"Hehe, Brother Weisi, my Spirit Ability can do more than just that. Watch!"

Anna controlled the Hundred Herbs, which resembled Bloodthirsty Vines, and wrapped them around a large tree. Before long, the tree's essence had been completely drained. Yet her Soul Power did not increase; all the plant essence was stored within her Hundred Herbs Martial Spirit.

Then Anna controlled the Hundred Herbs to wrap around another large tree. This time, instead of absorbing its plant essence, she injected the essence she had absorbed earlier into it.

Having received a large amount of plant essence, the tree before them became even more lush and flourishing. It even grew considerably taller, gaining a full two or three meters in height and becoming much sturdier.

A tree that had originally required two people to wrap their arms around now needed at least three.

Anna explained, "Brother, my First Spirit Ability can not only absorb plant essence, but also store it within my Martial Spirit and apply it to other plants, allowing them to grow rapidly!"

"Holy shit!"

"That's insane! This ability is way too insane!"

Dai Weisi was instantly overjoyed. He threw his head back and laughed, having seen the strategic value of this ability at a glance.

Dai Weisi believed that with Anna's support, the Star Luo Empire's overall strength would rise to another level. Whether they faced Spirit Hall or annexed the Heaven Dou Empire in the future, he would have much greater confidence.

Seeing Dai Weisi grinning foolishly, Anna and Li Hu exchanged bewildered looks. Both were utterly confused. Wasn't it just an ability that made plants grow quickly? Was there really any need to be this happy?

At first glance, it was indeed merely an ability that could make plants grow rapidly, and it did not sound particularly remarkable. But one must not forget—wheat, rice, and vegetables were all plants as well!

What would happen if a large amount of plant essence were stored and then injected into crop seeds? Without a doubt, the seeds would rapidly sprout, mature, and eventually become food.

In other words, Anna's First Spirit Ability had enormous potential. If used properly, the Star Luo Empire would never lack food again.

If there was no food, there were always trees, weren't there?

As long as there were enough trees, together with Anna's First Spirit Ability, they could quickly ripen a batch of crops.

In the future, when the army marched out, they would not even need to bring provisions. They only needed to bring Anna and some crop seeds.

With more food, they could support more people. With more people, would they still need to worry about lacking Soul Masters and soldiers? With an absolute numerical advantage in Soul Masters and soldiers, how could the Star Luo Empire's strength not increase?

Although Anna could currently store only a small amount of plant essence, what if she broke through to become a Titled Douluo? She would definitely be able to store much more plant essence!

The Nine-Character Mantra: stockpile grain, build high walls, and bide your time before claiming kingship.

Didn't Anna's ability correspond to the "stockpile grain" part of it?

"Good heavens, we really struck gold! Anna, you're definitely going to be the Minister of Agriculture someday!"

Thinking of this, Dai Weisi smiled and scooped Anna into his arms. "Nana, you really gave your brother a surprise!"

The more Dai Weisi looked at Anna now, the more pleasing she seemed, and the more he liked her. He practically wanted to take her as his goddaughter.

Anna: I treat you as my brother, but you want to be my dad? Are you even human?

"Hehe, I should be thanking you, Brother Weisi. If you hadn't taken me in, I might still be wandering the streets, or I might have been sold to someone as a plaything."

Anna hugged Dai Weisi in return. To her, Dai Weisi felt even closer than her biological parents.

"As expected of my good little sister. What a good girl!" Dai Weisi said, gently ruffling her little head.

When he raised his head again, it was already dark, and the three of them had no choice but to spend the night in the forest. After dinner, Dai Weisi accompanied Anna into the forest to absorb plant essence and increase her Soul Power.

Anna controlled the Hundred Herbs to absorb nutrients from the trees. As the Hundred Herbs continuously converted plant essence into Soul Power, her Soul Power steadily increased.

"Nana, you don't necessarily have to absorb essence from trees. You can also try absorbing the Soul Power of plant-type soul beasts!"

As he spoke, Dai Weisi pointed toward a patch of grass ahead. Many Blue Silver Grass plants grew there. Most were ten-year Blue Silver Grass, while several had cultivated for over a hundred years.

"Alright, let me see how much Soul Power plant-type soul beasts can provide me." As soon as she finished speaking, the Hundred Herbs transformed into vines and wrapped around the leaves of several Blue Silver Grass plants, directly absorbing their Soul Power.

In an instant, a vast surge of Soul Power poured into Anna's body, causing the girl to let out a soft cry.

The Hundred Herbs Martial Spirit possessed the traits of over a hundred plant-based Martial Spirits, naturally including Blue Silver Grass. Therefore, the Soul Power of Blue Silver Grass would not harm Anna's body at all.

"What intense Soul Power. As expected, absorbing the Soul Power of soul beasts is much faster than absorbing plant essence."

After absorbing a Blue Silver Grass with a hundred years of cultivation, Anna's Soul Power successfully broke through to level fourteen. She hurriedly shared the good news with Dai Weisi.

"Brother, I succeeded! My Soul Power has reached level fourteen!"

"Nicely done! There are several more hundred-year Blue Silver Grass plants over there. Absorb those too."

"Alright."

Anna sat cross-legged and silently absorbed the Soul Power of the Blue Silver Grass. As her Soul Power increased, the speed at which she absorbed Soul Power also rose considerably.

At the same time, Dai Weisi began making plans. Once Anna's strength improved a little more, he would take her to the Blue Silver Forest. There were so many Blue Silver Grass plants there, as well as the Blue Silver King with eighty thousand years of cultivation. It would surely allow her strength to rise rapidly.

"Besides the Blue Silver Forest, I need to get the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone as soon as possible." Dai Weisi thought to himself. He had long had his eye on that one-hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

He just was not sure whether Tang Hao would be there, so he had never gone. But now, for Anna's sake, he had to make the trip.

At first, Dai Weisi had wanted to absorb the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone himself. But now, Anna was undoubtedly more suitable. Her Hundred Herbs Martial Spirit was a perfect match for the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

"Looks like I need to find an opportunity to get that Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone!"

Just as Dai Weisi was considering how to get the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, a major incident was taking place in distant Star Luo City.

Within the Star Luo Imperial Palace, over a thousand Imperial Guards and Black-Clothed Death Soldiers surrounded a green-haired old man. Dai Pojun and Zhu Yaqin stood as if facing a great enemy, both having activated their Martial Soul Avatars!

Dai Pojun cautiously asked, "Titled Douluo Dugu Bo, what brings you to the Star Luo Imperial Palace?"

Dugu Bo curled his lips into a faint smile and chuckled. "Heh heh, this old man has traveled thousands of miles to your Imperial Palace, naturally because I have an important matter to discuss! Is this how the Star Luo royal family treats its guests?"

As he spoke, he gave the surrounding Black-Clothed Death Soldiers a long, careful look. There were only one or two hundred of them, and most were merely ordinary people.

Yet for some reason, Dugu Bo sensed a faintly dangerous aura from them.

What he did not know was that every Death Soldier had over a hundred jin of Mixed Explosive strapped to his body. Once detonated, it would be enough to level the Star Luo Imperial Palace.

Even a Titled Douluo risked being blown to death if caught in the blast!
