Chapter 531: God-Gifted Spirit Ring! 100,000 Years Isn't the Limit? What a Monster!_1

By this time, Poseissi had already returned to the ground.

The peerless beauty's radiant visage flushed faintly, her authoritative silver phoenix eyes seemingly containing shallow autumn waves.

Her graceful, red-hot figure was wrapped in a red robe, with a pair of slender jade-like legs sheathed in heels, exuding an air of elegance and nobility, stunningly beautiful.

All her gaze was fixed on the man.

Luo Yu's performance had simply exceeded her expectations.

Especially that surge of aura he emitted at the moment of his breakthrough made even her heart tremble involuntarily.

Was it an illusion?

It must be.

How could this guy possibly compare with her, let alone surpass her?

Impossible! How many years had he been cultivating?

The brief shock made Poseissi even forget her shyness.

After a long while, Luo Yu slowly opened his eyes.

The amethyst gold flash in his pupils was so dazzling that even Poseissi found it piercing.

He took a deep breath.

His cultivation level had actually broken through to the realm of a Soul Douluo.

You should know that his cultivation was not measured in the same way as ordinary people; the amount of Soul Power he needed to accumulate for every breakthrough might be thousands of times that of others at the same level.

The body forged by the Tribulation-Crossing Golden Lotus, the Dragon God Martial Soul, the million-level God Ring, the Dragon King level soul bone, the Source of Divinity—all these fortuitous enhancements to his body were no joke.

Luo Yu clenched his fist, glancing at the Seven Pillar Guardians below the mountain.

He was now confident that he could annihilate them with three punches, as if they were merely children to be thrashed.

As for the Ultimate Douluo before him,

With his full strength unleashed, it could be summarized in four words.

Easily flipped over!

"What's the matter, don't you recognize me?"

Luo Yu waved his hand in front of Poseissi's eyes.

Poseissi came back to her senses, her throat moving slightly.

"Just what is your cultivation level."

"It's definitely not simple."

Luo Yu spread his hands with a smile tugging at his lips.

"Take a guess."

"Guess right, and I'll tell you."

"Humph!"

Poseissi glared, inwardly cursing, If I could guess, would I still need to ask you?

Luo Yu was about to speak.

When a golden light descended, the Sea God Hall that was seemingly within arm's reach disappeared, and he and Poseissi were back at the foot of the mountain.

"What does this mean?" Luo Yu asked.

Poseissi explained, "Passing the first of the Sea God's Nine Quests doesn't grant access to the Sea God Hall; one must complete six of the quests to enter."

"Tch."

Luo Yu crossed his arms, rolled his eyes, and scoffed at her words.

"There's just a Sea God's Trident hidden in the temple, and yet there's all this mystery."

"Hm?" The Seven Pillar Guardians all turned their heads to stare at him.

"How did you know that??"

Poseissi was also very surprised.

Luo Yu shrugged, "That's not a secret at all."

The Sea Horse Douluo's eyes bulged.

"What do you mean it's not a secret? Only the eight of us on the island know, how could this guy know!"

"Swish!"

The golden mark of the Sea God's Trident on Luo Yu's forehead shone, projecting a light screen.

"For passing the first of the Sea God's Nine Quests, a reward of 5% Sea God Affinity is granted."

"Due to the exceeding performance in the trial, the reward is doubled, Sea God Affinity increased by 10%!"

"The Sea God's Nine Quests, Second Trial: Break through the Circular Sea blockade without killing any sea soul beast. Reach the opposite shore, not allowed to use any soul skill."

"Hiss—"

The crowd had just been envying Luo Yu's increase in Sea God Affinity.

When he saw his second trial, he couldn't help but gasp.

"Not allowed to kill soul beasts, and can't use soul skills, how on earth can one pass the trial?" muttered the Sea Horse Douluo, unable to restrain himself.

The Sea Dragon Douluo nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, isn't that just courting death? Those sea soul beasts are no joke."

However, unlike everyone else's concerns, Poseissi asked another question.

"Luo Yu, answer me honestly, did your first trial require you to kiss me to get through the Sea God's Light?"

"Why would you ask that?" Luo Yu wondered.

He remembered acting rather well; how could Poseissi have noticed?

The first trial of the Sea God only required him to pass five hundred steps.

For the sake of more realistic acting,

he had deliberately increased the difficulty of the test to an outrageous one thousand-and-one steps. With such a terrifying test, if he added a few more conditions, he believed Poseissi wouldn't be suspicious.

"Hmph!"

Poseissi scoffed, "Do you remember when you passed the last step, we were apart?"

"And yet, not only did your trial not fail, but it also indicated that you completed it exceedingly well. What does that tell you?"

Luo Yu spread his hands, "What else could it tell you?"

"It tells that the Sea God is personified."

"No way, don't try to bluff me!" Poseissi glared and interrogated.

"What?" Luo Yu's expression was exaggerated, "Are you suggesting the Sea God lacks humanity?"

"No, I didn't mean that," Poseissi said, growing agitated.

"So you mean to say the Sea God should be nitpicky and critical, seizing on our tiny mistakes, preventing us both from passing?" Luo Yu pressed on step by step.

"Ah."

Poseissi was going crazy.

"That's not what I meant!"

"I feel you do, and I have reason to doubt your loyalty to the Sea God's faith," Luo Yu continued.

"What are you joking about!"

Poseissi shouted, "I have lived on Sea God's Island my entire life, living every day for the faith, when have I ever been disloyal."

Luo Yu said, "So is there a problem with me saying the Sea God is magnanimous and didn't quibble about our tiny mistake at the end allowing us to pass?"

"No… no problem," Poseissi responded through gritted teeth.

She felt she had been duped, massively duped.

This damn man managed to get a kiss out of her for nothing, it was over the top.

If it weren't for seeing the mark on his forehead representing the Sea God's inheritance, Poseissi would've wished to split Luo Yu right there and then.

Luo Yu rolled his eyes, "Please don't look at me with that kind of vendetta glare."

"I said I didn't want to kiss you, I was willing to give up the trial and leave the island, it was you who insisted I come back."

"How could you suspect me instead!"

"Are you slapping me with a countercharge?"

Poseissi's beautiful eyes fell into thought.

It seemed… there was indeed such an incident.

It was she who had begged the man to come back, wanting to accept the inheritance herself.

Could it be that she had wronged him?

Poseissi suddenly regretted questioning him just now.

"Here, this is for you."

"What is it?" Luo Yu was curious.

Poseissi's hand revealed a golden bead, carved as if from the most precious golden crystal, flawless, and most peculiar of all,

within the golden bead, a faint mist swirled continuously.

"This is the God-Gifted Spirit Ring!" Poseissi explained, "This is the real treasure, a gift from the Deities."

"It can grant you a soul ring that best suits your body based on the strength of your physique."

Luo Yu's eyes brightened, he pondered, "You mean, the stronger my physique, the stronger the soul ring this thing will turn into?"

Poseissi nodded affirmatively.

"Of course."

"The limit of your physique is the limit of this God-Gifted Spirit Ring."

"Let's give it a try." Luo Yu grinned, raising his hand, finding it quite interesting.
