NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 12: Chapter 12: Refining the Martial Spirit – A New Breakthrough
Notting Academy – Tang Xuan's Room
Tang Xuan sat in meditation, surrounded by his vines, which slowly absorbed energy from the sunlight.
"My strength is growing, but I still need more."
His goal was simple—to evolve his Blue Silver Grass to the pinnacle of power.

1. Strengthening Toxicity
Most poisons could be countered with antidotes, but what if his toxin could adapt to bypass immunity?
By researching and cultivating spirit beast venoms, Tang Xuan developed a method to create a self-evolving toxin.
If an opponent countered it, the poison would change composition instantly.
It could paralyze, weaken, or corrode an enemy's spirit energy based on the situation.
His spirit rings would amplify its effectiveness, making it deadly even at higher ranks.
"From now on, every strike I land will be fatal."

2. Enhancing Regeneration
His vines were already durable, but what if they could heal instantly from any damage?
By forcing his spirit energy into the root system, he created a regenerative cycle that allowed:
Instant healing if his vines were cut or burned.
The ability to absorb enemy attacks and convert them into healing energy.
A slow adaptation to elements, making him resistant to fire, ice, and even lightning.
"No matter what my enemies do, I will always recover."

3. Adaptive Growth
By combining regeneration with spirit beast traits, Tang Xuan refined his Blue Silver Grass to change shape and function based on the enemy.
Against brute force users, it would harden like steel.
Against speed-based opponents, it would become flexible and fast.
It could form blades, shields, or even mimic armor, depending on the battle.
"With this, my martial spirit will surpass all limits."
Tang Xuan's eyes gleamed with ambition.
His Blue Silver Grass was no longer just a plant.
It was becoming a weapon of absolute destruction.
