Chapter 285 Emerging from Seclusion, the Limit!
(ps: First, let's talk about the author Black Monkey's progress. I completed the game perfectly on my first playthrough. I had to fight Yang Jian, who was a bit in jail, six times with only a sliver of health left, and I won against the Great Sage five times with his body in a weakened state.)
Currently, I've defeated all the bosses on my second playthrough in one go.
Dugu Yan completed the first of the Nine Trials of the Sea God, causing a tremor throughout the entire Sea God Mountain.
. . . . . .
The Realm of Gods, Temple of the Sea God
At this time, Poseidon, the god of the sea, was keeping a close eye on Dugu Yan's assessment. The assessment he gave Dugu Yan was all set by him directly.
The assessment was based on his divine sense, which detected the talents and strengths of each examinee. To be precise, Dugu Yan's first test was enhanced by him.
Poseidon originally thought that 333 steps would be enough to complete the first test, but he found that Dugu Yan was almost a Title Douluo and had an extremely powerful Dragon Clan Martial Soul. He wanted to see where Dugu Yan's limit was.
According to his plan, Dugu Yan would pass the test as long as she surpassed three or four hundred steps. However, he did not expect that Dugu Yan would reach six hundred steps in one go and cultivate there.
Dugu Yan possesses exceptional strength and talent, along with a strong affinity for water attributes. As a chosen divine examiner, Poseidon is confident that his examiner is perfectly suited to his divine position.
"Hehe, I underestimated this girl. It seems that the later tests won't be too difficult for her. Only that little whale is a bit tricky, but that kid should be able to handle it."
So what's this kid doing in front of my Sea God Temple? He hasn't made a sound. Is he using the immense pressure from my Sea God's Light to fuse his Soul Ring into his Martial Soul?
That's interesting. I did the same thing back then, turning the trident into a divine weapon. But I was almost a god back then, how old is this kid?
Looks like I'm getting old and out of touch with the times. Starting with my first spirit ring, it's been 100,000 years. I'm definitely not a normal person.
"Back in my day, I only had two 100,000-year spirit rings. How come all the young spirit masters these days are so powerful? Are 100,000-year spirit beasts so easy to kill?"
Poseidon began to contemplate life.
(ps: Poseidon, the god of the sea, became a god thousands of years ago. He was once an extremely powerful sea soul master. He was also a soul master, and his talent was undoubtedly high, but the age of his soul rings was probably not high at that time.)
It's quite normal for Poseidon to have two 100,000-year-old weapons when he was young, since he hunted them himself. I think it's reasonable that he couldn't kill a Quasi-Soul Saint.
After Poseidon broke through the limits, he unified the ocean and became a god through faith.
. . . . . .
Poseidon Island, Poseidon Mountain.
[The Sea God's Nine Trials, Second Trial: Break Through the Ring Blockade. Without killing any sea spirit beasts, break through the blockade on the ring-shaped sea and reach the other side. No spirit ring skills may be used.]
The trident mark on Dugu Yan's forehead flashed, and she understood the content of the second test.
Meanwhile, the other students at Shrek Academy also underwent the assessment.
[The second test: Break through the circular blockade. Without killing any sea spirit beasts, break through the blockade in the circular sea and reach the other side.]
In the second test, everyone was in agreement.
The goal is to break through the ring-shaped blockade, but not to kill any of the sea spirit beasts, which they find somewhat hard to understand.
On the mainland, the hatred between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts is immense, but it seems that Seagod Island is a bit different.
Boom—
Just as everyone was pondering, a loud bang suddenly came from the top of Poseidon Mountain.
A tremendous aura emanated from it!
Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ye Lingling's eyes lit up; they knew Li Luochen had emerged from seclusion!
Poseidon's eyes flashed, and she released her spiritual power, only to find that she could not even detect the depth of Li Luochen's aura.
Poseidon was certain that this young man had successfully broken through to the Limit Douluo level and directly reached the Quasi-God level, far exceeding her normal level.
Poseidon didn't believe she could defeat Li Luochen, even with the power of the Sea God. At the thousandth step of Sea God Mountain, Li Luochen stood up; he hadn't moved his body in a long time and needed to stretch.
At this moment, Li Luochen was holding a scarlet stick in his hand.
It was Li Luochen's original martial spirit design: the Dragon Pattern Staff!
When Li Luochen fused the spirit ring into his martial soul, he restored the martial soul to its original form. Of course, the attributes he acquired from absorbing the spirit ring remained.
The difference between this and the original dragon-patterned staff is that the original dragon pattern had no color; it was just a simple pattern.
Now it features a nine-colored dragon pattern, depicting a majestic dragon with a body like a long snake, a head like a qilin, a tail like a carp, long whiskers, antlers like a deer, and five claws, coiled on the dragon-patterned staff.
Unlike the coiled dragon staff, the nine-colored dragon is not coiled or encircled, but rather carved on it.
"Hmm, as expected, it can't be stored inside. Once it's successfully forged into a divine artifact, it can no longer be placed in the Martial Soul Space."
However, by using my current cultivation level and divine sense to enhance the spatial attributes of my right-hand martial soul, I should be able to store divine artifacts.
After all, it was transformed from his own martial soul. It's just that the martial soul space in his hand cannot support the divine artifact. With some enhancement, it should be possible to achieve this.
Since it has returned to its original form and transformed back into the Dragon Pattern Staff, and has become a divine weapon, then let it be called the Dragon Pattern Divine Staff.
Li Luochen weighed the dragon-patterned divine staff in his hand. It was quite heavy, weighing a full hundred tons. To put that in perspective, the Trident of Poseidon only weighed fifty-four tons, while Li Luochen's divine weapon had reached a hundred tons.
Moreover, Li Luochen felt that the Dragon Pattern Divine Staff was not so simple. Its aura was just beginning to take shape, no less than that of the Trident of the Sea God. It should no longer be an ordinary divine artifact, but a quasi-super divine artifact.
Because the God of Asura often gave him special treatment, Li Luochen had sensed the power of the super artifact, the Asura Divine Sword. A year ago, he also sensed the power of the Trident of the Sea God, which was inferior to the Asura Divine Sword.
It probably didn't reach the level of a super artifact. It's likely that Poseidon, the god of the sea, didn't deliberately try to advance and was just living a carefree life in the divine realm, waiting to escape.
It was Tang San who later pushed the Sea God Trident to the level of a super artifact, and he even pushed the Sea God's position to the level of a God King.
After the Spirit Hall fell, Tang San collected the faith of the entire continent, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to elevate the divine positions and artifacts to the level of God-King and Super Artifacts.
Everything he did was probably to contrast with the God of Destruction, after all, the God of Destruction was a veteran God-King who possessed the super artifact, the Scepter of Destruction, and so did his wife, the God of Life.
Tang San probably hasn't been in the God Realm for long, but he's already thinking about how to climb to the position of the number one leader. If he can't climb, he'll just abdicate and run away. Whether he succeeds or fails, he won't lose out. What a clever plan!
Li Luochen was just guessing, of course. He was very glad that his martial soul had successfully broken through to the quasi-super artifact level. Unfortunately, he had lost all the soul skills he possessed.
However, he can restart the Six Forms of Battle. Since leaving the City of Slaughter, Li Luochen has not delayed the cultivation of his self-created soul skill, the Six Forms of Battle.
However, his advancement was too rapid later on. It was fine to create his own soul skills and have fun with others, but his decisive moves still relied on the fusion of rings.
Now, Li Luochen plans to create his own divine staff technique, evolving the Six Forms of Fighting into the Nine Forms of Fighting.
Nine extreme numbers, nine techniques combined into ten, ten is the ultimate and fatal blow.
"Sigh, I'll think about it later. I should go see my family. I've been in seclusion for so long, I don't even know how many months have passed, and I wonder what level Yanzi has reached."
Li Luochen appeared in front of the Shrek Academy students in an instant.
"Hey everyone, it's been a long time!"
