Appearance

Following its Soul Bone evolution, the Martial Soul is a noble blue-gold grass with thicker, tougher stems and a lustrous vitality. After the Baptism Light, golden patterns spread through its crystalline leaves. 12 82

• Can manifest as individual grass blades, vines, forests, thorned cages, spears, a hammer, and humanoid vine constructs. 4 12 16 41
• Its vines can reach at least eight meters long and five meters wide when used to establish a Tree Realm. 12
• Surrounding ordinary plants respond to its presence, swaying or “bowing” to it after its evolution. 12 42

Background / History

Yao Yan awakened Blue Silver Grass at Holy Soul Village’s ceremony with Innate Soul Power level six. Although Su Yuntao considered the Martial Soul worthless, Yao Yan regarded its successful awakening as the result of years spent strengthening his body. 1

Rather than accepting Blue Silver Grass’s reputation as weak, Yao Yan pursued its resilience, vitality, and malleability. He concluded that sufficiently strong grass could become weapons—or even more complex forms—and began experimenting with its control over surrounding vegetation. 4

The Martial Soul underwent its defining evolution after Yao Yan absorbed the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone. Its color changed to blue-gold, its physical quality improved, and it gained bloodline-based pressure over plant-type Spirit Beasts. 12
