Martial Soul's First Evolution, the Might of Lightning Emerges!

Zhou Tao took out a small shovel, planted the Blue Silver Emperor in a small flowerpot, and placed it in his basket.

Then, with the basket on his back, he began feeling around the upper-right side of the stone chamber mentioned in the original work for the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

He remembered that Tang Hao had hidden the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone inside a recess in the stone wall.

After searching through the small stone chamber, he quickly found the black square box hidden in the recess of the stone wall.

Zhou Tao's heart immediately surged with excitement as he swiftly took out the black box.

When he opened it, he found a blue-gold bone inside, crystal-clear like a gem and radiating specks of blue life energy.

The instant he opened the box, Zhou Tao felt an incomparably intense craving arise from the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul within him.

"As expected of a Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone—a peerless treasure!"

"Once I absorb it, I can immediately gain two powerful Spirit Skills."

"My Martial Soul will immediately be transformed and upgraded."

"And there won't be any side effects!"

That was why a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Bone was so valuable, second only to a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring.

One could absorb a Spirit Bone even without a Spirit Ring!

However, absorbing a Spirit Ring placed requirements on one's physique.

Zhou Tao did not immediately absorb the Spirit Bone. Instead, he stored the box in his Soul Tool.

The Soul Tool had been a gift from Director Su.

Even Tang San, who had reached the Soul King level and possessed the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline in the original work, had taken three whole days to absorb the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

Zhou Tao was only a level 10 Spirit Master. Absorbing the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone might take him ten days, or even half a month.

If Tang Hao suddenly returned, things would become extremely troublesome.

Therefore, Zhou Tao would not absorb the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone here.

He quickly cleared away all traces from the scene, then planted an ordinary Blue Silver Grass in the same spot.

Zhou Tao placed some wild fruit in the basket to conceal the Blue Silver Emperor, then swiftly left the valley.

After quietly traveling along the way and erasing his tracks, he secretly arrived at a small city northwest of Nuoding City.

Zhou Tao hired a carriage and headed all the way toward the Star Dou Great Forest along a route far from the Spirit Beast Forest.

He planned to find his first Spirit Ring there.

After all, the Star Dou Great Forest was far from Nuoding City, so he would not need to worry about threats from Tang Hao and the others.

Moreover, after obtaining his first Spirit Ring, he could head directly to Heaven Dou Imperial City and look for an opportunity to approach Dugu Bo, Douluo Continent's foremost investor, then find a way to obtain an Immortal Herb opportunity from him.

Once he obtained an Immortal Herb, he could greatly improve his physique and thereby absorb Spirit Rings of higher age.

The carriage traveled for half a month before finally reaching Suville Town outside the Star Dou Great Forest.

He rented a secluded little courtyard in town. After preparing ample food and fresh water, he hid in the cellar and began absorbing the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

Because fusing with the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone would cause quite a disturbance, he needed to hide.

Moreover, this cellar had been built beneath a small house, perfectly concealing any unusual activity.

After making thorough arrangements, Zhou Tao took out the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

"Finally, I can absorb the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone!"

Zhou Tao was so excited that it took him quite some time to calm down.

Suppressing his excitement, he removed the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone from the black box and pressed it against his right leg.

A brilliant blue-gold radiance burst from the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, illuminating the entire cellar.

Immediately afterward, the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone transformed into a mass of blue-gold light and fused into the shinbone of Zhou Tao's right leg.

Zhou Tao felt a vast torrent of Soul Power and life energy surge from his right leg into his body.

He hurriedly sat cross-legged and began cultivating.

That pure blue-gold energy continuously flowed through his entire body, merging into every part of him, nourishing his body, purging impurities from his flesh, and widening his meridians.

Zhou Tao gradually fell asleep.

At the same time, Zhou Tao's Lightning Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul was also baptized by that blue-gold energy, while his entire body underwent sublimation and replenishment.

It began growing stronger without pause.

The Lightning Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul became thicker and longer, while its leaves became more substantial.

Its color changed from blue to blue-gold.

Half a month passed.

The Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, which had originally been the size of a small sapling, became a long vine as thick as a wooden stick, blue-gold throughout, with bark as crystalline as blue crystal.

A vigorous aura of life radiated from the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

At the same time, crackling thunder began to sound from the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

The tiny electric arcs that had once covered the Lightning Blue Silver Grass had actually transformed into lightning bolts as thick as thumbs.

The Lightning Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul had evolved into a powerful form.

Zhou Tao slowly opened his eyes. Looking around and seeing the entire cellar covered by the stick-thick Blue Silver Grass vines, he immediately understood everything.

"The Lightning Blue Silver Grass has transformed!"

"From a frail little sapling, it has become a resilient vine crackling with lightning."

"Its life force, toughness, and entangling ability have all greatly increased with its vitality, giving it naturally powerful control."

"As expected, my path is correct."

"The Blue Silver Grass now possesses powerful control thanks to its immense vitality, along with powerful Soul Power and lightning."

"If this thumb-thick lightning struck Yu Xiaogang, it would absolutely electrocute the shit out of him, even if I don't have a Spirit Ring yet."

"The power of lightning should correspond to the Thunder God of the God Realm."

"The Thunder God was originally a first-class deity second only to a God King. He was immensely powerful and exceptionally talented, and he should have had an even brighter future."

"But during the great war of the God Realm, he was entangled by the Ice and Fire Divine Dragons. The two divine dragons fought desperately and perished together with the Thunder God, who had been at the height of his power."

"After the Ice and Fire Divine Dragons died, they became the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well."

"But the Thunder God seemed to have vanished without a trace after that."

"The position of Thunder God has remained vacant ever since."

"Perhaps my Lightning Blue Silver Grass is meant to lead me toward the Thunder God's divine position."

Zhou Tao thought of the Thunder God route.

It was an incomparably powerful divine position with the potential to advance into a God King.

"Let me see what kind of power the Lightning Blue Silver Grass will bring once it fully takes shape."

Zhou Tao began to look forward to it.

"Let's test the power of my Martial Soul!"

He walked into the courtyard, stretched out his hand, and with a thought, blue-gold light blossomed.

A blue-gold vine more than five meters long instantly appeared, binding the thick tree in front of him.

He pulled hard, bending the tree low.

When he withdrew the Lightning Blue Silver Grass, he discovered that the place where it had bound the tree bore a charred ring sunk an inch into the trunk.

It was the work of lightning.

As long as the Lightning Blue Silver Grass touched an opponent, it would automatically unleash powerful lightning.

It was simply exhilarating.
