Blue Silver King

Chen Zhuo arrived at a private estate, which was the place where Qian Renxue had arranged to meet him.

Judging from the outside, the decor looked plain and unassuming, but upon entering, a whole new world unfolded within.

Small bridges spanned flowing streams, and pavilions stood alongside stages for dance.

Bizarre rocks were piled high, and myriad flowers vied for beauty.

Gatekeepers had already been waiting to guide Chen Zhuo and lead him to his seat.

Snow bear paws, emerald swan meat, lamb chops, sliced raw fish, oysters...

Various delicacies were laid out across the banquet table.

Qian Renxue appeared, and the steward beside her clapped his hands, causing a troupe of musicians to file in.

Barefoot and draped in gauze, they sang softly and danced lightly, performing to entertain the guests during the feast.

This banquet had been prepared for Chen Zhuo alone.

Just as Chen Zhuo had envisioned, after Qian Renxue consumed the Immortal Herb Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, the divine fire innate to her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul underwent a transformation, evolving into the Solar True Flame carrying the Ultimate Attribute.

Her soul power also reached level 70 in one fell swoop.

Qian Renxue tested the newborn flames of her martial soul, and even Porcupinefish Douluo did not dare to take them head-on.

The overall lethality of her martial soul had vastly improved by more than just a single tier compared to the past.

The two bodyguards and Qian Renxue were all deeply shaken.

Therefore, upon hearing that Chen Zhuo had returned from the Thunder Secret Realm, she could not wait to see him.

She set up the banquet to properly express her gratitude to him.

"Thank you for your kind intention, Your Highness."

Chen Zhuo gently swirled the fine grape wine in his goblet, raising it in a distant toast.

Qian Renxue played a warm host, and Chen Zhuo did not stand on ceremony, eating plenty of food and wine throughout the meal.

He was still in the stage of growing his body. Having eaten at twelve, he would be hungry by three.

After eating and drinking his fill, the two moved to the tea room and sat facing each other.

Qian Renxue chatted with Chen Zhuo about the situation in the imperial court, and Chen Zhuo also shared some interesting sights and experiences from the Thunder Secret Realm with her.

Having stayed in this Heaven Dou Imperial City for a long time, Qian Renxue naturally held great interest in external matters.

Chen Zhuo also casually mentioned that during this trip to the secret realm, he had successfully acquired a powerful soul skill under the guidance of Snake Lance Douluo.

He said this deliberately so that Qian Renxue would serve as his witness.

In the future, if anyone questioned why his fourth soul skill was identical to Snake Lance Douluo's ninth soul skill, they would not be able to produce any solid evidence.

"Speaking of which, Gu should also find time to acquire my seventh soul ring."

Originally, Qian Renxue had calculated that she could only become a soul saint in a few years, but the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower that Chen Zhuo brought her had disrupted her cultivation plan.

She could even begin trying to absorb the last of the six soul bones of the Angel God Armor now.

She could complete the containment of the entire set of divine armor and initially master the power of the angel soul bone armor.

Hearing this, Chen Zhuo raised his head, looking at Qian Renxue with a somewhat peculiar gaze.

"You surely don't intend to just absorb a soul ring from a soul beast of around fifty thousand years, do you?"

In the original timeline, Qian Renxue's martial soul configuration before becoming a god was the optimal soul ring configuration of the soul master world: two yellow, two purple, and five black.

There was not a single hundred-thousand-year soul ring.

It really was wasteful enough... Chen Zhuo could not help but complain internally once again.

Of course, besides personal reasons, it was also because in this era there were simply too few land-based soul beasts that could reach the hundred-thousand-year level.

The number of hundred-thousand-year sea soul beasts was quite large, but they were basically the private property of the Sea God.

They were guarded by the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island.

The difficulty for land soul masters to hunt a hundred-thousand-year sea soul beast was much greater than hunting a hundred-thousand-year soul beast on land.

It was only through the grace of the previous-generation Angel God that Qian Renxue's soul ring ages were comprehensively enhanced.

Her seventh, eighth, and ninth soul rings were only raised to the hundred-thousand-year level.

Ultimately, she achieved a divine soul ring configuration of six black, three red, and one gold.

The Angel God and the Sea God were both top-tier first-level gods, and their god positions were on equal levels.

The reason why the Angel God Qian Renxue was inferior to the Sea God Tang San was precisely because she fell slightly short here and there.

In the end, the gap became too difficult to bridge.

She could only end up being suppressed and beaten throughout the entire process.

In contrast, the Pope Bibi Dong was truly worthy of being the most talented and brilliant soul master in this era.

After ascending to godhood at level one hundred, she held the god position of the Rakshasa God, and her combat prowess performance was completely no less than that of the Sea God Tang San.

She even relied on a sneak attack to successfully kill the Sea God.

Had there not been such obvious bias from the Asura God, the ending of all stories would have been rewritten.

"Is there a problem with that?" Qian Renxue asked with a puzzled expression.

Her containment of every soul ring and every session of meditation were carried out strictly in accordance with the optimal cultivation methods summarized and concluded by countless predecessors in Spirit Hall over hundreds and thousands of years.

How could this possibly be wrong?

Chen Zhuo was left speechless.

He directly displayed his own soul ring configuration.

"With your current physique, absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Ultimate Light, Ultimate Holiness, and Ultimate Fire-Qian Renxue now possessed three kinds of ultimate power.

She even had the companion innate domains, the Angel Domain and the Angel God Armor.

Even though she was only at level 70 right now.

If they were to really fight, ordinary Titled Douluos around level 90 would not be her opponents.

With things like this, this foolish woman actually still thought about going to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring.

"Your fourth soul ring... ten-thousand-year!"

Qian Renxue lost her composure and stood up directly from her seat.

The two Titled Douluo bodyguards beside her also changed their expressions drastically.

"What's there to make such a fuss about?"

"Your Highness, let me ask you: do you want a hundred-thousand-year soul ring or not?"

With a calm expression, Chen Zhuo pushed the white jade teacup forward. The beautiful tea art mistress serving nearby saw this and flicked the teacup, preparing to refill it.

"You step down."

Qian Renxue actually took over the job of the tea art mistress, personally adding tea and pouring water for Chen Zhuo.

"Brother Chen, please elaborate..."

Chen Zhuo feigned mystery, asking Qian Renxue to wait for some time longer.

Once he broke through to level 50, they would go to the Star Dou Great Forest together to acquire a soul ring.

At that time, he would present a hundred-thousand-year soul ring to her with both hands.

Qian Renxue considered it for a while and ultimately agreed to Chen Zhuo's request.

Anyway, she was not in a rush for this single moment.

Moreover, she did not believe that Chen Zhuo would deceive her.

"Then it's settled. You take the soul ring, and I'll take the soul bone."

Chen Zhuo finished his tea in one gulp with a smiling expression.

Sunset Forest, Blue Silver Forest.

In this kingdom of Blue Silver Grass, an eighty-five-thousand-year Blue Silver King grew.

"Emperor! Why are you here?"

Once a soul beast reached the ten-thousand-year threshold, its intelligence would grow with each passing day.

Soul beasts at the hundred-thousand-year level possessed intelligence no different from that of humans.

For plant-type soul beasts to possess intelligence was far more difficult than for animal-type soul beasts.

One like the Blue Silver King was a rare anomaly when looking across the entire Douluo world.

Stalks of Blue Silver Grass intertwined with one another, arching around and guarding a withered, withered stalk of Blue Silver Grass whose leaves had golden borders.

The Blue Silver King did not understand why their Blue Silver Grass Clan's Blue Silver Emperor, who had been missing for many years, had broken through and appeared in its territory.

It was as if she had appeared out of thin air.

And her condition was so poor. It looked as though the fire of her life was about to be extinguished.

"Don't worry, Emperor! I will definitely save you."

After thinking for only a single second, the Blue Silver King made its choice.

The Blue Silver Grass Clan had only one emperor. Only when the old emperor died could a new emperor be born.

Even though the Blue Silver King was endowed with exceptional talent, crossing the threshold of a ten-thousand-year soul beast like a miracle and cultivating all the way to the present,

it was still unable to defy this ironclad law that approached the level of a rule.

Therefore, for the rest of its life until death, it would never be able to become a hundred-thousand-year soul beast.

The Blue Silver King was aware of this.

Now, the emperor had descended from the heavens, and she was in such a weakened state.

If it wished, it could completely devour the Blue Silver Emperor and thus become the new emperor.

At that time, free from the shackles of bloodline, its age and cultivation could also break through to a hundred-thousand-year level.

However, the Blue Silver King's choice was to sacrifice itself.

Nothing else.

It had to save its emperor!
