Chapter 1480: Breakaway

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The giant silver claw suddenly glowed brightly. The mighty voice sounded slightly infuriated as it said, “I chose to cooperate with all of you, but that doesn’t mean that I’ll yield to you.”

The seven-colored radiance glowed brightly while silver light dazzled. The entire pond underneath burst forth and surged upward instantaneously. The silver claw swung three times in the sky, and it felt as if everything was about to break apart.

The Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape had already exerted all their strength, but they were still being dominated by the silver radiance.

With a single flash of silver light, Tang Wulin disappeared without a trace, nowhere to be found.

The Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape transformed back into their human forms and appeared by the shore once again. Their expressions had turned quite unpleasant. Enraged, The Azure Oxpython spoke, “It’s unreasonable that they took the boy without explaining anything. What if the boy is truly related to Tang San? Tang Wulin? If he isn’t lying, then his name is very similar to Wutong’s name, right? When Wutong was given his name, Tang San said that Tang Wutong carries the meaning of Tang San and Xiaowu’s little phoenix. If the boy is named Tang Wulin, then doesn’t that carry the meaning of Tang San and Xiaowu’s little Qilin? That being said, he doesn’t resemble Tang San or Xiaowu!”

“You fool. Can’t you tell that he put on makeup?” The Azure Oxpython spoke with slight exasperation, “We could have asked and figured that out if he didn’t get taken away. There are plenty of methods to verify his identity. He attempted to stop your attack with his trident earlier. Even though it was a trifling move, it was quite similar to Tang San’s Millenium Cloud. It is very much a possibility. If he is truly the son of Tang San and Xiao Wu, then we must protect him regardless. He is also our only clue to finding the Divine Realm.”

“What should we do then? Shall we leave this place?” asked the Titan Giant Ape.

Unstable radiance flickered in the Azure Oxpython’s eyes. “We have an agreement with that person to help them control all the soul beast seeds they resurrected. If all of us leave, those soul beasts will lose control and trouble will arise. We can’t all leave, so you should go. Go out and look for him. Whatever happens, you must find him and protect him. Set down a mark on his body so we can appear by his side at any time.”

“Alright! Then what should we do with this boy?” Titan Giant Ape pointed to Lan Fozi still lying on the floor.

“Take him to the outside. He was willing to spare no effort in order to save Tang Wulin, so I suppose he’s Tang Wulin’s friend. We can’t hurt him anyhow. Toss him out. I guess they will transport him away at once.”

“Hmm.”

...

There was a flash of silver. The restricting pressure Tang Wulin felt on his body vanished soon after. His soul power and bloodline power flowed back and everything felt normal once again.

The silver light continued to shimmer around him, majestic and vast. This time, he had witnessed the giant silver claw, which was exactly what his companions had described before. Where did it actually come from?

The creature was capable of saving his companions in the Great Star Dou Forest then saved himself on the miniature plane of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform from the Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape. It was so strange.

All sorts of questions flooded his mind. In a way, it felt as if the answer was taking shape in his mind, but he still could not seize it completely.

After another flash of silver, Tang Wulin’s vision dimmed. The silver radiance vanished without a trace and he found himself at the entrance of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform.

‘I’m out?’ He was stunned for a moment then he heard a gasp of surprise.

“You’re the one that disappeared into the forbidden zone? How did you get out?” inquired an attendant already dashing over.

Tang Wulin answered with a bitter smile, “I don’t know either! I just got out in such baffling manner. It seems like I lost consciousness on the inside.”

The staff continued probing, “Do you still remember anything from that place?”

Tang Wulin shook his head. “I can’t remember anything.”

The attendant asked another question, “So do you feel anything different about yourself now?”

Tang Wulin shook his head in confusion.

The attendant heaved a sigh and said, “That’s truly a waste. The Ten Thousand Beast Platform is supposed to be a bonus round. Our Spirit Pagoda has developed a new way to evolve spirit souls that is capable of causing a change in the spirit souls’ cultivation base. The longer the spirit soul grows on the inside, the greater the effect of the change.”

Astonished, Tang Wulin asked, “Why is that so? Is the organization trying to kill soul beasts?”

The staff shook his head and said, “No. Within the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, we’ve simulated the habitat of soul beasts in ancient times. Reality is slightly different inside, so it can promote the growth of soul beasts and spirit souls. The longer the soul beast grows on the inside, the better for its growth as well.”

Tang Wulin felt shocked. So the Spirit Pagoda has actually managed to develop such a thing? It was true that he did sense a change when he was there. Even so, his spirit souls seemed to be unaffected by the environment. Could that be because he had encountered the Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape?

If that was the case, the Spirit Pagoda had managed to seize control of another weapon of mass destruction which could certainly help soul masters evolve their spirit souls. One could only imagine how many would come here for it. With the addition of the black spirit souls they had developed, it would be difficult for the Tang Sect to change the Spirit Pagoda’s status in the Federation.

“According to your time spent on the inside, you’re qualified to receive a perfect score for this round. Please proceed to the following test.” The attendant shook his head at Tang Wulin with slight regret.

Tang Wulin asked, “if I wish to enter the Ten Thousand Beast Platform once again, would I be allowed to do so?” The conversation between him, the Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape had not ended, and he wished to figure out if his speculation was correct. However, he could not return anymore now.

The attendant shook his head continuously and said, “You definitely can’t do that and we’re not authorized to allow you to go back either. When the Joust For A Spouse Festival has ended, we will publicly debut the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. At that point, you can enter it if you pay the appropriate fee.”

As expected, it was a trick to accumulate wealth by unfair means! Tang Wulin let out a sigh of relief. It would be great if he could enter the place once again. He could even bring his companions. If it was truly capable of elevating the cultivation base of one’s spirit soul, then it was simply a revolutionary creation for soul masters. Tang Wulin had no choice but to admit that the Spirit Pagoda had genuinely outdone themselves this time!

Tang Wulin asked around and learned that the final two rounds were basically some comprehensive quality tests. However, those tests did not carry any realistic meaning compared to the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. They more like filler just to have a total of ten rounds. Moreover, his total score exceeded sixty points, so he already qualified for the later tests.

Thus, he had no plan to participate in the following rounds but would remain in the Ten Thousand Beast Platform instead.

If his guess was correct, the Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape would not harm Lan Fozi.

Lan Fozi made a move to save him at the final juncture despite being fully aware that the Azure Oxpython and the Titan Giant Ape were incredibly powerful. Tang Wulin was affected deeply by the gesture, so he did not want anything bad to happen to Lan Fozi.

There was a flash of light. He did not have to wait long before Lan Fozi arrived after a few other participants were transported out.

Even so, she remained unconscious when she was brought out.

“It seems like someone came out from the forbidden zone unconscious. Quick, where’s the medical personnel?”

The medical team that came over at once. They were about to examine her when they were stopped by Tang Wulin.

“I’ll do it. He’s with me.” As he spoke, Tang Wulin squatted down and shook Lan Fozi while infusing a burst of the Mysterious Heaven Method’s soul power into her body.

Lan Fozi did not suffer from any severe injuries. She shivered in the cold before regaining consciousness.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Tang Wulin and made a gesture of covering her breasts with her arms at once almost subconsciously. “What are you doing? Go away!”

“I...” Tang Wulin was at a loss for words. He stood up. “I was only helping you!”

The Spirit Pagoda’s staff began to look at both of them with peculiar expressions. What was the relationship between these two? Obviously, they were both male!

Sensing the strange stares all around her, Lan Fozi realized that she had already come out from the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. She leapt to her feet and gave Tang Wulin a ferocious glare before turning around and walking out.

Tang Wulin felt like he could not withstand the stares that came from his surroundings, so he hastily followed her and walked out of the eighth round together.

“Why are you following me?” shouted Lan Fozi as soon as she got out from the exit, stopping in her tracks.

Tang Wulin spoke with an innocent expression, “I wasn’t trying to follow you! There’s only one exit and I have to come out from here too! Are you okay?”

Lan Fozi darted him a look. “I’m fine. Don’t follow me anymore! You saved me once and I saved you once. We’re even now. Just like you said, you look after your own concerns and I’ll attend to my affairs. We won’t be seeing each other anymore in the future.” She walked away with quick strides immediately after saying that as if she was trying to avoid an epidemic.

Tang Wulin touched his nose. He could not help smiling bitterly to himself. ‘What is going on with her?! I have yet to question her about why she is attending the Joust For A Spouse Festival despite being female, yet she is acting as if she hates me.”
