#71 - Anna's third soul skill, undercurrent surges

After about five minutes, the Ironwood Treant's life force was completely drained. A purple soul power detached from its body, transforming into a bright purple soul ring that floated above the Ironwood Treant's corpse.

“Nana, it's ready. Go absorb the soul ring, okay?”

“Okay.”

Anna nodded, walked in front of the soul ring, and sat down cross-legged, releasing her soul power to add the soul ring to her Dark Jade Divine Grass spirit.

In terms of talent, Anna's talent is probably second only to Davis, who has consumed five immortal herbs. Even compared to Zhu Zhuqing, she is no less talented.

After two hours of absorption, she completely absorbed the soul ring, and her soul power level also increased again, reaching level thirty-three.

Anna opened her beautiful eyes and smiled, “Brother Davis, my soul power has reached level thirty-three!”

“Well done, Nana!” Davis rewarded the girl with a head pat, and then asked with a smile, “Nana, what is your third soul skill?”

“Brother, my third soul skill is called Resilience!” As soon as she finished speaking, her third soul ring suddenly flashed a purple light. Immediately afterward, the dark black Dark Jade Divine Grass shot out, tightly缠繞缠绕around a large tree that required two people to hug.

Anna mobilized her soul power and pulled hard. With a boom, the tree fell to the ground! The Dark Jade Divine Grass, as thin as hair, looked like hair but was as sharp as a knife!

“After using the third soul skill, the hardness and toughness of the Dark Jade Divine Grass will double, and it will also have strong fire and ice resistance. Any fire or ice attribute attacks that hit my Dark Jade Divine Grass will have their power reduced by fifty percent!”

“This soul skill is very good!”

Davis's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Then, he reached out and touched the Dark Jade Divine Grass, discovering that even he had to use some force to tear the hair-thin Dark Jade Divine Grass apart.

If the Dark Jade Divine Grass were thicker, unless he used a soul skill, he would never be able to tear it apart.

“What's even more commendable is that this is a percentage amplification soul skill. Even when you become a Titled Douluo, you will still be able to use it.”

After a pause, Davis continued, “Nana, currently, all three of your soul skills are very practical. As for this third soul skill… Nana, have you ever thought about turning this Dark Jade Divine Grass into a weapon!”

Davis reminded Anna to develop derivative skills from her soul skills. In the original story, Tang San developed a derivative soul skill from the Blue Silver Grass's fourth soul skill, Blue Silver Cage: Blue Silver Spike Array, which could not only trap enemies but also had good lethality.

And the quality of Anna's Dark Jade Divine Grass is definitely not weaker than Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, probably second only to the Blue Silver Emperor. Since Little San could do it, she could definitely do it too.

“Turn the Dark Jade Divine Grass into a weapon?” Anna scratched her head and frowned, “Brother Davis, is that possible?”

“Haha, of course it's possible. You should have seen wooden knives or wooden shields, right? Your Dark Jade Divine Grass far surpasses wood in both hardness and toughness.

Moreover, compared to wood, your Dark Jade Divine Grass is lighter. Even ordinary people can easily pick it up.

You only need to control the Dark Jade Divine Grass to intertwine with each other to weave a wooden shield. Or, to make it simpler, you can put the Dark Jade Divine Grass on your body to form armor to protect yourself.

Even if you encounter a fire attribute soul master, you can still cope with it easily with the fire resistance of the Dark Jade Divine Grass. In your next cultivation, you can work towards this direction and try to develop a self-created soul skill.”

Anna nodded, “Brother Davis, I understand! I will work hard!”

She is a plant-type soul master, which is also a type of tool soul master. The physical fitness of tool soul masters is not as good as that of soul masters with beast spirits. If she can turn the Dark Jade Divine Grass into armor, she can better protect herself.

“Okay, now that everyone has obtained their soul rings, let's go back.”

Among the group, Davis had the final say. Naturally, everyone had no objections. They left the Star Dou Great Forest, took a carriage, and spent a week returning to Star Luo City, and then began their respective cultivation.

…

Star Luo Royal Alchemist Association. As thick smoke floated into the air from the chimney, an intoxicating medicinal fragrance wafted over.

After the members of the Breaking Clan moved to Star Luo City, in addition to the younger generation, most of the middle-aged people turned around and joined the Alchemist Association, refining various medicines beneficial to soul master cultivation, as well as various poisons that could kill people invisibly.

With the establishment of the Alchemist Association, the status of alchemists also rose. Now, within the Star Luo Empire, alchemists and blacksmiths have the same status as soul masters, which has attracted many famous doctors from the countryside to come to the Alchemist Association from thousands of miles away.

As long as one understands pharmacology and can pass the Alchemist Association's assessment, one can become a noble alchemist, on par with soul masters.

The members of the Breaking Clan benefited the most from the improvement of the alchemist's status. Now, more than half of the members in the Alchemist Association are from the Breaking Clan, and the president is the clan leader, Yang Wudi.

Across from the Alchemist Association, in a high-end restaurant, Yue Guan and Gui Mei were sitting in a private room, observing the every move of the Alchemist Association, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Yang Wudi.

Because this was a secret mission, both of them were very low-key. Not only did they wear human skin masks, but Yue Guan even dyed his hair black to prevent being recognized.

Unless they released their spirits, no one would be able to recognize them.

Yue Guan took a sip of red wine, shook his head helplessly, and sighed, “Alas! Old Ghost, it seems that if we want to assassinate Yang Wudi, we can only attack the Alchemist Association at night. We must leave quickly after killing him.”

These days, the two of them had been secretly observing Yang Wudi's every move. They originally wanted to wait for Yang Wudi to go home and assassinate him on the road, then leave triumphantly.

However, they underestimated Yang Wudi's obsession with alchemy. For ten days, a full ten days, Yang Wudi did not take a single step out of the Alchemist Association. He ate and slept in the association.

Yue Guan even wanted to learn from Dugu Bo and use poison to tamper with Yang Wudi's food, but he never expected that there would be an employee cafeteria in the Alchemist Association, and there would be dedicated alchemists responsible for testing the food every day.

Wanting to tamper with Yang Wudi's food under the surveillance of so many alchemists was almost impossible, and there were also many healing-type soul masters in the association who were specifically responsible for detoxification.

Under such circumstances, the only way to assassinate Yang Wudi was to forcefully attack the Alchemist Association, but Dai Poju protected Yang Wudi too well.

There were a full thousand well-equipped soldiers patrolling and guarding the Alchemist Association, and even dozens of black-clothed death warriors strapped with explosives, not to mention that Yang Wudi himself had the strength comparable to a Soul Douluo.

Faced with such a lineup, it was almost impossible to successfully assassinate Yang Wudi.
