Chapter 320: Chapter 319: The Might of Misfortune
"This…"
Tang San spoke in a deep voice, "The Time Variation Seal of Senior Brother Gu Li and the Golden Peng Transformation of Sister Chengzi are already very eye-catching. The more opponents we beat, the more attention we will attract. Your Heavenly Fox Transformation is different from theirs. Among first-level bloodlines, if it were another bloodline, it might just attract attention without further consequences, but if your Heavenly Fox Transformation were discovered, you would probably be captured and sent straight to the Ancestral Court. So, no matter what, you cannot use the Heavenly Fox Transformation in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, understand?"
Looking at his serious expression, Du Bai deflated like a punctured rubber ball, his previous excitement significantly lessened, and he said with a bitter smile, "But I want to help everyone together! You don\'t know how painful it is for me to watch you all in crisis. I really hate that I can\'t help you guys."
Tang San shook his head and said, "No, you have always been helping us. The Power of Luck that you bestow upon us is constantly at work, constantly aiding all of us. Otherwise, our injuries might be more severe, or maybe someone would have died. Don\'t underestimate yourself; you\'re a member of the team, and a very important one at that."
"Really?" Du Bai immediately came back to life.
"Not really," Gu Li said irritably from the side, "Just at Sixth Stage, and you\'re full of yourself."
Du Bai arched an eyebrow, and a mischievous smile flashed at the corner of his mouth. A flicker of light behind him revealed the illusion of a Heavenly Fox, and the third fox tail suddenly turned black.
"What, what are you doing?" Gu Li exclaimed in surprise, instinctively about to unleash his Time Coagulation, but it was a step too late.
The black fox tail gently swayed, clearly taking precedence over Time Coagulation. After the tail moved, Du Bai\'s body then became rigid.
Gu Li immediately felt as though something unfortunate had happened to him.
His instincts told him to sit down cross-legged immediately. It\'s just misfortune, right? If I just sit still and do nothing, that should be fine, shouldn\'t it? Even if I don\'t cultivate, I can\'t just drop dead, can I?
As he was thinking, suddenly, something seemed to fall from the sky. Gu Li got a shock, released his Time Variation Seal instantly, and swung his Tail Hammer upwards.
With a \'plop\', a strong odor instantly spread out.
There was no powerful impact, but a mass of indescribable stuff burst open with the hit of the tail hammer, splattering all over Gu Li. It was clearly the droppings of some large bird.
"Damn it!" Gu Li yelled out and ran towards the lake.
"Hey, hey, we still need to drink that water," Cheng Zicheng couldn\'t help but shout.
Wu Bingji raised his hand, and a stream of lake water was drawn up to wash over Gu Li. But he had performed the Ice spirit change, not the Water Spirit Transformation. The temperature of the water he manipulated dropped rapidly.
Being washed by the icy water, Gu Li shuddered, "Du Bai, I\'ll fight you to the end." While saying this, he charged at Du Bai with a menacing look.
But at that moment, a vine suddenly appeared under his feet, and with a \'splat\', Gu Li, angry and shocked, tripped over it, face-planting into the ground.

Du Bai blinked, quickly surrounded himself with luck, and then hid behind Tang San.
Gu Li had barely climbed up when he was about to pounce toward Du Bai again; however, he suddenly felt the flow of his bloodline within him become somewhat sluggish. He staggered, and the misfortune on him still had not been lifted. He hesitated for a moment, ultimately not daring to approach any further.
"You brat, hurry up and lift it off me." He was shivering from the cold water, and the bird droppings on his body had not been completely cleaned off, making him look as wretched as could be.
Du Bai proudly peeked out from behind Tang San\'s shoulder, "Now you know the consequences of offending the Child of Luck."
Gu Li\'s teeth itched with rage, but he really didn\'t dare to act now, genuinely fearing he would encounter some unpleasant event.
Watching the scene before him, Wu Bingji was actually shocked. Du Bai\'s control over misfortune was even stronger than he had imagined. Gu Li also possessed a Second Stage bloodline, and his cultivation base was even one stage higher than Du Bai\'s, but under the Misfortune Control, he seemed to have almost no power to resist. What if this were on the battlefield?
As Gu Li\'s cultivation base improved, the powerful effects of the Heavenly Fox Transformation began to gradually show. Just as Tang San said, Du Bai was slowly becoming a very important member of the team.
With a flash of white light, Gu Li only felt as if some bad substance had left his body, which allowed him to finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Huh, that\'s strange." Du Bai walked out from behind Tang San, with a contemplative expression on his face.
"Xiao Tang, how did you know? The things you were talking about just now, it seems like I can feel some of it," Du Bai murmured.
"What did you feel?" Tang San asked.
Du Bai said, "I seem to feel that I can control a special power. After I gave Gu Li a bit of misfortune, it seems that this special power I control has increased, and it feels like it\'s indeed luck. There seems to be something like a cloud in my Sea of Spirit that was increasing just now. Luck Cloud?"
Tang San\'s eyebrows raised slightly, "Is luck becoming substantial?"
Du Bai nodded, "It seems so, so after reaching the Sixth Stage, it seems not only the control over misfortune has increased, but the luck itself has also undergone some changes. The balance between misfortune and luck that you talked about seems to really exist. That is to say, the more misfortune I release, the more these Luck Clouds seem to grow, and I don\'t know if using these Luck Clouds to apply the power of luck will be stronger than before. I need to try more."
Gu Li\'s mouth twitched, "You\'d better stay away, don\'t test it on us."
With a sly laugh, Du Bai said, "That will depend on how you treat your brother here."
After some thought, Tang San said, "Brother Du Bai, when experimenting, you can start from a few aspects. One is to see if the effects of luck applied through these Luck Clouds will be different than before. Also, if this luck can target specific events. Another is to see if there is any trace during the application process, or if it\'s formless. The last point is to see if you can hide the glow effect of the Three Tailed Sky Fox during the application, making it invisible."
"Alright, I\'ll first contemplate it myself. It\'s different now, it seems that having three tails is the real qualitative change. The change is much more significant than last time."
Tang San nodded slightly, "The conditions of the Heavenly Fox Transformation may be different from other Demon God Transformations. When you have three, six, nine tails, those are the real moments of substantial change. However, you still need to be careful. The stronger your ability to change luck, the more likely it is of backfiring, and once it does, it can be terrifying. Remember not to let your Luck Cloud be exhausted. Otherwise, there could be big trouble."
"Understood," Du Bai nodded seriously.
Hearing Du Bai\'s explanation, Tang San was also somewhat eager inside. Du Bai\'s breakthrough meant that he too would soon be able to break through to the Sixth Stage Three Tail Realm. He would also go and personally experience the intricacies within.
