• Sea Delusion Douluo explained the three-stage Guardian Trial and sent Lin Che into the first golden gate.
• Lin Che achieved 98% Martial Soul Compatibility, 95% Divine Capacity, and 100% divine position suitability, earning the Sea God Nine Trials.
• Tang San earned the Sea God Seven Trials and a Guardian Divine Position, then accepted Lin Che’s reassurance about their roles working together.
• Jiang Zhu earned the Goddess of Life Trial, which was bound to Lin Che’s trials and would progress alongside them.
• Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Long Ya, and Long Xi received their respective guardian, subordinate, or auxiliary trials.
• Sea Delusion Douluo warned that Spirit Hall’s Titled Legion was gathering outside the island, and Lin Che pledged that the team would protect the Sacred Trial Ground together.

Sea God's Light began the first trial, and Lin Che crossed its bridge under triple Light Pressure with Jiang Zhu's Immortal Herb Bond providing remote support. Lin Che passed, and Tang San began his own crossing with a weaker resonance from Jiang Zhu's holy staff as the trial continued.

• Sea Delusion Douluo announced that the first trial, Crossing Sea God's Light, had begun and ordered Lin Che to cross first under triple Light Pressure.
• Jiang Zhu's holy staff resonated with Lin Che's Shadow Purple Ganoderma, forming an Immortal Herb Bond that let her send him healing energy through the bridge's pressure.
• Lin Che crossed the bridge with Jiang Zhu's support, used the Soul Suppressing Cauldron to withstand the pressure, and reached the Assessment Platform to pass the first trial.
• Jiang Zhu received a green auxiliary medal after supporting Lin Che, completing the first trial's auxiliary mission for her Goddess of Life Trial.
• Tang San stepped onto the bridge and found that his Blue Silver Emperor could draw a faint resilience-enhancing response from Jiang Zhu's holy staff.

Lin Che used the Soul Suppressing Cauldron and Jiang Zhu’s support to absorb and destroy the Divine Light Spirit Binding Array, passing his Sea God Nine Trials First Trial and advancing to the late stage of Soul Douluo. Tang San also passed his more difficult bridge trial, and after the group rested, the Second Trial against the Demon Whale King began.

• Sea Dragon Douluo explained that the Divine Light Spirit Binding Array would bind trial-takers and that Lin Che would face twice the usual density of Spirit Binding Light Silk.
• Lin Che absorbed the array’s light particles and binding strands with the Soul Suppressing Cauldron while Jiang Zhu stabilized his energy, weakening the array.
• Tang San struggled under the bridge’s Light Pressure, but Jiang Zhu linked her holy staff’s energy to his Blue Silver Emperor, helping him repel the Spirit Binding Light Silk and reach the platform.
• Lin Che destroyed the array core, earned his Sea God Nine Trials First Trial badge, and rose from the middle stage to the late stage of Soul Douluo; Tang San also completed his Sea God Seven Trials First Trial.
• Sea Dragon Douluo announced the Second Trial, in which Lin Che would suppress the Demon Whale King alone while the others assisted, and the group rested for three shichen.
• As the sun set, Sea God’s Light formed a Deep Sea Gate and the Second Trial, “Subdue the Demon Whale King,” began.

Tang San struggled across the Sea God Light Bridge and narrowly passed the first Sea God trial through his resilience, the Sea God Seven Trials Token, and the Titan Strength Crystal. He collapsed after reaching the Assessment Platform, and the team prepared to face the Demon Whale King trial in two days.

• Tang San began the Light Pressure assessment without outside support, using his Blue Silver Emperor and cultivation method to endure the early steps.
• Tang San’s Blue Silver Emperor origin resonated with the Sea God divinity, allowing him to withstand the pressure by tempering its silver patterns, though his Soul Power dwindled.
• Tang San used a Toughness Sausage and Blue Silver Emperor ropes to push forward, then activated the Sea God Seven Trials Token when he nearly lost consciousness.
• The Titan Strength Crystal lent Tang San enough power to touch the Assessment Platform, earning him passage before he collapsed and lost consciousness.
• Jiang Zhu and Oscar treated Tang San while Lin Che assisted with Earth Vein healing, and Sea Delusion Douluo announced that the Demon Whale King trial would begin in two days.

Lin Che and the Cauldron Sword Team faced the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King when it attacked Sea God Island ahead of the second trial. After a God-Tier Can produced a Soul Core Fragment that suppressed the whale, Lin Che, Tang San, and Jiang Zhu approached it to purify its Dark Energy and begin taming it.

• Jiang Zhu, Tang San, and Sea Wang Douluo sensed the Demon Whale King's rising Dark Energy, and the whale emerged from a Black Vortex demanding the Sea God Inheritance.
• Lin Che used the Soul Suppressing Cauldron to shield Sea God Island and trap the whale, while Jiang Zhu, Ma Hongjun, and the others helped repel its attacks.
• Sea Wang Douluo explained that the team had to tame the whale by purifying its Dark Energy, and Lin Che brought out a God-Tier Can that might contain a countermeasure.
• Lin Che and his allies opened the can as Dai Mubai and the others defended the cage, then Lin Che recognized Spirit Hall's Nether Poison Sac energy boosting the whale.
• The can released an Abyssal Demon Whale King Soul Core Fragment that suppressed the whale's Soul Core, and Lin Che, Tang San, and Jiang Zhu rushed toward it to purify its Dark Energy.

Lin Che and his companions used the Demon Whale King's Soul Core Fragment and the Sea God's Power to purge its Dark Energy, while repelling Spirit Hall assassins. The Demon Whale King became Lin Che's mount, the Second Trial was passed, and the team prepared for the Sea God's Temple trial in three days.

• Lin Che used the Soul Core Fragment while Tang San and Jiang Zhu helped expose and suppress the Demon Whale King's corrupted Soul Core.
• Spirit Hall assassins emerged from the Black Vortex and attacked, but Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Long Ya, Long Xi, Sea Dragon Douluo, and Sea Spear Douluo fought them off.
• Lin Che fused the fragment's energy with Sea Dragon Douluo's Sea God's Power, restoring the Demon Whale King's Origin Energy and earning its agreement to become his mount.
• Lin Che rode the Demon Whale King to complete the final step of the Second Trial, and his medal confirmed that the trial had been passed; Jiang Zhu's auxiliary mission was also completed.
• Sea Dragon Douluo announced that the Third Trial, Sea God's Temple Inheritance, would begin in three days, and Lin Che planned to prepare the team's defenses against Spirit Hall.

Lin Che and Tang San overcame their awkward teamwork to suppress and initially control the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. As the whale’s Dark Energy disappeared, a far stronger familiar presence stirred in the deep sea, leaving the second trial unresolved.

• Lin Che directed Tang San to attack the Demon Whale King's sealed weak point, but Tang San's depleted Soul Power caused their first attempt to fail, and Lin Che was injured protecting him.
• Oscar supplied Soul Power and Defense Sausages, and Lin Che and Tang San agreed that Tang San would restrain the whale while Lin Che led the offense.
• Lin Che used the Soul Core Fragment to draw the Demon Whale King in as Tang San bound its tailfin and Jiang Zhu purified its Dark Energy, exposing the sealed weak point.
• Lin Che pressed the fragment against the whale's Soul Core, and he and Tang San transmitted Sea God's Power together to suppress the Dark Energy and gain the whale's initial acknowledgment.
• Lin Che and Tang San thanked each other for their coordination, but stronger familiar Dark Energy rippled through the sea and signaled that the threat remained.

Lin Che defeated the Demon Whale King and purified its origin Soul Core, passing the second Sea God trial and gaining the whale as an ally. As the team celebrated, a Spirit Hall warship appeared on the horizon, setting up their next confrontation.

• The Demon Whale King broke through the weakened seal, overwhelmed the team's attacks, and targeted Lin Che for holding its Soul Core fragment.
• Lin Che used the Soul Suppressing Cauldron, Shadow Purple Ganoderma vitality, and Soul Core fragment to weaken the Demon Whale King, while Tang San located its Soul Core and Jiang Zhu stabilized the cauldron.
• Lin Che combined his Dual Martial Souls in the Cauldron-Hammer Soulbreaker attack, struck the Demon Whale King's Soul Core, and began purifying it with help from Jiang Zhu.
• After half an hour, Lin Che completed the purification, and the Demon Whale King recovered its clarity and submitted to him.
• Sea Delusion Douluo declared the second trial passed, and the team learned the Demon Whale King could aid them in future trials.
• Tang San spotted a Spirit Hall warship approaching, and Lin Che and the Demon Whale King prepared to face its occupants.

Lin Che received first-level authority over Sea God's Power, mastered Tidal Guardian, and used it to repel Stingray Douluo's attack. As Spirit Hall reinforcements led by three Titled Douluo approached, Lin Che and his allies prepared to defend Sea God Island.

• Sea Delusion Douluo and Sea Lance Douluo explained that Lin Che could unlock first-level divine authority early after purifying the Demon Whale King.
• Lin Che fused with Sea God's Power using the Shadow Purple Ganoderma and Soul Suppressing Cauldron, while Jiang Zhu helped ease the strain.
• Lin Che used Tidal Guardian to shield the Demon Whale King and formed a mental link that let him sense approaching Spirit Hall reinforcements.
• Stingray Douluo fired poison needles at Sea God Island, and Lin Che's golden tide purified them and damaged the warship.
• Jiang Zhu helped Lin Che stabilize his remaining Sea God's Power, and he assigned roles to Tang San and the others as the reinforcements drew near.

Lin Che triggered the Sea God Palace and gained Trident Divine Light, turning back Dark Douluo and Spirit Hall’s assault on Sea God Island. Inside the palace, he received the Third Trial mission to wield the Sea God’s Trident and repel Spirit Hall’s third siege.

• Dark Douluo, Rock Pig Douluo, and Snake Lance Douluo attacked Sea God Island, and Lin Che’s group struggled to hold the barrier against their dark and poisonous powers.
• Jiang Zhu helped Lin Che resist Dark Douluo’s divinity-devouring energy, but Dark Douluo wounded him and Snake Lance Douluo began burning the Demon Whale King.
• Lin Che’s Sea God Nine Trials Medal, trident mark, and soul core fragment resonated, opening the Sea God Palace and releasing Trident Divine Light.
• Lin Che reached level 85 and used the divine light to purify Dark Douluo’s attacks, damage the enemy forces, and capture Dark Douluo, who surrendered his dark soul core.
• Lin Che healed the Demon Whale King, entered the Sea God Palace, and received the Sea God’s inheritance memories and the Third Trial mission to repel Spirit Hall’s third siege.

Lin Che defended the Sea God Inheritance from Spirit Hall spies and used the Universe Cauldron to draw and transform the Divine Pool’s power. After defeating Snake Lance Douluo, he strengthened his connection to the Sea God and prepared for Spirit Hall’s next siege.

• Lin Che absorbed the Sea God’s inheritance knowledge from the Divine Pool before three Spirit Hall spies attacked the palace and targeted the soul seals.
• Lin Che used the Universe Cauldron and a Demon Whale King soul core fragment to draw Sea God Divine Power, with Jiang Zhu’s sacred staff stabilizing it.
• Lin Che revealed that the masked leader was Snake Lance Douluo and used the cauldron to neutralize his Ninth Soul Skill and turn his Dark Energy against him.
• Tang San and the others entered the hall, captured the remaining spies, and helped Lin Che confirm Snake Lance Douluo could not be saved.
• Lin Che absorbed the restored soul seals and gained a deeper connection to the Sea God’s trident as he and his allies prepared for Spirit Hall’s third siege.

Lin Che absorbed thirty percent of the Sea God Trident Remnant Soul’s divine power and forged a Pseudo-Divine Sea God’s Trident. As Spirit Hall’s Worship Hall fleet approached Sea God Island, Lin Che and his allies prepared to confront the siege.

• Sea Dragon Douluo explained that Lin Che could draw upon the remnant soul’s divine power, and Tang San and the others prepared to support the absorption.
• Lin Che used the Universe Cauldron to absorb the first two portions of divine power, while Tang San identified backlash and Jiang Zhu’s Lovesick Heartbreak Red soothed the remnant soul’s resistance.
• The remnant soul recognized Lin Che, and the third portion of divine power helped the Universe Cauldron form a Pseudo-Divine Sea God’s Trident.
• Lin Che tested the trident’s purifying power as Dai Mubai warned that Spirit Hall’s warships had arrived with a Dark Energy Barrier.
• Sea Dragon Douluo activated Sea God Island’s Guardian Array, and Lin Che agreed to seek a weak point in the barrier as the Worship Hall fleet advanced.

Lin Che and his allies broke Spirit Hall’s assault on Sea God Island by using the two tridents’ resonance to defeat Netherworld Douluo and drive the warships away. The captured attackers died before revealing more, while Lin Che and Sea Delusion Douluo suspected Spirit Hall had drawn power from the Netherworld Abyss.

• As the Guardian Array weakened under attack, Lin Che, Tang San, and Jiang Zhu went outside to locate and break the barrier’s soul power hubs.
• Lin Che pierced Rock Pig Douluo’s hub, and Jiang Zhu amplified the trident’s purification power to hold open the gap.
• Black Tiger Douluo attacked with Dark Douluo’s Soul Core, but Lin Che used the trident to trigger its backlash and destroy it.
• Netherworld Douluo unleashed Netherworld God Extinguishing Fire, but Lin Che joined the Pseudo-Divine Trident with the Sea God’s true trident and shattered his scepter.
• Netherworld Douluo ordered Spirit Hall’s forces to retreat, leaving Black Tiger Douluo and Rock Pig Douluo captured; both committed suicide before Tang San could question them.
• Lin Che and Sea Delusion Douluo suspected Spirit Hall had tapped the Netherworld Abyss, and Lin Che vowed to defend Sea God Island when the next siege came.

Tang San attempted the Sea God inheritance and received only a Basic Inheritance Seal, which gave him limited purification power. As Netherworld Douluo unleashed stronger Dark Spirit Beasts, Lin Che and the others prepared Sea God Island for another assault.

• Tang San asked Sea Delusion Douluo to open the Sea God Palace inheritance, and Lin Che supported his attempt.
• Tang San’s Blue Silver Domain let him pass the trial, but the Sea God granted him only a Basic Inheritance Seal.
• Lin Che and Sea Delusion Douluo explained the seal’s benefits, and Tang San used its Purifying Power to dispel some Netherworld aura.
• Long Ya reported a black energy pillar over the sea, and Tang San identified it as Netherworld Douluo releasing stronger Dark Spirit Beasts.
• Lin Che ordered the group to reinforce the Guardian Array and prepare supplies while Tang San offered to help locate the Netherworld Abyss’s energy nexus.
• Netherworld Douluo vowed revenge as Dark Spirit Beasts awakened beneath the energy pillar.

Tang San searched for the Sea God's Trident fragments but found none, then discovered that conflicting origins between his Blue Silver Grass and Sea God Divine Power blocked his inheritance. With Lin Che and the others guarding him, he began testing whether purified Dark Energy could unite the two as Netherworld Douluo prepared an attack within three days.

• Tang San and Lin Che searched the Divine Pool and the Inheritance Platform's hidden compartment but found no trident fragments, while the Demon Whale King reported that dark energy made the deep-sea trench too dangerous to explore.
• Lin Che's trident helped Tang San strengthen his Basic Inheritance Seal, but an internal force repelled the divine power and left Tang San injured.
• Jiang Zhu and Sea Delusion Douluo identified a clash between Sea God Divine Power and Blue Silver Grass's natural origin, and Lin Che found a tablet image showing the two could coexist.
• Sea Delusion Douluo proposed using purified Netherworld Abyss Dark Energy as a catalyst, warning that Netherworld Douluo would attack within three days.
• Tang San began drawing in a thin stream of Dark Energy while Lin Che, Jiang Zhu, and his companions stood ready to protect and stabilize him.
• Netherworld Douluo used a Black Altar to transform bound spirit beasts into Dark Energy and advanced toward Sea God Island with his forces.

Tang San’s fusion with the purified Dark Energy awakened a Sea God inheritance message and revealed the first trial, the Eye of the Tide. As the Netherworld Douluo prepared to reopen an ancient passage and claim the Sea God’s Trident fragment, Tang San and Lin Che planned to confront him at the full moon in two days.

• Tang San struggled to contain Netherworld origin power until the jade tablet’s runes and Lin Che’s trident helped drive the corruption from his Blue Silver Grass.
• The Sea God’s remnant consciousness revealed three tribulations, beginning with the Eye of the Tide, where a Sea God’s Trident fragment awaited purification.
• Tang San sensed the Eye of the Tide near the deep-sea trench and learned that the Netherworld Douluo was building an Energy Passage there to channel Dark Energy toward Sea God Island.
• Tang San and Lin Che planned a two-pronged defense for the full moon, with one group reinforcing the Guardian Array and the other entering the trench to retrieve the fragment and destroy the altar.
• The Netherworld Douluo’s phantom attacked Sea God Island, and Lin Che blocked its strike before the phantom vanished.
• Tang San studied Sea Wang Douluo’s tome while the Netherworld Douluo vowed to seize the fragment and Sea God Inheritance.

Lin Che taught Tang San and the others to harmonize Sea God power, Earth Vein Power, and Blue Silver Grass, then led them in a drill to weaken the Netherworld altar. The Netherworld Douluo activated the altar anyway, while the group gained a clearer sense of the Eye of the Tide fragments and discovered a clue to the Temple of Storms; they prepared for the coming full-moon battle.

• Lin Che used black jade and the Universe Cauldron to help Tang San smooth his cultivation and explained how different energies could coexist.
• Lin Che and Tang San calmed the Guardian Array by guiding its runes with Blue Silver Grass and Earth Vein Power, while Sea Delusion Douluo reported the altar’s activity and Spirit Beast skeletons.
• Lin Che briefed the group on the Symbiotic Combat Method and led them to the deep-sea trench, where they subdued Dark Spirit Beasts and disabled a rune-trap energy node.
• The Netherworld Douluo activated the altar and taunted Lin Che and Tang San, but Tang San collected a trace of pure Tidal Force that helped him sense the fragments more precisely.
• The jade token revealed an image of the Temple of Storms and a matching rune, as Lin Che and Tang San resolved to face the Netherworld Douluo at the Eye of the Tide before pursuing the next trial.

Spirit Hall and its allied sea soul master sects launched a coordinated assault on Sea God Island, but Lin Che and Tang San destroyed the western fleet’s barrier core. With the full moon approaching, the defenders prepared to protect the island while retrieving fragments from the Eye of the Tide and stopping Netherworld Douluo’s ritual.

• The Demon Whale King warned Lin Che that a vast fleet had gathered around the Deep-Sea Trench, and the defenders spotted Spirit Hall’s eastern warships and their allied sects.
• The eastern fleet attacked the Guardian Array with dark vines, which Lin Che, Tang San, and Jiang Zhu countered through their combined powers.
• Spirit Hall’s western fleet raised a Darkness Barrier, and Lin Che and Tang San infiltrated the fleet and shattered its Black Crystal pillar, forcing the barrier to collapse.
• Lin Che and Tang San returned safely as the enemy fleets paused their assault, and Lin Che and Sea Delusion Douluo warned that Spirit Hall planned to strike during the full moon.
• Lin Che assigned the Demon Whale King and several companions to defend Sea God Island while he, Tang San, and Bai Chenxiang prepared to retrieve the fragments and stop Netherworld Douluo’s ritual at the Eye of the Tide.
• As the enemy fleets remained offshore, Lin Che and Tang San resolved to face the coming decisive battle on the night of the full moon.

Tang San fused a Titan Strength Crystal with Blue Silver Grass, purifying the Dark Energy hidden inside it and triggering the Fourth Stage Might Trial. As Netherworld Douluo prepared a Dark Puppet for the coming battle, Tang San and his companions made plans to enter the Eye of the Tide on the night of the full moon.

• Lin Che, Sea Delusion Douluo, and Jiang Zhu helped Tang San fuse the Titan Strength Crystal with Blue Silver Grass using Earth Vein Power and immortal herb power.
• Dark Energy emerged from the crystal, but Tang San contained it with Blue Silver Grass while Lin Che purified it in the Universe Cauldron.
• The crystal strengthened Tang San’s Blue Silver Grass and expanded his Inheritance Seal, triggering the Fourth Stage Might Trial against a Deep Sea Titan Ape in the Titan Abyss.
• Bai Chenxiang reported that Netherworld Douluo’s warships were searching for crystal cores, so Lin Che planned for Tang San and Jiang Zhu to enter the Titan Abyss while the others defended Sea God Island.
• Netherworld Douluo revived a Deep Sea Titan Ape as a Dark Puppet and prepared it to attack Tang San when the Eye of the Tide opened on the night of the full moon.

Lin Che, Tang San, and their companions confronted Netherworld Douluo as he corrupted the Eye of the Tide and summoned the Dark Origin. With the Dark Origin threatening Sea God Island, Lin Che, Tang San, and Jiang Zhu dove into the Titan Abyss to find the trident fragment and the Origin Core, while Bai Chenxiang and the Guardian Array held off its attacks.

• Lin Che split the group’s duties, sending Tang San and Jiang Zhu into the Titan Abyss while he and Bai Chenxiang headed for the Eye of the Tide entrance.
• Lin Che and Bai Chenxiang found Netherworld Douluo corrupting the Eye of the Tide with a Dark Conversion Array, and Lin Che fought off his skeletal puppets and Dark Titan Puppet.
• Tang San and Jiang Zhu retreated from the corrupted Deep Sea Titan Ape, and Tang San warned that Netherworld Douluo was summoning the Dark Origin.
• Lin Che wounded Netherworld Douluo while Tang San and Jiang Zhu began damaging the black stone pillars, but the Dark Origin emerged and drained the Guardian Array’s Earth Vein Energy.
• Sea Delusion Douluo revealed that the Dark Origin’s core lay at the bottom of the Titan Abyss, where the trident fragment was also hidden.
• Lin Che, Tang San, and Jiang Zhu dove into the Titan Abyss as Netherworld Douluo pursued them, while Bai Chenxiang and the Guardian Array defended against the Dark Origin.
