Qualitative Change! Blue Silver King

In the room completely wrapped in Blue Silver Grass, Lin Yue sat cross-legged with his upper body bare. Strands of Soul Power circulated through his meridians in a mysterious cycle.

As the designated must-have cheat ability of the Tang God King, used from Douluo One through countless millennia afterward, the Mysterious Heaven Skill truly had its merits.

When Lin Yue circulated his Soul Power according to the method recorded in the Mysterious Heaven Skill, he immediately felt his meridians widen and his mind brighten. Not only did his Soul Power limit rise with each circulation, but his Soul Power recovery speed increased as well.

She personally used her little hands to guide the internal energy through the proper meridians. Only after seeing that Brother Lin had successfully entered his cultivation state did Tang Yin purse her lips and hide the faint disappointment and regret in her eyes.

She had originally wanted to take things a step further, but Brother Lin's resistance had been too intense, preventing her from succeeding.

But it didn't matter. One day, Brother Lin would become completely one with her.

After gazing at her beloved, who sat cross-legged in cultivation, with infatuated eyes, Tang Yin finally composed herself. She sat down cross-legged and held the Spirit Bone containing boundless vitality between her palms.

In the next instant, countless Blue Silver Grass blades spread and grew from the phantom image of her martial soul behind her, entwining themselves around the Spirit Bone.

The jade-green Spirit Bone, guided by Soul Power, immediately transformed into a streak of light.

Pure power followed the path of the Spirit Bone and turned into a vast life force that nourished her body. It flowed through Tang Yin's limbs and bones... before finally returning to her spine, where the immense life force and Soul Power merged with the girl's backbone...

At the instant she absorbed the Spirit Bone, perhaps due to the attraction of their shared origin, the yellow Spirit Ring behind Tang Yin's martial soul trembled slightly. For a moment, traces of trembling purple appeared within it.

Tang Yin, who was circulating the Mysterious Heaven Skill and prepared at any moment to endure the impact, discovered in astonishment that the spiritual power and Soul Power flowing into her body showed no rejection at all. Rather than causing any pain, they were like a deep, warm current, remolding and strengthening her body from within.

Very soon, the gentle power emanating from her spine began nourishing her entire body. The intense life force made Tang Yin feel as though she were resting in her mother's embrace.

Filled with boundless reassurance, the girl gently closed her eyes and entered a mysterious state.

As Tang Yin sat cross-legged and absorbed the Spirit Bone, her skin gradually became fairer, and her body grew. Her originally black hair slowly transformed into deep blue, while the Blue Silver Grass martial soul swaying behind her stretched slightly under the immense life force, revealing an extraordinary radiance.

If Lin Yue had seen it, he surely would have cried out, "Holy shit!"

Because the previously ordinary Blue Silver Grass had now undergone an elevation at the level of its very origin!

As for Xiao San's appearance, nourished by this awakened power of origin, it became increasingly gentle and beautiful. Otherworldly and refined... she no longer resembled the ordinary girl next door.

"Phew..."

After guiding the Mysterious Heaven Skill through an unknown number of cycles, Lin Yue opened his eyes only after he felt the last breath of stale air leave his chest. His gaze shone brightly.

He had broken through!

After absorbing the Spirit Ring, the level fourteen bottleneck that had already been on the verge of collapse had completely shattered overnight with the help of the Mysterious Heaven Skill!

"This Mysterious Heaven Skill really can significantly increase total Soul Power and Soul Power recovery speed."

Feeling the changes in his body, Lin Yue rose to his feet, his entire body crackling sharply.

"I just wonder whether I can use the enhancer to boost the technique itself... Tsk, if I hadn't run out of points, I'd really have to try it... I need to fill up my little treasury as soon as possible."

But when his gaze fell upon Tang Yin nearby, his expression changed drastically.

How had Ah Yin's appearance and temperament undergone such an enormous change overnight?!

The girl next door who had once carried a faint rustic air had completely changed after absorbing the Spirit Bone. Her temperament became lofty and ethereal. Her deep blue hair cascaded over her increasingly graceful body, while her already adorable and exquisite face became utterly flawless, as perfect as a jade beauty!

Could it be that a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone from the Jade Bamboo Grove had forcibly catalyzed Blue Silver Grass into the Blue Silver King!?

"Good, good, good! Let's see how that Xiao San can still win now..."

Standing there in delight, Lin Yue sat down cross-legged after a brief laugh and curiously stared at Tang Yin's face.

Now that he looked closely, as the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline awakened, Ah Yin really was growing more and more like her mother... soft features, a gentle temperament...

Still, it would be better if her personality could become gentler too. She was too sharp, just like when she had been an assassin in her previous life. It really wasn't very elegant...

"Breathe... inhale..."

Sitting cross-legged within her spiritual sea and absorbing the Spirit Bone, Tang Yin felt as though a green bamboo shadow had appeared in her mind.

No, it was not a stalk of Jade Bamboo, but countless proud silhouettes rising vigorously upward. Every one of them stood straight and tall, transcendent and unworldly, proud before the world.

I gave you this Spirit Bone because I hope you can be like this Jade Bamboo too. Don't harbor any dark, twisted thoughts. Be open and upright, with the bearing of a gentleman. Don't keep obsessing over some Path to Death every day.

Brother Lin's voice faintly echoed within her spiritual sea. Tang Yin felt as though a hand had settled upon her shoulder, Brother Lin gently admonishing her with a warm smile.

Opening her eyes, Tang Yin, who had straightened her back, found that Brother Lin Yue had long since seated himself before her, looking at her strangely.

"Uh... morning, Ah Yin."

Lin Yue looked awkward. He had not expected her to regain consciousness just as he was carefully studying her face.

"Yes, good morning, Brother Lin."

With a sweet smile, the girl stretched out her hands and gave the person before her a big hug.

"No, Xiao San, why did you change so much overnight?"

Yu Xiaogang stared in shock at Tang Yin as she descended from upstairs.

Although Xiao San had undergone some changes in appearance after absorbing her Spirit Ring yesterday, they had been relatively subtle and still within an acceptable range.

But after just one night, she seemed to have suddenly grown two years older. Her entire temperament had been renewed. She no longer looked like a little village girl at all, but rather like the young lady of some noble academy, elegant and dignified...

"Ahem, it was probably the changes to her body caused by absorbing a Spirit Ring beyond her level. After all, it might not have stabilized immediately after she absorbed it."

They obviously couldn't directly say that it was the effect of a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone. Lin Yue immediately offered a strained explanation.

"Strange. Then why haven't you changed as much, Little Lin?"

Though Su Yan was also amazed by Tang Yin's transformation, he could not help but feel puzzled when he noticed that Little Lin did not seem to have grown at all.

Tsk, if I could absorb a suitable Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone right after reaching the One-Ring Soul Master realm, I'd undergo a qualitative change too!

Lin Yue pursed his lips, feeling a little dejected.

Wasn't it simply because the attributes didn't match? What could he do? Spirit Bones were things one could only encounter by chance. If he had the opportunity, he wanted an External Soul Bone too.

Hmph, this was just an early investment. There would definitely be generous returns.

Ah Yin, Ah Yin, you have to do your best. In two months, beat that Xiao San up, then bring me back several generous rewards.

Praying inwardly like this, Lin Yue casually said, "Maybe it's because of the Blue Silver Grass martial soul. Absorbing a corresponding plant-type Spirit Ring allowed the Blue Silver Grass to develop."

"What? That can actually happen?"

After briefly considering it, Su Yan nodded. That made sense.

Blue Silver Grass was still rather weak as a martial soul, after all. Absorbing the Spirit Ring of a stronger Soul Beast and causing its martial soul origin to evolve was only natural.

As for Little Lin, his Ghost Sword martial soul was already powerful, so a mere hundred-year Spirit Ring would not cause any changes.

"What? Absorbing a Spirit Ring can actually cause a martial soul to undergo a qualitative transformation?"

Yu Xiaogang, whose martial soul was already flawed, widened his eyes, his breathing growing increasingly rapid.

The anxious Master Yu Xiaogang immediately took out a notebook and hurriedly questioned Tang Yin about the changes she had undergone.

However, Tang Yin could not be bothered with him. She kept her head held high, and an occasional casual nod or shake was enough to make Yu Xiaogang wildly excited as he recorded some lofty insight in his notebook.

And so, the group returned to Soul Master Academy.

Su Yan bade them farewell, while Yu Xiaogang eagerly prepared to return and record more theories concerning martial soul transformations.

Before Lin Yue and Tang Yin could return to their dormitory, they heard an arrogant challenge ring out.

"Hey, Lin Yue, you've obtained your First Spirit Ring, right? Then come duel me!"

Feng Xiaolin had apparently been waiting at the academy entrance for some time. With his arms crossed over his chest, he watched the two who had returned from Soul Hunting Forest with an expectant expression.

"Come on. Follow me to the back mountain."

He was already prepared to go all out!
