Chapter 221: Tianlin’s Deal

To hunt the Blue Silver King, they first had to find it. Tianlin didn't know exactly where the blue silver forest was, but it must be close to Tang Hao and Tang San's current location, for convenience when Tang San reached level 50 and awakened the Blue Silver Emperor. But not too close, since there was a small village at the foot of the mountain where Tang Hao and Tang San were training. No village would be built next to a soul beast forest—that's just asking for trouble. This made sense to Tianlin. After all, Tang San was still growing, and needed food—the village was where Tang Hao got supplies. Tianlin and the others landed outside the village and found the village chief, whose son happened to be a level 29 Soul Grandmaster. Guided by the chief's son, they learned that heading east for five to seven days on foot would bring them to a soul beast forest—smaller than Sunset or Star Dou Forests, but much larger than ordinary hunting grounds, and mostly plant-type spirit beasts. He had obtained his white and yellow rings there. Tianlin guessed this was their destination. He thanked the chief's son and gave him a True Essence Pill to help him break through to level 30. The four hurried east. Though it was a five-day walk, they flew and arrived in less than three hours. Yin Yang soared high, using his Eagle's Eye, and soon found the forest. They flew deep inside—their target was the Blue Silver King of over 85,000 years, which would be the absolute ruler of any forest except Star Dou. Here, it would be at the very center. "There is so much Blue Silver Grass here," Ning Fengzhi observed. Blue Silver Grass was common on the continent, but the sheer number here was unusual—as if they'd entered a Blue Silver Empire. "Please stop. Outsiders are not welcome in the Blue Silver Forest. Leave immediately!" Suddenly, a voice echoed in their ears. "Very powerful—at least an 80,000-year beast. There?" Chen Xin looked in a direction and sent out a sword aura. Though the voice was spiritual and hard to locate, his level 98 power made it easy. A massive ancient tree extended a vine-like Blue Silver Grass, which blocked Chen Xin's sword aura but regrew in moments. Such regeneration was far beyond normal beasts. "A Titled Douluo! Why are you here?" A face appeared on the tree. "To hunt a soul beast—and our target is you. You must be the strongest Blue Silver Grass under the Emperor, the 85,000-year Blue Silver King." Chen Xin drew his sword, and nine rings appeared. Ning Fengzhi and Yin Yang also released their martial souls. The Blue Silver King sighed heavily. "Two Titled Douluos, one level 90 quasi-title douluo. I waited not for the Emperor, but for you. It seems my life ends today." Despite the sad words, Tianlin heard no sorrow—only calm acceptance. "This Blue Silver King is not only powerful but has remarkable composure," Tianlin thought. He stopped Chen Xin. "Master, wait—I want to speak to the Blue Silver King." Chen Xin paused. Tianlin said, "Blue Silver King, you know your emperor is dead, and the next has not yet awakened. In other words, at present, there is no Blue Silver Emperor. Any Blue Silver Grass reaching 100,000 years first will become the new emperor—including you." "What do you mean?" Blue Silver King asked. "I offer you a chance. You're 15,000 years from 100,000. I can give you those years if, after becoming a hundred-thousand-year beast, you sacrifice yourself to my Uncle Ning." A soul beast's voluntary sacrifice allows a perfect ring fit, stronger soul skills, and a bigger power boost for the spirit master. "Heh, child, I hope for the Emperor's return to protect our kind. Even if I become emperor, sacrificing myself for another—what's the point?" "Of course, there's a point. Have you heard of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?" Tianlin asked, knowing the King's broad experience. The face shifted. "I've heard of it—a paradise for plant soul beasts, accelerating growth a hundredfold, and for Blue Silver Emperor, even more." Tianlin smiled. "Exactly. With your emperor bloodline, after sacrifice, you can leave behind a seed, retaining your bloodline, and with the Well, plus my domain, you'll recover ten times faster. Not ten years—maybe less—to reach 100,000 years again." He released his Holy Spirit Domain, rich with life force. "Such vitality! With the emperor bloodline and the mystical Well, a year equals a thousand years, and your domain boosts it tenfold. Less than ten years to recover my power. Even if it takes twenty or a hundred, this is a good deal," Blue Silver King calculated. Better than being killed outright. "Senior, it may take longer—I can't stay at the Well all the time, but I'll visit often to help," Tianlin said honestly. "No matter. Even if it takes a hundred years, I profit greatly," Blue Silver King smiled, calm as ever. "So, Senior, do you accept? I swear on my twin martial souls to keep my promise—" Blue Silver King interrupted, "No need for an oath. I trust you. From your orb, I sense unparalleled benevolence. It may not be yours, but since it recognizes you, you are trustworthy." "Thank you, Senior!" Tianlin bowed. PS: Read atleast 200 advanced chapters at p@treon .com/AbsoluteCode
