First Soul Skill, Blue Silver Sharpening!

Time flowed by imperceptibly, and Tang San felt the initial discomfort from absorbing the Whale Rubber gradually dissipate.

An indescribable sense of comfort rapidly flooded his entire body.

Hmm... it feels even more satisfying than that, doesn't it?

Don't let his past life fool you; while he was single-mindedly focused on tinkering with hidden weapons, there were times when he felt restless and would reward himself.

Before long, Tang San felt a surge of vigorous power continuously pouring into his limbs and bones.

When he reopened his eyes, he clenched his fists in pleasant surprise.

He discovered that although his Soul Power Level remained at the tenth rank, his physique and blood vitality had improved by more than a notch, visible to the naked eye.

He even felt that the circulation of his Mysterious Heaven Skill within his body was several times smoother than before, no longer having the slightest bit of stagnation.

"Since you're done absorbing it, it wouldn't be too late to put on your clothes before getting excited."

Jiang Li's voice drifted over slowly, and only then did Tang San realize he was still stark naked.

For no reason, a flush of shame crept onto his young face.

His appearance just now was truly too disrespectful in front of his master.

He immediately cleaned the filth from his body, changed into his clothes, and stood obediently before Jiang Li.

"Let's go, Little San."

Jiang Li walked in front, and Tang San followed obediently behind...

After a long journey, the master and disciple finally arrived at the outskirts of the Sunset Forest.

Along the way, Jiang Li hadn't been idle.

He had meticulously explained the distribution of powers on the Douluo Continent and some necessary knowledge for spirit masters to Tang San, ensuring that Tang San was no longer the novice who understood nothing.

"Little San, you must remember: when hunting spirits, the most terrifying things are usually not the spirit beasts, but the spirit masters with ulterior motives."

Jiang Li led Tang San through the outer area with ease, seemingly turning a blind eye to the dangers that could be encountered at any moment.

However, he had expanded his soul power; relying on the status of his Blue Silver King martial soul, almost all the Blue Silver Grass in the Sunset Forest became his eyes and ears, allowing him to quickly locate the target spirit beast.

Hearing this, Tang San nodded repeatedly. Having memories of his past life, he naturally had deep experience with this.

Now that he and Jiang Li had entered the Sunset Forest, he also kept a constant watch on the surroundings.

He naturally trusted his master's strength, but he also felt that he should at least not bring trouble to him.

Soon, as the two ventured deeper, a meadow with a rich aura of life came into their view.

Through the information transmitted by the Blue Silver Grass, he quickly identified a plant-type spirit beast suitable for Tang San: a Bauhinia Bamboo with 650 years of cultivation.

"Little San, this spirit beast should be able to grant you a spirit skill that hardens or metallicizes your Blue Silver Grass. However, how you develop the spirit skill specifically will depend on your own comprehension."

After Jiang Li finished speaking, he raised his hand and cast Blue Silver Entanglement.

Countless Blue Silver Grass vines burst from the ground, and in just a moment, they bound the bamboo into a tight bundle.

With a forceful pull, the 650-year-old Bauhinia Bamboo was crudely uprooted.

"Did you see clearly? The Blue Silver Entanglement just now was a change in the properties of Blue Silver Grass that I deduced using the characteristics of my martial soul. Once you obtain your first spirit ring, you should be able to develop a similar effect."

Following that, he signaled for Tang San to take out a dagger and sever the roots of the Bauhinia Bamboo, which would allow him to easily obtain the spirit ring.

He also specifically noted that only the person who dealt the final blow could absorb the spirit ring dropped by the spirit beast.

Tang San nodded. As a disciple of the Tang Sect, his storage Soul Tool was never short of such controlled blades.

He brushed his storage ring, took out a machete he had forged earlier, gripped it in his hand, and hacked repeatedly at the roots of the Bauhinia Bamboo.

Soon, the Bauhinia Bamboo twitched unnaturally, and a deep yellow spirit ring slowly rose from the severed end.

Learning the method Jiang Li had taught him on the way, he guided the spirit ring onto himself, sat cross-legged, and began to absorb it.

Seeing Tang San begin to absorb the spirit ring, Jiang Li did not remain idle.

He began to use his spiritual power to connect with the ubiquitous Blue Silver Grass, asking them to help him find the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well or a place shrouded in special poisonous miasma.

Although this spirit ring was over 650 years old, Jiang Li was not worried in the slightest.

Not to mention that the boy's body had already been strengthened by the Whale Rubber, the power of luck on him and the gods above would never allow Tang San to explode and die while absorbing a spirit ring.

As time passed, the absorption of Tang San's first spirit ring reached its end.

A faint pressure of soul power erupted from within his body, spreading toward the surroundings.

Soon, the deep yellow spirit ring hovered quietly at his feet, and the Blue Silver Grass in his hand also underwent a subtle change.

The silver veins originally attached to his Blue Silver Grass began to show tiny golden dots.

According to Jiang Li's speculation, perhaps after Tang San absorbed two or three more suitable spirit rings, his martial soul could autonomously evolve into the Blue Silver Emperor.

And if he absorbed suitable immortal herbs, this process might even be accelerated.

In that case, only after Tang San completed the coronation of his martial soul from Blue Silver Crown Prince to Blue Silver Emperor would he be able to claim the system's rewards, allowing his own martial soul to evolve from Blue Silver King into another Blue Silver Emperor—perfectly exploiting this bug.

"How is it, Little San? What kind of soul skill did you obtain?"

Tang San walked excitedly to Jiang Li's side and summoned his Blue Silver Grass. "Master, it is exactly as you guessed. My Blue Silver Grass can now undergo autonomous metallization, and furthermore..."

As he spoke, he activated his first soul ring and plucked a few leaves from his Blue Silver Grass, holding them in his hand as a flash of purple light flickered in his eyes.

"First soul skill, Blue Silver Sharpening!"

Tang San then controlled the leaves in his hand, launching them toward a tree ahead with a specialized technique.

Swish, swish, swish—

Jiang Li stepped forward to see that the Blue Silver Grass leaves had embedded themselves deep into the tree trunk.

He could already imagine the terrifying power this kid would unleash once his soul power grew higher and he combined it with his Blue Silver Grass hidden weapons.

Good heavens, it really is terrifying!
