[Host has fused the 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, plundering a moderate amount of Tang San's fortune!]
[Reward: Nine Yang Divine Art—Grand Perfection Realm!]
"Crack—"
"Crack—"
His Ren and Du meridians were instantly unblocked, allowing all eight extraordinary meridians to flow freely!
Now, he was completely immune to all poisons and possessed an indestructible body!
A perfect counter to Tang San's poison techniques and hidden weapons.
If before, when his Nine Yang Divine Art was at the minor achievement stage, his meridians were a single-lane road—
Then, after being expanded by the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, they became a ten-lane highway.
But now, with his Ren and Du meridians fully opened, it was like an unlimited-speed expressway!
This was a fundamental transformation!
His internal energy from Nine Yang Divine Art began to circulate automatically, absorbing heaven and earth's soul power to increase his level.
His internal power was now self-perpetuating—he could cultivate on autopilot!
Tang Lan was so delighted that his eyes curved into crescents as he smiled.
A Mother's Blessing
The branches of the Blue Silver Emperor drooped, gently stroking the top of Tang Lan's head—
Like a mother praising her child for his excellence.
Before Tang Lan could respond—
The leaves suddenly formed a necklace around his neck.
"Rip—"
The branches tore apart, and the sap splashed onto his face—
Warm to the touch.
Tang Lan's heart clenched.
Did it hurt?
His brows furrowed, but he did not speak.
Whether his mother, Ah Yin, still had her own consciousness was unknown.
The more he said, the greater the chance of making a mistake.
If he revived her later, it would be hard to explain.
As he was lost in thought—
The branch gently pushed him toward the cave entrance, urging him to leave.
A light, ethereal voice whispered in his ear—
"Follow the feeling."
"Feeling?"
What feeling?
He turned back to glance at the Blue Silver Emperor, sensing its impatient urging.
Tang Lan nodded. "I will come back!"
Then, he strode out without hesitation.
Leaving the Waterfall
Exiting this time was much easier.
Activating soul power, he triggered his Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone's first soul bone ability—Flight!
A blue-gold glow emerged from his right leg, gently lifting him into the air.
He hurled the Thunderflame Clear Sky Hammer again, parting the rushing water—
And effortlessly slipped through the gap, stopping just outside the waterfall.
That was when he finally understood what Ah Yin meant by "feeling".
The grass-leaf necklace around his neck was emitting a faint pulling force—
Pointing north.
Tang Lan had absolute trust that his mother would never harm him.
Without hesitation, he flew north.
The energy consumption of his flight ability was directly proportional to his speed and altitude.
But now, with Nine Yang Divine Art at Grand Perfection, his internal energy was limitless.
To put it simply—
His energy recovery was ridiculously fast.
So, he adjusted his speed—
Faster than running, but slower than sprinting—
Allowing his energy regeneration to perfectly match his consumption.
Flying Toward Destiny
At this rate—
He could keep flying indefinitely.
After flying for half an hour,
A deep, aged voice suddenly echoed in Tang Lan's mind—
"Emperor?"
"Great Emperor, is that you?"
"You have finally arrived! Thank the heavens!"
Hmm…
Tang Lan didn't recognize this voice.
But he definitely recognized those words!
Wasn't this exactly what the 85,000-year-old Blue Silver King had said when it first met Tang San?
Wait—
The awakened Blue Silver Grass martial soul wasn't truly the Blue Silver Emperor yet.
Tang San had only fully awakened into the Blue Silver Emperor with the help of the Blue Silver King, gaining a spirit ring that could evolve.
So—
His mother sent him here to complete his awakening and obtain a spirit ring?!
'Mothers really do take care of their children.'
'That cheap father of mine, Tang Hao, just wants me to forge metal and buy him booze!'
With a silent complaint in his heart—
Tang Lan accelerated, soaring over a vast field of Blue Silver Grass, until he finally saw…
A towering blade of grass?
If he hadn't sensed the unique aura of Blue Silver Grass,
Tang Lan would never have believed that this massive tree had once been just an ordinary roadside weed.
A radiant blue light condensed, forming into a semi-transparent elder.
The Blue Silver King's Oath
Tang Lan struck first, using his mother's reputation as leverage.
"Are you the Blue Silver King that my mother sent me to find?"
The Blue Silver King elder slowly descended, bowing respectfully to Tang Lan—
A six-year-old child.
His gaze fell upon the necklace of Blue Silver Grass around Tang Lan's neck,
And his eyes turned misty with emotion.
"After the fall of the Blue Silver Emperor, I never thought her bloodline would still remain!"
"To witness your arrival, my great Emperor, as your loyal subject, we shall forever protect you!"
Then—
"Will you… grant your people your protection?"
Not gonna lie—
This Blue Silver King was a damn loyal blade of grass.
It hadn't even considered killing Tang Lan to take the Blue Silver Emperor's throne for itself after cultivating for a few more millennia.
Tang Lan didn't waste words—he simply nodded firmly.
"When I become a Titled Douluo, I will establish a sanctuary—"
"A place where all Blue Silver Grass with sentience can grow in peace!"
He was serious!
Unlike Tang San, who drained them dry when he needed power, then discarded them like trash when he didn't.
Tang Lan's sincerity made the Blue Silver King elder smile with joy.
"Merciful Emperor, please accept the reverence of your people!"
The Blue Silver King elder kneeled first.
The surrounding Blue Silver Grass swayed rhythmically, releasing countless tiny blue light particles.
They gathered toward Tang Lan.
His Life Soul Blue Silver Grass martial soul automatically manifested, hungrily absorbing the blue light.
A warm energy surged through his body, making him instinctively close his eyes.
This… feels amazing!
Was this what they meant by "divine pleasure"?!
He had no idea how long it lasted—
Until the system's notification rang in his mind—
[Host has transformed into the one and only Blue Silver Emperor, plundering a massive amount of Tang San's fortune!]
[Reward: Blue Silver Domain - Camouflage Evolution - Form Transformation!]
Oh?
The Blue Silver Domain was an innate domain that came with awakening the Blue Silver Emperor. Its base ability was camouflage.
But this "Form Transformation" ability—
It allowed him to freely alter the appearance of his martial soul.
How useful is that?
The Blessing of the Blue Silver Emperor
Within Tang Lan's consciousness,
Countless blue light particles emerged, followed by waves of Blue Silver Grass.
They swayed gracefully, bowing in worship to their emperor.
Tang Lan instinctively responded to their reverence.
In the next instant—
All of the Blue Silver Grass rapidly grew larger, golden patterns spreading across them—
Temporarily evolving into Blue Silver Emperor variants!
With this temporary transformation,
These Blue Silver Grass plants would have a far greater chance of developing spiritual intelligence.
And in gratitude for their emperor's blessing—
They, in turn, offered even more life energy,
And even spiritual power!
All of it converged into a massive cocoon of light, completely encasing Tang Lan.
His body, soul, and even life essence continuously ascended to new heights!
Tang Hao's Arrival
The Blue Silver King elder watched, nodding in relief and admiration.
Their new emperor was not only benevolent but also exceptionally gifted.
A true blessing to the entire Blue Silver Grass race!
Suddenly—
"Who's there?!"
The Blue Silver King elder turned warily—
Only to see a disheveled, bearded man staring blankly at the radiant cocoon in the sky.
For a moment—
The blue-haired girl from his memories seemed to be smiling at him.
Tang Hao's eyes instantly reddened.
Six years…
For six years, he had been drowning in grief, unable to move past the pain of losing his wife.
He never thought there would be a day when he could see her again.
"Ah Yin… I failed you!"
Tears streamed down his face.
All his emotions erupted at once, completely uncontrollable.
He forgot he had come here to find his son—
Instead, he knelt before the glowing cocoon and sobbed uncontrollably.
In his mind, there was only Ah Yin—
Nothing else.
A Witness to Sorrow
The Blue Silver King elder was stunned.
He didn't recognize Tang Hao—
But seeing this man crying his heart out,
He could easily guess the situation.
So, he simply stood there in silent acknowledgment.
The Power of a Titled Douluo
After half an hour,
Tang Hao finally finished venting his emotions and stood up, his eyes still red.
"Buzzzzz—"
Nine soul rings emerged beneath his feet—
And the final ring, that deep blood-red glow—
Made the Blue Silver King elder's pupils contract in shock!
That was…
The aura of the Emperor!
