Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 59: The Bloodline of the Wind Wolf King

Feng Xiong’s claws dug deeply into the ground as the successive wind blades struck him in the exact same spot. His coat of fur was finally cut open, and he was struggling desperately. On the second strike, he almost threw Tang San off. However, the powerful blows on the nape of his neck were too much to bear.

When the tenth wind blade struck, the muscles at the back of his head were severed, causing his majestic stature to crumble.

When the fifteenth wind blade fell, his spine was completely severed.

Tang San's eyes shimmered as he dispelled the last three wind blades. At this moment, Feng Xiong was on the brink of death, hanging on to his last breath. He couldn't let the wolf’s head be severed, as that would affect the devouring of his bloodline.

From start to finish, the battle had lasted only ten breaths. It looked simple, but Tang San had exhausted all his strength.

He had used all four of his bloodline imprint abilities, along with the unique techniques of the Tang Sect.

The fight was incredibly short, and this was due to Feng Xiong's response.

Tang San could have stayed hidden in the shadows while releasing the wind blades, but he chose to appear in front of Feng Xiong purposely. Shock and surprise played a key role in this fight.

He was just a nine-year-old human child, a seemingly insignificant creature. Humans were not usually regarded highly by any demon, and one so young would be all the more underestimated. His small stature was completely disproportionate compared to Feng Xiong’s massive height, which naturally led Feng Xiong to underestimate him.

When Feng Xiong had been expelled, Tang San had been nearby, observing the wolf demon’s condition through the Discerning Eye. Naturally, he chose the most opportune moment to strike.

Feng Xiong's first instinct had been to bolt away, but he had never imagined that such an insignificant-looking opponent would be so formidable.

Tang San unleashed his full might without reservation, leveraging his peak fourth-order strength, the battle experience of a once-God King, psychological tactics, and the devouring ability of the Mysterious Heaven Technique. The fact that he could swiftly subdue someone like Feng Xiong, injured and weakened though he was, was only due to these multiple factors.

With the Mysterious Heaven Technique’s power fully activated, he devoured the bloodline power within Feng Xiong and the last bit of the wolf demon’s life force.

The light in Feng Xiong's eyes gradually dimmed, and his body shriveled. In contrast, Tang San felt a flood-like surge of bloodline power rushing into his body.

Suddenly, his aura surged dramatically, and a series of crackling sounds emanated from his bones.

Breakthrough!

Indeed, by devouring Feng Xiong's bloodline power, he had broken through the peak of the fourth order and entered the fifth order!

Not only had the Mysterious Heaven Technique broken through to the next order, but the Wind Blade bloodline imprint within him was also transforming, changing from its original light green to a darker shade, and its glow was intensifying more and more.

The bloodline of this Feng Xiong is not the same as that of ordinary Wind Wolves! Tang San made this judgment instantly.

Could it be because it is a Lord?

Although it was his first time devouring the bloodline power of a fifth-order Wind Wolf, based on his experience of consuming third and fourth-order Wind Wolves, the fifth-order should be much stronger, but not to such a tremendous degree.

Simply put, the bloodline power of ordinary Wind Wolves contained impurities, and the energy vortex of the Mysterious Heaven Technique would transform and filter the bloodline during the devouring process. In contrast, Feng Xiong's bloodline power was almost directly devoured by the Wind Blade imprint without filtering. In other words, his bloodline power was extremely pure.

Compared to a normal Wind Wolf, it was like the difference between pure water and sewage. And in addition to its purity, the bloodline power was also abundant.

Feng Xiong’s bloodline power exceeded even the total of all the Wind Wolf bloodline imprints Tang San had devoured before. Initially, he had thought that to break through the fifth order of the Mysterious Heaven Technique, devouring a single fifth-order demon might not be enough, but this time, he had succeeded in one fell swoop. This showed that Feng Xiong's bloodline was extraordinary.

Regardless of why this was the case, the important thing was that he had succeeded.

That day, when he formulated a plan with the tiger man and secured three hundred breaths of time, Tang San had his own scheme in mind.

He came out early to fish in troubled waters, seizing this opportunity to enhance his own strength.

He hadn’t actually coveted the bloodline power of the Lord of Wind Wolf Town from the get-go. He wasn't completely sure he could take down a fifth-order Feng Xiong—there was a difference of an entire order, and he didn't have the abilities from his previous life, making it very difficult to defeat the physically strong wolf demon. In addition, the High Priest of Wind Wolf Town was also there, so he couldn’t approach Feng Xiong even if he wanted to.

Therefore, he just wanted to take advantage of the chaos to absorb some of the bloodline power of a bunch of Wind Wolves and Flash Leopards.

And indeed, that was what he had been doing all along.

When Feng Xiong was exiled, however, and its aura fell drastically due to that forced bloodline activation, Tang San immediately sensed an opportunity.

Such opportunities were extremely rare.

Sooner or later, he would have to face the peril of challenging a fifth-order demon while being only at the peak of the fourth order. After all, only by devouring a fifth-order bloodline could he break through to the fifth layer of the Mysterious Heaven Technique. So what better opportunity than this present moment? He had the time, so he went with the flow.

And this flow carried him all the way to success.

He couldn't afford to digest and absorb the energy he had devoured from Feng Xiong right now. Fortunately, when the Mysterious Heaven Technique broke through to the fifth order, it automatically absorbed a lot of energy. Even so, the excessive energy radiated from his body, enveloping him in green light, and the fifth-order Wind Blade imprint inside him clearly advanced a great deal within the fifth order.

Once he extracted all the energy he could get from Feng Xiong, Tang San felt inside Feng Xiong's clothing and quickly found a small bag, likely containing coins. He didn't have time to check, so he just swiftly put the bag into his own bosom.

Using his energy vortex, he suppressed the Wind Blade imprint. At the same time, he activated the Flash Leopard imprint, turning into a rapidly flickering yellow light.

The yellow light rapidly circled around Feng Xiong's corpse for several rounds, consuming some of the power of the Mysterious Heaven Technique. Then, Tang San determined a direction and activated Leopard Flash, darting away in the most energy-expensive manner he could imagine.

Less than ten breaths after he left, two figures descended from the sky.

A yellow light flickered, much like Tang San’s own, and a Flash Leopard landed beside Feng Xiong's corpse.

Seeing the body, the powerful seventh-order Flash Leopard’s eyes widened in surprise.

Following closely, the High Priest of Wind Wolf Town arrived at the scene, supported by a whirlwind.

Upon seeing Feng Xiong's corpse sprawled on the ground, the High Priest let out a piercing cry of grief and immediately rushed over, the Wind Wolf Heart in her hand fluctuating wildly.

"Who, who killed him?! Who?!”

The howl from the High Priest of Wind Wolf Town was so piercing that it could be heard clearly even ten miles away.

Shan Ling said without hesitation, “It wasn't me!”.

Upon seeing Feng Xiong's death, its first reaction was relief, then confusion. Although this Wind Wolf Town Lord hadn't broken through the sixth order, he was still at the peak of the fifth order. How could he die here in such a short time?

Earlier, he had been confronting the High Priest in Wind Wolf Town, but before the established hundred breaths had ended, the High Priest's expression changed dramatically, and she had quickly fled in this direction.

Although Shang Ling didn't know what had happened, he had naturally followed suit. Relying on his perception of Feng Xiong's aura, he had arrived ahead of the High Priest, only to find Feng Xiong's corpse.

When the High Priest of Wind Wolf Town looked up again, her eyes were filled with hatred. She roared almost crazily, ”Flash Leopard, it was your clan's doing. Do you realize what you've done? Do you know that Feng Xiong carries the bloodline of the Wind Wolf King?!”

While also shocked, Shan Ling replied, ”I already said I didn't do it! I don't know who freaking did it!"

The bloodline of the Wind Wolf King?! Why the hell is the Wind Wolf King's descendant a minor lord here?!
