Chapter 8: The True Awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor, Multiple Uses of the Life Attribute
Inside the Blue Silver Forest.
The blue-gold light soaring into the sky circled high above for a very long time. Finally, after its vitality reached its peak, it completed its transformation and converged into the cocoon below, which was entirely formed from Blue Silver Grass.
Emerging from the cocoon, Chu Chen slowly stepped out.
Starlight-like purple light condensed, gathering around him to form his first Soul Ring, which was also his Innate Spirit Ring.
"Finally, the Blue Silver Emperor has completely awakened."
With a thought from Chu Chen, an invisible energy Domain erupted. Affected by this life force, the surrounding Blue Silver Grass grew even more rapidly.
Blue Silver Domain!
Within this Domain, he could not only strengthen himself and his companions but also weaken his enemies to a certain extent.
"Great King, the age of your first Soul Ring should be equivalent to that produced by a two-thousand-five-hundred-year Soul Beast."
"As you grow, your Innate Spirit Ring will also evolve."
The Blue Silver King's voice slowly faded, and the area gradually returned to tranquility. Chu Chen stepped forward, and the surging Soul Power within him was released at this moment.
After obtaining his first Soul Ring, his Soul Power finally achieved a Breakthrough, and the Soul Power he had previously accumulated also completed its circulation, reaching rank eighteen in one fell swoop.
"I actually reached rank eighteen. That's great."
Chu Chen's joyful voice rang out. Perhaps because his Blue Silver Grass had completely awakened as the Blue Silver Emperor, his overall strength had significantly improved.
Furthermore, his physique had become more robust. His previously neat short hair now reached his shoulders...
"It's really a pity not to go into the hair and beauty business after Awakening the Blue Silver Emperor."
Chu Chen eventually cut off the long hair; he still preferred it short.
Now, he released his Martial Soul once again.
After the Blue Silver Grass evolved into the Blue Silver Emperor, golden patterns spread from the leaves to the roots. The naturally formed textures became increasingly intricate, appearing somewhat mysterious.
Swish!
A sound of breaking air rang out as the Blue Silver Emperor burst from the ground, piercing through a rock with incredible speed.
Seeing the rock shatter, Chu Chen was extremely satisfied with the Blue Silver Emperor's current attack power. He continued to release Soul Power, and the extended Blue Silver Emperor seemed to possess a Martial Soul of its own, Binding another giant boulder.
Boom!
The boulder was hoisted into the air by the Blue Silver Emperor's Binding and then crashed down heavily, shattering into pieces.
"As expected, whether it's Binding, attacking, or healing, these are all innate abilities of the Blue Silver Grass itself. They only need the support of a powerful life force."
"Since it can possess these other attributes while utilizing its best attribute, life, why go out of the way to absorb a snake-type Soul Ring just to give the Blue Silver Grass the Binding trait?"
"It's simply misleading the students!"
Chu Chen continued to control the Blue Silver Emperor. Clusters of Blue Silver Emperor gathered around him, then, under the extreme compression of Soul Power, transformed into a short blade.
"So sharp..."
Chu Chen was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected the Blue Silver Emperor to have such a function. This wasn't a Soul Skill, but merely a special application of the Blue Silver Emperor.
Driven by Soul Power and condensed within a portion of the Blue Silver Emperor, it not only greatly increased its hardness but could even change its shape at will!
It could be used as a weapon.
Then, Chu Chen controlled the Blue Silver Emperor to constantly change: short blade, long sword, broadsword, heavy hammer...
"As Soul Power increases, the weapons condensed from the Blue Silver Emperor should also become even more powerful."
Chu Chen was a bit amazed. He probably hadn't expected the tiny Blue Silver Grass to have so many wonderful uses.
In comparison, a certain someone who made the Blue Silver Grass specialize in control...
Isn't that just being a clown?
Chu Chen smiled, and then the first Soul Ring slowly rose from the Blue Silver Emperor in his hand. The purple light pulsed, and then a surging aura of life swelled, gradually sinking into Chu Chen's body.
After using his first Soul Skill, Chu Chen's own aura seemed to change, as a faint blue-gold light enveloped the surroundings.
"First Soul Skill: Life Streamer."
The blue-gold light swirled around Chu Chen's body like starlight, making him look somewhat ethereal.
Chu Chen raised his hand, and the surrounding Blue Silver Grass seemed to be summoned, as a wisp of life energy condensed for his use.
He threw a punch with a powerful gale, creating a sound like thunder and shattering the trees in front of him!
Chu Chen withdrew his fist, and only then did the blue-gold starlight slowly dissipate, returning to the surroundings.
This was Chu Chen's first Soul Skill: Life Streamer.
It fully stimulates the Blue Silver Emperor's own life aura and, driven by Soul Power, transforms into a light of life to protect oneself. While greatly enhancing physical attributes, it also provides the ability to recover from injuries.
Furthermore, after Life Streamer is activated, the surrounding Blue Silver Grass, or even other plants, can condense life energy for Chu Chen to use!
"Although it lacks direct offensive capabilities, such an enhancement and the application of life energy are indeed excellent."
Chu Chen was clearly quite satisfied with his first Soul Skill.
He didn't lack offensive means.
By simply condensing his power to transform the Blue Silver Emperor into a weapon, and combining it with the enhancements from the Blue Silver Domain and Life Streamer, his attack power was not to be underestimated!
"The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and it's time to prepare for the return journey... Looking at the rising sun, my Awakening process must have lasted the whole night. If I don't go back soon, the Dean will probably give me a beatdown."
Chu Chen activated the Blue Silver Domain, providing life nutrients to the Blue Silver Grass growing here, making them even more robust.
His Martial Soul had evolved into the Blue Silver Emperor. It was only right for him to look after these Blue Silver Grass and grant them life protection.
After all, his life abilities were inseparable from these Blue Silver Grass; perhaps they could even be considered his subjects.
"After all, in this generation, I'm the only Blue Silver Emperor."
Chu Chen chuckled. Only one Blue Silver Emperor could exist at a time. As long as he lived, Tang San would never have the possibility of Awakening the Blue Silver Emperor.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen suddenly became curious about what kind of expressions Tang Hao and Tang San would have once they learned the truth.
"I wonder if the Chrysanthemum Petals I left behind misled Tang Hao. If Yue Guan finds out the truth, he'll probably want to beat me to death."
Chu Chen laughed heartily. He didn't really care about those things, as he wouldn't let others know anyway.
Until he possessed sufficient strength, he obviously wouldn't casually reveal the Blue Silver Emperor and the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone to others!
With his current power, he was still unable to contend with Tang Hao, but he had enough confidence that with the surging life force of the Blue Silver Emperor, he would possess terrifyingly powerful combat strength in the near future.
At that time, what would Tang Hao even matter?
