Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San Chapter 185: Looking From The Sidelines

Chapter 185: Looking From The Sidelines

The seventh-order Ironback Ape and the seventh-order Cat Demon started confronting the two seventh-order Winged Tigers.

The Ironback Ape also reverted to its original form, its stature swelling to over six meters. It discarded its iron rod, instead using its incredibly tough body as both weapon and shield to withstand the Wind Astral attacks and go head-to-head with the seventh-order Winged Tiger.

The Cat Demon displayed astonishing speed, rapidly darting through the air. The sixth-order Bear Demon blocked the front, coordinating with the Cat Demon in the attack.

The Shadow Bird continuously launched sneak attacks from the shadows, leaving multiple wounds on the two seventh-order Winged Tigers.

Mei Gongzi calmly wielded her Peacock Plume. Each thrust created a series of afterimages, targeting the eyes of the seventh-order Winged Tigers, greatly distracting them.

If Wu Bingji and his team could have seen the situation on the battlefield, they would surely have been astonished. The Beauty and the Beasts team quickly gained the upper hand, even whilst facing one eighth-order and two seventh-order Winged Tigers.

And what about Tang San at this moment? He was at a distance!

Cheng Zicheng, pale-faced, followed closely by his side. The two rapid sprints had greatly exhausted her, especially with the formidable Winged Tiger in pursuit. She feared being torn apart in mid-air by the Winged Tigers’ claws.

Tang San gazed into the distance, observing the situation on the battlefield. When he saw a blast of Wind Astral explode, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

He had never underestimated the combat strength of the Beauty and the Beasts team.

Mei Gongzi had the confidence to emerge unscathed even when facing five eighth-order Peacock Demons. So, how could one single eighth-order Winged Tiger possibly pose a threat to her? And the Golden Lion Dog, being a descendant of the golden family, definitely had some trump cards.

Therefore, Tang San never believed an eighth-order Winged Tiger could threaten this team. Otherwise, Kali Academy wouldn’t have let them undertake missions without an accompanying teacher.

With that in mind, the most significant opponent he reserved for the Golden Lion Dog was not at the eighth order.

If in the previous battles against the Winged Tigers, the Beauty and the Beast team had been more than capable of suppressing their opponents, now they were going all out. Continuous combat had significantly drained their bloodline power. In addition, they had begun to sense something amiss with this situation.

How could they not consider the possibility of enemies lurking in the shadows, deliberately drawing the Winged Tigers to attack them? An intangible shadow loomed, casting a heavy feeling in their hearts.

At this time, Song Junhou fully demonstrated the formidable strength of a descendant of a golden bloodline clan.

One of the best traits of demons with such a bloodline was that they had much tougher meridians, which allowed them to use their power at a higher intensity and for a longer time than demons with inferior bloodlines. The power of the unleashed Golden Holy Fire was formidable, and even the eighth-order Winged Tiger didn’t dare to let the Golden Holy Fire touch it, so it maintained its Wind Astral at maximum intensity.

“What should we do now?” Cheng Zicheng quietly asked Tang San.

Tang San said, “Senior sister, your task is completed. Leave the rest to me. Circle around them and meet with the eldest senior brother. Be ready to assist me later.”

“Okay.” Even Cheng Zicheng didn’t know when they had all started to have such blind trust in Tang San. It seemed like no matter what he did, there would be no issues, and every decision he made was correct. Follow the latest novels 𝒐𝒏 n𝒐/velbin(.)com

Cheng Zicheng quickly left, while Tang San stayed in place, silently observing the distant battle.

Then, he took out a black gold crossbow bolt and carefully sliced open his left index finger.

A drop of blood was squeezed out, and Tang San’s eyes lit up. The bloodline energy in his body surged as the Mysterious Heaven Technique rapidly circulated. His spiritual power was infused into the blood, enveloping it with concentrated wind elemental energy. His eyes instantly turned cyan, and with a flash of light, the Wind Astral carried the blood drop towards the Beauty and the Beast team in the distance.

Imbued with that trace of Tang San’s spiritual power, the drop of blood took on a faint golden hue. It was not ordinary blood, but a drop of Tang San’s blood essence, containing the core power of his bloodline. Even though it was just a drop, his face turned slightly pale once it was squeezed out, indicating that he was feeling some weakness.

The Wind Astral carrying this drop of blood essence reached above where the Beauty and the Beast team and the three Winged Tigers were fighting. There, the light shattered, and the trace of spiritual power Tang San had placed in the drop of blood essence instantly erupted.

The drop exploded instantly, releasing a dense fluctuation of bloodline aura.

The Beauty and the Beast team and the three Winged Tigers fighting below all noticed the explosion. However, due to Tang San’s Wind Astral, the Winged Tigers didn’t feel the bloodline aura. At the same time, the Beauty and the Beasts team was startled, instinctively thinking another Winged Tiger was approaching. However, the power of the Wind Astral wasn’t all that great, so they didn’t pay much attention to it.

After this, Tang San rapidly concealed his presence, restricting his aura while activating the Discerning Eye of Heaven to mask the elemental fluctuations around him. At the same time, he activated his sixth bloodline imprint, the Blue Silver Emperor, mimicking the aura of plants. Moving through the forest and covered by surrounding vegetation, he seemed to vanish into thin air as he approached.

Tang San had always acted purposefully and meticulously in his three lifetimes before taking action. He would not take risks lightly unless in exceptional circumstances.

Neither the Winged Tigers nor the Beauty and the Beasts team were opponents the Redemption Society team could handle. But his strategy of spurring on the tiger so he could swallow the wolf did not involve handling either party; the entire point of it was to reap the benefits. And now, the climax was about to unfold.

Song Junhou’s face was solemn, and the massive shadow of the Golden Lion flickered behind him. As he deployed the full power of his golden bloodline, his strength was immense. The eighth-order Winged Tiger was increasingly suppressed, its Wind Astral weakening under the scorching of the Golden Holy Fire, and it was starting to falter.

The situation of the other two seventh-order Winged Tigers was not good either. Under the other Beauty and Beasts team members’ joint attack, they also sustained multiple injuries.

While fighting, Song Junhou pondered in his heart, wondering about this hidden enemy.

There was no doubt that this hidden enemy was not stronger than them; otherwise, they would have attacked directly without such complications. However, while the Winged Tigers were not a threat to them individually, the fact that they kept coming still posed a significant problem. This hidden enemy seemed adept at speed—the golden bird demon that had flown ahead earlier seemed to be the enemy, or at least one of them. Were they other students from the academy? It probably wasn’t the Peacock Demon Clan, as their strength didn’t warrant such secrecy.

In any case, they would have to deal with the Winged Tigers in front of them first.

At the same time, Song Junhou started to wonder—once these three were dealt with, what would the enemy do next?

No…I don’t want to find out. Once we’re done with these three, we are out of here.

The Golden Holy Fire surged again, and Song Junhou’s entire body shimmered with golden light. He suddenly shouted, “Condense!”

The Golden Holy Fire around him instantly condensed into vast lion claws. They were as sharp as swords, and they whistled through the air as they fiercely fell upon the Winged Tiger.

At the same time, his bloodline aura also surged tremendously. The eighth-order Winged Tiger noticeably stiffened because of the bloodline suppression, and the next instant, the sharp lion claws were already in front of it.

Boom—

The eighth-order Winged Tiger was struck and sent flying. For the first time, its Wind Astral shield was fully shattered. Bone-deep claw marks turned it bloodied, and the accompanying Holy Fire Golden Astral scorched its body, causing the Winged Tiger to emit a heart-wrenching roar.

However, it didn’t continue to fight. Instead, it suddenly flapped its wings and turned to flee.
