Chapter 658: The First Trial That Shakes the Past and Dazzles the Present

"Ahem."

Haima Douluo was determined to ignore Xiao Wu and not listen to her nonsensical words.

He slowly raised both hands, his face full of piety.

He brought his hands up to his chest, palms facing each other with a half-foot gap, and a faint blue light slowly appeared in the center of his palms.

"Hum, hum."

When the blue light filled Haima Douluo's palms, the radiance suddenly burst forth, causing the entire Sea Horse Sacred Pillar platform to be suffused with a clear blue glow.

"Swoosh!"

Immediately following, a flash of light appeared at the base of the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar, and a blue beam spread up along the carvings on the pillar, reaching the top in the blink of an eye.

Haima Douluo turned around, faced Xiao Wu, and pointed his right hand toward her body.

"Boom!"

A blue pillar of light descended from the sky, enveloping Xiao Wu's body.

Xiao Wu, bathed in that pillar of light, looked somewhat dazed; clearly, she did not feel anything.

"Rumble!"

But at this very moment, the pale blue Trident mark on Xiao Wu's forehead suddenly lit up.

At the same time, a blood-colored radiance shot up into the sky from the entire Sea Sacred Pillar.

"Heavens! It's a Top-tier Trial!"

Haima Douluo, Hailong Douluo, and the others widened their eyes, because a blood-red Assessment meant that as long as one passed, they could obtain Poseixi's position as High Priest!

"No," Poseixi suddenly spoke softly, "it's not over yet."

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

Before her voice had even faded, the Sea Sacred Pillars in the other six directions of Sea God Island also shot out blood-colored pillars of light, heading straight for the sky.

"Hum, hum!"

The massive pillars of light converged together onto Xiao Wu, and simultaneously, through the refraction of the Trident on her forehead, they enveloped the bewildered Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong, who were watching the show.

The seven Sea within the Seas boiled!

At this moment, the entire Sea within the Sea suddenly surged with giant waves reaching a hundred meters high, rising vertically.

Within the giant waves, an intense, misty blue light erupted.

The changes were not yet over; the entire Sea God Island seemed to tremble along with the red light shooting into the sky.

Immediately after, the pillars of light converged at a single point in the air.

The next moment, the blood color faded.

"Swoosh! —"

At that point, three golden rays of light, brilliant to the extreme, descended from the sky.

Everything at this moment seemed to have entered a state of absolute stillness, with only that brilliant, magnificent light, like a central point between heaven and earth, descending from the sky.

It fell toward the foreheads of the three people simultaneously!

The golden light gradually faded, first from the sky and the Sea within the Sea, then from all directions.

And the place where all that golden light finally converged was the center of the three people's foreheads.

There, it left behind a golden Trident mark.

The faint golden Trident brought with it a sense of noble majesty, as if looking down upon all living beings.

Hailong Douluo and the other Title Douluo of Sea God Island were all stunned.

"Sea God Nine Trials..."

Poseixi's eyes trembled: "And all three of them obtained the Sea God Nine Trials at the same time... how could such a thing happen..."

"Crackle!"

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred in Qin Jian.

A golden-red light suddenly burst from within his body, roaring in anger as if it were a king who had been provoked.

"Thud!"

The manic fluctuation blasted everyone around Qin Jian away.

Fortunately, Xiaobai caught Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, preventing them from being injured.

"Crack!"

A fissure appeared on the golden Trident on Qin Jian's forehead.

From Poseixi to Hainv Douluo, everyone lost their voices.

"Crack... crack... crack..."

The sound of the Trident shattering was exceptionally clear, as if it were ringing in everyone's ears one by one.

"Bang."

Finally, with a light sound, the Trident completely crumbled.

Everyone: "..."

"Hmm..."

After a long while, all the fluctuations subsided.

Qin Jian touched his forehead and said in a very indifferent tone: "A rule told me that these Sea God Nine Trials are not worthy of assessing me."

"Not, not worthy?!"

The people of Sea God Island were completely shut down.

After a long while, Hailong Douluo and the others were still as if in a dream, floating about, not knowing where they were.

"Whew..."

It was Poseixi who let out a soft breath, looking at Qin Jian with a deep gaze: "No wonder it is you..."

"Alright, from now on, until the two of them complete the Sea God Nine Trials, the three of them are all honored guests of Sea God Island. No one is to neglect or offend them. Aside from not being allowed to assist them in completing their Assessments, satisfy their conditions as much as possible," she instructed.

"Yes, High Priest," Hailong Douluo and the others bowed and said.

"But High Priest, according to the rules of our Sea God Island, those who have not received an Assessment from Lord Sea God cannot remain on Sea God Island."

Seeing her close friend Xiaobai excitedly crowding up to Qin Jian again, Hainv Douluo, the Mermaid Princess, was furious.

Even though she knew that Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, having received the Sea God Nine Trials, would be untouchable on Sea God Island, she still couldn't help but want to drive Qin Jian away.

Poseixi glanced at her, just about to speak.

But Haima Douluo suddenly said with an incredibly strange expression: "No, this Soul Beast King must stay."

"Ah? Why?!"

Hainv Douluo pouted like a little girl.

The muscles on Haima Douluo's face twitched incessantly, while his strange gaze couldn't help but dart toward Poseixi: "That, Lord Sea God prompted me through the Sea Horse Sacred Pillar that the final trial of their two Assessments is related to this Soul Beast King, so he cannot leave."

Once Hainv Douluo heard it was what the Sea God said, she instantly fell silent.

Poseixi, however, looked at Haima Douluo: "You saw that their Assessment is related to me?"

She had clearly noticed the strangeness in Haima's expression.

"Ahem, that, I only saw their first Assessment, it... it is somewhat related," Haima Douluo's expression was already becoming hard to control: "And it is very... very strange..."

"What is it?"

Even Poseixi was somewhat interested.

And as she asked this, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu both closed their eyes to check their own first Assessment.

"What?!"

The next moment, the two beautiful girls simultaneously covered their small mouths in a cute manner.

"How could it be such a strange Assessment?!"

The two voices leaked out from between their small hands.

Haima Douluo's cheeks were twitching violently.

If not for his deep-seated pious faith, he would have thought Lord Sea God was intentionally playing a prank...

"Hey, hey! What exactly is the Assessment?"

Xiaobai and the Mermaid Princess urged simultaneously: "Hurry up and tell us!"

Haima Douluo took a step back, not daring to even look at Poseixi, and only said: "Ask them, they know it themselves."

Swish, swish, swish...

All eyes were focused on Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, and even Poseixi was no exception.

The Sea God Nine Trials, what kind of earth-shattering first Assessment could it be to make Haima Douluo's expression so bizarre?

Ning Rongrong glanced at Qin Jian, then glanced at Poseixi, holding it in for a long while before saying crossly: "First trial of the Sea God Nine Trials: Persuade Sea God Douluo Poseixi to accept the Soul Beast King Qin Jian moving into the Sea God Hall together."

Poseixi: "???"

Qin Jian: "???"

Everyone else: "???"
