Chapter 192: Chapter 192: Seahorse Douluo Shocked
Ever since Tang San learned about his mother and the news of the Tang Sect's secret techniques spreading across the world, he wasn't discouraged. Instead, he trained even harder, vowing to seek revenge on the Spirit Hall one day and swearing to unmask the person who dared to leak the Tang Sect's secrets, making them pay the price.
This was very much in line with Tang San's character—strong-willed and obsessive. The three things he was most fixated on in his life were Xiao Wu, the Tang Sect, and revenge. Sometimes, obsession can also be a form of motivation.
Yang Podi wasn't concerned about Tang San's current state. His focus was on the group's journey to Sea God Island.
During these few days, Niu Meng had finally reached level 60 and obtained his spirit ring, now at level 61.
Additionally, after some searching and comparing, they found a reliable team that was also transporting goods to Sea God Island.
As for the map to Sea God Island, Yang Podi personally spent a significant amount of money in Vast Sea City, purchasing several maps from different sources and cross-referencing them to ensure their authenticity.
His father, Yang Zhentian, even displayed formidable pressure to prevent any issues with the ship crew. After all, setting out to sea was no small matter, especially for a voyage that could take nearly a month. It was crucial to be cautious.
If they encountered sea pirates like those in the original work, it would be troublesome. Yang Podi was not eager to face the Deep Sea Demon Whale King just yet.
After paying sufficient funds and demonstrating their strength, the team finally set sail, embarking on the journey to Sea God Island.
The group looked at the turbulent waves and the vast, endless ocean with great excitement.
Yang Podi took charge of personnel arrangements, ensuring that at least one of the three—himself, Yang Ping'an, or Niu Meng—was always on deck to monitor the ship's direction.
After more than 20 days of sailing, they finally approached the vicinity of Sea God Island. In the distance, the blue glow of the island appeared sacred and solemn.
The captain and crew refused to go any closer. To them, Sea God Island was holy and inviolable. As for the transfer of goods, Sea God Island would naturally send people to handle it, ensuring that no outsider ships approached.
After thanking the captain, Yang Podi prepared to leave. The last few dozen kilometers to Sea God Island would require their own efforts.
However, this was a simple task for Yang Podi. He used his spirit power to lift the other five people while spreading his wings to fly directly toward Sea God Island.
After years of cultivation, the Tiger-Eagle Wings had reached the level of a 70,000-year spirit ability, now spanning a width of five meters and allowing for extremely fast flight.
The last few dozen kilometers were covered in just ten minutes, and the group arrived above Sea God Island.
Upon entering the vicinity of Sea God Island, the six of them landed directly on the beach rather than continuing to fly forward. Yang Podi sensed an invisible suppressive force in the air, seemingly restricting flying spirit masters above the island.
Looking around, the island was lush and green, resembling the mainland. The vibrant vitality of the plants was especially strong, akin to being in a primeval forest. Such pure and potent life energy could only be felt in the Star Dou Forest, and even there, it wasn't this pure—untainted by any bloodshed or killing intent.
The beach glistened white under the sunlight, the blue ocean merging seamlessly with the azure sky. Numerous seagulls soared overhead, creating a picturesque, otherworldly scene.
The three girls couldn't help but cheer in delight. After such a long journey at sea, they had finally reached their destination.
At this moment, seven figures suddenly emerged from the forest. All were dressed in yellow robes, their attire different from mainland spirit masters. Judging by the spirit power fluctuations emanating from them, it was clear that they were spirit masters.
The leading man looked slightly angry, clearly displeased by the unauthorized entry. "Who are you, and why have you intruded on Sea God Island?"
Seeing these individuals, Yang Podi quickly stepped forward and greeted them politely. "Seniors, the six of us have come here out of admiration for Sea God Island. We hope to undergo the trials and join the island."
The middle-aged leader seemed suspicious, carefully scrutinizing the six of them. "Judging by your attire, you must be mainland spirit masters. Sea God Island does not welcome outsiders, let alone spirit masters from the mainland. Leave the way you came."
Yang Podi promptly replied, "Senior, I've heard that mainland spirit masters can also join Sea God Island by passing the trials. Please help us verify this."
The middle-aged man looked at the group in doubt, scrutinizing them further. "You seem to know quite a bit about Sea God Island. However, I advise you to leave. While mainland spirit masters can undergo the trials, Lord Sea God's trials are incredibly harsh and not something you can pass."
"You are all very young, with outstanding talent and impressive strength. However, joining Sea God Island requires more than courage; it demands Lord Sea God's favor. I urge you not to throw away your lives needlessly."
Yang Podi smiled faintly. "Senior, rest assured. We are not reckless. We have our reasons for coming to Sea God Island and would not risk our lives in vain."
"As spirit masters, we must have the courage to face all challenges. Otherwise, how can we grow stronger? Please grant us this opportunity, Senior."
After speaking, Yang Podi glanced at the five people behind him. Yang Tianyue and the others grew serious, declaring in unison, "We are not afraid of death. Please grant us this opportunity, Senior."
The middle-aged man's expression turned grave. As a Spirit Emperor, he was surprised that he couldn't gauge the spirit power levels of the six individuals before him. Clearly, they were at least Spirit Emperor level or higher. Judging by their youthful appearances, the oldest among them couldn't be more than twenty, and the youngest, Yang Tianyue, seemed like a mere student.
Finally, the middle-aged man spoke solemnly. "This is your last chance. Know that Lord Sea God's trials don't just test strength and courage; they also depend on whether Lord Sea God favors you."
"Sometimes, the trials are as simple as holding a handful of sand. Other times, they are as difficult as challenging and defeating a 100,000-year spirit beast."
"Once you begin the trials, there is no turning back. Your only choices are to pass or to die. Have you truly thought this through?"
Yang Podi answered resolutely, "Senior, I am ready. I wish to undergo the trials."
The five behind him also declared, "Senior, we are all ready. We wish to undergo the trials."
The middle-aged man shook his head and murmured something to a nearby spirit master, who then quickly left the scene.
The man turned back to the group. "Follow me. I hope you do not regret your decision."
Under his lead, the six entered the forest cautiously. Within the forest was a small path, seemingly prepared for passage.
Yang Podi attempted to use his spiritual sense to probe the surroundings, only to feel an invisible force blocking him. The suppressive power here was even stronger than that of the Slaughter City.
The middle-aged man noticed this and said flatly, "Do not try to sense anything. This is Sea God Island, under the protection of Lord Sea God."
Yang Podi's expression subtly shifted. The Sea God seemed to be exceptionally generous, willing to grant such divine protection over an entire island. Sea God Island, spanning hundreds of kilometers, was far larger than the Slaughter City.
After some time, they arrived at a peculiar water pool surrounded by dense forest. The pool had a diameter of about 500 meters.
In the center of the pool was a triangular platform with a strange stone pillar standing tall. The pillar resembled a sharp cone, with an intricate sculpture at its apex. The entire surface of the pillar was covered in complex engravings, emanating immense energy that seemed to envelope the entire island.
In the middle of the pillar sat a figure clad in black. Yang Podi thought to himself, This must be one of the Seven Sacred Pillars, and the person beneath it should be a Titled Douluo.
However, both the scale and the divine power of the Seven Sacred Pillars far exceeded expectations. It seemed these Seven Sacred Pillars resonated with one another, spreading divine power across the entire Sea God Island.
The leading middle-aged man appeared more solemn: "Welcome to the Sea within the Sea, the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar. This is one of the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island. The Sea God bestowed divine power upon these sacred pillars, which spread the will of the Sea God. Any one of these sacred pillars can administer the test for external soul masters. Here, you will receive the challenge issued by Lord Sea God."
Then, the leading man bowed respectfully to the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar. "Honorable Sea Horse Douluo, these external land soul masters wish to undergo the test bestowed by Lord Sea God to join Sea God Island. I request your approval."
The person under the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar suddenly opened his eyes, emitting a strong aura of soul power. "Land soul masters wish to undergo the test of Lord Sea God? You must first cross the Sea within the Sea and reach the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar before you qualify to take the test."
Immediately, the previously calm water pool surged with waves. From above the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, a strange energy spread, enveloping the entire water pool, imposing a great pressure.
Hearing this, Yang Podi and the other five exchanged glances. Yang Ping'an spoke first: "Let me try first."
With that, Yang Ping'an was the first to leap into the water. Facing the crashing waves, he summoned his martial soul, the Breaking Soul Spear, and continuously thrust it forward, parting the waves.
At this moment, the Sea Horse Douluo waved his hand, and the waves became even more intense and ferocious. Seeing this, Yang Ping'an's eyes filled with determination. The fifth spirit ring on his body lit up, activating his fifth spirit skill: White Tiger Annihilation Strike. A massive Breaking Soul Spear shot forward like a sharp arrow, splitting the waves in two. Yang Ping'an followed closely behind the spear, reaching the front of Sea Horse Douluo.
Sea Horse Douluo couldn't help but nod. "Excellent spear technique. It conveys an unyielding spirit of advancing forward. Among Soul Emperors, it's rare to find someone who could defeat you. Considering your talent at barely over twenty years old, it's no wonder you have the confidence to come to Sea God Island. You qualify to take Lord Sea God's test."
Next, the others took turns crossing the Sea within the Sea using various methods.
The second to go was Dugu Yan. Her approach was straightforward and brutal. With a single spirit ability, she poisoned all the sea spirit beasts in the water. Then, facing the surging waves, the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor executed a Dragon Tail Whip, splitting the waves. She transformed into a serpent and swiftly swam across. Afterward, she detoxified the sea spirit beasts, avoiding any potential enmity.
Sea Horse Douluo was speechless. The intensity of this poison was truly outrageous.
The third to go was Niu Meng. At twenty years old, he was already over two meters tall and had a body full of exaggerated muscles, resembling a bull. Without caring about the attacking sea spirit beasts or the waves, he relied on his incredible defense to charge straight through. The attacks seemed to merely scratch him.
Sea Horse Douluo sighed again. "Young man, your defense is impressive. Among Soul Emperors, there's probably no one who can match your level of resilience."
The fourth was Ye Lingling. With her strong physical constitution, she faced the attacking waves by using a self-created soul skill, the Soul Power Spiral Sphere, which Yang Podi had taught her. This skill directly smashed through the waves. As she advanced, she activated her innate soul skill: Radiant Protective Light, repelling the remaining waves and sea spirit beasts, allowing her to cross swiftly.
Sea Horse Douluo was astonished. "Young lady, if I'm not mistaken, you're a healing-type soul master, correct? Yet you possess such a powerful self-created soul skill. And what was that final soul skill you used?"
Ye Lingling bowed respectfully. "Senior, that last ability is a soul skill granted by my evolved martial soul. I call it Radiant Protective Light. The self-created skill was taught to me by a friend."
Sea Horse Douluo couldn't help but murmur inwardly: Since when did martial soul evolution grant such formidable soul skills? And to think the self-created skill was taught by a friend…
The fifth to go was Yang Tianyue. Her approach was even more aggressive. Using the Breaking Soul Spear, she unleashed her spirit abilities with overpowering might, forcefully carving a path through. Her spirit ability's power seemed to exceed even Yang Ping'an's.
Sea Horse Douluo was visibly shocked. "Young lady, judging by your age, you must be under twenty. Yet you're already at this level of strength?"
Yang Tianyue responded humbly, "Senior, I'm Yang Tianyue, fifteen years old, Spirit Power Level 66."
Sea Horse Douluo's expression darkened. A fifteen-year-old Soul Emperor? What kind of monstrous talent was this?
