Pope Meets Bo Saixi Late at Night, Sea God Issues Edict on the Spot
Upon hearing Seahorse Douluo's account, Bo Saixi was equally astonished.
She closed her eyes, her emotions churning within her.
She originally thought that Lin Qingmo triggering the Sea God Nine Trials was already the limit.
The shock this group brought was far more than that.
"Grand Pontiff, what should we do now?" Seahorse Douluo asked cautiously.
Bo Saixi opened her eyes, her gaze regaining the composure befitting a Peerless Douluo.
"I will personally arrange the rest."
That evening.
Sea God Island arranged a row of bamboo houses along the sea for everyone.
Moonlight streamed through the windowpanes, and the Sea Breeze, carrying a salty, damp scent, swept through the room.
It should have been a peaceful night.
pity.
"I want to share a room with A-Qing!"
Xiao Wu stood with her hands on her hips, blocking Lin Qingmo's doorway, her tone leaving no room for argument.
Her reasoning was sound, "I'm unfamiliar with this place; who knows if some strange person might sneak over in the middle of the night?"
When saying the words "strange person".
Her gaze swept with extreme precision to the figure in black robes and a mask at the end of the line.
Bibi Dong: "..."
Liu Erlong crossed her arms over her chest.
He strode directly to the door of the bamboo house next door and slammed his hand on the doorframe.
"It's my duty to stay here and protect the students."
As she said this, she glanced at Xiao Wu with her phoenix eyes without any attempt to hide her feelings.
That look, translated, probably means: You're in charge of guarding the front gate, I'll guard the back gate, and nobody's going to Thunder Pool.
The atmosphere of Asura battle was palpable.
Lin Qingmo leaned against the door frame, a smile on his face, while inwardly he was ranting and raving.
Are you protecting me, or are you guarding my chastity?
However, this fierce competition for apartments did not last long.
Because Bibi Dong, the instigator, had no intention of participating in the war at all.
late at night.
The lights in the bamboo houses gradually went out, leaving only the sound of waves crashing on the shore in the Sea Breeze.
A black figure silently slipped out of the bamboo hut assigned to her and sped towards the Sea God Hall.
Bibi Dong has other important matters to attend to tonight.
In Lin Qingmo's room.
Xiao Wu, wrapped in a thin blanket, curled up on the inside of the bed, her breathing gradually becoming long and even.
Lin Qingmo sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, silently sorting through the newly added information in his mind.
After communicating with Xiao Wu, I learned more about the situation.
He discovered that the First Trial of the Nine Trials was identical to the version in the original work featuring Tang San.
With Xiao Wu's talent and background, although it won't be easy, it certainly won't be impossible for her.
This put his mind at ease.
However, his own evaluation was somewhat unique.
The requirements of the Nine Trials of Life seem to be only one: to allow the Life Ancient Tree to fully grow and eventually mature.
It sounds simple, but it's incredibly difficult to do.
He was already aware that his Blue Silver Life Tree Martial Soul contained the Seed of Life, which was the prototype of the Life Ancient Tree.
However, the amount of life energy required for an ancient tree imbued with divine power to grow from seed to maturity is probably astronomical.
It took him a lot of effort just to get it to sprout.
As for Nine Trials of Destruction, it was extremely simple and brutal.
The First Trial: Defeating a Soul Beast over 50,000 years old and a Soul Saint all by yourself.
He can only see the content of the First Trial at present.
But this alone is enough to predict what will happen next.
It could very well be a lone Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Titled Douluo, or even Ferocious Beast and Peerless Douluo.
Each step in the future will likely be more difficult than the last.
Lin Qingmo closed her eyes, a helpless smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
As expected of the Destruction God King's test, it was indeed quite direct.
However, he was not afraid.
The moon has set and the stars are few.
The candles Sea God Hall were not lit.
Only the pale blue light that perpetually emanates from the Sea God illuminates the empty hall.
A dark figure silently slipped in.
The footsteps made no sound at all.
But the moment they stepped through the palace gates, they triggered some kind of perception deep within the hall.
A sudden flash of blue light!
Bo Saixi's figure emerged from the shadows behind the Sea God.
Her long, blue hair moved without wind, and her eyes, which held the depths of the ocean, locked onto the person who approached.
"Who trespasses on the Sea God Hall?"
The voice wasn't loud, but it carried the unique mental pressure of Peerless Douluo, enough to make any Titled Douluo tremble.
The shadowy figure did not stop.
It didn't even slow down.
She walked straight to the center of the main hall and stopped.
Then, he raised his hand and removed the hood of his black robe.
Moonlight streamed down from the skylight in the roof, illuminating a stunningly beautiful yet cold and stern face.
That was a face that shouldn't have been on Sea God Island.
"The Pope of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong."
She stated her name in a flat tone.
"!!!"
Bo Saixi's pupils contracted sharply.
The Pope of the Spirit Hall?!
This identity carries considerable weight.
What brings you to the Sea God Hall?
Bo Saixi suppressed his turbulent emotions, and his voice returned to its indifferent tone.
As Peerless Douluo and a messenger of the gods, she wouldn't dare to give Bibi Dong any attitude.
She was simply curious as to why the Pope of the Spirit Hall was following Lin Qingmo and his group.
She had initially suspected they were just bodyguards for Lin Qingmo and his group, so she hadn't paid any attention to it.
Bibi Dong didn't waste any words.
I'll only say it once.
Her gaze was fixed on Bo Saixi, her tone icy cold.
"A-Qing must not suffer any undue harm while on Sea God Island."
Not even the slightest bit.
This is not a request.
This is not a discussion.
This is a warning.
Bo Saixi narrowed his eyes slightly.
She sensed an undisguised, almost obsessive, protective instinct.
Moreover, the object being protected is a teenager.
interesting.
"The God Trial itself is dangerous; this is a rule set by the Lord Sea God."
Bo Saixi's tone remained unchanged. "I will only follow the will of the Lord Sea God; I will do neither more nor less."
"..."
Bibi Dong stared at her for three seconds.
Then he turned around.
"I hope so."
The footsteps faded into the distance.
The dark figure disappeared into the night outside the palace gates.
Bo Saixi stood alone in the empty hall, his brow slightly furrowed.
The Pope the Spirit Hall personally came to warn her.
Just how many incredible people have gathered around this young man named Lin Qingmo?
She hadn't had time to figure this out yet.
A grand and undeniable voice suddenly echoed in my mind.
[Bo Saixi, please help Lin Qingmo and the others complete their respective God Trial; this is the will of this deity.]
The Oracle of the Sea God!!!
Bo Saixi froze on the spot.
The Pope issued a warning, and then the Sea God personally issued a decree.
A powerful figure in the mortal realm and a God from the Divine Realm both stood up for the same boy on the same night.
"..."
Bo Saixi took a deep breath and slowly closed her eyes.
never mind.
She completely suppressed all her inappropriate thoughts.
I've accepted my fate.
The next morning.
Sunlight bathed Sea God Island, and the Sea Breeze carried a refreshing salty scent.
The group was gathered in a Central Plaza.
Bo Saixi made a personal appearance.
This was the first time she had stood before Lin Qingmo and his group as the Grand Pontiff of Sea God Island.
He didn't seem to care about the curious looks from the crowd.
Her long blue hair cascaded down to her waist; her face was aloof and stunningly beautiful; and she exuded an aura of power like the deep sea.
Everyone unconsciously held their breath.
"Your God Trial will officially begin in three days."
