Absorbing the Blue Silver Emperor's Right Leg Bone; The Thirst for Truth

Over the days spent learning by Jiang Li's side, Tang San had gained a rough understanding of just how precious a hundred-thousand-year spirit bone truly was.

This was a genuine Blood River Treasure!

Driven by physical instinct, Tang San naturally longed to absorb it immediately.

Yet, the moment he remembered that this hundred-thousand-year spirit bone contained the majority of his great mother's origin...

"Master, can this spirit bone be used to return the origin energy within it back into Mother's body?"

Clearly, Jiang Li had not expected Tang San to make such a decision.

Such a filial disciple truly brought him great joy.

He could easily make Ah Yin reabsorb and refine the origin within this spirit bone; it would merely require him to utilize his Human Emperor Banner.

However...

Jiang Li did not intend to do so; he had long since planned everything out.

He met Tang San's hopeful gaze and told a white lie, "San, this exceeds your master's capabilities. However, absorbing this spirit bone will accelerate your growth, and I believe your mother would think the same."

"Furthermore, once you have grown strong in the future, using your own essence blood to nourish your mother may perhaps hasten her recovery."

As if to corroborate Jiang Li's words, Ah Yin's vines pointed toward the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone, signaling for Tang San to absorb it.

Yet, upon hearing Jiang Li suggest that Tang San could use his own essence blood to nourish her in the future, her entire grass form swayed violently.

Only now did she realize, with a delayed reaction, that this young man standing before her—whom her dear son called Master—was actually also a Blue Silver Emperor of their Blue Silver Grass clan?

Wait, no?

Is this right?

Counting her, the previous Blue Silver Emperor, there were actually three Blue Silver Emperors of the Blue Silver Grass clan appearing in the same era?

Tang San was the Blue Silver Crown Prince, and since she, the former Blue Silver Emperor, had effectively fallen, it was only natural for him to become the new Emperor; there was no issue with that.

But...

Ah Yin expressed that this question was too difficult; she did not know how to solve it.

Hearing his master speak in such a way, Tang San decided to absorb the spirit bone.

Even if it meant exhausting all his essence blood in the end just to bring his mother back to his side, so what?

His body, hair, and skin were gifts from his parents; he did not care!

There was no longer a shred of hesitation in Tang San's eyes.

He carefully reached out with both hands and lifted the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone from the box.

The moment his fingertips touched the spirit bone, a pure and icy sensation instantly coursed through his entire body.

Following that, a majestic surge of energy rushed through his meridians, charging straight into his limbs and bones.

Tang San took a deep breath to calm his surging emotions and slowly pressed the spirit bone against his right leg.

The instant the spirit bone made contact with his flesh—

BOOM—!!

Countless blue-gold rays of light erupted from within the spirit bone!

Tang San's body jolted violently; he felt as if his right leg had been tossed into a furnace, searing and scorching hot.

In the next moment, an endless, majestic life force surged out from the spirit bone like a bursting river, pouring madly into his body.

Yet, this energy showed not the slightest intention of harming him.

After experiencing the initial discomfort, that energy seemed to transform into a warm stream, flowing continuously through his body.

At the same time, in a town near Nuoding City, a middle-aged man who had been frantically reaping the lives of Martial Soul Hall disciples with his great hammer felt his body tremble unnaturally. His eyes turned blood-red, and he began to pant like an ox.

He tossed aside the corpse of a Martial Soul Hall deacon and stared fixedly in the direction of Holy Soul Village!

"Damn it, who moved Ah Yin's seal!"

When he spoke, he was practically roaring.

This person was none other than Tang Hao, who loved to hide in the gutters and stir up trouble.

Back when Tang San awakened his Twin Martial Souls, he had already scouted that the top-tier clown of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Xiaogang, was currently in the Nuoding City Soul Master Academy, swindling free meals and drinks.

Moreover, he had accidentally discovered that another hundred-thousand-year transformed spirit beast had also appeared there.

Tang Hao was overjoyed!

The time for the true rise of their Clear Sky Tang Clan had arrived!

Tang Hao figured that with this top-tier trash around, his son's early cultivation should be no problem.

In the future, when his son reached the later stages and needed to switch to cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer, he might even be able to obtain the cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls by leveraging the relationship between this trash and Bibi Dong.

Furthermore, that hundred-thousand-year transformed spirit beast would not be leaving Nuoding City anytime soon.

Tang Hao figured he might as well vent the anger he had bottled up for years by destroying a few branch halls of the Martial Soul Hall.

Although both he and the Clear Sky Sect were at fault for what happened back then, setting the facts aside, could one really say the Martial Soul Hall was blameless?

He even began to hypnotize himself, arriving at a rather abstract conclusion: everything was the fault of the Martial Soul Hall!

With that thought, Tang Hao gathered the soul power within his body. He cast a disdainful, downward glance at the Martial Soul Hall branch, where almost no one had survived, and brought his hammer down, reducing the structure to complete ruin.

Afterward, he pushed his soul power to the limit, racing toward the back mountain of Holy Soul Village.

No matter who you are, I will not let anyone who dares to harm Ah Yin go!

Tang Hao thought to himself, quickening his pace even further.

Returning to Jiang Li.

Time slipped away rapidly. Perhaps it was because there were three Blue Silver Emperor present, or perhaps it was Ah Yin's maternal love for Tang San that made her unable to bear harming her own child.

After a few hours, Tang San successfully refined the 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone.

His soul power surged rapidly, climbing all the way to level 30 before finally coming to a halt as he hit another bottleneck.

Yet, Tang San felt no joy at this breakthrough.

He was not truly as dense as a pig; after everything he had experienced, a basic suspicion had already taken root in his heart.

But such a reality was far too cruel for both him and his mother, and he desperately hoped his guess was wrong.

Recalling what his master had told him previously, he realized that his master must have known the truth all along, which was why he had been so hesitant.

After all, such a truth was too cruel for him to bear, which was why the other party had been unwilling to speak of it.

But now...

Looking at the miserable state of his mother, the urge to know the truth grew ever more desperate.

Tang San dropped to his knees before Jiang Li, his movements practiced in a way that was heart-wrenching to behold.

"Master, I beg you, please tell me everything you know about my mother!"
