Chapter 7: Blue Silver King's Sacrifice, Innate Spirit Ring Awakening, Tang Hao Goes for Revenge
"The Blue Silver Grass here grows quite luxuriantly."
Chu Chen arrived here. He tried to squat down, and after summoning the Blue Silver Grass in his hand, he touched the Blue Silver Grass that was originally growing here.
A special resonance appeared between them. The Blue Silver Grass seemed to receive a surge of life force into its body, instantly becoming more robust. As it swayed in the wind, unique ripples spread forward.
"Using the connection between Blue Silver Grass to transmit information is much better than searching aimlessly."
Chu Chen then sat cross-legged on the spot and circulated the Soul Power within his body.
Using the flying Soul Bone skill along the way had consumed a certain amount of his Soul Power.
Now that he had reached a forest with such dense vegetation and Blue Silver Grass growing everywhere, the rich life force would help him quickly recover his Soul Power.
Ripples radiated forward using the blue-silver color as a medium. As the Blue Silver Grass continued to transmit them, the coverage area grew larger and larger...
This was the power of Blue Silver Grass; even a simple transmission of information was enough to cover the entire forest in a short time.
Chu Chen could even vaguely sense the condition of these Blue Silver Grass!
That is, sensing the environment around an individual Blue Silver Grass; this was clearly an excellent scouting ability.
"This..."
Chu Chen tried to touch the Blue Silver Grass in front of him, and then scenes actually appeared before his eyes.
They seemed to be scenes from shortly before he arrived here.
Memory reading!
"My Blue Silver Grass can actually be used like this, to read the memories of these Blue Silver Grass from a short time ago."
Just as Chu Chen was still immersed in the wonderful uses of Blue Silver Grass, an old, low voice suddenly rang out: "Great King... is it you..."
Chu Chen snapped back to his senses and looked toward the deepest part of the forest.
That was exactly where the calls were coming from. Chu Chen was delighted; it seemed he hadn't come to the wrong place.
Immediately, he used the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone skill and began to traverse forward. Along the way, he didn't see any powerful Soul Beasts; even those living here were just ordinary Soul Beasts that fed on vegetation.
"It seems this is a small forest occupied by Blue Silver Grass. Such rich life force has also attracted some gentle-tempered Soul Beasts."
Chu Chen followed the guidance of that calling voice, heading deeper and deeper into the forest.
The Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline in his body also seemed to start boiling.
"Great King... I am here..."
The calling voice grew closer and closer, almost within reach. Chu Chen landed in a hidden spot, surrounded by layers of vegetation, but after he arrived, the vegetation actively moved aside to make a path.
Blue Silver Grass grew everywhere here, and they were stronger than those on the outskirts of the forest, clearly having absorbed even richer life force.
Pushing aside the layers of vegetation, a Blue Silver Grass as tall as a towering tree appeared before Chu Chen—or rather, the Blue Silver King.
"Is this the Blue Silver King? Such surging life force is enough to protect the surrounding Soul Beasts."
Chu Chen marveled. He had no doubt that the Blue Silver King before him could perhaps mobilize the power of all the Blue Silver Grass in the entire forest.
That would be a truly terrifying power. No wonder no aggressive Soul Beasts appeared here; ordinary Soul Beasts coming here would be no match for the Blue Silver King.
"Great King, it really is you."
An old, illusory figure emerged. He looked at Chu Chen in front of him with excitement, his voice trembling.
"King?" Chu Chen asked, feigning confusion.
"Yes, Great King. The blood of the current Blue Silver Imperial Clan flows within you."
The Blue Silver King bowed reverently to Chu Chen and said, "I can feel the aura of the Blue Silver Emperor's Soul Bone on you..."
"Did the Blue Silver Empress pass down her Soul Bone Legacy to you after she passed away..."
Saying this, the Blue Silver King revealed a sorrowful emotion.
He sensed the familiar aura of the Blue Silver Emperor and became fully convinced of Chu Chen's identity.
"Great King, could you let me see your Blue Silver Grass?" the Blue Silver King pleaded.
Chu Chen nodded and released the Blue Silver Grass in his palm.
"Such surging life force, and these golden natural patterns—it truly is the Bloodline of the Blue Silver Imperial Clan. This is wonderful."
The Blue Silver King's old eyes filled with tears as he bowed to Chu Chen. "Great King, I will awaken the true Blue Silver Emperor for you. Are you... prepared?"
Chu Chen was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly.
"The Soul Ring that comes with the Blue Silver Emperor's Awakening will continuously evolve as your body's endurance improves. It couldn't be better for it to serve as your first Soul Ring now."
The Blue Silver King explained, "By obtaining the Martial Soul's Innate Spirit Ring as your first Soul Ring, your Martial Soul will only become more powerful. The earlier the Bloodline is activated, the stronger its abilities will become."
"I will do my best to suppress the power so that your first Soul Ring remains at the thousand-year level. Later, it will evolve to the ten-thousand-year level, or even higher."
Chu Chen feigned surprise. "A thousand-year Soul Ring?"
"Yes, Great King. Your physical fitness is excellent, enough to withstand a thousand-year Soul Ring. Let me perform the second Awakening of your Martial Soul for you."
The surrounding blue-gold light became increasingly intense. Strands of Blue Silver Grass gradually enveloped Chu Chen's body, and the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline within him also began to boil!
"Such a powerful resonance. My Blue Silver Grass is actually out of control..."
Chu Chen released his Martial Soul. For him, the process of Awakening was one of being enveloped by surging life force.
He could feel the Blue Silver King's power merging into himself—a power that was strong yet extremely gentle.
A continuous flow of life force bloomed, absorbed by his Blue Silver Grass and Physical Body, transforming into surging blood vitality!
"The true Blue Silver Emperor has finally awakened..."
The Blue Silver King knelt down and spoke deeply.
He watched the Awakening Chu Chen, crying tears of joy. He hadn't sensed this familiar Blue Silver Emperor aura in a long time.
Meanwhile, Tang Hao, who was on his way to Spirit City for revenge, felt his heart skip a beat, as if something had been completely lost.
"Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo! I will make you pay the price!"
Tang Hao held the Clear Sky Hammer, his killing intent surging! Since learning that Ah Yin and the Soul Bone had been taken away, Tang Hao had fallen into a state of madness.
It just so happened that Tang San had gone to school, so Tang Hao went directly to Spirit Hall seeking revenge, determined to kill Yue Guan no matter what!
"After I return this time, I must protect the Blue Silver King and save him for Little San's second Martial Soul Awakening... I clearly did it so covertly; how did Spirit Hall find out..."
Tang Hao was completely baffled. Ultimately, a frenzied rage occupied his heart, and he charged toward Spirit City with incomparable force.
