Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 517: Divine Pill

Drawing in the spiritual energy of the cultivation room, Tang San let it envelop his body before taking out the box given to him by the Peacock Great Demon King.

The surface of the box emitted a faint silver glow and spatial fluctuations, indicating that the contents were in an isolated space that prevented any aura from leaking out.

Tang San took a deep breath to calm the pain within his body, then carefully opened the box, dispelling the spatial power.

Immediately, a cold aura surged out, causing the temperature in the entire cultivation room to drop significantly. Tang San slowly opened the lid of the box, revealing two crystalline, snow-white pills inside. They were the size of a walnut and emitted a refreshing, cool fragrance.

They looked more like gemstones, white in color with a faint mist swirling inside. Despite his extensive knowledge of pharmacology, Tang San couldn't determine what these pills were made of. Clearly, they were concocted from plants unique to this world.

Tang San activated the Discerning Eye of Heaven. He could see a faint mist swirling around, but under the careful observation of fate, he found nothing amiss. Clearly, these pills would bring him no harm.

He picked up one pill and placed it in his mouth. Immediately, he shivered as an extremely cold stream flowed down his throat and spread throughout his body.

Tang San felt as if his body had frozen in that instant; he even felt his spiritual power slowing down.

He seemed to turn into an ice sculpture at that moment. However, in the next instant, a bit of heat ignited from deep within his dantian, where his bloodline imprints were, spreading throughout his body. Wherever the heat passed, the ice melted. His entire body seemed rejuvenated, igniting with warmth that gradually turned into a comforting heat.

At that moment, the blood flow in his body surged like a mighty river, and his broken bones rapidly mended. His still-displaced internal organs quickly returned to their positions under the vigorous flow of blood and energy. His severe injuries vanished at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his overall state improved significantly.

The bloodline imprints in his dantian emitted dazzling light, as if being thoroughly cleansed by a special power that quietly refined each bloodline imprint.

Tang San's recently advanced ninth-order cultivation also quickly stabilized. His blood and energy were purified, and even his sea of consciousness began to boil, with his divine consciousness fluctuating unsteadily as more spiritual power transformed into divine consciousness. He felt a moment of indescribable clarity, as if everything in the world made sense.

Tang San was astonished. Although he knew that whatever the Peacock Great Demon King gave him had to be something good, he hadn't expected it to be this good.

What kind of extraordinary natural treasure could provide such immense recovery? His severe injuries were almost healing instantly. This was incredible. No... It couldn't even be described as a mere natural treasure; it was definitely at the level of a divine treasure.

At the same time, he could also sense that this pill had great effects for those below god-level, but its effects would diminish significantly for those above god-level. Right now, it was perfectly suitable for him.

The value of this thing was definitely comparable to that of an ordinary divine item. The Peacock Demoin clan truly had profound foundations.

After three cycles of breathing exercises, the power of the medicine gradually stabilized. Tang San's injuries had completely healed, and his bones continued to mend. At this rate, he would be fully recovered in at most two hours.

Tang San didn't dare to relax. Such a precious elixir couldn't be wasted in the slightest. He continued to circulate his internal energy, absorbing the medicinal power and gradually reaching a state of forgetting both self and surroundings. He slowly entered a deep state of meditation.

At this moment, a faint light flashed in his dantian and a small figure quietly appeared in the cultivation room.

She appeared to be three or four years old, with a face as delicate as a carved jade, her chubby cheeks looking exceptionally cute. Her eyes were crystal-clear, as if they could reflect one's soul.

As soon as she appeared, her little nose twitched constantly, as if she were a little puppy sniffing something good. Soon, her eyes lit up as she saw the silver box on the ground.

She raised her hand to open the box, revealing the remaining pill inside. She blinked her large eyes, giggled, and grabbed the pill with both hands, stuffing it into her mouth.

The pill was quite large for her, and her cheeks puffed up like a little rodent’s cheek pouches as soon as she got it in.

She seemed to struggle a bit as she slowly swallowed the pill.

At that moment, her entire skin became crystalline and transparent. Even more astonishing, her three-year-old petite body slowly stretched out, extending her arms and legs. In a short time, she had grown to look five or six years old.[1]

Her eyes showed a trace of confusion as she looked at her hands and then at Tang San beside her. Gradually, a glimmer of understanding seemed to appear deep within her eyes.

She turned around, carefully moved closer to Tang San, and gave him a peck on the cheek. Then, with a flash of light, she transformed into a crystal light and disappeared into Tang San's dantian.

The night passed without incident. When Tang San awoke from his cultivation, the sky outside was already bright.

He stretched his body vigorously, and a series of cracking sounds rumbled from his joints. Energy surged within him, making him feel indescribably comfortable. It felt as if, in that moment, his entire being had become transparent.

All his injuries had completely disappeared, and his cultivation had advanced further. More importantly, the bloodline imprints in his dantian had become significantly clearer, and their relationship seemed more harmonious.

"Huh," Tang San noticed that the crystal imprint representing Crystalline, which had always been dormant in his dantian, was now much brighter, emitting a radiant glow. The Blue Silver Emperor imprint surrounded by the yin-yang vortex seemed overshadowed by its brilliance.

The other imprints that Tang San hadn't yet merged into his energy vortex seemed to have been purified as well.

These were all valuable imprints! The Wind Dragon imprint, the Behemoth imprint, and the Golden Mammoth imprint—three first-tier bloodlines!

If Tang San could absorb all three first-tier bloodlines, his strength would undoubtedly take another qualitative leap. However, the arrangement and absorption process posed a problem. He needed sufficient time and physical endurance, first and foremost.

His father-in-law’s gift was truly extraordinary! Unfortunately, his current cultivation was far from enough; otherwise, he could consider saving him.

The Peacock Great Demon King had burned his blood essence for good. Such a problem could only be resolved if Tang San could become a God King again and be able to use divine energy. Though the pill from yesterday was excellent, it didn't have such capabilities.

Damn, that pill was gre—hey, where's the other one?!

The silver box in front of him was open, and the second pill had vanished without a trace.

1. In chapter 397, it’s specified that she already looks to be around six after she eats the entire eggshell. ☜
