Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

As he pondered, Tang San stepped forward. At that moment, his body suddenly shook, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Because just after he took that step, the auspicious clouds above him suddenly disappeared, or rather, they changed color. From pure white, they abruptly turned pitch black.

It was no longer auspicious clouds, and there was a very inauspicious feeling descending upon him.

Tang San himself possessed the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, and he had also cultivated the Heavenly Fox Eye to the Sixth Stage with Brother Du Bai, so he naturally understood what this meant.

This is... Misfortune Descending!

Indeed, the fortune was gone, replaced by misfortune. The Stone of Luck under his feet seemed to have vanished in an instant. All that was left was the misfortune.

Tang San took a deep breath, immediately steadying his body, standing still in his place.

Having previously absorbed a great deal of the Power of Luck inside him, when misfortune descended, this luck immediately began to counter the external misfortune.

It was a very strange sensation, as if everything around him was starting to spin and all was becoming unclear.

Looking upward, after surpassing fifty percent, the climbers on Heavenly Fox Holy Mountain had become very scarce. No wonder it was like this!

Down at the mountain\'s base, Tang San had already noticed this point, and he vaguely understood that it must be related to a special situation at the fifty percent point of Heavenly Fox Holy Mountain. Now it seemed that the first fifty percent was purely the blessing of luck, but the latter half was the real challenge and the true opportunity.

The standoff between luck and misfortune may seem strange and confusing to ordinary bloodliners, but for Tang San, who had the Heavenly Fox Eye, it was different. Enlightenments about luck and misfortune began to rise in his heart, and his recognition of fortune and misfortune was suddenly elevated.

This is great! Brother Du Bai should really cultivate in this place. It would greatly help him master his own abilities as well as truly understand his bloodline.

Thinking this, Tang San slowly lifted his foot and stepped onto the next step. His movements were slow but extremely stable, defending with spiritual power. His body\'s surface was wrapped in the white-gold radiance brought forth by the Lion Tiger Golden Gang, firm as a mountain!

No matter the luck or misfortune that comes at this time, I am impervious to all evils!

He stepped firmly onto the next step and took that step forward.

Suddenly, the surrounding luck changed again, the intense misfortune that was there just disappeared, and everything seemed to clear up. The auspicious clouds gathered once more.

A different world with every step?

Tang San felt a jolt in his heart, realizing that the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox might be even stronger than he imagined.

One step brought misfortune, the next step brought fortune. Such changes would make one feel as if a burden had been lifted. But soon after, this fortune seemed to split apart, and some force was drawing him, compelling him to keep moving forward.

Tang San took a firm step forward.

In an instant, everything around him turned pitch black, so dark that he could not see his own hand; the view ahead was no longer visible. And at that very moment, as if countless terrifying misfortunes were descending, they launched a frenzy of attacks, directly targeting Tang San\'s Sea of Spirit.

Tang San focused inwardly, defending with his mind. At such times, the simplest way to counter such attacks is to unleash the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye and directly change one\'s luck, but he obviously could not do that, as it would reveal him.

The Lion Tiger Golden Gang on Tang San\'s body ignited once more, and the white-gold light suddenly intensified. The dense black mist that hit him was actually fused and devoured by his brute strength, empowered by the Lion Tiger Golden Gang.

Immediately, the white-gold Mark of the Lion Tiger Golden Gang inside Tang San\'s body became shrouded in a layer of murky black airflow.

The Lion Tiger Golden Firmament\'s powerful trait, assimilation! It had even temporarily assimilated misfortune.

But Tang San also felt that these misfortunes must be released as soon as possible, otherwise, they would still subtly affect him over time.

While thinking, the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament around Tang San suddenly became blazingly intense. As it assimilated, it suddenly burst into flames. The flames of the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament displayed a bizarre spectacle, being platinum on the inside, but the outer flames burned black.

If this had been during a battle, the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament released by Tang San at this moment would have affected his opponent not only with its formidable power but also by directly bringing misfortune to the adversary. This was the strength of assimilation. The fact that Tang San rated it as a First-level Bloodline spoke volumes about its formidable potential.

The features of the Lion Tiger Tribe\'s Lion Tiger Golden Firmament had not been fully grasped by them yet, but Tang San was increasingly feeling its ingenious uses. If it could assimilate even Luck, what couldn\'t it do?

"Eh!" A light exclamation rang out, but quickly returned to calm.

While the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament burned on his body, Tang San took another step forward.

"Boom—" The surrounding darkness suddenly exploded as if all the misfortune had been dispelled at that moment.

Luck descended once more, an abundance of the Power of Luck congregated above Tang San\'s head into a golden light rain that poured down, washing away the remnants of misfortune and once again infusing him with the aura of fortune.

However, there was a strange flicker in Tang San\'s eyes at this moment. His Lion Tiger Golden Firmament continued to burn brilliantly, but the descent of the Power of Luck remained completely unaffected and could not be assimilated.

That is to say, the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament could only assimilate the misfortune of the Heavenly Fox Eye, but not the fortune.

This meant that the ability to assimilate seemed only to assimilate powers that bore ill will against oneself. Or was it because the Heavenly Fox Eye was also a powerful First-level Bloodline, it couldn\'t be completely suppressed by the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament.

Both were possibilities! But without a doubt, the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament\'s devouring Power of Misfortune had already allowed Tang San to stand tall here.

Tang San let the rain of fortune soak his body, only moving upward again when the rain began to weaken.

With each step he took, Luck constantly underwent earth-shattering changes, and countless illusions appeared around him.

But no matter what changes and illusions, to Tang San, there was only the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament!

The strong First-level Bloodline combined with the peak Ninth Stage Spiritual Power made every step he took seem so steady. Not fast in speed, but progressively moving forward step by step towards the Heavenly Fox Palace.

Tang San understood that he must have been under scrutiny now. But this was exactly what he wanted.

After passing the Sword Saint Palace yesterday, he had decided already, to follow his teacher\'s advice, to gain as much favor from the imperial palace as possible, which would be beneficial for his upcoming plans.

The Monster Clan and Spirit Clan were too powerful, powerful to the extent that someone with his foundation as a Godking could not possibly confront them before becoming a Godking again. So, to undermine this situation, he first had to assimilate into their midst. He was also ready to join a Monster Clan. The more favor he received, the greater the sway he would naturally have when he joined in the future.

As for which Monster Clan he intended to join? He had naturally chosen long ago.

When he first stepped into Jiali City, when he saw that girl selling milk tea for the first time, everything had already been destined.

She wanted to become the next Peacock Demon King or even the Great Peacock Demon Emperor, and naturally, he wanted to be by her side. Forever!

All that he was doing now, he was preparing for her return.

Step by step, Luck underwent bizarre changes, but it always remained within a certain degree. After the full onslaught of Misfortune Descending, what followed were more changes, a myriad of transformations. But despite the myriad changes, Tang San remained consistent. Solid as a rock, steady as Mount Tai.

He devoured misfortune as it came, and accepted fortune as it arrived.
