The three of them traveled and played around while cultivating, spending a month before finally arriving outside the Blue Silver Forest.
"Why are we coming here?"
Looking at the ancient forest ahead, Bibi Dong did not understand why Tian Hao had come to a place like this.
After a month of playing and relaxing, Bibi Dong's mood had improved considerably.
"To meet a senior, a Soul Beast senior. I have some ideas I'd like to discuss with him."
Tian Hao casually replied before stepping into the forest. At the same time, he slowly released the Sacred Light Soul Power stored in his Middle Dantian, making it seem as though his entire body was covered in a layer of Golden Light and giving off a sacred, warm feeling.
Under the illumination of the Sacred Light Soul Power, all the plants became lively. The plant-type Soul Beasts in particular swayed their leaves in response.
Plants all loved light, and plant-type Soul Beasts were no exception. This Sacred Light Soul Power could bring them considerable benefits.
As they went deeper, even some Animal Soul Beasts were startled and came running over. However, after sensing the Sacred Light Soul Power radiating from Tian Hao, none of them attacked. Instead, they followed on both sides and behind them, wary yet filled with longing.
Bibi Dong and Ling Yuan followed closely behind. Although they did not understand Tian Hao's actions, they could only choose to follow.
After walking toward the deepest part of the forest for more than half a day, Tian Hao finally stopped in front of a strange tree.
Calling it a tree was not quite accurate. It was formed from numerous thick blue vines coiling and converging together, and it stood ten meters tall.
"Respected Blue Silver King senior, the human Soul Master Tian Hao has come to pay his respects."
"You know me?"
After a long silence, a humanoid face woven from blue silver vines emerged and gazed at the humans below. It was none other than the ruler of this Blue Silver Forest—the Blue Silver King.
"I saw records about you in some ancient texts. I determined that you were one of the few Soul Beasts with reason who could communicate with us humans."
Tian Hao nodded and casually bluffed.
"What does a human want to discuss with me, a Soul Beast?"
The Blue Silver King was puzzled. What did he and a human have to discuss?
"I have always been researching the mysteries of Spirit Ring condensation, and I've come up with a bold hypothesis. If I used the Origin power of my own Martial Soul as a foundation to condense a Spirit Ring, could I place it onto my Martial Soul? Such a Spirit Ring would undoubtedly be more compatible than a Spirit Ring obtained by hunting a Soul Beast.
"That is why I came here to discuss the mysteries within Spirit Rings with you, senior, and strive to construct a Spirit Ring on my own.
"If this hypothesis succeeds, we humans will greatly reduce our hunting of Soul Beasts. That would benefit both sides."
Tian Hao revealed part of his purpose. Although his main target was that Blue Silver Emperor, he first had to throw out some bait and bluff the Blue Silver King into finding a way to contact Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, who did not know where she was.
"I'm very Astonished by your idea, but it's impossible. First, the construction of a Spirit Ring does not originate from us Soul Beasts, but from the Heavenly Rules.
"After we Soul Beasts die, under the guidance of the Heavenly Rules, our Origin power merges with Soul Power and takes shape as a Spirit Ring. That is not something human power can construct.
"Besides that, constructing a Spirit Ring requires an extremely vast amount of Origin power. Even the Origin power required for the lowest-grade White Soul Ring, a Ten-Year Soul Ring, is far beyond what human Soul Masters can provide..."
Having sensed no Hostility from the three of them, and feeling quite comfortable under the radiance of the Sacred Light Soul Power, the Blue Silver King patiently continued the discussion.
"The reason Ten-Thousand-Year Shapeshifted Soul Beasts can continuously perform Self-Condensing Soul Ring is that they have accumulated enough Origin power in their true bodies?"
After listening to the Blue Silver King's explanation, Tian Hao fell into thought.
"Let's set aside Origin power for now and talk about this Soul Ring Structure. I'm not particularly talented, but I've already parsed the Soul Ring Structure. Please use your Spiritual power to empower me, senior. It won't be easy to fully manifest the results of that analysis."
Tian Hao confidently indicated that the Blue Silver King should help him. Since he had come to the Blue Silver Forest to launch his deception plan, he had naturally made thorough preparations.
"You can parse the Soul Ring Structure?"
The Blue Silver King was deeply Astonished and also very interested. He empowered Tian Hao with his own immense Spiritual power.
It would not hurt to try. He also wanted to see how far this human's research into Spirit Rings had progressed.
"What immense Spiritual power!"
Sensing Spiritual power dozens of times greater than his own enveloping him, Tian Hao could not help marveling at how astonishingly profound the Blue Silver King's accumulated Spiritual power was. He estimated that it was no weaker than that of a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast.
This could also be considered one of the innate talents of Blue Silver Grass.
Tian Hao merged his own Spiritual power and the Spiritual power within his Soul Bone into the Blue Silver King's Spiritual power. Then he released the Attribute-less Soul Power in his Dantian and used Spiritual power to shape it into a series of complex structures. The Blue Silver King assisted from behind, using Spiritual power to stabilize those structures one by one.
After continuously constructing them for several hours, they finally formed a gigantic circular ring thirty meters in diameter. Its shape was like a Spirit Ring magnified to the extreme.
However, because it had been constructed from Tian Hao's own Attribute-less Soul Power, it was colorless and transparent.
This was the result Tian Hao had obtained after parsing that Spirit Ring. He had tried it before and discovered that whether it was a White Soul Ring or a Yellow Soul Ring, their structures were the same. The difference lay in the levels of Origin power and Soul Power, which produced different manifestations.
Simply put, it had been dyed by Soul Power.
Once the construction of the Soul Ring closed, the originally unstable Soul Ring suddenly began rotating slowly. Tian Hao gradually extracted the Attribute-less Soul Power within it, and the enormous Soul Ring slowly contracted like a deflating balloon. In the end, it shrank to the size of a Bracelet and floated above his palm.
"Thank goodness it worked."
Tian Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long breath.
Although he had already performed numerous Deduction simulations, this was still his first time actually putting it into practice.
If not for the Blue Silver King's immense Spiritual power empowering him, he truly would not have been able to handle this thing.
This Scene left the two women, who had remained silent the entire time, staring at each other in bewilderment. They had genuinely not expected the young man to possess such a method.
Was molding a Spirit Ring with bare hands not supposedly a method belonging to the legendary Gods?
"You actually did it!"
The Blue Silver King was utterly shocked. His Spiritual power had participated in the construction of the Soul Ring from beginning to end, so he naturally understood the profound mysteries within it. There were even many aspects he could not Understand at present.
And yet the young man had truly constructed this Soul Ring.
"This is only a Soul Power Soul Ring. Without Origin power to stabilize it, it won't last long."
Tian Hao gave a slight Shake Head. At this stage, this thing could only be considered a semi-finished product.
After a moment of silence, a blue silver vine extended over, carrying a small cluster of Origin power.
"Use my Origin power and try it."
The Blue Silver King was filled with anticipation. He had originally not Care About this human's Proposal, but who could have expected the human to pull off such a major move?
If this could be realized, it would undoubtedly change the situation across the entire continent, especially the conflicts between Soul Beasts and humans.
Tian Hao did not hesitate. He diluted and fused that small cluster of Origin power with Attribute-less Soul Power, then slowly injected it into the Soul Ring.
As the Origin power was injected, a trace of blue appeared within the originally colorless Soul Ring. The blue continued to increase and deepen, and its color grew heavier and heavier until it finally turned a pale black.
"A Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!"
Ling Yuan could not help stepping forward to examine it carefully, confirming that it was undoubtedly a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
However, this Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring seemed somewhat underdeveloped. It was extremely faint, like a mere phantom.
"Senior, please examine this Soul Ring we created together and see how it differs from the Soul Ring formed after a normal Soul Beast's death."
Tian Hao handed the stabilized Soul Ring to the blue silver vine, indicating that the Blue Silver King should inspect it carefully.
Tian Hao: The first step in deceiving Ah Yin—deceive the Blue Silver King.
