Douro Continent

Chapter 481 Mother's Legacy, Blue Silver Emperor's Right Leg Bone (Part 2)

The violent cracking sound of bones echoed through the cave, but surprisingly, Tang San felt no pain throughout the entire process. The cool blue energy was acting directly on his meridians.

Tang San was astonished to see that all his meridians had turned a faint blue. The space for internal energy flowing within his meridians had increased exponentially.

The stream gradually transformed into the Yangtze River, but its veins did not thin out at all; instead, they became stronger and more resilient.

If the two years of tempering under the waterfall honed Tang San's muscles and bones, allowing him to fully absorb the effects of the two immortal herbs, the 'Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass' and the 'Blazing Apricot Blossom,' then this 100,000-year-old blue silver right leg bone has pushed Tang San's meridians to their limit. The absolutely neutral energy perfectly binds the effects of the two immortal herbs together.

A slight cracking sound came from his meridians, but there was still no pain. However, Tang San could clearly see that the Du Meridian, which had been hindering his progress, was now completely open.

All eight extraordinary meridians were connected, linking the bridge between heaven and earth. In an instant, the internal energy of the Mysterious Heaven Skill surged forth like a raging torrent.

It circulated almost frantically within Tang San's body. His internal energy continuously increased. Each fluctuation caused Tang San's body to tremble violently.

Gradually, Tang San became lost in the feeling of complete comfort, his spiritual power surging within him.

He had lost all awareness of his surroundings. The blue energy spreading around his right leg had completely merged into his body; that cool and gentle aura was the great love of a mother, constantly comforting her child.

Tang San fell asleep, a sleep more peaceful and comfortable than ever before, because he was sleeping soundly in his mother's arms. A mother's embrace is the warmest thing in the world, irreplaceable by anything else.

He was sleeping very soundly. There was no trace of hunchback on his face, only a sweet smile.

She slept for three whole days.

Three days later, Tang San slowly awoke to a strange coolness in his right leg. Opening his eyes, the first thing he saw was his father sitting there, gently stroking the Blue Silver Emperor.

The Blue Silver Emperor, which was the mother's original form, has been transplanted from the ground by the father and planted in a stone flowerpot.

"You're awake?" Tang Hao smiled at his son. All his worries had been resolved, and he no longer needed to put on his previous serious demeanor.

"Dad." When Tang San called out these two words, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. When he looked down, he found that there was a thin layer of paste on his skin, which was light gray in color.

"Let's go. This time, you've been completely transformed. I've carefully examined your bones and meridians. From a purely physical standpoint, you're definitely among the top three in the entire Douluo Continent. If you still can't withstand the future pressure of twin martial souls, then I really don't understand how Bibi Dong managed to do it. Focus on your cultivation. Once your Blue Silver Emperor reaches the ninth ring, boldly add spirit rings to the Clear Sky Hammer. As long as you don't feel anything unusual in your body, I think you should be able to continue cultivating."

The father and son emerged from the waterfall, where Tang San washed himself clean. As he and his father departed together, he clearly felt a change in his body.

He seemed to have lost all weight; whenever he exerted force with his right leg, he felt as if he could fly. The skill granted to him by his blue-silver right leg bone was flight—flight with minimal soul power consumption. Only a 100,000-year-old soul bone could produce such a supreme soul skill.

Ten days later, they arrived at Sunset Forest, where Dugu Bo had been, and at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.

Feeling the terrifying energy fluctuations within the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, looking at the lush vegetation surrounding the small lake, and sensing the excitement emanating from the Blue Silver Emperor in his arms, Tang Hao knew he had come to the right place.

Tang San said seriously, "Father, this place is not suitable for any other non-plant creatures to live in. That's why no soul beast dares to offend us here. I've eaten two immortal herbs and won't be affected by them. But if you stay here for a long time, it might not be good for your health."

Tang Hao waved his hand, "As long as your mother is well, I don't care about myself."

Tang San thought for a moment and said, "That won't do. Our whole family has finally been able to be together, and Mom has hope of recovery. How can you have another accident?" Forcing himself not to show his sadness because of his father's broken body, Tang San's mind raced and he had already made a plan.

"It should be fine for a short time. Let's let Mom rest here first."

Along the way, Tang San wanted to help his father carry the Blue Silver Grass, but Tang Hao refused. Even though he only had one leg and one arm, he insisted on carrying his wife himself.

But things are different now. Tang Hao is really not good at planting herbs. He carefully handed the Blue Silver Emperor that his wife had transformed into to his son and instructed him, "Little San, don't force yourself. It doesn't matter if your mother can't recover faster. Just don't let her not adapt to the environment here harm her."

Tang San nodded. He cared about this even more than Tang Hao. That was his mother! The only relative in both worlds who made him feel maternal love—how could he not be careful?

Tang San closed his eyes and slowly released his spiritual power, which soon permeated the entire area around the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. He was searching for the most suitable place for the Blue Silver Emperor to grow.

The Blue Silver Emperor is a neutral plant, so it must be planted on the bank where the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Wells meet. However, Tang San didn't want any errors, so he relied on his spiritual power to find the most balanced point.

Soon, his mental energy locked onto the target he was looking for. Tang San gently squatted down, carefully used his palm to dig away the soil, and then took the Blue Silver Emperor out of its original flowerpot and planted it on the balance point.

Throughout the process, Tang San carefully sensed every change in the surrounding energy, concentrating all his mental power within this small one-square-meter area. If anything were even slightly amiss, he would immediately remove the Blue Silver Emperor from that area.

To his delight, the Blue Silver Emperor seemed to really like the atmosphere here. Through his spiritual senses and the unique nature of the Blue Silver Domain, Tang San quickly discovered that the Blue Silver Emperor had begun to take root here.

Biting his right middle finger, Tang San dripped a drop of his blood onto the Blue Silver Emperor's blade of grass. He also possessed the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, and his own Blue Silver Emperor bloodline had completely fused with the two immortal herbs, the 'Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass' and the 'Blazing Apricot Blossom.' Undoubtedly, this was the best tonic for the Blue Silver Emperor before him.

Sure enough, as the blood dripped, the Blue Silver Emperor in front of them immediately emitted a layer of shimmering blue light, and the grass grew rapidly—even faster than when they first came into contact with Tang San's Blue Silver Domain.

Tang Hao did not stop his son's actions. He was overjoyed to see his wife's Blue Silver Emperor growing rapidly.

Just as Tang San was about to squeeze out some more blood to nourish the Blue Silver Emperor, a resolute emotional fluctuation came from the Blue Silver Emperor.

Sensing this clear spiritual fluctuation, Tang San's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stopped what he was doing. He knew his mother was blaming him, and if he released more blood to nourish the Blue Silver Emperor, his mother would likely not only refuse to absorb it but also strongly reject it.

How could a mother not feel sorry for her son?

"Dad, it should be fine now. This is the best place for Mother to grow up. I know you don't want to leave her side for even a moment. I just thought about it and I have a solution. I'm going to refine a kind of pill for you. After taking this pill, you should be able to get rid of the influence of this place's energy. Of course, you should continue to take the Dragon Fungus Leaves I gave you to strengthen your body and nourish your vital energy."

Tang Hao was in high spirits as he watched his wife grow rapidly, and laughed, "Don't underestimate your old man. Although I extracted two soul bones from my body, I also obtained four other soul bones during my travels. If I didn't have all the soul bones, how could I possibly fight against the Spirit Hall? Although I'm only level 70 now, even a Title Douluo like Dugu Bo wouldn't stand a chance against me."

Unconsciously, Haotian Douluo's domineering aura was released once again. Seeing his father's happy expression, Tang San was naturally in a great mood as well. Without saying anything more, he walked to the Blazing Yang Spring, took out his cauldron and tools for refining pills, and immediately began to devote himself to the process of refining medicine.

His magic bag contained an abundance of medicinal herbs. Of course, much of his so-called alchemy was just for show, meant to impress his father.

As night fell, Tang San continued refining medicine, while Tang Hao sat quietly cultivating in front of the Blue Silver Emperor.

Although his strength could not be restored, just as Tang San said, even if there was only a sliver of a chance for his wife to be resurrected, he would wait. Moreover, here at the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, Tang Hao's hopes had increased significantly.

Tang San's spiritual power had been secretly observing his father. Sensing that his father had entered a meditative state, he silently retrieved a dagger from his Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon.

He was indeed refining medicine, but it wasn't to help Tang Hao avoid the effects of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well; it was merely a medicine to strengthen his foundation and replenish his vital energy. He had been waiting for this very opportunity.

To allow the father to stay here with the mother and adapt to the climate, a special medicinal ingredient is needed.
