Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

The awakening of the Peacock Valor was challenging, but when a member of the Peacock Demon Clan awakened their Peacock Valor, they became incredibly powerful. Even among the first-tier bloodlines, they were consistently among the foremost.

The former Demon Emperor of the Peacock Demon Clan once ranked fifth among all demon emperors. This gave an idea of the true strength of the Peacock Demon Clan's bloodline power.

Among the demon and nymph clans, as many as twelve reached the level of Demon Emperor, the twelfth order. They all stood at the pinnacle of the twelfth order.

These twelve Demon Emperors and Nymph Emperors jointly ruled the Ancestral Court, governing the entire Daemon Continent through it.

Among the twelve rulers in the Ancestral Court, seven were from the demon clans, and five were from the nymph clans. And the ranking on which the Peacock Demon Emperor was fifth did not just include the demons, but all twelve of the rulers.

Mei Gongzi, only thirteen years old, had awakened the Peacock Valor. What did this mean? Even if she possessed a human bloodline, it wasn't important! Among the previous generation of the Peacock Demon Clan, only the current Peacock Great Demon King had awakened the Peacock Valor. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been assigned to such a remote place as Kali City. It was unknown what issue prevented the Peacock Great Demon King from stepping into the twelfth order. Otherwise, once he became a Demon Emperor, the status of the Peacock Demon Clan would not be what it was now.

The biggest problem for the Peacock Demon Clan was the difficulty in awakening the Peacock Valor. But once awakened, they became supreme powerhouses.

The fact that the Peacock Great Demon King of the eleventh order could become the lord of a major city instead of a demon or nymph emperor fully confirmed this statement. It was even said that the eleventh-order Peacock Great Demon King could contend with some of the emperors.

Among the next generation of the Peacock Demon Clan, Wang Yan was known to have the potential to awaken the Peacock Valor. This was why Song Junhou had chosen to yield when facing Wang Yan.

As the eldest legitimate son of the Peacock Great Demon King, Wang Yan had undoubtedly received the lion's share of the family's resources. Nearly every natural treasure had been used on him, and even the blood of clan members had been utilized to improve his bloodline, enhancing its strength. Yet, up to this point, Wang Yan had not even fully awakened his Golden Crown, much less the Peacock Valor.

Who could have imagined that Mei Gongzi, a human hybrid, someone not of pure blood, had already awakened the Peacock Valor? How was that possible?

But Mei Gongzi had proven with her strength that it was true. She was the only Golden Crown Successor in the Peacock Demon Clan.

Song Junhou had always coveted her, having heard that she might become one of the candidates to become the next king, which was why he had always been especially friendly to her. But when push came to shove, he opted for the more likely to succeed, Wang Yan. Yet, as fate would have it, this has become somewhat awkward….

Moreover, Mei Gongzi eventually killed a formidable enemy and rescued everyone. Now they all fully understood why, in the presence of Wang Yan and others, Mei Gongzi was perfectly safe even as she was alone in the middle of the forest.

Who among her kin would dare to lay a hand on the Golden Crown Successor? That would be absolute suicide.

Once a demon clan member with an awakened Golden Crown died, the crown transformed into a guidance portal, instantly bringing over the Peacock Great Demon King. This was a natural ability of the Peacock Demon Clan. Whoever killed Mei Gongzi would have to face the wrath of the Peacock Great Demon King, a being comparable to a Demon Emperor.

Not to mention Mei Gongzi could annihilate four eighth-order Winged Tigers in one move!

Thus, even their way of addressing her changed. Mei Gongzi became Sister Mei.

"Captain, what should we do?" the Bear Demon asked Song Junhou.

Song Junhou’s mouth twitched. "Since Sister Mei has asked us to take the spoils and go, let's do it. Also, don't call me captain anymore. With Sister Mei here, I'm not qualified. From now on, she is our team's captain."

"Uh-huh." The other team members nodded in agreement. Strength was paramount in their world, and the fact of the matter was that she was the strongest, human hybrid or otherwise.

Redemption Society.

After dinner, Tang San returned to his room to rest.

The night outside was beautiful, with a bright moon and sparse stars. He had intended to return to the Redemption Society at night to visit his cultivation sanctuary, but he then decided to stay home and work to stabilize his cultivation level.

The bloodline energy absorbed from the ninth-order Winged Tiger King was somewhat restless.

The bloodline power of demonic beasts was far less pure than that of demons, and the ninth-order Winged Tiger King was already dead at that time, causing a significant decline in its bloodline power. Otherwise, Tang San, who was not even at the seventh order, could not have absorbed it.

After being filtered through the vortex of the Mysterious Heaven Technique, only the purest part of the bloodline power was retained.

He continued to purify this external energy by silently operating his energy vortex.

The ninth order was basically touching the god level. Although the Winged Tiger was a demonic beast, this did not change the fact that he was on a higher level in terms of both quantity and quality of energy. Mobilizing this higher-level energy with the Mysterious Heaven Technique was somewhat tricky. Unfortunately, there was nothing Tang San could do; his still-developing body did not allow him to fully assimilate the energy.

After circulating his energy for nine complete cycles, his internal state gradually stabilized. The Wind Tiger bloodline imprint flickered with a cyan light, indicating that it had reached the pinnacle of the sixth order and it was ready to enter the seventh at any moment. But until Tang San's cultivation of the Mysterious Heaven Technique broke through to the seventh order, it could not break this limit.

Tang San's control over the wind element also grew more solid. He gradually compressed the remaining part of the Winged Tiger King's bloodline power, allowing it to gravitate around the Wind Tiger imprint.

In his mind, Tang San recalled the immense power Mei Gongzi had displayed earlier. Spatial folding, spatial slicing, spatial constriction. She had almost mastered some of the most fundamental abilities of spatial mysteries. Although she had yet to reached the highest levels and was still a ways to go from the true essence of spatial mysteries, she was only thirteen years old! Compared to her previous life, she seemed even more talented in this life.

Such bloodline power was strong, but Tang San did not intend to acquire it. Given his age and physical condition, it was difficult enough for him to withstand the breakthrough to the seventh order. He already possessed the Celestial Fox Vision, a first-tier bloodline power; integrating another first-tier one could be too much for his body to handle. This was something to consider for the future.

For him, continuously enhancing the benefits of the Discerning Eye of Heaven was crucial. The characteristics of the Celestial Fox Vision could better assist him, and most importantly, it was constantly refining his spiritual power.

Right now, his spiritual power was comparable to that of Zhang Haoxuan. The stronger the spiritual power, the more it helped nurture his divine consciousness, which was fundamental. Once his divine consciousness recovered to a certain extent, some abilities from his previous life could be regained.

That day, when facing the lethal threat from Mei Gongzi, he felt that his divine consciousness had become much more stable. Even using his divine consciousness once would not cause it to completely dissipate.

This discovery brought Tang San immense joy, as it meant that his divine consciousness was on the way to recovery. Although it was slow, as long as the trend was positive, it was an excellent sign.

Thus, he had to his state, enhance his physical strength, and continue elevating his spiritual power. He aimed to enter the seventh order as soon as he could. The seventh order was a watershed; once he reached that level, the abilities he could use would also become more substantial.

Zhang Haoxuan had left the Academy Town to sell the loot in another city. Before departing, he told Tang San that when he returned, he would allocate most of his resources to Tang San's cultivation. By then, they could go to the best auction in Kali City to find suitable items for him.

Of course, this was because Zhang Haoxuan didn't know that the Kali Academy store had already opened its doors to Tang San...
