<h4>Chapter 664: The Divine Realm?</h4>


    Tang San said, "Before I answer your question, could you first give me an answer to mine?"


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor nodded. "Although my support alone can''t help her pass the trial, if you can provide me with a new understanding regarding bloodlines, I will support her."


    Tang San nodded and said, "That will be enough."


    After speaking, he looked at the White Tiger Demon Emperor and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty should be able to sense the suppression of bloodlines on this ne. The strength of any given bloodline is limited, even for the strongest, like the Crystal Demon Emperor. Its bloodline strength remains within the bounds of a first-tier bloodline; it might be at the absolute peak of the peak, but it has not crossed that threshold, nor is it able to."


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor nodded. "That is correct."


    "This is the limitation you mentioned, something I call nar suppression. In other words, it’s Fn itself—or rather the ne in which it’s located—that ces a hard ceiling on bloodline power. That is because once a breakthrough is achieved, it will disrupt the bnce of the ne and inevitably cause problems. One breakthrough might not be too harmful, but if multiple individuals reach this level, the level beyond the twelfth order, then let alone cmities and such, even the copse of the entire ne isn''t out of the question."


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor nodded again. "You know a little <i>too</i> much for someone of your status. Where did you get this information?"


    Tang San did not directly answer the White Tiger Demon Emperor''s question but continued, "In other words, as long as you try to break through on this ne, the ne itself will stop you. No matter how strong you are, you still belong to the ne, so how can you possibly defy it? Only by using forces that don''t belong to this ne might there be a slim chance of breaking through. And speaking of that, what is your understanding of Fn?"


    @@novelbin@@


    "It’s an extremely fertile world, with vast spiritual energy. Although I have never left the ne, some others have; ording to some records passed down by the Ancestral Court, extremely powerful beings of ancient times have explored or observed whaty beyond. The records indicate that the spiritual energy of our is incredibly densepared to other simr ces, and there are very few nes stronger than ours."


    Tang San said, "Exactly. If Fn takes another step forward, it will ascend to another level. But for the ne itself, taking that step is an extremely difficult choice. If it doesn’t work, it could lead to the copse of the ne, causing it topletely vanish in the universe. If it <i>does</i> work, on the other hand, the ne can rise to be something else entirely: a divine realm! And given this ne’s energy level, once it bes a divine realm, it will be an exceptionally powerful one."


    "A divine realm, you say?"


    Tang San said, "Yes, the divine realm is where true immortality lies. A true god is not limited by life, and unless the divine realm itself is destroyed, they will exist eternally. That is what you should be seeking, isn''t it?"


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor frowned and asked, "How do you know all this?"


    Tang San replied, "You just mentioned that some mighty beings once appeared on Fn, and those mighty beings left behind some ancient legacies. I have obtained one of these ancient legacies."


    Hearing this, Mei Gongzi couldn''t help but turn to look at him. <i>Is this guy just making stuff up with a straight face? I bet that before the White Tiger Demon Emperor mentioned the ancient mighty beings, he had no idea about any of this stuff.</i>


    But at this moment, the White Tiger Demon Emperor actually seemed rather convinced Tang San was telling the truth. "Was it a bloodline legacy? Is that the bloodline you showed me?"


    "Not entirely. To be precise, itbines cultivation methods and bloodline inheritance. And I can tell you one more thing: some of the ancient mighty beings you mentioned were not originally from Fn; they came here from elsewhere. And they were not the progenitors of demons and nymphs... but the progenitors of humans."


    Hearing that the origin of Tang San’s legacy was actually human, the White Tiger Demon Emperor couldn''t help but be moved. This exnation also conveniently rified why he supported humans to such an extent.


    "Then how did youe to possess this bloodline?" the White Tiger Demon Emperor pressed on. At this point, his conversation with Tang San had taken on a more schrly tone, and he had even forgotten that his dear granddaughter was still there.


    "Fusion."


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor’s eyebrows shot up.


    "A single bloodline has limited strength, and even if it does mutate somehow, the power of this mutation can only be within the confines of a first-tier bloodline. Naturally, the bloodline mutations that have appeared so far haven''t been strong enough. But have you ever considered what would happen if two first-tier bloodlines were sessfully fused together, retaining the essence and discarding the inconsequential parts? Of course, this is very difficult—one wrong move, and it could lead to disastrous consequences. I only survived because of an ancient treasure left behind by an ancient powerhouse. Now let me get to the point: if you support Little Mei, I can tell you about my breakthrough process and the suppression I encountered."


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor responded without hesitation, "Agreed. I already said I will support her. But as I mentioned before, my individual support alone isn''t enough to ensure her sess."


    Tang San nodded. "As long as you support her, that''s enough."


    "So you''ll only tell me after her report? But by then, what you''ll face might be very difficult. If she fails, then forget about remaining a city lord; they might not even let you go back to Kali City at all."


    Tang San shook his head. "No need to wait until then. I can tell you now. When my bloodline underwent mutation, I experienced suppression from the ne itself. At that time, the entire bloodline was on the verge of breaking due to the nar suppression..." With that, Tang San detailed the process and sensations he experienced while fusing the Golden Armor Transformation.


    He wasn''t afraid of the White Tiger Demon Emperor knowing about this because even if he did, it wouldn''t be of much use. Without the Mysterious Heaven Technique, it was simply impossible to fuse two first-tier bloodlines the way Tang San had. But for the White Tiger Demon Emperor, gaining a deeper understanding of the mechanisms behind the nar suppression was unquestionably beneficial. After all, Tang San''s observations were backed by the experience of a God King.


    Mei Gongzi listened intently from the side. This was something Tang San had never told her before. Although she suspected that Tang San might be exaggerating a bit, she had personally witnessed the power of the Golden Armor Transformation.


    "...and this concluded the process. I have to say, I was lucky toplete the breakthrough. But now, there is still a major problem ahead of me. Namely, the tribtion. When I try to break through to godhood, the tribtion I face will undoubtedly be terrifying."


    As the White Tiger Demon Emperor absorbed what Tang San had just said, he remarked, "So, you''re saying that the bloodline evolution must bepleted before reaching godhood for it to seed."


    Tang San nodded and said, "Once the tribtion has passed, one’s mortal body bes a divine body and spiritual power transforms into divine consciousness, and with that, one’s road is fixed. Triggering a bloodline mutation after that is almost impossible, and fusing two bloodlines is simply out of the question. And even if the process ispleted before the tribtion, resisting the heavenly tribtion that follows will still be extremely difficult."


    The White Tiger Demon Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I say, isn’t this ne a coward? Why doesn''t it dare to attempt a breakthrough? Everything would be different if it could break through and be a divine realm."


    Tang San replied, "The ne probably isn’t smart enough to be a coward. The problem is that enabling an entire ne to transform is indeed an extremely difficult task. It would face countless challenges, and therger cosmic nes would also influence Fn’s ne. If Fn''s energy intensity was weaker, the probability of sess would be much higher because the universe is more tolerant of smaller divine realms. But precisely because its energy level is so high, if it were to be a divine realm, it would be considered a rtively high-level existence in the universe, and it might even slightly contribute to the evolution of the universe. This is not something the universe is willing to see."


    "Huh? Why is that? Isn''t evolution a good thing?" the White Tiger Demon Emperor asked, puzzled.
