Shui Bing'er asked, "If Sister Zhenzhu succeeds, will we receive double the reward?"
Tuoba Yan shook his head slightly, "That depends on the Sea God's decision!"
The sea god has the final right to interpret the divine test.
Whether Tuoba Yan and Shui Bing'er will ultimately receive double the reward depends entirely on the Sea God's decision.
"Boom!"
As they waited, the entire Sea God Temple visibly trembled.
The trident on the platform hummed and flew out of its groove, embedding itself in the ground in front of Zi Zhenzhu.
Zi Zhenzhu opened her eyes and exclaimed joyfully, "It's done!"
At the same time, a notification sound rang in the minds of Tuoba Yan, Shui Bing'er, and Zi Zhenzhu.
"Help Zi Zhenzhu pull out the trident, and the trident has recognized Zi Zhenzhu as its new master. Complete the seventh trial, complete all red-level trials, and the reward is the Sea God Domain, a 5000-year increase in the power of each soul ring, and a soul power increase to level ninety-eight!"
"Level 98!"
Perhaps because Tuoba Yan was already a Title Douluo, his soul power level did not increase by four levels, but instead directly broke through to level 98.
If Tuoba Yan increases his soul power by one level, he will become a level 99 Limit Douluo, advancing to become the fifth Limit Douluo in the soul master world, after Qian Daoliu, Tang Chen, Bo Saixi, and Bibi Dong.
Limit Douluo is not what Tuoba Yan pursues in his cultivation.
Having come to Sea God Island to undergo divine testing, he confirmed that the energy he possessed was not soul power but divine power.
Because he has already obtained divine power, it is impossible for him to obtain the divine position of other gods.
what to do?
How can Tuoba Yan become a god?
Level 100 is the ceiling for humanity. The only way to break through is to either inherit someone else's divine position or gather the power of faith from believers.
Tuoba Yan is now wondering if he will encounter a bottleneck when his soul power level reaches level ninety-nine.
What exactly was his path to godhood?
Shui Bing'er waited until the golden light on Zi Zhenzhu faded, then walked to her side and asked, "Sister Zhenzhu, I have completed all my tests. What was the content of your eighth test?"
"Gather all six soul bones, obtain nine soul rings, and slay the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!" said Zi Zhenzhu.
Like Tang San in the original storyline, the eighth trial of the Zi Zhenzhu also involves collecting six soul bones, obtaining nine soul rings, and slaying the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. The only difference is that it does not require reviving Xiao Wu.
A ripple spread through the space, and Bo Saixi appeared beside Zi Zhenzhu and the others. She asked Tuoba Yan, "What are your plans next?"
"Leave Sea God Island!" Tuoba Yan said.
"You are also a priest, and you have the power to grant others permission to leave Seagod Island!" Bo Saixi's words answered a question in Tuoba Yan's mind.
It turns out that being tested by the Sea God does not mean one cannot leave Sea God Island.
Only those who pass the examination and become priests of the Sea God, or those authorized by a priest, are allowed to leave Sea God Island; otherwise, the Sea God's followers are not permitted to leave Sea God Island.
Bo Saixi continued, "You have already obtained the Sea God's Domain. You can make whoever you want leave leave without consulting me!"
"Thank you for your understanding, senior." When Tuoba Yan completed the seventh Red-level test and obtained the Sea God Domain, he also obtained the method to grant others permission to leave Sea God Island.
This method of granting others permission to leave Sea God Island is similar to the Slaughter King in Slaughter City, who exceptionally grants others the title of Slaughter God.
Being associated with deities is both a blessing and a burden.
In the pantheon of Douluo Star, once someone becomes a follower of a god, they become a prisoner of a region. For example, the fallen in the City of Slaughter, or the followers of the Sea God on Seagod Island.
If Tuoba Yan had to choose, he would prefer the belief in gods and believers on Earth.
Not only did Tuoba Yan obtain the Sea God's Domain, but Shui Bing'er also obtained the Sea God's Domain.
The Seven Red-Level Trials on Sea God Island are similar to the Hell Road in Slaughter City. Once the trials are completed, one can obtain a domain.
(PS: In the original novel, Author Tang Jia San Shao only allowed Bo Saixi and Tang San to possess the Sea God's Domain in order to highlight the protagonist Tang San's strength and uniqueness. Some secondary creations have been made here. It doesn't make sense for the Second and Third Priests of the Sea God not to have the Sea God's Domain.)
If Tuoba Yan and Shui Bing'er become priests but do not master some of the Sea God's supernatural powers, then what difference is there between them and ordinary guardians of the sacred pillars?
Egg thinks the original setting here is unreasonable.
Tang Jia San Shao gave all the good things to Tang San. The supporting characters received nothing. Not even a domain.
This is a fan fiction by Egg, suggesting that anyone who completes the seven trials of the Red Rank, similar to the Hell Road, can obtain a domain. Only Red Rank examinees can obtain the Sea God Domain. Please don't criticize if you don't like it. Egg writes novels simply to make a living; there's no other purpose behind it.
Egg thanks everyone for being kind in their comments!
Wishing everyone all your dreams come true, family happiness, and good health!
Tuoba Yan paused for a moment, then asked, "Senior, have you made up your mind? Will you continue to stay on Seagod Island, or go to the God Realm to become a divine soul?"
As they were about to part ways, Tuoba Yan did not forget his promise.
There was no agreement between him and Bo Saixi.
The agreement is just a piece of paper; it can be torn up at will. On the surface, it appears to be binding, but in reality, it has no binding force whatsoever.
For the strong, there's no need to sign agreements like ordinary people. Whether or not a promise is kept depends entirely on the other person's intentions and character.
Tuoba Yan hadn't forgotten the verbal promise he made to Bo Saixi when he received the divinely bestowed soul ring. If Bo Saixi didn't want to die, he would lend her the dog talisman. Even if Bo Saixi sacrificed herself, she would remain alive.
Bo Saixi stared intently at Tuoba Yan, thought for a moment, and said, "Divine Soul!"
"Alright!" Tuoba Yan said.
"Stay at the Sea God's Temple tonight!" Bo Saixi said, then suddenly turned her back to Tuoba Yan. "You are now a priestess of the Sea God and are qualified to reside in the Sea God's Temple!"
"No. I've been away from the mainland for a while, and I need to go back and visit," Tuoba Yan said.
"So eager?" Bo Saixi suddenly turned around, staring at Tuoba Yan with reluctant eyes.
"Hmm." With his grandfather Tuoba Xi on his mind, Tuoba Yan called out to the people around him, and everyone left Sea God Mountain.
While aboard the Zi Zhenzhu, Shui Bing'er paused, gazing at the Seagod Island receding into the distance. Sitting on the deck, she suddenly whispered, "Brother Tuoba, I feel that Senior Bo Saixi has feelings for you."
"What nonsense are you thinking?" Tuoba Yan chuckled.
...
In the distance, on Sea God Island, atop Sea God Mountain.
Bo Saixi stood at the highest point, gazing at the ships that were getting further and further away. He sighed softly and said with a bitter smile, "What a tragedy! At the age when I'm almost old and frail, I've actually developed romantic feelings for a twenty-year-old boy!"
