Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 860 - 858: Tree Ancestor’s Radiance
Chapter 860: Chapter 858: Tree Ancestor’s Radiance
He fully understood the implications of Jin Miaosen’s words. For the Spirit Monster Race, this was probably no big secret. In fact, it was the reason the Blue Gold Tree Clan had been able to thrive to present times despite being born with the natural treasures in their bodies. Jin Miaosen’s words had provided that very answer. Foreign races who came here, even if they entered the inner city, would have their Life Force stripped away and devoured by the physical remains left by the Tree Ancestor.
In other words, if he hadn’t previously integrated the Bloodline Brand from Jin Miaosen and acquired the characteristics of the Blue Gold Tree Clan, he would have been devoured by now! At the very least, it wouldn’t have been a pleasant experience.
This was because when he arrived here and saw this great tree for the first time, he fully believed what Jin Miaosen had told him earlier—that the Tree Ancestor was one of the three ancestors of the Rihchen Empire. The aura emanating from the Blue Gold Tree was of an Emperor Level; regarding Life rank, it was even above that of the Crystal Great Demon Emperor. Facing such a terrifying entity, even though Tang San was protected by God Guard Body, he couldn’t guarantee that his life force wouldn’t be devoured.
Of course, as for him now, there were only benefits to be reaped. It was clear that the Tree Ancestor had no consciousness and only recognized bloodlines, not individuals.
Subconsciously, Tang San praised his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye in his heart. Luck’s blessing really was something else! Indeed, luck could often be said to be the most formidable power.
It was only then that Jin Miaosen finally removed the spikes coiling around the vines behind Tang San and beckoned to him, taking the lead towards the direction of the Blue Gold Tree.
...
Tang San followed closely behind, matching his footsteps, and even stepped in the same footprints. Facing such a non-conscious entity with such immense energy like the Blue Gold Tree, he had to tread carefully; otherwise, dangers might truly arise. However, the aura of Life Force emanating from the Blue Gold Tree was staggeringly powerful. Tang San could feel his Time Variation Seal, which was already at its peak state, beginning to transform towards rank 11. Such a high level of Life Force directly nourished his very essence, and all the Bloodline Brands within him were being nurtured.

Any race that came here and gained the recognition of the Blue Gold Tree would definitely see an astonishing rate of increase in their Cultivation base. Unfortunately, this place was exclusive to the Blue Gold Tree Clan and would not allow any other race inside. The way Tang San entered was unprecedented. But, who would have thought that he possessed the profound Mysterious Heaven Method?
Coming to the front of the Blue Gold Tree, Jin Miaosen slowly sat down cross-legged, facing the Blue Gold Tree, and said softly, “Respected Tree Ancestor, your child has returned, my older brother Jin Miaolin has returned. Our future Emperor has come back. Can you feel it? Please pass on your inheritance to the New Emperor. Your Radiance, only he can bring it back to its full glory.”
While speaking, it respectfully bowed down to the Blue Gold Tree.
Tang San, standing by its side, heard every word clearly, and while he was surprised, he immediately made some judgments.
As if sensing Jin Miaosen’s words, the light on the Blue Gold Tree’s surface became noticeably stronger, and a more intense life force burst forth from it. The potent aura of Life Force was incredibly rich.
Just at that moment, an angry voice suddenly rang out, “Jin Miaosen, who gave you permission to activate the Tree Ancestor’s origin?”
An intense presence appeared suddenly, and a blue gold radiance enveloped the Blue Gold Tree. Instantly, the glow that the Blue Gold Tree had just exhibited was forcefully suppressed back down, and a great deal of its life energy receded.
Several blue figures descended from the sky and landed in front of the Blue Gold Tree.
They were also from the Blue Gold Tree Clan, but these individuals appeared very old. The leader, with eight spikes extending from his back, glared at Jin Miaosen with a fierce blue-gold radiance emanating from his body.
Jin Miaosen floated up and stepped back twice, coming to Tang San’s side.
“Great Elder, why do you stop me?” Jin Miaosen asked coldly.
The Great Elder furiously said, “How can the Tree Ancestor’s source be moved lightly? You, relying on being a direct descendant of the Tree Ancestor, actually force the Tree Ancestor’s source to stir. Do you know your crime?”
Jin Miaosen said coldly, “Great Elder, take a look at who this is?” Saying so, he turned towards Tang San beside him.
The Great Elder, along with two other Blue Gold Clan Elders with six spikes on their backs, nearly simultaneously shifted their gazes towards Tang San. When they saw Tang San’s appearance clearly, they couldn’t help but be startled.
The Great Elder’s brows furrowed tightly, “Are you… Jin Miaolin?”
Without waiting for Tang San to speak, Jin Miaosen hastily said, “That’s right, my brother has returned. As the first in line to succeed our father, he naturally should be illuminated by the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance and supported by the Tree Ancestor’s source. Haven’t you seen? My brother has already reached the level of a Great Spirit King. He is qualified to inherit the will of the Tree Ancestor and lead our clan back to glory.”
The Great Elder’s expression dramatically changed, exclaiming, “Jin Miaolin? Is he really Jin Miaolin?”
Jin Miaosen said coldly, “Could this be false? The Tree Ancestor’s Radiance is the witness.”
Confirming the identity of the Blue Gold Tribe, the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance is the simplest, most direct, and effective method. Ordinary members of the Blue Gold Tribe wouldn’t cause any anomalies when near the Blue Gold Tree, nor would they be devoured of their life force. Only direct bloodline descendants of the Tree Ancestor could receive the favor of the Radiance.
This fact was not even shown by the several Elders present. Only Tang San and Jin Miaosen had the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance merge with them.
The Great Elder, watching the blue-gold light spots continuously drift towards the siblings, his expression growing uglier, spoke, “Even if he is truly Jin Miaolin, whether he can inherit the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance still needs to be affirmed by the Council of Elders. How could you decide that on your own? Do you know, once the Tree Ancestor’s source is moved, what trouble it will bring in the future? The Tree Ancestor’s main body will become weak, unable to guard our clan for a long time. Then, if no Emperor is born, our clan will fall into the darkest days following the demise of your father. As the Great Elder, I will never allow such a situation to happen again, that would be a true disaster for our clan.”
Jin Miaosen finally couldn’t control his emotions anymore and angrily said, “What for the sake of the clansmen, you’re only thinking of yourself. My brother and I are both direct bloodline heirs of the Tree Ancestor. We both have the right to inherit the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance and source. When my brother left to wander in the past, taking advantage of my youth, you seized control and distributed the Tree Ancestor’s Aura to ascend to the level of a Great Spirit King. I’ve proposed many times to inherit the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance, and you’ve used the excuse of me being a female, unworthy to inherit, to block me. Now that my brother is back, do you still want to fob off with these high-sounding excuses? Don’t forget, the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance first and foremost shines on its children. My brother is also a Great Spirit King now. Here, you absolutely cannot defeat my brother.”
The Great Elder looked at Jin Miaosen with a dark expression, the sudden turn of events also left him somewhat at a loss. Who could have expected Jin Miaolin to suddenly return? This Jin Miaolin had gone missing for decades!
The previous Emperor only left these two children. To be able to inherit the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance and source, Jin Miaosen even restrained from splitting to produce offspring.
Power is an enticing thing; Jianmu City has actually been without a City Lord. It is managed by the Blue Gold Tribe Elder Assembly. This Great Elder, after paying quite a price, also obtained the support of the Mysterious Heaven Skill’s Soul-Stealing Heavenly Spirit Emperor and Phoenix Tree Spirit King, both of the same bloodline as the Tree Ancestor, and that’s how he could firmly guard this place. But it is not a direct bloodline of the Tree Ancestor, unable to inherit the Tree Ancestor’s Radiance and lineage; it can only slowly absorb and devour the Tree Ancestor’s Aura. The Blue Gold Tribe has long lifespans, and he has always believed, given enough time, he too has the opportunity to become an Emperor in the future.
