Chapter 530.

In an instant, the light radiating from the Chaos Green Lotus began to intensify. Its petals, seedlings, seeds, and leaves all glowed with their respective hues, resonating together as they bore the torrent of surging divine power.

At the same time, a cyan light enveloped Wang Feng, concealing the red glow of the soul ring and forming a mystical, fog-like barrier around him. Though it appeared cyan up close, from a distance it shimmered with chaotic hues—like a vortex of primordial energy.

High above, Bo Saixi narrowed her eyes as she hovered silently in the air, observing Wang Wu.

But her senses were blocked.

On Sea God Mountain, nothing usually escaped her divine perception—be it people, energy, or soul power fluctuations. But this time she could perceive nothing within that cyan haze.

However, she could sense the terrifying presence of the 800,000-year-old soul ring. That alone sent a tremor through her heart.

What does an 800,000-year-old soul ring mean?

Bo Saixi didn't know. Because even she had never possessed a soul ring of such an age.

In fact, no Titled Douluo in the entire world had this level of soul ring unless it was obtained through soul beast sacrifice—and even then, it was never this old.

But because this was a God-bestowed soul ring, it meant one thing: Wang Wu could absorb it without any complications.

"What is his Martial Soul?"

She desperately wanted to pierce through the mist, to glimpse what lay beyond. But she couldn't.

Chaos. That was the only word that came to her mind.

The aura of the Chaos Green Lotus seemed to defy all logic, suppressing everything in its path. Even from a distance, Bo Saixi felt as though she stood beneath a force greater than divinity—as if she were once again inside the Sea God Temple, communing with the Sea God himself.

She could only shake her head in disbelief.

He's right here on Sea God Mountain and yet I can't even tell what his martial soul is?

A feeling of helpless awe washed over her.

Meanwhile, time passed slowly inside the cocoon of cyan light.

Within Wang Feng's sea of consciousness, his mental power grew increasingly radiant under the protection of the Chaos Green Lotus. The lotus itself became fuller, glowing with vitality.

Then, without warning, six beams of light shot out from the lotus. They manifested as six distinct forms, orbiting gracefully in his spiritual sea. Each emanated an aura of peace and power, releasing waves of energy that gently bathed Wang Feng's cocooned body—as if healing, cleansing, and strengthening him.

After a moment, the six forms returned to the lotus.

Suddenly, the true form of Wang Feng's martial soul—the Chaos Green Lotus—emerged from above his head, glowing with a blinding chaotic light that enveloped his entire body.

It was a thing of pure beauty.

Then—the world stilled.

The flowing Sea God's Light paused in midair. The storm clouds that once churned above the mountain halted. The rain, lightning, and divine pressure from Bo Saixi's scepter simply vanished.

A profound stillness settled over Sea God Mountain—as if time itself had stopped.

Bo Saixi stood solemnly at the summit, watching.

"Three months…"

It had already been three months since Wang Wu began absorbing the 800,000-year soul ring.

Unlike a –100,000-year soul ring, which might be –absorbed in a matter of few days with aid—such as the Meteoric Tears—this one required much longer.

Even Zhu Zhuqing, with Meteoric Tears, had taken two days to absorb a regular 100,000-year soul ring. Tang San needed nearly two months.

But 800,000 years…

This wasn't just strength—it was something far beyond comprehension.

And now, a vision had appeared.

Bo Saixi stared at the still air around her, sensing how even her divine control had been temporarily nullified by the sheer force of Wang Wu's martial soul.

"What kind of martial soul can cause the heavens and earth to halt? Can suppress the Sea God's divine light and scatter the power of my scepter in an instant?"

Even she, a great priestess of the Sea God's Trials, was bewildered.

This was the seventh soul ring, and its awakening had unleashed—the Martial Soul True Body.

And its manifestation had created a vision so strong, it broke through divine restrictions and shook the very laws of Sea God Mountain.

Down at the base of the mountain and along the coast, Tang San and the others—who had been grinding through their second trial—suddenly noticed the shift in the world.

The storm clouds were gone. Even the rain had stopped abruptly.

"It's from Sea God Mountain…" Bai Chenxiang pointed upward.

High on the mountaintop, –a blazing cyan light pierced the skies.

"It must be Wang Wu... He's still absorbing that soul ring… It's been three months already!"

Gasps echoed among the group.

"What kind of martial soul and soul ring could trigger this kind of change in the world…?" Ning Rongrong murmured.

The others stared upward, awe-struck.

And then, in the distance—

The cocoon shattered.

A cyan light erupted from it like a divine explosion.

It was far away, but even at this distance, they could all see it clearly—a cyan beam –of light, reaching from the mountaintop into the heavens.

The beam was immense, chaotic, and overwhelming.

No one could see what was happening inside, but the energy radiating from it was unmistakable:

It was chaotic, majestic, and divine.

The entire world seemed to shake beneath its power.

"Brother... the aura of that beam of light is no weaker than the one we saw when we fought the Deep Sea Demon Whale in that sea region. Only, the color is different, and the energy it releases feels completely different," Xiao Wu's soul, housed within her body and linked to Tang San's spirit, spoke solemnly.

Everyone was stunned.

Back then, the only reason they survived was that some mysterious peerless powerhouse had intervened to hold off the Deep Sea Demon Whale.

Thanks to that interference, the nine of them had escaped death with their lives intact.

They had often heard rumors of that incident while staying at Purple Pearl Island—how a powerful figure had appeared during the battle.

Although Xiao Wu had been protected by Tang San at the time and hadn't seen it firsthand, she had sensed the energy faintly while inside the soul ring.

"Was it really that powerful...?" Everyone was left speechless.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flickered slightly as she frowned.

"How many years old was that soul ring? What soul ring was it? Was it the seventh? Eighth? Or the ninth?"

Everyone was filled with questions, but no one had answers.

At this point, they had no way of knowing the truth. Due to the temporary suspension of the second test's restrictions, they couldn't proceed with their assessment—and they were left in suspense.

The brilliant cyan light didn't last long. Gradually, it began to fade.

In the distance, atop Sea God Mountain, a figure no larger than a grain of rice appeared, blurred slightly by the golden glow of the Sea God's Light which once again cloaked the summit. They could barely make out any detail of what had become of Wang Wu.

But inside Sea God Mountain, Bo Saixi, who had been observing everything, finally caught sight of Wang Wu's figure.

Three months had passed—and it seemed he had finally completed the absorption of the god-bestowed soul ring.

From the moment that massive –cyan beam shot into the sky, Bo Saixi had known: once he absorbed this spirit ring, Wang Wu's strength would reach an entirely new realm.

She thought back to that moment over half a year ago—during the battle with the Deep Sea Demon Whale. Even while she was deep in cultivation within the Sea God Temple, she had clearly sensed that beam of light from across the sea.

Though it hadn't carried overwhelming force, its presence alone had filled her with an inexplicable sense of dread.

That terrifying momentum—almost divine in nature—was something she had never forgotten.

And now, Wang Wu's beam of light was no weaker.

It was a clear sign that this man's strength had reached terrifying levels.

Maybe he was not stronger than Bo Saixi …

But even if she wanted to kill him here on Sea God Island, she wasn't sure it would be possible anymore now.

Finally, Wang Wu's figure appeared clearly.

And Bo Saixi saw it.

Or rather, she saw the chaotic glow surrounding him. At its center stood a man—so striking, so transcendent—that no words could describe him.

Not even a fragment of his presence could be captured using ordinary terms like "handsome" or "noble."

Bo Saixi, who had lived for over a century and seen countless heroes and beauties, had never encountered anyone remotely like this man.

How could such a flawless lifeform be born into this world...?

Before she saw him, she felt his presence first.

It was a life force so pure and flawless, so perfectly attuned to the heavens and the earth, that Bo Saixi was shaken to her core.

It wasn't just spiritual or martial power. It was something higher, something holistic, something... universal.

It reminded her of the awe she felt when she once stood beneath the Sea God's statue, gazing upward in reverence.

And now, she felt that same reverence—but for Wang Wu.

From the beginning, Bo Saixi had known there was something extraordinary about him. Even though he seemed to hide part of his strength, he never gave off an evil aura.

Now, it was even more exaggerated.

The breath surrounding him no longer felt like it came from a person...

It felt like the presence of an entire world.

That strange sensation made Bo Saixi genuinely uneasy. It was as if his aura had transcended mere "life" and evolved into something higher.

Something that compelled others to submit. To worship.

Wang Wu stood calmly on the 800th step.

He was still wearing the same black robe he had donned before the beam of light had appeared. His face was expressionless.

But his body had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.

After the Chaos Green Lotus martial soul absorbed the soul ring, it transformed into its true body form. Unless it released a burst of energy, it constantly emitted a mysterious light that bathed Wang Feng's body repeatedly, cleansing it several times.

Subtle changes began to occur in his originally Dustlesss Glazed Body. Though Wang Feng wasn't fully aware of these changes, both his soul power and spiritual power had clearly evolved. His spiritual power, once like a mighty river, had now expanded even further—becoming broader, deeper, and seemingly limitless. In his consciousness, the silver sea of mental energy appeared boundless, as though he had reached a new realm.

It seemed like he'd hit a bottleneck, yet something had undeniably shifted. Wang Feng couldn't fully grasp the specifics, but he vaguely sensed that his soul power's attributes had undergone a slight transformation.

After being bathed in the light of the Chaos Green Lotus, even his bones shimmered faintly with a bluish hue. His blood now surged with incredible vitality, as if each drop contained an entire universe.

Wang Feng knew his physique had changed, though he didn't fully understand the extent or exact nature of the transformation. But when he closed his eyes to sense the world around him, everything suddenly felt impure. It was as if he had become detached, removed from the world—elevated above it.

Even when he looked at Bo Saixi, he felt a strange sense of "uncleanliness" from her.

"Perhaps I've evolved to a higher level of life," Wang Feng thought, though the feeling wasn't overwhelming. It seemed that the body purified by the Chaos Green Lotus still wasn't complete. At this level, Wang Feng began to faintly comprehend certain truths about the world—but the insight was fleeting, slipping away like a dream.

He felt a strange itch of realization that he couldn't quite scratch.

"Maybe it's no longer the Dustless Glazed Body… Perhaps I should call it the Chaos Glazed Body? Or the Chaos Dustless Glazed Body?" he mused. "But even then… it feels incomplete."

He had to admit—the Chaos Green Lotus was truly powerful, on par with the legendary Pangu Axe. However, unlike the Pangu Axe, which existed in its complete form, the Chaos Qinglian martial soul was too overwhelming and needed to be nurtured gradually.

Wang Feng hadn't fully realized its power until it manifested in its true form. The beam of light that shot into the sky after this transformation was no less majestic than the one produced by the Pangu Axe. In fact, the current form of the Chaos Green Lotus martial soul felt nearly complete.

Thinking this way, Wang Feng began to wonder—could the martial soul true body of the Pangu Axe also evolve or change in some way?

As for the effects of Chaos Green Lotus True Body, Wang Feng felt it was… terrifying.

The function was simple, yet astonishing, within the true body form, Wang Feng could switch between any two of his martial soul forms freely and without restriction. The only cost was a massive consumption of energy. In addition, all his soul abilities were now amplified by 100%.

"I should be able to fight a Level 99 Peerless Douluo to a standstill," Wang Feng guessed. "It's hard to say what the outcome would be, though. Bo Saixi is –a seasoned Peerless Douluo, and she's unlikely to be defeated while on Sea God Island. But outside of it the situation might be different."

The Chaos Green Lotus ability to utilize two forms simultaneously was utterly monstrous. No matter which two he chose, it would result in a qualitative leap in strength.

Though only the real form of the Chaos Green Lotus had awakened so far, Wang Feng believed it held more secrets—especially the purifying light that strengthened his body, soul power, and spiritual energy.

This new energy couldn't even be described with normal terms. It felt like soul power, but more refined—a higher-level of energy. The most obvious change was that energy absorbed by his body now had to undergo multiple rounds of compression and purification before it could be transformed into his current soul power.

There were pros and cons to this evolution. The benefits were significant: reduced energy consumption for soul abilities, enhanced endurance, and increased ability potency. While Wang Feng wasn't certain of the exact increases, he knew that the core abilities of his six forms would inevitably rise.

Each form had its own function, Golden Lotus: Healing and regeneration. Red Lotus: Burning and absorbing flames. Black Lotus: A defensive shield and soul power storage. God Killing Spear: Extreme offensive power. Qiankun Cauldron: Refines and tempers all things. Five Element Flags: Each with unique abilities.

Improving his soul power quality meant that all these abilities would be enhanced. Even the power of the Pangu Axe, when used, would become increasingly terrifying.

Naturally, this meant Wang Feng's combat effectiveness had greatly increased.

However, the downside was clear—his soul power would now grow more slowly.

Though he could absorb worldly energy faster, the multiple processing steps required to convert it into usable soul power meant that every increase came at a painstakingly slow rate—only forming trace amounts over time.

And finally, perhaps the most unexpected effect of the Chaos Green Lotus's mysterious light was—

It made him more handsome.
