Because the targets for both Tang Yin and Tang San's first soul rings were over a century old, Director Su led them deep into the Soul Hunting Forest, preparing to search in the innermost perimeter.

As they drew closer to the heart of the forest, the surrounding trees grew taller and denser, the light became dimmer, and the air was filled with a primitive and dangerous aura.

The roars of various soul beasts and the chirping of insects intertwined, keeping their nerves taut.

At noon on the third day, as the trio crossed a river valley, Tang Yin suddenly made a discovery.

On a cliff face not far away, there seemed to grow a plant-type soul beast he had read about in the Notting Academy library—one that excelled in life and recovery, possessed active offensive capabilities, and boasted exceptional toughness.

"Director Su, Little San, look over there!" Tang Yin pointed ahead and to the side, filled with excitement and surprise.

On a shaded, damp rock wall, a vine as thick as a child's arm, appearing as if carved from jade, hung down from a crevice in the stone.

Its body was crystalline and translucent, with a faint green halo flowing within, radiating a vibrant vitality that was refreshing to behold.

Compared to the dark green moss and ferns surrounding it, it stood out remarkably!

"It's an Evergreen Vine! Judging by its appearance, its age is definitely not low; it's likely approaching four hundred years!" After a careful inspection, Director Su's eyes lit up with pleasant surprise, and he turned to nod approvingly at Tang Yin.

"Tang Yin, you have a keen eye!"

"The Evergreen Vine is a decent plant-type soul beast. With nearly four hundred years of cultivation, its soul ring is very suitable for Little San to absorb!"

In the world of soul masters, it is common knowledge that plant-type martial souls should absorb soul rings from plant-type soul beasts.

Therefore, Director Su highly approved of Tang Yin's choice to have Tang San absorb the soul ring of this nearly four-hundred-year-old Evergreen Vine.

"Little San, how about you absorb the soul ring of this Evergreen Vine as your first soul ring?" After discovering the vine, Tang Yin asked.

Tang San looked at the Evergreen Vine, which swayed gently in the breeze and radiated a vigorous life force, and without a moment's hesitation, he nodded heavily.

"I listen to Big Brother!"

Having confirmed the target, Director Su signaled for the brothers to step back. He then summoned his longsword martial soul, and with one white, one yellow, and one purple soul ring rising from beneath his feet, he cautiously approached.

Sensing the threat, the emerald main vine of the Evergreen Vine shuddered violently. Several thinner vines shot out like vipers leaving their den, whipping toward Director Su with a whistling sound, while even more vines surged frantically from the rock crevices, attempting to entangle and bind him.

As a level 38 Soul Elder, Director Su had more than enough strength to deal with a four-hundred-year-old plant-type soul beast.

Facing the incoming vines, Director Su let out a low shout and activated his soul skill, making his longsword even sharper. With a few swings, he severed all the attacking vines and steadily closed in on the main body of the Evergreen Vine.

However, green light swirled at the severed ends of the Evergreen Vine, causing them to heal rapidly while simultaneously sprouting new vines. Its toughness and tenacious vitality were truly astonishing.

While Director Su was locked in battle with the Evergreen Vine, Tang Yin reached out to pat Tang San on the shoulder and said earnestly.

"Little San! Do you trust me?"

"Of course I trust Big Brother!" Tang San nodded without hesitation.

"The development path I've planned for your Blue Silver Grass martial soul might be a bit different from other plant-type soul masters."

"In my view, when cultivating a martial soul, one should naturally develop what the martial soul is best at!" Tang Yin said with deep emotion.

"Little San, the Blue Silver Grass is the weakest plant-type soul beast on the continent, yet it grows everywhere—whether on cliffs, in desolate lands, on grasslands, in deserts, or even on ice fields."

"This shows just how tenacious its life force is!"

"Therefore, in my opinion, cultivating the Blue Silver Grass should naturally focus on strengthening this aspect by continuously absorbing soul rings from top-tier plant-type soul beasts that possess powerful life forces, excel in growth and recovery, and have strong restorative capabilities."

"By doing so, you will enhance the growth and recovery speed of your Blue Silver Grass, grant it powerful restorative abilities, and reduce the consumption of your soul power."

"Top-tier plant-type soul beasts are never lacking in toughness, either. Absorbing their soul rings will also increase the toughness of your Blue Silver Grass martial soul!"

"This way, when you face enemies in the future, even if they manage to cut your Blue Silver Grass,"

"Under the effects of various soul skills that boost growth speed and recovery, your Blue Silver Grass can instantly sprout even more vines. It can also absorb various energies and convert them into soul power, reducing the drain on your own reserves and wearing the enemy down until they collapse!"

"This is the most suitable development path for the Blue Silver Grass, and its greatest strength. I call it: Extreme Life Flow!"

"Extreme Life Flow..."

After hearing Tang Yin's words, Tang San felt nothing but excitement and thrill, his heart filled with anticipation.

Compared to Yu Xiaogang's theory of "Snake-Spider Control Flow," his big brother's Extreme Life Flow not only had soul ring attributes that were more compatible with the Blue Silver Grass, but it was also clearly more difficult to deal with and more powerful once successfully cultivated!

Just thinking about the future, where he could use his Blue Silver Grass to control his enemies...

The scene of his big brother charging forward, unleashing the formidable close-combat prowess of the Tang Sect's peerless Mysterious Jade Body and Purple Demon Eye to pummel an enemy to death, filled Tang San with immense excitement.

Moreover, if he could control the enemy, wouldn't they be even less capable of dodging his hidden weapons?

This would not only allow for better coordination with his big brother but also perfectly align with the path of hidden weapons.

It was truly the most suitable path for him!

"Big brother, I understand!"

"From now on, my Blue Silver Grass will be responsible for control, support, and recovery, creating the best offensive opportunities for your Mysterious Jade Hand!"

"With us brothers working together—one controlling, one attacking—as long as life persists, the battle never ends. We will surely be invincible!"

Tang San clenched his fists, his voice filled with agitation and excitement.

At this moment, Director Su finally approached the main vine of the Evergreen Vine. After stabbing his long sword into it, emerald green sap splashed out.

The Evergreen Vine shuddered violently, its luster rapidly dimming as its vitality began to dissipate.

"Tang San! Hurry, the final blow!"

Director Su retreated quickly, urging Tang San urgently and beckoning him over.

Once Tang San arrived, Director Su hurriedly handed him a sharp dagger, instructing him to deliver the final blow.

After Tang San gripped the dagger, severed the main root of the Evergreen Vine, and pulled it from the rock wall, a large amount of yellow light particles continuously drifted out, forming a century-old spirit ring.

Then, under Director Su's instruction, Tang San sat cross-legged, released his Blue Silver Grass martial soul, and drew the spirit ring toward him.

Soon, the spirit ring of the Evergreen Vine settled onto his Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, and a surge of majestic spirit power was instantly released, pouring into Tang San's body.

Under the watchful eyes of Tang Yin and Director Su, several hours passed.

Tang San finally succeeded in absorbing this nearly four-hundred-year-old Evergreen Vine spirit ring. His Blue Silver Grass martial soul had undergone a complete transformation, becoming a blue-silver vine with a slightly crystalline surface, its leaves unfurled and brimming with vitality.

A century-old spirit ring circled and hovered around Tang San's body.

"Tang San, congratulations!"

Seeing Tang San successfully absorb his first spirit ring, Director Su immediately wore a smile and offered his congratulations.

"Tang San, come and try out your first spirit skill!"

Tang Yin felt a mix of nervousness and anticipation in his heart, eager to see if Tang San's first spirit skill was exactly as he had imagined.

"Alright, big brother!"

Tang San was also filled with excitement.

Because after absorbing this Evergreen Vine spirit ring, his Mysterious Heaven Skill had finally broken through to the second level!

As expected, the reason he had been stuck at the peak of the first level was because he hadn't absorbed a spirit ring!

Afterward, under the gaze of Tang Yin and Director Su, Tang San focused his mind and activated his Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

As the first spirit ring around his body suddenly lit up, amidst a ripple of spirit power, the Blue Silver Grass martial soul in Tang San's hand instantly bloomed with a blue-silver radiance, growing rapidly and continuously splitting and spreading.

Sensing the information fed back from his first spirit ring, Tang San pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Big brother, the effect of my first spirit skill is that by consuming spirit power, I can significantly increase the growth and recovery speed of my Blue Silver Grass martial soul, while simultaneously enhancing its toughness!"

"And after absorbing this first spirit ring, I discovered that I can control my Blue Silver Grass martial soul to launch attacks!"

As he spoke, Tang San controlled the Blue Silver Grass, which had transformed into a vine, to rapidly wrap around a small tree, or lash out fiercely at a large tree, sending wood chips flying from the impact.

"Not bad!"

Upon learning the effect of Tang San's first spirit skill, Tang Yin was very satisfied and said with a smile.

"This spirit skill perfectly fits the Extreme Life Flow development path I've arranged for you!"

"Give it a name!"

"My martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, and this spirit ring comes from the Evergreen Vine."

"Let's call it Blue Silver Evergreen!"

Tang San thought for a moment before replying.
