Within the Small World, the Blue Silver Forest had expanded beyond sight.
Every Blue Silver Grass plant silently cultivated according to the Blue Silver Creation Technique, absorbing and exhaling the energy of heaven and earth.
They also fed part of the refined energy back into the world, forming a perfect cycle.
Lan Aotian stood atop the central Giant Tree Summit, overlooking this kingdom that belonged to him as he planned the future of his clan.
Just as he pondered how to turn the pill formula into practical support,
the system notification sounded at just the right moment.
[ Ding! Detected that the Blue Silver Grass population within the Palm World has met the requirement. The cultivation system has initially stabilized. The Elite Transformation Cultivation Plan may now be activated. ] [ Mission issued: Successfully guide at least three Blue Silver Grass Clan Members through Transformation (retaining cultivation and lifespan). ] [ Mission reward: One full application of Blue Silver Grass Specialized Organic Fertilizer (Heavenly Dao Essence Version) (limited to the Palm Blue Silver World). ] [ Note: Transformed clan members will serve as the Backbone Force for the clan's future ventures into the outside world. It is recommended to prioritize those with higher intelligence and cultivation at Venerable Lord level (10,000 Years) or above. ]
"Three transformed clan members? The reward is essence fertilizer that improves the soil of the entire Small World?"
A sharp glint flashed through Lan Aotian's eyes. This mission coincided perfectly with his plans, and its reward was exactly what he needed.
Though the Small World was excellent, its soil was still ordinary earth from the outside world, limiting his people's cultivation potential.
This Heavenly Dao Essence Version fertilizer sounded extraordinary just from its name.
"Accept the mission!"
He no longer hesitated. Connecting his thoughts to the pill formula's information, he raised both hands slightly.
Several rare herbs radiating different colors and auras flew in from hidden stores throughout the forest, hovering before him.
These were treasures the Blue Silver Grass Clan had collected and preserved by chance over countless years. They were now perfect as the primary and supplementary ingredients for Transformation Pills.
"Use Life Energy as fire, Soul Power as the furnace, the essence of plants as the catalyst. Fuse the spiritual workings of heaven and earth, and shape a perfect Dao Body..."
Lan Aotian closed his eyes and focused. Jade Green light surged around him as pure, vast Life Energy poured forth, transforming into a gentle Jade Flame that enveloped the herbs.
His Soul Power became countless fine threads, like the nimblest hands, precisely controlling the extraction, fusion, and refinement of every portion of Medicinal Power.
The entire process demanded extremely precise control over Soul Power and Mental Power, but Lan Aotian, who possessed Twin Soul Cores and immense Mental Power, was more than capable.
Time passed amid his concentration.
Seven days passed outside. Within the Small World, under Lan Aotian's slight adjustment of the time flow, roughly half a month went by.
At the Giant Tree Summit, the Jade Flame gradually receded.
Three pills the size of Dragon Eyes floated quietly in the air.
The pills were a gentle Azure Blue throughout.
Faint golden, profound patterns on their surfaces flickered like breathing.
They emitted a fragrance that calmed the mind and made life itself stir with joy.
"It's done! Grade 7 Transformation Pills, and they're of excellent quality."
"I didn't expect to succeed on my first try."
"Now I can be considered a Grade 7 Alchemist in the Douluo version."
Lan Aotian revealed a satisfied expression. Successfully refining three pills at once had exceeded even his expectations.
His gaze swept across the vast Blue Silver Forest below.
His mental will instantly connected with the three people he had long selected, all of whom had willingly chosen Transformation.
Three streaks of light shot over from different directions in the forest, landing beneath the platform atop the giant tree and revealing their true forms.
The one in the middle had broad grass leaves, with veins that had already turned pale gold. Her life fluctuations were the strongest. She was Lan Xin, a Venerable Lord who had reached 15,000 Years.
The two on either side had slightly weaker auras but solid foundations. Their grass leaves also bore faint golden patterns. Both had just reached the 10,000-Year threshold, their intelligence awakened, and they were filled with excitement and reverence at their Emperor's summons.
"Lan Xin, Lan Yu, Lan Ye."
"Our clan was born weak, but now we have a chance to rise."
"These are Grade 7 Transformation Pills refined by This Emperor. After taking them, you may shed your grass bodies and transform into perfect human bodies, retaining all your cultivation, abilities, talents, and long lifespans. You will also gain humanity's extraordinary cultivation talent and be able to freely switch between your true forms and Human Forms."
"This is a Great Opportunity, as well as an important step toward our clan's glory. Are you willing?"
Lan Aotian called their names. His voice was gentle, yet carried an emperor's majesty.
"We are willing to die for My Emperor! We are willing to devote everything to the rise of our clan!"
The three Blue Silver Grass plants simultaneously sent out unwavering waves of intent. Their leaves trembled softly with excitement.
"Good."
Lan Aotian flicked his finger, and the three Transformation Pills flew toward them respectively, swiftly absorbed by the three women.
The next moment, dazzling Azure Blue radiance erupted from all three places at once!
Within the light, grass leaves shrank, roots transformed, and their life forms underwent fundamental reconstruction and sublimation.
A moment later, the light gradually faded.
Three girls with distinct temperaments appeared upon the platform.
The girl in the center, and the strongest of the three, was Lan Xin.
She had transformed into a girl who looked around seventeen or eighteen years old.
She had a slender figure.
She wore a pale blue long dress embroidered with golden leaf-vein patterns.
Her features were exquisitely beautiful, and her Eyes were clear as a lake. Every glance carried a gentle yet composed air, while the Life Energy around her was the richest and most majestic.
The girl on the left was named Lan Yu.
She looked somewhat younger, around fifteen or sixteen, and wore a water-blue Jinzhuang. Her hair was tied into a neat ponytail, and her gaze was lively and spirited, filled with curiosity and eagerness. Her aura was keen and full of vitality.
The girl on the right was named Lan Ye.
She was more petite, wearing a tender green dress. Her features were delicate and adorable, and her eyes were pure. She seemed somewhat shy, yet her aura was steady and solid, giving others a sense of reassurance.
All Three Women faintly emitted the Blue Silver Imperial Clan aura that shared the same origin as Lan Aotian's, though it was far less concentrated than his.
Feeling their new bodies, the Soul Power surging within them, and their clearer perception of life, all of them showed disbelief, joy, and shock.
They knelt together, their voices trembling slightly with excitement:
"Lan Xin/Lan Yu/Lan Ye thank My Emperor for the grace of remaking us! We swear to follow My Emperor unto death and remain eternally loyal!"
Lan Aotian raised his hand slightly, and a gentle force lifted them up.
"You and I are family. There is no need for such ceremony."
"Transformation is only the beginning. On the path ahead, you must continue cultivating diligently."
"Lan Xin, your cultivation is the highest. For now, you will lead them. Guide Lan Yu and Lan Ye in becoming familiar with their Human Forms and powers. Assist in managing this world's daily order and supervise the clan members' cultivation."
"Lan Xin accepts the order!"
"Lan Yu and Lan Ye accept the order!"
[ Ding! Mission completed: Successfully guided three Blue Silver Grass Clan Members through Transformation. ] [ Distributing reward... ]
The moment the system notification ended, a wondrous change occurred throughout the Palm Blue Silver World.
It was not earth-shattering, but a nurturing that worked silently like spring rain.
Countless faint golden glimmers carrying an indescribable aura of creation fell from the sky. Like the finest dew, they evenly covered every inch of earth, every plant, and even the air itself throughout the world.
As this Heavenly Dao essence merged into the soil, the original dirt instantly became darker and more crystalline, as though it had gained life.
Its connection with the roots of the Blue Silver Grass became closer and more harmonious, transforming into Creation Spirit Soil most suitable for Blue Silver Grass growth.
When they landed on the Blue Silver Grass, they were swiftly absorbed. The Grass Leaves became more Jade Green, their golden patterns faintly gleamed, and every Blue Silver Grass plant let out a comfortable murmur. Their cultivation efficiency visibly increased.
The Spiritual Energy in the air also became richer and purer.
"This is the Heavenly Dao's congratulatory gift for our clan's first successful Transformations, as well as a great creation to nourish our clan's foundation."
Lan Aotian's voice spread throughout the world. "The soil of this world is no longer ordinary earth. It is spiritual soil exclusive to our clan."
"I hope you cherish this opportunity, cultivate diligently, and strive onward. Do not disappoint the grace of heaven, nor the path forged by This Emperor and the Three Pioneers!"
"Thanks to the grace of heaven! Thanks to My Emperor! Thanks to the three great pioneers!"
Torrential waves of grateful and reverent intent surged toward him. The Power of Faith throughout the Small World instantly boiled, becoming much more solid.
Lan Aotian could feel his own cultivation advancing another small but steady step.
Looking at the vibrant Blue Silver Forest below, with its limitless potential and further strengthened foundation,
as well as the three first transformed clan members before him, whose futures held boundless promise, Lan Aotian's heart swelled with heroic ambition.
This reward from the system had arrived at exactly the right time, completely solidifying the foundation for the Blue Silver Grass Clan's rise.
"You three should first consolidate your cultivation in this world and familiarize yourselves with everything."
Lan Aotian instructed Lan Xin and the other two, "Before long, This Emperor will have tasks for you."
"Yes!"
After making the arrangements, Lan Aotian's figure gradually faded as he left the Palm Blue Silver World.
