Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

Poseidon also stood suspended in mid-air, staring at the five-clawed golden dragon. After confirming that the five-clawed golden dragon was Chen Luo's martial soul, she slowly disappeared.

Chen Luo immediately recalled the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, and then looked at the steps leading to the top of Sea God Mountain.

Having successfully advanced to the Soul Saint realm, it's time to clear the Sea God's Light and begin the next trial.

"How far have you progressed in traversing the Light of the Sea God? Are you confident you can complete it?" Chen Luo asked.

Flanders said, "It could have been done long ago; I've been waiting for you."

Chen Luo said, "Then let's begin!"

"Okay!" Flander and Liu Erlong both nodded.

Flander said, "I'll go first. I know you two are strong, so I don't want to put too much pressure on you later."

After saying that, Flander walked towards the steps and began to slowly ascend them.

Flander made it through the first two hundred steps smoothly, but after that, it became particularly difficult. However, he eventually made it to the two hundred and sixteen steps required for the assessment and completed the test.

As Flander reached the 216th step, a golden light fell upon him, raising his soul power level by one level—a reward for the Black-level assessment.

Then it was Liu Erlong's turn to take on the challenge. She seemed to have it much easier than Flander throughout the process, after all, the fire dragon was more resilient to pressure than the cat owl.

Under the watchful eyes of Chen Luo and Flander, Liu Erlong reached the 216th step with great ease and was also blessed by the golden light, raising her soul power level by one level. However, Liu Erlong did not stop there but continued to move forward, finally stopping at the 249th step.

Chen Luo was the last to take on the challenge. Golden light shimmered around him, and he climbed the steps more easily than Flander and Liu Erlong.

In no time, Chen Luo completed the assessment requirements and reached the 272nd step. Golden light descended, and Chen Luo's soul power level was also improved. In addition, red light emanated from the low-level assessment mark on Chen Luo's forehead and then enveloped Chen Luo's entire body.

Chen Luo could clearly feel himself becoming stronger, and a majestic voice resounded in his mind—

The first of the seven supreme trials has been passed by traversing the light of the Sea God! Soul power has increased by one level, and the age of all soul rings has increased by five hundred years!

The rewards for the first test are in place, consistent with the plot in the book. The top-level test not only increases the level of soul power, but also the age of the soul ring. Although it's not much, it should be enough. An increase of 500 years in the age of the soul ring is quite significant for the improvement of soul skills, making them more powerful and requiring less energy.

Completing the assessment and receiving the reward did not stop Chen Luo's progress; he continued to move forward.

Chen Luo completed the more than two hundred steps in less than three minutes; the immense pressure from the Sea God's Light seemed to be nothing to him.

Chen Luo quickly reached the three hundred steps. It was only when he got there that he started to struggle. As the number of steps increased, he struggled more and more, and each step became increasingly difficult.

Finally, Chen Luo broke through 399 steps and reached 400 steps, where he stopped.

In fact, Chen Luo still had the strength to continue the challenge, but he didn't want to push himself to the limit. He was already very satisfied with reaching four hundred steps.

He leaped down the four hundred steps and reunited with Flander and Liu Erlong.

At this moment, Flander and Liu Erlong's faces showed not only shock but also obvious joy.

"It has to be you. You actually managed to climb four hundred steps. It seems that your strength has increased tremendously after entering the Soul Saint level!" Flander laughed.

Chen Luo nodded: "Yes, there has been a significant improvement."

Liu Erlong then smiled and talked about the reward: "This Seagod Island is indeed a great place. With our current strength as Soul Douluos, it would take at least three to five years, and at most ten or twenty years, to improve our Soul Power level by one level. But here, we can get such a huge improvement just by completing a test. It's really too surprising!"

Flander agreed: "Yes, especially for a Soul Master like me with mediocre talent, any method that can improve my strength is extremely important!"

Chen Luo said, "Brother Fu, don't belittle yourself. With your talent, becoming a Title Douluo is only a matter of time. If your talent is considered mediocre, then most Soul Masters are useless."

Flanders said, "Hearing you say that makes me feel much better."

Flander knew perfectly well the extent of his talent, and he knew his good friend was comforting him, but he was already satisfied.

Chen Luo's gaze then fell upon the ring-shaped sea near Poseidon Mountain, and he said, "My second test is to break through the ring-shaped blockade, yours should be the same, right?"

Flanders nodded: "This is also my second test."

Liu Erlong said, "Mine too. Shall we start the challenge now?"

Chen Luo said, "Yes, let's go all out."

"Why don't you take a break? You just climbed such high steps, the pressure must have been immense, right?" Liu Erlong asked with concern.

Chen Luo said, "It's okay, I'm in good condition."

"I'll go first."

Chen Luo rose into the air, enveloped in golden energy, and then rushed outwards at an incredible speed.

The sea spirit beasts in the ring-shaped sea immediately launched an attack on Chen Luo, but Chen Luo's body was particularly agile, and he avoided most of the sea spirit beasts' attacks. After advancing about a hundred meters, a five-clawed golden dragon more than thirty meters long quietly appeared under Chen Luo's feet.

Chen Luo stood on the five-clawed golden dragon, hands behind his back, and continued forward.

As soon as the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon appeared, the relatively weaker sea spirit beasts were directly intimidated by its oppressive aura. The fear that came from their very souls made them dare not attack, and they all subconsciously retreated into the deep sea. Only one huge shark charged out fiercely, heading straight for the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon in mid-air.

That's right, it's the King of the Great White Shark with a 100,000-year-old Demon Soul!

Chapter 239 The Second Test, Passed!

The Demon Soul Great White Shark King is over twenty meters long, with an incredibly robust physique, and its mouth full of sharp teeth seems capable of tearing apart anything.

As the Demon Soul Great White Shark King leaped out, a strong blue-gray light suddenly erupted from its body, instantly enveloping and merging into the entire ring-shaped sea, and terrifying energy fluctuations burst forth.

The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon moved forward very fast. Although it avoided the impact of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, it was still affected by the terrifying energy released by the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, and its speed slowed down a lot. After the Demon Soul Great White Shark King fell into the sea, it rushed out again, this time stirring up a huge wave that swept towards the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and Chen Luo.

That bluish-gray light was the Demonic Shark Domain of the Demonic Soul Great White Shark King. Within the domain, the Demonic Soul Great White Shark King could greatly enhance himself by drawing upon the power of the seawater and gain the ability to control the seawater.

Facing the attack of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, Chen Luo remained very calm. His fifth soul ring lit up, and Dragon Concealment was activated.

The enormous body of the five-clawed golden dragon suddenly vanished, along with Chen Luo's figure.

The Demon Soul Great White Shark King's attack once again missed its target, while the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon and Chen Luo, who had entered stealth mode, rushed outwards at an extremely fast speed.

However, due to the influence of the Demon Shark Domain, the distance of several hundred meters that could be traversed in an instant seemed incredibly far.

The Demon Soul Great White Shark King entered the circular sea. In the seawater, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King moved forward at a faster speed. As the Demon Soul Great White Shark King moved forward, the seawater formed a wall of water that moved towards the Demon Soul Great White Shark King from the edge. The Demon Soul Great White Shark King could not detect the location of Chen Luo and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon. This method of blocking them from all directions was the simplest and most effective.

"boom!!!"

The water wall exploded after advancing more than a hundred meters, and the figures of the five-clawed golden dragon and Chen Luo reappeared.

The Demon Soul Great White Shark King, rapidly advancing through the seawater, launched another attack. The entire ring of sea trembled, and a ring of blue light waves was released from the Demon Soul Great White Shark King's massive head. This was the Demon Soul Great White Shark King's mental attack technique, called the Despair Light Wave.

The blue light wave instantly caught up with Chen Luo and the five-clawed golden dragon. This time, Chen Luo finally did not choose to continue to escape, but turned around to fight.

Golden light burst forth from Chen Luo and the five-clawed golden dragon. A sacred and powerful aura condensed around Chen Luo, and his entire aura suddenly surged. At the same time, two golden beams of light shot out from Chen Luo's eyes and headed towards the blue light wave.

Dragon's Domain: Greatly enhances one's own strength, granting divine power.

Dragon's Gaze: A mental attack skill derived from a three-million-year-old dragon skull, unleashing an extremely powerful mental impact.

"Om..."

The golden light collided with the blue light waves, creating ripples that then exploded, with an invisible force spreading outwards.

Chen Luo let out a muffled groan, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

On the other side, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King froze, coughed up blood, and fell into a brief state of dizziness.

Although Chen Luo had a splitting headache, he still seized the opportunity and accelerated the five-clawed golden dragon, successfully breaking out of the ring-shaped sea.

After rushing out of the ring-shaped sea, Chen Luo immediately shouted towards the direction of Poseidon Mountain: "Hurry up!"

After shouting, Chen Luo rubbed his head and sat on the five-clawed golden dragon, his head feeling like it was about to explode.

Even though his overall strength had been greatly enhanced, and with the blessing of the Dragon Domain, he used the Dragon's Gaze, a soul skill from a three-million-year-old soul bone, he still suffered a huge backlash.

Chen Luo is currently only a Soul Saint. Even though his spiritual power has reached an extremely abnormal level due to the blessing of the Divine Dragon Soul and the Dragon Skull, there is still a gap between him and the 100,000-year-old Soul Beast Demon Soul Great White Shark King. His true strength is there, and it is still difficult to surpass him.

At Chen Luo's call, Flander and Liu Erlong set off one after the other.

Flander walked ahead, appearing particularly decisive, directly activating his Martial Soul True Body and adding his eighth soul skill, Yin Nether Power.

With the blessing of the dark power, Flander, who had transformed into a giant cat-owl, was covered by a layer of dark green energy, which greatly increased his speed. He flew hundreds of meters in an instant and broke out of the ring sea with great ease.

Liu Erlong, following Flander's example, unleashed her full-force attack, activating her Martial Soul True Form and transforming into a giant fire dragon, flying directly to the other side.

However, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King had already reacted and immediately launched an attack on Liu Erlong, who had transformed into a fire dragon.

The waves rushed toward the fire dragon. Liu Erlong knew that she could not get too entangled with the 100,000-year-old soul beast below, otherwise her progress would be even more difficult.

Like Flander, Liu Erlong also decisively activated her eighth soul skill, Blazing Tide.

The flames on Liu Erlong's body instantly became even stronger, increasing by more than one level. At the same time, Liu Erlong's aura also surged, instantly surpassing the aura that an ordinary Soul Douluo could possess, and even approaching that of an ordinary Title Douluo.

Liu Erlong's eighth spirit ring was taken from the 80,000-year-old spirit beast, the Flaming Dragon Lizard. The Flaming Dragon Lizard's specialty is burning its life force to gain powerful strength. Liu Erlong's Flaming Tide, on the other hand, gains its strength by burning its spirit power.

Burning soul power here only accelerates the consumption of soul power and does not affect Liu Erlong's soul power level. Of course, using powerful forces that do not belong to oneself will always come at a price, and Liu Erlong will fall into a period of weakness as a result.

After the raging inferno was activated, the seawater that was approaching Liu Erlong began to evaporate rapidly from ten meters away.

Indeed, water overcomes fire, but if the fire is strong enough, it can evaporate water instantly.

Riding on this momentum, Liu Erlong charged straight forward. The Demon Soul Great White Shark King seemed somewhat powerless. Affected by Chen Luo's Dragon Gaze, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King's current state was already unstable, making it difficult to stop Liu Erlong's breakthrough.

In just a few breaths, Liu Erlong also arrived at the other side of the Ring Sea, having ended the Blazing Tide and the Martial Soul True Body. Her face was slightly pale, but she had finally completed the assessment.

As the golden beam of light descended, Liu Erlong's soul power level increased by another level, and the assessment reward arrived.

Similarly, Chen Luo and Flander both received Soul Power Level rewards after completing the assessment.

In addition, Chen Luo passed the top-level assessment and received an additional 500-year boost to the age of his soul ring.

Now Chen Luo's spirit rings are all purple, and his strength has been enhanced once again.

The key to completing the second assessment was to take things by surprise.

Chen Luo's Dragon's Gaze had a significant impact on the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, which created an opportunity for all three of them to clear the level.

As for why Chen Luo didn't use the Martial Soul Fusion Technique with Flander and Liu Erlong to pass the test, it was mainly to maximize the test rewards. If the test was too easy to pass, the rewards would be weakened. If the three of them passed the test alone, the minimum guaranteed reward would definitely be there.

In addition, Chen Luo was worried that if he and the others used their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, they might accidentally kill the Demon Soul Great White Shark King.

After reaching the Soul Saint realm, Chen Luo already possessed a true five-clawed golden dragon. With the added enhancement of his Martial Soul Fusion Skill, even a 100,000-year-old soul beast was merely a toy.

Chapter 240 Assessment Changes

After completing the second assessment, Chen Luo and his group immediately received information about the third assessment.

Just like in the book, this third test is the Tidal Body Refinement.

Chen Luo had a general idea of ​​the Tidal Body Refinement technique, but Flander and Liu Erlong had no idea about it.

"Tidal Body Tempering? What kind of test is this?" Flander asked in confusion.
