Blue Silver Tyrant Body! How Had Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Become a Tank Warrior?

The Pulse-Devouring Spirit-Returning Grass emitted a gentle green glow, its entire body dissolving into specks of starlight that flowed along the Blue Silver Grass and merged into the source of Tang San's martial soul.

In the end, it condensed into a warm dark-yellow soul ring that slowly settled around Tang San's body.

"Guide it into fully merging with your Blue Silver Grass. Feel the earth breathing beneath your feet," Gu Qing softly instructed from the side.

Tang San nodded and closed her eyes.

She could clearly feel her Blue Silver Grass martial soul cheering wildly. Every root stretched downward, as though it had connected with the entire earth.

The exhaustion and injuries left behind by smithing were swept away. Even her breathing became exceptionally smooth, as though she would never feel tired as long as she stood on the ground.

The muscles throughout her body burned and swelled, while her Soul Power surged as if riding a rocket.

Level eleven...

Level twelve... level thirteen...

Level fourteen!!!

In less than half an hour, Tang San suddenly opened her eyes.

A gentle yet incomparably vast aura of life erupted from her body. The grass beneath her feet grew wildly, instantly covering her ankles.

"Wow! Third Sister, you jumped straight to level fourteen!" Xiao Wu cried out in delight, though a trace of anxiety flashed through her eyes.

Tang San had already obtained her soul ring. It would soon be Xiao Wu and Gu Qing's turn, and delaying any longer would only arouse suspicion.

Tang Hao raised his brows as well, a trace of shock flashing through his eyes.

Raising one or two levels from absorbing a soul ring was already extraordinarily gifted. To jump three levels in a row—the effects of the Pulse-Devouring Spirit-Returning Grass were simply heaven-defying.

"Quick, let us see your soul skill!" Xiao Wu said impatiently.

Tang San clenched her fists, feeling the surging power within her and the marvelous sensation of being connected to the earth. Her eyes shone frighteningly bright.

She took a deep breath, and the dark-yellow soul ring beneath her feet suddenly lit up!

"First Soul Skill—Blue Silver Tyrant Body!!!"

With a low shout, countless Blue Silver Grass blades glowing with emerald light burst from the ground beneath her feet,

They wound up her ankles, calves, waist, abdomen, and arms as though alive, swiftly forming a layer of close-fitting grass-leaf armor around her body.

The Blue Silver Grass clung tightly to her muscles, every blade faintly glowing as a continuous stream of earth-vein energy surged up from beneath her feet and flowed through her entire body along the Blue Silver Grass.

Tang San could clearly feel it. Her strength, speed, defense, Soul Power limit—all her attributes had doubled!

Without another word, she turned and rushed toward a waist-high boulder nearby. She lowered her stance, planted her feet, clenched her right fist, and instantly tensed every muscle in her body to the limit.

"Hah!"

Her Blue Silver Grass-covered fist smashed fiercely into the boulder with a piercing whoosh!

"Crack... Boom!"

The entire boulder shattered into seven or eight pieces. Rubble flew everywhere, while Tang San's all-out burst instantly consumed more than half her Soul Power. Several blades of Blue Silver Grass around her fist were shattered, and her skin was slightly scraped.

But then, something marvelous happened.

The earth beneath Tang San's feet trembled slightly, and a stream of emerald-green energy poured into her body through the Blue Silver Grass armor.

In the blink of an eye, most of the Soul Power she had just expended recovered. The wound on her fist healed at a visible rate, while the shattered Blue Silver Grass armor automatically grew back, restoring itself completely.

It was as though this recovery would never stop as long as Tang San stood on the earth!

Tang San shook her fist and excitedly bounced in place twice, her voice trembling:

"This feels amazing! Look, Brother Gu, this is my first soul skill, Blue Silver Tyrant Body! With the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around me, all my attributes increase by 50%!"

"And as long as I stand on the ground, I can keep drawing earth-vein energy to restore Soul Power and heal wounds. No matter how long I fight, I won't be afraid of getting tired!"

Gu Qing was amused by Tang San's fervent, body-training fanatic expression:

"Not bad, not bad. From now on, you'll be the iron-wall vanguard and perpetual-motion machine of our team. Train hard, and strive to knock out a Battle Soul Master with every punch next time! Let the world know that Blue Silver Grass can be powerful too!"

Next, Tang Hao led everyone deeper in. At the center of a clear lake, they found the blooming Golden Pattern Treasure Lotus.

The lotus was pure white all over, its petals covered in gilded patterns as it quietly floated upon the water.

The lake water around it gleamed faintly gold. The fish in the lake swam much faster than elsewhere, and even moss had grown on the rocks by the shore, radiating a sacred yet powerful aura.

"Be careful. Its golden-patterned lotus petals have extremely powerful piercing force and can easily penetrate a Soul Elder's defenses," Tang Hao warned.

This time, he did not strike to kill directly. Instead, he released a layer of Soul Power barrier that enveloped the entire center of the lake.

The Golden Pattern Treasure Image Lotus sensed danger and instantly spread its petals wide.

Countless golden blades of light shot from its petals, densely striking the Soul Power barrier with crisp clanging sounds. Ripples actually spread across the barrier.

At the same time, the golden light around it surged, instantly doubling its own strength, speed, and defense.

"Interesting." Tang Hao raised a brow and flicked his finger.

A bolt of black Soul Power lightning struck down, accurately hitting the lotus pedestal of the Golden Pattern Treasure Lotus.

A tyrannical force of Soul Power poured into the lotus pedestal, shattering the defensive meridians throughout its body while precisely preserving its core vitality.

The Golden Pattern Treasure Image Lotus let out a shrill, mournful cry. Its golden light completely dimmed, and it lay limp on the water's surface, barely alive and without the strength to move.

"Alright, Gu boy, finish it off," Tang Hao said to Gu Qing.

Gu Qing nodded and walked to the lakeside.

He took a deep breath, and his brow twitched slightly as the Buddha Wrath Tang Lotus appeared in his palm.

Gu Qing used all the Soul Power in his body to activate the first basic ability of his martial soul.

Three lotus petals, sharp as blades, detached from the flower. They shot toward the core lotus pedestal of the Golden Pattern Treasure Image Lotus in a triangular formation with piercing whistles.

"Pfft!"

The lotus petals easily pierced through the defenseless lotus pedestal, completely ending its life.

The body of the Golden Pattern Treasure Image Lotus slowly turned into points of light. A light-purple thousand-year soul ring slowly rose from its remains, radiating an aura that was both sacred and tyrannical.

"Gu Qing, be careful. A thousand-year soul ring is extremely tyrannical. Its enhancement energy and attack energy can easily clash with each other. If you can't endure it, give up immediately."

Tang Hao's tone was more serious than ever.

Xiao Wu clenched her fists nervously as well. "Good luck, Brother Gu Qing!"

Tang San stared at Gu Qing with a worried expression, wishing she could rush over and take the burden in place of the future Sect Master.

Gu Qing smiled and patted Tang San's little head. "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."

He walked before the soul ring and sat down cross-legged.

Taking a deep breath, he circulated the Buddha Wrath Tang Lotus martial soul and the Mysterious Heaven Skill, beginning to guide that light-purple thousand-year soul ring.

The moment the soul ring entered his body, two utterly different yet same-origin energies erupted at once:

One was warm, sacred enhancement energy,

The other was sharp, tyrannical attack energy.

The two energies surged along his meridians toward the Buddha Wrath Tang Lotus martial soul, perfectly merging with the martial soul's two original basic attributes: "enhancement energy" and "attack energy."

At the same time, the Mystic Jade Body Martial Soul deep within Gu Qing's body trembled slightly. The previously blurry outline of its soul ring became much clearer, and the progress of it condensing its own soul ring unexpectedly accelerated by nearly thirty percent at once!

Gu Qing was delighted. He had not expected the Golden Pattern Treasure Lotus's energy to nourish his Body Martial Soul as well. This was truly an unexpected gain.

He let out a muffled groan, gritted his teeth, and forcibly stabilized his meridians with the Mystic Jade Body, guiding the two energies to fully merge into the source of his martial soul.

Tang Hao, Tang San, and Xiao Wu all held their breaths beside him, watching him without blinking.
