Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Tang San narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "So, you're saying if I can solve the problem of the sea plague, the Sea Clan would allow humans to survive on the island? Is that what you mean?"

The Sea Dragon Tribe Leader, who evidently had an impatient disposition, immediately responded without hesitation, "If you can indeed help us solve the sea plague, then you really would be our Sea God. Nothing could be more important than that. You have no idea how many sea creatures have died from the sea plague. The Polluted Yellow Sea has been expanding precisely because the constant influx of corpses dissolves into it, causing that dead zone to keep growing. If this continues, one day the Endless Blue Ocean will be completely replaced by the Polluted Yellow Sea. When that time comes, I'm afraid it will be a disaster for the entire planet, and even the Demon Monster Land will not be spared."

Tang San nodded and said, "I understand. However, to solve the sea plague, I need to witness it firsthand. Are there any nearby waters where the sea plague has appeared? Or if there's a location with the sea plague, take me there to see if I can handle it."

In his previous life, Tang San was not just the Sea God's heir; he was also a master of using poison, with profound research in the areas of curing diseases and plagues. Moreover, in the sea, he also had various methods to deal with the issues that arose within it. Thus, he was relatively confident in his heart.

The Sea Giant Leader said, "The sea plague could appear at any time; it's just unpredictable as to where it might emerge. How about this, we'll immediately mobilize our Clansmen to scout for information and activate various Sea Clans. Once the sea plague is discovered, we'll inform you to inspect it. Does that sound good to you?"

Tang San nodded and said, "That's not an issue. Let's do this: I'll establish a Teleportation Array on this island. I'll come to check in often, and after you have news, you can find me here. However, we humans do indeed need an overseas settlement. Leaving other places aside for now, can we use this island to start some basic construction to make it habitable for humans? If I can't solve the sea plague, we'll give up the island later. If I do solve it, then we can move more humans overseas. What do you think?"

The several leaders looked at each other, and their gazes ultimately converged on the Elder of the Sea Elephant Clan. The Sea Giant Leader then said, "Elder, this is your Sea Elephant Clan's territory, you decide."

The Elder of the Sea Elephant Clan looked at Tang San, and without much hesitation, nodded immediately and said, "Our Sea Elephant Clan has no objections; I will explain the situation to our clan immediately. I have authority over this sea island, so please, Sea God Sir, take pity on us."

The Elder of the Sea Elephant Clan was different from the Sea Dragon and Sea Giant Leaders. It was the one that acknowledged Tang San the most. The reason was simple: it had previously experienced the apocalyptic aura brought by Tang San, the aura of a lightning tribulation. This had not occurred when Tang San fought with the Sea Giant and Sea Dragon Tribe Leaders.

The Elder of the Sea Elephant Clan now held an unshakeable belief in Tang San's identity as the Protector of the Sea and the Sea God's heir. Others might be fake, but the aura of the Sea God and the devastating might that came with it could not be faked.

Also, it had its own considerations: if this area was the territory of the Sea Elephant Clan, then if this so-called Sea God could truly solve the problem of the sea plague, by allowing his people to migrate here, wouldn't that mean the Sea Elephant Clan would get his help first in the face of the sea plague and thus be saved?

Tang San said, "I am not the Sea God yet; you don't need to address me that way. My name is Tang San, you can just call me by my name."

The Elder of the Sea Elephant Clan said, "You are too modest, Sir. You carry the aura of the Sea God, and the power of faith you bring can be felt by us as a tremendous help. How can we address you plainly by your name? Let us refer to you as 'Your Excellency' instead."

Both the Sea Giant and Sea Dragon Leaders nodded as well. They too were somewhat subdued by Tang San. He wasn't at God Rank, yet he managed to suppress both of them comprehensively in a two-on-one fight. Although they had not fought with all their might, if Tang San hadn't shown mercy, the Sea Giant Leader wouldn't even have had the chance to fight desperately.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

This human gave them a multitude of miraculous feelings. Of course, whether he was truly the Sea God remained to be seen, depending on whether he could solve the sea plague issue for the Endless Blue Ocean.

Tang San said, "Well then, without further delay, I'll set up a Teleportation Array here first. Afterwards, I will send some humans over for settlement construction, and then gradually relocate others. If you find sea plague nearby, notify me in a timely manner. I will be staying on this island most of the time from now on."

Through the communication with these leaders, Tang San gained a lot of insight into the Endless Blue Ocean. He had a hypothesis that he hadn't voiced out. What was the underlying cause for the recurring widespread outbreaks of sea plague in the Endless Blue Ocean?

Unconsciously, Tang San was reminded of the scenes he had seen in Hell's Garden, as well as the feelings he had experienced at Heavenly Fox Holy Mountain.

The Demon Monster Land had concentrated the Luck of the entire planet within the Ancestral Court, bestowing good fortune upon both the Monster Clan and the Spirit Clan. So, where does the flip side to this luck, misfortune, lie? Could the sea plague be the manifestation of this misfortune?

In the midst of battle just now, Tang San had expended the Field of Fortune and Misfortune. During that moment, he vaguely felt that while deploying the Domain here, the strength of misfortune seemed far greater than on the continent of Demon Monster Land, and luck, in contrast, was rather meager.

In some sense, it wouldn't be wrong to describe the Endless Blue Ocean as cursed.

Where did this curse come from?

Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox, what a Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox!

As for whether it truly was or not, he would have to see the sea plague himself to determine that.

The purpose of his voyage to the sea had been mostly fulfilled. Moreover, he had gained a not inconsiderable harvest. He had also found a way to establish friendly relations with the Sea Clan.

Setting up the Teleportation Array had become routine for him; all the materials were ready. Tang San had already thought of establishing a Teleportation Array before setting out, so naturally everything was well-prepared.

Soon, a Teleportation Array was completed and left under the guardianship of the Sea Elephant Clan. After establishing the Teleportation Array, Tang San was the first to use it, attempting to teleport.

A few hundred sea miles were inconsequential for his Ultra-long-distance Teleportation Array, especially with the guidance of the Time Waymark and even more so when transporting only himself.

In the blink of an eye, Tang San had opened the gateway of teleportation, stepped through, and vanished into thin air.

The peculiar spatial fluctuation from the teleportation astonished several members of the Sea Clan. This was an existence they had never encountered; the Sea Clan had no race adept in Space capability, and for a moment, their hope that Tang San could resolve the sea plague increased a fewfold.

Tang San directly teleported back to the Golden Valley. He was not worried about opening a Teleportation Array in the sea that connected here; without the Time-space marker, the Sea Clan simply couldn't harness the Array to follow him. Another reason was that the Sea Clan had no Emperor, no beings at the Emperor Level; particularly in the vast ocean, threatening his life was virtually impossible.

If it weren't for the fact that he had reached a bottleneck and dared not randomly absorb the power of faith, the sea would be the most suitable place for his Cultivation. Once he managed to break through to the God Rank, he would definitely return to the Endless Blue Ocean and endure hardships there for a period of Cultivation.

Without resting, Tang San immediately connected with Pretty Girl via communication, telling her he had returned, to save her from worrying. He also asked her to visit him in Golden Valley to discuss the migration of humans overseas.

Pretty Girl was now of Purple Level Redemption, among the upper echelons of the Redemption Organization. Even in the Ancestral Court, according to what Tang San's teacher said, there were only two other individuals of Purple Level Redemption, so as far as matters in Jiali City went, Pretty Girl had full decision-making authority.

Before long, Pretty Girl teleported over.
