Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 7: Ingesting and Absorbing

Tang San delved deeper, asking, "Does this mean that your Demonic God Transformation was also inherited through a mixed-blood lineage?"

The young man clenched his teeth as he revealed, "Yes, my mother was violated by a leopard demon, and I was the result of that union."

Tang San continued to press on, his curiosity burning brightly. "So, is it accurate to say that the sole route to obtaining the Demonic God Transformation is through this mixed-blood lineage?"

"Deprivation is another method. It's where you give up your own Demonic God Transformation power to make an inheritance and immediately pass it on to someone else. If they're compatible, they might get the power. If not, it could kill them," the young man replied.

Tang San's eyes shone with curiosity. "How frequently can someone receive such an inheritance, and what conditions determine compatibility?"

"Usually, individuals without any Demonic God Transformation power are the most likely to be compatible, although it also depends on whether their physical constitution can handle it. As for those already possessing Demonic God Transformation power, compatibility relies on whether the two types of power coexist and progress harmoniously," the young man explained.

Tang San thought about it and asked, "Can someone take the Demonic God Transformation power directly from demons and nymphs? Can they use their bloodline power to strengthen their Demonic God Transformation?"

The young man hesitated before replying, "Uh...hmm, I don't know. Is it actually possible? But wouldn't the bloodline become chaotic if one devoured the power of demons or nymph bloodlines? Wouldn't that lead to death? It’s most likely not possible."

"Perhaps it's worth trying, even with the potential dangers involved," Tang San mused.

As Tang San continued his conversation with the young man, he delved deeper into the mysteries of the power system in this enchanting world, especially how humans harnessed it. The Demonic God Transformation was about tapping into the incredible bloodline powers of demons and nymphs. Yet, because of the inherent frailty of human bloodlines, those with mixed blood could never hope to attain the same towering might as their pure-blooded counterparts. Nevertheless, those gifted with the Demonic God Transformation still wielded formidable strength beyond the reach of ordinary humans. It dawned on Tang San that mastering the art of Demonic God Transformation was vital if he desired swift growth in his abilities.

"Do you have any last wishes?" Tang San asked the young man.

"I am Zhu Jiaxin.". The young man revealed his identity with a bitter smile.

"My mother suffered and died at the hands of that leopard demon. In this world, I have no remaining kin. Even though you’re a child, you possess the strength to contend with a third-order wolf demon. I believe your Demonic God Transformation must be powerful. If you want to assist our human race, consider joining our organization. I'm on the verge of dying, and since you have an interest in the Demonic God Transformation, I can transfer my power to you. Whether you absorb it or not is entirely your decision, but if you sense incompatibility, please don’t force it,” Zhu Jiaxin explained.

"Your organization? What's it called? And where is it located?" Tang San asked with curiosity.

"Our organization has a presence in all major cities inhabited by demons and nymphs. I can't provide you with specific people to contact, but when you grow older and decide to seek us out, you'll surely be able to find us. Our organization is called Redemption Society. We exist to save humanity," Zhu Jiaxin explained.

As Zhu Jiaxin spoke, a flush of red colored his cheeks. He began to shiver uncontrollably, and a faint yellow light emanated from deep within him, casting a glow on his previously clouded eyes. Now, his eyes shone with a newfound clarity.

"Child, you don’t have to tell me who you are," Zhu Jiaxin began, his voice brimming with determination. "I've always clung to the belief that one day, we will overthrow the demons and nymphs who have enslaved us, and humanity will reclaim its rightful place as the true masters of this world. We exist for redemption, so we must work tirelessly and grow stronger. Please, do not bury my body, and do not risk exposing yourself. Instead, grow and become even more formidable. Long live humanity!"

As he uttered his final words, Zhu Jiaxin's voice faded. However, the yellow light that enveloped him grew more intense, eventually converging into a radiant yellow sphere that hovered before him.

The radiance from the yellow sphere cast a soft glow upon Tang San's youthful face, while Zhu Jiaxin's eyes were filled with a profound longing and a radiant devotion. As the light sphere finally took shape, he slumped in place as his strength was wholly drained.

The luminous sphere remained suspended in the air, its presence ethereal and elusive. Tang San sensed an extraordinary power within it. Still, this power appeared to be dwindling, teetering on the edge of fading away. It was a responsibility entrusted to him by Zhu Jiaxin in the last moments of the young man's life.

Tang San extended his hand without hesitation and enveloped the luminous sphere with his palm, activating his Mysterious Heaven Technique.

Considering what Zhu Jiaxin had said earlier about those without the Demonic God Transformation potentially having an edge, Tang San, having activated the Mysterious Heaven Technique, was brimming with newfound confidence. Moreover, though significant, Zhu Jiaxin's Demonic God Transformation power was at about the third order. This meant that even if it wasn’t compatible with Tang San, it was unlikely to cause much harm.

Furthermore, Tang San had found himself in this unfamiliar world with a mission—to locate his beloved and ultimately transcend this realm and return to his original world. To accomplish this, he had to grow stronger. Now, harnessing the power of this world appeared to be the most convenient path to becoming stronger.

The yellow light sphere exuded a gentle warmth. As Tang San grasped it with his hand, he immediately sensed the energy coursing into his body.

Rather than absorbing the energy directly, Tang San exercised control, skillfully channeling it into his right arm. Utilizing the precision of his Mysterious Heaven Technique, he sealed off his meridians, preventing the energy from spreading further within his body.

In silence, Tang San watched with rapt attention as the yellow light brought about transformations before his eyes.

To his amazement, as Tang San used the Mysterious Heaven Technique to connect with the inherited power of the Demonic God Transformation, the inherited power revealed an unexpected adaptability. It willingly fused with his energy, blending seamlessly. At first, it displayed a hint of restlessness, even a touch of wildness. Still, upon contact with the energy of the Mysterious Heaven Technique, it swiftly yielded, becoming more pliable and obedient.

This is......

Tang San maintained his focus, silently using his Mysterious Heaven Technique as he watched the absorption of the yellow energy. A pleasant warmth enveloped his entire being, and he couldn't help but notice a marked improvement in his Mysterious Heaven Technique. Usually, it would’ve taken him several months of hard work to achieve the same result.

Furthermore, the yellow energy seemed to trigger subtle changes in his physique. His meridians, bones, and muscles underwent a strengthening process. This inheritance of the Demonic God Transformation acted as a tonic, enriching and revitalizing his body.

The energy of the Demonic God Transformation seemed readily absorbable through his Mysterious Heaven Technique. The ease of absorption contrasted with Zhu Jiaxin's earlier description of blood inheritance as carrying a fatal risk due to incompatibility. During the absorption process, Tang San felt no sense of danger, let alone a threat to his life. It appeared that his Mysterious Heaven Technique allowed him to assimilate the Demonic God Transformation's inheritance without complications.

The situation was becoming increasingly fascinating. As Tang San pondered the complete assimilation of this inheritance, he couldn't help but wonder if he could acquire the Leopard Flash skill.

With that in mind, Tang San swiftly implemented his plan. He approached the lifeless body of a third-order wolf demon and placed his hand on it.

Utilizing his Mysterious Heaven Technique, Tang San channeled his energy into the wolf demon's lifeless form.

The wolf demon's body still held some lingering warmth. As Tang San directed his energy into it, he sensed a faint residual energy. He felt a magnetic pull when he connected with the unknown energy. The Mysterious Heaven Technique allowed him to absorb that energy and seamlessly merge it into his own.

Even though the energy was minimal, Tang San was sure it existed. Could this be the bloodline power of the wolf demon?
