Chapter 168 Finally Obtaining the Power of the Sea God_2

Qin Xiao took a few steps and came to a stop.

Whoosh!

The Sea Horse Douluo did not hesitate; the Sea Horse Sacred Leader was activated, and a blue column of light enveloped Qin Xiao.

Then, the color of the column rapidly changed and almost instantly turned black.

The Sea Horse Douluo's pupils shrank suddenly, and he thought to himself, "Stay calm, stay calm. This kid could lead everyone directly through the Sea Within the Sea, which was very impressive. It's normal for the Sea God to give him a black-level assessment. It's just uncertain how many tests he can pass..."

However, in reality.

The changes occurring on Qin Xiao took the Sea Horse Douluo by complete surprise once again.

"The color changing hasn't stopped!"

"This, this, this..."

He was so nervous he couldn't even speak coherently, but in his mind, he recalled the color that was said to be beyond black, red.

And red, he had never seen anyone trigger it while presiding over the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar.

"No way."

"Am I going to witness the birth of a legend today?"

"Does this kid really have such heaven-defying talent?"

The Sea Horse Douluo felt his heart almost leaping into his throat.

And at that moment.

The Sea Horse Sacred Pillar seemed to tremble, and he quickly turned to look. He saw the demonic patterns that had covered the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar and been dyed black instantly change color, becoming a dazzling crystal red.

Following that, a beam of red light burst from the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar and shot straight into the sky!

Under the rendering of the blood-red light, the clear azure sky seemed as if it had been draped with a thin layer of red gauze.

"My God, look!"

"What's going on, why is such an anomaly happening on Sea God's Island?"

"..."

On Sea God's Island, thousands of gazes nearly simultaneously turned towards the sky, accompanied by successive exclamations of shock.

Some of them had lived most of their lives on Sea God's Island without ever seeing such a bizarre scene.

Elsewhere, six figures clad in black robes, each standing in front of different style pillars, also simultaneously looked up at the sky.

In their eyes was the same expression, astonishment! At the same time, a word came to their minds, "Top-level-seven-tests."

In the center of Sea God's Island, a peculiar temple echoed a faint voice.

"After so many years, has someone finally come to inherit the position of the Great Priest?"

The speaker was a woman.

Her beauty was unparalleled, her perfect figure wrapped in a red dress.

At this moment, a hint of faint surprise and joy flashed across her pretty face.

She had been waiting for this day for many years.

Meanwhile.

In front of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, Ning Rongrong, and Dugu Yan were also startled awake by the phenomenon emerging from Qin Xiao.

It couldn't be helped; the disturbance was too great.

"What's happening to Qin Xiao? Why is his color red when we all have black?"

Ning Rongrong's pretty face was full of tension.

Although Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and Dugu Yan did not speak, they all wore solemn expressions.

They were all waiting for the Sea Horse Douluo to give an explanation.

"It's so astonishing, truly astonishing. To think that one of your companions could receive a top-level assessment!" The Sea Horse Douluo's voice still contained his unstoppable amazement.

"Top-level assessment, what does that mean? Is it more difficult than ours?"

Ning Rongrong immediately retorted.

The Sea Horse Douluo did not look at Ning Rongrong but reverently said to Qin Xiao, "Unlike the black level assessment, if your companion passes the top-level assessment, he will be the successor to the Great Priest, the future manager of Sea God's Island."

Upon hearing this explanation from the Sea Horse Douluo, everyone understood.

"What!"

Ning Rongrong exclaimed, "Are you saying that Qin Xiao might become the Great Priest of Sea God's Island?"

She was, to put it mildly, shocked.

She remembered Qin Xiao always saying that bringing everyone was for the experience.

And now, while they were still the ones undergoing training, Qin Xiao might become the ruler of Sea God's Island.

The Sea Horse Douluo suddenly said, "Little girl, did you perhaps misunderstand what I said earlier?"

"What do you mean?" Ning Rongrong was somewhat puzzled.

"My meaning is that your companion will definitely become a manager on Sea God's Island, not just that there's a high probability..."

Ning Rongrong cocked her head and asked, "That doesn't seem right, does it? The top-level assessment is tougher than the Black Level test, so shouldn't the top-level assessment be more difficult than the Black Level one?"

Sea Horse Douluo shook his head and said, "Of course not. The overall difficulty of the top seven tests is not just a notch above the Black Level six tests, but every time a top-level assessment occurs, it signifies that it can be completed."

At this point, Sea Horse Douluo increased his emphatic tone, "No matter how difficult, it will definitely be a success!"

"Oh, I see..." Ning Rongrong muttered, "I also want to take on a top-level test."

Sea Horse Douluo: "..."

Do you think top-level assessments are wild vegetables by the roadside? If you want one, you just get one?

Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran, and the others, hearing Ning Rongrong's words, were also rendered speechless.

Do you really think Sea God's Island is the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect, allowing you to do as you please?

However, at the next moment, everyone present, including Sea Horse Douluo, had a sudden change of expression.

Boom!

A loud rumble echoed through the sky above Sea God's Island.

Everyone's eyes focused on the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, which was the source of the commotion.

Suddenly, the blood-red light column began to expand. In the blink of an eye, it had expanded more than tenfold.

The ground trembled, and the sea boiled like hot water.

The pressure from the towering hundred-meter-high waves was nearly suffocating.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... Six gigantic blood-red light columns rose to the sky and converged with the blood-red light emanating from the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar.

"What, what's happening?"

Witnessing such a terrifying scene, Ning Rongrong and the others were all stunned.

"Ah, this..."

"I'm not very clear either."

Sea Horse Douluo was equally shocked.

Having lived for so long, he had never seen such a phenomenon before.

No.

Not even in the historical records of Sea God's Island had such a change ever been mentioned.

At that moment, within the intertwining blood-red light, another anomaly occurred, as a dazzling golden light descended from the sky to the extreme.

Heaven and earth seemed to pause at that moment, leaving the supremely bright and brilliant light to fall upon Qin Xiao.

The gold light enveloped his body, giving Qin Xiao a strange sensation, as if he was being enlightened. His entire being felt transparent, and a cool and indescribable comfort washed over him, sweeping away all his fatigue of recent days.

But this power must be delicious, right?

Yes, delicious...

This thought was conveyed to him by the Thunder Emperor Spirit.

"Brother, do you really think I brought you here for a leisurely stroll?"

"The current Sea God's power is refined beyond what it was before by who knows how many times, so go ahead and build it up!"

"Eat your fill."

Qin Xiao muttered to himself internally.

He believed that the Thunder Emperor Spirit could understand his meaning.

As for whether absorbing a large amount of the Sea God Divine Power would prevent him from undertaking Sea God's Nine Quests, he hadn't considered it.

In other words, he didn't care.

He came here to absorb a large amount of Sea God's power, to restore his Martial Soul to normal, so that he could possess strong power again.

"Good!"

He didn't know if it was a hallucination or an illusion, but Qin Xiao felt as if he heard such a response.

With a thought, his consciousness entered his Dantian Qihai, and he saw the mysterious Human-shaped Martial Soul begin to move.

The mysterious Human-shaped Martial Soul in his hand began to form a series of strange seals. Immediately afterward, the golden Sea God's power that lingered within Qin Xiao's body, as if beckoned, converged toward the mysterious Human-shaped Martial Soul.

Gradually, a golden light the size of a grain of rice began to take shape before its body, slowly coalescing.

Qin Xiao unconsciously frowned. Wasn't this speed too slow?

As he shifted his thought, Qin Xiao felt a slight warmth on his forehead.

"Hey, look at Qin Xiao's forehead, why is there a blue light?"

Ning Rongrong, who had been closely monitoring Qin Xiao, suddenly exclaimed.

Sea Horse Douluo also looked over, surprised, and said, "That's a trident mark? That's the Sea God's emblem!"

However.

With the appearance of the blue Trident mark, the golden light column became more than ten times thicker than before.
