Son of the Demon King! Great harvest!

Star Dou Great Forest.

"Core Circle!"

Because the forest is vast, it is divided into several zones from the outer to the inner areas: the Edge Zone, Periphery Circle, Mixed Zone, Core Circle, and the Dangerous Zone.

Different zones house soul beasts of different ages: less than a hundred years, hundreds to thousands of years, and even ten thousand years. However, upon entering the Core Circle, you'll find only powerful soul beasts that are over 30,000 years old.

At the very center of the Core Circle lies the Lake of Life, the territory of the Great Ming Tianqing Bull Python and the Second Ming Tai Titan Ape.

However, they can be considered mere gatekeepers.

The Lake of Life is also a counterfeit product.

Deep underground, there are several ferocious beasts over 200,000 years old!

These beasts absorb the true Lake of Life's essence and devour the soul power emitted by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, enabling them to advance rapidly in their cultivation.

Although they are beasts of hundreds of thousands of years, their actual lifespans may be only one-tenth of that.

The place they inhabit is truly a Dangerous Zone!

Even the outer Core Circle is extremely perilous.

Originally, Ye Yang was on the edge of the Mixed Zone, close to the Core Circle, feeling frightened every day.

But now, he threw caution to the wind, concentrating almost all his roots and advancing toward the Core Zone!

Although it was only a few hundred meters, Ye Yang could feel that upon entering this area, the nutrients in the soil were much richer. The soul power here was almost double that of the Mixed Zone outside.

A demon tree with magical eyes was rooted at the edge of the Core Zone!

"With its mere hundred-year cultivation, it dares to be so arrogant here. It shouldn't be too dangerous," Ye Yang thought to himself.

He may be bold, but he's not foolish enough to seek death.

The roots of the demon tree in the underground immediately sensed Ye Yang's intrusion.

Instantly, hundreds of eyes opened on the tree.

The age of a demon tree is determined by the number of eyes it has: one eye for each year.

Of course, after a thousand years, even if the trunk becomes larger, it cannot accommodate so many eyes.

So, every thousand years, a new ring of pupils appears in its eyes.

Once it reaches ten rings, the demon tree becomes a ten-thousand-year soul beast.

Its eyes transform to resemble those of animals, but even more eerie and terrifying.

Ye Yang's spiritual power was formidable, having experienced two lives, which made his soul surpass ordinary people.

The spiritual power of plant-type soul beasts is far lower than that of animal-type soul beasts, and animal-type soul beasts are inferior to humans.

So, Ye Yang's spiritual power is his trump card!

He attached his spiritual power to his roots, enabling him to "see" the situation of the hundred-year demon tree clearly.

The plant soul beast was nearly 50 meters tall, thick as a water barrel, with many roots hanging down from its branches.

Some roots had hooks, some had sharp tips, and some were soft and long like whips.

On the roots, there were patches of special scales.

In the gaps of these scales, there were traces of blood.

Even the roots in the soil were the same.

It was evident that it had devoured many animal-type soul beasts and even humans!

They were faster than Ye Yang and lunged at him!

"Eat! Eat! Eat!"

A faint divine thought filled with joy was sensed by Ye Yang.

Damn! A hundred-year plant-type soul beast possesses such strong intelligence and spiritual power?!

Ye Yang felt something was amiss!

However, he didn't have time to think much or leave.

In the blink of an eye, the roots of both sides clashed like tens or hundreds of armies colliding underground!

Each of Ye Yang's root armies was composed of three thousand root soldiers.

The dark devouring instinct of the Blue Silver Grass had been fully developed by Ye Yang.

Even without any energy points or system assistance at the moment, Ye Yang's devouring ability remained powerful.

Many small trees were no match for him.

However, the opponent was a hundred-year Demon Eye Magic Tree!

Moreover, it dared to root itself in the Core Circle of the Star Dou Forest!

Boom!

A peculiar buzzing sound, the hundreds of roots from both sides instantly intertwined!

The roots of the Demon Eye Magic Tree were several times larger than Ye Yang's, and they were thicker and had more attached fine roots.

Ye Yang was essentially surrounded by enemies ten times stronger than himself!

Moreover, the special scales on the roots of the Demon Eye Magic Tree opened, revealing terrifying mouths!

They possessed formidable devouring abilities!

In an instant, many of Ye Yang's roots, even the main root, were bitten off and devoured!

However, Ye Yang didn't retreat; he fought back!

He was like a mad hunting dog, fierce and unafraid of death, fighting against a male lion!

At the very beginning, Ye Yang was seriously injured.

After all, he was just the weakest Blue Silver Grass with an age of only 72 years.

The opponent was a hundred-year Demon Eye Magic Tree.

In terms of cultivation and roots, it surpassed Ye Yang.

[Ding! Absorbed the juice of the hundred-year Demon Eye Magic Tree, refining Evolution Points 0.1+0.2+0.2+...] [Ding! Absorbed the soul power of the hundred-year Demon Eye Magic Tree, refining Soul Power Points 0.01+0.02+0.01+...] [Ding! Absorbed the spiritual power of the hundred-year Demon Eye Magic Tree, refining Spiritual Value 0.001+0.002+0.003+...]

However, Ye Yang's desperate counterattack immediately caused the system's voice to sound.

Moreover, it was an unprecedented continuous stream!

Evolution Points, Soul Power Points, and Spiritual Values, all three types of energy sounded at the same time!

It was like a torrential rain hitting thin iron sheets, constantly making tinkling sounds.

However, the three types of energy had significant differences.

The Soul Power was very scarce, and the Spiritual Values were even more pitiful.

Jittery~

Ye Yang's counterattack caused the Demon Eye Magic Tree to emit a kind of angry and painful spiritual wail.

It became even more frenzied in devouring Ye Yang, wanting to quickly kill this prey that dared to fight back and offend it!

However, Ye Yang tasted success and became even more determined to fight.

He used his powerful spirit to impact the magic tree's roots, slowing down its speed.

He continuously dodged its attacks, avoiding its sharpness, and constantly ambushed the demon eye magic tree's roots.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 1 evolution point, do you want to use it?]

The evolution points quickly accumulated to 1 point.

"Use it!"

Even if it's just 1 evolution point, Ye Yang didn't hesitate to use it.

[Ding! Using 1 evolution point, congratulations, host, the roots have evolved to level 1, distance to level 2, 2 evolution points needed]

As soon as he used it, with the sound of the system prompt, Ye Yang felt that he had become even stronger from the roots.

The roots that were devoured by the Demon Eye Magic Tree grew back.

Moreover, his endurance, flexibility, strength, hardness, and other aspects became stronger than before.

According to the system's plan, reaching level 1 requires 1 evolution point.

Level 2 needs 2 points, level 3 needs 3 points, and so on.

When he reaches level 80, there will be a significant transformation, and he will become the Blue Silver King!

If he were to follow the normal cultivation path, his soul power would have to reach 80,000 years, equivalent to a human's level 80 Soul Douluo, to become the Blue Silver King.

However, by absorbing powerful bloodlines with the system's help, it can be converted into evolution points, rapidly improving the roots' bloodline!

Once the roots' bloodline reaches level 100, it will transform into the Blue Silver Emperor!

Ye Yang calculated in his mind:

"To become an 80-level Blue Silver King, I need 3,240 evolution points."

"To become the Blue Silver Emperor, I need 5,050 points!"

"How many evolution points can this Demon Eye Magic Tree's bloodline give me?"

With these thoughts, Ye Yang's devouring efficiency increased continuously.

In addition, there's an increase in soul power, but it's secondary.

The spiritual value is even less helpful to Ye Yang.

However, losing spiritual value causes great damage to the Demon Eye Magic Tree!

Its movements became slower and slower.

Ye Yang was completely immersed in the atmosphere of pain and pleasure, forgetting about time.

He didn't know how long had passed when a different system sound rang out:

[Ding! Congratulations, host, the roots' bloodline has been raised to level 10, reward: 100 points]

"Hahaha, great! Strengthen my devouring ability!"

Ye Yang was overjoyed; the time has come!

After the roots were raised and strengthened with points, Ye Yang's devouring ability immediately overwhelmed the Demon Eye Magic Tree!

Its roots were devoured by Ye Yang like fragile noodles.

The sap, soul power, and spiritual power, which were similar to human blood, were continuously depleted.

The Demon Eye Magic Tree finally became afraid.

It retracted its roots, trying to escape.

But how could Ye Yang let it go?

He chased after it, devouring it.

However, the 100 points spent on strengthening the devouring ability were quickly used up.

The Demon Eye Magic Tree, seeing Ye Yang's devouring power decrease, thought that he had exhausted his strength.

It was delighted and immediately mobilized more roots, trying to kill Ye Yang.

Just when Ye Yang thought he was about to exchange injuries again, the system's voice sounded again:

[Ding! Congratulations, host, soul power has broken through to 100 years, reward: 1000 points]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, accumulated spiritual value reaches 1 point, accumulated spiritual power 50.9, entered the Spirit Connection realm, reward: 500 points]

Two system sounds rang out in succession.

As with the bloodline's roots' increase, the rewards for improving soul power and spiritual power are also ten times the points.

"Oh, f***! So sleepy, and they give me a pillow!"

"200 points, strengthen my devouring!"

Ye Yang was ecstatic, leaving 1300 points and only using 200 points to boost his devouring.

In an instant, his devouring power became incredibly strong.

His leaves changed from blue-silver to blue-black, making the dark attribute even more powerful.

When he devours and refines a target, he can only convert one-tenth of the soul power.

But by consuming points to strengthen the devouring ability, he can increase the conversion rate by three times!

So, this seemingly insignificant Demon Eye Magic Tree with a hundred years of soul power unexpectedly provided Ye Yang with 28 years of soul power!

His original 72 years of soul power instantly increased by 28 years, making him a hundred-year Blue Silver Grass!

With the 200-point boost to devouring, the Demon Eye Magic Tree was once again overwhelmed by Ye Yang.

as Yang continued to grow stronger, while the Demon Eye Magic Tree continued to weaken.

With this continuous change, the gap between the two sides grew larger and larger.

As time passed, the Demon Eye Magic Tree not only lost any desire to resist but even attempting to escape was futile.

As a hundred-year soul beast, it naturally possessed soul skills.

However, among the three major soul skills - Countless Branches, Corrosive Venom, and Tree Eye Paralysis - both were designed to deal with ground enemies.

Corrosive Venom could also be released through the roots.

But under Ye Yang's terrifying devouring power, it had no fear of the venom whatsoever.

Plants naturally have a higher resistance to toxins.

Moreover, after a brief consideration, Ye Yang decided not to spend precious points to replicate any of these three skills.

He didn't need them.

Directly sucking the Demon Eye Magic Tree dry was the most cost-effective method!

"Spare... me... Son... of... the... Demon... King..."

Suddenly, the Demon Eye Magic Tree concentrated almost all of its remaining spiritual power and sent a mental wave towards Ye Yang.

This time, Ye Yang finally understood its intention and identity.

"Oh, f***! This guy is the son of the Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts!?"
