Led by Seahorse Douluo, the group passed through a dense coconut grove and arrived at a peculiar sea area.
Before you lies a circular inland sea, its waters a deep, clear blue, so clear that you can even see the colorful corals and schools of fish swimming leisurely on the seabed.
The sea was as calm as a mirror, with only ripples when a gentle breeze blew by, creating a serene and beautiful scene.
In the center of the ring-shaped sea is a small, isolated island, and the place where they stand is opposite that island.
"Is this the venue for the second test?"
Dugu Yan peeked out, her face full of ease, "It doesn't look difficult at all, it's just swimming across, right?"
"Don't let your guard down."
Zhu Zhuqing offered a reminder.
"The Nine Trials of the Sea God could never be so simple."
Shui Bing'er and the others nodded.
The Seahorse Douluo, who had led everyone here, wore a meaningful smile. He cleared his throat and announced loudly:
"Your second test is called [Breakthrough, Ring Blockade]."
"Test requirements: Without harming any soul beasts or soul masters in the sea, start from here and reach the island on the other side to pass."
He paused, his gaze lingering on Xiao Wu for a moment.
"Among them, Xiao Wu, one of the examiners of the Nine Trials of the Sea God, is not allowed to use any soul skills during the process, and must also withstand my soul power pressure!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed slightly.
Can't use Soul Skills?
For a Soul Master, this is undoubtedly like cutting off one's own arm.
In particular, Xiao Wu has a skill: teleportation!
Xiao Wu herself didn't care too much. Instead, she clenched her fist, feeling the closeness to the sea within her body, full of confidence.
Seahorse Douluo seemed to be in a rather good mood, observing the solemn expressions on everyone's faces.
Perhaps because of the huge benefits brought by Ning Liu and his group at the previous auction, he said a few more words, which was unusual for him.
"Hehe, considering that Sect Master Ning has established a good relationship with Seagod Island, I can give you some information for free."
A subtle smile curved the corners of his mouth.
"In addition to ordinary sea spirit beasts, thousands of thousand-year-old spirit beasts called 'arrow-shaped fish' also live in this ring-shaped sea. They are incredibly fast, have tremendous impact, and travel in large groups, making them extremely difficult to get rid of."
Thousand-year-old soul beasts? Thousands of them?
Shui Yue'er and Dugu Yan's faces had turned somewhat pale.
How can we fight like this? The key is that we can't hurt them.
"Of course, this is just an appetizer."
Not satisfied with the excitement, Seahorse Douluo slowly dropped a bombshell.
"The true guardian is the overlord of the sea, a 100,000-year-old soul beast—the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, Little White."
The moment the words left his mouth, the calm sea was suddenly torn apart!
"Splash—!"
A huge white figure burst out of the water, stirring up towering waves.
The enormous body drew a graceful arc in the air, and then, to everyone's astonishment, a flash of white light appeared, and the giant shark transformed into a human-shaped woman, gracefully landing beside Seahorse Douluo.
She had long, dazzling silver hair that cascaded casually over her shoulders, her skin was as white as snow, and her features were as exquisite as a work of art sculpted from ice and snow.
A pair of icy blue eyes, filled with wildness and arrogance, scanned Ning Liu and his group, as if scrutinizing their prey.
"humans,"
She spoke up, "The seahorse is right. If you want to get through, you'll have to get past me first. Let me make it clear beforehand, I won't show any mercy!"
She licked her lips, a glint in her eyes, clearly a warmonger.
An opponent with a lifespan of 100,000 years, and in the vast ocean, which is the opponent's absolute home turf, plus the rule that you cannot harm the opponent...
The difficulty of this test is simply hellish.
The ease on Xiao Wu's face also faded.
She could sense that the pressure this woman named Xiaobai exerted on her, if they were in the water, might be greater than that of the Titan Ape Erming.
Just then, Ning Liu took two steps forward as if nothing had happened.
He didn't look at Seahorse Douluo, nor did he pay attention to the tense reactions of the crowd. Instead, he looked at the Demon Soul Great White Shark King with great interest.
"A 100,000-year-old demonic soul great white shark..."
Ning Liu pursed her lips, as if she were commenting on some product.
"Your cultivation level is not bad, but your qi and blood are somewhat weak, and your foundation seems to have been damaged."
Xiao Bai's icy blue pupils contracted sharply, and her sharp gaze instantly locked onto Ning Liu:
"What do you know?"
Her reaction was extreme; beneath her arrogant demeanor, there seemed to be a barely perceptible hint of excitement and... hatred.
Ning Liu smiled.
"I don't know much."
Ning Liu flipped his wrist.
A translucent, exquisite herb, resembling a piece of fine jade, suddenly appeared in his palm.
The moment the herbs appeared, a refreshing fragrance instantly filled the air, and the pure life force and water element energy made the surrounding air seem sweet.
It is indeed a rare and precious product from ten thousand years ago—Narcissus Jade Skin and Bone!
"But I happen to know that this thing can heal your hidden injuries and also allow your cultivation to reach another level."
"How about we treat it as toll money?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaobai froze.
Her icy blue eyes were fixed intently on the narcissus jade bone in Ning Liu's palm.
My breathing became rapid instantly.
Arrogance? Fighting spirit?
Everything was shattered in that instant!
Her brother's death is a pain that will never fade in her heart.
