Zhang Haoxuan looked at Du Bai, "That makes sense. Since it can't be hidden, you're grounded for now. I'll personally bring your meals to you later.""Uh..." Du Bai, who was initially bursting with excitement, suddenly sounded as if he was choking, "No, Chief, please spare me." Not being able to go out was an excruciating pain he simply couldn't endure.
Zhang Haoxuan said irritably, "You're grounded at least until you stop glowing. I'm going to rest now. Tang San, watch him for me. Don't go to Jiali Academy to work these next few days, just keep an eye on him."
Having said this, the Chief turned and left.
Looking pitiful, Du Bai turned to Tang San. Tang San spread his hands, "This is the teacher's order, I can't disobey. Besides, you really do need time to familiarize yourself with the changes following your breakthrough to the Fifth Stage of the Heavenly Fox Transformation."
"Oh." Du Bai lowered his head somewhat aggrieved, looking at his faintly glowing skin, his excitement faded for the moment.
"How does it feel? Is there anything different from before?" Tang San asked curiously. He wouldn't absorb Du Bai's bloodline power to help himself advance now, not until Du Bai's Fifth Stage cultivation had stabilized.
"It feels like I'm a completely different person now," Du Bai looked up at him again.
"I can't quite put my finger on it, but it just feels different."
Tang San nodded, "Your appearance has grown a bit, your vitality is much stronger than before, and your Spiritual Power is so condensed it's almost tangible. I think your cultivation of Spiritual Power could be compared to the seventh stage peak level. This breakthrough has directly advanced your Spiritual Power from just entering the seventh stage to nearly a full stage increase."
His own Spiritual Power was strong, and having experienced the entire process of Du Bai's breakthrough, he understood Du Bai's body even better than Du Bai himself did.
"During your breakthrough, your bloodline seemed to undergo a qualitative change, with Spiritual Power continuously emerging from your bloodline, initially clashing with the Spiritual Power in your Sea of Spirit, then slowly merging. The two complemented each other and eventually became one, helping you to complete the breakthrough. During this process, your Heavenly Fox Bloodline also seemed to undergo some marvelous changes, undergoing a sort of purification. It was as though all your bloodlines had been refined by your Sea of Spirit, and your body itself was the crucible for that purification. Saying it was a rebirth wouldn't be an exaggeration. Truly, it's a top-tier bloodline. I believe that, at least until the Seventh Stage, your cultivation speed won't slow down."
"Hahaha, that's great, I might also have the potential to break through the Seventh Stage," Du Bai found his excitement once again.
Tang San said, "Don't get too happy too soon. The breakthrough to the Fifth Stage is like a qualitative transformation for you, but during your breakthrough, did you know a Heavenly Fox shadow appeared above your head?"
"I had no idea!" Du Bai shook his head. At that time, he had been in a complete daze.
Tang San continued, "That Heavenly Fox had nine tails, and during the breakthrough, it went from one to two tails. In other words, you can now be considered a Two-Tailed Celestial Fox. It seems that with each further stage you advance, you'll likely grow an additional tail, until you reach rank 12 with nine tails. Therefore, I have reason to suspect that the first four stages of your Heavenly Fox Transformation were just a groundwork, and it's from this Fifth Stage breakthrough that the true enhancement begins. However, each breakthrough will likely be extremely difficult. And each one will be a transformation, without having to wait for a typical bloodline to reach the Seventh Stage for such a change."
"Is that so?" Du Bai looked at Tang San blankly, thinking that everything Tang San said made sense.
In fact, all of Tang San's analysis came from his experience through three lifetimes, even strong individuals like Zhang Haoxuan or Si Ru couldn't have provided a clearer analysis.
"So what should I do?" Du Bai asked in surprise.
Tang San replied, "Continue to diligently cultivate Spiritual Power, then use the Heavenly Fox Transformation more often, allowing your own bloodline and Spiritual Power to better merge into one. Keep driving the evolution of the Heavenly Fox Bloodline with Spiritual Power, pushing towards higher levels. Once your Spiritual Power has reached the peak of the Eighth Stage or even the Ninth Stage, you should be able to challenge the Sixth Stage. As for what comes after, let's discuss that once you reach the Sixth Stage."
"Mm-hmm. Alright." Du Bai nodded vigorously.
Tang San said, "You can try it now, see how the Heavenly Fox Eye has changed. See if it's any different from before."
"Okay!" Du Bai's spirits lifted, he took a deep breath, and immediately, white light surged throughout his body. Concentrating, he stimulated the bloodline aura, and instantly, the white light that was surging around his body converged above his head, the Heavenly Fox shadow reappeared, but it no longer had the aspect of nine elusive tails, now it was distinctly two.
The Heavenly Fox's azure eyes swept across, looking straight in Tang San's direction.
Tang San immediately felt as though his body had become transparent in an instant; under the Heavenly Fox's gaze, he felt as if there was nowhere to hide.
"Ah—," Just then, Du Bai suddenly cried out in agony, falling to the ground. The Heavenly Fox above his head also disappeared.
Tang San was startled and rushed to his side in a flash, "What happened?"
Du Bai was clutching his eyes with both hands, rolling on the ground in pain. Tang San quickly pulled away his hands, and on closer inspection, saw that his eyes were filled with blood vessels, with tears streaming out in abundance, clearly in excruciating pain.
The gentle Mysterious Heaven Method flowed into Du Bai's body, and under Tang San's continuous soothing, Du Bai's pain gradually subsided, but his eyes remained swollen and were too sore to open.
What happened? Could it be a side effect of using the Heavenly Fox Eye?
"Tang, Tang San. You, you, you..."
"What's wrong, Brother Du Bai?" Tang San asked confusedly.
"You blinded my Heavenly Fox Eyes!" Du Bai's voice trembled.
Tang San's heart shuddered, "What did you see?"
Du Bai subconsciously said, "Gold, endless gold, gold that pervaded heaven and earth. That was you, it was you, a gold you. An incomparably vast gold."
A glint flashed in Tang San's eyes, "You saw a golden me?"
Du Bai's emotions gradually steadied, and he nodded, "A golden you, penetrating heaven and earth. I only saw it for a moment, and I couldn't bear it. My eyes are so painful, so painful!"
Was what he saw his past life? No, that's not right. The Heavenly Fox Eye is the Eye of Luck, and it cannot reflect the past or the future. What he saw must be the Luck from his past life as a Godking. That is to say, the Luck from his past life surpassed the intensity he could perceive. That's why it was so. The Fifth Stage Heavenly Fox Eye had the ability to see other people's Luck. His own Heavenly Fox Eye could do it too, but it couldn't see as clearly as this.
"Brother Du Bai, stabilize yourself for now. Use your Spiritual Power to soothe the pain in your eyes, and practice with the Purple Demon Eyes I taught you," Tang San said, helping him to sit up.
Du Bai's chest rose and fell slightly, his breathing slightly rapid, he didn't speak again, falling into silence. S~eaʀᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
He lifted his hand and waved it, and Tang San quickly grabbed it.
"Tang, Tang San, did I see something I shouldn't have?" Du Bai whispered.
Tang San said, "No, what you saw was correct. You should have seen Luck. Perhaps, my Luck is too strong for your Heavenly Fox Eye to withstand, which is why you experienced such a severe stimulation. Once you've recovered, you can start trying to examine our classmates."
After another moment of silence, Du Bai said, "But, why, why is your Luck so overbearing? It's terrifying, do you know? Gold that pervaded heaven and earth, as if it could light up the whole world with its gold."
Tang San said with a wry smile, "You have the Heavenly Fox Eye, and you don't know what's going on, so how could I possibly know? However, it's best if you keep this to yourself and don't tell anyone else. I don't want to be treated as a guinea pig!"
