Blue Silver Forest, Blue Silver King Trembles: Has the Emperor Returned? (Seeking Follow-up Reading!)

Even the nerves that had been taut with fear just a moment ago relaxed, as if he were standing in the heart of a vibrant, thriving forest.

Beside Xu Zhao, Lan Yiyi, who had been watching with curiosity, now had her beautiful eyes wide open, her hands covering her small mouth.

As a possessor of the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, her perception was a thousand times more intense than that of Su Yuntao!

"This aura... so pure!

So noble!"

Lan Yiyi could feel it clearly.

The Martial Soul within her own body was bowing in worship toward that man; it was a submission and intimacy that originated from the very depths of her bloodline.

"Could it be... that Brother Zhao also awakened Blue Silver Grass?

And its quality is even higher than mine?!"

Right under their shocked gazes.

Xu Zhao slowly opened his eyes.

A blade of grass, looking ordinary yet radiating a faint blue-gold halo, hovered quietly in his palm.

Blue Silver Grass!

The universally acknowledged trash Martial Soul of Douluo Continent!

"This..."

Su Yuntao looked at the Blue Silver Grass in Xu Zhao's hand, completely dumbfounded.

He rubbed his eyes, then rubbed them again, confirming he hadn't seen wrong.

A peerless expert capable of flight, suspected to be a Title Douluo, had gone to such great lengths to awaken a Martial Soul.

And the result was just... Blue Silver Grass?!

The contrast was simply too jarring!

"Your... Your Excellency..."

Su Yuntao spoke cautiously, terrified of offending this big shot:

"Is the... is the Martial Soul you awakened... Blue Silver Grass?"

However, looking at the Blue Silver Grass in his hand, there was not a trace of disappointment on Xu Zhao's face; instead, he revealed a satisfied smile.

"Not bad."

Xu Zhao whispered to himself.

Although it was only a blade of Blue Silver Grass.

Xu Zhao could clearly feel that this Blue Silver Grass was fundamentally different from the ordinary variety.

It connected his Sun and Moon Martial Souls, acting like a bridge that perfectly fused the powers of the yin and yang poles together.

He could use this as a foundation to attempt to condense a third Soul Core.

Furthermore...

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the introductory mission!]

[Distributing rewards...]

[Martial Soul quality evolution initiated!]

Just as a thought crossed Xu Zhao's mind.

The Blue Silver Grass in his hand suddenly flared with brilliant light!

Intricate and mysterious Golden Patterns began to emerge on the originally pale blue leaves, resembling ancient totems.

The blades grew rapidly in length and width, and the once delicate stem became as crystalline as jade, exuding an indestructible aura.

A pressure belonging to a king radiated from this tiny blade of grass, instantly sweeping across the entire room!

"What... what is happening?!"

Su Yuntao was forced back repeatedly by this sudden pressure, landing hard on his backside, his face full of horror.

Is this really still Blue Silver Grass?!

Whose Blue Silver Grass could possibly have this kind of presence?!

Beside him, Lan Yiyi's delicate body trembled, and she nearly collapsed to her knees.

That was the absolute suppression of a superior!

"Blue Silver King..."

Lan Yiyi murmured to herself, her eyes filled with disbelief:

"The Blue Silver Grass Brother Zhao awakened... it actually evolved into a Blue Silver King in such a short time?!"

The light gradually faded.

By now, the Blue Silver Grass in Xu Zhao's hand had been completely transformed.

[Ding! Martial Soul Evolution successful!]

[Current Martial Soul: Blue Silver King (Top-tier plant-type Martial Soul, possesses the potential to evolve into Blue Silver Emperor)]

[Reward Issued: Innate Soul Power +1 (Limit of Innate Full Soul Power broken, current Innate Soul Power: Level 11)]

Feeling the soul power within his body rise to level 95.

And that sense of lightness, as if some kind of shackle had been broken.

The smile on the corner of Xu Zhao's mouth deepened.

Third Martial Soul, Blue Silver King, awakening successful!

Moreover, this was just the beginning.

With this Blue Silver King as a medium, his insights into life, as well as yin and yang, would reach an even higher level.

Xu Zhao's Blue Silver King.

It was different from normal Blue Silver Grass/King/Emperor.

It possessed both the Ultimate Fire of the sun and the Ultimate Darkness of the moon.

Much like Lan Xuanyu from the fourth installment.

Lan Xuanyu inherited the bloodlines of the Silver Dragon King and the Golden Dragon King.

He awakened twin Blue Silver Grasses.

One with a Golden Pattern, focusing on elements.

One with a Silver Pattern, focusing on strength.

My Blue Silver King would be more accurately called the Sun Moon Blue Silver King.

Xu Zhao sensed the Blue Silver King bloodline that had suddenly appeared within his body.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

This was a true "Sun Moon Blue Silver King"!

[Ding! Detected that the host has successfully awakened the third Martial Soul.]

[New mission released: Obtain the first soul ring for the "Sun Moon Blue Silver King".]

[Mission Rewards: Soul Ring Age Increase Card (10,000 years) x1, Optional Soul Bone Part x1.]

Looking at the system panel popping up on his retina, Xu Zhao withdrew the Martial Soul from his palm, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"The first soul ring, huh..."

For Xu Zhao.

The first soul ring for this third Martial Soul naturally couldn't be just any random hundred-year-old Mandala Snake like an ordinary soul master would settle for.

Since it was a "Blue Silver King", it had to have a king's ring that matched its status.

In Xu Zhao's mind, a target was locked onto instantly.

In the original work, there was a Blue Silver King with a cultivation of 85,000 years that ruled over all the Blue Silver Grass in that forest.

It was precisely this one that helped Tang San awaken his Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.

"This Blue Silver King is the most suitable first soul ring for the Sun Moon Blue Silver King Martial Soul."

Xu Zhao's mouth curled up slightly.

Devouring that 85,000-year-old Blue Silver King.

Not only would it provide massive nourishment to his "Sun Moon Blue Silver King", but it would also directly cut off one of Tang San's paths!

Without the Blue Silver King.

How would Tang San awaken his Blue Silver Emperor bloodline?

"Let's go."

Xu Zhao didn't hesitate in the slightest, turning to look at Su Yuntao, who was still in a daze.

"Ah?

Go?

Where to?"

Su Yuntao hadn't yet recovered from the shock of just a moment ago when he felt his shoulder tighten once again.

Whoosh--!

The familiar sensation of weightlessness struck again.

This time, Xu Zhao's speed was even faster than when they arrived.

Su Yuntao only felt the scenery before his eyes turn into streaks of light, the gale rushing into his mouth, preventing him from even screaming.

In less than ten minutes.

The three of them had returned to the office of the Notting City Spirit Hall branch.

"Ugh..."

The moment his feet touched the ground, Su Yuntao clutched the corner of the table and dry-heaved, his face deathly pale and his legs as limp as noodles.

Xu Zhao stood with his hands behind his back, watching the disheveled Su Yuntao with a tone that was calm yet carried an unquestionable air of authority:

"What happened today stays buried in your gut."

"If I hear even the slightest whisper of this..."

Xu Zhao did not finish his sentence; he merely flicked his finger lightly.

Hiss!

A tiny, golden-red flame shot out instantly, striking the crystal ball used for testing spirit power on Su Yuntao's desk with pinpoint precision.

There was not a single sound.

That incredibly hard crystal ball had vaporized in an instant, leaving not even a speck of dust behind!

"Hiss--!"

Su Yuntao gasped, terrified out of his wits. He collapsed to his knees with a thud and began kowtowing until his head hit the floor with loud, rhythmic bangs:

"Rest assured, Your Excellency!

I swear it!

I will keep my mouth absolutely shut!"

"I didn't see anything today!

Nothing happened at all!

I just tripped on the street and knocked my brain loose!"
