Chapter 194: Sweeper Tang Returns
Early in the morning, before dawn had even broken, Tang San stepped out of his room. Alongside Du Bai, he went to the hillside outside the academy to cultivate the Purple Demon Eyes.
"Little Tang, I feel like my spiritual power has improved again. The Purple Demon Eyes technique you taught me is really great!" said Du Bai, absorbing the purple aura that had just entered his eyes.
Tang San smiled and nodded, "That's because your Celestial Fox Vision naturally amplifies your sea of consciousness a lot. If you find the right way to cultivate spiritual power, these two things will actually enhance each other. I think when you fully turn your spiritual power liquid, that'll be the time your Celestial Fox Vision advances to the next stage. Although your bloodline concentration is a bit lacking, you can still push your cultivation forward with spiritual power. As long as you continue to cultivate your spiritual power, you should be able to reach the sixth order without too many problems."
"What about the seventh order?" Du Bai quickly asked.
Tang San replied, "That's hard to say. We'll have to see after you reach the sixth order. The seventh order is different because it allows you to become a real high-level being. For someone with a top-tier bloodline like yours, it’s probably going to be even more difficult. To ascend to the seventh order, you might need a stronger bloodline concentration, or maybe you’ll have to push your spiritual power to a level far beyond your current cultivation."
Tang San's previous experiences had deepened his understanding of the Demonic God Transformation. From Mei Gongzi's transformations, he had seen that once bloodline power reached the seventh order, a qualitative change occurred. The higher the bloodline tier, the more pronounced this transformation became.
Just like the eighth-order Golden Lion-Dog, who had been able to slay numerous Winged Tigers and even severely wound a ninth-order Winged Tiger King. In his perfect state and in one-on-one combat, he even had the potential to kill the Winged Tiger King.
Mei Gongzi had an even higher bloodline tier, and she had used her seventh order power to instantly annihilate four eighth-order Winged Tigers. This undoubtedly was the result of her bloodline undergoing some kind of transformation. The seventh order was clearly a challenging threshold to overcome.
The higher the bloodline's tier, the more challenging it was to make a breakthrough, but the stronger the power gained afterwards.
In this respect, Wu Bingji had already reached the seventh order with his Ice Nymph Transformation, yet his bloodline’s strength was limited—it barely qualified as a third-tier bloodline.[1] Gu Li's Chrono Croc Transformation was second tier, and Cheng Zicheng's Golden Roc Transformation was close to the second tier. The Golden Winged Roc bloodline, in a sense, was also a golden bloodline, since the roc clan had no branches. However, Cheng Zicheng's bloodline power had yet to exhibit any golden traits; it was uncertain if they would manifest after reaching the seventh order.
Among the five, Du Bai undoubtedly faced the toughest challenge in advancing. His Celestial Fox Transformation belonged to the highest tier of bloodlines, even surpassing Mei Gongzi's Peacock Transformation to an extent. Moreover, his own bloodline concentration was not high, making the ascent to the seventh order exceedingly difficult. Without Tang San, he likely couldn't have even overcome the barrier to the fourth order.
"This is so tough!" Du Bai said with a face full of reluctance.
Tang San gave a slight smile and said, "I'm going back to Kali Academy to continue being Sweeper Tang."
Du Bai's mouth twitched. "Why would you do that? Isn't that just wasting time that could be spent on cultivation? Do you really care about the little money you get from sweeping at Kali Academy?"
Tang San laughed. "You don't understand. It's not about the sweeping. Hurry up, give me a boost of fortune; I'm leaving."
Du Bai, resigned and skillfully activated his Celestial Fox Vision, bestowing Tang San with a full-force fortune enhancement.
With a white halo gradually integrating into his body, Tang San waved at him, headed down the mountain, and made his way to Kali Academy.
His leave of absence was perfectly timed. Upon arriving at the academy, he collected brooms and other cleaning tools, feeling the rich spiritual energy of Kali Academy. Suddenly, Tang San felt a twinge of nervousness in his heart.
Mei Gongzi now knew that he was Zhang Haoxuan's disciple and also a member of the Redemption Society. Would she confront him if they met again?
Despite his nervousness, there was also a sense of anticipation. He finally had a reason to try and get closer to her. Even just exchanging a few more words would be great!
The image of Mei Gongzi, valiant and elegant as she held her peacock plume, resonated in his mind, warming Tang San's heart.
He continued to sweep the square in front of the main teaching building. As usual, while sweeping, he silently absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, circulating the energy of his Mysterious Heaven Technique to nurture his body and divine consciousness.
Unbeknownst to him, in the distance, behind a window of the main teaching building, stood a figure, her beautiful eyes intently watching Sweeper Tang at work.
1. Yes, it seems that Wu Bingji broke through off-screen. We checked future chapters and he really is at the seventh order. ☜
