[Previous episode] The strong survive in this world,

but I get stronger in the face of death.

Fourth, Defense! Six, Advance!

I have limited soul power to give. You need to move quickly.

No matter how tough the challenge, I will never give up!

You must bear the weight of the crown to wear the crown.

Zhu Qing,

are you ready?

Even if it takes me a lifetime,

I will restore that light!

There are only four hours left.

Heir to the God of the Ocean,

can you finish the test in time?

[Episode 176]

(Even though its easier to break the pressure with the God Killer Domain,)

(I can’t recover soul power with it.)

(I can’t use it unless I must.)

(For now, I can only use the Blue Silver Domain)

(to get as high as possible.)

Since we’ve passed the test, we won’t feel the pressure anymore.

Let’s go up together

and accompany Little San to the top.

Okay!

We’re already at step 220.

With the help of Rong Rong,

my soul power is still at its highest.

But I’m feeling tired already.

What’s happening?

The squeezing on my body is extremely painful,

and I’m losing soul power in multiples.

For my Top-tier Level Eight Test,

I had to pass 228 steps.

But starting from step 222,

the last six steps

were as scary as hell.

Tang San.

The path you have to climb next

is even more dangerous.

Little San.

This is my fifth soul skill, Limit Breaking Green Sausage.

It can instantly increase your soul power by 30%

for three minutes.

But you will be weak for three days after having one,

since it harms your vitality.

Also,

you can only use one per month.

Blue Silver Domain Evolved Skill, Majestic Nature!

He was able to use his domain power

to capture all of the plants on Haishen Mountain in one instant.

The plants on Haishen Mountain

bathe in the Light of the God of the Ocean all year round.

They have more energy than normal plants.

When tens of thousands of plants

put one-tenth of their energy together,

the energy will be huge.

Tang San.

Use this opportunity well.

Step 320!

Little Ao!

The Limit Breaking Green Sausages is to save your life in a pinch!

If you eat too much,

your body will break.

Little San.

Are you sure?

For Xiao Wu,

I can’t stop!

Brother San is risking his own life

to protect Xiao Wu.

There are ten steps left.

Darn it!

I can’t move my body anymore.

Am I going to fail?

Xiao Wu.

Fourth Skill,

Invincible Golden Shield.

Nothingness.

Explosive Eight Flinging!

What is Xiao Wu doing?

With the protection of Invincible Golden Shield,

Little San is fine.

And Xiao Wu is now in Nothingness,

nothing around her can affect her.

The Eight Flinging only works on Little San

so there won’t be any counteractive from the Light of the God of the Ocean.

Two more steps to go.

(Brother.)

(Even if I fail my Top-tier Level One Test)

(and have to die,)

(I will help you finish the First Test!)

No!

(This time,)

(we have to say goodbye.)

What happened?

A sense of coldness and death.

This is like hell in white.

This is the God Killer Domain’s Evolved Skill,

Demon Hell.

Sura Death Formation.

Within the Demon Hell, the intention to kill

will solidify.

Even the Light of the God of the Ocean

will be completely destroyed.

(Xiao Wu.)

(No!)

(If you die,)

(nothing in this world matters anymore.)

(That sacrifice)

(has become my regret for life.)

(I said I would protect you,)

(silly girl.)

Brother!

Brother!

Don’t scare me!

[Soul Land]

Brother San’s wounds are quickly healing.

Tang San

has passed the test to pass through

double the amount of the Light of the God of the Ocean.

Not giving up on his friends in face of danger,

quick to react in extreme circumstances,

decisive,

[Tang San, Blue Silver Emperor,] persistent, and wise.

[War Soul Saint of the Controlling Branch]

[Hao Tian Hammer, Storm Attack Branch War Soul Saint] The first test is over.

[Soul power: Lv. 76] Closeness to the God of the Ocean increased by 5%.

Xiao Wu.

Never giving up

and willing to sacrifice herself for her loved one.

God of the Ocean’s first test is completed.

[Xiao Wu, Soft Bone Rabbit] There will be superimposed rewards.

[War Soul Master of the Storm Attack Branch] [Soul power: unknown]

Great!

You two did so great!

-Brother San, Xiao Wu. -Little San.

-Congratulations! -What is the superimposed reward?

Once Tang San finishes the God of the Ocean Level Nine Test,

you will find out.

Congratulations on passing the first test,

but the harder challenges will follow.

Never forget the importance of teamwork.

Yes.

Zhu Zhu Qing,

Ning Rong Rong.

I will now give you a God-given Soul Ring.

Senior.

May I ask you two questions?

Does the God-given Soul Ring

come from your power

or the God of the Ocean’s power?

The God of the Ocean’s power, of course.

This is a miracle.

Only when someone takes a Black Level Test,

a God-given Soul Ring

will be given by the God of the Ocean.

Thank you, Senior.

Also,

what is the “closeness to the God of the Ocean”?

I can’t answer that for you.

But it doesn’t mean that you will achieve 100% closeness

after you pass the God of the Ocean Level Nine Test.

100% closeness is what everyone

on Haishen Island is anticipating.

(100%?)

(Can I get there?)

Keep up the effort.

I believe you will be successful.

The first test is finally over.

I’m so tired.

We have had a tough day.

Let’s have a good rest.

Zhu Qing, Rong Rong, congrats.

Tell us about your seventh soul skill!

My seventh skill is Jiubao True Form.

Besides increasing the effect of all my soul skills by 80%,

I will only need half the soul power

to use my soul skills when in Jiubao True Form.

Also,

my Simultaneous Multi-control is stronger.

This really is a top-level martial soul.

The effect of the martial soul form is top-notch!

Little Ao has a chance to get a God-given Soul Ring as well.

His martial soul form will definitely be a surprise!

But

I can’t use my seventh soul skill.

I can use my seventh soul skill,

Civet Cat True Form.

The second test begins.

The second test,

break through

the Round Ocean’s blockade.

[Black Level Five Test] Break through the Round Ocean’s blockade

and reach the other shore

without killing any ocean soul beasts.

I have one more limitation.

I can’t use any soul skills of my soul rings.

My soul rings have been sealed.

Well...

I mean,

-it’s easy! -Easy?

Did you all forget about Brother San’s Vast Sea and Universe Shield?

If we can’t use soul skills,

we’ll just hide and sneak our way through.

That’s right.

I thought of that

but the Vast Sea and Universe Shield

is under the control of a kind of special power.

I can’t activate it.

The second test must be tougher than the first.

I’ll have a try first

and see how strong the soul beasts in the Round Ocean are?

No.

The situation is unclear.

We shouldn’t be rash.

We can wait and see.

We have one year, after all.

But can we afford to wait?

We’ve already been on Haishen Island for a year.

I wonder how things are on the continent.

Right!

Especially the Seven Clans Re-selection Contest.

I made it after all.

Dear...

[Chief of Black Tiger Tribe]

[Chief of Hornet Tribe]

[Chief of Sacred Dragon Tribe]

[Chief of Wind Sword Tribe]

[Chief of Fire Panther Tribe]

[Chief of Steenbok Tribe]

It’s alright.

Ever since the three elders were erased,

the Elephant Armored Tribe is now the most powerful tribe.

After the re-selection,

the Elephant Armored Tribe

will be one of the new three elders for sure.

[Next episode] Send my orders.

Three days from now,

the Seven Clans Re-selection Contest

officially begins.

For the Seven Clans Re-selection Contest,

ten clans have been selected already.

The second test will only be harder than the first.

There is a special power in the water, stopping me

and consuming my soul power.

Brother San doesn’t have any advantage to attack in the water,

and we are not allowed

to kill any ocean soul beasts in this test.

If any soul beast enacts a lethal attack on us,

we won’t be able to get out alive.

Is there better training than this?
