Chapter 527: The Bottleneck of Yin-Yang Energy
After tomorrow's doubles competition, the qualifying situation would become clear. There was one more final round for both the individual and doubles competitions to determine the final spots for the finals. Then, the intense finals would begin.
The opponents in the finals were going to be on another level entirely. Those who made it to the finals not only were elite but also received the full support of their clans, so it was hard to predict how powerful they would be. However, Tang San remained confident in himself and Mei Gongzi, especially after Mei Gongzi's sudden enlightenment today, which greatly increased her strength. He had also regained some abilities from his previous life, thanks to Big Cat being enlightened to the God-Killing Domain.
All in all, this visit to the Ancestral Court was taking much longer than Tang San had initially expected. Of course, this was primarily due to Mei Gongzi. Without her, he would have returned to Kali City long ago. However, the gains from this trip were substantial, and laid a solid foundation for his future breakthrough to godhood. Once he returned to Kali City, he would quickly transform these new gains into direct combat power, allowing himself and his companions to make further comprehensive improvements. Then he would prepare for the big step—becoming a god once more.
Today's matches ended quite early, so Tang San didn't return to the hotel but went straight to the Sun Sacred Mountain. The yin-yang energy still needed some cultivation in order to reach the perfect level for integration.
Tang San had a premonition that if he could truly integrate the ultimate yin and yang into a new, powerful imprint, it might surpass even the fused imprint of the Behemoth and the Golden Mammoth. It could become the core imprint for his future breakthrough to the tenth order. However, the difficulty and danger of this integration were correspondingly enormous.
Not until midnight did Tang San finish his cultivation between the Sunborne Sacred Mountain and the Earthshade Sacred Mountain and returned to the hotel.
The hotel room was silent. Tang San quietly consolidated the yin-yang energy he had gathered, adjusting them carefully.
The yin-yang energy was increasing rapidly, so much so that the energy he had previously absorbed to nourish the Blue Silver Emperor imprint was no longer sufficient. As the quantity of yin-yang energy increased, it became denser, but this also meant he couldn't afford even the slightest instability. Any conflict could cause significant trouble.
Tang San knew he needed to pause his cultivation of the yin-yang energy, not only because the fusion medium that was the Blue-Silver Emperor was lacking, but also because his body was nearing its limit in terms of endurance.
Once yin-yang energy was cultivated in his dantian, he could use it to increase the power of almost all his other abilities. An example of that was how Tang San could infuse the yin-yang energy into his Golden Wing Wind Splitting Slash when he attacked the Wind Dragon contestant.
However, the more potent the yin-yang energy became, the more it affected the bloodline imprints. It impacted not just Tang San’s use of the imprints’ abilities, but also the imprints themselves.
With that in mind, it was pretty obvious what he had to do with the Wind Dragon Transformation. The Golden Roc Transformation was the most suitable for a fusion.
Both had flying capabilities, and adding control over the wind element to the Golden Roc Transformation would significantly enhance its flight ability. Moreover, although the Wind Dragons weren't the strongest among dragons, they were still dragons. The dragon clan's powerful innate physique would significantly enhance his own.
Tang San didn't know what the fusion would result in, but there was always some risk in merging different species. However, he didn’t expect it to suppress the Discerning Eye of Heaven, other first-tier bloodlines, or the yin-yang energy. And even if the fusion resulted in negative effects, he could simply abandon it and have Cheng Zicheng help him regain the Golden Roc Transformation imprint.
The only thing he regretted right now was not having that second pill from the Peacock Great Demon King. Otherwise, with a magic panacea that could almost bring the dead back to life, he would have no qualms attempting anything.
With this thought, Tang San made up his mind. After tomorrow's doubles competition, he would attempt the Wind Dragon—Golden Roc fusion in order to enhance his physique and continue cultivating the yin-yang energy.
Having clarified his thoughts, he gradually entered a state of deep meditation.
Time always seemed to feel insufficient. It felt as if he had just started meditating when his internal clock woke him up.
He opened the window and looked at the faint light rising in the east, beginning his practice of the Purple Demon Eyes.
While cultivating, Tang San couldn't help but find it amusing. Even in his previous life, his cultivation wasn't as urgent as it was in this life. The responsibilities he bore in this life were enormous. Mei Gongzi had a special status; without sufficient strength, how could he protect her? He could only keep pushing himself to improve quickly.
When Tang San finished his cultivation, washed up, and arrived at the dining hall, all his companions were there, obviously waiting for him. Zhang Haoxuan was absent today, probably busy with something else.
"Hey, Little Tang! How did you get to know the Peacock Princess?" Du Bai exclaimed, winking at Tang San as soon as he saw him. "She’s incredible!"
