Seahorse Douluo faced the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, chanting something in the air. He slowly raised his hands, making a gesture of respect. The Seahorse Sacred Pillar lit up with a blue light.
"Who wants to go first?!" Seahorse Douluo asked.
Tuoba Yan said, "Pearl, go!"
Zi Zhenzhu walked behind Seahorse Douluo.
Seahorse Douluo turned around and pointed his right hand at the Zi Zhenzhu. The color of the Seahorse Sacred Pillar began to change, from blue to purple, and then quickly changed from purple to black.
Then, the black color continued to climb up the Seahorse Pillar. The color changed from black to red.
The red one hasn't climbed to the top of the Seahorse Pillar yet.
Finally, a touch of gold appeared.
"gold?"
Seahorse Douluo was taken aback.
Back when he underwent the Bo Saixi's assessment, it was a Black-level Level 4 assessment.
Even the fourth level of the Black-level exam nearly killed him during the test. Looking back now, the memory is still vivid.
The difficulty of the Seagod Trials on Seagod Island is closely related to the color of the card. White and yellow are the lowest level, followed by level one and level three, respectively. Black level trials are the highest. Only those with the talent to become a Title Douluo are qualified for the Black level trials.
There are also different levels within the Black Level assessment. Level 4 is the lowest, Level 5 is average, and Level 6 is the highest.
Among the seven titled Douluo of the Seven Sacred Pillars, only Sea Dragon Douluo obtained the sixth level of the Black Trial.
As for the Red-level Seventh Trial, only Bo Saixi on the entire Sea God Island achieved it.
Once the seven trials of the Red Rank are completed, one can immediately become the High Priest of Sea God Island, second only to the Bo Saixi and above all others. One can be on equal footing with Bo Saixi.
However, the assessment that has now emerged is the Golden Nine Tests.
Seahorse Douluo frowned and asked doubtfully, "Does Seagod Island have a gold-level assessment?"
Golden light shot out from the Seahorse Pillar, splitting into nine, forming nine luminous surfaces. Each surface bore inscriptions. The light then entered the center of Zi Zhenzhu's brow.
Zi Zhenzhu sat cross-legged, sensing the contents of the divine test.
"Of course!"
A melodious, bell-like voice rang out.
She appeared to be about 1.8 meters tall, her entire body shrouded in a bright red robe, her long, sea-blue hair cascading down her back, almost touching the ground.
Her delicate features make her look no older than thirty. Her beauty comes more from her temperament: noble, elegant, and warm.
In her right hand, she held a three-meter-long scepter. The scepter was golden, just like the gold that had appeared in the sky earlier. It was engraved with magical patterns, and the head of the scepter had a diamond-shaped protrusion that resembled a spear. Five inches below the tip of the spear, a diamond-shaped golden gem was inlaid.
Zi Zhenzhu slowly opened her eyes.
Bo Saixi said with some excitement, "I never imagined that the person I've been waiting for would be you, Zi Zhenzhu!"
Zi Zhenzhu was a notorious pirate on the high seas.
There are very few Soul Douluos on the high seas; they are extremely rare. Almost all of them have joined Seagod Island, and as for Title Douluo powerhouses, they are practically nonexistent.
Zi Zhenzhu sometimes trades with Sea God Island and has business dealings with them.
Bo Saixi guarded Sea God Island, keeping a close eye on the movements in the sea, and she knew of the existence of the Zi Zhenzhu.
Bo Saixi's eyes held a murderous glint.
"murderous look?"
Tuoba Yan felt a chill run down his spine. Bo Saixi disliked Zi Zhenzhu.
Xie Yue's gaze swept towards Tuoba Yan. He had clearly also noticed the murderous intent in Bo Saixi's eyes, an intent that even Zi Zhenzhu, Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and Seahorse Douluo had failed to detect.
Didn't Bo Saixi say that Zi Zhenzhu was the one she was waiting for? Why then did Bo Saixi kill Zi Zhenzhu?
Tuoba Yan noticed Xie Yue's gaze. He offered no explanation.
He knew that Bo Saixi was now nearing the end of her life, but she did not want to sacrifice her own life, nor did she want to die for the Zi Zhenzhu to obtain a divine position.
Why?
Bo Saixi had unfulfilled wishes.
She still harbors longing and obsession. She has missed and waited for Tang Chen for many years, but has yet to return to Sea God Island to see her.
She wanted to see Tang Chen before she died.
"Senior, Tang Chen is in the City of Slaughter!" Tuoba Yan suddenly said.
The name Tang Chen made Bo Saixi's body tremble slightly.
After many years, she finally received news of the person she had been longing for.
Even though Bo Saixi tried to hide her thoughts, her eyes betrayed her. Her heart pounded with excitement, her eyes trembled. If it weren't for her status and her excellent cultivation, Bo Saixi would have excitedly grabbed Tuoba Yan's arm and asked about Tang Chen's whereabouts.
"Is he still alive?"
"It's practically the same as being dead."
"Is he not doing well?"
"His body has been possessed by the Nine-Headed Dark Gold Bat King, and his soul is in a state of slumber."
"Is there any hope?"
"Saving him is tantamount to harming him. Once his consciousness awakens and he defeats the Nine-Headed Dark Gold Bat King, the latter, while in control of his body, will have consumed far too much Yellow Spring Dew. Yellow Spring Dew is a slow-acting poison; if consumed for too long, there's no way to save him. At most, he can only survive for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn after regaining consciousness. After that, Tang Chen will surely die!"
Hearing Tuoba Yan's words, Bo Saixi frowned slightly.
After some thought, Tuoba Yan decided to grant the wish of the pitiful person before him.
Once upon a time, Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu landed on Seagod Island and met the beautiful Bo Saixi. Bo Saixi took a liking to Tang Chen and declared that she would marry whoever became a god first.
Qian Daoliu is the high priest of the Angel God and cannot become a god. Tang Chen, however, has the hope of becoming a god.
After leaving Sea God Island, Tang Chen worked hard to become a god, and never saw Bo Saixi again.
When Tang Chen completed the eighth trial of the Asura God, he realized that the trial he had received was not a pure Asura Nine Trials; it was mixed with the evil thoughts of the Rakshasa God. The Rakshasa God had interfered with Tang Chen.
When Tang Chen completed the eighth trial and killed the Nine-Headed Dark Gold Bat King, the latter's consciousness, interfered with by the Rakshasa God's evil intentions, seized control of Tang Chen's body while Tang Chen was severely injured. Tang Chen's soul fell into a coma.
After learning the truth, the Asura God went to the Rakshasa God's temple and killed the Rakshasa God. This is why the Rakshasa God did not have a high priest, especially when Bibi Dong obtained the Rakshasa God's position, she did not acquire any decent Rakshasa God techniques.
Bibi Dong became the Rakshasa Goddess, and all of her Rakshasa Goddess skills were developed through her own understanding.
Bo Saixi's face was filled with despair. "It seems I won't live to see him!"
Bo Saixi suddenly realized that she would not live to see Tang Chen return as a god and marry her before she died. Her destiny was to sacrifice her life for the next Sea God and open the passage to the Sea God's Temple.
In this world, who would want to die if they could live a good life? It is precisely because they cannot live that they die.
Bo Saixi also wanted to live. That's why she promised to marry whoever became a god, in order to break the curse that her high priesthood had to sacrifice her life for the next Bo Saixi.
Tuoba Yan asked, "Senior, do you really like Tang Chen?"
