Chapter 194: Chapter 193 The Embarrassing Golden Lion Dog
The Great Peacock Demon of the past once ranked fifth among the Demon Emperors. It is evident just how formidable the true bloodline power of the Peacock Demon Clan is.
The Monster and Fairy Clans can reach the level of the Great Demon Emperor, which is above the twelfth rank, and at most there have been twelve individuals at any one time. They are the ones who stand at the peak of the twelfth rank.
These twelve Great Demon Emperors and Heavenly Spirit Emperors jointly rule over the Ancestral Court and manage the entire Demon Monster Land through the Ancestral Court.
Currently within the Ancestral Court, out of the twelve sovereigns, seven are from the Monster race and five are from the Spirit Monster race. The ranking mentioned here includes both races combined, not just within the Monster race.
Pretty Girl was only thirteen years old when she awoke the Peacock Golden Crown. What does that mean? Even though she carries a human bloodline, that doesn\'t matter! In the last generation of the Peacock Demon Clan, only the current Peacock Demon King managed to awaken the Peacock Golden Crown. Otherwise, he would not have been sent to a distant place like Jiali City. And for some unknown reason, the Peacock Demon King has always been unable to step into the threshold of the twelfth rank. Otherwise, once he became a Great Demon Emperor, the status of the Peacock Demon Clan would not be what it is now.
The biggest problem for the Peacock Demon Clan is the difficulty of awakening the Peacock Golden Crown. But once awakened, they become invincible powerhouses.
Even as an eleventh rank Peacock Demon King who serves as the Master of the Main City, he sufficiently validates this point. It is said that the eleventh rank Peacock Demon King can contend with most of the Demon Emperors.
In the next generation of the Peacock Demon Clan, Wang Yan is known to be one with potential for awakening the Golden Crown. This is also why Song Junhou chose to give way when he faced Wang Yan previously.
As the eldest legitimate son of the Peacock Demon King, Wang Yan undoubtedly received a tilt in family resources; almost every precious herb and treasure has been used on him, and even the blood of clan members has been used for bloodline infusion to enhance his bloodline intensity. Yet up to now, Wang Yan has not fully awakened the Peacock Golden Crown.
Who could have imagined that Pretty Girl, a human, a half-demon of the Peacock Demon Clan with mixed blood, would have already awakened the Peacock Golden Crown? How unbelievable is this?
But Pretty Girl proved her strength to them that it\'s true. She is the only Gold Crown Prince of the Peacock Demon Clan today.
Song Junhou, who had long coveted her, also heard she might become one of the candidates for the prince. That\'s why he had always been particularly affable towards her. But when it came time to choose, he still picked the more likely candidate, Wang Yan. But now, things have taken quite an awkward turn...
Moreover, it was Pretty Girl who eventually killed the formidable enemy, rescuing everyone. They all fully understand now why Pretty Girl was unscathed in the camp when Wang Yan and others were not.
Faced with the Gold Crown Prince, who from her own clan would dare to harm her? That would be absolute suicide.
If a member of the Monster race with an awakened Golden Crown dies, the Crown will transform into a space gate that instantly transports the Peacock Demon King. This is the innate ability of the Peacock Clan. Whoever kills Pretty Girl will face an enraged Peacock Demon King, a being who can rival Demon Emperors.
Not to mention, Pretty Girl\'s own strength is also extremely formidable, instantly slaying four eighth rank Winged Tigers!
Thus, their way of addressing her has changed. Pretty Girl has become Big Sister Pretty.
"Captain, what should we do?" the Bear Demon looked at Song Junhou.
Song Junhou had already recovered by then and, with a twitch of his mouth, said, "Since Big Sister Pretty told us to split the loot, then let\'s split it. Don\'t call me captain anymore. With Big Sister Pretty here, I don\'t have that qualification. From now on, Big Sister Pretty is the captain of our squad."
"Right." The other team members nodded in agreement. In the world of Monsters, strength is always the most important.
Redemption Academy.
After dinner, Tang San went back to his room to rest.
The night outside was beautiful, with the moon shining amidst sparse stars. He had originally planned on returning to Redemption Academy to access his training sanctuary.
But he eventually decided to stay at the academy to stabilize his cultivation base first.
The part of the bloodline power from the Ninth-stage Winged Tiger King that he had absorbed was somewhat restless inside him.
The bloodline power of Demon Beasts was far less pure than that of Monsters, and the bloodline power of the deceased Winged Tiger King at the Ninth Stage had greatly diminished. Otherwise, Tang San, who was not even at the Seventh Stage, could not have absorbed it.
After being filtered through the Mysterious Heaven Method, only the purest part of the bloodline power was retained.
Silently, he circulated the Mysterious Heaven Method, continuing to purify this external energy.
The Ninth Stage was the strongest level beneath the rank of God. Although the Winged Tiger was a Demon Beast, reaching this stage was not an easy feat. It was somewhat difficult for the Mysterious Heaven Skill to handle the energy from a higher tier. Moreover, he could not fully devour it now because his foundation was not solid enough. Tang San\'s body, not yet fully developed, struggled to bear it.
He circulated the Mysterious Heaven Method for nine full cycles, and his internal state gradually stabilized. Among the six marks, the Wind Protective Energy Mark at the end shimmered with a strong cyan light. This was the Sixth-stage Peak, an indicator that he could enter the Seventh Stage at any moment. However, until Tang San\'s cultivation base broke through to the Seventh Stage, it could not break this limit.
His control over the wind element became stronger. He gradually compressed the remaining part of the Winged Tiger King\'s bloodline power, using the Wind Tiger Mark as a guide, and retained it.
In his mind, he recalled the powerful strength displayed by Pretty Girl before. Space overlay, Space Cutting, Space Convergence. She seemed to have mastered some of the most basic abilities of the Space Mysteries. Although she had not reached a higher level and was still some distance from the true Space Mysteries, she was only thirteen! Compared to his previous life, she seemed more talented in this one.
Such bloodline power was indeed powerful, but Tang San did not wish to acquire it. With his current age and physical condition, it was difficult enough to endure breaking through to the Seventh Stage. He already had a Heavenly Fox Eye at first-level bloodline, and merging another might be too much for his body to bear. He would consider this matter later.
For him, the greatest benefit was to continuously enhance the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye. The features of the Heavenly Fox Eye could better assist him. Most importantly, it would boost his Spiritual Power.
His current intensity of Spiritual Power was comparable to Zhang Haoxuan\'s. The stronger the Spiritual Power, the more it would aid in nurturing his divine consciousness. This bit of divine consciousness was fundamental. Once it recovered to a certain degree, he would be able to reclaim some of his abilities from his previous life.
That day, when faced with the deadly threat from Pretty Girl, he had activated his divine consciousness and felt it had become much more stable. Even though he had tapped into his divine consciousness once, it did not seem to result in a complete collapse of the recovered part.
This discovery was no doubt a cause for great joy for Tang San, meaning that his divine consciousness had recovered a bit. Although the recovery was not significant, the trend of gradual improvement was a very good sign.
His goal was to stabilize his current state, improve his physical strength, and then continue to advance his cultivation level. He aimed to reach the Seventh Stage soon. The Seventh Stage was the threshold to the higher-tier categories. Once he reached the higher tiers, the abilities he could use would become stronger as well.
Zhang Haoxuan had already left the Academy town to sell his finds in another city. Before leaving, he told Tang San that when he returned, he would give most of the resources to Tang San for his cultivation. By then, he could go to the best auction in Jiali City to find some good items suitable for himself.
Of course, Zhang Haoxuan said this not knowing that the school store of Jiali Academy had already opened its doors to Tang San...
