at this point.

Wang Yanfeng shook his head and said, "Normally, no one would pay attention to us lesser beings, so naturally we can't speak of any danger. But we still need to be as careful as possible. When the time comes, follow me and do exactly what I tell you to do. Remember, don't talk or look around too much. Be discreet and cautious."

"Okay." Tang San nodded.

He was also very interested in the other cities of this world. In this Wind Wolf City, it seemed safe, but there was no chance for him to search for his wife. At the same time, he needed to go to the outside world to look and find a way to enhance himself. He could tell it would be even more difficult for his Mysterious Heaven Technique to break through from the fourth to the fifth order.

Two days later, Wang Yanfeng completed the formalities. Only then did he take Tang San and leave Wind Wolf Town together.

Because Wang Yanfeng was at the fourth order, in the entire Wind Wolf Town, he was the most powerful of the human vassals. When ordinary wolf demons saw him, although they didn't have a favorable expression, they didn't speak ill of him either.

Walking out of Wind Wolf Town, Tang San experienced a strange sensation. It felt peculiar, like fish leaping in the vast ocean and birds soaring in the boundless sky. He took a deep breath, and he finally felt that the air was refreshing.

Wang Yanfeng led him to a small path. Following this path would lead them onto the main road to Kali City, and the city waited for them at the end of that road.

The path wasn't wide, only three or four meters. It wasn't perfectly flat, but it wasn't too rocky either. It was paved with gravel, and it was clear that human slaves had done the work.

The task assigned by the Wind Wolf Lord to Wang Yanfeng this time was to travel to Kali City and deliver a tribute list to the Wind Wolf Overlord.

The wolf demon clan was a large clan even from the perspective of the entire demon race. It wasn't strong enough to have a principal city of its own, but because of the clan's large numbers and decent individual strength, the wolf demon clan was still in the top twenty amongst all demon clans. Although it was just barely in the rankings, there were hundreds upon hundreds of different types of demons. To be able to enter the top twenty was already a substantial achievement.

On the other hand, the Wind Wolf Clan was considered weaker among the lineage of wolf demons. But even so, it was still a lineage belonging to one of the great clans. The Wind Wolf Overlord was also a powerful existence that had access to the core of the wolf demon clan.

As a minor lord of the Wind Wolf Clan, it was necessary to make offerings to the Clan Overlord every year. Of course, to show their submission to the Clan Overlord, the delivery of the tributes was certainly not something that Wang Yanfeng was qualified to do. At the end of the year, they would be personally escorted by the Wind Wolf Lord and the Wind Wolf High Priest to Kali City.

Wang Yanfeng was simply sent to deliver the tribute list to Wind Wolf Overlord for approval. If the Overlord was unsatisfied, it would mean trouble for the Wind Wolf Lord. If the Clan Overlord was satisfied, it was good news.
