"My nightmares can be so deadly, but you! You're incapable of seeing through the illusion; it's all a lie!"
Ye Tianxing easily resolved the Nightmare Illusion that he was so proud of back Shi Nian. No, it should be said that Ye Tianxing was never deeply trapped in the Nightmare Illusion from beginning to end.
Everything was merely a scheme devised by Ye Tianxing to lure Shi Nian out of the city.
"Whether it's true or false, you'll find out soon enough. I'll give you a chance to test me." Ye Tianxing smiled, holding the Seven Star Sword without making a move.
"Fine! You said it! Don't regret it!"
A cold and cruel smile appeared on Shi Nian's lips as the seven Spirit Ring beneath his feet lit up one by one. This time, he was prepared to go all out.
As Shi Nian exerted his power, the surrounding forest twisted and turned. Everything seemed so familiar. Ye Tianxing saw his past self and also saw how he looked when he first entered the Spirit Hall.
"I miss it so much, I can't believe so many years have passed."
Ye Tianxing's eyes were clear, and he ignored the illusion before him. He saw with his own eyes that Shi Nian pulled out a dagger from his pocket, intending to take advantage of his deep immersion in the illusion to seize a chance to kill him.
However, Shi Nian's dagger fell limply into the ground. Ye Tianxing had severed his tendons, and the Seven Star Sword was held against Shi Nian's throat, with a trickle of bright red blood flowing straight down his neck.
"This is impossible! Impossible!" Shi Nian's eyes trembled. He simply couldn't believe that his Nightmare Illusion would fail. He knew that every Spirit Master on the continent feared him. " Remnant Dream " was not a name he was given.
"You're done, now it's my turn!"
A red halo spread outward from Ye Tianxing's eyes, Sand Mandara External Spirit Bone was: Illusion.
Since Ye Tianxing stepped into the Soul Saint and possessed three Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring, his External Soul Bone have also grown. The illusion can cause enemies to fall into an illusion, which is similar to Shi Nian's nightmare.
The Ning Rongrong that Huo Wushuang saw on the arena earlier was also an illusion created by Ye Tianxing to deceive Huo Wushuang and make him rush to the edge of the arena in full view of everyone.
Because of this incident, Huo Wushuang was speechless when faced with his master's reprimand after returning home. He was sure that the person he saw was Ning Rongrong, so why did he inexplicably rush off the stage?
Shi Nian's eyes gradually became vacant. From his perspective, it was another dark night. At that time, he was chained by the neck and completely naked without a single piece of clothing covering his body.
" Yu Xiaogang? What are you trying to do!"
Shi Nian screamed in terror, because he realized that the one leading him was actually Yu Xiaogang.
"Are you trying to take over now?! Who gave you the guts?! Stop! Stop! No! This isn't real! This isn't real!"
Shi Nian was experiencing both pain and joy. Ye Tianxing chuckled and said, "You scumbag."
Ye Tianxing clapped his hands, and after sending Shi Nian to the sect's dungeon, he shook his head helplessly. "If you believed that Yu Xiaogang, this is your fate. I won't kill you, because you are a very important piece of my strategy, a crucial step to completely destroy Yu Xiaogang."
After settling Shi Nian, Ye Tianxing returned to Heaven Dou City.
Meanwhile, after a long journey, Tang Hao and his son finally arrived at the forest where the Blue Silver King was located.
Tang Hao sighed. He had planned to tell his son the whole story after the competition ended, and then bring him here.
However, plans can never keep up with changes, so Tang Hao had no choice but to do it this way ahead of schedule.
"Damn Yu Xiaogang!" Tang Hao cursed under his breath, then looked at Tang San and ordered, "Did you remember the oath you made?"
Tang San was silent for a moment, then nodded woodenly. "Dad, after I returned to the Shrek Academy after my Second Awakening of the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, I never spoke to the old man again..."
Noticing his father's gaze, Tang San immediately changed his tune, saying, "I will never have anything to do with Yu Xiaogang again. Even if he tries to talk to me, I will not easily associate with him."
After Tang San finished speaking, Tang Hao nodded with a hint of satisfaction. "Remember what you just said. Someone like Yu Xiaogang is not worthy of being your teacher. He has been using you since you were a child. He only uses you as a tool for him to turn his life around and verify the lousy information in his hands."
"I understand." Tang San nodded. It was not something that could be easily severed from the deep teacher-student bond he had formed.
" Tang San, release your Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, feel the call from the depths of your bloodline, and follow its guidance to complete your own path."
After Tang Hao gave the order, Tang San were filled with hope and urgency. As the Blue Silver Grass appeared in his palm, he closed his eyes and listened intently to the call and guidance from the depths of his bloodline.
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this?"
"Your Majesty, we are all your subjects!"
"Your Majesty, we don't understand..."
Tang San heard clearly the lingering resentment left behind by the Blue Silver King after his fall. Following the guidance of the voice, Tang San arrived at a desolate place.
Tang San opened his eyes and looked around. The scene before him shocked him.
Before me stood a large, long-collapsed and decaying tree. Its trunk had been completely eroded away, leaving only its remains. The ground was covered with withered yellow leaves and traces left by the decay of some unknown plant.
Tang San's feet inevitably got covered in some of the grime along the way.
"These are all remnants left behind after the Blue Silver Grass rotted. What exactly happened here?" Tang San was full of doubts. Blue Silver Grass was his Martial Soul, and even though the Blue Silver Grass on the ground had rotted, Tang San still recognized it by its aura.
"You are... the Emperor's child?" The Blue Silver King's voice quietly sounded.
Tang San was taken aback and asked, "Who are you?"
"Who am I? Who am I? Hahaha!" The Blue Silver King laughed, his voice filled with incomprehension and resentment. "I am just a child killed by my mother. Since you are the emperor's child, you should bear the responsibility!"
"Take responsibility?" Tang San was utterly bewildered. "What responsibility? I didn't do anything at all!"
Tang San only wanted to awaken the Blue Silver Grass Second Awakening, but all he found here was a desolate place. Now he's confused about what responsibility he's taking on.
It's utterly baffling.
Just as Tang San thought his father had taken him to the wrong place, familiar faces suddenly appeared before his eyes. They were all Blue Silver Grass, but their figures were illusory and their bodies were jet black.
Among these Blue Silver Grass, an old man stood out conspicuously.
The Blue Silver King said, "Since you are the Emperor's child, and his blood flows in your veins, then we have no choice but to let you ask the Emperor why this is happening."
"Why? What exactly happened here?"
Faced with Tang San's question, the Blue Silver King's lingering spirit felt annoyed. He was just a lingering spirit and had no interest in answering questions.
In an instant, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass began to emit a black light, echoing the lingering resentment of the Blue Silver Grass before him.
"Why is the Emperor treating us like this!" Blue Silver King roared to the sky, and the rest of the Blue Silver Grass trembled. Then, streams of evil energy rushed into Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, and his Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass was undergoing a different kind of transformation.
The Blue Silver Grass had previously absorbed the Cave Demon Spider, was now even blacker than before. Moreover, dark black barbs had sprouted from its stems, with blackish-red tips. A strange black aura swirled around the entire Blue Silver Grass Blue Silver Grass, and that blackness was entirely formed from the resentment between the Blue Silver Grass and the Blue Silver King.
Tang San was more or less affected; his eyes quickly turned bloodshot, filled with killing intent. A jet-black Blue Silver Overlord Spear, brimming with intense malevolence, appeared, causing trees to collapse and boulders to shatter wherever the spear tip passed.
Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, and he was panting heavily, repeatedly muttering, " Ye Ping'an! You ruined my teacher! I, Tang San, will never forgive you!"
Outside the forest, Tang Hao frowned. He could clearly feel an astonishing aura of resentment and malevolence erupting from the forest. The resentment was so thick that it was impossible to dissipate!
Tang Hao immediately disregarded whether his son was undergoing the awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline and rushed towards the spot where his son had left, wielding the Clear Sky Hammer.
Along the way, Tang Hao looked at the shocking scenes around him, his eyes filled with disbelief and horror.
"All the Blue Silver Grass in the forest is dead? That can't be!"
When Tang Hao arrived at the location of the Blue Silver King, a black spear suddenly appeared and accidentally slashed Tang Hao's shoulder, causing blood to spurt out instantly.
As the blood dripped to the ground, the black Blue Silver Grass that spread across the ground all swarmed around it, eagerly absorbing the blood completely.
Tang Hao felt a chill run down his spine upon seeing this scene. Was this Blue Silver Grass or a vampire?
" The Tang San!"
When Tang Hao looked in the direction of the Blue Silver Grass, he saw Tang San with bloodshot eyes, holding a jet-black Blue Silver Overlord Spear, the tip of which was dripping blood— Tang Hao's blood.
"Such powerful Soul Power. I believe I will break through smoothly after absorbing your power." Tang San smiled coldly, his face as cold as frost.
" Tang San! I'm Tang Hao! Your father!"
"I don't have a father!"
Tang San shouted and planted his Blue Silver Overlord Spear on the ground.
" Dark Blue Silver Domain!"
Tang Hao was overjoyed to see his son suddenly comprehend a new domain, but the Dark Blue Silver Domain was draining Tang Hao's life force.
Tang Hao is Titled Douluo, Dark Blue Silver Domain cannot absorb his energy unless Tang Hao actively releases it.
"What on earth happened? Where is the Blue Silver King? Why has the Blue Silver King disappeared?"
Tang Hao was convinced that the Blue Silver King must have been killed by someone. It was a ten- Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beast, and absorbing its Spirit Ring would be of great benefit to Spirit Master.
As for the son's sudden transformation, it's likely that the Blue Silver King's resentment after death led to a mutation in his Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Grass, causing it to mutate in a negative direction.
" Blue Silver Grass loves to suck blood, that's terrifying!" Tang Hao didn't even dare to think about what people would call his son if this were exposed to the outside world.
Is it just a simple Martial Soul Mutation?
No, this is Evil Spirit Master.
Tang San is the progenitor of Evil Spirit Master.
