The Blue Silver King's First Glimmer

"I happen to know where a suitable life-attribute plant-type soul beast is located. Follow me; it will save us quite a bit of time."

Seeing Tang Ya follow his suggestion, Su Qing smiled with satisfaction and turned back to say softly.

In this way, changing the direction of her cultivation to reach the Soul Douluo level would be absolutely no problem. As for that Blue Silver Emperor in the Sun Moon Empire, he would reserve it for Tang Ya in advance.

"Okay!"

The group followed Su Qing all the way, eventually arriving at a patch of barren land. Amidst the confused gazes of the others, Su Qing pointed to a touch of green clinging to a cliff not far away.

"This is a two-thousand-year-old Myriad Spirit Green Heart Vine. Although it is not as tough as a Diamond Vine, it excels in vitality and has an astonishing regenerative ability. A Thunder Hell Vine once grew in this area, but it self-destructed at the end of its cultivation. This place should have been barren, but this Myriad Spirit Green Heart Vine appeared from somewhere and has survived until now."

Su Qing led the group to the foot of the cliff and explained while pointing at the green vine. Bi Ji had told him all of this. At the time, thinking about the vitality-based path Tang Ya might take in the future, he had specifically asked Bi Ji. Unfortunately, the vitality of the Emerald Swan clan is not the same as that of Blue Silver Grass, but Bi Ji recommended many corresponding plant-type soul beasts to him, and this Myriad Spirit Green Heart Vine was one of them.

"Sister Xiao Ya, this soul beast has another special feature: you don't need to kill it to obtain its soul ring. You only need to take one-third of its body to acquire the soul ring it produces. The missing part will grow back within ten years."

Hearing this, the three were shocked. Aside from Huo Yuhao, they had all heard more or less about the strong survival capabilities of plant-type soul beasts, but this was the first time they had heard of one being strong enough to have its ring taken while alive.

"So amazing!!! But... it's growing so high up, how am I supposed to get its vine?"

Looking at the cliff hundreds of meters high, Tang Ya was troubled. She could not obtain the soul ring of a soul beast hunted by others, but she couldn't climb that high herself. Although she really wanted this soul ring, if she couldn't reach it, she would have to give up.

"Climbing up is indeed difficult, but Sister Xiao Ya, you can fly up."

Seeing Tang Ya's hesitant expression, Su Qing smiled. Under the effect of Light-Dark Intertwining, his first soul ring lit up. Tang Ya suddenly felt as if something had appeared behind her, supporting her. Turning her head, she vaguely saw a pair of transparent wings and immediately understood that Su Qing was helping her.

Without Su Qing deliberately controlling it, Tang Ya could fully control the wings on her back as she pleased. Although it was her first time flying in the sky, she quickly and successfully completed the task of flying up to pick a piece of vine.

In fact, Su Qing's Wind-Gathering Wing-Weaving could only attach wings to others if they were undefended, but most people would not specifically guard against a soul skill with no offensive power. Therefore, if used flexibly, it could achieve a surprise effect most of the time.

"Alright, Sister Xiao Ya, come down first. Once you finish absorbing the soul ring, there will be plenty of time to fly."

Seeing Tang Ya twisting and turning in the sky after getting the vine, Su Qing couldn't help but sigh. Sister Xiao Ya was still the same; her playful nature hadn't changed at all...

"Xiao Qing, does this soul skill consume a lot of soul power?"

After finally getting Tang Ya to settle down and absorb the soul ring, Bei Bei couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. If possible, he also wanted to experience the feeling of flying in the sky. But if maintaining this soul skill consumed too much of Su Qing's soul power, then forget it. After all, they were about to leave the Star Dou Great Forest, and if their soul power was depleted too much, they would immediately fall into a passive position if they encountered danger on the road.

"My soul skill has two uses. One is a short-distance, rapid directional displacement controlled by me, and the other is bestowing wings condensed from wind elements onto others, allowing them to fly autonomously. The former consumes a lot of soul power, but the latter hardly consumes any of my soul power at all."

For Su Qing, there was no need to hide the soul skills he displayed openly. To the outside world, his soul skill configuration was: Wind-Gathering Wing-Weaving, concealment of aura, and the Imprint of the Silver Hero Beast.

Furthermore, from Bei Bei's face, he could tell the intention behind the question. Since it wasn't prying with ulterior motives, he didn't need to be on guard.

"I see. Then, can you let me try flying too?"

The cat was out of the bag. Learning that this soul skill didn't consume much soul power, Bei Bei felt relieved and put forward his bold idea. There was no helping it; on the continent, apart from flight-type soul masters, one had to be at least a Soul Saint to fly. But now that the temptation of autonomous flight was right in front of him, he couldn't resist.

"Of course."

Su Qing smiled faintly, his soul ring flashed, and Bei Bei immediately floated up as well.

"Brother Su..."

Before Su Qing could sit down to guard Tang Ya, Huo Yuhao's weak voice came. Hearing the first three words, Su Qing guessed that he also wanted to experience the feeling of flying. Considering that his guarding of Tang Ya was already sufficient, he fulfilled this request for Huo Yuhao.

After about an hour and a half, Tang Ya finally finished absorbing the soul ring.

Unlike the sluggish feeling of soul power circulation when absorbing previous soul rings, this one felt as if it were tailor-made for her. It made her soul power flow extremely smoothly and significantly accelerated the speed of her soul power circulation, which made her ecstatic and filled her with gratitude as she looked at Su Qing.

"Sister Xiao Ya, what kind of soul skill did you obtain?"

Seeing Tang Ya open her eyes, Su Qing looked at her with curiosity. Honestly, he really couldn't guess what ability she would obtain after absorbing this soul ring. It couldn't be limb regeneration, could it? That would be too heaven-defying.

"Hehe, I was just about to tell you. Watch."

As she spoke, Tang Ya's third soul ring glowed slightly, and a handful of grass seeds appeared in her hand. Immediately after, she threw the seeds, and the moment they hit the ground, they grew wildly. In an instant, they completely obscured the two of them. And that wasn't all; the rapidly growing vines continued to scatter grass seeds, with an effect almost identical to the seeds Tang Ya had scattered.

In just half a quarter of an hour, this small patch of wasteland had become a Blue Silver forest.

"?Sister Xiao Ya, to grow so much Blue Silver Grass in such a short time, don't you run out of soul power?"

Looking at these Blue Silver vines that could be described as blotting out the sky and sun, even Su Qing was astonished. The plasticity of Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass martial soul was simply too strong.

"It consumes soul power when generating the initial grass seeds. The more seeds, the greater the consumption. But the autonomous growth after the seeds hit the ground has nothing to do with me, and the subsequent seeds scattered do not consume my soul power. Moreover, the grown Blue Silver Grass vines will completely obey my control. In other words, your Sister Xiao Ya can create a controllable Blue Silver forest whenever she wants! Hahahaha!"

This soul skill was indeed heaven-defying. Any Soul Elder or Soul Ancestor with the same configuration would completely lose the chance to defeat Tang Ya if they dragged the fight out for even a moment. This soul skill was invincible in a war of attrition. If Su Qing's guess was correct, the toughness of Tang Ya's Blue Silver Grass martial soul was now far higher than before, and faint white patterns had even appeared on the vines. This was a precursor to evolving into a Blue Silver Emperor.

"Eh? By the way, where are Bei Bei and the others?"
