Chapter 421: Tang San Accepts the Sea God's Ninth Trial

Brilliant magic patterns appeared within the Sea God Hall mostly in the form of waves, densely covering the ceiling, the walls, and the seven platforms beneath their feet.

That golden light was flowing slowly like mercury.

The sacred energy fluctuations made the air here seem to be pregnant with the aura of the Sea God.

The Scepter in Bo Saixi's hand was at this moment between her and Tang San.

The golden diamond-shaped gemstone on the Scepter became brighter and brighter, but that radiance was not at all blinding.

Under the illumination of that golden light,

The Sea God Trident Imprint on Tang San's forehead also gradually began to shine.

A warm sensation instantly spread throughout his entire body.

At this moment,

Tang San felt as if every single cell in his body had become active, dancing to their heart's content.

This Sea God Hall felt like a massive magic array,

And the central platform where Tang San stood was the eye of this array.

A golden hexagram began to light up beneath the feet of Tang San and Bo Saixi.

This enormous golden hexagram was a full five meters in diameter, and the six points of the hexagram,

Each pointed toward one of the other six platforms; six beams of golden light were released from those six points, shooting onto those six platforms.

Suddenly, six massive golden pillars of light rose abruptly from those six platforms.

Each pillar of light covered all of the platforms,

And at the same time, completely engulfed the bodies of the other six people, including Xiao Wu.

Ye Lin, meanwhile, watched all of this quietly; speaking of which, she was an outsider herself.

She wondered what kind of scene it would be when she truly had to face the Zulong Ten Trials.

The six people clearly felt their bodies being pulled by a strange energy.

Their Spiritual Power all entered a wondrous world.

In this world,

A special spiritual fluctuation connected with their souls.

In their consciousness, they felt as if they were pillars supporting a house.

Their bodies could no longer move a single bit, and even the rhythm of their breathing was controlled by that golden light.

Bo Saixi gazed at Tang San, a faint smile appearing at the corners of her mouth, "Tang San, are you truly prepared?"

Tang San did not retreat in the slightest, his gaze clear as he looked into Bo Saixi's eyes, "Yes, I am prepared."

Bo Saixi's voice suddenly became serious.

"The Sea God is the god who controls all living beings in the ocean."

"As the successor of the Sea God, you will spare no effort to protect your people."

"Tang San, can you do this?"

Tang San said without hesitation, "I can."

But in his heart, he thought, I'll see how it goes; if I can't handle it, I'll run away quickly.

Bo Saixi asked again, "The Sea God is the spokesperson of light and the ruler of the ocean."

"Can you keep kindness in your heart forever and use the Sea God's power for justice for all time?"

Tang San said affirmatively again, "I will certainly bring the Sea God's justice to the human world."

She added in her heart once more,

What I say is justice is justice, and what I say is evil is evil; anyway, those who do not obey my orders are evil.

Bo Saixi said, "The Sea God possesses the power to rule everything in the ocean; as the successor of the Sea God, the new generation of Sea God,"

"You must always remember not to disgrace the dignity of the Sea God, to spread the Sea God's divine light to every corner of the ocean,"

"And to use your Divine Power to assist your people."

"Do not let any foreign enemies invade."

Tang San promised again,

"Yes, I will certainly do so."

But in his heart, he likewise added again,

"I am the Sea God; whoever I say is a foreign enemy is the foreign enemy."

Bo Saixi's gaze seemed as if it wanted to pierce through Tang San's body.

Their gazes met.

Tang San did not attempt to dodge or block, allowing Bo Saixi's sharp gaze to look into the deepest part of his eyes,

As if looking through his soul.

He knew that Bo Saixi's questions were not a routine inquiry, but an inquiry made on behalf of the Sea God.

But in reality, the Sea God didn't care about that much at all; no matter what Tang San answered, she would let him pass.

He had long wanted to place this karmic burden onto Tang San.

What Bo Saixi saw,

Was Tang San's inner world.

What her gaze captured was also a flawless inner world.

It was pure black.

Why was it black?

It must be that the sea was too blue, so blue it turned black.

Nodding in satisfaction,

Bo Saixi pointed the Scepter in her hand forward,

causing the diamond-shaped golden gemstone on the Scepter to press against the Sea God Trident Imprint on Tang San's forehead.

"The glory of the Sea God shall be continued through you."

A surge of scorching energy was suddenly injected from that diamond gemstone into Tang San's mind.

Tang San felt as if his Spirit had exploded in an instant.

That figure which had appeared before appeared once again.

An aged and resonant voice rang out once more at this moment,

and it was filled with impassioned emotion, "Sea God Nine Trials, the Ninth Test of the Sea God's Inheritance, now begins."

With light shining, Bo Saixi raised the Scepter high.

A beam of golden light shot out like lightning, striking directly at the very center of the great hall's ceiling.

Instantly, intense golden light descended from the sky, and the golden hexagram beneath Tang San's feet lit up at once.

As the golden light shone, the dense radiance completely enveloped the bodies of Tang San and Bo Saixi.

Yet the golden light that had shot out from the Scepter dispersed at this moment,

transforming into a total of thirteen beams of golden light that descended from the sky,

forming thirteen clusters of golden flames on the periphery of the hexagram.

A massive golden phantom gradually emerged from behind Bo Saixi.

"The Gate of the Divine is about to open, the Sea God's divinity is about to be inherited,"

"O candidate of the Sea God! Please walk into the gate that the Sea God has opened for you,"

"Use your strength, your heart, your Spirit, and everything you possess to accept the Sea God's final trial."

Bo Saixi's voice suddenly became incomparably high-pitched, and her entire emotional state seemed to reach an unprecedented peak.

The Scepter in her hand shattered with a boom, and shattering along with it

were the nine Spirit Rings that had been spread around Bo Saixi's body, enveloping both her and Tang San.

The instant those nine Spirit Rings shattered, Tang San felt the surrounding space undergo a massive change.

Everything became unreal.

Her body was already unable to move,

and her entire being was locked by a vast, immense energy that she could not imagine.

Intense golden flames rose up around her body.

That seemed to be the energy that appeared after Bo Saixi's Spirit Rings shattered; the same flames were also burning on Bo Saixi's body.

The divinity and majesty on her face gradually vanished; looking at Tang San, all that remained was a kindly gaze.

The golden flames on Bo Saixi's body gradually changed from pale gold to bright gold, and then from bright gold to crimson gold,

and Bo Saixi's body was also gradually disappearing amidst this change in the flames' color.
