Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Tang San's vines suddenly shot out from his side, dozens of tendrils heading straight for his opponent to coil around it. At the same time, four vines that were propping up the ground around his body suddenly exerted force, propelling his body to leap up and rush into the air.

The Diamond Elf King roared, "Shake!"

With a smash of his shield to the ground, a surging yellow glow burst forth, deflecting all the oncoming vines and leaving no chance for them to entangle. Meanwhile, he looked up at Tang San soaring into the sky. He punched through the air and a mass of yellow light, like a cannonball, chased after Tang San's body.

Tang San skillfully did a flip in the air, avoiding a direct confrontation. He rapidly twirled several vines above his head, managing to boost himself further into the air to dodge the punch's blast. Simultaneously, hundreds of Bluesilver Emperor vines descended from the sky, heading straight for the area below.

The vines formed a cage, trapping the Diamond Elf King within.

The Demon King hoisted his heavy shield and fiercely struck upward. The shield erupted with dazzling light and shadow, instantly expanding the cage, continuously enlarging it. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tang San swiftly landed. The vines skimmed along the ground, once again heading for his opponent. Meanwhile, he too leaped up, the vines standing erect and converging around him, transforming his body into the center of a giant shuttle that shot straight toward the Diamond Elf King, the Bluesilver Overlord Spear!

The Bluesilver Cage was being forced open, but the vines on the ground had already started to entangle once more.

Tang San's attack didn't feel very strong to the Diamond Elf King, but this method of using softness to overcome hardness made the fight particularly uncomfortable for it. Plus, it had already said, as long as Tang San could hold on for more than three minutes, he would pass the test. Time was ticking away, so the Demon King was beginning to feel agitated.

The yellow light surged in an instant, accompanied by a ferocious roar from the King. The fluctuation of divine consciousness on its body suddenly intensified. The giant shield swelled against the wind, expanding from its already huge size to become a towering super shield reaching ten meters high. On the surface of the shield, a piercing yellow light suddenly burst forth, like a giant wall bearing down on Tang San.

Was this a powerful move?

A faint smile appeared on Tang San's face. He raised his left hand, and in the palm, a Teleportation Array Disk appeared. In the next instant, he vanished into thin air.

The wall-like burst of light harshly swept over the spot where he had been, but at that moment, Tang San, still in the form of the Bluesilver Overlord Spear, had thrust at the back of the Diamond Elf King.

The moment Tang San disappeared, the King realized something was amiss and didn't turn back, its back muscles suddenly contracting. Its entire body seemed to freeze into a statue, its whole body bursting with intense golden light.

One after another, the tendrils retracted from Tang San's body, and he struck a palm on the King's back.

The Bluesilver Emperor swiftly entwined itself around, tightly binding the Demon King from behind.

The defensive power of the Diamond Elf King was unquestionable. It quickly concentrated its bloodline power in an attempt to break free from the vine fortress. It was confident that against an opponent not at the Demon King level, even if it stood there and took the hits, its defense should not be breached.

However, just as it was bracing itself, suddenly a suction force seemed to emanate from its back, and spikes began to pierce into its skin. Although they didn't break through its skin's defense, the suction force coming from its limbs and bones caused its bloodline power to falter momentarily, unable to burst through the vines right away.

"Roar!" The Diamond Elf King roared in anger, bellowing out once more, driving its bloodline with divine consciousness. An even more potent burst of bloodline power erupted in an instant, the dazzling golden light expanding rapidly from its body.

"Boom—" The Bluesilver Emperor vines were instantly shattered, and Tang San's body blew away, flying directly beyond the mountaintop range.

"Senior, you are truly powerful. I'll come to seek advice again next time," the fading voice of Tang San transmitted.

The Diamond Elf King gasped slightly before turning back, only to see the rapidly descending figure.

"Hey, wait up! Don't leave just yet," the Diamond Elf King called out in a hurry, but Tang San was extremely fast and had already vanished without a trace.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The Diamond Elf King stood there dumbfounded, scratching his head. Did he go a bit too far just now? It was only a test, yet at the end, he had gone all out, so sending the other party flying off wasn't something worth boasting about. On the contrary, that guy's application of his mutated bloodline power was surprisingly good. Right, and that annoying Teleportation Array Disk—this thing was really bothersome, especially for someone like him who wasn't adept at speed. Oh well, what's done is done.

Tang San swiftly left the range of the Golden Essence Sacred Mountain with a faint smile on his face, things going smoother than he had imagined. The effect was pretty good. The Diamond Elf King's bloodline power was extremely rich, solid, and stable. It was definitely among the stronger presences within the first level Bloodline Spirit Kings. There were certainly more powerful beings than it among the Monster race's Demon King Level powerhouses, but there was probably only a handful who could break through its defense. If he truly wanted to defeat it, he'd likely need to resort to his Golden Body Variation, otherwise it would be hard to penetrate the defense.

That giant shield was also a fine item, presumably crafted from Diamond Elf refinement. It had to be said, the Spirit Monster race seemed to be wealthier than the Monster race!

Now that his objective was achieved, of course, he had to make a quick getaway—especially if the Diamond Elf King realized something was amiss, that would not be good.

A bright yellow Bloodline Brand had already converged within his body, stored in his Dantian. He would absorb it once he got home. Now that he had the Teleportation Array, future trips to the Ancestral Court would be much easier. The Yin-Yang dual property could wait—first he'd stabilize the Bluesilver Emperor and then talk about elevating to the first level bloodline through fusion with the Diamond Elf.

Having stolen the Diamond Elf bloodline, Tang San quickly returned to the White Tiger Grand Hotel.

"Let's go, we return now." Without lingering, Tang San immediately activated the second level Teleportation Array with Pretty Girl.

Compared to the temporary magic array used to escape the Ancestral Court last time, this one was much, much more refined. The glow of the Teleportation Array was limited to the room, and in the next instant, they vanished into thin air.

Just a minute after their departure, the White Tiger Great Demon Emperor appeared in the teleportation room, sensing the residual spatial fluctuations and considering the state of the array, showing a contemplative expression.

This Teleportation Array had been built under his watchful eyes, and precisely because of that, his feeling toward the array was very clear. Although he wasn't as knowledgeable as Tang San in this area, being an Emperor, he could make extremely accurate judgments about even the slightest energy changes. The White Tiger Great Demon Emperor knew that this Teleportation Array was quite miraculous, but to achieve ultra-long-distance teleportation required not just sufficient Cultivation base but also the ability to activate the Formation Eye—a likely connection to a divine tool with spatial attributes.

However, he didn't dwell on it much. In his view, the divine tool with spatial attributes naturally should be the Heavenly Mechanism Feather in the hands of his granddaughter. That was the Tribal Artifact of the Peacock Demon Clan. Little did he know, the Heavenly Mechanism Feather had been quivering recently, as someone was preparing to refine it.

The light flickered, and within a cave on the outskirts of Black Dragon City, Tang San and Pretty Girl quietly materialized.

Looking at the familiar scenery inside the cave, Pretty Girl's beautiful eyes shone with excitement—she had been successful. Without a doubt, they had been successful, having teleported such a long distance to Black Dragon City in just one move. With just one more teleportation, they should be able to return to the Golden Valley.

Both of them meditated on the spot, replenishing their drained Spiritual Power and divine consciousness. An hour later, Tang San released the Time-space marker, activating the core of the super Teleportation Array, and in the next moment, they initiated a second teleportation.
