Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

Zhang Haoxuan looked at Du Bai. "You're right. Since it can't be hidden, let's start with confinement. I'll personally bring you your meals later."

"Uh..." Previously in high spirits, Du Bai suddenly felt choked. "No, Mayor, please let me off. I can’t stay inside for too long, I’ll go crazy!"

Zhang Haoxuan said irritably, "At least stay confined until you stop glowing. I'm off to rest now, Tang San. You keep an eye on him. Don't go to Kali Academy for the next few days; just watch him."

With that, the mayor turned and left.

Du Bai looked pitifully at Tang San, who spread his hands and said, "This is my master's order. I can't disobey it. Also, you really do need time to get used to being at the fifth order."

"Oh." Du Bai lowered his head, feeling a bit wronged. He looked at his skin, which faintly glowed, not feeling as excited for the moment.

"How does it feel? Is there any difference from before?" Tang San asked curiously. For now, he wouldn't absorb Du Bai's bloodline power to aid his own advancement, at least not until Du Bai's fifth-order cultivation stabilized.

"It feels like I'm completely different." Du Bai looked up at him again. "I can't say what is different, but it feels different."

Tang San nodded, "You've grown. You look a bit older, your vitality is much stronger than before, and your spiritual power is so concentrated I can almost touch it. I think your spiritual cultivation is around the peak of the seventh order right now. Think about it: you were around the beginning of the seventh order, and after this breakthrough, you’re nearly an entire order higher."

His spiritual power was naturally much stronger, and having experienced Du Bai's entire breakthrough process, he understands Du Bai even better than Du Bai himself.

"During your breakthrough, your bloodline was going through a qualitative transformation, and your bloodline power was converted into spiritual power. That spiritual power first clashed with the spiritual power in your sea of consciousness, then they started to merge. In the end, they fused into one. During this process, it seems that your Celestial Fox bloodline also went through some changes and actually purified itself. It's as if your bloodline power was refined by your sea of consciousness. So basically you really went through a complete transformation, in both body and spirit. As expected of the Celestial Fox bloodline, it’s truly worthy of being a top-tier bloodline. At least until the seventh order, your cultivation speed probably won't slow down."

"Hahaha, that's great! So I also have the potential to reach the seventh order!" Du Bai found his excitement again.

Tang San said, "Don't get too excited just yet. Did you know that a phantom of the Celestial Fox appeared above your head while you were transforming?"

"I didn't know!" Du Bai shook his head. He had been in a complete daze at that time, so he had no idea what his metamorphosis looked like from the outside.

Tang San said, "The Celestial Fox has nine tails, right? Well, during the breakthrough, that Celestial Fox projection grew a second tail. So I guess you can now be called a Two-Tailed Celestial Fox. I think that with each future advancement, you’ll probably gain another tail, so if you get to the twelfth order, you’ll have nine tails. In other words… I actually suspect that your breakthroughs up to the fourth order were just a kind of preparation, and starting from this fifth-order breakthrough, you are really on the correct path of advancement. That means each breakthrough will be more and more difficult, but it also means every breakthrough will transform you completely, so you don’t need to wait until the seventh order like ordinary bloodlines."

"Is that so?" Du Bai stared at Tang San, feeling that everything he said made quite a bit of sense.

Tang San's analyses were based on his three lifetimes of experience. Even strong figures like Zhang Haoxuan and Si Ru couldn't provide a more precise analysis than him.

"What should I do then?" Du Bai asked in surprise.

Tang San replied, "Well, for one, keep cultivating your spiritual power properly. Also, use the Celestial Fox Vision as often as you can, so your bloodline and spiritual power can fuse better. That way, you can use your spiritual power to push your bloodline power farther and farther. Once your spiritual power reaches the peak of the eighth order, maybe even the ninth order, you should be able to break through to the sixth order. As for what comes after, well, let’s talk about that when you reach the sixth order."

"Uh-huh. Okay." Du Bai nodded repeatedly.

Tang San said, "You can try the Celestial Fox Vision now. See what's different from before."

"Okay!" Du Bai's spirit was lifted, and as he took a deep breath, white light surged all over his body. Concentrating, he activated his bloodline power, and the white light swirling around him converged above his head, reforming the phantom of the Celestial Fox. This time, it didn’t have the nine ethereal tails, but only the two distinct tails that Du Bai had right now.

The Celestial Fox's deep blue eyes swept over, looking directly toward Tang San.

Tang San immediately felt as though his body had become transparent. Under the gaze of the Celestial Fox, he had nowhere to hide.

"AH—!!" At that moment, Du Bai suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. The Celestial Fox manifestation above his head disappeared as well.

Tang San was startled and quickly dashed to his side. "What happened?"

Du Bai was rolling on the ground with his hands covering his eyes, clearly in tremendous pain. Tang San quickly pulled his hands away to look closer and saw his eyes were full of bloody veins and tears were streaming out.

The gentle energy of the Mysterious Heaven Technique flowed into Du Bai. With Tang San's continuous support, Du Bai's pain gradually subsided, but his eyes remained red and swollen, and he was now afraid to open them.

What happened? Could this be a side effect of using the Celestial Fox Vision?

"Tang, Tang San. You, you, you..."

"What's wrong?" Tang San asked, puzzled.

"You blinded my Celestial Fox Vision!" Du Bai's voice trembled.

Tang San was shocked. "What did you see?"

"Golden light, golden light that pierces the heavens and the earth. That was you… and you were shining with golden light. Incredible golden aura."

A flash of light sparked in Tang San's eyes. "You saw a golden me?"

Du Bai's emotions gradually stabilized, and after a few moments, he nodded. "A golden you. Piercing the heavens and the earth. Just one glance, and I couldn't bear it. My eyes hurt so much!"

Did he see my past life? No, that's not right. The Celestial Fox Vision is an eye of destiny, but that doesn’t mean it can see the past or the future directly. What he saw must have been the destiny from my past life as a God King. This implies that the destiny of my past life exceeds what he can withstand. That must be what happened. The fifth-order Celestial Fox Vision can see others' destinies. He probably was able to do that anyway but to a far lesser extent.

Tang San helped Du Bai sit up. "Senior brother Du Bai, stabilize yourself first. Use your spiritual power to ease the pain in your eyes, and practice the Purple Demon Eyes."

Du Bai's chest heaved slightly, his breathing a bit rapid, and he didn't speak again.

He just waved his hand, and Tang San quickly grabbed it.

"Tang-Tang San, did I see something I shouldn't have?" Du Bai said in a low voice.

"No, what does that even mean? What you saw must be destiny. Perhaps my destiny is too great for your Celestial Fox Vision to handle, and you were just shocked. Once you've recovered, you can start by trying to look into the destinies of our classmates."

After a moment of silence, Du Bai said, "But then… why is your destiny so overbearing? It's terrifying, you know? A golden light that pierces the heavens and the earth, as if it could illuminate the entire world."

Tang San smiled wryly. "You are the one with the Celestial Fox Vision, and even you don't know what's going on. How should I know? But either way, it's best if you don't tell others about this. I don't want to be treated like a test subject!"
