[Previous episode]

I can teach you a cultivating method

that might help you become a soul master.

Ten Thousand Year Ginseng?

You’re brave to be making trouble for my Purple Pearl Pirates!

Let go of Xiao Wu.

The strongest is the leader, Purple Pearl.

She is a Level 68 Soul Emperor,

and has about 40 ships.

Teacher, don’t kill her!

We were attacked by the Chill Poison.

Even my Phoenix Flames couldn’t melt it.

Leader Pearl rescued us after.

If I win,

Xiao Wu stays with the pirates.

You want to catch me without using soul skills?

Fine, I’ll take that bet.

[Episode 167]

Time is almost up, we’re going to win for sure.

Wait!

We can do whatever we want with you!

Excuse me, excuse me.

Teacher, you’re finally back.

Little San, where is Purple Pearl?

He didn’t capture our leader, so he lost!

Young man, don’t be too arrogant.

The entire ocean is ours. Do you think you are that powerful?

Go!

Let me out!

It’s our leader!

Tang San, you bastard!

You conniving villain!

Let me out if you dare!

Let me out! Let me out!

What are you looking at?

The tiny person in there is Leader Purple Pearl?

This is the second skill of my Vast Sea and Universe Shield,

Universal Freezing Protection.

It can shrink whatever is trapped in it.

You lost.

So what if I lost? I admit it!

You are my boss from now on.

Boss...

Everyone, go back and rest.

Boss.

Our island is full of natural produce.

You can ask for whatever you want.

Little San.

Your disciple is pretty good.

I was able to survive this time

all thanks to him.

After you guys recover,

we will continue towards Haishen Island.

You are going to Haishen Island?

Yes.

Actually, I came from Haishen Island.

Ji Xiang,

you said earlier

that you came from Haishen Island?

Yes.

In order to stay on the island,

you have to pass the God of the Ocean’s test.

I was born without soul power

and wouldn’t have passed,

so my parents sent me here

under the care of Leader Purple Pearl.

Teacher,

you shouldn’t go.

Haishen Island is a sacred place where ocean soul masters worship the God of the Ocean.

Lots of foreign ocean soul masters have died during the test.

Much less land soul masters.

Even if you pass,

you have to stay and serve the God of the Ocean

for the rest of your life.

God of the Ocean?

(God of the Ocean.)

The God of the Ocean rules the entire ocean.

Ocean soul masters can control the immense power of the sea with his blessing.

In the hearts of all ocean soul masters,

the God of the Ocean is their single and only faith.

There are really

gods

in this world?

Yes! The God of the Ocean really exists.

Many ocean soul masters have seen the presence of the God of the Ocean before.

Does he test

by showing his presence?

No.

The God of the Ocean gives prophecies to the Head Flamen to conduct his tests.

So the test

still comes from a person.

It’s hard to describe.

Only those who go through it

understand.

This...

The Head Flamen is the messenger for the God of the Ocean,

and leads the strongest ocean soul masters

with his power.

(The Head Flamen...)

(It must be Bo Sai Xi, the Grand Ocean Master uncle mentioned.)

She can control the power of the ocean for her own use.

Unless you’re at Level 100,

you won’t be able to defeat her.

(Even the Level 99 Grand Soul Land Master,)

(Tang Chen, lost to her.)

(How likely is it)

(that we win against her?)

(But...)

Ji Xiang,

I understand your intentions.

But for us,

passing the God of the Ocean’s test is our challenge.

How we leave Haishen Island with our powers

is also a challenge.

I believe that the God of the Ocean does exist.

When someone’s power is more than anyone else’s,

they can be called a god.

This God of the Ocean is likely

an ocean soul master that broke the limit,

who can control all power in the world

and is more powerful than anyone...

As a soul master,

this is also our goal.

Yes.

Yes.

That’s right, boss!

Let me take you.

The Purple Pearl is truly great,

much faster than the Sea Devil.

Of course, this is my ship.

But I can only take you here.

Any closer, and I will upset the God of the Ocean.

I have to think about my brothers too.

I understand.

Boss.

There are many strong ocean soul beasts near the island,

and several hundred Devil White Sharks.

You will definitely be attacked if you approach by ship.

What are you going to do?

Devil White Sharks?

[Soul Land]

Devil White Sharks are the fiercest ocean soul beast.

Even if only a millennium old,

they can fight against decade millennium ocean soul beasts.

The king of the Devil White Sharks

used to be the God of the Ocean’s own mount,

a century millennium Protection Beast.

Even though the Protection Beast is not as big as the Magic Whale King of the Deep Sea,

it’s much faster.

No one can escape

its attack.

Then how will we get there?

Devil White Sharks sometimes go out to hunt together.

But no one knows its habits.

We don’t know if they happen to be out hunting today.

We can’t only rely on luck.

But we can try this.

Boss, if you really run into Devil White Sharks,

never hurt any of them,

or else you will be attacked by all of them.

Okay.

We’re almost there.

We should get going.

Leader Purple Pearl.

You don’t need to take our bet seriously.

Thank you for your hospitality these past few days.

I have already passed Tang Clan’s secret skills to Ji Xiang.

Please continue taking care of him.

Don’t worry!

Teacher...

Become a real soul master.

Boss! I accept that I lost!

Since I accepted you as my boss,

you will be my boss forever!

You have to come back alive!

Ji Xiang,

they will come back alive,

right?

Yes.

Retract the anchor, set sail!

What is this?

Oh, no,

there are decade millennium ocean soul beasts up ahead!

Even though the Dragon Boat is surprisingly quick,

it can’t stand up to a decade millennium ocean soul beast.

We have to use the Vast Sea and Universe Shield’s invisibility

to try and avoid a fight.

Vast Sea and Universe Shield, First Skill,

Vast Sea Protection!

Shush.

Who knew that the Shield also protects against water?

There’s no way for the Dragon Boat to keep moving forward.

Look.

Let’s walk along the ocean floor.

[Next episode]

That’s the scent of a Grand Soul Land Master.

You won’t be able to pass the God of the Ocean’s test

for land soul masters.

Devil White Sharks.

I’ve never heard of Shrek School.

At least make up something convincing if you’re going to lie.

Why do you reject everyone that comes?

Only those who come before the Seahorse Totem can take the test.

If you act rash while young,

you’ll pay with your own life.

Haishen Island’s Protector of the Seven Sacred Totems.

Based on your current skills, you will die for sure.

You’re not welcome on Haishen Island.

Hurry and leave.
