Tang San felt a heat in his eyes as his magnified vision seemed to connect with the purple qi instantly. An unusual amount of purple qi flowed into his eyes, making them feel almost scorchingly hot. He quickly closed his eyes, focusing all his mental power to control the large amount of purple qi being drawn in.
It was a peculiar change, and it made his entire being feel warm.
While experiencing the transformation of his Purple Demon Eyes, he was pondering about what had happened. This was clearly the result of merging the Falcon Eye and the Discerning Heart's Gaze. The integration of these two bloodline imprints seemed to have significantly enhanced his eyesight.
What if I use this ability to cultivate my Purple Demon Eyes? No… that wouldn't do. Regular cultivation had already brought in several times the usual amount of purple qi in an instant. This allowed him to make rapid progress in his cultivation, which was obviously a good thing. However, deliberately using the skill to draw in purple qi could bring in an excessive amount, risking his eyesight.
Having lived three lifetimes, Tang San was not rash. After some thought, he made his decision.
The benefits of absorbing bloodline imprints were more significant than he had imagined! Not only would they provide him with specific abilities, but they could also strengthen his body and enhance his own natural abilities comprehensively. Right now, he could feel his strength increasing. This was due to the Ironhide Shield of the rhino demon.
This world, which had seemed to despise him until now, was finally revealing some of its magical aspects to him.
After absorbing the purple qi, Tang San felt a slight improvement in his Purple Demon Eyes, equivalent to about five or six days of regular cultivation.
The sun had already risen, and the sunlight, which would have been harsh to most people, seemed gentle to Tang San. The auspicious purple qi passed, and thus ended that one moment he had each day for cultivating his eyesight.
Since he couldn't use his newly acquired ability to cultivate his Purple Demon Eyes, what would it be like to use them normally?Thinking this, Tang San concentrated, closed his eyes, and activated the emerald-green bloodline imprint.
With the touch of the green light, Tang San felt a portion of his energy, almost one-tenth, being consumed instantly. In the next instant, every single bit of the world in his perception became clearer.
The chirping of insects and birds sounded as if they were right beside him. Though his eyes were closed, everything around him seemed to become three-dimensional. There seemed to be something in the space around him resonating with his perception. Subconsciously, he sensed the two aetherhorn coins on the table. The subtle aura changes from the coins seemed to merge with his perception.
Just then, Tang San slowly opened his eyes. Instantly, two palm-length beams of purple light shot out from the depths of his eyes. And in that instant, when the purple light shone, Tang San felt a revolutionary change in his vision.
He saw a world of colors.
The sky was still the same blue sky as before. However, within this sky floated innumerable motes of light of different colors.
Those green dots were the power of the wind element. Red was fire, blue was water, orange was light, and white? That seemed to be the pure spiritual power of heaven and earth.[1]
Under his gaze, the world seemed to unravel, everything breaking down into its most fundamental elements.
With a thought, the wind came!
The wind element energy in his sight swiftly converged towards him. Almost instinctively, Tang San extended his hand, and the wind element naturally gathered in his palm, forming a slowly swirling vortex.
He could see the elements now, and not only using his eyes—he could actually sense all of them.
Combining the powers of Discerning Heart's Gaze and Falcon Eye, this Discerning Eye was genuinely extraordinary! It enhanced his Purple Demon Eyes, unleashing greater power when fused.
In that instant, Tang San realized that among the four abilities he possessed, the most important one wasn't the Wind Blade that he used for long-range attacks, the Leopard Flash for speed, or the Ironhide Shield for defense. Without a single doubt, it was the Discerning Eye, the new combination between the Falcon Eye and the Discerning Heart's Gaze.[2]
The Discerning Eye lasted for thirty seconds. When its effect faded, Tang San felt a stinging in his eyes, and tears involuntarily started flowing.
Such a marvelous ability! The Discerning Eye was a power he needed to enhance further. Its utility was immense even now, and in the future, as he advanced further, its impact would undoubtedly be even more significant.
Just then, someone knocked on the door. As Tang San turned, he saw Wang Yanfeng pushing the door open.
Wang Yanfeng, seeing him, couldn't help but be startled. "Why are you crying?"
"Uh… nothing. I was just dazzled by the sunlight." Tang San quickly wiped away his tears.
Wang Yanfeng scrutinized him, feeling as if Tang San had undergone some change as if something about him was different—especially his gaze, which, despite the tear streaks on his cheeks, seemed somehow deeper.
"We need to get ready to leave. Your Aunt Gui just went out to gather information. After yesterday's Collision Competition, the Flash Leopard clan and the Wind Wolf clan broke into a fight. It was only quelled when a large number of Kali guards arrived. Both clans are searching for that little Wind Wolf vassal. We must leave Kali City as soon as possible. Even though you were masked, your stature is too conspicuous."
Tang San nodded. His actions yesterday had really been somewhat impulsive. Although they had brought him great benefits, they could also bring significant trouble. Leaving quickly was the best choice.
But at that moment, something crossed his mind, and he instinctively looked out the window in a particular direction.
He wanted to see her one last time before leaving, but now it seemed impossible.
Wait for me, Mei Gongzi. I will return as soon as possible.
***
Kali City Central district.
Mei Gongzi had just finished adding ingredients to dozens of cups of milk tea, ready to brew it. Suddenly, her steps paused, her elegant brow furrowing slightly.
"What's wrong, Xiao Mei?" Su Qin looked at her daughter with concern in her eyes.
Mei Gongzi gently shook her head. "Nothing, Mom, just suddenly felt a bit of palpitation for some reason."
Su Qin approached her and gently stroked her long hair, "If you're not feeling well, rest. I can handle things."
"I'm fine, really fine." Mei Gongzi quickly shook her head, giving her mother a sweet smile before returning to her bustling tasks.
The shop was constantly bustling with demons coming to buy milk tea, and it was selling hundreds of cups daily. After covering costs, the profits were quite substantial.
In the evening, a girl working in the shop took over Mei Gongzi's tasks. “Sister Mei, you go rest. Leave the rest to me."
Mei Gongzi turned and gave her a sweet smile. "Xiao Xue, thanks for the help."
Xiao Xue winked at her and subtly motioned with her chin towards the back.
Mei Gongzi seemed to catch on to something, and she nodded slightly. As she turned around, her entire presence underwent a curious transformation…
