Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

"Boom!" Another massive thunderbolt struck, sending Zhang Haoxuan tumbling down to barely stabilize his body above the sea surface. Yet, a feeling of emptiness began to emerge within him. Was his accumulation still not enough?

Zhang Haoxuan\'s brows furrowed deeply. But just then, to his surprise, he noticed that the sky seemed to brighten a bit, indicating that the lightning tribulation might be weakening.

Tang San\'s voice also came at this moment, "Teacher, if you get struck again, you can fall into the sea, and I will help you replenish your life force."

Zhang Haoxuan couldn\'t speak at this time, but hearing this, he felt greatly relieved.

Indeed, when the next thunderbolt fell, it was noticeably smaller than before.

With a "boom," Zhang Haoxuan was struck from the sky and plunged directly into the sea. The clouds of tribulation in the sky also dispersed a bit more with this.

Falling into the sea, Zhang Haoxuan, due to his high temperature, immediately caused a large expanse of mist to rise. However, in the next instant, he felt a vast life energy from the sea surge into his body, rapidly replenishing his deficits. Although he inherently felt a repulsion towards the water element, the influx of this life energy still filled his empty body with a sense of comfort.

"Hmm, I must be about to succeed," Zhang Haoxuan naturally felt in high spirits and greatly soothed at this point.

But just at the next moment, he suddenly tensed up. An ominous premonition suddenly appeared in his mind. Given that he was not yet fully a god, but could be considered a demigod, his spiritual power had already begun exhibiting some characteristics of divine consciousness, and his sense of impending danger had naturally strengthened considerably.

What\'s going on? Is there a problem?

At this time, mist rose before his eyes, so he couldn\'t see the outside situation. However, Tang San was dumbfounded.

When Zhang Haoxuan fell into the sea, it was naturally Tang San who had directed the life energy from the sea to supplement his teacher.

But in the instant he was providing the supplement, as if sensing his presence, an invisible will swept over.

Tang San almost instantly closed off his divine consciousness, letting his body sink deep into the sea like a free-falling object. But in the sky, the clouds of tribulation that were about to disperse once again became solid, and seemed to have doubled in size from before.

And Zhang Haoxuan, sensing the crisis and bursting out from the mist, had just flown out of the sea when he saw three colossal blood-red thunders, thick as water barrels, coming straight at him.

The previous lightning tribulations, weren\'t they one by one? Yet this time, it turned into a chain of lightning tribulations, and even more potent at that.

An entity sinking towards the depths of the sea was silently murmuring in its heart, Teacher, I\'m sorry!

Tang San did indeed mean well, using his divine consciousness to guide the life force in the ocean to replenish Zhang Haoxuan\'s life force, but the problem was, his divine consciousness stirred during Zhang Haoxuan\'s tribulation process. The planar power\'s sensitivity to this region became particularly pronounced, promptly detecting his "heretical" presence. Although Tang San sealed his divine consciousness at the first opportunity, the might from the plane still descended instantly.

Faced with three colossal bolts of lightning, Zhang Haoxuan almost without a moment\'s hesitation plunged deeper into the sea once again. Surging flames rose to challenge, attempting to block the descent of the three bolts of thunder.

A streak of white light surged from beneath the water at that moment, shining upon him and causing the three enormous bolts of lightning to seem to veer off, not striking him directly. Despite this, Zhang Haoxuan was still blasted into the water by the shockwaves. In an instant, a large area of seawater vaporized, and the terrifying thunder created a depression in the sea over an area of thousands of square meters.

Zhang Haoxuan\'s brain felt completely blank at that moment, his entire being\'s spirit and emotions as if they had utterly disappeared in that instant.

Unbeknownst to him, a vine quietly coiled around his ankle, pulling him sideways into the seawater as the thunder\'s might furiously raged.

Zhang Haoxuan\'s tribulation had in fact already been completed. The subsequent three massive bolts of lightning were not aimed at him, but at the sensed "heretics." The heretical presence was completely eradicated under the barrage of lightning, and the clouds of tribulation in the sky, after lingering for a while, silently dissipated.

Tang San\'s mouth twitched as he looked at the unconscious Zhang Haoxuan before him, feeling somewhat speechless.

When he was using divine consciousness to manipulate the life force in the ocean to help Zhang Haoxuan recover, he was also testing the plane\'s intent, albeit with just a hint of divine consciousness. Clearly, however, the plane has a stronger rejection of him, an outsider, than he had anticipated.

If this is how it turned out with just a hint of divine consciousness revealed, what about when he himself faces a tribulation? Wouldn\'t the entire planar power target him? That\'s a big problem!

If this trouble can\'t be resolved, Ninth Stage would be his end. And most importantly, as his strength reaches a certain level, he would naturally absorb Origin Energy to replenish himself, and his cultivation base would silently and slowly elevate. Unless he disables himself, there will always come a day when he must face a Heavenly Tribulation. That\'s the real troubling matter.

This probe had made it clear to Tang San just how strong the plane\'s rejection of his kind as an outsider is, making it virtually impossible to transcend tribulation under such circumstances. He must consider carefully what to do next.

However, as someone who was once a Godking and understood the universe\'s secrets, Tang San could somewhat understand why the Falan Planet\'s plane master would reject him so.

Putting aside whether the plane master acts instinctively or possesses the ability to think, at the simplest level, Falan Planet itself is extremely rich in resources and vast, otherwise it couldn\'t possibly have birthed beings like the Great Demon Emperor and the Heavenly Spirit Emperor, who are comparable to level 1 gods. With such abundant resources from a single planet, at least among the planets that Tang San had seen, this one is second to none.

At this level of energy, Falan Planet\'s future development will inevitably evolve towards the level of the divine world. This is also why it rejects Tang San. A planet with such abundant resources is too easy to covet by outsiders. Once controlled by a powerful external being, the planar power, when drawn upon, will result in a Divine Realm not for this plane but for another\'s gain.

In simpler terms, Falan Planet is like a juicy piece of fat in the universe, which, if discovered by powerful planes, especially the Divine Realm, would likely stir desires to devour it. This is also an important reason for the strong rejection of outsiders. Tang San even suspects that the reason the plane cultivates so many top-tier powerhouses is to counter an invasion from outsiders when it comes.
