Blue Silver Emperor Evolution

Douluo Continent, Nuoding City.

Nuoding Academy student dormitories, the small forest behind the mountain.

Suddenly, the space around him twisted. A youth dressed in black training clothes, with Blue Silver Hair, fell out of the warped space and landed steadily on the ground—though the first part of him to make contact with the ground was his butt.

If that old rabbit had been here, he would definitely have recognized Zu Zong.

"Ow, damn it! Dog system, will you only be happy once you've killed me from a fall?"

[Beep. The host is just too trash.]

"Damn, you knew my Soul Power was exhausted, yet you still pulled this?"

[Beep. The host brought this upon himself. You insisted on copying those hot-blooded male leads and acting cool.]

"How was I acting cool? I was drooling over her bo—ah, pfft! I was cherishing a delicate beauty. Fine, fine, I won't argue with you. I'll restore my Soul Power first."

As he spoke, Zu Zong sat cross-legged on the ground and began regulating his breathing. Although that "scumbag Grandmaster" had questionable character, the Soul Power Meditation Method he had compiled still had its merits. In just half an hour, Zu Zong's Soul Power had recovered seven or eight tenths.

After stretching lazily, Zu Zong rose to his feet. "Ahhh! That feels so good! It's like I've come back to life. Hm? What's this?"

At the same time, the system's prompt sounded in Zu Zong's mind.

[Beep. Congratulations to the host for raising your Soul Power to Level 15. Reward: one theft opportunity.]

"So easy? It feels like it hasn't been long since I reached Level 14!"

Zu Zong had absorbed his Soul Ring the day before yesterday. After accumulating enough power, he had leaped directly from Level 10 to Level 14.

Yet after taking a stroll through the Dou Qi Continent and incidentally nurturing little Xun'er's meridians, he had broken through another level. It was truly baffling.

"System, open my personal panel."

[Beep. Host personal panel opened.]

"Mm, raising one level of Soul Power increased my Base Strength by 20. Not bad." Among low-level Soul Masters on Douluo Continent, unless one side had one more Soul Ring than the other, the difference between each level was not particularly obvious. At most, one's Soul Power was slightly more abundant than the other's. For Zu Zong to gain 20 points of Base Strength was already quite good. After all, his Base Strength was already no weaker than that of a Soul Elder without a thousand-year Soul Ring.

"Wait, am I seeing this right? What the hell is an Extreme Flame Blue Silver Emperor?"

[Beep. While the host was nurturing Xiao Xun'er's meridians, the Blue Silver Emperor accidentally absorbed a trace of Sub-flame Qi from the Golden Emperor Burning Flame and mutated.]

"I see! The original novel seemed to mention that the Blue Silver Emperor possessed an ability similar to Devour. Let me try it."

As he spoke, Zu Zong gathered Soul Power in his right hand. A faint white glow emerged over the surface of his skin, followed by dark-blue Blue Silver Grass surging wildly from his palm. A clear yellow ring rose from beneath his feet and spiraled around his body.

"First Soul Skill—Poison Dragon Entanglement."

Zu Zong formed several Strange Hand Seals. The ground beneath his feet cracked inch by inch, and over a dozen Blue Silver Emperor Vines as thick as bowls sprouted out, swiftly wrapping themselves tightly around a large tree that took two people to encircle.

The scales covering the Blue Silver Emperor Vines gradually turned red. The moment the tree trunk touched the vines, white smoke rose, and the scent of burning filled the air. It was caused by the high-temperature scales covering the vines' surfaces. No—now it should be called the Extreme Flame Blue Silver Emperor.

"Poisonous Devour."

The instant he shouted the word "Devour," the reddened scales on the Blue Silver Emperor Vines oozed streams of red liquid. Unlike the previous purple corrosive venom, it resembled magma, yet it remained fluid rather than solidifying. The moment it touched the trunk, the tree collapsed in the blink of an eye. Its break was charred black, and upon closer inspection, it was clear that a section of the trunk had simply vanished.

"Damn, how is this still poison? This is clearly an upgraded version of corpse-dissolving water! If someone got trapped by this thing and slipped up, even a Soul Ancestor would be done for. The corrosive venom has turned into an extremely aggressive Fire Poison."

Of course, that was assuming Zu Zong could catch a Soul Ancestor in the first place. After all, their Martial Souls were no joke either.

Gathering Soul Power in his right hand once more, Zu Zong summoned another Blue Silver Emperor and said thankfully, "Fortunately, as long as I don't use a Soul Skill, it's still the original Blue Silver Emperor. Otherwise, that dead greedy old rabbit would start cursing."

[Beep. Detected that the host still has 14 theft opportunities. Would you like to steal?]

"Steal. I refuse to believe I'll be as unlucky as last time every single time."

[Beep. Congratulations to the host for stealing Kabuto's Three Body Technique from the Naruto world—Substitution Technique, Transformation Technique, and Clone Technique. Kabuto's Hate Value toward the host has risen to 1%. Hatred Points increased by 10.]

"Mm! The Three Body Technique is pretty good! It can save my life at critical moments. But the Hatred Points are a little low."

[Beep. Because Yakushi Kabuto inherited everything from Orochimaru and evolved into Kabuto, his strength increased greatly. An E-rank ninjutsu like the Three Body Technique is dispensable to him.]

Zu Zong nodded. "That makes sense. Yakushi Kabuto is probably still lost in himself. Without Itachi using the Mangekyou Sharingan to cast Izanami, I wonder how things will end."

[Beep. When the host stole Uchiha Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan and taijutsu, Uchiha Itachi had just died. After being revived through Impure World Reincarnation, there is still a high chance that Uchiha Itachi will regain the peak strength he possessed in life.]

"I see. Then when he revives and sees that Sasuke is blind, won't he hate me to death?"

[Beep. Very likely!]

"Damn! But whatever. At worst, if I get forcibly teleported to him, I'll just hide far away. I can't handle Izanami."

At the same time, within an underground space somewhere along the border between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Earth in the Naruto world.

Yakushi Kabuto extended a disgusting long tongue like Orochimaru's and licked his lips. Suddenly, a strange sensation surfaced in his mind.

Kabuto frowned and muttered to himself, "Hm? What is this feeling? I feel like I've forgotten something!" But before long, his brows relaxed again. "Well, forget it. It probably isn't important. I should revive Uchiha Itachi through Impure World Reincarnation first! I'm really looking forward to the two brothers, Itachi and Sasuke, meeting again! Hahaha!"

In only a moment, Zu Zong had completely mastered the Three Body Technique he had stolen.

"System, continue stealing."

[Beep. Congratulations to the host for stealing a bottle of water from the Zimu River in Amazon Lily from Journey to the West. Since the Zimu River is ownerless, the host cannot obtain Hatred Points.]

"Zimu River water?"

Zu Zong's eyes lit up. This was something that could make anyone who drank it become pregnant. It was practically an essential prank item for traveling!

At that thought, several names of potential victims surfaced in Zu Zong's mind: Tang San, Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang.

The second update to make up for it.
