Ming Tian remained calm, appearing very confident. The Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor in front of him emitted an arrogant shriek, causing nearby creatures to scatter. Only they remained in this trench.
"Rumble!!!!"
The crimson scaled vines attached to the trench walls all pulled up, and in an instant, several Sea Demon Vines surged towards Ming Tian.
The Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor had taken the initiative, showing no courtesy to Ming Tian.
"Blue Silver Soul Devouring Abyss!"
Ming Tian spoke softly, his left arm shining. A light blue abyss emerged behind him, extending outwards and absorbing the weak energy in the seabed.
Instantly, Ming Tian felt his soul power peak. As the red, scaled vines, like sharp spears, thrust towards him, his body transformed into dark blue silver grass. The dark blue silver grass grew rapidly, swaying in the seawater, and the aura it emitted was no less than that of the Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine. The dark blue silver vines clashed with the crimson vines, pushing them aside.
Seeing Ming Tian's completely Blue Silver Grass form, both the Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor and Herdecar's faces displayed shock.
Especially the Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor. It felt a trace of pressure from a plant-type superior, something the Dark Blue Silver Emperor within Ming Tian gave it. A 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor, among the 100,000-year plant-type Soul Beasts, had a bloodline of the immortal level. It was not something the Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor, with its Emperor level bloodline and race, could provoke.
"Soul Beast bloodline?! You are not a pure human?!"
The Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine immediately understood what was happening and cried out sharply.
"I suppose so. My mother is a 100,000-year-old Dark Blue Silver Emperor. I should be considered half-human, half-beast?"
"I see. You are also a child of a Soul Beast. I thought you were a detestable, pure human."
"Because of this, I won't harbor too much malice towards you. Children of Soul Beasts, we treat them very friendly."
The Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine's tone clearly softened. Ming Tian was overjoyed, realizing this might work. It seemed revealing his Soul Beast bloodline and 100,000-year soul bone skill was the right move. He quickly expressed his gratitude:
"Thank you!"
"But don't get too excited. Let me see just how powerful the immortal emperor of the plant-type, the Blue Silver Emperor, is!"
"Myriad Vines Bite!"
The Sea Demon Vines that had been pushed away attacked again. The ends of each Sea Demon Vine transformed into mouths with fangs, seemingly capable of biting and crushing anything they clamped onto. Like a group of eyeless, red-scaled snakes, with only mouths.
"Overlord Spear Thrust!!!"
Ming Tian swung his fully Blue Silver-transformed body, and each Blue Silver Grass became sharp, forming a spearhead at the end, colliding with the biting Sea Demon Vine mouths.
The sharp Blue Silver Overlord Spear pierced into the biting mouths, but didn't split them in two. Instead, it was bitten, as if those dancing vines wanted to break the Blue Silver Overlord Spear!
"Haha, although your 100,000-year soul bone skill is formidable, this is also a 100,000-year racial skill of mine, and I am attacking through my main body. You are transforming your body into Blue Silver, and these vines are derived from skills, not your original cultivation body, so it lacks some finesse."
The Sea Demon Vine Emperor laughed, and his words didn't feel distant anymore, but rather, more intimate. Like an elder guiding a junior, this was also because Ming Tian was a child of a Soul Beast.
"Thanks for the guidance. Entangle!"
The Blue Silver Overlord Spear that was bitten was formed by his body. Ming Tian naturally felt the pain. He dared not clash head-on anymore. He retracted his Blue Silver Overlord Spear, and two dark blue silver grasses wrapped around a Sea Demon Vine, entangling the mouth it had transformed into, both above and below. Only then did he resolve the crisis.
"In terms of control, it's not just human control-type Soul Masters who can use it. As Soul Beasts, some Soul Beasts' control is far stronger than that of human Soul Masters. Next is my 100,000-year domain. Every 100,000-year Soul Beast has their own domain. My domain is the Dark Sea Forest!"
As the Sea Demon Vine Emperor finished speaking, countless crimson, straight, and thick Sea Demon Vines surged from the seabed's soil. These Sea Demon Vines even had branches, growing upwards densely. The place where Ming Tian was standing quickly gained a dark red Sea Demon Vine forest!
"Dark Sea Forest, domain effect: plant-type Soul Beast and Soul Master skills are reduced by half. This forest can be controlled by me at will. Unless you destroy this forest, but this forest can also grow and expand infinitely. What do you think?"
The Sea Demon Vine Emperor's tone even had a hint of boasting and pride, as if waiting for Ming Tian to praise it.
"Impressive! But I am not a plant-type Soul Master!"
Ming Tian smiled. A blue Thunder Horn Wolf head soul mark bloomed at his feet. Two yellow and one purple soul rings appeared. The third purple soul ring shone brightly, and blue lightning flashed around Ming Tian, spreading and striking the surrounding Sea Demon Vines.
Thunder Horn Wolf Martial Soul, third thousand-year soul skill, Nether Thunder Prison Array!
Don't forget this is in seawater! Water conducts electricity! The weak current in the water could be negligible, but it had some effect on these Sea Demon Vines.
The Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor was also stunned, subconsciously calling out:
"Your Martial Soul is the Thunder Horn Wolf?"
"Even so, it's not enough. If you reach the Title Douluo level, your lightning would still affect my Dark Sea Forest, but you are only a Soul Elder. This skill won't have much effect."
"Is that so? But I don't just have the Thunder Horn Wolf Martial Soul, you know."
Ming Tian smiled. A white crab soul mark released on his left side, and his two hands turned into two giant crab claws. A yellow soul ring shone, and wherever the crab claws touched, ice formed.
After doing this, a red dog head soul mark lit up on Ming Tian's right side, with three yellow soul rings shining. The single yellow soul ring disappeared, and countless red dog claws clawed towards the frozen areas, breaking the frozen areas and severing a Sea Demon Vine.
You must know that this was released by a 100,000-year Soul Beast's body, and the strength should be equivalent to a human Title Douluo level's body, but it was still severed by Ming Tian's giant crab claws and dog claws working together.
But this was also Ming Tian's limit.
"Multiple Martial Souls?"
The Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine gave a wry smile.
"No, it's Martial Soul Devour. I won't hide it from you; I can devour the Martial Souls of Soul Beasts and human Soul Masters I kill and use them for myself."
As soon as this was said, the Ghost Horn Sea Demon Vine Emperor was silent, and the Dark Sea Forest domain was withdrawn. Countless red vines retracted, and the huge body moved. In the next moment, the formerly massive Sea Demon Vine Emperor transformed into a human form, looking like a forty-to-fifty-year-old man in a black robe, with thorny Sea Demon Vines wrapped around his shoulders.
"You win. You've successfully moved me. Infinite Devour, infinite Martial Souls, right? It should be the ability your mother gave you, right? With such an ability, who will be your opponent once you grow up? The important thing is that, with this ability, you are also a child of a Soul Beast! This is a blessing for our Soul Beast lineage!"
The Sea Demon Vine Emperor smiled and patted Ming Tian on the shoulder.
Ming Tian was overjoyed and said:
"So, you agree?!"
Also happy were Sea Princess and Yan Qingwan.
"I agree. I see the future of our Soul Beasts in you. 100,000-year Soul Beasts can transform into human form freely for a while, and I will follow you like this."
"Where to next?"
The Sea Demon Vine Emperor asked Sea Princess.
"Frozen Lake, the Eight-Winged Dragon Whale's territory."
