Chapter 317: Chapter 316 Seventh Stage Time Variation Seal

Wu Bingji was a bit dizzy from what he said, but he still understood some of it.Tang San quickly brought him back to the Golden Valley, settled him next to the Golden Tree, and let him absorb the life force from the life energy to replenish his own consumed life force. He didn't rush to cultivate; he was purely supplementing his life force.

Only then did he and Zhang Haoxuan leave together again to pick up the other three.

The Golden Valley remained calm and full of life aura. Tang San now had no intention to care about how much their battle had affected Jiali City. He had to stay by his companions' sides, hoping that they could all make a breakthrough by harnessing their potential during this time.

After listening to Tang San's account of the team battle and the reactions of the human populace, Zhang Haoxuan could no longer stay in the Golden Valley to continue his cultivation and hurried back to the academy town. There were too many matters to handle.

It was good that all humans were united, but if they were too cohesive and the momentum too massive, even without the Peacock Demon King, they could easily be suppressed by the officials. Of course, the Redemption Organization could not allow this to happen, he needed to return to oversee the whole situation and quickly intervene with some measures.

The fourth beast fight in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena provided a massive stimulation for the four members of the Shrek squad, apart from Tang San. Whether it was their outburst or the mental pressure they faced, all had a significant impact. Tang San could feel that his four teammates had all grown and transformed noticeably after this battle. It wasn't just their strength that had evolved, but their mindsets as well.

Only when truly facing a life-and-death test, could a person's potential be more easily stimulated. Wu Bingji and the others didn't realize that, in fact, without knowing when it started, their mental maturity had already exceeded their peers, and they were still growing rapidly. Even Du Bai, who was originally more reckless, had become more stable.

Gu Li woke up after sleeping for a day, then immediately began meditating and soon entered a state of deep meditation, clearly having some insights.

When Du Bai returned, he started meditating on his own, and for three consecutive days, he didn't wake up from his meditation. Tang San vaguely sensed some changes in him and cultivated beside him every day, protecting him while also silently influencing him with his Power of Luck, acting as his guardian. He understood Du Bai's current thoughts; if he did not break through to the Sixth Stage, he would probably not end his meditation. With the nourishment of the life energy from the Golden Tree, there was no need to worry about the problem of hunger.

Wu Bingji's cultivation base had ultimately regressed, but after the replenishment of life energy, his life force recovered, and his appearance returned to its original state. However, his cultivation fell from the high end of the Eighth Stage to the Seventh Stage Realm, plunging more than a whole stage. This was the price of burning his bloodline. But just as Tang San said, although his cultivation had fallen, Wu Bingji surprisingly found that he felt much clearer, like his entire being had become translucent, and his sensitivity and control over the ice element seemed to have many new and different feelings, as if everything had become clearer. Therefore, he was not in a hurry and began to cultivate his state again under the rich nourishment of life energy here. With the experience from before, returning to the Eighth Stage was just a matter of time.

Cheng Zicheng's breakthrough was the fastest one. She advanced a minor rank stage directly, reaching the high level of the Seventh Stage, and continuing to move forward meant reaching the peak of the Seventh Stage.

After her spontaneous outburst in the fight, she also developed a new battle skill, which was the Golden Winged Meteor Slash that she used to cut the Totem Pillar.

This was a full-force strike launched by combining the Golden Wing Cloak Slash with her own speed, in an almost self-sacrificing situation.

The most critical issue with the Golden Winged Meteor Slash was that it was easy to suffer backlash injuries, so Tang San's advice to her was to strive to temper her physique.

The faster the speed, the stronger the attack power naturally is, but equally, it required the endurance of the physique. If the body could not withstand it, then no matter how strong the attack was, it would be meaningless because harming the enemy would mean harming oneself.

Cheng Zicheng deeply realized this and, while recovering from the fracture, she tempered her body with the power of her bloodline.

Tang San actually reaped benefits this time, mainly from that black sword—a narrow sword forged from the long beak of a Ninth Stage Red-crowned Crane Demon.

The sword was three feet and six inches long, with the hilt alone accounting for nine inches. Its slender blade was incredibly sharp. It wasn't made from metal, but rather was the weapon that the Red-crowned Crane Demon had been tempering since the moment of its birth, continuously refined until it had reached the Ninth Stage, making it exceptionally sharp and durable. Most remarkable was the fact that when bloodline power was infused into it, it would naturally transform into sharp sword qi.

Tang San had not used swords in the past, but that did not mean he did not understand them. This weapon, if talking purely about its might, was far superior to the Earth Shattering Hammer. Of course, the Earth Shattering Hammer itself had not truly brought out its power.

While guarding his companions in their cultivation practice, Tang San also fiddled with the black sword, recalling his research in the Divine Realm and attempting to cultivate a set of swordsmanship.

As his divine consciousness gradually recovered, memories of his previous life became clearer and clearer. His Ninth Stage peak Spiritual Power constantly nourished his divine consciousness, giving him a current actual strength that far exceeded the Eighth Stage he appeared to possess.

Why did the Ninth Stage Red-crowned Crane Demon stand no chance against him? It was because Tang San himself possessed two First level Bloodlines, along with several High Level Bloodlines. Coupled with the Godking's insight and experience, how could the Red-crowned Crane Demon even compare?

However, Tang San would not engage with his full strength unless it was necessary.

Zhang Haoxuan had been away for a full half month before he returned to Golden Valley, bringing news from the outside world.

Following the previous battle, the Shrek squad had become renowned. In the hearts of the human vassals, they rapidly achieved iconic status. The Grand Animal Fighting Arena also made a fortune from that battle. However, the officials did not intend to suppress humans because of this. The reason was simple; to the officials, a Beast Fight was insignificant. They just thought it was foolish humans amusing themselves. Compared to the Monsters, humans were still too weak after all.

No waves had been stirred up, which was the best outcome, meaning the Shrek squad could continue their battles in the future without much impact.

Zhang Haoxuan also discovered a pleasant surprise—Gu Li had made a breakthrough, successfully entering the Seventh Stage Realm. The Seventh Stage Time Variation Seal!

The Seventh Stage represents a qualitative change; a Seventh Stage Gu Li could now stably execute three major time laws—Time Acceleration, Time Reversion, and Time Freeze, with a huge increase in strength. Moreover, when he transformed, the physical strength of the Time Crocodile also increased significantly, with the Tail Hammer nearly doubling in size.

According to the evolutionary direction of the Time Crocodile, if he could one day achieve God level strength, his Tail Hammer could even be directly refined into a hammer.

Gu Li's Time Variation Seal had evolved, and having been constantly by his side, influenced by the aura of bloodline, Tang San naturally entered the Seventh Stage Realm as well.

The only concern for Zhang Haoxuan was that Du Bai was still in closed-door meditation. Half a month had passed, and he had not yet ended his session of deep meditation.

The overall strength of the Shrek squad had been enhanced. After this period of rest and consolidation, Senior Brother Wu Bingji's Cultivation base returned to the peak of the Seventh Stage. Similarly close to the peak of the Seventh Stage was Cheng Zicheng, and not to mention Gu Li who was just entering the initial phase of the Seventh Stage, Du Bai who was preparing to break through in meditation, and of course, Tang San, who was now the first in terms of Cultivation base—an Eighth Stage. Yes, unbeknownst to all, Tang San had become the highest within the team in terms of Cultivation base.

"Tang San, do you have any plans on when to go to the Ancestral Court?" Zhang Haoxuan asked Tang San with a smile. Ever since his breakthrough to God Rank, he had been in a great mood, and on top of that, Shrek squad's team victories in the four group battles had noticeably increased the cohesiveness among the human vassals within Jiali City, with everything progressing in a favorable direction. At least in other main cities, the Redemption Organization definitely did not have such achievements.
