Chapter 91: The Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island

Sea God Island can be said to be a special world of Spirit Masters and Spirit Beast forests, or it can be said to be the world of Sea Soul Masters.

There is a mountain on the island named Sea God Mountain.

On Sea God Mountain lies a very long staircase, for Spirit Masters coming to undergo the assessment—"Crossing, Sea God's Light."

Inside there are also seven Sacred Pillar Platforms of varying sizes and Sacred Pillars, corresponding to the seven Qi Sheng Zhu Guardians, and the palace where the Great High Priest Bo Saixi and her servants reside—the Sea God Temple.

Sea God Island has a total of seven Qi Sheng Zhu and seven cities; each city has about a thousand people, all being Sea God's most loyal believers. Among them are more than three thousand Spirit Masters, including only the three thousand five hundred Sea God Warriors who passed the trial and were chosen to guard Sea God.

The Spirit Hall once dispatched two thousand Spirit Masters to this island, attempting to annex the Spirit Masters there.

The result was that they went but never returned; under the cover of the Angel Legion, fewer than a hundred managed to return alive, and two Title Douluo were lost.

Zhou Yu and others stepped onto Sea God Island and immediately felt its uniqueness.

Theoretically, by winter, even though the maritime climate provides some warming effect to the island and the temperature is higher than inland, it should still carry a chill.

However, when they stepped onto this island named Sea God Island, the first feeling that struck them was warmth, as if they were in a gentle spring day.

Gazing into the distance, Sea God Island was covered in lush greenery; this vast and boundless island made one feel as if returning to Douluo Dalu.

Wherever the eye could see, there was endless greenery, with no boundaries to be found.

The plant species on the island were diverse; many strange vegetation left one dazzled, and many were unheard of.

The sea breeze, carrying moisture and freshness, rushed to their faces; the fresh air penetrated straight to the heart, the air was filled with a faint scent of sea salt, and the wind seemed to mix with the ocean's whisper and gentle call.

Looking at this shocking scenery, the excitement in everyone's eyes gradually gave way to intoxication.

Oscar gently embraced Ning Rongrong's fragrant shoulder and said softly, "Rongrong, I really want to spend the rest of my life with you here..."

Seeing this, Dai Mubai also took Zhu Zhuqing's jade hand and promised, "Zhuqing! After we finish what must be done, let us grow old together on this island, okay?"

Having endured the cruel trial of the Wolf Bandit Group, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's minds were now completely calm; regarding the world outside that was as splendid as brocade, not a single ripple arose in their hearts.

"..."

Tang San looked at his two good brothers, each embracing their beloved.

But Xiao Wu had left him forever.

He originally wanted to turn his sights toward Ning Rongrong, but upon hearing Oscar say that Ning Rongrong had already been intimate with Zhou Yu for countless nights, he instantly felt a green light over his head.

Therefore, he completely abandoned the thought of shifting his affection to Ning Rongrong.

Indeed, only Hot Dog Wang's love for Ning Rongrong was true love.

The moist and fresh air, like sweet dew, penetrated the heart, making one utterly intoxicated.

However, a slightly surprised voice unexpectedly came from deep within the forest ahead.

"Who is there?"

Accompanying the low shout, seven or eight figures suddenly leaped out from the woods, blocking everyone's path.

These people had different appearances, but they shared one common characteristic: their clothes.

It was attire similar to combat gear, pale yellow; the oldest was about forty, and the younger ones were about the same age as Zhou Yu and the others.

On Sea God Island, Sea Soul Masters are distinguished by the color of their clothes.

But it is not based on soul power level, but rather the difficulty they endured during their Sea God trial.

The higher the difficulty of the trial passed, the higher the status on Sea God Island.

These Sea Soul Masters in yellow clothes before them were obviously the second rank, just above the White-Clothed Soul Master. Above them were purple clothes, black clothes, and red clothes.

It is said that on Sea God Island, the only one qualified to wear red clothes is the Great High Priest.

The strongest on Sea God Island, Bo Saixi, who possesses the Sea God Spirit.

Dai Mubai, being the oldest, stepped forward and said loudly, "We admire the fame of Sea God Island and hope to pass the trial to join Sea God Island."

The leader of the eight opposite them was the oldest middle-aged man; he looked Dai Mubai up and down, frowned slightly, and asked, "Are you land Spirit Masters?"

Dai Mubai was stunned: "Can you tell that?"

The middle-aged man spoke indifferently, "You might not be able to perceive it, but we Sea Soul Masters can see through everything. Sea God Island does not welcome you; although we do not know how you boarded Sea God Island, leave as you came. Otherwise, do not blame us for being impolite."

Tang San walked to Dai Mubai's side, frowned slightly, and asked, "Is it not possible to join Sea God Island by passing the trial? Why do you reject people from a thousand miles away?"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, "It seems you know something about Sea God Island. I am telling you to leave for your own good; land Spirit Masters simply cannot pass the trial to join our Sea God Island. If you do not want to die, then leave."

Tang San and Dai Mubai exchanged a glance; both felt a slight goodwill toward this middle-aged man.

"Senior, since we have come, we will not leave easily. Whatever the trial, we hope to try it. If we do not have this courage, then we are not worthy of being Spirit Masters."

Tang San's words were spoken with firm determination; his voice carried a vibration filled with spiritual power. Except for the middle-aged man speaking with them, the other seven Sea Soul Masters subconsciously stepped back two steps.

The middle-aged man frowned: "You must think clearly; once you accept the trial, there is no possibility of withdrawing midway."

Except for Ning Rongrong, everyone said in unison, "We accept the trial."

The middle-aged man scanned everyone meaningfully, then turned sideways and whispered a few words to a young Sea Soul Master in a yellow robe beside him; the words seemed to contain a strange rhythm, like low sound waves humming in the air.

Upon hearing this, the young Sea Soul Master responded respectfully, then turned around, and his figure swiftly merged into the surrounding scenery.

Only then did the middle-aged man face everyone: "I hope you do not regret it. Follow me."

Having said this, he led those yellow-clothed Sea Soul Masters, turned around, and walked into the woods.

"Since we have come here, we must pass the trial!"

Zhou Yu and Tang Ren and others exchanged glances, followed these yellow-clothed Sea Soul Masters, and entered the woods with high alertness.

The middle-aged man walking ahead suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at Tang San with burning eyes, warning, "Do not try to use spiritual power to explore anything; this is Sea God Island. Everything here is protected by Lord Sea God."

Tang San was shocked in his heart; this was merely a yellow-clothed level Sea Soul Master on Sea God Island.

He could actually sense his spiritual power detection? Or was there some special energy here that allowed him to sense the released spiritual power? Not long after, they passed through the woods.

The scene before them instantly shocked everyone.

What appeared before their eyes was a pool of water.

It was a pool like the Sea Within a Sea; even more strangely, this inland pool, which should have been extremely calm, was actually surging like the ocean, moving without wind.

Encircling this clear pool is a lush, dense forest, its expanse estimated to reach about five hundred meters.

At the center of the pool stands a triangular platform, seemingly a perfect fusion of nature and craftsmanship.

Upon the platform, a uniquely shaped, sharp stone pillar rises from the ground, its apex intricately carved with a strange sculpture that sparks the imagination.

The entire stone pillar is covered in intricate patterns that seem to contain some ancient, mysterious script, silently emitting an indescribable, extraordinary energy fluctuation.

Seated at the base of the stone pillar is a person clad in black, eyes closed, back turned to the pillar, seemingly in Meditation.

"Welcome to the Sea Within a Sea, Seahorse Sacred Pillar."
