Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

Chapter 170 Breakthrough to Soul Saint

"It's a success!"

"That's fantastic! Su Mo, you really have passed the Nine Trials of the Sea God!"

Upon seeing that Su Mo had truly passed the Sea God's inheritance test, Bibi Dong, who was on Su Mo, couldn't help but exclaim with delight.

She believed that with Su Mo's abilities, since he had obtained the Sea God's inheritance test, he would definitely be able to complete it.

After Su Mo becomes a god, with Su Mo's help, she will be able to break free from Su Mo's grasp.

No one likes being trapped inside someone else's body. Even though Bibi Dong trusts Su Mo now, she doesn't want to be trapped inside him forever.

"Yes, Sister Rakshasa, don't worry, I will definitely be able to complete the Nine Trials of the Sea God!"

Su Mo was also very happy, as he now had a chance to become a god!

"High Priest!"

The bespectacled secretary, still in shock, couldn't help but look at Poseidon.

She had some guesses, but she didn't dare to believe them, so she looked at Poseidon to confirm.

"Indeed, it seems you are indeed the one chosen by Lord Sea God!"

"What's your name?"

Poseidon didn't answer the bespectacled secretary, but instead looked at Su Mo, sighed, and then asked Su Mo's name.

Even now, she still doesn't know Su Mo's name!

"Su Mo!"

Su Mo replied.

"My name is Ning Rongrong!"

"My name is Ye Lingling!"

Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling also consciously followed Su Mo and announced their names.

"Su Mo, the Nine Trials of the Sea God are an immense opportunity for you, but also a tremendous challenge. However, I hope you can do your best to complete them!"

After learning Su Mo's name, Poseidon spoke to Su Mo with a serious expression.

She meant it sincerely.

She genuinely hoped that Lord Poseidon's waiting would have a good outcome.

But deep down, Poseidon was also jealous and resentful.

Although she was somewhat unwilling, Poseidon would not stop Su Mo from completing the Nine Trials of the Sea God. On the contrary, Poseidon would help Su Mo as much as possible.

"Pass down the word: from today onwards, Su Mo is the most honored guest on Seagod Island!"

Immediately afterwards, Poseidon turned to his secretary and gave instructions.

"Yes, High Priest!"

The bespectacled secretary quickly responded upon hearing this.

The secretary with glasses looked at Su Mo differently now.

She used to think the other person was just a genius, but now she knows that Su Mo is not only a genius, but also the person that Seagod Island has been waiting for all these years.

"Su Mo, you've just arrived at Seagod Island, so please rest first!"

"Come back here tomorrow at the foot of Poseidon Mountain to begin your first test!"

Poseidon looked at Su Mo again and said.

"Yes, High Priest!"

Su Mo had no objection; there was no rush.

And they do need a place to settle down.

Afterwards, Su Mo and the other two, led by the bespectacled secretary, settled down in the town closest to Poseidon Mountain.

This town is called Sea Ghost City, and it is guarded by Sea Ghost Douluo.

After Su Mo and his group settled down in Sea Ghost City, Sea Ghost Douluo came to entertain them.

As the examiner of the Sea God's successor, Sea Ghost Douluo dared not be negligent.

Moreover, even without Su Mo, Ning Rongrong alone, who obtained the top-level Seven Trials, was enough to make the Sea Ghost Douluo treat her with serious respect.

The next day, Su Mo and the other two returned to the foot of Sea God Mountain, where the Sea God Temple was located.

Yesterday, Su Mo teleported directly to the top of the Sea God Temple, but they can't do that again today.

"Passing through the Light of Poseidon!"

"Is this where you climb up?"

Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling looked at the Heavenly Ladder, which seemed to be shrouded in a layer of light, with curiosity in their eyes.

They already knew what the first test would be about, but they didn't know exactly what it would be like.

"My first test requires climbing 108 steps, which is the fewest and should be the easiest, so let me give it a try!"

Ye Lingling arrived at the steps, said something, and then stepped onto them.

hum-

As soon as Ye Lingling went up, she felt a pressure on her body, as if it wanted to push her down the steps.

However, it was only the first step, and the repulsive force was not very strong. Ye Lingling easily withstood it.

Then, Ye Lingling continued to walk up step by step.

At first, she was moving very fast, but after going up seven or eight steps, Ye Lingling's speed became slower and slower, and her feet felt like they were being weighed down with a heavy load, making it increasingly difficult for her to lift her feet.

"No way? Lingling can't even make it up ten steps?"

"Why is that?"

Ning Rongrong, who was at the foot of the mountain, was immediately surprised when she saw Ye Lingling's performance.

"It's the effect of the Light of Poseidon, Rongrong, you'll see for yourself when you go up and try it!"

Su Mo said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll give it a try!"

Hearing Su Mo say this, Ning Rongrong was not intimidated and then stepped onto the stairs.

hum-

When the repulsive force of the Sea God's Light struck her, Ning Rongrong finally understood what the first test was.

Then, Ning Rongrong followed in Ye Lingling's footsteps and slowly caught up with her.

Without Su Mo needing to explain anything, the two women had already found the correct way to pass the level.

You cannot use offensive soul skills when passing through this sea god's light.

Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong don't have any offensive soul skills, so they can't use them even if they wanted to. Naturally, they won't act as recklessly as Dai Mubai and the others in the original work.

"I'll go up and give it a try too!"

Seeing that the two women had already started trying, Su Mo smiled slightly and then stepped forward.

hum-

Similarly, Su Mo felt the repulsive force of the Sea God's power the moment he stepped onto the stairs.

However, this power was nothing in front of Su Mo.

Su Mo seemed oblivious to everything and continued walking upwards, step by step, up one flight of stairs.

"Wow, that's amazing! He walks so effortlessly!"

"Was this really his first time traversing the Light of Poseidon?"

Upon seeing Su Mo's performance, the bespectacled secretary watching from above exclaimed in surprise.

"That's because he's in excellent physical condition!"

Poseidon, who was standing in front of the bespectacled secretary, also saw Su Mo's performance. Her beautiful eyes flickered slightly before she calmly spoke.

Poseidon was somewhat surprised by Su Mo's strong physical abilities, but not too much.

After all, someone chosen by the Sea God must have some ability.

"Rongrong, I'm going up first. Don't push yourself when you can't walk anymore. We still have a year, there's no rush to finish it all at once!"

"The pressure of this sea god's light is perfect for cultivation. Cultivating here will yield twice the results with half the effort!"

Soon, Su Mo caught up with Ning Rongrong on the 14th step.

As Su Mo passed Ning Rongrong, he also gave Ning Rongrong a briefing.

"Okay, I understand!"

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up when she heard Su Mo's words, and she quickly nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Su Mo didn't wait for Ning Rongrong any longer and walked past her to continue upstairs.

Then, on the 18th step, Su Mo overtook Ye Lingling as well.

"Lingling, the same goes for you. If you really can't do it, don't force yourself. The point of this trial is to use this environment to cultivate!"

As Su Mo passed Ye Lingling, he also said something to her.

"Okay, I understand!"

Ye Lingling quickly agreed upon hearing Su Mo's instructions.

Ning Rongrong had overheard what Su Mo had just said to her.

Watching Su Mo's retreating figure, Ye Lingling's eyes flashed with admiration once again.

Even though Su Mo had surpassed her, she was walking with unusual ease now.

And what about her? When she got here, she could barely walk anymore; every step felt like a thousand pounds.

Soon, Ye Lingling stopped at the 20th step and began to cultivate.

"Lingling, let me cultivate with you too, I can't go any higher either!"

Ning Rongrong quickly caught up with Ye Lingling and stopped on the 21st step, where they began cultivating together.

"He actually grasped the most important information of the first level so quickly!"

The bespectacled secretary was surprised again after seeing this scene.

However, her gaze did not linger on Ning Rongrong and Ye Lingling for long before quickly shifting back to Su Mo.

Because Su Mo had already climbed 40 steps.

She finally noticed that Su Mo's steps upwards began to slow down.

From Su Mo's actions, it's easy to see that he also felt the pressure of the Sea God's Light and began to find it difficult to move.

When Su Mo reached the 60th step, she also felt that it would be difficult for her to continue climbing.

"Domain of the God of Slaughter!"

"Eight Spider Lances!"

hum-

When he felt that it would be difficult to advance any further on his own, Su Mo immediately unleashed his Killing God Domain and released the Eight Spider Lances on his back.

As Su Mo unleashed the fire from the God of Slaughter Domain and the Eight Spider Lances, he immediately felt a lightness in his body, as if the heavy oppressive feeling from before had vanished instantly.

It didn't actually disappear; it just weakened a lot all of a sudden.

With the support of the Killing God Domain and the Eight Spider Lances, Su Mo lifted his foot and continued walking upwards.

It wasn't until she reached the 80th step that Su Mo felt that difficulty in taking each step again.

Then Su Mo continued to climb, one step at a time, making heavy, firm strides.

"That's 88 steps!"

"My goodness, he actually reached the 88th step on his first attempt at traversing the Sea God's Light! That's incredible!"

The bespectacled secretary, who was watching from the sidelines, stared wide-eyed at Su Mo's figure in disbelief.

The heights that she had to work hard for several years to reach were accomplished by Su Mo in one go.

Poseidon, who was standing to the side, was also somewhat surprised to see Su Mo's figure.

It's extremely rare to reach this level on the first try.

Su Mo's mastery of the Killing God Domain and the Eight Spider Lances also surprised her somewhat.

After reaching the 88th step, Su Mo finally stopped and did not continue climbing.

Su Mo felt that he couldn't go much further up, so there was no need to continue. In any case, he couldn't possibly complete the first of the Nine Trials of the Sea God in one go.

Then, Su Mo sat down cross-legged on the 88th step and began to cultivate using the pressure of the Sea God's Light.

There's still a year left, no rush. The most valuable aspect of this first test is using the light of the sea god to accelerate cultivation.

So from that day on, Su Mo and the other two began to cultivate in the first test of the Sea God, using the pressure of the Sea God's light.

In just three months, Su Mo's soul power level broke through again, rising from level 68 to level 69.

I'm just one step away from breaking through level 70 and becoming a Soul Saint.

Ning Rongrong's soul power level has also broken through to level 58.

Ye Lingling also officially broke through level 50 and became a Soul King a month ago.

Ye Lingling also obtained a divinely bestowed soul ring and successfully condensed a ten-thousand-year soul ring.

Those who participate in the Seagod Island assessment and break through during the assessment will receive a divinely bestowed soul ring.

However, you only have one chance.

Whether or not a divinely bestowed soul ring will be obtained later depends on the examinee's performance in the assessment. If the examinee performs well and completes an assessment, the divinely bestowed soul ring will be issued as an extra reward.

However, it seems that only the Sea God is so generous. Even if they are not Sea God's successors or just ordinary Sea God Island examiners, they can be given divine soul rings without hesitation. I don't know how many people have received them.

Unlike the angel gods and rakshasa gods, they only had one examinee and didn't seem to have many divinely bestowed soul rings.

In this respect, the sea god was quite generous.

Su Mo guessed that this might be related to the position of the sea god. After becoming a god, the sea god continued to protect the sea, and the creatures on the sea also worshipped the sea god.

Therefore, the sea god possessed enough faith power to condense into a divinely bestowed soul ring.

Well, Su Mo guessed that the so-called divinely bestowed soul ring was created by the Sea God through the power of faith.

Three months later.

hum-

Su Mo, who was cultivating on the 188 steps, emanated a strong fluctuation of soul power.

Subsequently, Su Mo's soul power level finally broke through from level 69 to level 70.

"Great! I've finally broken through level 70!"

Su Mo opened his eyes, his eyes filled with excitement.

Even though he knew that breaking through to level 70 wouldn't be a problem for him and was just a matter of time, Su Mo was still very excited now that he had finally broken through.

hum-

Just as Su Mo broke through to level 70, a beautiful figure appeared in front of him.

"Su Mo, congratulations on successfully breaking through level 70 and becoming a Soul Saint!"

"Break through a major level during the assessment, and like Ye Lingling, you will receive a divinely bestowed soul ring!"

Poseidon appeared before Su Mo, congratulated him, and then waved her scepter slightly, revealing a tiny divine soul ring in front of Su Mo.

"Once you're ready, you can absorb it!"

Poseidon said.

"Yes, thank you, High Priest!"

Upon seeing the divinely bestowed soul ring, Su Mo's eyes lit up immediately.

He came to Seagod Island ahead of time, wasn't it so that he could also condense a 100,000-year soul ring for his seventh soul ring?
