Wuhun Luo Sanpao? I am the Dragon Emperor!

Chapter 326 The Eighth Trial of Asura: Tang Chen Meets Poseidon Again—Endless Embarrassment

On the plains outside the killing town.

The wind swept fine sand across the ground, making a soft rustling sound.

The sky was overcast, with thick clouds hanging low as if they might collapse at any moment.

Yu Xiaolie stood at the edge of the giant pit, the Asura Demon Sword pointing diagonally at the ground, its dark red sword energy slowly receding.

The direction Tang Chen had left was now deserted, with only the lingering smell of blood in the air reminding him of the fierce battle that had just ended.

A cold and authoritative voice echoed in his mind—

[Ding! You have completed the seventh trial of Shura, "Defeat Tang Chen in his conscious state." You are rewarded with 70% Shura God Affinity.]

[The reward is either a 50,000-year increase in the age of a single Soul Ring or a 5000-year increase in the age of all Soul Rings. The reward is marked and can be redeemed at any time.]

Immediately afterwards, the eighth light screen slowly lit up in front of him, and golden characters appeared in the air like a brand:
[The Eighth Trial of Asura: Defeat the previous Asura God.]

Yu Xiaolie raised an eyebrow.

"?"

He stared at the screen for two seconds, then a slight smile appeared on his lips.

"Only at the eighth test, and he's already attacking a previous generation of deities? That's incredibly powerful?"

He muttered to himself, his fingers gently tracing the blade of the sword, "It seems the Asura Godhood is more interesting than I imagined."

He showed no fear; on the contrary, his fighting spirit intensified.

The strong never complain about the environment.

Yu Xiaolie stared at the Asura Demon Sword. This second martial soul was still two spirit rings short of being complete.

On his left wrist, five sword-shaped markings flickered slightly, representing rewards such as replacing soul rings and increasing the age of soul rings.

"First, collect all nine soul rings, then go and meet the next Asura God."

He pondered this in his mind, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

In the distance, the Black Nether Dragon crouched low, its dragon eyes reflecting its master's image, as if silently responding to his fighting spirit.

……

Poseidon Island.

The azure waves gently lapped against the rocks on the shore, and the sea breeze, carrying a salty and damp scent, swept across the square in front of the Temple of Poseidon.

Tang Chen stood outside the hall, gazing at the familiar building before him, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

The last time he came here, he was still the spirited Haotian Douluo. But now, his body has been corrupted by the Nine-Headed Bat King (through his extravagant spending) and is riddled with holes. He has not even been able to complete the Asura God Trial.

“Poseidon…”

Tang Chen murmured softly, his voice tinged with bitterness.

As the palace doors slowly opened, a slender figure appeared in the entrance.

Poseidon was still breathtakingly beautiful, her long silver hair fluttering in the wind, and her sea-blue dress outlining her graceful figure.

However, her eyes were no longer as cold as they used to be; instead, they held a complex emotion.

"Tang Chen? Is it really you?"

Her voice trembled slightly, as if she couldn't believe her eyes.

This time, it can't be another hallucination, can it?
"it's me."

Tang Chen gave a wry smile. "I never expected that our reunion would be like this."

When he left, he boasted: "When I inherit the divine position, I will come back and watch the sea with you."

But now, the divine position is gone, and even this body...

Poseidon strode forward, reaching out to touch his face, but stopped in mid-air, and finally just gently took his hand.

"Are you... alright?" she asked softly.

"I've kept you waiting too long." Tang Chen shook his head, his eyes filled with guilt and a sense of unworthiness: "I was possessed by that beast, and I've done so many despicable things over the years... I'm so sorry..."

During those days when he was controlled by evil, his body committed countless filthy acts, which he himself dared not even think about. Poseidon remained silent for a moment, a faint blush rising on his face.

(Sigh, what's with the apologies? Forget about losing control of your body!)

Suddenly, she sighed softly, "Let bygones be bygones."

Tang Chen took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes, it's all in the past."

Both were lost in their own thoughts and remained silent for a moment, feeling nothing but awkwardness.

They walked silently side by side into the Temple of Poseidon.

The dome of the Temple of Poseidon soars high, and sunlight streams through the stained glass windows, casting dappled shadows on the ground.

"So... you not only met Yu Xiaolie, but also fought with him?" Poseidon asked.

Tang Chen nodded, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes: "That kid... he's simply a monster."

“Yes.” Poseidon was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled bitterly, “I tried to stop him at sea, but he almost killed me instead.”

Upon hearing this, Tang Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Even you can't do anything about him?"

Among the three Limit Douluo, Poseidon's strength is undoubtedly the strongest.

Poseidon shook his head: "He's so young, yet his strength has already reached the level of a level 99 Limit Douluo, not to mention that Sacred Dragon Martial Soul..."

The two exchanged a glance, marveling at the formidable strength of their junior, Yu Xiaolie.

……

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan's mountain gate stands majestically, shrouded in mist and clouds.

Yu Xiaolie climbed the stone steps one by one, and his mount, the Black Nether Holy Dragon, transformed into a stream of light and returned to his body.

He had been gone for more than half a year, and the sect remained the same, only the air seemed to have a slightly more familiar feel to it.

As soon as they stepped into the inner courtyard, a slender figure rushed over like the wind.

"Xiao Lie!"

Shui Qing'er grabbed his arm, her eyes filled with joy, her voice tinged with a hint of reproach: "You still know how to come back?"

Yu Xiaolie chuckled and reached out to ruffle her hair: "What, did you miss me?"

"Who missed you!"

Shui Qing'er's cheeks flushed slightly. Although she denied it, she held his sleeve tightly and refused to let go.

Not far away, Tang Yuehua and A Yin stood side by side, both of their eyes fixed on him.

Ah Yin's eyes held a gentle smile as she softly said, "It's good that you're back."

Tang Yuehua strode forward, her fingertips gently brushing away the dust from the corner of his clothes: "Where have you been for the past six months? We haven't heard a word from you, we were all worried sick."

Looking at the three people in front of him, Yu Xiaolie felt a warmth in his heart. Shui Qing'er's pride, Tang Yuehua's meticulousness, and A Yin's restraint were all things he cherished.

Shui Qing'er leaned closer and said with a grin, "Xiao Lie, now that you're back, you should at least take us out for a walk, right? Staying in the sect all day is so boring!"

He looked at the three of them and slowly revealed his next plan: "I plan to take Shui Bing'er to the far north to hunt for a soul ring first, as her ultimate ice martial soul needs a more powerful ice attribute soul bone. After that, I will take the three children with dragon cub martial souls out to train. Their martial souls are special and require a unique training method."

"The far north?" A hint of eagerness flashed in Ah Yin's eyes. "I am now a level 92 Title Douluo, so I can accompany you. With the vitality of my Blue Silver Grass, I'm sure I can come in handy."

Shui Qing'er immediately chimed in, "I'm also level 85, dealing with ordinary soul beasts is no problem for me, count me in."

Tang Yuehua pursed her lips slightly, a hint of envy and loneliness flashing in her eyes.

Her martial soul mutation caused her soul power to stagnate, leaving her without even the most basic ability to protect herself, making it impossible for her to adventure with Yu Xiaolie like Ah Yin and Shui Qing'er.

Yu Xiaolie noticed her dejection, suddenly reached out and took her hand, and said softly, "Yuehua, perhaps... I can try to help you solve your martial soul problem."

Tang Yuehua looked up abruptly, a hint of disbelief flashing in her eyes: "Really?"

Yu Xiaolie nodded, a confident smile playing on his lips: "With my current strength, I might be able to try some things that I couldn't do before."

Shui Qing'er cheered and rushed over to hug Tang Yuehua: "Great! Yuehua can come too!"

Ah Yin also showed a relieved smile.
