Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul Luo Sanpao, a Counterattack Against the Dragon God

Chapter 73 The Nine Trials of the Sea God!
"Your subject will certainly live up to Your Majesty's high expectations!"

Yu Chenlan's voice echoed in the hall, filled with barely suppressed excitement and determination.

"it is good."

Yu Jingcheng nodded slightly, slowly raised his right hand, and gently tapped the air with his index finger.

Om-!
The entire space of the Sun Palace seemed to freeze for a moment.

Golden light shone brightly in Yu Jingcheng's eyes, and the power of the plane began to operate.

Although the current ruler of Douluo Star is only a second-level god.

However, on Douluo Star, its role is even greater than that of most first-level gods.

"In my name, I command the planes to reshape their rules."

Accompanied by Yu Jingcheng's majestic whisper.

The crimson, blood-red source of slaughter and the Asura Demon Sword, suspended in the air, transformed into a fierce and domineering red light, instantly piercing into Yu Chenlan's brow!

"Well--!"

Yu Chenlan let out a muffled groan, his body trembling violently.

That power was too violent; even after Yu Jingcheng erased the original mark, its essence remained the ultimate slaughter and destruction.

But Yu Chenlan did not back down. He gritted his teeth and let the power wash over his limbs and bones, while the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon Martial Soul roared wildly behind him.

Gradually, the red light subsided.

A blood-red demonic sword mark slowly appeared in the center of Yu Chenlan's forehead, radiating a chilling light that sent shivers down one's spine.

At the same time, a cold and mechanical voice resounded directly in Yu Chenlan's mind, and even the air in the hall vibrated due to the interference of the plane's consciousness:
"Nine Trials of Slaughter, First Trial: Merge with the sword intent of the Asura Demon Sword and comprehend the heart of slaughter. Time limit: one year."

"Nine Trials of Slaughter, Second Trial: Break through to level 90 in Soul Power and obtain the Ninth Soul Ring. Time Limit: Three years."

"..."

If Tang Chen from back then were to hear this series of assessment criteria, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot.

The original trials for godhood were all fraught with peril, with each one facing a near-death experience.
Even Tang San's Nine Trials of the Sea God, the first of which was to pass through twice the light of the Sea God, was an extreme torment to both body and will.

For Yu Chenlan, the first test was simply "integrating sword intent," and the second test was simply "cultivating step by step to level ninety."

This is hardly a test from the gods.

This is clearly feeding someone the food right to their mouth, and then blowing on it to cool it down because they were worried it was too hot!

Yu Jingcheng looked at the mark on her son's forehead, a faint smile curving her lips:

"Chen Lan, I have used my dimensional authority to significantly reduce the difficulty of the first six trials of the Nine Trials of Slaughter for you."

You just need to follow the steps and utilize the royal resources to your advantage, and you can easily pass.

"As for the last three tests, they are crucial to the transformation of the soul. Although I can help you, you will ultimately need to comprehend the mindset of 'wielding killing without being controlled by killing' yourself."

"From this day forward, this Asura Demon Sword will be temporarily stored in your sea of ​​consciousness to help you nurture your soul."

As Yu Chenlan felt the subjugation of the terrifying demonic sword in his mind, and the difficulty of the test that was as easy as child's play, his reverence for his father reached its peak.

"Your Majesty's divine might is beyond my ability to repay, even with my death!"

Yu Chenlan kowtowed deeply once more.

"Go, begin your seclusion for cultivation immediately. You may not leave until you are granted a title."

Yu Jingcheng waved his hand.

"Yes!"

Yu Chenlan respectfully withdrew, his steps firm, carrying with him a soaring, sharp spirit poised to take flight.

After the eldest son left, the empty hall returned to silence.

Yu Jingcheng did not get up, but slightly shifted his gaze to a certain place in the void, as if he could see a vast blue ocean through layers of space.

That was the Sea God's divine position, which he had sealed deep within the dimensional space. "Sea God..."

Yu Jingcheng tapped the armrest lightly with her fingers, muttering to herself.

"Although he is only a first-level god and his combat power on land is limited, he still has the authority to control the sea."

"If the Sun Moon Empire intends to conquer the Star Luo and Heavenly Soul kingdoms, or even explore other Douluo planets, the power of the Sea God will be indispensable."

"Summon the Second Prince, Yu Haoyang, to an audience."

The indifferent voice rang out again, and shortly after, another young figure entered the hall.

If Yu Chenlan is a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, its edge fully revealed, then Yu Haoyang is like a piece of warm, unpolished jade, reserved and profound.

However, the surge of soul power within him was by no means weak, clearly indicating that he was also a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse!
Moreover, his martial soul is also that top-tier sub-dragon species—the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon!

"Your subject, Yu Haoyang, pays respects to Your Majesty."

Yu Haoyang bowed respectfully, a hint of doubt in his eyes. His elder brother had only just left, and his father had summoned him; there must be something important.

"Haoyang".

Yu Jingcheng looked at his second son, a hint of satisfaction also appearing in his eyes.

"Your elder brother's opportunity has arrived, and now it's your turn."

Yu Haoyang was startled and suddenly looked up: "Father?"

Yu Jingcheng stopped wasting words and reached into the void with his right hand again, grabbing sharply.

Rumble——!
The roar of a vast, raging sea seemed to echo within the main hall.

A dazzling, azure light was forcibly pulled out of the void by Yu Jingcheng!
Within that light, the faint outline of a golden trident could be seen, radiating the aura of a vast and boundless sea.

"This is... the divine position of the Sea God?!"

Yu Haoyang instantly recognized the source of the aura and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"good."

Yu Jingcheng remained calm, as if what he held in his hand was not a supreme divine position, but an ordinary object.

"Poseidon has been deposed, and Poseidon Island has become a prison."

But this position of sea god cannot be wasted.

"Haoyang, although your martial soul is also the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, your main cultivation is destruction."

But dragons inherently possess the ability to summon wind and rain and overturn rivers and seas.

The domineering power of Zihuang in destroying the Heavenly Dragon, if combined with the vastness and inclusiveness of the ocean, might very well forge a completely new path for the 'Sea Dragon God'.

As he spoke, Yu Jingcheng spread his five fingers, and the azure blue divine essence pulsated wildly in his palm, as if it wanted to escape and return to the sea.

However, under the absolute suppression of the plane's ruler, it couldn't make a ripple at all.

"Today, I will use this divine position to pave the way to heaven for you!"

"Dimensional consciousness, descend!"

boom!
Another grand will descended upon the Temple of the Sun.

Yu Jingcheng forcibly manipulated the rules of the plane, directly stripping and recombining the Nine Trials of the Sea God, which should have been set up on Sea God Island and required countless hardships to be opened, and then forcibly infusing them into Yu Haoyang's body!

"The Nine Trials of the Sea God Begin."

There was no light of the sea god, nor any crossing of the raging waves.

Under Yu Jingcheng's "selfish" manipulation, the originally extremely rigorous assessment also underwent a dramatic change.

A blue-gold trident mark slowly appeared on Yu Haoyang's forehead, complementing his purplish-black dragon aura and exuding an eerie yet noble beauty.
