Chapter 19

Tang San quietly returned to his residence, where Wang Zhong was still cultivating on the bed. Tang San could sense that Wang Zhong was deeply immersed in his Wind Wolf Transformation cultivation.

Tang San also sat on the bed, quickly mobilizing the Xuantian Gong to circulate. The part of the Wind Wolf bloodline he had absorbed into his body began to circulate along with the Xuantian Gong.

For him, today was an important experiment. This experiment would determine whether he could continue to break through and find a method to do so. If it was feasible, it would be very beneficial for his future cultivation. The experiment had two parts: one was whether he could break through his bottleneck by absorbing the Wind Wolf's bloodline power, and the other was whether the third-stage Wind Wolf, whose bloodline power he had absorbed, could recover its bloodline power, or if it would lose its power completely.

Both aspects were crucial, as they would affect his future cultivation path.

He had long been proficient in the Xuantian Gong. After absorbing the third-stage Wind Wolf's bloodline power, he clearly felt the bottleneck of the Xuantian Gong loosen. However, when he tried to circulate the Xuantian Gong again, he found that the feeling was fading. The Xuantian Gong, which had been somewhat loosened, seemed to be suppressed by some invisible pressure and still failed to break through to the next level.

This made Tang San frown. If it was different from what he had imagined, it would be a significant blow to him. Being restricted to his current level of cultivation would be a big problem. He needed to find another way out.

He did not become impatient and continued to silently circulate the Xuantian Gong, gradually assimilating the absorbed bloodline power.

The Xuantian Gong became more condensed, although it did not break through to a higher level, its total volume seemed to have become more solid. At the same time, Tang San noticed that the Wind Wolf imprint within him had become stronger. In simple terms, the wind blades he could condense had become larger. When he used the Xuantian Gong to activate this imprint, his aura would exhibit some changes of the Wind Wolf, and now these changes seemed to be more pronounced.

Initially, after absorbing Zhu Jiaxin's Leopard Flash and the Wind Wolf's bloodline power, the Leopard Flash imprint was clearly stronger than the Wind Wolf's, so its effects were better. It basically allowed him to use it within ten meters, with excellent results. The wind blades condensed from the Wind Wolf's bloodline had some power, but it was not very strong.

However, after absorbing the third-stage Wind Wolf's bloodline power today, the imprint of the wind blade had clearly become stronger. When he circulated the Xuantian Gong to activate the imprint, not only did the Wind Wolf's aura become stronger, but the wind blade also became significantly larger and more powerful. It had basically reached the power level of a third-stage Wind Wolf.

Silently absorbing and feeling the changes within himself, Tang San gradually formed his own judgment.

He was now almost certain that the Xuantian Gong could indeed be strengthened by absorbing the bloodline power of demon beasts. In this process of absorption, the absorbed bloodline power would transform into part of the Xuantian Gong, helping to increase his cultivation speed. At the same time, the characteristics of the bloodline would form imprints that would remain, allowing him to transform and manifest the abilities represented by these bloodline imprints through the Xuantian Gong.

This was a rather unique transformation, and it should be a unique transformation of his Xuantian Gong. In other words, he could form imprints by absorbing the bloodline power of different demon beasts, allowing him to possess the abilities of these demon beasts. This was very interesting.

His previous guess was probably correct. To break through his bottleneck and avoid the suppression of this plane, absorbing the bloodline power of demon beasts was likely a necessary path. He had felt the loosening of the bottleneck before, but the main reason for the failure to break through was probably that the strength of the absorbed energy was not enough.

That was a third-stage Wind Wolf, whose bloodline energy was not as strong as his third-stage peak Xuantian Gong. Therefore, to continue breaking through to a higher level, he probably needed to absorb the bloodline power of a fourth-stage Wind Wolf. By absorbing the bloodline power of a higher-level demon beast, his aura would momentarily resemble that of a more powerful demon beast, and when the suppression of the plane loosened, he could break through the bottleneck. This should allow him to reach the fourth stage. Moreover, he suspected that from the third-stage bottleneck onwards, future breakthroughs would have to follow this method to avoid the suppression of the plane.

If this was the case, then he had a direction and goal for his cultivation. The next step was to find a fourth-stage Wind Wolf and attempt to absorb its bloodline power.

Fourth-stage Wind Wolf bloodlines were not common in Wind Wolf Town, but he had one right here! Wang Yanfeng was a fourth-stage Wind Wolf. If not for this, he would not be able to live in such a house as a vassal. Among the vassals of Wind Wolf Town, he was probably the strongest.

The next experiment was to observe whether the third-stage Wind Wolf whose bloodline power he had absorbed could recover its bloodline power. If it could recover, Tang San could start preparing to find a fourth-stage Wind Wolf. This would be less likely to be noticed. If the Wind Wolf could not recover, Tang San would have to lie low for a while. The sudden loss of bloodline power would likely raise suspicions among the Wind Wolf clan. One case might be overlooked, but if another fourth-stage Wind Wolf also had the same problem, even a fool would know something was wrong.

With these judgments, Tang San's mindset stabilized, and he continued to silently cultivate the Xuantian Gong. Although he could not break through the bottleneck now, with his cultivation experience, accumulating strength was always good. When the time came to break through, it would be smooth sailing. The more solid the foundation, the easier future cultivation would be.

Over the next few days, Tang San and the other four people learned and cultivated with Wang Yanfeng every day. Every morning, he taught them knowledge, and in the afternoon, he taught them the cultivation and transformation of the Wind Wolf Transformation.

The five of them led very fulfilling lives, a stark contrast to their previous lives as slaves.

Ling Muxue's mood was always a bit off, but she was particularly serious during cultivation and learning.

After a few days of learning, everyone's talents became apparent. Among the three Wang brothers, Wang Chao, who had the highest awakening level, had the poorest talent, while Wang Zhong and Wang Xiaolei had better talents. They were slightly inferior to Ling Muxue.

After a few days of guidance and cultivation in the Wind Wolf Transformation, Ling Muxue could now manifest a certain degree of the Wind Wolf Transformation, although she could not yet condense wind blades. Her progress was so rapid that even Wang Yanfeng praised her.

As for Tang San, he was different from the others. When Wang Yanfeng saw that the wind blades Tang San could release had clearly become larger, he was very surprised. Although the wind blades had become stronger, Tang San did not manifest the Wind Wolf Transformation at all, not even a single wolf hair. This made him very curious, but he had no way to explain it. However, he would teach Tang San some additional techniques for controlling wind blades.

Over these few days, Tang San's experiment was completed. Every night, he would quietly go out to find the Wind Wolf he had absorbed before. He did not find it on the first day, nor on the second day. On the third day, he spotted the Wind Wolf from a distance.

Compared to before he was absorbed, the Wind Wolf was clearly weaker. However, after investigation, Tang San found that its bloodline power had partially recovered and was gradually recovering. The first two days it did not appear because it was resting at home to recover its bloodline power.

This meant that the bloodline power he had absorbed could be recovered through rest. It just needed some time. For the Wind Wolf, it was like recovering from an illness through rest.
