Chapter 383: More Cultivation

Everyone set off again the next morning, but Tang San did not follow this time.

According to the previous plan, Gu Li and Du Bai\'s destinations remained unchanged, while Wu Bingji was to head to the palace of the Universe-Flooding Endless Demon Emperor. Cheng Zicheng was to go to the Undying Demon Emperor’s palace to experience the pressure of the phoenix, the king of all birds.

Tang San had already experienced it for her the day before. Though it was the Crystal Demon Emperor\'s simulation, it was likely extremely similar or even identical to the real Undying Demon Emperor\'s power. The terrifying impact of that bloodline suppression had left a lasting impression on Tang San. However, he couldn\'t say it outright and could only silently pray for Cheng Zicheng, hoping she would gain more benefits than setbacks from this bloodline suppression.

Tang San himself did not go out. He already had the tokens from the three palaces, including the Crystal Palace and the Celestial Fox Palace, the top two among the demon races. These three tokens were enough to deal with the upcoming challenges. Moreover, he had other matters to attend to. After the trial at the Crystal Palace, he developed a deeper respect for these Demon Emperors and Nymph Emperors.

At the same time, Tang San also realized that racial differences didn\'t seem to matter as much at the level of the Demon Emperors. At least in these three royal palaces, he hadn\'t encountered any unfair treatment, much less racial discrimination or anything like that. Nor had he been prevented from climbing the mountains or charged extra because he was human. Clearly, at the level of the Demon Emperors, these powerful beings valued ability more than anything else.

What difference did it make if he was human? Compared to the other Demons and Nymph Emperors, he was far too weak to pose any threat to their existence. Unless he could also ascend to the level of a Demon Emperor; then, perhaps they would regard him more highly.

After sending off his companions, Tang San activated his communicator to try to contact Zhang Haoxuan.

"Master, are you there?"

Soon, Zhang Haoxuan\'s voice came through.

—I\'m here. How are things going on your end?

Tang San said, "Things are going well. I have obtained tokens from three emperor palaces. The others are still hard at work cultivating. Climbing the palaces has great cultivation effects, and everyone finds different benefits."

—What? You\'ve already obtained tokens from three palaces?!

On the other end, Zhang Haoxuan\'s voice changed after hearing Tang San\'s words.

Palace tokens were not easy to obtain. Tang San spoke as if it was effortless, but securing tokens from three palaces in three days was absolutely unbelievable.

Different palaces focused on different bloodline powers. Not only that, but in order to acquire a token, one had to earn significant recognition during the climb. Not everyone who reaches the summit received a token; how they climbed it was more important.

Tang San obtaining tokens from three palaces in such a short time was something Zhang Haoxuan had never heard of. Having palace tokens meant the palaces recognized and protected him. When necessary, presenting the token would make anyone think twice before acting against him.

"Master, are things going well on your end?" Tang San was worried about Zhang Haoxuan\'s cardiac health, so he didn\'t mention that the three palaces included the Crystal Palace and the Celestial Fox Palace.

—Everything is fine here, nothing to worry about. You should have seen their faces when they saw I\'d really broken through. In our Redemption Society, god-level power is already top-tier. With my strength added, and since I\'m seen as an array master who can sell arrays to fund the organization, you can imagine my importance. They wouldn\'t dare mistreat me. I suspect my position will change even if they don\'t make me a Purple Class member outright. But I\'ve already told them I must return to Kali City.

Here, he paused for a moment.

—Of course, if you decide to stay in the Ancestral Court... I\'ll stay here with you. It\'s your decision.

Tang San said, "I will return to Kali City, but I might stay in the Ancestral Court a bit longer this time. Master, if you have nothing else to do, come back to the hotel. Let\'s discuss some arrays. We also need to prepare to visit the Aetherhorn Merchant Association."

Hearing about studying arrays, Zhang Haoxuan immediately agreed with enthusiasm.

—Alright, I\'ll come back right away!

Thanks to Tang San’s teachings, he had already mastered the Spirit Summoning Array. Additionally, he had nearly mastered the basic teleportation array. Illusion arrays and linked arrays were too complex to grasp quickly, but he wasn\'t in a hurry.

The deeper he delved into arrays, the more this mayor marveled at Tang San\'s ingenuity. The door to the world of arrays was slowly opening to him. After becoming a god-level powerhouse with divine consciousness, his brain had quite literally improved, making his thinking more agile. Understanding arrays became more intuitive, and he was eager to learn more from Tang San.

It wasn\'t long before Zhang Haoxuan returned. Instead of going directly to Tang San\'s room, he booked yet another Demon King Suite and had Tang San meet him there.

The teacher and student met again and exchanged a smile. Zhang Haoxuan couldn\'t wait and asked, "What are you planning to give them?"

Tang San said, "We need to offer some incentives; otherwise, we won\'t gain the full support of the Aetherhorn Deers. We can\'t give them the teleportation array, since it\'s the most valuable among single arrays. Let\'s give them the Spirit Fusion Array instead. Although it\'s more complex than the Spirit Summoning Array, with your current understanding of arrays, you should be able to master it quickly. Let\'s get started right away."

"Alright." Zhang Haoxuan was overjoyed. Mastering another array would deepen his understanding of arrays in general, and he was eager to learn more.

"I\'ve already inquired about the auction. In about half a month, there will be a large-scale auction in the Ancestral Court. Such auctions only happen twice a year. There should be many good items appearing. Do you think our array discs can shine there?"

Tang San nodded and said, "We need enough funds to buy good items, so how can we do that without bringing in some good things ourselves? In the next few days, you can practice making the Spirit Fusion Array disc, and I\'ll also put some elbow grease in and produce a few things. Then we\'ll send them to the auction."

In the following days, the other four members of the Shrek Squad continued their mountain climbing cultivation. Reaching the summit was impossible with their current strength, but they each gained many benefits during the climbing process.

During Cheng Zicheng\'s climb of the Undying Sacred Mountain, for instance, she was nearly burned to death. It was practically like a volcano. However, after being scorched like a roast chicken, she found that her bloodline seemed to have been purified. The pain was immense, but the benefits she gained were equally significant.

In comparison, Wu Bingji handled the Endless Demon Emperor\'s Endless Palace much more smoothly. Water and ice shared the same origin, and there he was able to understand much more about the various transformations of water. These insights greatly benefited him. His climb of the Endless Palace was also quite speedy due to his refined control over the ice element. He had already reached four-fifths of the way up and was progressing daily.

On the sixth day in the Ancestral Court, while his companions continued climbing Sacred Mountains, Tang San returned to the shop where the Aetherhorn Merchant Association had initially arrived.
