Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

"Of course, that's possible," Tang San interrupted, understanding the Great Elder's worry. After all, the Lion Tiger Tribe had once faced many hardships and had only recently resolved the issue of bloodline conflict. It was perfectly normal for the hardworking Great Elder to be concerned.

"Golden Valley will always be the home of the Lion Tiger Tribe."

"Thank you, my lord," the Great Elder was about to bow down to Tang San but was stopped by him.

"Great Elder, I'll be staying here for the next while. One reason is to heal my injuries, and the other is to enhance the defensive power of our Golden Valley."

With the growth of the Golden Tree, the life force within the valley had become increasingly strong. Although the Illusion Array still concealed the area from being discovered and prevented the leakage of life force, the vegetation around the valley was still affected. When Tang San had returned previously, he had noticed that many plants were thriving far more than those farther away. If someone observant were to notice this, it could lead to big trouble.

Now, he was no longer at the same level of cultivation as when he first set up the Illusion Array. Both in strength and resources, he was now much more abundant. It was necessary to rearrange some formations here: one to enlarge the range of the Golden Valley, and the other to better guard against the escape of life force and to better isolate everything inside.

Next, he needed to assimilate what he had gained from the Ancestral Court, which would also involve a strong energy fluctuation that needed better isolation capability.

"No problem. If there is anything we of the Lion Tiger Tribe can do to aid you, just say the word. The young ones in our tribe all see you as an idol. They would be willing to follow you," said the Elder.

"Good," Tang San replied without demur. Indeed, some tasks did require additional manpower.

Over the next full week, he was busy arranging the Formation. Using the resources he had brought back, he expanded and strengthened the Illusion Array around Golden Valley, increasing it to a total of eighty-one arrays, forming a Linked Array. This ensured that even if a being at the Great Demon Emperor level were to fly overhead, they wouldn't detect anything below. Of course, this was assuming they did not directly enter into the Illusion Array.

He also enhanced the capabilities of the defense and Spirit Gathering Array, providing more energy to the Golden Tree to help it grow.

After a week, the Bloodline Brands within Tang San's body had basically recovered. Only his divine consciousness had not yet returned to its optimal state.

He was not in a hurry, though, as despite the decline, his divine consciousness was recovering and improving at a faster rate than before. Having completed the arrangements for the Golden Valley, it was now time to thoroughly assimilate the treasures he had acquired.

The feeling of helplessness when he was being hunted by the Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor was something Tang San never wanted to face again. What he would encounter in the future would all be existences at this level, so he must prepare to be able to resist such powerful adversaries.

The Time Crocodile Essence Blood and Golden Winged Roc Essence Blood he had obtained from the Ancestral Court had already been given to Gu Li and Cheng Zicheng. When he came back last time, he had used the Fox Tail Relic to help the Fox Race Girls enhance their bloodlines. With the purification of their bloodlines, their strengths had significantly improved. Even the weakest among them now had a Fifth Stage cultivation, and Red One had already reached Seventh Stage. It had to be said that on Demon Monster Land, the inherent strength of a bloodline was the best proof of a tribe's power.

More importantly, the Fox Tail Relic also increased their cultivation limits, which was very significant as it implied that they could ascend to even higher levels, and the problem of their diluted bloodlines was completely solved.

Besides these acquisitions, the most important item was the Time-space marker. It was not just a prototype of a divine tool, but possibly a super divine weapon. Even before refining it, Tang San had already borrowed its power more than once.

Apart from the Time-space marker, there was also the enormous Black Crow Stone. Tang San had already thought of how to use this.

Moreover, with the increase in his cultivation, the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold of the Earth Shattering Hammer could also be re-refined. Whether for crafting the Black Crow Stone or the Time-space marker, not having a suitable tool simply wouldn't do.

After careful consideration, Tang San decided to first reforge the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold.

The refining location was chosen within a valley, where Tang San had the Fox Race Girls guard the perimeter. He first erected several Isolation Formations within the area to block sound and energy before beginning his smelting process.

The predominant characteristic of Heavenly Fire Fine Gold is that it cannot be smelted with external force; its intense high-temperature can burn all materials. To refine it, you must use Spiritual Power to hammer it and, preferably, divine consciousness to smelt it to fully unleash its true power.

The Earth Shattering Hammer was originally just a crude shape without having been refined. Tang San's previous cultivation level was insufficient, and he hadn't attempted to refine it, only using Heavenly Fire Fine Gold to purify his Spiritual Power.

But now his divine consciousness had improved significantly, and his divine consciousness grid had also evolved, which enabled him to refine the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold.

The Earth Shattering Hammer floated silently in front of Tang San. Due to the Isolation Formation, the temperature inside the cave rose noticeably.

Tang San enveloped the Earth Shattering Hammer with his Spiritual Power, silently sensing its changes.

Heavenly Fire Fine Gold is the most powerful metal with fire attribute and is inherently very active. That fierce and proudly untameable energy fluctuation could even scorch divine consciousness.

Because Tang San had previously led it many times using his Spiritual Power, there was a relatively close connection between the Earth Shattering Hammer and him, making it less resistant to his Spiritual Power.

A faint smile appeared on Tang San's face, while purple light flickered in his eyes. His Spiritual Power, enhanced through the Purple Demon Eyes, directly wrapped around the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold.

The Heavenly Fire Fine Gold trembled slightly, and then the intense heat burst forth. Indeed, only Spiritual Power could refine it, but that depended on the strength of the Spiritual Power. The Heavenly Fire Fine Gold itself could also ignite Spiritual Power and even use it as nourishment for itself.

Tang San, unruffled, concealed a trace of divine consciousness within the Spiritual Power and suddenly injected it into the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold.

Suddenly, the Earth Shattering Hammer violently shuddered, and in the next instant, it began to tremble fiercely.

That bit of divine consciousness penetrating its essence was akin to controlling it. How could it be willing to comply? The fierce flames exploded in an instant.

An unusual scene unfolded. As the flames burst out, they turned into red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, flashing continuously. Each color change raised the temperature a notch, mercilessly scorching inward, attempting to incinerate Tang San's divine consciousness.

If his divine consciousness hadn't evolved due to the influence of the golden trident, then Tang San might have indeed found it unbearable. But now, his divine consciousness was different, tinged with an aura of the God King level.

No matter how fiercely it burned, Tang San's divine consciousness remained unshakably firm, and during such scorching, the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold began to change volume. Impurities turned to ashes, and the intense seven-colored flame kept transforming.

Tang San silently felt the fluctuation of the flame; his divine consciousness was affected too, but under the scorching of the seven-colored flame, that bit of divine consciousness became brighter and brighter. It even felt like his divine consciousness was being purified.

Previously, with insufficient cultivation base, only his Spiritual Power was purified, but now he even felt this effect on his divine consciousness. Tang San wasn't alarmed but pleased, immediately injecting more divine consciousness into the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold, allowing it to continue burning.

The volume of the divine consciousness was shrinking, yet it became more brilliantly luminous. The seven-colored flames of the Heavenly Fire Fine Gold also grew increasingly bright in response to the combustion of the divine consciousness.
