After Xu Yunxiao stopped his attack, the Blue Silver Emperor felt the pressure lift and immediately let out a sigh of relief. However, upon seeing the dangerous aura emanating from his palm, her heart trembled.
Several leaves lifted, wiping away non-existent sweat, and she composed herself before explaining.
"The Blue Silver Grass clan can only produce one Emperor per generation. Unless the previous Emperor passes away, no new Blue Silver Emperor will be born..."
"That works out perfectly. After I kill you and absorb your Spirit Bone, Yi Yi can smoothly take over your imperial position and advance to become the new Blue Silver Emperor," Xu Yunxiao said impolitely, his desire stirring again.
"No, no, no..." The Blue Silver Emperor was startled, her golden leaves shaking rapidly as she said, "Even if you kill me, it won't work, because there's still another Blue Silver Emperor in existence."
"Didn't you say only one Blue Silver Emperor could exist in an era? Are you lying to us?" A dangerous glint flashed in Xu Yunxiao's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Xu Tianyang seemed to ponder, realizing the other Blue Silver Emperor must be Ah Yin.
She was currently in a state of seed nirvana, but her essence was indeed that of a Blue Silver Emperor; she had not truly perished. The 80,000-year-old Blue Silver King in the Blue Silver Forest had been waiting for Ah Yin's return.
"A few years ago, I did sense the existence of another Blue Silver Emperor, far beyond the Sun Moon Continent. The Blue Silver Grass there worships another Emperor," the Blue Silver Emperor explained excitedly, afraid of displeasing Xu Yunxiao.
"Can you coexist?" Yang Yiyi asked curiously. This concerned her Spirit, and she was very interested in it.
"The other Blue Silver Emperor seems to have encountered some problems. I can feel that my authority is extending towards her," the Blue Silver Emperor hesitated for a moment before choosing to tell the truth.
"Is that why your cultivation also broke through?"
"Precisely." She gave Xu Tianyang an unexpected look; this human actually knew her affairs so clearly.
Can't afford to offend him, can't afford to offend him!
"To what extent can you help Yi Yi awaken her Spirit with all your power?" Xu Tianyang asked, looking at the Blue Silver Emperor.
The Blue Silver Emperor hesitated, then extended a golden vine that wrapped around Yang Yiyi's wrist.
After sensing for a while, the Blue Silver Emperor said, "Her Spirit's strength is good. If I act, I can help her evolve to the level of a Blue Silver King. As for a Blue Silver Emperor, it's impossible; I cannot do it."
In truth, the Blue Silver Emperor was lying. If she completely sacrificed herself to Yang Yiyi, Yang Yiyi's Spirit would be enough to evolve into a Blue Silver Emperor, but then she would cease to exist.
She had no intention of sacrificing herself for others.
The Blue Silver Emperor did not tell the truth.
This thought immediately arose in Xu Tianyang's mind, and a murderous glint flashed in his eyes, but he nodded calmly.
"A Blue Silver King?" Xu Tianyang murmured, "That's acceptable. An Abyssal Blue Silver King Spirit is already comparable to a top-tier Spirit."
Since the Blue Silver Emperor was not honest, she would serve perfectly as Yang Yiyi's ninth spirit ring.
As for persuading her to sign a contract with Yang Yiyi and become a soul spirit, Xu Tianyang couldn't be bothered to waste his breath.
The Blue Silver Emperor was on the verge of breaking through 200,000 years, and with her Blue Silver Domain, she could completely survive the fierce beast tribulation.
She still had a long lifespan to live, so why would she risk everything to pursue the elusive opportunity of becoming a god with Yang Yiyi?
And Yang Yiyi's opportunity for her Spirit to break through to Blue Silver Emperor would fall to Ah Yin.
Follow Tang San's path, and leave him no path to take!
"Child, come here!"
The Blue Silver Emperor guided Yang Yiyi closer, and then an incredibly vast aura suddenly surged. It did not originate from the Blue Silver Emperor in front, but rather from the Blue Silver Grass throughout the entire valley.
A faint blue light quietly emerged from every single Blue Silver Grass. The light from one Blue Silver Grass might just be a tiny blue speck, but when the blue light from billions of Blue Silver Grass gathered together, it became a blue ocean.
Yang Yiyi now became the center of this ocean. Her body was like a giant maw, frantically devouring the rapidly surging blue ocean from outside.
On her body, spirit rings appeared one after another.
Yellow, purple, purple—three spirit rings quietly emerged without rhythm, instead aligning neatly in order on Yang Yiyi's body.
And those countless vast blue specks quickly infiltrated these three spirit rings, imbuing each of them with a layer of blue halo.
"Only today do I realize that a weak Spirit Beast like the Blue Silver Grass can unleash such terrifying energy."
Looking at the spectacular scene before him, Xu Yunxiao walked beside Xu Tianyang and exclaimed in admiration.
Xu Tianyang nodded. His perception was even keener. He clearly felt that at this moment, Yang Yiyi's entire body's attributes were invisibly increasing.
She looked more coordinated and more perfect as a whole.
Possessing the devouring attribute herself, her vitality was already stronger than that of an average Spirit Master, and at this moment, the vigorous vitality on her body reached an extremely terrifying level.
"What an astonishing transformation, no less impressive than consuming an Immortal Herb," Xu Yunxiao said, feeling the changes in Yang Yiyi before and after, looking at the Blue Silver Emperor and Yang Yiyi in surprise.
From today on, he would re-evaluate the Blue Silver Grass clan. He hadn't expected that even a weak species like the Blue Silver Grass could become so powerful after advancing to 100,000 years.
Indeed, every race has its own advantages, but these advantages are often difficult to maximize.
The blue light gradually receded, and Yang Yiyi also woke up. Her original three or four spirit rings disappeared into her body one by one, and the countless blue lights also began to rapidly condense into Yang Yiyi's body.
Yang Yiyi's spirit power, therefore, directly broke through three levels, reaching level thirty-seven, entering the ranks of high-tier Spirit Elders.
"Thank you, Senior Blue Silver!" Feeling the astonishing changes in herself, Yang Yiyi smiled lightly as she looked at the Blue Silver Emperor.
"Human, this Emperor has fulfilled your request. I hope you keep your promise and no longer disturb our peaceful cultivation," the Blue Silver Emperor said with a solemn voice, not looking at Yang Yiyi, but staring at Xu Tianyang and Xu Yunxiao.
"Of course, since the transaction has been completed, I will issue an order upon my return that the Valley of Life will henceforth be designated a forbidden area, and the people of the Sun Moon Empire shall not enter it without permission. Your Excellency, the Blue Silver Emperor, may cultivate in peace," Xu Yunxiao nodded, speaking solemnly.
Upon hearing this, the Blue Silver Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not completely relax.
"Farewell, Your Majesty the Blue Silver Emperor!"
After sensing that the auras of the three had completely vanished from her perception, the Blue Silver Emperor finally couldn't hold on any longer, her aura becoming listless, and she murmured to herself.
"I wonder if what this Emperor did was right or wrong?
I hope they keep their promise. The 200,000-year tribulation is about to descend, and I've expended a lot of my origin this time. I must quickly recover; the heavenly tribulation is not easy to overcome!"
