Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 398: Domain

He couldn\'t care about anything else now!

Tang San\'s eyes were resolute as he prepared to activate his divine consciousness. At this moment, only his divine consciousness could restore his mobility. As for the consequences, he couldn\'t worry about them now.

However, at that moment, Crystalline suddenly let out a scream. "Daddy—"

Immediately, a layer of crystal-clear light burst from her body. Tang San felt the black and white energies swirling inside him suddenly spin violently.

As they spun, the two colors also became transparent. His body felt lighter, and the next moment, he saw himself rushing out of the Heaven Garden and into Hell.

A layer of transparent light seemed to envelop him, causing the cool-colored flowers in the Hell Garden to not react to him.

Tang San hurriedly looked down at Crystalline. Her hair had returned to its silver color, but she seemed exhausted and fell into a deep sleep in his arms.

In the next moment, an even stranger scene occurred. Crystalline\'s delicate body curled up and began to turn transparent. Before Tang San could even try to sense her condition, she transformed into a stream of light and merged into Tang San\'s chest!

Tang San felt as if a cold stream entered his body, and he was surprised to find that one of the empty imprint slots now had a crystal-like imprint. It quietly stayed at the edge of his energy vortex, without competing for a higher position. It conveyed to Tang San the thought that Crystalline was asleep, and was now resting inside his body.

What was going on? What kind of being was this little girl hatched from the crystal egg? Tang San could even feel that the sliver of divine consciousness he had been prepared to use earlier now had a slight connection with this strange crystal imprint that had just appeared into his body.

This was not a situation he wanted to see. His greatest secret lay in his divine consciousness, and Crystalline was the offspring of the top-ranked Crystal Demon Emperor. But now, he had no way to resolve this. He tried to manipulate it but to no effect. Moreover, Crystalline called him daddy and had just helped him at a critical moment. How could he harm this little girl?

As it turned out, the changes within Tang San’s body were not limited to just this one imprint. Tang San focused inward, examining himself. The previously turbulent black and white energies were now spinning rapidly but in a regular manner, constantly shrinking, and finally formed a yin-yang halo. It appeared behind the Discerning Eye of Heaven imprint, as if that imprint had gained a shadow.

It seemed that there was something peculiar going on with the Discerning Eye of Heaven, and Tang San knew it was likely because the main component of this hybrid imprint was the Celestial Fox Transformation.

And it was precisely because of this swirling yin-yang halo that the cool-colored flowers around him no longer affected him.

There was no time to think further; leaving this place was the most important thing right now. Tang San activated his Golden Roc wings and soared up, flying rapidly toward the path he had come.

The devouring aura from the Hell Garden had vanished, at least as far as Tang San was concerned. This place seemed to have become like the outside world. Even when he drew in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the part that contained misfortune would automatically merge into that black-and-white energy flow, leaving only pure spiritual energy for his body to absorb.

The pure spiritual energy nourished Tang San\'s body, keeping him in peak condition in spite of him flying at breakneck speed.

As he flew, he looked back at the Heaven Garden, a strange gleam flashing in his eyes.

"I’ll be back!"

Yes, he had to come back here in the future. Perhaps... no, certainly, this place would allow him to break through to the god level.

Tang San\'s flying speed naturally increased without needing to assimilate the cool-colored flowers, and with less burden on him. He seemed to have become a part of this world.

As he flew, he injected his spiritual will into his Discerning Eye of Heaven, feeling the characteristics and changes of that black-and-white energy flow.

When he tried to guide the energy flow, he could feel two distinct changes within it.

When he focused on the black energy flow, Tang San found that the cool-colored flowers below him would grow wildly, as if he poured a massive amount of fertilizer around them, becoming even more potent.

When he guided the white energy flow, an even stranger scene appeared. The cool-colored flowers around him instantly changed color from cold to warm, generating gentle life energy and lucky fluctuations.

The range of his influence could reach about a hundred meters in diameter.

This was clearly...

A domain!

Yes, Tang San was sure that through a series of coincidences and with Crystalline\'s help, he had somehow endowed the Discerning Eye of Heaven imprint with a domain-type ability.

However, he didn\'t know if this domain could only be used within the Hell Garden or would work in the outside world.

More strangely, his domain would mutate when he first activated the black energy flow and then the dual-color flow. It didn\'t expand in range but caused the originally cool-colored flowers to turn black, filling the surroundings with an aura of misfortune and negative energy. However, when he first guided the white energy flow and then the dual-color flow, everything around him would transform as if entering the Heaven Garden, with all the flowers turning white, brimming with vibrant life and the energy of fortune.

After several attempts, Tang San noticed that the black and white halo would dim slightly, clearly indicating that it had consumed its energy. However, within the Hell Garden, he seemed able to directly absorb the power from the surroundings to replenish the halo.

It took approximately ten minutes to recover after releasing the cool-colored or warm-colored flower domain, but about half an hour was needed to recover after releasing the black Hell Garden domain or the white Heaven Garden domain. The recovery speed significantly increased when he activated the Celestial Fox Transformation during this process.

If he could use this domain in the outside world, it would be a tremendous help! He just didn\'t know what it would be like outside.

This was indeed an unexpected boon.

Tang San continued to test his newly acquired domain while flying forward rapidly.

Two hours later, he finally saw a field of warm-colored flowers. Since the Hell Garden no longer hindered him, he fully extended his spiritual power to search for his companions\' whereabouts.

As he had predicted, the other four members of the Shrek Squad hadn\'t gone far. Though they had retreated a bit due to the decrease in warm-colored flowers, they were still not far from where they had initially separated.

Sensing his companions\' presence, Tang San quickly retracted his Golden Roc wings and gently landed.

Wu Bingji and the other three were filled with anxiety at this moment. Tang San had been gone for a long time now. When the singing began, the areas with warm-colored flowers started to decrease significantly, and there was still no news from Tang San. Half a day had passed, and they were still far from the exit, with no sign of Tang San returning.

However, none of the four suggested leaving. Instead, they silently waited here for Tang San\'s return.

Suddenly, the singing began once more.

"Hell and Heaven both exist in the human world!"

Wu Bingji suddenly stood up. He could sense that the flowers around them were beginning to change. Some kind of energy seemed to emanate from the warm flowers, causing them to turn bluish.

"Let\'s go! Let’s find the next resting point," he immediately said.
