Breaking through ten thousand years! Permanently copying a Soul Skill!

Ye Yang was about to break through to ten thousand years.

The Blue Silver Emperor was even more excited than Ye Yang himself.

They had known each other for only two months, yet she had watched Ye Yang rise from a prospective Blue Silver King of just over eight hundred years to where he was now.

Not only was his Soul Power about to break through to ten thousand years, but his bloodline foundation had also risen to that of a Blue Silver King.

And his bloodline was growing ever stronger. He was almost a prospective emperor!

On top of that, Ye Yang's spiritual power was extraordinarily strong, comparable to that of a seventy- or eighty-thousand-year Soul Beast.

It was nothing short of a miracle!

She took a deep breath and held it, concentrating as a pale blue light spread in every direction.

She was using the Blue Silver Domain with all her might.

Beneath the moonlight, the blue Blue Silver Domain possessed a dreamlike beauty.

With the Blue Silver Domain's help, energy boiled within Ye Yang, and his spirits soared. He easily broke through the barrier between the thousand-year limit and ten thousand years.

A Soul Beast breaking through to ten thousand years was equivalent to a human breaking through to become a level 50 Soul King.

Its strength increased greatly.

For Soul Beasts in particular, the transformation was even more dramatic.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your Soul Power has broken through to ten thousand years. You have been awarded 100,000 points!]

Before Ye Yang could celebrate the system notification, he saw his body change in an instant.

His eighteen leaves grew more slender, reaching ten meters in length.

That was their natural length. If he infused them with Soul Power, they could grow much longer in no time.

No longer confined by the limitations of his natural form, he had gained more flexible and varied offensive and defensive capabilities, as well as greater power.

The leaf fused with the Mandala Snake's tail, the External Soul Bone, glinted with an especially metallic chill.

Its energy was fierce and sharp, astonishingly powerful.

The External Soul Bone had originally been 3,012 years old, but after fusing into Ye Yang's body, it had been growing slowly under the stimulation of his ten-thousand-year Soul Power and Blue Silver King bloodline.

That was the greatest advantage of an External Soul Bone.

This was only its normal growth. Though slow, it was steady.

If it received additional powerful energy and an opportunity to advance, its transformation could be greatly accelerated.

I remember that Tang San's Eight Spider Lances underwent four major evolutions!

The first was when he absorbed the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and the next was when he devoured a ten-thousand-year Cave Demon Spider.

Then came the transformation from his desperate battle against the nearly million-year-old Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.

Finally, when he became a god, the Eight Spider Lances were deified into the Sea God's Eight Wings.

Ye Yang eagerly anticipated going to the Sunset Forest to find the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well once he was able to leave.

In fact, he could have the Blue Silver Emperor take him there now.

But the Sunset Forest was much smaller than the Star Dou Great Forest and had far fewer Soul Beasts.

That would be bad for increasing his cultivation.

It was better to make rapid progress in the Star Dou Great Forest first, then go to the Sunset Forest.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your bloodline foundation has risen by 1 level, reaching level 89.]

As countless thoughts raced through Ye Yang's mind, the system sounded again.

To his delight, Ye Yang discovered that besides his bloodline foundation rising by one level, he also had 89 evolution points.

In other words, he needed only one more evolution point to advance another level.

To reach level 90!

Level 90-a prospective Blue Silver Emperor!

That would be another transformation of his bloodline foundation!

With the same amount of Soul Power, his combat strength would rise considerably, allowing him to fight above his level.

The silver on his leaves had also reached its limit and was on the verge of another enormous transformation!

But he was still one point short!

Just as Ye Yang was feeling a little regretful, the system sounded again:

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Spiritual power +100 points.]

Ye Yang was overjoyed.

When he had first transmigrated, his spiritual power had far surpassed his Soul Power and bloodline because he had a human soul.

But as his strength rose rapidly, his spiritual power had been left far behind.

Absorbing ordinary Soul Beasts did very little for his spiritual power.

Even after the Emerald Demon Bird he had hunted earlier gave his spiritual power a substantial boost, it had reached only 233 points, not even the Middle Spirit Connection Realm.

When a Soul Beast broke through to ten thousand years, its bloodline improved to some extent along with its Soul Power.

The greatest changes, however, were to its soul and spiritual power.

A Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's intelligence was no longer inferior to a human's.

Some special Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts possessed intelligence fully equal to a human's.

Now that Ye Yang had broken through to ten thousand years, his spiritual power had also surged by 100 points, reaching 333.

Ye Yang remembered that in Douluo II: Peerless Tang Sect, the upper limit of the Spirit Connection Realm was 500 points of spiritual power.

Tang San's son-in-law, Huo Yuhao, was a Soul Master who primarily followed the path of spiritual power.

Once I leave the Star Dou Great Forest, I should go to the human Soul Master World and find some spiritual attack techniques if I get the chance.

Having made plans for the future, Ye Yang looked at his personal page with some excitement to see how he had changed.

His personal page had been completely refreshed:

Host: Ye Yang

Foundation: Blue Silver King bloodline (great perfection)

Cultivation: 10,000 years

Bloodline: level 89

Spirit: 333 (Middle Spirit Connection Realm)

Talents: copy target's skills at double strength (consumes points), assisted devouring (points can be consumed to speed it up)

Points: 118,343 (copy target's skills, assisted devouring)

Evolution points: 89

Spirit points: 0

Soul Power points: 0

Soul Bone: Mandala Snake tail External Soul Bone (3,861 + 0.1 + 0.1... age continuously increasing)

Soul Skills: none

Treasures and materials: none

Whew~

Looking at the various strength stats that had surged once again, Ye Yang let out a long breath.

With my current ten-thousand-year Soul Power and peak Blue Silver King bloodline foundation,

even if I ran into an ordinary twenty-thousand-year Soul Beast, I could hold my own against it, or even kill it!

And with the External Soul Bone added in, I could definitely kill a thirty-thousand-year Soul Beast with ease!

Ye Yang's heart burned with excitement.

He just didn't know by how much he surpassed that level.

Thirty thousand years was another enormous transformation for a Soul Beast.

It was equivalent to a human Soul Saint.

Of course, an ordinary thirty-thousand-year Soul Beast might not be a match for a human Soul Saint.

For humans, the difference in combat strength between level 70 and level 69, between having a Spirit Avatar and not having one, was enormous.

Strictly speaking, a level 69 Soul Master was roughly equivalent to a Soul Beast a little over twenty thousand years old.

But once a human broke through to level 70, they were at least equivalent to a Soul Beast over thirty thousand years old, or even one of forty thousand years!

There was a gap of more than ten thousand years in between. That was the difference between a level 69 and a level 70 human.

And a level 79 human was comparable to a sixty-thousand-year Soul Beast!

My maximum combat strength right now is definitely above that of a thirty-thousand-year Soul Beast, at the level of a human Soul Saint.

I just don't know exactly what level I'm equivalent to.

The difference in strength between the lower and higher levels of Soul Saint is too great.

And this isn't the limit of my power yet!

At that thought, Ye Yang hesitated no longer. He looked at the equally delighted Blue Silver Emperor and said with a smile:

"Ah Yin, please use a true Blue Silver Overlord Spear for me."

"It's very important to me."

Although Ye Yang spoke with a grin, the Blue Silver Emperor could still sense how serious he was.

This time, she didn't refuse.

She first used the Blue Silver Domain to gather a vast amount of life force.

Then she used some kind of power to control it, uniting the energy within and without.

A spear a zhang long, with a jade-green shaft and a silver-white tip, appeared in the Blue Silver Emperor's hand.

Its edge was bared for all to see!

Ah Yin's cultivation had now reached level 66.

But Ye Yang was certain that the Blue Silver Overlord Spear's attack was definitely above level 60!

Not even an ordinary Soul Emperor could withstand it!

But most importantly, the spear intent within it was something not even a Soul Saint or a Soul Douluo possessed, much less a Soul Emperor!

That was because it was the special spear intent Ah Yin possessed as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor!

System, permanently copy the Blue Silver Overlord Spear Soul Skill for me!

Ye Yang spoke to the system in his mind.

Before, when Ye Yang's Soul Power was below ten thousand years, he could only copy a Soul Skill temporarily and borrow it for a while.

The points consumed were equal to the age of the one he copied.

The duration was equal to Ye Yang's own age.

Now, Ye Yang had finally broken through to ten thousand years.

When it came to using Soul Skills, he was no longer limited to copying them temporarily.

He could copy them permanently!

For every ten thousand years, he could copy one additional Soul Skill.

As for the cost, it was 10,000 points each time.

Because his Soul Power had broken through to ten thousand years, the system had awarded him a full 100,000 points.

Ye Yang had truly become a minor tycoon.

As soon as he asked to copy the Blue Silver Emperor's Blue Silver Overlord Spear at her peak, the system sounded:

[Ding! Consuming 10,000 points to copy target Blue Silver Emperor's attack skill, Blue Silver Overlord Spear...]

Three seconds later.

[Ding! Permanent skill copied successfully!]

As the system sounded, Ye Yang felt it at once.

The leaf he had fused with the External Soul Bone instantly gained an extra power.

The Blue Silver Overlord Spear Soul Skill!

Using this Soul Skill no longer consumed points, but his own Soul Power, making it more sustainable and stronger.

Moreover, it was different from the Soul Bone Skill performed with the External Soul Bone.

But the two could be used at the same time, stacking their attacks!

If I stack them, just how strong will they be?

Comparable to a forty-thousand-year Soul Beast, or fifty thousand?

Or even invincible beneath a human level 80 Soul Douluo?

Ye Yang felt even more reassured as he envisioned the possibilities with anticipation.

After composing himself, he extended ten leaves and twisted them into arms and hands with ten fingers.

He took the Blue Silver Emperor's slender jade hands and transmitted his voice affectionately:

"Ah Yin, wait for me. We'll walk hand in hand, side by side!"

Even beneath the hazy light of the waxing crescent moon, the Blue Silver Emperor's bright red face could still be seen clearly.

She was a little bashful, but she didn't refuse.

Ye Yang also breathed a great sigh of relief.

I've won my wife over!

"Hm?"

Suddenly, both he and Ah Yin noticed something. They whipped around and looked deep into the forest!
