Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Having the experience of Hell's Garden was, of course, a good choice for the one leading the team.

The team ahead had already started entering. Tang San and his temporary teammates followed, slowly moving forward.

This was Tang San's second visit here, and as he recalled everything he had seen in this place, his gaze grew colder.

Lights flickered, and a familiar aura descended once again. Tang San and his temporary teammates had entered Hell's Garden.

The moment he entered, Tang San immediately felt the change in luck of the place.

Last time he was here, his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye's cultivation base was limited and so was his perception. But this time was different; his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye had cultivated to the Ninth Stage. The Ninth Stage was a level only a Six-Tailed Sky Fox could attain. It was extremely difficult for the Heavenly Fox Clan to become deity-level because they were not good at fighting and had a hard time resisting lightning tribulations. They could only rely on their control of luck to contend. Therefore, in the Heavenly Fox Clan, there were very few powerful individuals beyond deity level, and reaching the Ninth Stage already made one a pillar of the community.

An endless sea of flowers appeared before them, and looking around, most were gentle warm-colored large flowers.

"Pay attention, from now on, do not touch any cold-colored flowers. The areas with warm-colored flowers are safe. However, every once in a while, the colors of the flowers will change, and when that happens, we must try to enter the areas with warm-colored flowers as much as possible." The transmission was very smooth, and Tang San's small team was teleported together.

Tang San wasn't very clear about the detailed rules of entering Hell's Garden from the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, but this wasn't very important to him. As long as he could enter, his goal had been partially achieved.

Tang San stood upright, discerning the directions.

"Let's go." The Bear Demon leading them gave a low shout and set off in one direction. "Remember, in Hell's Garden, our first priority is to avoid battle. We should reduce the chances of fighting as much as possible and let others slaughter each other. If by the time the last teleportation comes, half of the participants are dead, we will naturally be safe. There are also good things inside Hell's Garden; some flowers may bear fruit, and if encountered, we should not miss out. Such fruits can be sold for a lot of money when taken outside, but they are very rare. As the leader, if our team has such gains, after we leave, I want forty percent. I also want forty percent of all the prize money. I'm leading you out alive, so it's only right that I take a larger share. Any objections? If you're not afraid of death, you can also choose to act alone."

"I choose to act alone." Tang San didn't want to waste time with these temporary teammates and directly expressed his intention.

"What did you say?" The Bear Demon emitted a low growl, and suddenly, a ferocious aura enveloped Tang San.

Participating in Hell's Garden was done in teams, and losing a member undoubtedly weakened the team's overall strength.

The Bear Demon hadn't expected that someone would actually choose to act alone in such a dangerous place as Hell's Garden.

"Do you know that acting alone is no different from seeking death?" The Bear Demon took large strides towards Tang San.

Tang San was wearing a mask and had to look up at this over three-meter-tall figure.

The Bear Demon radiated intense bloodline energy fluctuations. It leaned slightly forward, and its large paw, like a wind-fan, reached straight towards Tang San's shoulder. But in the next instant, its paw was already frozen in the air.

No one saw clearly how Tang San made his move, but he had already grasped one of the sharp claws on the Bear Demon's paw.

The Bear Demon was momentarily stunned and instinctively tried to pin Tang San down, but to its horror, it found its claws were as if cast in copper and iron, completely immovable. The broad bear paw couldn't move in the slightest.

"Roar—" The Bear Demon let out an angry roar, and its other paw ferociously came crashing down, its body bursting with an orange-yellow glow in an instant.

Tang San's brows furrowed slightly as he suddenly shook the hand holding the claw.

Instantly, the Bear Demon's massive body, which had clearly activated its bloodline power, was shaken and flew up, only to be smashed heavily onto the ground in the next moment.

While the other Monster comrades were still in shock, Tang San's right foot had already fiercely stamped on the ground, and a flash of dark gold light vanished in an instant followed by a low rumbling sound, a huge shockwave flung the Bear Demon and the other three team members up into the air, and they were unconscious before they even landed.

War Stomp!

This was not the Behemoth giant beast's War Stomp, nor the Golden Mammoth's, but the Golden Body Variation's!

Tang San's terrifying Golden Body Variation bloodline nearly instantaneously flared up, rendering the four Ninth Stage Monster comrades on the scene unconscious.

Without giving them another glance, Tang San turned around, picked a direction, and leaped into the sky. On his forehead, a faint white halo expanded, releasing the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, disregarding the flowers of warm or cold colors, and heading straight for the distance.

Although the confrontation was brief, the space around his body was slightly twisted. While running, Tang San raised his right hand, emitting a faint distortion halo from his palm. A pagoda-like entity emerged from his palm, emitting gentle waves of distortion light that enveloped his body, suppressing the dissonant effects his body was exhibiting.

Time-space marker, after Tang San's long period of refinement, especially after merging with more Heavenly Fire Fine Iron under the continuous integration and nurturing by Seven-Colored Heavenly Flame Liquid, now it had begun to take shape. It took the form of a seven-layered, four-sided, octagonal pagoda. Tang San named it the Time-Space Lighthouse.

He was using the Time-Space Lighthouse's properties at that moment to suppress the surging energy within his body, preventing him from immediately drawing the lightning tribulation. At the same time, in Hell's Garden, it isolated his energy signature.

At this point, the Time-Space Lighthouse, with the powerful might of the time-space marker itself, plus the shaping under the guidance of the Seven-Colored Heavenly Flame Liquid by Tang San, had initially reached the level of a divine tool. Although it was only in its rudimentary form, it was already comparable to most of the divine tools in this world.

As he passed over the patches of flowers on the ground, whether warm or cold-colored, Tang San induced no reaction as he swept by. As if they could not sense his existence at all.

Under the protection of the Field of Fortune and Misfortune, he seemed to have completely merged into the world of Hell's Garden. He did not know where the Heaven Garden he was searching for was located, as he had lost his sense of direction the moment he stepped into Hell's Garden. But this did not hinder his search for his destination, as all he needed to do was follow the direction where cold-colored flowers were more numerous. The fewer the surrounding warm-colored flowers, the more accurate the direction. The closer to Heaven Garden, the more cold-colored flowers there would be, and near Heaven Garden itself, there would be only powerful cold-colored flowers. Therefore, all he needed to do was to continue searching in this pattern.

Compared to his cautious approach during his last visit, protected by the Time-Space Lighthouse, Tang San was flying much faster. As he flew, he silently sensed the energy fluctuations within Hell's Garden.

Due to the considerable enhancement of his divine consciousness, he could feel that the energy within Hell's Garden was fairly stable at that moment, perhaps also because this "team battle" had just begun, so the overall energy fluctuation of Hell's Garden was still steady, with neither the aura of fortune nor misfortune too pronounced.

As he flew further, the cold-colored flowers beneath gradually began to increase, and the warm-colored flowers gradually disappeared. Along with this, the aura around also began to change; a low, oppressive air of misfortune seemed to linger in every corner, even causing a slight drop in temperature.
