Chapter 117: Chapter 116: Change, Harvest
That golden hand which could mold and shape the energy of the Heavenly Fox Transformation played an extremely crucial role in the Sea of Spirit; it showed the Heavenly Fox Transformation who was boss. That was, of course, the touch of divine consciousness Tang San brought from his previous life.
The use of divine consciousness is profound and mysterious, but Tang San had always been reluctant to use it, fearing that this bit of divine consciousness might be consumed. Once that happened, he would lose his last connection to the original world. It would also mean losing his most crucial self-protective strength.
But it was different within the Sea of Spirit. No matter how high the rank of the Heavenly Fox Eye, no matter if the Heavenly Fox Bloodline was a First level Bloodline, it couldn\'t compare to the God King tier! Even just a hint of divine consciousness, it was still of the God King tier. The Heavenly Fox Transformation was still far from reaching the level of the God King tier.
If the Heavenly Fox Eye was considered the spokesperson of this plane, then Tang San\'s divine consciousness was once the ruler of the Divine Realm, the master of a whole universe.
The higher the hierarchy of a world, the more obvious the suppressive effect of the hierarchy. In the face of that bit of divine consciousness at the God King level, the Heavenly Fox Eye couldn\'t even produce a thought to resist.
The reason Tang San was not at all anxious about the Heavenly Fox Eye causing trouble within his Sea of Spirit was precisely because he had divine consciousness as his trump card.
The Heavenly Fox Eye was indeed powerful, devouring his spiritual power in preparation to assimilate it, but before it could start the assimilation, it was pinched out by the divine consciousness. It must be said, the Heavenly Fox Eye was indeed strong; after it filtered his spiritual power, it directly liquefied it.
Transitioning from vapor to liquid is the most critical metamorphosis for spiritual power. The completion of liquification signifies that Tang San\'s spiritual state has completely elevated to another realm. Normally, this would require his cultivation base to reach at least the Seventh Stage and his spiritual power also to be correspondingly above the Seventh Stage. Now, by a fortuitous coincidence and without enduring any hardships, he had broken through. Coupled with being recognized by this plane and the reduced oppressive force acting on him, Tang San could now basically determine that he shouldn\'t encounter any major bottlenecks at least before he reached the Ninth Stage. His biggest future problem will likely arise when he becomes a God. By then, he may be discovered by this plane once again, and experience suppression again.
But compared to his current strength, that still seems like a distant concern, and he is not in a rush.
From afar, Zhang Haoxuan had already noticed the situation here. His gaze was sharp, spotting Tang San cultivating under the tree at a glance with several people resting in the tree as well, and nothing dangerous seemed to be happening.
What\'s going on? Nothing dangerous? But the intense disturbance of the Origin Energy just now definitely came from this direction! Could it be that someone among them has significantly evolved their strength?
He didn\'t look towards Tang San first but instead focused on Wu Bingji. Recently, Wu Bingji\'s rate of progress has accelerated significantly. However, he had just broken through to the Sixth Stage not long ago, so it would be impossible for him to attempt to reach the Seventh Stage in a short time. After all, the threshold from the Sixth Stage to the Seventh Stage is quite significant.
If it wasn\'t Wu Bingji, then which one of them was it?
His spiritual power swept across everyone without noticing anything inappropriate; the auras of all these youngsters were normal.
This left Zhang Haoxuan somewhat puzzled. After observing for a while longer, he finally left.
What he did not know was that his arrival was completely within Tang San\'s perception.
```
Before, Tang San would not have been able to sense Zhang Haoxuan\'s arrival due to the gap in their cultivation bases, unless he used his divine consciousness. But now things were different; his spiritual power had liquefied, greatly enhancing his perceptual abilities. Although Zhang Haoxuan was a Ninth Stage power, in terms of spiritual power alone, he was only at the same state as Tang San, just with a much larger overall amount.
Naturally, Tang San was adept at concealing his own aura, and Zhang Haoxuan could not discern any changes in him.
When Zhang Haoxuan left, Tang San completely relaxed. Because he had to keep watch, he didn\'t let himself enter a meditative state. He just quietly felt the gains from this latest improvement.
The harvest this night had been huge. He was now extremely grateful for his decision to join Redemption Academy. In just a few days since his arrival, he had gained more than he had in many years of cultivation. Such is the advantage of resources! The help from these companions with top-level bloodlines was truly immense.
Yes, he must help them improve. Helping them was helping himself.
Peak of Fifth Stage now. Stabilizing the state, not long after, he should consider aiming for the Sixth Stage. And when attempting to break through to the Sixth Stage, he would probably start with the Wind Wolf Transformation. After all, that was his overt power.
Early in the morning, Cheng Zicheng stretched her body on the tree branch, feeling refreshed after a night\'s rest, though her arms were still sore from practicing the Golden Wing Cloak Slash the day before.
She looked down instinctively and caught sight of Tang San sitting under the tree. She blinked in slight surprise. Tang San seemed to have undergone some changes. He looked more pleasing to the eyes, no longer as thin, as if his whole body had become more lustrous and full. Overnight, his features seemed to have opened up quite a bit, shifting from plain to somewhat handsome.
By Tang San\'s side sat Du Bai, who was also practicing cultivation in silent meditation just like Tang San.
It was now broad daylight, with the morning sun gradually rising in the distance. Wu Bingji and Gu Li also woke up from their cultivation one after another.
Their stay the previous day and a day\'s cultivation had made them all feel they had made certain progress. Gu Li was the most excited, wishing he could just stay here and continue to practice his Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer technique.
Under the tree, Tang San felt the three waking up and opened his eyes as well.
He touched Du Bai next to him and whispered, "How do you feel?"
Du Bai opened his eyes, at first a bit bewildered, but quickly recovered and thoughtfully said, "I feel something. My eyes seem warm, quite comfortable. I don\'t notice anything else significant yet."
"It seems you don\'t have any obvious rejection, at least not for now. Just keep cultivating. This method of cultivation requires time to accumulate. Only with time will you reap rewards."
This morning, before the others woke up, Du Bai had climbed down from the tree. He had been thinking about the guidance Tang San had promised him.
Taking advantage of the morning\'s rising purple qi, Tang San taught him the method to cultivate the Purple Demon Eyes, and Du Bai followed him in practice.
Because Tang San\'s spiritual power had seen a big increase, the Purple Demon Eyes naturally improved as well, and the effect of today\'s practice was particularly good. To his surprise, Du Bai didn\'t excel in other areas, but he seemed to be a natural at cultivating the Purple Demon Eyes. Today was only his first practice, and Tang San could already feel a hint of purple qi entering Du Bai\'s eyes, a change that had not occurred before when he tried it with the Wang Family Brothers and Ling Muxue.
