Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 386: Complete Approval

Chapter 386: Complete Approval

"Yes," Asura responded respectfully, quickly manipulating the array disc with his hands. Immediately, strange light patterns appeared on the surface of the disc. These patterns generated complex energy fluctuations that even Xu Ziran couldn't fully comprehend.

Next, Asura suddenly rotated the disc and pressed it against his chest. Instantly, silver light radiated from the disc, and a blue-silver glint appeared in Asura's eyes.

With his hands spread to his sides, thick vines surged from his palms, rushing toward Xu Ziran to wrap around him.

Startled, Xu Ziran quickly retreated, but the vines instantly formed a large cage. Each vine rapidly sprouted sharp thorns, exuding a powerful bloodline aura.

Asura made a grasping motion with his right hand, and the vines in his palm fused into a long spear, emitting an extremely sharp aura.

"It's really a Nymph Transformation!"

The Aetherhorn Deers’ combat abilities were primarily in the realm of spiritual power, and in terms of observation, they were top-notch. The Discerning Heart’s Gaze allowed Xu Ziran to be certain that this was indeed a bloodline power.

And the bloodline power Asura had previously demonstrated was clearly a demon’s bloodline! This meant Master Lou's words were true—he had indeed managed to fuse bloodline power into an array disc!

This was too shocking for Xu Ziran to even speak. At the same time, he realized their assessment of Master Lou had been too low—far too low!

This can only be described as a divine skill. This array disc is equivalent to having a second bloodline! And this was just a third-tier bloodline array disc. What if they can really produce higher-level ones?

Xu Ziran didn't even dare to imagine it.

Such an array disc could only be described as priceless!

His voice trembled as he asked Master Lou, "Master Lou, the array disc you created—what order of bloodline power can it emulate? And what is the highest tier it can reach?"

Master Lou said calmly, "The bloodline tier it uses is the bloodline tier it has. As for the order, theoretically, I can make an array disc of the Demon Emperor level. However, I don't have the blood of a Demon Emperor, and my strength isn't enough to use it anyway. As it stands, I can probably attempt a tenth-order disc, but it would require a lot of materials."

Xu Ziran gasped. "Master Lou, I can't guarantee anything right now. This matter is too significant; I must report it to my superiors. Please wait for my response, alright?"

Xu Ziran's mind was a bit chaotic at this moment, and things were clearly beyond his pay grade. He was well aware that such a bloodline array disc might be merely "precious" to other races, but for the Aetherhorn Deers, who weren’t adept at combat, it was nothing short of a qualitative leap! An absolute transformation!

Master Lou pointed at Asura and said, "Contact him; he knows how to find me. That's it for today. Also, this Blue Silver Emperor array disc is my gift to Asura; don’t even think about it. I hear he's participating in the Ancestral Court's team battle; this is for his protection. If anything happens to him, all our previous agreements are null and void. That will be all for now."

With that, he stood up and walked out.

Xu Ziran quickly followed, respectfully saying, "Rest assured, Master Lou. Regarding this team battle in the Ancestral Court, the arena master has already made plans to ensure Brother Asura's safe return. Don't worry; our agreement will be upheld. By the way, are you planning to sell these bloodline array discs?"

Master Lou stopped and turned to look at him almost with pity. "Do you think these things can be sold just like that? Let me tell you, this is the only one that was a complete success. There are too few materials to work with, and I can't keep researching on my own. Why do you think I want to cooperate with you? Do you think I can’t make money otherwise? I just want a good environment and materials for my research."

"Yes, yes, you're right. It's truly our honor," Xu Ziran nodded repeatedly.

"Right, then that's it."

Master Lou strode away.

Asura whispered to Xu Ziran, "Captain Xu, I'll see the master off. I'll be back shortly."

After speaking, he quickly followed Master Lou outside and entered the carriage.

Xu Ziran escorted them to the door, respectfully watching their carriage gradually disappear. Then he waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Follow them and see where they settle."

Inside the carriage, Zhang Haoxuan removed the mask from his face, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. "This feels pretty good."

This was all part of the plan he and Tang San had discussed.

After careful consideration, Tang San had decided to cooperate with the Aetherhorn Merchant Association. One reason was that the association's loyalty lay with the Peacock Demon lineage, meaning some of the money they earned would eventually go to the Peacock Demons. If Mei Gongzi could become the chief of the Peacock Demon clan, all this would naturally belong to her.

Another reason was that as one of the largest merchant organizations on the continent, the Aetherhorn Merchant Association's channels would undoubtedly be able to find many of the things Tang San needed.

Of course, the so-called bloodline array disc was fake. Tang San could in fact make one if needed, but what he had told Xu Ziran was entirely true: it would be extremely difficult to produce and it would require a large amount of resources.

There was no need for now; he needed to study it further.

The primary purpose was to motivate the Aetherhorn Merchant Association to work harder to find various rare bloodlines for them, especially the ones Tang San needed the most.

If they could obtain these things, it would greatly benefit the entire Redemption Society.

Master Lou thus appropriately displayed his powerful array disc crafting abilities to intimidate Xu Ziran, ensuring that the entire Aetherhorn Merchant Association would hold him in as high esteem as possible.

Asura’s role as their representative naturally became more critical.

When he encountered danger, the Aetherhorn Merchant Association would undoubtedly help him for the sake of this potentially lucrative deal. It was a win-win situation.

"Master, you acted well. Your proficiency in making array discs has improved greatly," Tang San said with a smile.

Zhang Haoxuan replied, "Having divine consciousness sure makes a difference! Everything feels so natural. Alright, you should arrange your team battle now. I'll take my leave first."

"Okay."

Zhang Haoxuan took out a teleportation disc. With a flash of light, he vanished from the carriage without a trace.

Tang San didn't rush back immediately. Instead, he carefully reviewed his conversation with Xu Ziran to ensure he hadn't missed anything. Only then did he instruct the carriage to turn around and head back to the Aetherhorn Merchant Association.

The people tailing him naturally achieved nothing; with the teleportation disc, how could Zhang Haoxuan possibly be tracked?

Thus, when Xu Ziran saw Asura again, his subordinates reported that two people got into the carriage, no one got off midway, and only Asura returned.

"Captain Xu, I’m back," Asura said as he entered the shop and found Xu Ziran again.

Xu Ziran smiled and said, "Brother Asura, if you don't mind, you can call me Brother Xu. I didn't expect you to actually bring the master here. I want to thank you on behalf of the Aetherhorn Merchant Association."

Asura smiled and said, "It was what I promised the arena master. And I was indeed lucky to have found him. Master Lou isn't very talkative; he said that if you have any matters for him in the future, just let me know, and he'll contact me."

He didn't say he would contact the master but that the master would contact him, clearly indicating to Xu Ziran that he couldn’t just bother Master Lou whenever he wanted.
