Beating Tang Hao Senseless Again! A Mental Breakdown!

In the Star Dou Great Forest, Ah Yin flew at full speed, frantic with worry.

Ye Yang clung to her shoulder with two leaves, letting her carry him as she flew.

His great mass of roots streamed out behind him because of her speed.

"Senior Blue Silver King has only cultivated for a little over eighty-five thousand years, but he is the oldest living member of our Blue Silver Emperor clan."

"He has taken great care of us younger generations."

"Without his guidance, my cultivation would have been much slower."

"He's hidden himself well, and his strength is considerable, but this time... nothing must happen to him!"

As Ah Yin flew at full speed, she spoke anxiously to Ye Yang.

"It must be those two brothers!"

Ye Yang's voice was grave.

He naturally knew of that Blue Silver King.

But as time passed, the more contact he had with the people of this world, the more he changed the original course of the story.

The Blue Silver King had been a great help to Tang San.

Because of that connection, he and Tang Hao could be considered friends.

But now they were mortal enemies!

Whoosh!

Ye Yang suddenly fired a Soul Bone leaf, piercing a camouflaged Thousand-Year pit viper on an ancient tree.

The Soul Beast was not large, only one zhang long and as thick as an arm.

But it was highly venomous, and even five-thousand-year Soul Beasts were unwilling to provoke it.

"System! Spend my points and activate tenfold Devouring!"

[Replying to host: Due to the principle of conservation of energy, this system can convert at most sixty percent of the target's Soul Power. However, Devouring speed can still be increased tenfold. Does the host confirm activation of tenfold Devouring?]

Without a doubt, this would waste 5,000 points.

But right now, time was what mattered most.

As for points, Ye Yang had plenty-nearly 300,000!

"Confirm tenfold Devouring!"

[Ding! Consumed 10,283 points. Devouring speed increased tenfold, Devouring conversion efficiency increased sixfold.]

The next instant, all the Soul Power and the essence of the Thousand-Year venomous pit viper's flesh and blood were devoured!

Ye Yang converted its Soul Power into 603 years of cultivation.

As for the essence of its flesh and blood, the Blue Silver Quasi-Emperor Snake Tail External Soul Bone absorbed all of it, since both were snakes.

In addition, the Soul Bone gained the same 603 years of Soul Power that Ye Yang had gained.

This was the marked improvement an External Soul Bone gained from devouring a Soul Beast of its own kind.

Tang San's Man Faced Demon Spider External Soul Bone could directly devour a Cave Demon Spider to strengthen itself.

The same held true for Ye Yang. He could use snake-type Soul Beasts to quickly strengthen his Snake Tail External Soul Bone.

If he absorbed other Soul Beasts, the conversion would be gradual.

Devouring this Thousand-Year Soul Beast was effortless for Ye Yang, and it did not slow Ah Yin down.

She also knew that Ye Yang wanted to strengthen himself further to fight those two powerful enemies.

Although he had gravely injured them and sent them fleeing four days ago,

they were certainly prepared now and would not give Ye Yang another chance.

Facing an level-80 Soul Master who was fully prepared for battle head-on would be no small pressure.

Along the way, Ye Yang hunted down three more thousand-year snake-type Soul Beasts in succession, gaining around 2,300 years of Soul Power.

There were also ten-thousand-year snake-type Soul Beasts, but he frightened them away.

He had no time to chase them either.

Traveling at full speed, they crossed most of the mixed zone in a little over ten minutes and entered the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

This was a fairly secluded little valley, where spiritual Qi was not particularly dense and energy was scarce.

As a result, there were few Soul Beasts inside, and the vegetation was sparse.

Only Blue Silver Grass did not disdain such a place. It had seized the opportunity to occupy it, forming a vast grassland.

A peculiar short tree had taken root near the foot of the mountain.

It was only two or three zhang tall, but thicker than a bucket.

This was no grass at all, but an ancient tree!

A hazy old man's face could be seen on the ancient tree.

At this moment, he was waving a great number of roots, vines, and leaves to fend off Tang Xiao's attacks and Tang Hao's harassment.

Tree sap splattered everywhere in great quantities. It was his blood.

By now, the two men had nearly torn him apart, leaving only half a stump.

The Clear Sky Hammer had also blasted crater after crater into the ground below, smashing his roots and severing his origin!

As the Blue Silver Emperor, Ah Yin could sense every member of her kind in the Star Dou Great Forest who had reached the level of Blue Silver Quasi-King or above.

That was how she had sensed Ye Yang back then.

The old Blue Silver King's origin had been damaged, and his life hung by a thread. Naturally, she could sense it too.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Tang Xiao had activated his Martial Soul Avatar. Ignoring the Blue Silver King's attacks, he smashed the Blue Silver King's roots apart again and again.

Even the small mountain beside him was shattered, and all the roots beneath its foot were smashed to pieces!

Tang Hao struck from a distance, his right foot on the ground as he hopped swiftly on one leg.

He held the Clear Sky Hammer in his left hand and smashed root after root.

The Blue Silver Grass roots lacked offensive power. Even with Tang Hao reduced to half-baked strength, his attacks still yielded considerable results.

"Senior!"

Ah Yin cried out from far away.

Seeing the Blue Silver King's miserable state filled her with grief and anger.

Startled, Tang Xiao and Tang Hao looked up.

The four of them met one another's gazes, eye to eye.

Tang Hao and his brother shouted angrily in unison, "You two again!"

Ye Yang and Ah Yin, meanwhile, gritted their teeth and said, "So it really was you!"

But Tang Xiao sensed that Ye Yang had completely recovered.

Moreover, after sensing that Ye Yang had grown considerably stronger than he had been a few days ago, Tang Xiao forcibly suppressed his anger.

He knew that if they continued to fight head-on, the disaster from a few days ago would happen again.

It might even be worse.

"Second brother! Let's go!"

He grabbed Tang Hao and leaped into the air, preparing to leave.

"You want to leave? Ask whether I agree first!"

Ye Yang shouted.

"Ah Yin, throw me over there!"

The Blue Silver Emperor did not hesitate. She trusted Ye Yang's choice.

Her hands looked slender and delicate, yet they possessed great strength.

Ye Yang curled himself into a ball, and she hurled him far through the air.

Like a cannonball, he hurtled toward the fleeing Tang Xiao.

Spiritual Shock!

Tang Xiao's head went blank, as though it had been struck hard by a great iron hammer, and nearly burst.

Stars danced before his eyes. The spiritual trauma he suffered was far worse than what Tang Hao had endured four days ago.

His Spiritual Power was inferior to Tang Hao's.

And Ye Yang's Spiritual Power was now considerably stronger than it had been while his Quasi-Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline was transforming.

When Tang Xiao bit hard on the tip of his tongue and forced himself back to his senses, he made a shocking discovery that filled him with fury.

His second brother was once again being beaten senseless by that damned Blue Silver Grass!

This was a real beating while hanging!

Several leaves were tangled in Tang Hao's hair, suspending him in midair.

Of the remaining leaves, some had become hammers, some had wrapped themselves into pointed spears, and others were blades and swords, constantly attacking Tang Hao from all sides.

Tang Hao struggled without cease. At the same time, disregarding the injury to his right arm, he had no choice but to grip the Clear Sky Hammer with both hands and resist with all his strength.

"Let him go!"

"That Blue Silver King can still recover. Otherwise, he'll die with him!"

Tang Xiao roared, his eyes crimson as he burned his essence blood and charged at the Blue Silver King.

Ah Yin had just been about to treat the Blue Silver King, but now she had no choice except to meet Tang Xiao.

With Tang Xiao burning his essence blood, his combat strength was terrifying.

Ah Yin, who did not excel at attacking, was driven back again and again.

"If I die, you die with me!"

Tang Hao was also consumed by towering rage. He stirred the Soul Bones in his arm and left leg, intending to burn and detonate them!

"Get lost!"

"Go die with your brother!"

Ye Yang barked, dozens of leaves exerting force at once to hurl him far away.

Seeing this, Tang Xiao hurriedly stopped attacking and raced over. He caught the battered Tang Hao in his arms once more and quickly fled.

"This enmity is irreconcilable! We won't rest until one of us is dead!"

Tang Xiao's furious roar quickly faded into the distance.

Tch!

Ye Yang sneered disdainfully to himself.

However, he was not actually confident that he could kill Tang Hao.

If Tang Hao truly threw his life away, burning his Soul Power, essence blood, Soul Bones, and the like to take him down with him,

even if he did not die, he would certainly be badly injured.

Besides, if Tang Hao died, Tang Xiao would surely go mad and fight desperately as well.

If they really fought it out, the Blue Silver King, who had not received treatment, would certainly die.

And Ah Yin would be hurt too.

Two deaths in exchange for one death and two injuries.

It was not worth it.

Ye Yang landed and used his Spiritual Power to control several leaves, bracing them against the ground like legs and carrying his main body toward the old Blue Silver King.

His expression also grew solemn.

Ah Yin, meanwhile, was filled with anxiety and sorrow.

"Good! Very good!"

Seeing Ye Yang approach, the old man's face on the half-trunk broke into a smile.

"I never thought I would live to see a second emperor born among the Blue Silver clan. Even if I die, it will have been worth it."

P.S. My contract status has changed. Congratulations to the nine investors on each getting 2.5 yuan, haha. You can send tips and monthly votes now. Monthly votes are no use to a flop newbie, but as for tips... could I shamelessly ask you big shots for a tip? One yuan is enough! Many thanks!
