"H-How could it be you! Blue Silver Emperor!" The Monster-Eyed Tree King was dumbfounded.
"You are supposed to die..."
"After sacrificing yourself to that damned human."
"Damn it, all humans should-!"
Han Yuan narrowed his eyes, "All humans should what?"
The Monster-Eyed Tree King choked on its words and coughed, "Ahem, I mean, all humans shouldn't force our kin to sacrifice like that!"
"Do you know how difficult it was for plant-based spirit beasts to advance to the 100,000-year-old realm? We are a rare existence within Star Dou Forest!"
"Smooth as always." Ah Yin giggled in amusement. "However, you're right, Monster-Eyed Tree King. Plant-type spirit beasts who can reach 100,000 years old are indeed rare."
"That's why Xiao Yuan gave you a chance to be my Spirit Souls."
"Your strong origins shouldn't be wasted on mere spirit ring."
The Monster-Eyed Tree King couldn't help but glance at Han Yuan, finding the human surprisingly has some traits of the Blue Silver Emperor. "Well, I don't have any choice. Stull, I'm curious about something. If I'm not wrong, the male human you used to follow was a fool with a Clear Sky Hammer martial soul."
"I even witnessed your sacrifice at the border of Star Dou Forest, but now..."
Ah Yin shook her head and replied, "It's complicated to explain, but Xiao Yuan is my son."
"He is and always has been my light."
She then added, using a chilling tone, "As for the hammer guy. Oh, well, I will repay everything he did to me..."
The Monster-Eyed Tree King was amazed by the faint darkness and killing intent Ah Yin released because the Blue Silver Emperor was the emperor of the Blue Silver Clan and is known for her gentle, purity, and tenacious life force.
The current her is unlike anything the Monster-Eyed Tree King had ever seen.
'Has the Blue Silver Emperor's origins evolved?' The Monster-Eyed Tree King thought in disbelief.
Han Yuan rolled his eyes at the Monster-Eyed Tree King, "Enough talking about the past. Tree King, inform your clan members that you will leave the Star Dou Forest for a while."
"Then, we can start the Spirit Soul Transformation and Contract."
"Well... I understand." The Monster-Eyed Tree King's mouth twitched as this human really showed no respect.
The Monster-Eyed Tree King returned to the dark forest under the now hollow mountain. After ordering a few of its competent descendants to protect the Monster-Eyed Tree Clan, the Monster-Eyed Tree King grabs some spirit bones and returns to Han Yuan's side.
"These are?" Han Yuan looked down at the piles of dark purple head spirit bones, which possessed strong spiritual power. They are pure, too, having the bloodline of many elite Monster-Eyed Trees. All these spirit bones are over 10,000 years old.
"Small gifts," The Monster-Eyed Tree King said calmly. "I hope you don't bore a grudge against me and my clan."
"If possible... Please protect the main line of my clan after I become Blue Silver Emperor's Spirit Soul."
"Very well, that's what I can do." Han Yuan nodded casually.
Ah Yin giggled and added, "We used to be hostile to each other, but now the Blue Silver Cland Monster-Eyed Tree Clan can be considered an ally~!."
"..." The Monster-Eyed Tree King.
If your son weren't so monstrous, this wouldn't happen.
He literally came, smacked my face, and forced me to submit.
The Monster-Eyed Tree King's spiritual proficiency wasn't something one can scoff at. It could sense that Han Yuan's cultivation base wasn't even at Title Douluo Realm, but he possessed a power much more domineering than any Title Douluo the 150,000-year-old had ever seen.
On top of that, the Monster-Eyed Tree King also sensed a noble aura from Han Yuan's body, though he kept it hidden. This noble aura made the Tree King forget the thought of fighting a useless fight.
Han Yuan stored the spirit bones and spread his senses all over the Star Dou Forest before settling on the border between Star Dou Forest and the Star Luo Empire, rocky mountains and snowy land.
"Let's go!" Han Yuan carried Ah Yin, and the Monster-Eyed Tree King used its spiritual power to fly.
Once they arrived at the suitable spot, Han Yuan spread his Purple Silver Grass over the mountain and snowy land, creating an intrinsic barrier of spiritual power and lightning energy.
"Thousand-Eyed Realm!"
The Monster-Eyed Tree King narrowed its eyes, 'Isn't this the ability of the extinct ancient spirit beast, Thousand-Eyed Mulberry Tree? He has such spirit skills?'
Unfortunately for the Monster-Eyed Tree King, Han Yuan's spirit skills activation doesn't require him to summon his spirit rings due to the mastery of Thousand Eyes Art, so the whereabouts of Thousand-Eyed Mulberry Tree will remain a mystery indefinitely.
Then, Han Yuan used the True Spirituality Art and Secret of Souls to lock onto the Monster-Eyed Tree King. "Are you ready?"
The Monster-Eyed Tree King felt an unsettling sensation from Han Yuan's gaze but still responded positively, "Yes."
"Ah Yin." Han Yuan glanced at Ah Yin.
"Coming~!" Ah Yin trotted to Han Yuan's side with a smile.
Han Yuan then clasped his hand, mumbling language doesn't exist in this world. Archaic runes manifested by his spiritual power slowly come to the Monster-Eyed Tree King.
Besides feeling the read, the Monster-Eyed Tree King doesn't hide nor reject the archaic runes. Han Yuan's spiritual power has manipulated its essence, turning its body into a spiritual entity or energy lifeform.
However, it doesn't end there as Han Yuan used the Thousand Eyes Art to manipulate the Monster-Eyed Tree King's origins and essence and seal it into a pill-shaped object.
Under Han Yuan's instruction, Ah Yin meditated on the snowy ground while chanting the soul contract between herself and the Monster-Eyed Tree King. The contract wasn't entirely equal, as Han Yuan wanted Ah Yin to have dominion over the Monster-Eyed Tree King; however, he still granted the 150,000-year-old spirit beast a considerable amount of freedom.
Both Ah Yin and the Monster-Eyed Tree King accepted the soul contract that bound them. Han Yuan then transferred the origins and essence of the Monster-Eyed Tree King into Ah Yin's body, causing her seventh spirit ring to manifest slowly, displaying the image of the Dark Blue Silver Emperor against the backdrop of the Monster-Eyed Tree King.
A blue-silver crown—no, a tiara-shaped spirit bone made from the origins and essence of the Monster-Eyed Tree King—formed atop Ah Yin's blue-silver hair, exuding the aura of a dignified empress.
...
Suddenly, a blinding light illuminated the snowy ground as Ah Yin broke through to the Spirit Sage Realm, achieving an abnormal spirit ring configuration of black, black, black, black, black, red, and orange-gold. Her seventh spirit ring wasn't red as one might expect; instead, it was a reflection of the Monster-Eyed Tree King's status as a Great Spirit Beast with a noble bloodline and spiritual mastery that rivals that of 200,000-year-old spirit beasts.
Ah Yin's Dark Blue Silver Emperor also underwent a significant transformation as its devouring power swept over the region, absorbing all life energy. For the next fifteen minutes, her physical strength, spiritual power, and cultivation expanded rapidly, allowing her to reach level 78 swiftly.
...
Han Yuan watched this unfold and smiled. "As expected, the Dark Blue Silver Emperor was able to assimilate the Monster-Eyed Tree King's bloodline and obtain nearly ultimate Spiritual Attributes."
...
Ah Yin slowly opened her eyes, revealing dark-purple flames flickering within her pupils. The flames burned intensely but calmed upon her seeing Han Yuan again. She smiled brightly, "It's a success, Xiao Yuan!"
"Yes, it's a success." A spiritual manifestation appeared beside Ah Yin. It was a beautiful woman with long, cascading dark purple hair, dressed in a matching gown, and wearing a white blindfold marked with eyes resembling those of a monster.
Han Yuan narrowed his eyes. "Monster-Eyed Tree King, you're a female?"
The Monster-Eyed Tree King smiled. "The Monster-Eyed Tree Clan has no specific gender. I chose to take a female form because Ah Yin wished it that way."
"She can't stand any male beside her dear son."
Ah Yin shot the Monster-Eyed Tree King a glare as the Spirit Soul cleared her throat. "Well, that aside, I have given myself a name too."
"You can call me Zimei!"
"Uh, Zimei, got it." Han Yuan replied suspiciously. He sensed that there was some sort of agreement between Ah Yin and Zimei.
