Douluo: Martial Soul Asura Sword, Supreme Killing God

"Yes." Ning Wanqing forced a smile.

When the news reached Tang Chen's ears, this usually stern and unsmiling peerless Douluo also showed a rare smile.

Because this child is not only his great-grandson, but also the hope of the Haotian Sect and the continuation of the Tang family bloodline.

……

Seven months later.

Poseidon Island.

A full year has passed since Bibi Dong and the others arrived on the island.

Today is the final deadline for Bibi Dong and her two sisters to challenge the light of the sea god.

At this moment, at the foot of Poseidon Mountain.

Poseidon and Ah Yin each held Su Mo's arm, while Ye Qing Shuang stood slightly behind them.

The four of them stared at Bibi Dong, who was struggling to climb the long staircase.

Her assessment requirement was to climb 136 steps, and she has now reached 100 steps.

It is worth mentioning that Bibi Dong and the other two girls have all made great progress in the past year.

Under the immense pressure of the Sea God's Light, their physical abilities and soul power have both made significant progress.

When Ye Qingshuang first arrived on the island, she was a level 66 Soul Emperor, and she broke through to level 70 half a year ago.

According to the rules of the Sea God's Trial, after reaching the bottleneck for the first time, one can obtain a divinely bestowed soul ring.

Before she absorbed the divinely bestowed soul ring, Su Mo took out the left leg soul bone he had previously obtained from Tang Hao and gave it to Ye Qing Shuang to absorb, further strengthening her physique and enabling her to withstand a higher lifespan when absorbing the divinely bestowed soul ring.

Having cultivated for so long, and having absorbed a soul bone, her soul power has reached level seventy-six.

When Ah Yin arrived, her soul power was only level 62, but now she is a level 71 Soul Saint. Since she can condense soul rings on her own, her divinely bestowed soul ring has been temporarily left behind.

As for Bibi Dong, she broke through to level 80 half a month ago and also obtained a divinely bestowed soul ring.

However, Su Mo did not let her absorb it immediately, but instead let her retain it for the time being.

Chapter 161 Death Domain, Blue Silver Domain

On the staircase of the light of the sea god.

Bibi Dong's figure is struggling to climb.

Sweat trickled down her delicate, jade-like chin, soaking her collar, and a few strands of hair clung messily to her cheeks.

At this moment, she had reached the 130th step, with only six steps left to reach the finish line.

However, with each step forward, the pressure she faced increased exponentially.

Her steps had become slow and heavy, as if her legs were made of lead.

But just as she was about to reach her limit.

An extremely cold aura suddenly spread from Bibi Dong's body.

It was a chilling aura of death, as if it came from the deepest hell, that made the air around her seem to freeze.

This is her Death Domain, a talent domain awakened from her Martial Soul Origin after she broke through to the Soul Saint Realm.

The power of the Death Domain is extremely formidable.

Once the domain is expanded, it can increase all of one's own attributes by 10%, while suppressing the enemy's all attributes by 20%.

Within the area covered by the domain, any stealth or teleportation skills will be completely rendered ineffective, leaving no place to hide.

In addition, the domain can generate a powerful mental deterrent, enhancing one's own mental strength on the one hand, and greatly weakening the enemy's mental will on the other.

Even more terrifying is that the area is permeated with the deadly poison of the Death Spider King.

The moment the domain was activated, Bibi Dong felt the pressure around her suddenly lessen by more than half.

She took a deep breath and began to walk heavily again.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Each step she took was both incredibly firm and incredibly heavy.

A moment later, with the blessing of the Death Domain, Bibi Dong finally stepped onto the last step, reaching the 136th step.

In an instant, the terrifying pressure receded like a tide, and she felt as if a tremendous burden had been lifted from her body. An unprecedented sense of ease swept over her, and even her breathing became exceptionally smooth.

The next moment, an eerie red light quietly enveloped Bibi Dong.

The red seven-pointed star pattern on her forehead shone with dazzling brilliance.

A red light curtain shot out from the seven-pointed star, shattered in mid-air, and turned into countless tiny specks of light, like fireflies filling the sky, which merged into her brow.

Immediately, a notification sound rang in Bibi Dong's mind:

"The first of the seven top-level trials, passing through the light of the sea god, has been passed. Reward: Soul power increased by one level, and the age of all soul rings increased by five hundred years."

Bibi Dong's spirit rings began to undergo an astonishing transformation.

Her first spirit ring was originally a yellow spirit ring that was over five hundred years old. At this moment, the color rapidly deepened, eventually changing from yellow to light purple.

Her second spirit ring, originally over a thousand years old, has now become more intense in color, and its quality has been significantly improved.

In the blink of an eye, Bibi Dong's soul ring configuration had been completely renewed, becoming purple, purple, purple, purple, black, black, black.

At the foot of Poseidon Mountain.

Ah Yin and Ye Qing Shuang looked up at Bibi Dong's transformation, both showing expressions of surprise.

"Sister Dong'er's first spirit ring has turned purple!" Ah Yin exclaimed softly.

"Is this the reward for the Divine Trial? It can actually increase the age of a Soul Ring? This is unbelievable."

"This reward is only given for assessments at the top level or above," Poseidon explained softly, standing to the side.

"The Black-level assessment you are undergoing will only increase your soul power after you pass this stage; there will be no reward of increased soul ring age."

"Being able to directly increase soul power is already quite good," Ye Qingshuang said contentedly. "At our level, it takes quite a while to increase soul power by one level through arduous cultivation."

This level of reward from the Divine Trial can save us at least several months of arduous training.

Ah Yin nodded in agreement.

Although their assessment is not as advanced as Bibi Dong's top-tier seventh test, the Black-level sixth test is still an extremely rare opportunity.

While the group was chatting, Bibi Dong came down the steps.

Her face beamed with undisguised joy: "Su Mo, I did it!"

Su Mo smiled and nodded, reaching out to wipe away the remaining beads of sweat from her forehead, his eyes full of praise and tenderness: "My Dong'er is so wonderful."

Bibi Dong smiled sweetly, then turned to look at A Yin and Ye Qing Shuang: "Which of you will go first?"

"I'll go first."

Ah Yin released her grip on Su Mo's arm, took a deep breath, and strode resolutely toward the Light of the Sea God.

Her assessment required her to climb 108 steps, which was much easier than Bibi Dong's 136 steps.

But for her, this is still a severe test.

After all, she was a control-type Soul Master, and her physical abilities were far inferior to Bibi Dong's Beast Soul.

Ah Yin started off very fast.

Before long, she reached the ninety-ninth step, only nine steps away from her goal.

However, as she lifted her foot to step onto the hundredth step, the pressure suddenly surged to a terrifying level.

At this moment, fine beads of sweat appeared on Ah Yin's forehead, and her body trembled slightly.

But she gritted her teeth and did her best to climb the hundredth step.

However, after stepping onto the hundredth step, the pressure made it difficult for Ah Yin to move an inch.

Her legs felt like they were nailed to the steps, and each time she lifted her foot, it took all her strength.

But she knew she couldn't give up.

This is not only a test, but also a test of one's will, and an essential path to becoming stronger.

She took another step.

101, 102, 103...

Every step was extremely difficult, and her clothes were already soaked with sweat, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered.

She quickly reached the 105th step, just three steps away from her goal.

But these last three steps seemed like an insurmountable chasm standing before them.

"Su Mo, Ah Yin is dying! You must go and help her!"

Bibi Dong held Su Mo's hand, her tone urgent.

"Don't rush."

Su Mo smiled slightly, his gaze fixed on Ah Yin.

He knew that Ah Yin had not yet reached her limit.

On the Light of the Sea God, just as Ah Yin was about to exhaust herself, a blue-silver domain suddenly unfolded around her.

In an instant, a strange scene unfolded.

On Poseidon Island, the vast expanse of blue silver grass seemed to sense some kind of summons, and simultaneously lit up with a faint blue light.

They gently swayed their leaves, as if paying homage to their emperor, and continuously channeling their life energy to Ah Yin.

Ah Yin's soul power and condition were recovering at a visible speed, and her overdrawn physical strength was also replenished.

The consciousness that had begun to blur became clear again.

She took a deep breath, her eyes rekindling with fighting spirit, and took another step.

106, 107, 108!

With the support of the domain, Ah Yin finally stepped onto the final stage.
