After searching for a while, Tang San still hadn't found the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass of the ten-thousand-year level. He stopped and pondered for a moment, then released the Blue Silver Emperor and activated the Endless Grass Field.

In the original work, the ten-thousand-year-level Blue Silver Emperor could communicate with the protagonist and possess intelligence not inferior to that of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. Does this indicate that plant-type soul beasts, although unable to move before reaching the ten-thousand-year level, can possess the intelligence that ordinary soul beasts can only achieve after reaching a hundred thousand years?

If the Blue Silver Grass is like this, then perhaps the Wind Chime Grass is too.

Under the spreading influence of the Blue Silver Emperor, Tang San's spirit was able to connect with the Blue Silver Emperor, sensing all the Wind Chime Grass present. Eventually, he discovered a dried-up Wind Chime Grass with an extremely condensed vitality.

That was the ten-thousand-year-level Nine Lives Resurrection Grass!

Tang San opened his eyes and used the Blue Silver Grass to pull it over, infusing it with life force.

Suddenly, the withered Wind Chime Grass began to grow again. Its stiff, curled branches and leaves softened and stretched out, revealing jade-like leaves. In its center, there was even a white fruit, soft to the touch.

"Respected Plant Sovereign, hello."

When Tang San touched it, a voice like that of a young girl sounded in his mind, evidently the ten-thousand-year-level Nine Lives Resurrection Grass was greeting him.

"Third Brother, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Wu saw Tang San dazed and became curious.

"It's nothing, just confirming a speculation. It means that when plant-type soul beasts reach ten thousand years of cultivation, they possess the intelligence of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, just unable to speak." Tang San explained with a smile. "But even if you can't understand what this Nine Lives Resurrection Grass is saying, I can understand it clearly only by relying on the Blue Silver Emperor."

"Ten thousand years and they already have intelligence comparable to humans?" Xiao Wu was stunned, starting to ponder something, but she herself had no regrets about plant-type soul beasts, after all, plant-type soul beasts were once her food.

"Nine Lives Resurrection Grass, I need your soul ring, I'm sorry." Tang San conveyed his thoughts, regardless of right or wrong, he just needed it to break through the realm, nothing more.

"It's my honor to be sacrificed to the Blue Silver Emperor, but can you promise to plant my seeds in the future?" Nine Lives Resurrection Grass put forward its condition. "I don't want to live in this environment anymore, I hope to grow in fertile soil."

"Okay, I promise." Tang San conveyed this message.

Suddenly, the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass floated up, its emerald green branches and leaves began to wither, all the vitality condensed into a black seed and a pitch-black soul ring.

"Is this sacrifice?!"

Xiao Wu was shocked, unable to imagine that ten-thousand-year-level plant-type soul beasts could be sacrificed... Compared to animal-type soul beasts, plant-type soul beasts couldn't move before ten thousand years, but they had advantages that animal-type soul beasts didn't have before ten thousand years, that is, they possessed intelligence comparable to humans at the ten-thousand-year level and could master the method of sacrifice.

This was truly extraordinary!

Tang San sat cross-legged, absorbing the soul ring of the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass. In less than ten minutes, he had absorbed it completely.

Without the mental interference of the Nine Lives Resurrection Grass, his own body was strong, and the compatibility of the soul ring with the Blue Silver Emperor was extremely high. It would be difficult for Tang San to fail in absorbing it.

"Third Brother, what soul skill did you get?" Xiao Wu asked eagerly.

"Nine Lives Resurrection." Tang San named his fourth soul skill. "It's a soul skill that can allow me to be reborn. Once activated, it can make me reborn after death, but I have to re-cultivate my soul power, after all, it's equivalent to a new life."

"Can it only be used on yourself?" Xiao Wu asked anxiously.

"No, others can use it too, but it can only be used on others after they die." Tang San said, "With the pearl in the center of my Blue Silver Emperor now, I can store the souls of others. Even if the person is already dead, as long as the soul information still exists and there is flesh and blood, I can use the first soul skill, Endless Restoration, to provide a huge amount of energy and perfectly resurrect them. However, the stronger the strength before death, the longer the time needed."

"If it's a Titled Douluo, I need to maintain the soul skill for about three years without eating or drinking."

"Like the first soul skill and the third soul skill, it's still an efficiency problem."

This soul skill is truly heaven-defying!

But it's not something Tang San can currently use. He still can't achieve Bigu, and the power of the earth and the radiance of the sun and moon cannot directly become the source of his personal life energy.

But there was still a hint of excited tears in Xiao Wu's eyes.

Efficiency?

When San Ge's soul power increases in the future, the efficiency will improve.

Hope for Mom's resurrection...

It's there.

All that's left is for San Ge's cultivation to improve, and to find her mom's soul and bone.

"Xiao Wu, why are you crying?"

Guang Ling noticed Xiao Wu's expression and, not knowing that she was a hundred-thousand-year soul beast in human form, handed her a handkerchief. "Did you think of something sad?"

"Thank you." Xiao Wu didn't say much, just took the handkerchief and wiped her tears.

Seeing this, Guang Ling didn't ask further, knowing that Xiao Wu might be hoping for San Ge to help resurrect some loved one in the future.

To be honest, she wanted that too.

It's just that her dad's bones are probably all gone, with no chance of resurrection...

One month later.

A man and two women arrived at Tian Dou City.

Before entering Tian Dou City, the three of them found that the road leading to Tian Dou City became extremely broad. The thick blue bricks, in Tang San's spiritual perception, were buried at least a meter underground.

Looking at the city wall of Tian Dou City, its height was about a hundred meters, much more spectacular than the walls of Nuoding City.

"Is this Tian Dou City? It's so big!"

Guang Ling followed Tang San and Xiao Wu on their soul hunting journey and had seen cities along the way, but none had such magnificent city walls.

On the gate of the city were three large characters: "Tian Dou City," as if they were cast in gold, truly magnificent.

As the three entered the city, they saw a wide street, with stalls on both sides selling various goods. There were also passages on both sides, leading in all directions.

Tang San could already imagine the prosperity of this city.

"San Ge, look, there are so many daily life soul devices here." Guang Ling's attention was on various daily life soul devices, those signs emitting a soft light, attracting people's attention.

"This is Tian Dou City, the capital of the Tian Dou Empire, one of the most prosperous cities on the entire continent. Naturally, there are many daily life soul devices." Tang San was also slightly stunned by the prosperity here, understanding firsthand how vast the gap between rich and poor could be, but he still pretended to be calm, trying hard to keep his tone even.

"It's been a long time, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guang Ling."

Just then, a familiar voice came. With a tall figure and long legs not inferior to Xiao Wu's, Huo Wu waved at the three of them and ran over. "I received your letter and calculated the time. I've been hanging around the east gate of Tian Dou lately... Oh no, waiting. Sure enough, I met you."

"Come, let me take you around Tian Dou City."

Tang San smiled, "Thank you, Miss Huo Wu."

"No need to be so polite, just call me Xiao Wu... well, I'm named the same as your younger sister, so call me Huo Wu, or Sister Huo Wu is fine." Huo Wu thought for a moment, then changed her mind, "It's just a name, nothing serious."

"Okay, Huo Wu." Tang San said.

"I'm gone, you don't even call me Sister anymore, you've grown up, sister is very sad." Huo Wu put on a self-pitying expression, crying with a sad face, "Sister is very sad."

Tang San: "······"
