Chapter 78: Shui Bing'er
Next came the tests for Feng Xiaotian, Yang Pojun, and Niu Meng.
Xiao Fei paid no attention to them, instead pulling Shui Bing'er aside and whispering instructions, pressing the Vast Sea Universe Cover into her hand.
Now that Xiao Fei had missed the Seagod's Nine Trials, his only hope lay with Shui Bing'er. Having consumed the Ice Heart Phoenix Sunflower, Shui Bing'er had fully unleashed the power of the Ice Phoenix.
Both her talent and her spirit had reached an extremely high level, making her uniquely suited for the Seagod's inheritance. Her only drawback was her low spirit power level.
At best, she could only pass the Black Level Six Trial, and in a year, she wouldn't have been able to clear the first of the Nine Seagod Trials. In the original novel, Tang San had to work hard and with all sorts of assistance to complete it.
Feng Xiaotian faced another Black Level Six Trial, leaving Seahorse Douluo feeling a bit overwhelmed. Yang Pojun and Niu Meng, on the other hand, were at the Black Level Four Trial, potentially showing potential for Titled Douluo status, though passing the tests would be more challenging. Feng Xiaotian, however, truly possessed a rare innate full spirit power. Despite her age, she was still recognized by the assessment.
Finally, it was Shui Bing'er's turn to take the test. Holding the Vast Sea Universe Shield in her right hand, a blue light enveloped her.
The scene in front of her also gradually turned red, but this red didn't seem to stop. It deepened and deepened until it finally turned gold.
Nine golden rays of light sank into the water, forming a golden trident between Bing'er's brows. All seven sacred pillars emitted bursts of blue light, as if celebrating something.
"The Ninth Test of the Sea God!" Poseidon and Seahorse Douluo exclaimed. Poseidon's face was serious and respectful, while Seahorse Douluo looked puzzled.
Poseidon said softly, "Let me explain. Little girl, I've been waiting for you for a hundred years. The Poseidon Nine Tests are the successors of Lord Poseidon. You must complete the tests given to you by Poseidon with unwavering determination. When you complete all the tests, you will be the new generation of Poseidon."
"Seahorse Douluo, give the order. From now on, everyone on Poseidon Island must meet the requirements of these seven people. They are the most distinguished guests of Poseidon Island."
Looking at Shui Bing'er and the others who were puzzled, Xiao Fei walked over and said to Shui Bing'er, "Poseidon Island is where the Poseidon of the God Realm inherits his legacy. Taking the tests on Poseidon Island is taking part in the tests of the God Realm. The ultimate goal of the Poseidon Nine Tests is to become a god!"
Amidst everyone's confusion, Huo Wu asked, "Are there really gods in this world? Is there a God Realm? Why haven't we heard of it before?"
"Of course, this world has gods and a divine realm. Seagod Island is the legacy of the Seagod, and the Angel Temple of the Spirit Hall is the legacy of the Angel God. But the last time someone in Douluo World became a god was estimated to be thirty thousand years ago."
Xiao Fei then said seriously, "Regardless of whether or not we achieve godhood, our purpose in coming to Seagod Island is to become stronger. We must remain steadfast in our goals and constantly hone ourselves to become stronger."
Everyone nodded.
Then, led by Seahorse Douluo, they arrived at Seahorse City, near the Seahorse Sacred Pillar. Seahorse City was small, but everyone sensed that it housed over five hundred spirit masters, all of whom were high-level spirit masters. The total inhabitants exceeded one thousand.
This was the strength of a medium-sized sect. Furthermore, Seagod Island boasted seven sacred pillars, and the three thousand five hundred spirit masters on Seagod Island were likely all high-level spirit masters.
Their overall strength even surpassed the legendary Haotian Sect, the world's foremost sect. Everyone swallowed their saliva.
Upon arriving in Seahorse City, Seahorse Douluo arranged for them to live in the City Lord's Mansion.
Xiao Fei quickly organized everyone and confirmed their assessments.
Huo Wushuang said solemnly, "My first test is very strange. It's called Crossing the Seagod's Light. What about you?"
Everyone nodded. Surprisingly, all the tests involved Crossing the Seagod's Light.
Huo Wu said, "My first test, Crossing the Seagod's Light, has instructions: Go to the core forbidden area of Seagod Island. Climb the first 108 steps to pass the test. You can quit midway, but the time limit is one year. My Crossing the Seagod's Light requires climbing 136 steps."
Huo Wushuang said, "Mine is 108."
Feng Xiaotian smiled and said, "Mine is also 108."
Yang Pojun and Niu Meng exchanged a glance: "We're at 88."
Everyone looked at Shui Bing'er and Xiao Fei. Xiao Fei smiled wryly and said, "Mine is double Seagod's Light, 333 steps. Shui Bing'er is the same. However, since Shui Bing'er is a sea spirit master, her time is ten years. All of us spirit masters have one year."
Xiao Fei couldn't help but complain in his heart: Sea God, you didn't give me the Sea God Nine Trials, but the difficulty is the same as the Sea God Nine Trials. Isn't this a rip-off?
Xiao Fei calculated in his heart that among all the people, Huo Wushuang would probably have the easiest one. The others should have no problem if they practiced hard. Yang Pojun and Niu Meng were both combat soul masters.
Although their levels were relatively low, their physical strength was good. It was estimated that they should be able to barely pass it after a year.
The hardest part is probably myself. Although I'm confident I can break through level 80, climbing 333 steps without any assistance is still very difficult. In the original novel, Tang San was over level 70 and almost failed in the end. Xiao Fei couldn't help but want to complain again.
In the God Realm, in the Sea God Hall, two huge figures sat facing each other, one blue, the other red. Between them was a tea table with various tea sets on it.
The blue figure took a sip of tea: "Fire God, what do you think of my tea? It's quite flavorful, right?"
The red figure turned out to be the Fire God, and the blue figure was also the Sea God.
The God of Fire took the teacup and took a big sip: "I don't feel anything. I don't know why you like to drink this kind of thing?"
The God of the Sea was speechless: "This is the tea leaves grown from the tea trees of the Goddess of Life. It is the best tea. It's a waste to give it to you."
The God of Fire said bluntly: "I like to drink alcohol. The taste of tea is bland and boring."
"God of the Sea, why did you give the Nine Trials of Sea God to that little girl of Ice Phoenix? Although this girl has good talent and her water attribute is very suitable for you. But with her talent, she is probably only a second-level god at most. Don't create the weakest Sea God."
The God of the Sea smiled: "I have been in the God Realm for tens of thousands of years. This little girl with the Ice Phoenix martial soul has decent talent and a pretty good martial soul. Moreover, she has the Heart of the Sea God in her hand. What's the problem with arranging the Nine Trials of Sea God for her?"
"This girl's ancestors originally came from Seagod Island, so she's considered a descendant of our Seagod Island. Each of the Nine Seagod Trials lasts ten years, which adds up to a total of 90 years. If I meet someone more suitable, I'll let this girl become a second-level god, or directly recommend her to the Ice God."
"If there's no one more suitable, she should be able to inherit my Seagod throne after 90 years."
Seeing the Seagod's wise look, the Fire God couldn't help but roll his eyes at him: "You've got a good plan."
The Seagod smiled and said, "It's because the talents of those who have taken the tests in recent years have been a little low. By the way, what do you think of that kid with the Fire Phoenix spirit? He's very suitable for your throne inheritance, right?"
Chen Yang nodded: "This kid has a good spirit and flame, and his strength is okay, but he's a little cunning. The Fire God is as blazing as a raging fire. He still needs more practice, Seagod, make his Nine Seagod Trials a little more difficult, and give him more training."
The Seagod kept complaining in his heart: If his attributes weren't completely opposite to mine, how could he give this kid to you, the Fire God? Now, he's showing off in front of me.
The Sea God suddenly thought of something and said with a smile, "Fire God, I think this kid seems to have a hint of the divinity of the Shura God. Will the Shura God come and snatch your heir?"
The Fire God's face changed slightly. "Not really. The Shura God is one of the law enforcers in the God Realm, and his strength ranks among the top five God Kings. He probably won't be interested in this kid."
Suddenly, a red light flashed, and a huge blood-red figure walked out. The man was tall and mighty, wearing red armor, which made him look even more awe-inspiring. It was the Shura God.
"Greetings, the Shura God!" The Sea God and the Fire God saluted hurriedly, but they couldn't stop complaining in their hearts: Speaking of you, you came out. Are you spying on us?
The Seagod quickly said, "Please take a seat, Lord Shura. I wonder how Lord Shura found the time to visit our Seagod Temple today?"
Lord Shura stared at the two of them and said, "I was simply on patrol near the Seagod Temple and came in to see if you had done anything illegal."
"We're just sipping tea here. How could that be illegal?"
The two gods appeared respectful, but in their hearts they kept complaining: Speaking of violations, who in the entire God Realm can compare to you, Lord Shura?
As Lord Shura sipped his tea, he said, "This tea is good. Firegod, you can actually taste tea? I'm glad you haven't violated any rules. You must not interfere with the normal development of Douluo Star."
The two gods continued to complain, even Douluo Star knew about it.
