"That is indeed another level, already touching the threshold of godhood. Even your spatial control at that time had a hint of divinity. Otherwise, how could you withstand the combined impact of the Fire Dragon and the Scorching Sunflower, two top-tier fire-attribute bloodlines working in harmony?"
"Godhood, you say?" Mei Gongzi was stunned for a moment, as she hadn't thought in that direction before.
"Indeed. Let me say this again: your opponents both had a first-tier bloodline, and both were fire-attribute ones. Their combination is not as simple as one plus one equals two. Being able to restrain such opponents with spatial power means there was a significant level difference between you. That's the only explanation. This Asura is really not simple! Even now, I can't figure out his true abilities," the Peacock Great Demon King said, frowning.
"He has already sworn a blood oath, don't you believe him? I also found him mysterious before, but he has never shown any malice toward me and he has always been helping me. There won't be any problems. Please don't make things difficult for him," Mei Gongzi said.
The Peacock Great Demon King said in a deep voice, "Knowing yourself and your enemy is very important. Yes, the blood oath has a strong binding effect, but it doesn't mean everything. My biggest concern is that he might be sent by another Emperor to deliberately get close to you. If that's the case, then it's troublesome."
"He is human!" Mei Gongzi retorted.
The Peacock Great Demon King said, "I am concerned precisely because he is human. How can a human cultivate to his level? Is it possible without the guidance of a powerful figure? To be honest, I’m even left wondering what kind of mighty being can produce such a powerful student.
"Your Redemption Society clearly isn’t capable of producing such an outstanding human. Therefore, I have serious doubts about his origins. When you are with him, try to find out more about his background. Until we know where he comes from, I can't be at ease."
Mei Gongzi looked at her father, frowned slightly, and nodded gently.
Regarding Asura's origins, how could she not be curious? But as they spent more time together, Asura had been completely open with her, going as far as to swear a blood oath, not to mention that divine technique she had taught her. This naturally dispelled her doubts about his good intentions. The only problem was that she had never seen Asura's true face. For some reason, he didn't want her to see his real appearance. This was a thorn that always remained in her heart.
"Alright, go rest. No matter what, today, you touched the god level. You need to properly meditate on your insights; they will greatly help you in future breakthroughs. Meanwhile, I will keep an eye on Asura's situation. Whatever it is, we can deal with it after this competition. You must strive to get a good ranking in either the individual or double competitions. Both, if possible. The strength you have shown has already attracted attention, and we can no longer turn back. The best way to gain the Ancestral Court's recognition is to make them wary of you. When they believe you might become an Emperor in the future, we will have some leverage. As for other matters, you don’t need to worry; I’ll handle everything for you."

Tang San’s internal energy circulated, flowing smoothly and rapidly within his body. Now that his cultivation had reached the ninth order, everything about his internal energy had improved tremendously. Originally, the ninth level was the pinnacle of the Mysterious Heaven Technique. It wasn't until he became a god that he developed it to an even higher level.
The balanced and peaceful energy of the Mysterious Heaven Technique gradually calmed him down and brought his state to perfection. In his dantian, each imprint was stable in its position, radiating a bright glow.
Without using the yin-yang energy, Tang San first activated the Polar Luck Domain of his Discerning Eye of Heaven.
The cultivation room instantly turned black and white, the mystical changes in fortune causing black and white lights to flicker around him.
The most powerful aspect of the Polar Luck Domain lay in giving good fortune to oneself and misfortune to others. If it was powered by divine energy, then mere control of fortune could allow him to defeat an opponent without doing anything else; they’d probably trip against their own feet and punch themselves in the face if he so desired.
The leader of the Ice Maiden clan, Huang Bingbing, was far beyond his level, and yet he was able to suppress her for a short time using this powerful domain.
The effects on his cultivation were also quite remarkable. Without the Polar Luck Domain, the fusion of yin-yang energy wouldn't have been possible.
With the blessing of fortune, Tang San's luck was at its peak. Only then did he cautiously activate the Wind Dragon imprint stored within his dantian, slowly bringing it toward the energy vortex.
Once it touched the vortex, the Wind Dragon Transformation imprint was naturally drawn into it, moving slowly toward an empty position. However, Tang San's will immediately took control.
The radiance of the Lion-Tiger Transformation burst forth, suddenly transforming into a ball of platinum light that enveloped the blue-gold light of the Wind Dragon imprint. Then, with a flash of silver light from the Peacock Transformation, it was instantly moved to the position of the Golden Roc imprint.
Under Tang San's stimulation, the Golden Roc imprint shone with golden light, directly swallowing the Wind Dragon imprint while it was restrained by the Lion-Tiger Transformation.
The goal was to fuse these two imprints, but Tang San aimed for the Golden Roc Transformation to devour the Wind Dragon Transformation, not the other way around.
This was why he was so cautious while performing the fusion today.
He had carefully considered this decision. Although the Wind Dragon Transformation was a first-order bloodline, it wasn't particularly powerful among the dragon race; since it wasn't an overwhelmingly dominant force, the devouring process would be relatively less challenging.
The characteristics of the dragon race were just too distinct. If he just happened to pop out a draconic transformation, it would be noticed right away. Since he had already exposed the Golden Roc Transformation, using it to mask the Wind Dragon Transformation's aura was the best choice. Furthermore, he had mastered the Golden Roc Transformation's abilities thoroughly. If the Wind Dragon Transformation caused the traits of the Golden Roc Transformation to disappear, it would bring him quite a bit of trouble. Additionally, there was the matter of Cheng Zicheng. He needed to help her cultivate in the future, so losing the essence of the Golden Roc Transformation would be problematic.
Therefore, after thorough consideration, Tang San decided to use the method of "the snake devouring the elephant[1]" to devour the Wind Dragon imprint.
Relying solely on the Golden Roc imprint wouldn't be possible, but with the support of numerous first-tier bloodlines, the impossible could become possible.
Sensing the threat, the Wind Dragon imprint glowed with blue light, starting to struggle violently. However, with the Lion-Tiger Golden Force present, there was no escape. This force had both repelling and devouring attributes, so it was perfect for both defense and containment. At this moment, the Lion-Tiger imprint was directly devouring the energy of the Wind Dragon imprint.
Once filtered by the Lion-Tiger Golden Force, the devoured energy became much more obedient. In this state, the Golden Roc imprint began to digest and absorb the energy and characteristics of the Wind Dragon imprint.
The spatial power of the Peacock Demons assisted from the side. When the Wind Dragon imprint struggled too fiercely and the Lion-Tiger Transformation couldn't control it, the Peacock Transformation would step in to seal it temporarily, allowing the Lion Tiger Golden Force to adjust before continuing to devour.
This was equivalent to two first-tier bloodlines and one second-tier bloodline ganging up on another first-tier bloodline. Additionally, the powerful Polar Luck Domain also belonged to a first-tier bloodline, and the fortune it produced was naturally aligned with Tang San’s will.
Thus, the entire fusion process went even more smoothly than Tang San had anticipated. The Wind Dragon imprint kept struggling but could never break free from the restraint of the two first-tier imprints. The Peacock Transformation constrained it, while the Lion-Tiger Transformation devoured it, their coordination remarkably seamless.
Tang San had initially prepared to use yin-yang energy to suppress the Wind Dragon imprint if necessary, but it seemed that wouldn't be needed now.
1. This originates from the idiom "A snake swallowing an elephant," which describes excessive greed. It traces back to the Classic of Mountains and Seas, in which it’s mentioned a Ba snake that devours elephants and it takes three years to digest the bones of an elephant. ?
