Seahorse Douluo slightly raised his chin, pointing to the raging waves, his tone revealing a hint of schadenfreude, as if he could already foresee the miserable state of Ning Liu and his group being battered by the giant waves.
However, to his surprise, Ning Liu did not show any seriousness or fear. Instead, he seemed to have heard a huge joke.
"puff……"
First came a soft chuckle that he couldn't help, followed by Ning Liu's unrestrained laughter.
"Ha ha ha ha--"
His laughter was hearty and loud, echoing amidst the roaring waves, carrying an indescribable sense of wildness and confidence.
The smug smile on Seahorse Douluo's face froze instantly, his brows furrowed, and he looked at Ning Liu with confusion. This kid, has he been scared out of his wits?
Ning Liu finished laughing, then waved his hand, his gaze sweeping over his companions with their various expressions before finally settling on Xiao Wu, his eyes full of encouragement and trust.
"Bribing the examiners? Seahorse Douluo, that's too narrow-minded."
He turned his head, winked at Seahorse Douluo, and smiled with a hint of mystery.
“We never bribe the examiners; we are just…friends of the examiners.”
Having said that, he ignored the bewildered Seahorse Douluo and addressed the crowd in a loud voice:
"What's there to be afraid of? It's just a bath, the water might be a little cool. Go on up, don't let the Sea God's kindness go to waste."
Want to take a shower?
Zhu Zhuqing and the others' lips twitched slightly. Looking at the gigantic waves that could pulverize steel, was this what they called taking a bath? It was clearly an attempt to slam them into the ground, making them impossible to pry out.
Without uttering a word, Yang Bubai, carrying the Heaven-Slaying Divine Spear, was the first to step forward.
His eyes were resolute, and without the slightest hesitation, he lightly touched the rocks with his toes and, with lightning speed, landed steadily on a heavy silver pillar.
With him taking the lead, Shui Bing'er, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing and others followed suit.
They each chose a pillar of heavy silver and stood firmly on it.
Finally, Xiao Wu took a deep breath, flicked her scorpion braid behind her head, and lightly leaped up.
However, she is the pillar at the very front.
The group stood on the cold, silver pillar, their tiny figures a stark contrast to the devastating waves behind them.
"Boom—!"
Just then, a new wave of giant waves was taking shape.
It was a terrifying wall of water hundreds of meters high, blotting out the sky and crashing down on them with the force of thunder!
Before the wave even arrived, the terrifying sense of oppression already made everyone gasp for breath.
Then, the spray whipped up by the strong wind lashed my face like a knife.
Even Yang Bubai, whose willpower was the strongest, had his muscles tense and his soul power running at its limit, preparing to withstand the attack head-on.
On the shore, Seahorse Douluo's lips curled into a cold smile once again.
It's here!
He silently recited it in his heart.
Let's see how you try to "cheat" this time!
However, just as the giant wave was about to engulf everything, another unexpected event occurred!
Standing on the silver pillar, Xiao Wu was suddenly enveloped in a soft yet undeniable golden halo.
The source of that light was the treasure in her heart called the "Heart of the Ocean".
Immediately afterwards, a pale golden trident mark flashed and disappeared between her eyebrows.
[A Divine Gift: The Gaze of the Sea God]!
Buzz—
An invisible, supreme, and sacred aura suddenly spread out from Xiao Wu!
The aura was not domineering, but gentle and warm, like a mother's embrace, instantly enveloping Yang Bubai, Shui Bing'er, and everyone else.
The raging, furious wave that was about to strike vanished the moment it touched the golden halo, like a primordial beast instantly tamed; all its violence and destructive aura dissipated in an instant.
The deafening roar transformed into a melodious and beautiful hymn.
The devastating impact transformed into a gentle, tender caress.
The hundreds-of-meters-high water wall did not collapse. Instead, in an incredible way, it transformed into billions of the purest and gentlest water elemental energies, like a golden rain, gently and densely sprinkling down on everyone.
"Um?"
Just as Yang Bubai was preparing to use all his strength to resist, he felt a warm current flow into his body.
The expected excruciating pain and shock did not come; instead, there was an indescribable feeling of comfort.
The energy gently seeped into his limbs and bones, nourishing his muscles, bones, and meridians, as if it were undergoing a profound baptism.
He could even clearly feel that his physical strength was slowly increasing in a stable and comfortable way.
"this……"
Shui Bing'er's beautiful, icy blue eyes were filled with shock.
As the owner of the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, she has the most acute perception of the water element.
She could sense that this was no longer just seawater, but a life-giving wellspring that had condensed the essence of the ocean!
This is no body tempering, this is clearly a divinely granted opportunity!
Zhu Zhuqing's tense body relaxed as she felt the warm current washing over her.
Dugu Yan was even more surprised to discover that this energy was not only strengthening her body, but also refining the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake within her body, making the venom more concentrated and pure.
Pain? Torture?
It does not exist.
For them, the Tidal Body Refinement had now become a top-tier energy baptism that lasted for twelve hours.
Everyone closed their eyes, greedily absorbing the enormous energy that had descended from the sky, enjoying the pleasure of their physical bodies and cultivation levels steadily improving.
shore.
The cold smile on Seahorse Douluo's face was still frozen at the corner of his mouth.
