Chapter 20: The Prototype of a Domain?
The night faded like the tide, and the first ray of dawn shone through the cracks onto the floor of the blacksmith shop, casting mottled reflections.
Su Lin first raised his heavy eyelids, and consciousness gradually returned.
Then, he suddenly opened his eyes, supported himself on the ground with his hands, and stood up in an instant.
Yesterday's burning pain has turned into a rushing torrent, and Su Lin only feels that his body is more relaxed than ever before.
He gently raised his hands and clenched his fists. He felt as if his strength had increased a lot, and he was full of energy, as if he had endless strength all over his body.
He tried to activate the soul power in his body again, and felt that his meridians seemed to be widened, and the speed of soul power flow increased a lot.
"My flesh and bones have clearly been strengthened. I think I can now rival the strength of a Soul Master... It's worth all the effort I put into melting this piece of ten-thousand-year-old Whale Glue!"
Looking around, there was silence and no signs of the gates being moved.
"He didn't come back all night. Shi San, the owner of this blacksmith shop, was quite respectful after taking the money..."
Su Lin nodded with satisfaction, put the disassembled forging furnace into the storage soul guide device before opening the door and leaving.
As soon as he went out, he saw a burly man walking slowly towards him from the corner. It was Shi San, the owner of the blacksmith shop.
"You came just in time. It saved us from having to close the shop."
Su Lin was in a good mood as he had finally solved the problem of the thousand-year-old Whale Glue.
"Hey, blacksmithing is a family tradition. I feel uncomfortable if I don't work all day. It's really early!"
Shi San touched his head and replied somewhat embarrassedly.
Actually, he was worried about being robbed, so he kept watching the door and windows...
Su Lin roughly understood his concerns, but didn't say anything. He just asked, "I still need to buy some seeds. Do you know if the store is open at this time?"
"It's open, it's open. I just passed by them!"
Su Lin nodded. After buying the seeds, the purpose of going to Notting City was basically achieved, and he could return to the village.
After returning to the familiar Thatched Village, Su Lin first went to Old John's house.
"Stinky boy, you're finally back. We're going to Holy Soul Village tomorrow. You have to come with me to take a look!"
Su Lin nodded and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Village Chief. By the way, I brought back a forge this time. I wonder if the abandoned blacksmith shop in the village can still be used."
Old John frowned. "Why buy this? Our village isn't far from Notting City. I'll see if the Zhang kid is interested tomorrow when I have some free time."
"Thank you, Village Chief. I'm going to go practice now!"
Su Lin knew that since Old John said so, it would basically work, and it would be much easier to melt the Whale Glue in the future.
The back mountain of Thatched Village is where Blue Silver Grass gathers.
The great king finally returned to his kingdom!
"First Soul Skill, Life Sharing!"
Su Lin skillfully used his first soul skill, and dozens more of his Blue Silver Grass "people" appeared under his command.
After carefully studying this soul skill, Su Lin discovered that the first soul skill itself actually has no limit on the number.
However, when he used his spirit to perform this soul skill, he had to consider how many targets the spirit could affect at one time.
Fortunately, after that transformation, the origin of the Blue Silver Grass spirit increased a little, and when he used his soul power to activate the Blue Silver Grass, he was more adept at it, and it was very easy for him to extend dozens of leaves and vines at once.
However, he was still unable to achieve precise control, which seemed to require not only rigorous training but also considerable spiritual strength.
Sitting cross-legged among the Blue Silver Grass, Su Lin gently raised his hand to summon his spirit, which had grown a circle larger, and began to meditate skillfully.
By now, it was no longer difficult for him to integrate into this piece of Blue Silver Grass. It was as easy as going home.
"king..."
The hazy will of the hundreds of Blue Silver Grasses under his command came again.
Rule!
Su Lin had a sudden realization in his heart that he could control these Blue Silver Grasses.
He could even clearly feel that he could make them devote everything at any time, and he could also share their perspectives at any time.
Even the other Blue Silver Grasses around, even though they had not yet established that strange connection, subtly conveyed a message of intimacy.
He tried to touch the Blue Silver Grass that he had already controlled, and suddenly...
In his perception, the whole world seemed to look different.
As he closed his eyes and concentrated, the vision of hundreds of Blue Silver Grasses lit up like sparks, interweaving into a flowing web in his consciousness—
Every inch of land on the hill behind Thatched Village, every breath of wind, and even the crawling of insects and ants under the soil were all clearly transmitted through the vibration of the grass leaves.
"Could this be considered... the prototype of the Blue Silver Domain?"
Su Lin felt a little surprised.
It seemed that he really had no way back on this road of "usurping the throne".
It was as if a country within a country had been established among the Blue Silver Grass tribe.
In his own little piece of land, he could even create something similar to the Blue Silver Domain.
But without these Blue Silver Grasses, they were beaten back to their original form.
"But there are only a few hundred Blue Silver Grasses here. If I continue walking on this path, and all the Blue Silver Grasses obey my commands... what kind of scene will that be?"
Su Lin shook his head, not thinking about the distant future, but just carefully feeling his current situation.
Faintly, he seemed to feel that his spiritual strength was slowly growing.
It was extremely slow, almost undetectable. If Su Lin hadn't deliberately tried to sense it, it would have been difficult to detect.
But at the same time, in this state, his spiritual energy is consumed faster.
In just a moment, he felt that he had consumed more than half of his energy.
At this moment, the surrounding Blue Silver Grass that had not been controlled was like hazy fireflies, conveying a friendly feeling.
Su Lin had an idea and tried to communicate with them in the last possible time.
Unfortunately, the response was mixed.
But Su Lin did not give up. This time, he only communicated with one of them alone and tried to integrate the other party into this "Blue Silver Domain".
Success!
When communicating with one of them alone, the message was conveyed relatively more clearly, and there was no resistance.
"With this new method, the number of Blue Silver Grasses under control can increase even faster..."
"Hmm!"
Su Lin suddenly felt a headache.
There were waves of tingling sensations in the brain, which was a sign that the spiritual strength had been exhausted to the extreme.
He didn't think any more and immediately withdrew his consciousness, exiting this special shared state.
After lying among the Blue Silver Grass for a long time, Su Lin finally felt that he was no longer feeling any discomfort, and finally stood up slowly.
"I don't have any way to cultivate my spiritual power. Being able to slowly increase my spiritual power in this state is a pleasant surprise."
"If my spiritual strength is strong enough, perhaps in that special state, I can bring more Blue Silver Grass under my control."
