The Blue Silver King's Spirit Bone

Ye Yuan'er's beautiful eyes lit up with delight. In a flash, she was beside him, pulling Su Wen into her arms and giving him a vigorous squeeze.

"You little rascal! You didn't even come home yesterday!"

"Aunt Ye, haven't you noticed you've gotten bigger again? You're so soft!"

Su Wen breathed in the fragrance at the tip of her nose and struggled his way out of the valley.

Ye Yuan'er's ears turned red. She shot him an exasperated look, but still didn't let go, only loosening her grip a little.

Su Wen chuckled. "Teacher arranged a place for me to stay, and it was so late yesterday that I didn't come back... Aunt Ye, why are there so many strange flowers here? And it's so hot!"

Ye Yuan'er slowly released Su Wen and stared at him without blinking, as if he were a precious treasure.

She looked rather pleased with herself. "These flowers are extraordinary. They're unusual plants that grow on lava, and every single one is priceless. I specially gathered them to help with my cultivation. This is a cultivation resource used by the Elder Hall, also known as a Mimicry Cultivation Field."

Aunt Ye took his hand and showed him the various Flame Spirit Flowers in the courtyard. "The environment in a Mimicry Cultivation Field matches the attributes of one's Martial Soul. Cultivating in one speeds up your progress considerably. At home, it would take me three months to break through to level 94, but with a Mimicry Cultivation Field, I can cut that down to two. The hall also has some crystals collected from beneath the lava... Anyway, they're all treasures."

Su Wen understood. No wonder Chrysanthemum Douluo's courtyard was full of flowers and plants, too.

Besides being something Chrysanthemum Douluo personally liked, they also helped with his cultivation.

After walking around the room, Su Wen realized it was filled with all kinds of scorching-hot treasures. He smiled and said, "Aunt Ye, this place is amazing. Do you ever get so comfortable here that you forget about home?"

Ye Yuan'er gave him a look. Su Wen asked, "Are you busy right now?"

"Not for the moment. After becoming an elder, most of my time can be spent cultivating!"

"Great! Let's go to Blue Silver Forest!"

Ye Yuan'er was about to agree, but at the mention of Blue Silver Forest, she looked confused. "What are we going there for?"

"I suddenly have a feeling that my opportunity is waiting for me there!"

A quarter of an hour later, Ye Yuan'er took Su Wen out of Spirit Hall.

The two of them flew toward Star Dou Forest.

Ye Yuan'er didn't believe Su Wen's flimsy excuse.

But she had a vague idea of what was going on. Tang Hao's wife seemed to have some connection to Blue Silver Forest.

Blue Silver Forest bordered Star Dou Forest. By the time they arrived, dusk had fallen.

They spent the night resting in a town. At dawn, Ye Yuan'er took Su Wen into Star Dou Forest, where they found a forest of Blue Silver Grass among the mountains.

"So much Blue Silver Grass."

The moment he landed, Su Wen sensed an abundance of life force.

"Blue Silver Forest is a paradise for plant-type Spirit Beasts. It's called Blue Silver Forest because Blue Silver Grass is the most abundant plant here. Xiao Wen, what are we looking for?"

Aunt Ye took Su Wen's hand as they walked through the forest.

"Senluo Ghost Domain!"

Without another word, Su Wen activated his Domain ability.

He knew the Blue Silver King wouldn't be easy to find.

As a plant-type Spirit Beast, it was very good at hiding.

And it had cultivated for more than eighty thousand years, which showed just how cunning it was.

Without Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline, no Soul Master could find it.

But his Domain ability was different. Any concealment technique would be useless.

As soon as he activated his Domain, the ground beneath his feet became a sea of blood.

It rapidly spread outward, reaching a radius of three hundred meters in the span of a breath.

One by one, enchanting Other Shore Flowers bloomed from the blood sea, beautiful yet tragic.

Ghostly Souls emerged from the blood sea.

They drifted about, letting out mournful wails that disrupted the minds of nearby plant-type Spirit Beasts and made them tremble.

When the Blue Silver Grass around them was enveloped by the blood sea,

its life force withered by a tenth, and its branches and leaves were no longer as lush as before.

"Nothing!"

Su Wen couldn't sense the Blue Silver King, so he asked Ye Yuan'er to take him somewhere else.

Trusting him, Ye Yuan'er didn't ask why. She simply did as he said.

As time passed and Su Wen's Soul Power was nearly depleted, a warning in an old voice suddenly rang in his ears. "Human, leave this place at once!"

Hearing the voice, Su Wen let out a long breath of relief.

He'd found the Blue Silver King.

Xiao Sanzi, you're finished.

You'll be an ugly man for the rest of your life!

"You're asking for death!"

Ye Yuan'er had naturally heard the voice, too.

At first, she had been startled, thinking a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was hiding here.

But after sensing it carefully, she realized it was only around eighty thousand years old.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red!

The instant her ninth Spirit Ring appeared, the oppressive might of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast enveloped the surrounding space.

The Blue Silver Grass around them trembled. Then, with a cry of a phoenix,

roiling flames surged upward, gathering in the air into a Fire Phoenix. Its terrifying presence swept across heaven and earth in an instant.

Ye Yuan'er quickly pinpointed the Blue Silver King's location, and an enormous pressure descended upon it.

"A Titled Douluo!"

At a giant vine not far away, an old man's face quickly formed in the middle of the vine, his expression terrified and shocked.

Chapter 15: The Blue Silver King's Spirit Bone

"Humans, I don't know what you're looking for, but what you want definitely isn't here."

The Blue Silver King's heart raced. It had sensed them as soon as they entered Blue Silver Forest.

It had even noticed that they were searching for something.

It just hadn't expected one of them to be a Titled Douluo—and a fire-attribute one, at that.

It wasn't good at fighting to begin with, and now it had encountered someone who countered it.

The Blue Silver King was truly panicking.

"It's astonishing that Blue Silver Grass could cultivate for eighty thousand years and even learn to speak before reaching a hundred thousand years!"

This was Ye Yuan'er's first time encountering anything like this, and her eyes were full of curiosity.

But her hands never stopped moving.

At that moment, Ye Yuan'er began to understand what Xiao Wen had been looking for.

This Spirit Beast definitely had some connection to Tang Hao's wife.

"Fourth Spirit Skill: Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix!"

The instant the Spirit Ring lit up, flock after flock of giant birds flew out from behind Ye Yuan'er, their feathers wreathed in flames.

They beat their wings, and blazing fire surged all around them.

The terrifying heat made the Blue Silver Grass nearby wither on the spot.

Seeing this, the Blue Silver King knew it had no choice but to fight.

It lashed out with its vines at the firebirds, hoping to keep them from getting closer.

But every time a vine struck a bird, the bird scattered—and the vine caught fire.

To keep the flames from reaching its core, the Blue Silver King had no choice but to sever its own limbs to survive.

In just a short while, all the vines on its body had been burned away.

The Blue Silver King summoned more vines and twisted them together into a defensive barrier.

"Humans, please leave at once. My Spirit Ring isn't suitable for you, and you don't need any more Spirit Rings. Besides, if you really kill me, my Emperor won't let you get away with it when she returns."

"Sixth Spirit Skill: Phoenix Dancing in the Nine Heavens!"

A cry from a phoenix was the Blue Silver King's answer. A giant phantom phoenix appeared overhead.

With it came a wave of searing heat. The phantom phoenix spat out a column of lava, and even before the flames reached them, heat shimmered above the ground.

The phoenix beat its wings, whipping up tornadoes from every direction. They swept along with raging flames, murderous and unstoppable.

Alarm bells rang in the Blue Silver King's mind, and it continued summoning vines to protect itself.

But as soon as the flames touched the vines, they caught fire. No matter how desperately the Blue Silver King summoned more, it couldn't stop the fire tornadoes and lava columns coming from every direction.

"No... no..."

The Blue Silver King let out a piercing wail as the tornado lifted its entire body into the air and tore it out of the ground, roots and all.

When everything finally fell silent, the Blue Silver King's body had been burned to ash. A black Spirit Ring floated in the air, with a glimmering Spirit Bone beneath it.

Ye Yuan'er landed and picked it up, delight shining in her beautiful eyes.

"Xiao Wen, there's a Spirit Bone!"

Su Wen came over and was quite satisfied to see that not a trace of the Blue Silver King's body remained.

Without the Blue Silver King, it would be almost impossible for Tang San to transform his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul into the Blue Silver Emperor.

He glanced at the Spirit Bone in Aunt Ye's hand, secretly delighted at this unexpected gain.

"Xiao Wen, it's a right leg bone. Take it and absorb it. Even though it came from a plant-type Spirit Beast, an eighty-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone is still top quality!"
