Chapter 270 The Assessment! A False Alarm
Chapter 270 The Assessment! What a scare!
(The title of the previous chapter was wrong; it should be chapter 262.)
"I am a Soul Master from the mainland, titled [Skybreaker]. Greetings to the esteemed lords of Seagod Island!"
Li Luochen started with a series of courtesies, leaving one Limit Douluo and seven Title Douluos from Seagod Island completely bewildered.
"Uh, oh, Your Majesty Qingtian greets you! ×7" The seven Holy Pillar Douluos also returned the greeting with clasped hands, but they all bowed, to show their respect to Li Luochen, the extremely powerful Qingtian Douluo.
Poseidon returned the greeting with her hands clasped in a fist salute. Facing a powerful figure like Li Luochen, she also needed to make a statement. Although she could sense that Li Luochen's cultivation level was 98, his 100,000-year-old soul rings were genuine.
She has already brought Li Luochen to the same level as herself.
"May I ask what brings Your Majesty, Sky-Supporting One, to my Seagod Island?"
Poseidon spoke in a gentle tone, her voice incredibly soothing. No wonder Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu were both amazed. Li Luochen also looked Poseidon over and thought, "Beautiful! No less than my mother-in-law, Bibi Dong."
But she's still a fraction less beautiful than my own little angel. Sure enough, my little angel is the most beautiful in mainland China. I really hit the jackpot!
"Please wait a moment, Your Majesty, Sea God!"
Li Luochen smiled and said, "Just then, a dozen or so people suddenly ran out from the beach. They all looked to be around twenty years old, and their soul power fluctuations were generally around the Soul Emperor level. Some of them even reached the Soul Saint level."
Even the discerning Poseidon was somewhat shocked. Reaching the Soul Emperor level around the age of twenty, and even Soul Saint, was such talent terrifying?
Poseidon had some guesses in her mind and was waiting for Li Luochen's answer.
"Everyone is here, Your Majesty the Sea God. We have come to participate in the test bestowed upon us by the Sea God. Please lead them to the test."
Li Luochen directly stated the purpose of his visit, and the seven Sacred Pillar Douluos were all shocked. They were probably shocked countless times today.
The seven Holy Pillar Douluos were well aware of the Seagod Island trial; it was tantamount to courting death, despite the generous rewards.
"Okay, come with me."
Poseidon said calmly, sensing that today might be an extraordinary day.
The seven Holy Pillar Douluos also breathed a sigh of relief. All that tension was just for an assessment. What a false alarm!
Led by the seven Holy Pillar Douluos, the Shrek Seven Devils traversed a forest. If the air on the beach was moist and pure, then the air in the woods was filled with the freshness of nature. The air here felt even more wonderful than that in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Since everyone was quite strong, they moved very quickly and soon arrived at a strange place.
What appeared before the Shrek group was a pool of water, like a sea within a sea. Most strangely, this inland pool, which should have been perfectly calm, was now surging like a vast ocean, moving without wind.
The pool was surrounded by dense forest, and appeared to be about 500 meters in diameter. In the center of the pool was a triangular platform upon which stood a strange stone pillar. The pillar was shaped like a pointed cone, with a unique sculpture carved at the top, and its entire surface was engraved with countless intricate patterns. These patterns seemed to be some kind of writing, and an invisible and strange energy emanated from this peculiar pillar.
One of the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluos stepped forward, jumped directly to the base of the Sacred Pillar, and slowly addressed the Shrek Academy members.
"Welcome to the Sea within the Sea! I am one of the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluos, Seahorse Douluo. This is my Seahorse Sacred Pillar. If you want to participate in the assessment, it depends on whether you have the strength!"
The Sea God bestowed divine power upon the Seven Sacred Pillars, through which the God's will is disseminated. Any one of the pillars can test visiting Soul Masters. You will receive the Sea God's test here.
The tall Seahorse Douluo said that the Seahorse Douluo was quite handsome; at least among the seven Sacred Pillar Douluos, he was the most handsome.
As he spoke, a hazy blue halo appeared behind Seahorse Douluo, and then the Seahorse Sacred Pillar behind him suddenly lit up, with a beam of azure light running from the bottom all the way to the top of the Seahorse Sacred Pillar.
Centered on the top of the Seahorse Pillar, a ring of blue ripples suddenly spread out, like a curtain of light across the sea and above the water.
Since the Seahorse Pillar is about ten meters tall, the light curtain suspended above the sea is also ten meters high. Needless to say, this ten-meter distance limits flight capability and movement space.
Li Luochen smiled as he watched the Seahorse Douluo's actions.
"Classmates, His Majesty the Seahorse is testing you. Why don't you let His Majesty the Seahorse broaden his horizons?" Hearing Li Luochen's words, the Shrek Academy students, who had been eagerly preparing for the challenge, couldn't wait any longer.
Yu Tianxin took the initiative, transforming into a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex and rushing into the sea.
Seahorse Douluo muttered, "Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex? Interesting!"
On the other side, after seeing Yu Tianxin unleash the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, the Sea Dragon Douluo's own Sea Dragon Martial Soul was stirred up, and he felt a surge of passion to compete with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex!
However, he quickly suppressed the thought, since they were taking an assessment and there was no rush.
With a wave of his right hand, Seahorse Douluo caused the waves in front of him to surge up, reaching a height of ten meters, seemingly blocking all paths of advance. The boiling seawater roared with tremendous force, yet it did not overflow the boundaries of the Sea Within a Sea.
However, the dragon-man that Yu Tianxin had transformed into was unstoppable, and the waves could not stop him. Before long, he rushed up to the Seahorse Sacred Pillar platform.
Subsequently, Niu Dun, Yang Wu, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, Jiang Zhu, and Dai Mubai each displayed their unique abilities and rushed into the Sea within the Sea.
However, Jiangzhu used Oscar's Mirror Sausage, transforming into the appearance of a ghostly cat, and barely managed to get through.
Dai Mubai was having a bit of a hard time. His three amplification soul skills—White Tiger Protective Shield, White Tiger Vajra Transformation, and White Tiger Demon God Transformation—were struggling against the waves. He hid behind Niu Dun and slowly charged forward.
Several Saint Pillar Douluos were also marveling at the extraordinary strength of some of the young Soul Masters. They wondered how strong the remaining ones were.
Now, only Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, Ma Hongjun, Bai Chenxiang, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong remain on the beach.
Ma Hongjun smiled slightly. It was finally his time to show off. He liked a saying when he was reading novels in his spare time: "Heroes always make their appearance last" (Li Luochen's brainless novel, the kind where you just want to have fun).
Holding Bai Chenxiang's hand, Ma Hongjun flew into the Sea of the Sea at an extremely fast speed, faster than the waves could catch up with them. In just a few breaths, they arrived at the Seahorse Sacred Pillar Platform.
Oscar and Ning Rongrong held hands, a pair of wings appeared behind them, and they flew away. Swift Mushroom Sausage! It's still so useful.
Now only Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ye Lingling remain.
The three women simultaneously released their spirit rings.
Lone Goose, yellow, purple, black, black, red
Zhu Zhuqing, yellow, purple, black, red, black
Ye Lingling, yellowish-purple-purple-black-black
One outrageous spirit ring configuration after another emerged: a sixth spirit skill lasting 100,000 years? A seventh spirit ring, an eighth spirit ring lasting 100,000 years?
The seven Saint Pillar Douluos were dumbfounded. They had been titled Douluos for so many years and none of them had a 100,000-year spirit ring. The age limit of their ninth spirit rings was generally around 90,000 years.
This was because he obtained the most suitable soul ring by passing the assessment and receiving a divinely bestowed soul ring as a reward.
These people are truly terrifying!
After the three women released their spirit rings, Dugu Yan transformed into a golden-green dragon-human. In her dragon form, the aura she exuded immediately made Hailong Douluo and Yu Tianxin feel suppressed.
However, Yu Tianxin was used to being suppressed and was not seriously injured, while Hailong Douluo was shocked.
"Such a powerful dragon martial spirit?"
Dugu Yan leaped onto the platform in one swift step, followed by Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling. Ye Lingling also used the Mirror Sausage to transform into the Netherworld Cat and successfully reached the platform.
After reading it, Li Luochen immediately gave the story of "The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, Each Displaying Their Unique Abilities" a real-life manifestation!
