A day passed in the blink of an eye.

Near noon, the enormous dragon cocoon on the sea suddenly erupted with powerful energy. A giant dragon radiating immense pressure burst out of the cocoon and let out a heaven-shaking roar in the air.

Seeing this, Mo Changyu immediately stood up from atop Ali's head. Yin and Yang qi surged in his hands, enveloping everyone around him.

With Mo Changyu's movement, the pressure weighing on everyone disappeared as well.

Suddenly, the sky filled with dark clouds. The Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor's eight-hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation was constantly brewing within them.

Although the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor's cultivation had broken through eight hundred thousand years after being tempered by the Dragon Essence, reaching eight hundred and thirty thousand years directly, and its bloodline had benefited tremendously, greatly increasing its strength,

it still had to lower its proud dragon head before the vast heavenly might of the lightning tribulation—the supreme, blazing heavenly lightning carrying endless destruction and judgment. That was fear rooted in its bloodline. No soul beast was unafraid of the lightning tribulation.

The Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor glanced at Mo Changyu in the distance and said respectfully, "I'll have to trouble you later, Mr. Li. I hope you can help me survive this lightning tribulation."

Seeing this, Mo Changyu said unhurriedly, "Focus on crossing the tribulation. I already set up Formation Arrays around you beforehand. Once I activate them, they'll help you."

"If you truly can't hold on at the end, I'll intervene personally."

With that, Mo Changyu waved his hand.

Countless profound runes appeared around the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor's body. Before long, they formed one marvelous Formation Array after another.

The Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor trusted Mo Changyu completely. It circulated all its Soul Power and prepared to face its eight-hundred-thousand-year lightning tribulation.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Suddenly, a thunderous roar rang out from the sky. A bolt of lightning carrying majestic heavenly might shot toward the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor.

The lightning struck the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor, destroying everything in its path. Immense pain filled its body, and it could not help but let out a tortured roar.

"Master, help Mother! Hurry and help Mother!"

"Mother's in so much pain! She's about to hold on no longer!"

"Wuuuuu!"

Seeing this, Ali was heartbroken. She immediately cried out to Mo Changyu for help.

Mo Changyu glanced at her and said softly, "Why are you crying? Come take a look at what your mother looks like now."

Hearing this, Ali looked up. She saw that the Formation Arrays around the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor were converting part of the lightning's energy and feeding it back into the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor. Under the Formation Arrays' influence, the remaining lightning only served to temper its body. The process made the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor alternate between pain and comfort, with suffering accompanied by relief.

"Thank you, Master! Hehe."

Seeing this, Ali became extremely excited. She knew that Mr. Li's Formation Arrays were working and helping her mother. After thanking Mo Changyu, she cheered toward the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor:

"Come on, Mother!"

"Come on, Mother!"

As time passed, the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor was about to face the final bolt of lightning. This final bolt had taken the longest to form. The lightning tribulation suddenly mutated, and fierce winds rose all around. Within the dark clouds, a faint golden hue appeared.

Even Li Changhen suddenly stood up and looked at the lightning with a slight frown.

Everyone around him saw this and witnessed Li Changhen lose his composure for the first time.

Ali anxiously asked, "What's wrong, Master? Is Mother in danger while crossing the tribulation?"

Seeing how flustered Ali was, Li Changhen explained, "It's nothing. I just didn't expect this either."

"The Dragon Essence not only helped your mother's cultivation break through eight hundred thousand years and tempered her body, it also strengthened her bloodline, ultimately allowing it to evolve."

"But precisely because your mother's bloodline evolved, the difficulty of her Heavenly Tribulation also increased."

"Don't worry. You have me."

With that, powerful sword qi suddenly surged around Li Changhen, and a wooden sword appeared in his hand.

Seeing this scene, everyone around him suddenly had the same thought—Twin Martial Souls! Mr. Li actually had Twin Martial Souls!

But what happened next was even more astonishing. An incredible, impossible Soul Ring configuration appeared around Li Changhen: red, red, red, red, red, red, gold, gold, gold.

Six red and three gold. When Shui Rou saw this, she felt as if her head had exploded. She was especially dumbfounded by the final three "Golden Soul Rings." Others might not know what Golden Soul Rings represented, but how could she not? She was a soul beast that had lived from the era of the Sea God until now.

A Golden Soul Ring had to be at least a million years old—a million years! To obtain a million-year Soul Ring, one had to hunt a million-year soul beast. Even if one truly killed a million-year soul beast, absorbing it still depended on whether one's body was strong enough. Otherwise, one's body would burst apart!

Besides, where were there any million-year soul beasts left now? Thus, the Golden Soul Rings on Li Changhen could only have come from faith. Yet she had never even heard of Li Changhen before. Soul Rings condensed from faith required an enormous amount of it.

Moreover, she clearly remembered that when the Sea God became a god back then, a Golden Soul Ring had only appeared when he condensed his tenth Soul Ring. His other Soul Rings had changed because of the power of faith, but even with that power supporting him, he had only condensed one million-year Soul Ring.

Li Changhen actually had three! Shui Rou's entire worldview was overturned, and she felt incredibly fortunate about the decision she had made back then. (Ahem, let me explain this: before this, no one knew about Heaven-Granted Soul Rings at all. Moreover, the Heaven-Granted Soul Rings had been given by the system.)

Just as everyone was marveling at Li Changsheng's Soul Ring configuration,

"Boom!" A thunderous roar rang out from the sky.

The final bolt of the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor's eight-hundred-thousand-year lightning tribulation descended. The Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor immediately sensed its terrifying power and despaired, believing that even Li Changsheng could no longer save it.

"Ninth Soul Skill: Opening the Heavens!"

Seeing this, Li Changsheng slowly raised the Luzu's Revered Sword in his hand and shouted in a low voice. All the Soul Power around Li Changsheng surged into the Luzu's Revered Sword, which he swung heavily at the lightning tribulation in the sky.

In an instant, a massive sword qi carrying the intent to open the heavens slashed toward the lightning.

The moment the lightning and sword qi met, the lightning was cleaved apart. The Heaven-Shattering Sword Qi did not dissipate because of this, but continued toward the dark clouds in the sky. In the blink of an eye, it split the dark clouds in two.

Everyone, including the Azure Sea Demon Dragon Emperor, stared blankly at the sky Li Changsheng had cleaved open, stunned and unable to recover for a long time.

"Hey, what's wrong with all of you? There's no need to be this surprised!" Li Changsheng was very pleased by their shocked expressions, but his face remained utterly unconcerned, as if this were perfectly normal.

Hearing Li Changsheng say something so outrageously boastful, everyone slowly recovered and fell silent.
