Chapter 236: Secretly Learning the Peacock Transformation
Mei Gongzi listened intently as he explained the Mysterious Heaven Technique. Blessed with excellent comprehension and memory from a young age, she quickly grasped its principles through Tang San's explanation. Yet, upon attempting it herself, she found she couldn't harness this technique.
Cultivating using the Mysterious Heaven Technique involved absorbing the power of the heavens and the earth into one's body and converting it into one’s own, gradually increasing it until it achieved a self-perpetuating and self-improving cycle. However, for Mei Gongzi, who possessed the Demonic God Transformation, the natural energy she absorbed automatically converted into bloodline power, leaving no opportunity to channel it otherwise. This was a key reason why humans with the Demonic God Transformation ability could not cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Technique.
"This technique is indeed quite fascinating. Unfortunately, it seems that those who have the Demonic God Transformation are unable to cultivate it. Well, in any case, it's uncertain what the future holds, so be cautious in your cultivation. Do you understand? If you feel ready to break through to the seventh order, you can seek guidance from a teacher at the Redemption Society. If they're unavailable, notify me in advance, and I'll accompany you through the breakthrough. But we'll need to find a quiet place," Mei Gongzi advised Tang San.
"Mm, thank you, Sister Mei, for resolving my doubts today," Tang San said, his face filled with gratitude.
"Let's head back; it's getting late." Mei Gongzi stood up, and Tang San quickly followed suit.
His height had almost caught up to Mei Gongzi's. She glanced at him and saw his clear eyes looking back at her, causing her heartbeat to accelerate slightly.
“We should part ways here. Be careful on your way back, don't wander off, and head straight to the academy, alright?” Mei Gongzi cautioned again.
“Okay, Sister Mei,” Tang San responded.
After leaving the inn, Mei Gongzi went her way, and Tang San watched her figure disappear at the end of the street before he quickened his pace and left in another direction.
What Mei Gongzi didn't know was that Tang San was not only planning to break through soon, but he was feeling a massive urgency. It was...well, it was much like the feeling of desperately needing to urinate. Absorbing Mei Gongzi's bloodline power instantly saturated the energy within his body. He desperately used his spiritual power to suppress it, to prevent it from bursting forth.
And he couldn’t just break through anywhere! Although breaking through to the seventh order wouldn’t cause too much of a disturbance for a generic bloodline, if he centered his breakthrough around the Peacock Demon bloodline, whatever manifestation it produced would almost certainly not be nice and peaceful. He had to find a safe place.
Just now, he had been unable to urge Mei Gongzi to leave, so he could only wait for her to take the initiative. Now that she was gone, he dared not delay any longer, rushing toward the direction of the Kali Mountains. The most suitable place for his breakthrough was, of course, near the pieces of Golden Wood.
Mei Gongzi, on the other hand, was not in a hurry. As she leisurely walked toward Kali Academy, she silently recalled the technique Tang San had described. This technique was indeed rather unique! Moreover, he had shared it with her without any reservations. This seemed to be the mark of a great destiny. His rapid increase in spiritual power might also be related to this technique. In the future, she thought it would be worth observing the effects of his technique more closely. If it really proved to be as excellent as she thought, perhaps she could let her descendants try it as well.
After over a month of growth, the pieces of Golden Wood had fully taken root—now they could be called Golden Saplings. Compared to when they were planted, they had grown by at least five inches, and a distinct vitality was now overflowing from the Spirit Summoning Array.
Although the growth still appeared slow, it was a positive reinforcement cycle. The more vigorous the life energy, the more natural qi the Spirit Summoning Array could attract, thus generating even more life energy. As long as this growth process continued unimpeded, these Golden Saplings would eventually grow into towering trees.
As soon as Tang San settled down, his energy surged out like a storm. A white torrent of energy swept around him, and colorful lights burst forth from within him for a moment.
"Step back!" Zhang Haoxuan hurried to Tang San's side, urging the Crimson Fox girls to quickly move away to avoid being harmed by the energy released during Tang San's breakthrough.
He sat down beside Tang San, his gaze intently fixed on this disciple he hadn't actually taught anything.
This was the first time he was actually witnessing Tang San break through, and he wanted to see what kind of changes would occur during the breakthrough of someone whose cultivation method was so special.
Tang San's face showed signs of pain, and his body trembled continuously, but he remained firmly seated, stable as a mountain.
In terms of mental fortitude, how could a child like Du Bai compare to him?
No matter how restless the energy inside his body, he maintained the steadiest mindset. The vortex of the Mysterious Heaven Technique operated slowly yet steadfastly, gradually guiding the six bloodline imprints.
Then, he gradually released the suppression.
His first task was to break through to the Mysterious Heaven Technique's seventh order, expand the meridians throughout his body, enhance his physical endurance, and utilize some of the life energy from the Golden Saplings to nourish himself. Only then would he proceed with the breakthroughs of the various bloodline imprints he had.
The three most crucial things he had to do in that respect were pushing the Blue Silver Emperor to the seventh order, pushing the Discerning Eye of Heaven to the fifth order, and creating a Peacock Transformation imprint to replace the Leopard Flash—and then stabilizing the Peacock Transformation at the seventh order. As for the Wind Tiger Transformation reaching the seventh order, that was relatively easy. The Chrono Croc Transformation and Golden Roc Transformation were stable at the fifth order, and he could push them to the sixth. Future breakthroughs would follow one by one.
Over the past month, he had secretly advanced the Golden Roc Transformation and Chrono Croc Transformation to the peak of the fifth order thanks to his colleagues’ breakthroughs. The Discerning Eye of Heaven was also at the peak of the fourth order; it was capable of reaching the fifth, but he had consciously chosen not to allow it.
Once that breakthrough occurred, he would inevitably lose control over his spiritual power for a while. The process of enhancing the Discerning Eye of Heaven involved intense collisions and fusions of spiritual power, which he had witnessed with Du Bai. How could he suppress his cultivation level once his spiritual power went out of control? Hence, he waited until today to go through a comprehensive breakthrough.
