Ye Die Die followed Ah Yin into the antelope territory, disguising herself using soul skills and keeping a close eye on the Antelope King.
Ah Yin led the Blue Silver Grass to the heart of the antelope herd. In her memories, this was once the territory of the Blue Silver Grass.
The range of the Blue Silver Grass in her inherited memories was much larger. At that time, it was the dominant soul beast force in the inner region.
However, the Blue Silver King at that time was unaware of the impending danger, and by the time it arrived, it was already too late.
Seeing Ah Yin settling down with the Blue Silver Grass without sensing any hostility from the Antelope King, Ye Die Die revealed her true form.
"Sister Die Die, where do you want to settle down? I want to be near you," Ah Yin asked.
"I'll stay here, and you can settle over there," Ye Die Die replied.
Ye Die Die chose a flower as her spot, not far from the ancient tree.
Ah Yin followed Ye Die Die's suggestion and rooted herself under the large tree, growing her roots.
Then, she gave instructions to her Blue Silver Grass clan.
Each Blue Silver Grass carried some seeds and they planted them around the designated territory, awaiting their rapid growth and reproduction.
These seeds not only contributed to the prosperity of the Blue Silver Grass clan but also served as surveillance and defense mechanisms.
Ye Die Die couldn't help but marvel at the fact that although the combat power of the Blue Silver Grass was weak, their amplification ability was indeed strong.
Within the Blue Silver Grass domain, all soul beasts could feel the accelerated effect on their soul power.
After organizing her own house, Ye Die Die took out the herbs she had brought, which were all First Growth Grass.
In the chaotic region, due to the insufficient soul power in the environment, the grass couldn't grow again. But now they were in the inner region with abundant soul power.
After planting the herbs, which had already reached their growth limit in the chaotic region, Ye Die Die could faintly sense them absorbing soul power once again.
She could feel that these First Growth Grass could grow into Second Growth Grass again, but it would take time to confirm.
After planting the First Growth Grass, Ye Die Die planted another type of herb, the Spirit Grass. She had grown fond of this grass.
Her spiritual power was growing so rapidly, all thanks to the effect of these Spirit Grass.
However, when she reached the level of a Ten Thousand-Year Beast, the effect of the Spirit Grass on her was no longer significant. But she still had her trump card.
Ye Die Die took out a Spirit Grass with silver patterns growing on it and used her trump card on this plant.
Of course, she didn't forget to use her soul skills to disguise her own energy and the energy of the Spirit Grass.
With the activation of her trump card, the spiritual power contained within the Spirit Grass began to strengthen.
"Boom!"
As the Spirit Grass was amplified and transformed into a First Spirit Grass, a tremendous spiritual power burst out from its leaves, breaking through Ye Die Die's soul skill disguise.
The impact of this First Spirit Grass's energy left Ye Die Die stunned. In an instant, she regained her senses and immediately maintained her soul skill.
If there were powerful beings enveloping the entire inner region, they would have noticed that all the soul beasts in the Star Dou Forest's inner region had stopped their actions for a brief moment.
After that fleeting moment, they continued with what they were doing as if nothing unusual had happened.
Only a few powerful Ten Thousand-Year Beasts with strong spiritual power could sense something amiss, but it disappeared soon after.
"Hmm..."
"I don't think I made a mistake just now. No soul beasts should have detected this place. It shouldn't attract a wave of beasts, right?"
Ye Die Die mumbled to herself. She had also been stunned by the surge of spiritual power just now, feeling a powerful spiritual force transmitting outward.
"Yes, that's right. There shouldn't be any. Even my spiritual power, as strong as that of a Fifty Thousand-Year Beast, was disrupted. No other soul beasts could escape this, unless it's a Hundred Thousand-Year Beast."
"Hundred Thousand-Year Beasts probably wouldn't pay attention to this small and weak grass like me!"
Ye Die Die reassured herself.
"Sister Die Die, did you just feel something? It seemed like an indescribable sensation."
Ah Yin's spiritual power reached out to her. With Ye Die Die's usual help, her spiritual power was already equivalent to that of a Twenty Thousand-Year Beast, and she had been relatively close just now.
She could feel that something seemed to have happened, but at the same time, it seemed like nothing had happened, so she ran over to ask Ye Die Die.
"Ah... Ah Yin, it's nothing. Don't worry about it."
Next, she asked Ah Yin to focus on her cultivation and gave her a Three Growth Grass to aid her progress.
After instructing Ah Yin, Ye Die Die arrived at the edge of the Blue Silver Grass and Antelope territories.
She released all her spiritual power, enveloping a quarter of the Star Dou Forest's inner region.
Then, she patrolled within these territories, wanting to see if there was anything amiss.
A month quickly passed by.
"Phew, there shouldn't be any soul beasts that have discovered this place. I haven't seen any soul beasts heading in this direction."
"That's good. I've patrolled for a month without any activity. It seems like no soul beasts have found us. It's time to focus on cultivation."
Ye Die Die let go of her worries and hurried back to her residence to concentrate on cultivation.
She took out the First Spirit Grass, finally having time to observe it closely.
This First Spirit Grass also had only one pattern, but it was different from the silver pattern on the Spirit Grass. This pattern was golden.
The golden pattern on the First Spirit Grass shimmered in the sunlight, looking incredibly beautiful.
Ye Die Die placed the grass with the golden pattern into her mouth and slowly absorbed its spiritual power to enhance her own.
During this period, she used her soul skills to disguise the First Spirit Grass well, except for that one time it was disrupted.
Ye Die Die didn't have time to absorb its energy after amplification; she immediately went on patrol. Now, she finally had time to fully absorb it.
The First Spirit Grass contained a tremendous amount of spiritual power. Ye Die Die dared only to absorb it slowly, afraid that if she absorbed it too quickly and forcefully, she would face a situation similar to last time.
She spent a whole year absorbing the energy within the First Spirit Grass, finally depleting its essence.
After fully absorbing the First Spirit Grass, Ye Die Die could feel that her own spiritual power had once again grown significantly.
She took out another Spirit Grass, stared at it for a long time, but ultimately decided not to use her trump card for amplification.
"What if I face another disruption? What if a soul beast discovers me this time?"
Ye Die Die pondered. Although the probability was extremely small, as low as 1%, she didn't dare to take the risk.
Ye Die Die replied, feeling a bit nervous.
Once she attracted a Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast, it would not only endanger herself but also put Ah Yin and even the entire Blue Silver Grass tribe at risk.
In the end, Ye Die Die gave up on the idea of using her trump card. However, the existing Spirit Grasses had little effect on her now, and if she wanted to enhance her spiritual power, she could only rely on cultivation.
"Ah well, let's focus on cultivation then!"
