Chapter 402: Chapter 401 Comprehensive Enhancement

Domains would undoubtedly grow with the growth of cultivation base, and Tang San had just felt the change in Du Bai after his advancement to Four-tailed, where no domain emerged. Although he could control luck and misfortune better, it was different from his own domain. This meant that the emergence of a domain was not an inevitable occurrence after reaching Four-tailed; rather, it was related to the assistance he had received from Jingjing in that perilous moment.With Tang San's experience as a God King, he understood that the emergence of his domain was most likely due to mutation.

It was a mutation that occurred instantaneously under specific conditions and opportunities. Currently, this mutation seemed to be benign. What needed to be observed was whether the domain would undergo any changes after exiting to the outside world.

Inside Hell's Garden, having this domain was tantamount to making this place his home ground. In the future, whenever he wanted to enter here again, he would be in his element. This was also Tang San's greatest gain from his journey to Hell's Garden.

What he needed to do now was to strive to control this domain, mastering its power so he could wield it with ease.

The journey to Heaven Garden had solidified his Spiritual Power, and the divine consciousness within his Spiritual Core had clearly improved by a margin.

If the divine consciousness intensity of a God level strong was a hundred, the intensity Tang San brought with him to this world was one, which was all he could manage to retain. However, the source of his divine consciousness was at the God King level, so the evolution of his divine consciousness had no bottlenecks.

With years of nurturing, his divine consciousness had reached nearly eight when he last erupted as the Sea God, and after that expenditure, it was left at two. With further nurturing over time, along with the nourishment from the life aura of the Golden Tree and various opportunities, it had improved to around twenty.

This trip to Heaven Garden directly elevated his divine consciousness to thirty. Without accounting for the foundation of a God King, his divine consciousness intensity was already equivalent to one-third of that of a God level strong. Combining this with Tang San's own God King foundation and the mysteries of his divine consciousness, he was confident that he could overpower an ordinary God King strong without expending too much divine consciousness.

However, achieving the God King level was not an easy task for him. Tang San had already decided that he would need to possess the Nine Great Bloodline Brands at the Ninth Stage, advance his divine consciousness to the God King realm, and ensure that all Nine Great Brands were at the peak of the Ninth Stage before considering breaking through to the God King level.

This trip to the Ancestral Court had been extremely beneficial for him, most importantly for obtaining a great deal of useful information. The collection of this information would play a significant role in his future breakthrough to deity.

Of course, this also brought with it some risks, such as the Crystal Great Demon Emperor's Jingjing, who would be his next impending crisis. Jingjing had already hatched, and whether to send her back to the Crystal Great Demon Emperor or keep her by his side was what he needed to consider.

If Jingjing were just a little girl, he would have definitely sent her back because she was a hot potato. But the problem was that now Jingjing had directly merged into his body and transformed into a brand within his Dantian. How could he possibly send her back?

The Crystal Great Demon Emperor had already felt the uniqueness of his body and his multiple bloodline abilities during their last interaction. If the brand of Jingjing were added, Tang San would have nowhere to hide. Thus, he actually had no choice.

After exiting, he would first see if the Crystal Great Demon Emperor would proactively contact him. In theory, since the Spirit brand on the Crystal Egg had completely dissipated, unless he could sense Jingjing's aura, he probably wouldn't be able to detect anything directly. He could only take it one step at a time.

Now, Tang San's biggest regret was visiting the Crystal Palace; he found it hard to see through the first-ranked Great Demon Emperor even with his God King experience.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Three explosive booms woke up the people who were meditating in silence.

They stood up and looked into the distance, only to see a mushroom cloud-like fireball rising near the exit. Numerous flowers around it were shattered by the blast. The shockwave was so powerful that even several kilometers away, they could feel it, causing the surrounding Cold-colored Flowers to sway outward.

My goodness… the power of a strike from a God level strong was probably just like that.

And as the rumbling ceased, the battle in the distance seemed to have completely subsided. The light pillar signifying the exit began to vibrate and the original white color gradually shifted to gold. In the midst of it, Tang San seemed to glimpse the outline of a large white flower at the center of the pillar.

He almost blurted out, "The exit has opened!"

Indeed, this should be what the opening of the exit looked like, signifying that more than half of the contestants who entered the group battle were now dead.

The tremendous explosion just now had undoubtedly claimed the lives of many participants, leaving it uncertain what had occurred.

"Let's go take a look," Tang San's domain quietly expanded a bit as he led his companions towards the exit.

Within the exit pillar of light, streaks of light began to flicker, seemingly silhouettes of people.

By the time they made it to the exit, the place was empty, not a single living person remained.

Indeed, there were no living people. However, on the ground, various chunks of bodies were slowly being devoured and absorbed by the earth, vanishing without a trace.

This...

It seems, perhaps, maybe, they were too late!

The five looked at each other before their gazes all converged on Tang San.

Tang San's mouth twitched slightly, the plan of the Spirit Rhinoceros Business Association clearly couldn't be carried out as they were unable to locate the existence of the cooperative team, let alone know their condition.

"Smear some blood on ourselves and then let's get out of here," Tang San said indifferently. Even if the plan of the Spirit Rhinoceros Business Association failed, it didn't matter to him. After all, he already had the tokens of three Great Demon Emperor Palaces to protect him.

They quickly smeared blood on themselves while the flesh and blood had not yet been fully absorbed, disguising themselves as injured, put on their masks, and then headed towards the pillar of light.

…

Outside the valley, Xu Ziran had been waiting with several carriages for some time now, his face ashen.

Somehow, the identity of the strongest team they had bribed secretly had been exposed to the other participants ahead of time. As a result, during the final battle, they were targeted and subsequently chose to self-destruct, taking many with them.

The number of survivors from Hell's Garden was less than a third of those who entered, and most of them had suffered severe injuries. Xu Ziran had only learned of the specifics from those who had survived.

But the problem was, the plan had fallen apart!

The Shrek Squad led by Asura hadn't been seen by anyone. After meeting the Array Master, both he and the entire Spirit Rhinoceros Business Association had put great emphasis on this collaboration. They had even given a high appraisal to the Array Master. And if Asura was dead, their point of contact was lost! The plan that was supposed to be foolproof had lapsed, and as the person in charge, Xu Ziran couldn't evade responsibility.

"Oh, isn't that Brother Xu? Why do you look so upset? Don't tell me you placed a heavy bet on the Bubble Squad? Hahaha," a somewhat raspy and unpleasant voice sounded next to Xu Ziran.

Without even looking back, Xu Ziran knew who had come—it was the Chief of Skyreach Business Association, backed by the Stone-Touching Soul-Stealing Spirit King.

The Skyreach Business Association and the Spirit Rhinoceros Business Association didn't have much of a conflict in their overall operations, as most of their business was conducted within the world of the Richen Empire Spirit Clan. The only place where conflict arose was, in fact, at the Ancestral Court.

In terms of status, Xu Ziran was no match for the Chief of the Skyreach Business Association, who was the head representative of their whole association in the Ancestral Court. In contrast, Xu Ziran was just in charge of a trade caravan; in the Spirit Rhinoceros Business Association at the Ancestral Court, he was more akin to a deputy. However, being the most visible representative of the Spirit Rhinoceros Business Association side, he was naturally recognized.
