That felt good!

So good!

Ye Yang's heart was full of wonder and pleasure.

The Blue Silver Emperor released the Blue Silver Domain, enveloping him.

Ye Yang felt as though he were in a fairyland, the finest sacred ground, nourishing him in every way, from his Soul Power and spirit to his bloodline.

The Blue Silver Emperor did not directly infuse him with energy.

But she was a great help to Ye Yang.

A vast domain formed, covering several thousand meters in every direction.

The aura of life was thick, and every blade of Blue Silver Grass within it rejoiced and grew rapidly.

They absorbed the power of the Blue Silver Emperor's domain, but also fed it back, strengthening the domain.

The same was true for Ye Yang.

In a sense, this was like a special form of dual cultivation for plants, mutually beneficial to both sides.

By releasing her domain, the Blue Silver Emperor not only suffered no depletion, but also cultivated and improved herself.

Ye Yang enjoyed the transformation taking place within him, deep at his very origin.

However, such a great commotion naturally could not continue indefinitely.

It would attract the attention of powerful experts.

It lasted only a few hours each day, but that was still equivalent to several days of cultivation.

After ten to fifteen days, Ye Yang and the Blue Silver Emperor would move to another place.

This was not only to avoid unnecessary danger; it was also Ye Yang's chance to hunt.

He was like a forest gardener. Every time they settled down, he hunted every plant Soul Beast within reach of his roots, sparing only the Blue Silver Grass!

As for animal Soul Beasts, if he could catch up to them, he naturally would not let them go either.

Ye Yang's cultivation improved rapidly.

Blue Silver Grass no longer objected, but she would not help Ye Yang hunt Soul Beasts either.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and midsummer arrived.

It had also been five months since Ye Yang transmigrated.

Over that month, his Soul Power had increased by more than a hundred years, bringing it close to a thousand years.

His bloodline level, however, had risen more slowly, increasing by only one level to 71.

To reach level 72, he needed 72 evolution points, so progress was naturally even slower.

He had gained very few spirit points as well, only a mere handful, bringing his spirit points past 60.

That speed was actually quite fast.

But for Ye Yang, it was still far from enough.

On this day, the Blue Silver Emperor took Ye Yang to a new location for the fifth time.

After Ye Yang rooted himself in the soil, his spirits soon lifted!

He sensed a plant Soul Beast!

A genuine plant Soul Beast!

Not the kind of flower, grass, or tree that had slowly gained Soul Power after being nourished by it.

This was a plant Soul Beast capable of attacking from the outset.

After Ye Yang spread his roots outward, he was even more delighted.

A Ghost Vine!

It was a dark vine as thick as an arm, coiled around a large tree.

The vine was covered in hooked thorns.

Ye Yang still remembered that this was Tang San's second Soul Skill.

In the original story, Tang San had absorbed a Ghost Vine of around 600 years, granting his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul the Parasite Soul Skill.

In addition, it had the auxiliary abilities of paralysis and entanglement.

Nearly a thousand years of Soul Power. Not bad!

After sensing his opponent's strength, Ye Yang rejoiced inwardly.

If he were only ordinary Blue Silver Grass, he naturally would have been no match for the Ghost Vine.

But Ye Yang now had the bloodline of a quasi-king of Blue Silver Grass.

Even against a 1,500-year-old Ghost Vine, he could put up a fight.

He focused his mind and sent all his roots spreading toward the Ghost Vine, holding nothing back.

With the Blue Silver Emperor guarding his main body, he did not have to worry about anyone "backdooring his tower."

As Ye Yang's countless roots approached menacingly, the Ghost Vine sensed something too.

Ye Yang's attack came from underground.

It was difficult for many Soul Beasts to guard against.

But the Ghost Vine was not among them.

It was a parasitic plant Soul Beast, rooting itself in large trees and absorbing the Soul Power of other plants and even animal Soul Beasts.

It was not afraid of Ye Yang "backdooring its tower" either.

Moreover, its innate parasitic skill was terrifying.

Ye Yang's roots burrowed beneath the tree, and a portion of them split off and instantly wrapped around its roots.

Devour!

Rather than let it nourish the enemy, he might as well take it for himself.

Soon, Ye Yang devoured all the tree's Soul Power and vitality, and it quickly withered.

Rustle!

As the leaves fell, Ye Yang's roots burst out of the soil.

There were a full two hundred main roots, each as thick as a chopstick.

Under cover of the dead leaves, they shot skyward and pounced on the Ghost Vine!

However, this Ghost Vine was cunning as a devil.

It had actually used its Parasite Soul Skill in advance, expelling tiny seeds from its vine and letting them fall with the dead leaves.

Now they sprouted in an instant, taking root and winding around Ye Yang's roots!

Devour!

The Ghost Vine's parasitic ability was also a powerful form of devouring.

In addition, it had the auxiliary abilities of paralysis and entanglement.

However, although the two sides were evenly matched in Soul Power and the Ghost Vine's devouring ability was not weak,

it was still no match for Ye Yang.

The many little Ghost Vines parasitizing Ye Yang's roots grew rapidly, drawing on the main Ghost Vine's Soul Power and devouring their host's Soul Power.

But before they could absorb Ye Yang's Soul Power, Ye Yang absorbed theirs instead!

They had only just taken root and sprouted, and before they had time to grow, Ye Yang devoured them completely!

Ye Yang paid no mind even to the special paralyzing toxin.

Compared to the Demon Eye Demon Tree from before, this little bit of toxin fell far short.

[Beep! Ghost Vine Soul Power obtained +0.01 +0.01 +0.01...]

The system's voice rang out.

Although each Ghost Vine seed contained only 0.01 Soul Power,

in that instant, the Ghost Vine supplied hundreds upon hundreds of seeds!

In a single instant, they brought Ye Yang more than ten points of Soul Power.

[Beep! Congratulations, host. Soul Power has broken through to 1,000 years. Reward: 10,000 points!]

Ye Yang was overjoyed. He had finally waited for this moment!

He no longer had to worry about spending points.

"System, spend 1,000 points and double my devouring!"
