Chapter 66: The Shy Ah Yin, Blessing of the Blue Silver Emperor!
Ah Yin, who had been withdrawing into herself, suddenly felt a mysterious force envelop her entire body.
Immediately afterward, she discovered in shock that her speed of absorbing energy had instantly increased to ten times its original rate!
"What is this power?" Ah Yin was stunned.
This meant that a critical reward had been triggered, indicating that Ah Yin's trust in the contents of Lin Yuan's diary had already reached the most basic threshold of 60%.
In other words, this love-brained girl had finally begun to develop thoughts of her own. Clearly, she had also started to sense that something was not quite right.
However, since Lin Yuan could not produce any concrete evidence, and everything written in the diary was merely conjecture, her trust had not reached 90%.
…
Early the next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into the mountain cave,
Lin Yuan, who had been sitting cross-legged the entire time, finally opened his eyes.
Boom!
An incomparably powerful aura instantly erupted from within his body!
On his right leg, intricate blue-gold patterns faintly appeared before quickly fading away.
"Huu…"
Lin Yuan let out a long breath, stood up, and stretched his muscles.
"The fusion succeeded!"
"Although the process was a bit painful, the result is perfect."
He glanced at the system interface and only then realized that two full days had already passed.
Aside from obtaining the second level of the Chaos God-Killing Codex on the first day, today the system has refreshed another brand-new reward.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing today's diary entry (automatic settlement). Reward obtained: Blue Silver Emperor Exclusive Nurturing Solution (1 bottle).]
[Effect Description: Contains supreme life essence. Drip a single drop onto the soil where the Blue Silver Emperor is planted to accelerate its growth by a hundredfold and purify its bloodline.]
Seeing this reward, Lin Yuan froze for a moment, then laughed.
'System, system, you really understand me.'
'Are you worried that my progress in winning over Ah Yin is too slow, so you deliberately sent me some divine assistance?'
'With this thing, I refuse to believe I can't sweep this simple-minded wife off her feet!'
Lin Yuan turned his head and looked at the Blue Silver Emperor, which seemed slightly more spirited after receiving the "tenfold cultivation halo."
At this moment, Ah Yin's leaves were fully spread out, golden points of light flowing within the deep-blue veins.
She also seemed to be curiously observing Lin Yuan, sensing the familiar yet unfamiliar aura of the Blue Silver Emperor emanating from him (originating from the soul bone).
Lin Yuan said nothing. Instead, with gentle movements, he took out a white jade pot that he had prepared long ago from his soul tool.
Then, he carefully dug up Ah Yin, roots and soil intact.
Transplant—into the pot.
After completing all this, Lin Yuan flipped his wrist, and the small jade bottle containing the [Blue Silver Emperor Exclusive Nurturing Solution] appeared in his hand.
He then gently dripped that drop of emerald-green liquid—so vivid it seemed as if it could drip water—onto the soil in the jade pot.
The instant the liquid touched the soil, an intensely rich blue glow of life burst forth!
Ah Yin felt a warm current instantly wrap around her entire body. Her roots, which had grown somewhat withered from years spent in a dark cave, suddenly began to grow and stretch wildly!
What delighted her even more was that, on top of the "tenfold cultivation halo," this single drop of liquid brought about a hundredfold growth acceleration!
In other words, if cultivating for one year would normally grant her ten years of cultivation, then under this stacked multiplier, she would gain ten thousand years of cultivation!
One year—ten thousand years of cultivation!
This was something she had never even dared to imagine before!
That also meant that in just ten years, she would be able to transform once again!
Other soul beasts might not be able to achieve ten years of cultivation within a single year—but she could!
After all, she was rebuilding her cultivation from scratch. Having a slightly faster cultivation speed was only natural, right?
The look in Ah Yin's eyes as she gazed at the young man before her changed—it became extremely complicated.
This was clearly their first meeting. So why was Lin Yuan treating her so well?
Yet, at present, she was unable to speak and could not ask him directly.
Lin Yuan seemed to have seen through Ah Yin's thoughts. He extended a finger and gently stroked her crystal-clear, satin-soft leaf.
"Feels pretty nice."
Lin Yuan chuckled softly, his voice warm and magnetic. "You'll have to endure staying in my soul tool for a while."
"When we return to the academy, I'll set up a home for you on my balcony."
"There'll be the warmest sunlight and the freshest air there, ten thousand times more comfortable than this lousy cave."
His fingers lightly brushed across the leaf. That tingling sensation made Ah Yin's leaves instinctively curl slightly, as if she were shy.
'This person… why is he touching me like this… He really is just like Xiao Wu said—there's a bit of a pervert vibe to him.'
Although Ah Yin felt shy in her heart, strangely enough, she did not feel the slightest bit of disgust.
After placing Ah Yin back into the soul tool, Lin Yuan finally focused his mind and began sensing the two major soul bone skills he had obtained.
The first was the primary soul skill.
[Wildfire Cannot Destroy the Grass, It Grows Again With the Spring Wind]
This was an utterly heaven-defying support skill.
As long as he still had even a single breath left—even if his body were severely crippled—as long as he had enough soul power, this skill could rapidly regenerate severed limbs and repair internal organs.
Paired with the [Healing] talent bound from Ah Yin, he was practically an unkillable cockroach!
If there was any drawback, it was that this healing ability did not involve the spiritual aspect.
Next came the second soul bone skill.
In the original story, what Tang San obtained was [Flight].
In the early stages, this skill was indeed quite good, granting ground-based soul masters aerial dominance—useful for both escape and kiting.
But Lin Yuan considered it rather mediocre.
In the later stages, even a random Titled Douluo could fly, rendering the advantage of flight soul skills completely obsolete.
After all, this flight skill originated from Ah Yin rather than a true flying soul beast. At the same cultivation age, the flight speed it provided was naturally inferior.
Moreover, once his soul power increased and his forging level improved, he could begin crafting a Two-Word Battle Armor for himself.
Two-Word Battle Armor came with wings!
Fortunately, because Lin Yuan's martial soul was the God-Killing Spear—focused primarily on slaughter and vastly different from Tang San's Blue Silver Grass—something changed.
During the absorption of the soul bone, the skill underwent a subtle mutation. The useless flight was removed, and a far more suitable ability awakened.
Lin Yuan took a deep breath and silently recited in his heart:
"Second soul bone skill—[Blessing of the Blue Silver Emperor]!"
As the skill was activated, a faint, almost imperceptible blue-gold halo enveloped Lin Yuan's entire body.
The next second, his pupils abruptly shrank.
"This…"
He clearly felt that his total soul power, soul power recovery speed, and the toughness of his muscles and meridians had all doubled in that instant!
A full 100% amplification!
What shocked Lin Yuan the most was not the magnitude of the buff—but the consumption.
"It actually consumes almost no soul power?!"
If he did not use any other soul skills and kept this soul bone skill active, he felt that the rate of soul power consumption and recovery was basically balanced.
Originally, he had thought that even for a hundred-thousand-year soul bone, a mere 100% boost—despite covering three attributes—felt inferior to some ten-thousand-year soul skills.
But after using it, he realized just how low the soul power consumption truly was!
This skill could practically be treated as a passive ability!
"So this is a hundred-thousand-year soul bone?" Lin Yuan sighed.
Just based on the low consumption alone, he felt that this second soul bone skill was not inferior at all!
