Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

"You're not trying to reach the god level, are you?" Gu Li couldn't help but ask.

Tang San smiled and shook his head, "No, I'm far from getting there. It might take five or even ten years."

"But…" Gu Li wanted to say more, but Wu Bingji interrupted him.

"Let's eat."

After breakfast, Tang San returned to his room and silently teleported away, arriving in Lion-Tiger Village.

As he entered the village, he saw the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint waiting for him. Accompanying the Sword Saint was Elder Sky Cat of Lion-Tiger Village.

Big Cat approached him immediately. "Brother Asura, you’re here!"

Tang San smiled and nodded. "Elder, you're here too. Let's hurry, we can fuse the bloodlines of a few more before I leave."

"You shouldn’t help Big Cat for now," Elder Sky Cat suddenly said.

Elder Sky Cat sighed, "Benefactor Asura, I have witnessed all you have done for our Lion-Tiger clan these past days. Whether you have an ulterior motive or not, your kindness has solved a life-and-death problem that has plagued us for thousands of years. You are a great benefactor to our clan. Even if you wanted us to be your servants, it would only be right for us to do so.

"Big Cat has told me about your plans; you are about to journey to the Ancestral Court. The Ancestral Court is teeming with mighty figures, and they bear ill will toward your human team. It’s time when allies are needed most. Big Cat is the strongest in our clan, but after the transformation, he will enter a period of weakness, so how can he assist you? Even if you help him, let it wait until you return. You must take him with you even if you use him as your mount. I will have a few skilled members from our clan accompany you on your journey."

Tang San chuckled and shook his head. "I appreciate your kindness, Elder. I understand your concerns. But this time, our journey to the Ancestral Court will rely more on wits than brute strength. As you said, the Ancestral Court is filled with formidable foes; the number of god-level warriors there is unknown. Even if we had more of your clans' people on our team, would that solve our problems? Against true powerhouses, we would still be helpless.

"For the Lion-Tiger clan, what’s crucial is the merging of bloodlines and rising anew. If the future generations of your clan are born with innate merged bloodlines, then I will consider my mission accomplished. Right now, you need to stay hidden. Don’t worry about me; with my teleportation array, I can escape danger when necessary. I wouldn’t go if I weren’t fully prepared.

"When I return, I will help the rest of your clanspeople. By then, your warriors should have recovered the expended bloodline power. In no more than two or three years, the Lion-Tiger clan will rise."

Listening to his words, Elder Sky Cat's eyes filled with gratitude. Over these days, he had witnessed firsthand what Tang San had done.

He had seen his clansmen completely resolve their bloodline conflicts and gain even more powerful bloodlines. As for the temporary weakness that came with it, that was nothing more than temporary.

What the elder felt was beyond mere joy. He had never imagined that in his lifetime, he would see not the extinction of his kin, but an opportunity for their resurgence.

Thus, for the Lion-Tiger clan, Tang San was now a true benefactor. Bound by a blood pact, he would never harm the clan, so the elder trusted him completely.

The Lion-Tiger Sword Saint couldn't help but say, "Are you sure about that? I should really go with you…"

Tang San responded, "Didn't we agree on this yesterday? You have the strongest physique among your kin. After the bloodline fusion, you should recover the fastest. Instead of coming with me, it's more important to regain your cultivation level before I return. If you do that, you’ll be able to try for the tenth order soon. The true Lion-Tiger bloodline is no ordinary bloodline; you need to take your time to study it and discover its secrets."

The process of bloodline fusion for the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint went smoothly, just as Tang San expected, thanks to his incredibly vigorous bloodline power and physique. He had no need to fear being weakened, much less being in life-threatening danger. He also didn’t need a bloodline power transfusion; thus, Tang San could fully focus on the fusion.

Quickly, a platinum halo began to form around the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint, even more abundant than Tang San had anticipated.

Once the fusion process was complete, the remaining bloodline power of the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint allowed him to stay at the peak of the seventh order. Moreover, there was indeed no evident feeling of weakness.

As the fusion ended, the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint looked at the platinum Lion-Tiger Golden Astral formed in his hands, his eyes suddenly blazing with light as he roared skyward.

All this time, ever since his cultivation reached the ninth order, he had been constantly on edge during his training. He never knew when a sudden bloodline conflict might erupt and cause his body to explode=.

Thus, he had always been extremely cautious during his cultivation, fearful of crossing the line.

In fact, the fact that he had been able to suppress his increasingly powerful bloodline and prevent any issues from happening was testament that he was indeed the greatest genius in the history of the Lion-Tiger clan.

At this moment, feeling that his bloodline power was free from conflict, a thrilling sensation spread throughout his body, and he felt that he could finally give it his all when he trained.

Finally, he had the opportunity to reach the god level.

Suddenly, he opened his arms wide and grabbed Tang San, flinging the comparatively smaller young man into the air.

"Thank you, thank you! Hahaha, I can finally escape my fate!"

A faint smile appeared on Tang San's lips; the better the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint's talent, the happier he himself was.

This meant that his own first-tier bloodline would have a stable source for continuous enhancement in the future.

The Lion-Tiger bloodline power of the Lion-Tiger Sword Saint was much richer than that of his clan members. Absorbing even a little made Tang San feel his platinum bloodline imprint growing stronger.

He had now solved the pressing issues of the Lion-Tiger clan, and with his registration in the nobility records also complete, all preparations for heading to the Ancestral Court were done.

It was finally time to go.

Tang San teleported back to Redemption Academy, but he did not go find Zhang Haoxuan, who was going to accompany them to the Ancestral Court. Rather, he went to Kaly Academy first.

His janitorial duties at Kali Academy had come to an end, and he would not return there for some time. He had taken the janitor job just for Mei Gongzi, and with Mei Gongzi absent, he had no interest in sweeping the yard.

Arriving outside the gates of Kali Academy, where Asura once waited for Mei Gongzi, Tang San began setting up an array with materials he had prepared earlier. This was a very intricate messaging array capable of long-distance communication.

The cost of materials needed for this array was comparable to that of a teleportation array, but Tang San still went through with it.

Before Mei Gongzi went into seclusion, he had made a promise to her that once she emerged, she should wait here for him, and he would definitely appear within three days.

Now that he was heading to the Ancestral Court, he had to leave a contingency in place so that he could be informed immediately if Mei Gongzi appeared.

He spared no expense when it came to his promises to her, whatever the cost might be.

As he had to make sure he wasn’t noticed by the students passing by, he took nearly two hours to finish setting up the communication array.

Only then did he return to the academy town and find his master.

"I'm ready to go at any time. The Lion-Tiger clan has settled in well at Golden Valley, and they're getting along fine with your girls," Zhang Haoxuan said to Tang San.
