"I understand, Godfather!"
Tang San nodded heavily. That was right, he still had a godfather. He was not a child with no one to love him!
At that moment, Tang Chuan's status in Tang San's heart soared once again. If there were some way to inspect it, Tang Hao's status would have fallen into the dust.
The carriage traveled along in an orderly manner, while Tang Chuan continuously explained some of his views and insights regarding Blue Silver Grass.
"Little San, you need to pay attention. Although my Blue Silver Emperor's soul skills are fairly common, you can absolutely develop it along different paths."
"For example, I noticed the hidden weapons you were wiping earlier. You could absorb soul rings that increase vitality while also enhancing toughness. That way, your Blue Silver Grass could become like hidden weapons and catch your opponents off guard."
Tang San sat beside Tang Chuan, listening to his constant explanations. His eyes were filled with respect and admiration for him.
Thinking of this, Tang San began to hesitate over whether he should teach the Mysterious Heaven Skill to his godfather. He was truly kind. He had allowed Tang San to experience a father's love that he had never felt in either his past or present life.
But after thinking it over, he decided to wait until he had the chance in the future. By then, he would establish the Tang Sect on the Douluo Continent, and his godfather Tang Chuan would definitely become the Supreme Elder of the Tang Sect!
"Godfather, I want to know what Yu Xiaogang's martial soul actually is. I heard you keep calling it a Pig."
Tang San had previously heard Tang Chuan say that Yu Xiaogang's martial soul was a Purple-Skinned Pig. He was truly a little curious. Could a martial soul really be the same as a Pig?
"Him? He really is a Pig. When we get back, I can let you take a look."
After about a day and a half, the carriage finally reached the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. It was already afternoon when they arrived, but neither of them planned to rest and went straight inside.
The Star Dou Great Forest was the most vast forest on the Douluo Continent, spanning the territories of both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire.
The soul beasts here were distributed according to their levels. The deeper one went, the more dangerous it became.
As they walked through the Star Dou Great Forest, the air carried the scent of soil and rotting leaves. Countless ancient trees towered overhead, blocking out the sky and sun, allowing only faint rays of sunlight to filter through.
Following behind Tang Chuan, Tang San unconsciously activated his Purple Demon Eye. This was his first time entering such a vast forest, so he instinctively became alert.
Pushing through layers of shrubbery, Tang Chuan and Tang San headed onward. For Tang Chuan, finding a suitable soul ring for Tang San was quite easy. Although he had a template and did not need to hunt soul rings himself, he still took on mercenary jobs to make a living.
For instance, searching the forest for a certain herb, or retrieving something from a certain soul beast.
With the Blue Silver Domain, it was like activating a wallhack in a game. In the forest, almost nothing could escape his sight.
Rustle—
A sound came from a dense thicket nearby. Tang Chuan raised an arm to signal Tang San to stop.
Tang San's Purple Demon Eye also focused on that spot, while under Tang Chuan's Blue Silver Domain, the other party's figure was completely exposed.
"It's a Blazing Fire Lion, a full three thousand years old. Little San, hide behind me now."
Tang San did not hesitate in the slightest. He used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to flash backward, poking out his head as he stared fixedly at Tang Chuan.
"Roar!!"
A male lion blazing with fire pounced out. Wherever it passed, the ground beneath its paws was scorched by flames.
Tang Chuan raised his hand, and a blue-gold stalk of Blue Silver Grass appeared in his palm. Six soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black—rose beneath his feet.
The fifth soul ring lit up faintly. Countless strands of Soul Power gathered, while the Blue Silver Emperor continuously intertwined, eventually forming a long spear covered in golden patterns.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Blue Silver Tyrant Emperor Spear!"
Although its fifth soul ring appeared to be ten thousand years old beneath the concealment of the Blue Silver Domain, it was essentially still a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, so its power was unquestionably formidable.
Seeing that the human soul master's martial soul was actually Blue Silver Grass, the Blazing Fire Lion lunged fiercely at Tang Chuan.
"Go!"
Tang Chuan flung the spear forward as well.
"Pfft!"
The Blue Silver Tyrant Emperor Spear pierced straight through the Blazing Fire Lion. It immediately fell to the ground, its eyes fixed on Tang Chuan across from it, all life already gone.
Above its corpse, a purple soul ring slowly floated up.
Tang San hurried out. Looking at the spear woven from Blue Silver Grass embedded in the creature's body, his eyes gleamed.
Could a seemingly soft little plant like Blue Silver Grass possess such terrifying killing power? One truly could not underestimate anything.
And perhaps he might be able to learn a soul skill like this in the future? After all, his godfather had said that he possessed Blue Silver Emperor bloodline as well. He would definitely be able to evolve into a Blue Silver Emperor someday.
Then Tang San turned his gaze to the purple thousand-year soul ring, his eyes full of curiosity.
"Is this a thousand-year soul ring?"
"Let's go. The soul ring you need is up ahead."
Although he did not know why this thousand-year soul beast had suddenly entered the territory of hundred-year soul beasts, since it had dared block their path, it had chosen a dead end.
"Godfather, will that soul ring just stay there?"
"After some time, it will disperse on its own. Besides, you cannot absorb it. Absorbing a thousand-year soul ring as your first soul ring is unheard of across the entire continent."
"If you forcefully absorb it, there is only one outcome: your body will explode and you will die."
Tang Chuan spoke calmly. Naturally, his own soul rings did not count. He was a transmigrator—what was wrong with having a little cheat?
Tang San nodded thoughtfully, then asked again:
"Then, Godfather, are there good and bad soul beasts too?"
Tang San asked whatever came to mind. Hearing this question, Tang Chuan briefly wondered whether Xiao Wu had possessed him. Wasn't this supposed to be Xiao Wu's declarative statement?
Still, Tang Chuan nodded and softly explained it to Tang San.
"People are divided into good and bad people, corpses are divided... Naturally, soul beasts are divided as well. But most of them harbor hostility toward us, because for soul masters to grow stronger, soul rings are the only path."
"That means we are destined to become opponents."
"I see..."
Tang San indicated that he understood. It seemed that he would have to kill any soul beast he encountered in the future.
"We're here."
Not long after, the two arrived beside a lake. The area was filled with seemingly harmless vegetation, but under Tang Chuan's observation, many of them were plant-type soul beasts with hundred-year cultivation.
A small blade of grass on the shore successfully caught Tang Chuan's attention.
Its main stem was slender, while its top was covered in a cluster of fine white seeds, as tiny as grains of sand. Under the sunlight, they glimmered with faint points of light, like shattered stars scattered across the ground.
"Star Seed Grass. Its fruits look plump, so it seems to be just over six hundred years old. Little San, you can give it a try."
"Be careful. You must be fast, accurate, and ruthless. If your blade misses, it will wither itself like suicide."
Hearing this, Tang San immediately pulled a small knife from his Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges.
