After listening to her son Tang San's ambitious ideas for custom soul skills—Blue Silver Armor, Thousand-Hand Guanyin, and Tree Realm—Ah Yin was utterly confused.
She wondered how these grand concepts related to the actual nature of Blue Silver Grass.
Typically, soul masters' custom skills derive from their martial soul's traits. For Blue Silver Grass, suitable soul skills would be binding or healing abilities.
But making armor from grass? Or summoning a towering Guanyin statue with devastating power? Or manipulating terrain into lush forests? These went far beyond their capabilities.
Ah Yin, as the original Blue Silver Emperor, explained: despite being the ruler of Blue Silver Grass, at heart it's still a plant. Such grand manipulations vastly exceed its limits.
She gently told Tang San not to imagine too wildly. Like trying to carve a mirror from a brick—it's simply not the right material.
Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor martial soul could never support feats like conjuring massive trees or fierce armor.
Tang San was reluctant, citing that Teacher Tang Chuan (Yun Chuan) could do such extraordinary things with Blue Silver Grass.
Ah Yin was taken aback but understood, as she had heard about Yun Chuan from her husband.
She revealed: they were fundamentally different. Yun Chuan's soul was far beyond normal Blue Silver Grass—it had transcended to a Plant Sovereign level.
She suspected Yun Chuan's martial soul had benefitted from a beneficial mutation upon awakening, making it a true divine-level soul!
If Tang San was Blue Silver Emperor, Yun Chuan was Blue Silver God—the true sovereign of plants.
After hearing this, Ah Yin advised Tang San to focus on cultivating soul power first, not obsessing over self-invented skills that were time-consuming and uncertain.
Most soul skills are tied to the type of the soul and the soul rings absorbed; one cannot simply create any skill wished.
Reluctantly, Tang San agreed to set aside his obsession.
Yet deep inside, he remained dissatisfied and obsessed with comparing himself to Yun Chuan, wondering why he couldn't match his feats despite the supposedly superior Blue Silver Emperor status.
He pondered their many similarities—both possessing twin martial souls of Blue Silver Grass and a hammer, with similar names.
Tang San almost suspected Yun Chuan to be his twin, except for their age gap—Yun Chuan being 25, Tang San 12—a coincidence seeming too perfect to be random.
Unbeknownst to Tang San, the truth was exactly that: Yun Chuan was indeed his twin brother, though the age difference was falsely reported.
