Eight Trial, Father and Son Battle

Tang San was standing there, looking up at the sky, his emotions at the moment was a mess, with him barely holding on.

How could it not be?

His wife's body was getting worse as time goes by, he had her recorded this video to give to their son, to give his wife hope!

He hoped this would at least alleviate her stress and increase her health, even if it was by a little.

"How sick is she?" Questioned Tang Wulin with his gaze still on the spot where Xiao Wu faded.

"Her vitality is damage, making it hard for her to do much with her losing most of her power and needing some help to move around." Tang San said as he gazes fondly at his son.

"This is all because of me?"

"Of course Lin Lin, even though she barely spent time with you. You are still very important, the amount of guilt she has is also that great."Said Tang San with a sigh while Tang Wulin only nodded his head.

"Linlin. The time left for this recording is gradually coming to an end, listen to me carefully. This is the key to whether our family can be reunited." Tang San said as his emotion began to calm down with Tang Wulin moving his gaze to him.

"The Sea God Trident is an Ultra Divine, even in the god world. It is a powerful artifact that can be compared to the Asura Sword. The Sea God position isn't inferior to God-King as a first-class god. The most significant reason for this is because of the Trident of the Sea. "

"Back in my era, I went through the Sea Gods Nine Examination, experiencing many hardships before finally being recognized by the Trident. Similar to me, you must follow my path, although the assessment will be different to gain the trident full power."Said Tang San with a faint smile as he recalls the planning he had to do.

"This eighth test was set up for you to be the next Sea God and with this test being called the father and son battle. In a moment, you will be facing me before I become a sea god, my strongest state before becoming something more than a mortal. Only by defeating me will you be able to get the true recognition of Poseidon Trident."

Tang Wulin's eyes shined when he heard he will have a chance of fighting his father. The person who was known as the greatest soul master, the pinnacle of his generation and miracle worker.

The number of titles that Tang San has gained and been given throughout these past thousands of years couldn't be counted.

It wasn't amiss to say that people consider Tang San as the strongest Soul Master.

And they wouldn't be that wrong, as even with the improvement with technology and soul masters.

It still couldn't match the inheritance of a God, especially one that almost killed Tang San countless amount of times.

"Another important reason why I left the trident in here, is that I hope you will use it as a relay point so I can find you. With this, I won't have to waste time trying to find you through this vast universe and can come back fast. Which is it's extremely important to protect it and get its real recognition."

"Can I use it to find you? Or at least pinpoint your location?"

"You should be able, although whether you can reach us is a different problem altogether. But you can figure that out when you reach the God-Level, Old Tang should be able to give you some advice."Said Tang San causing Tang Wulin to nod his head.

"I'm sure Old Tang already told you about the true reason for this trial, where you can only gain trident recognition but not the Sea God position. I can't do this because there is no Divine Realm as the foundation to help you grow into the position. I am too far away and the Sea God position core can't stay in the trident. Because of this, I weaken my control over the Sea God Trident, allowing you to take it as your own."

"Are you saying you won't need it? Your situation doesn't seem any better than mine?" Tang Wulin questioned with a raised brow causing Tang San to chuckle.

"Don't worry about me; I already have a back-up plan for the loss of the Trident. Besides, any help that I can provide to increase your safety, is something I will gladly do."Said Tang San with Tang Wulin eyes slightly widens before muttering an okay.

"Sadly the trident won't be able to make you into a God; it would require your effort and way to break through the limit. But I have full confidence you can do this as you have the help of some amazing beings with you."Said Tang San as his gaze narrowed for an instance as if he was trying to see through Tang Wulin's body.

"The Golden Dragon King seals can't help me with that?" Questioned Tang Wulin with a raised brow, while he could find other options, it didn't hurt to have it as one.

"The way the seals are set up, you would need more than it to breakthrough the God Level. Of course, they would be very helpful to you when you become a God, making you even stronger than any god on the same level."Said Tang San causing Tang Wulin to narrow his eyes.

"Just how strong was the Golden Dragon King?"

"The Golden Dragon King strength was something truly terrifying for just one being. From just my experience of fighting it back in the Divine Realm, you would need at least three God-Kings to defeat it."Said Tang San as a light flash in his eyes.

"Three God-Kings? Is it that strong?"

"I already said that the Golden Dragon King and Silver Dragon King came from the Dragon God when it was split. And how it was sealed in the Divine Realm while the Silver Dragon King was able to escape."

"You did."

"These two dragons after their split while only at First Class God level strength had the overall power of a God-King. But the Golden Dragon King after leeching most of the Divine Power in the god realm was able to become a God-King. With its God-King cultivation, terrifying body and regeneration which could cause even me to sigh in jealously. The Golden Dragon King at that time was an existence that could dominate any God King in a one and one fight. With it needing the overall combine strength of Five God-Kings to fully kill it."Said Tang San with a profound sigh.

He knew if it wasn't for the skill he and the other two used, where it combined all of three of their strength.

As well as the core of the God of Destruction and Goddess of Life, it would be almost impossible to kill that dragon.

"The Golden Dragon Blood will extend your life infinitely, even though you aren't a god. So you don't need to be rushing to become one, but you must take heed when your opening the seals. From the fifteenth seal, you will have a hard time trying to open the seals as the plane will be trying its best to suppress you from doing it. I'm am sure you have noticed it?"

Tang Wulin nodded his head, as he did feel that terrifying suppression after he opened the fourteen seals.

It was as if the whole world was starring down at him, intending to crush him if he tried pushing open the next seal.

"For you to fully absorb the Golden Dragon King power, you will need to become a God-King to fully withstand its whole power and madness. Or you could wait for me to come back and I will help you."

"Old Tang mentioned that to me." Said Tang Wulin although he didn't feel like waiting.

"That is good, but Wulin, just how did you unlock your God Bloodlines? They weren't meant to be open until the later seals."Said Tang San as this was something he noticed even back when he first met his son.

His son had tapped into his Asura and Sea God bloodline, even though it wasn't full.

"Why would I need the later seals for that?"

"The core of the Golden Dragon Seal is the two god bloodline inside of you. They are what make the seals so effective as they both have my divine sense within them. Initially, they would appear as you unlocked the later seals, allowing you to progress further. But somehow they awaken, meaning something drastic must have happened."

Tang Wulin had nodded his head before he started telling Tang San what happened during the Nine Dragon King trials.

His trip through a desolate world, his meeting with the Dragon God torso, and the feeling of its brutal suppression.

How this suppression ignited his bloodlines to awaken, allowing him to unlock both Sea God and Asura God.

"If it's like that, then it makes sense. While they didn't fully awaken from the seals inside, they were able to lend you some of their essences to fight against the Dragon God suppression. But of course, this also weakens the seal in the process." Said Tang San with a perplexed frown.

"Does this mean I have a smaller deadline for the seals?"

"Hmm, I don't think so. This is only a theory, but I think something inside of you is keeping the Golden Dragon King essence at bay, even with the weakening of the seals."

"Keeping it at bay? Could you mean the Dragon God Heart?"Muttered Tang Wulin with Tang San eyes shining.

"Dragon God Heart?"

"I was able to absorb the heart of the Dragon God when I was in the Dragon Valley. It became something similar to a Blood core for me, although I can't do much with it at the moment. It does help keep the Golden Dragon King madness and insanity under control, though."

"If it's like that, then you should be fine as long as you have the heart inside of you. Still for you to unlock your full God bloodline, you need to break the other seals."

"Alright." Said Tang Wulin with a nod of his head causing Tang San to sigh as a faint smile sprouted on his face.

"You have to master both of the skills I taught you. Especially the Indefinite Storm, with this skill there is no need to fear any enemy in any situation. Father also promises he will always be there to protect you, as I have placed three seals on you."

"Three seals?"

"Yes, although you haven't been in a situation where they would show up, thankfully. These three seals will have my divine sense appear to help you get out of trouble or save your life."

"Son, you have to be strong and healthy, that is the only thing Father wants. Only by being strong can you persist until father and son reunite when family becomes whole once again. Now you must prepare, as your next challenge is against me when I once stood in the highest state of the Douluo continent."Said Tang San but Tang Wulin only grins at this.

"Don't worry, I will beat you before claiming that trident."

"Hehe, that's my son. Daddy believes you. "

Tang San stopped talking as he gave his son one last look before he said one last sentence.

"Defeat Father and gain recognition."
