Background / History
Blue Silver Grass is initially regarded by Yu Xiaogang as a weak, transitional martial soul, with the Clear Sky Hammer expected to become Tang San's true primary path. Yu Xiaogang considers a ten-year Lone Bamboo an acceptable fallback first-ring option because of the grass's perceived limitations. 21
Tang San instead absorbs a Datura Snake soul ring. The resulting changes affirm Yu Xiaogang's Martial Soul Mimicry Theory: a plant martial soul can absorb a beast soul ring and inherit some of the soul beast's characteristics. 24
Abilities & Skills
Blue Silver Entanglement
Tang San's first soul skill causes Blue Silver Grass to erupt from within a fifty-meter area and bind a target. It carries a paralysis effect. 23
- Can sprout from multiple directions to restrain an opponent. 23
- More than a dozen grass vines can be generated at once. 23
- The paralysis effect is ineffective if the grass cannot touch the opponent. 24
- Qi Dao cuts the vines apart immediately with the Peerless Sword during their duel. 23
Datura Snake Traits
After absorbing the Datura Snake soul ring, Blue Silver Grass gains traits from that soul beast, including a slight paralysis poison. 24
- Demonstrates that plant martial souls can inherit properties from beast-type soul rings. 24
- The added poison is not decisive against opponents who avoid its vines entirely. 24
Story Role / Major Arcs
- Yu Xiaogang cites Blue Silver Grass as proof that he does not discriminate against “useless martial souls,” pledging to develop Tang San into a powerhouse. 20
- During Tang San's challenge against Qi Dao, Blue Silver Entanglement fails to restrain Qi Dao, whose sword cuts through every vine before Tang San can capitalize on the control skill. 23
- After the defeat, Yu Xiaogang assures Tang San that Blue Silver Grass may eventually surpass Qi Dao's sword through higher soul power and poison-attribute soul rings. 25
