Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

The Nine Trials of the Sea God can be seen as the Sea God's cultivation of Su Mo, and Su Mo also gained a lot of benefits from the Nine Trials of the Sea God.

However, knowing that the position of the Asura God was more powerful, he turned around and chose to inherit the position of the Asura God.

How could the Asura God possibly look favorably upon someone who gives up halfway and is ungrateful?

Similarly, if Su Mo chooses the God of Asura, regardless of success or failure, he will inevitably miss out on the position of God of the Sea.

hum-

After confirming Su Mo's choice, Poseidon did not hesitate and quickly helped Su Mo begin the Ninth Trial of the Sea God.

First, a golden energy bound Su Mo, rendering him unable to move despite his cultivation level.

boom--

Immediately afterward, a golden energy vortex appeared above the statue of the sea god, resembling a golden portal.

During this time, Poseidon ultimately sacrificed herself, her entire body transforming into golden energy that converged on the golden portal.

hum-

But the moment Poseidon completely disappeared, the restraints on Su Mo vanished, and the golden portal above him fully formed and stabilized.

Su Mo glanced at the spot where Poseidon had disappeared, slightly lost in thought.

I remember in the original story, when the Sea God talked to Tang San, he said that he had guided Tang Chen and Poseidon's souls to other worlds, but I don't know if that's true.

After all, the two never appeared in the later sequels.

It could be true, or it could be that the Sea God deceived Tang San to appease him.

But nothing else mattered. Su Mo composed herself, glanced at the golden portal in the air, and then flashed inside.

boom~

As soon as Su Mo entered the golden portal, he felt a chill all over his body, surrounded by seawater.

Looking around, Su Mo saw a palace standing deep within the Sea God's domain.

Su Mo knew that the palace here was the real Sea God Temple.

Without hesitation, Su Mo immediately swam towards the Sea God Temple.

When Su Mo arrived outside the Sea God Temple, he was blocked by an invisible energy.

hum-

After Su Mo took out the Trident of Poseidon, he easily passed through it. There was no seawater inside; it was a normal palace, but this palace was extremely magnificent and sacred.

Su Mo slowly walked into the Sea God Temple and soon arrived at the center of the temple. There, he saw a majestic figure sitting on the throne.

"Junior Su Mo greets Lord Sea God!"

Upon seeing the figure, Su Mo knew it was the Sea God himself, and bowed slightly.

"After all these years, someone has finally come here!"

"Su Mo, are you ready?"

Poseidon glanced at Su Mo with a hint of appreciation, then slowly spoke.

Twenty thousand years have passed. He has waited for over twenty thousand years. Although twenty thousand years in the Douluo Continent is only a little over fifty years in the God Realm, he had long been tired of staying in the God Realm and had wanted to venture out to places outside the God Realm universe for a long time.

"I'm ready!"

Su Mo said seriously.

"Great, let's begin!"

After the Sea God finished speaking, he seemed even more impatient than Su Mo.

hum-

Then, the sea god summoned a rhombus-shaped Rubik's Cube.

Click~ Click~

Then, under Poseidon's control, the golden Rubik's Cube began to spin rapidly, crisscrossing and rotating without any apparent pattern.

As the golden cube rotated, Su Mo's figure was directly sucked into it.

"The first trial of Poseidon's Nine Trials begins!"

With a voice ringing out, the Ninth Trial of the Sea God truly began.

Click~

Click~

Once inside the golden cube, Su Mo was attacked from all directions, and he could only dodge the attacks by flashing his figure.

As Su Mo dodged, the soul bone in Su Mo's left arm began to break free from his body, slowly being pulled away by an invisible force, as if trying to peel the soul bone off Su Mo's body.

While dodging the attacks around him, Su Mo endured the pain of his soul bones being stripped away.

However, Su Mo did not panic, because he knew what the ninth trial of the Sea God was all about.

After the Sea God took out the golden cube and began to peel away his soul bones, Su Mo knew that this ninth trial of the Sea God was the same as the one he had seen before.

The Ninth Trial of the Sea God consists of seven levels, corresponding to the seven emotions.

Each time a level is cleared, the soul bones that have been stripped from the body will be forged into artifacts by the power of the Sea God. After clearing all the levels, a complete set of the Sea God Armor will be assembled.

……

Poseidon Island.

The seven guardians of the sacred pillars and the island's inhabitants were all watching the sky above Poseidon Island.

Everyone knew that today was the day Su Mo would undergo the ninth trial of the Sea God. Golden light shimmered above Sea God Island, and waves of the Sea God's power flickered there.

"Do you think Lord Su Mo can pass the Ninth Trial of the Sea God?"

Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but speculate.

"It's definitely possible! If Lord Su Mo fails, then the High Priest's sacrifice would have been in vain!"

When the Sea Witch Douluo heard the Sea Horse Douluo's phone call, she immediately glared at him angrily.

"That's right, Lord Su Mo can definitely do it!"

"We just need to wait and witness that moment!"

Sea Dragon Douluo then agreed with Sea Witch Douluo's words, speaking firmly.

"right!"

"That's right!"

"Lord Su Mo can definitely do it!"

"..."

Upon hearing Sea Dragon Douluo's words, the other Holy Pillar Guardians echoed his sentiments.

Regardless of whether Su Mo can complete the final assessment, they certainly hope that Su Mo can.

Only if Su Mo passes the test will Poseidon's sacrifice not have been in vain, and only then will their mission over the years be truly completed.

However, despite their anticipation, their feelings were also very complicated.

The existence of Poseidon Island is for the purpose of selecting a successor for the Poseidon.

If the successor truly appears, it means that the mission of Poseidon Island is complete, and their mission to protect Poseidon Island is also complete.

Poseidon Island will no longer exist.

The seven guardians of the sacred pillars will also go their separate ways.

Poseidon Island has lost its mission, Poseidon is no more, and they will not choose to stay in order to maintain Poseidon Island.

Apart from the sea witch, they were all transformed from sea spirit beasts that had been cultivating for 100,000 years, and they all had their own clans.

Since Poseidon Island no longer needs them, they must want to return to their own kind or go to the mainland to take a look.

They've been stuck on Poseidon Island for so many years, unable to leave, and they've long been tired of it.

hum-

After an unknown amount of time, a figure appeared in the sky above Poseidon Island amidst the waiting of the entire island.

It's Su Mo.

At this moment, Su Mo's aura changed again, becoming aloof and intimidating, making people dare not look directly at him.

Just standing there, he exudes an aura of immense authority.

"Welcome to Lord Poseidon!"

Hailong Douluo and the others only glanced at it before immediately bowing their heads and kneeling on the ground.
