Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 923 - 921: Seven-Colored Blood

Tang San gradually forgot about this matter until this time when he went to the Ancestral Court for his mission report. It was during the report that he received approval from the Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor of the Emperor Sky Pillar, which reminded him of this episode and led him to consider a possibility.

"Do you want me to look for it now?" Pretty Girl asked.

Tang San nodded and said, "The sooner, the better. I have an idea. If successful, it might open up a new path of cultivation for our human race."

Hearing this, Pretty Girl immediately snapped out of her romantic daydreams. "If that's the case, that would be excellent. Now that overseas has stabilized, everything is progressing in an orderly fashion, even faster than initially planned. The organization has also been successful in rallying humans from various regions, just waiting for transport. With the fall of the Crystal Great Demon Emperor, the trouble encountered by Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox, and most recently the sudden death of the Diamond Elf King, both the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan are too preoccupied to bother with us humans. It is a good opportunity for development. It's just a pity we lack a path for cultivation. The majority of humans still can't improve through cultivation. Only a small number of humans have the ability of Demon God Transformation and Heavenly Spirit Transformation. You really need to hurry. Without a suitable method of cultivation for humans, we'll never be able to contend with them."

Tang San nodded and said, "I understand. Once things at the Ancestral Court are settled, I should be able to definitely offer help to our side."

Pretty Girl asked, "What are you doing at the Ancestral Court? Did you come back from the west?"

Tang San nodded and replied, "I can't tell you right now. You'll know when the time comes. I'm working on a big project at the Ancestral Court. If successful, it might lay a foundation for the future of our human race."

Pretty Girl said in a slightly annoyed tone, "Always so mysterious. Just wait here for me, I'll go find it for you now." Although she really wanted to spend more time with Tang San, she understood the urgency of his needs; whatever he urgently required must be of great importance.

Pretty Girl went in search of the blood of the Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor. Tang San showed a faint smile on his face, as he had not told her that he was the one who killed the Diamond Elf King and also about the identity he was currently impersonating. He was worried that she might give away hints when facing "Jin Miaolin" during the future martial contest to seek marriage partners. There would undoubtedly be emperors present, especially if the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox was there, and once any clues were discovered, his disguise could be exposed. Therefore, he preferred to wait a bit longer.

After a short time, Pretty Girl returned, handing Tang San a delicate Crystal Bottle.

Within the Crystal Bottle, a faint seven-colored halo flowed, wasn't this exactly the blood of the Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor from before?

Tang San took the Crystal Bottle and said, "This is exactly what I need."

"How does the blood of the Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor have any relation to us humans?" Pretty Girl curiously asked. "I asked my father before why the Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beasts couldn't produce another Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor. Father said that the original Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor had exceptionally strong Spiritual Power at birth, far surpassing ordinary clansmen. After it, neither Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beasts nor Golden Deer Demons have had such extraordinary talents since, so no other Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor has emerged. Controlling multiple elements is truly not an easy task."

Tang San nodded and said, "Yes, to control multiple elements at the same time requires very strong spiritual control to multitask and comprehend the true essence of elements. But what if it's just a single element?"

"Hm? Like me?" Pretty Girl said. She was referring to her control over space elements.

Tang San smiled and shook his head, "No, not like you. You have bloodline power that inherently connects you to space elements. But in this world, actually, every race has its own attributes. Like the Huoli Clan I encountered during my travels, they are of fire attribute. The Diamond Elves you just mentioned are primarily of earth element, but there are also Diamond Elves of other attributes. And for us humans as well, different people have different attributes, although comparatively weaker. But in fact, while the bloodline talent of humans may not be impressive, our inherent Spiritual Power is not weak. We possess higher intelligence, which means we also have good Spiritual Power talent; it's just that it's not easy to develop."

"So, I was thinking. If it's possible to discern each person's bloodline attributes and identify those amongst our clansmen with high elemental affinity, and have them try to cultivate and enhance their Spiritual Power while also boosting their affinity for their corresponding element, wouldn't this grant them the power to control elements? This is what I want to attempt. The Seven-colored Deer Great Demon Emperor's bloodline controls seven elements. I plan to closely sense the abilities within its bloodline to analyze how to enhance elemental affinity."

Pretty Girl couldn't help but express her amazement upon hearing his words: "That's quite an idea! Could that really work? If so, wouldn't that mean that everyone could practice controlling elemental powers? Even among the Monster Clan, those who control elements are at a very high level."

Tang San smiled faintly and said: "Of course, it's not suitable for everyone. Each person's elemental affinity is different, as are their attributes. We can only find those with high elemental affinity; only they may have this potential. But this is still a path to be explored. Even if only one in ten, or even one in a hundred, humans can walk this path, it's still a unique ability for our race."

Pretty Girl nodded in agreement: "That's true, I wish you success. Are you heading back now?"

Tang San embraced her and responded: "I can't stay here too long. I have important matters to attend to back at the Ancestral Court. But don't worry, as soon as things stabilize on my end, I'll come back to see you often. Is that okay?"

"Not good. Who said I wanted you back?" Pretty Girl said the opposite of what she meant, her arms pulling him in tightly.

Struggle shone in Tang San's eyes; how could he bear to leave her? What could be better than holding one's beloved in their arms?

Bowing his head, he gently kissed her forehead and whispered softly: "My dear, trust me, it won't be long before we don't have to part ways ever again. Also, I've given it some thought; you agreed to the martial contest to choose a spouse at the Ancestral Court, right? I'm already at the Ancestral Court, so I'll wait for you there. Once I win the contest, we can be together legitimately. And believe me, by then, there will be no impediments—not even the emperors will oppose our union."

Pretty Girl looked up at him and said, "Really? I'm very worried. I'm mainly worried about you."

These past days, she had been thinking about how to handle the contest for a spouse, which concerned her and Tang San's happiness. If there were any flaws in the event, it could lead to significant trouble. She definitely couldn't marry anyone else, but what if another race's powerful contender defeated her and the other competitors? Could Tang San really reveal his strength in front of all the emperors? After all, he possessed too many abilities that were not from this world. One misstep, and he could be in mortal danger.

"Trust me, I will handle everything. This is also why I haven't told you what I'm doing at the Ancestral Court; a significant part of what I'm doing is to prepare for our martial contest," Tang San reassured her.

"Mhm, I believe you," Pretty Girl nodded slightly. She was about to rest her cheek against Tang San's chest again when he lifted her delicate face with his hands.

His face grew increasingly large in her eyes, and in the next moment, his breath engulfed her.

After a while, in the soft halo of light, the figure before her vanished, leaving only the warmth lingering on her lips.

Pretty Girl stood still for a long while before she couldn't help but say irritably, "That naughty fellow, to touch my heart then flee. Hmph!"
