Chapter 597: Feihuang Arrives, Poseidon's Shock

Inside the Sea God Hall, Lv Lingqi and Ye Lingling both appeared somewhat silent.

Poseidon did not disturb them either; this choice was one only they could make themselves. She guessed that in the end, Lingqi would likely choose to break through to the nine-ring level first before going to hunt the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

Although doing so would mean she could not absorb its Spirit Ring and obtain the terrifying Vast Sea Power within its body—which was a pity—and the affinity gained from the trial would not be very high, affecting her foundation for becoming a god, it was still better than failing the trial.

If one were to challenge the Deep Sea Demon Whale King with only eight-ring cultivation, that would absolutely be seeking death.

At that time, Lv Lingqi would only have the Sea God's power within her body stolen back by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, helping it transform into a dragon and become an unprecedented Sea God Dragon.

"If only Junior Feihuang or Wenruo were here!" Ye Lingling said subconsciously.

In her heart, these two were omnipotent; Feihuang was powerful, and Xun Yu was unfailingly resourceful. With the two of them joining forces, all the world's problems could be easily solved.

"Haha, so Sister Lingling trusts me and Wenruo that much. If I had known, I should have brought Wenruo along too; he misses you very much as well."

Suddenly, a voice echoed throughout the Sea God Hall.

Poseidon was greatly shocked, "Who?"

For the first time in her life, she wore such a guarded expression. Where was this? It was the Sea God Hall.

Fighting here, her combat power far surpassed that of a Limit Douluo; the Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu of the past were no match for her at all.

Yet now, someone had actually entered the Sea God Hall without her discovering them.

The Haishang Qishengzhu Shouhu Douluo were also guarding outside the hall, and until now, there hadn't even been a warning. Either they had all been killed by the intruder, or the intruder had entered the Sea God Hall without the seven of them noticing at all.

Regardless of which it was, it proved that the intruder's strength was unprecedentedly strong!

"This voice... it's my husband!!!" Lingqi looked up in pleasant surprise. How could she not recognize her own husband's voice? Having been separated for several years, she had long since fallen ill with longing.

The reason she worked so hard to pass the trials was primarily because she wanted to hurry back and help her husband.

Feihuang appeared silently behind Lingqi, a large hand covering her silvery-white hair, "Lingqi, you've done well. You are worthy of being my wife."

"Husband!" Lingqi excitedly pounced into Feihuang's embrace. At this moment, she was not some mighty female general, but merely a wife missing her husband.

She was even more like a little kitten, constantly rubbing her head against Feihuang's chest.

"So this person is Lv Lingqi's husband. Judging by his age, he should be about the same as Lingqi, yet his cultivation is actually above mine. What kind of heaven-sent talent is this? Even the Tang Chen of those years was far inferior," Poseidon thought to herself.

She lowered her guard slightly; since this person was Lv Lingqi's husband, he was not an enemy of Sea God Island.

After all, as the Sea God successor, this entire Sea God Island would belong to the couple in the future. What reason would they have to move against their own territory?

Feihuang walked up to Poseidon and bowed in salute, "Senior Poseidon, hello. It is our first meeting; my name is Nan Feihuang, titled Wushuang Douluo. I am Lingqi's husband and the Crown Prince of the Gulei Kingdom. Over these years, you have taken great care of my wife, and Feihuang is deeply grateful. I offer you my thanks here."

He knew that Poseidon had once harbored murderous intent toward Lv Lingqi, but she had ultimately not acted on it. It was also a fact that over these years, before the sixth trial, she had taken good care of Lv Lingqi. Moreover, Feihuang could feel that as Lingqi passed the seventh trial, she had completely let go of the killing intent in her heart. This bow was something the other party deserved.

"Wushuang Crown Prince is too polite. This is the duty I should fulfill as the Sea God High Priest; you need not thank me so." Facing Feihuang, Poseidon did not have that high-and-mighty feeling she had toward others; after all, the strength of the person before her was even greater than her own.

"Husband, look, this is the Sea God Trident. Although its appearance is somewhat different from my father's Fangtian Halberd, I find it quite handy to use. Using this is even more convenient than using the cross halberd to execute the Ghost God Halberd Technique," Lv Lingqi said, holding the trident with a look begging for praise.

Feihuang took the trident. Seeing this, Poseidon was just about to step forward to offer a warning, but she saw Feihuang holding the trident and waving it casually, as if it were an extension of his own arm.

"This person... what terrifying physical strength!" She was certain that Feihuang had not used soul power, and he was not the master of the trident; that trident weighed one hundred and eight thousand catties in his hands.

To think that a Spirit Master's pure physical strength could reach such a level.

Ye Lingling was indifferent, expressing that she was used to it; monsters could never be judged by common sense.

"Junior, you came here specifically to help Lingqi with her trials, right? You must have heard what we were just saying to Senior Poseidon. Do you have any way to help Lingqi perfectly pass her eighth trial?"

Compared to Poseidon, who was still in shock, and Lv Lingqi, who was full of joy with eyes only for Feihuang, she was the first to think of business.

"Of course I do!" Feihuang smiled slightly, "Helping Lingqi perfectly pass the eighth trial is actually very simple. While she absorbs the ninth ring, why not just add a martial soul for her?"

Poseidon and Ye Lingling were both stunned. Was this a Spirit Master's technical term? No, was this even human language? Adding a martial soul—was that something you could just add whenever you wanted?

"How does Husband intend for me to do it?" Lv Lingqi was full of trust in Feihuang; she did not have a single doubt.

Feihuang opened his Spirit Tool and released the large meat worm inside.

As soon as the Tianmeng Iceworm appeared, its powerful million-year spiritual power shocked Poseidon once again.

"This... what is this? A million-year Spirit Beast? Do true million-year Spirit Beasts really exist?"

With her cultivation, she could see the Tianmeng Iceworm's level at a glance. She had originally thought the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was the strongest Ferocious Beast in the world; she had not expected a true million-year Spirit Beast to appear before her at this moment.

Yes, the Tianmeng Iceworm had broken through to a million years. Its cultivation was all obtained by consuming Ice Marrow. Feihuang had followed the same pattern, using the Cold Extreme Yin Spring within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and countless ice-attribute medicinal herbs to help it cross the final limit; it was not difficult.

After succeeding, Feihuang used a sealing technique to seal a portion of its power to delay the arrival of the Million-Year God Tribulation.

Fortunately, the Tianmeng Iceworm's strength was too weak; if it had been Red Hare, Feihuang would not have been able to seal it.

"So this is the legendary Sea God Hall. This is the first time Brother has been here." The Tianmeng Iceworm scanned the crowd with its eyes and finally stopped in front of Lv Lingqi, "Yo, you're my big boss's wife, right? Not bad, quite pretty, only a little worse than my Bingbing. Giving my Spirit Ring to you isn't exactly insulting me!"

"Lingqi, this is the Tianmeng Iceworm, a true million-year Spirit Beast. It can serve as your ninth ring. It is very special; although it cannot provide you with a soul bone, it can help you create a new ice-attribute martial soul. Once you absorb its power and go hunt an ice-attribute Spirit Beast, this ice martial soul will be completely formed," Feihuang explained.
