The First 100,000-Year Soul Ring, Another Top-Tier Assessment
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!"
Dense bubbles covered the entire body of the Evil Orca King. Although Qian Xunfeng's Sea God Martial Soul had no Soul Ring, it was empowered by the power of the sea and the Divine Slaughter's Domain. Its power was still comparable to that of Six-Winged Angel. Moreover, his Soul Power was inexhaustible on the sea.
The intense barrage lasted for nearly half an hour. The Evil Orca King's thick skin, like paper soaked in too much water, was torn and ripped apart, leaving not a single intact piece of flesh on its body. It was completely killed by the relentless attack, lying belly up on the sea, its body resembling a small hill.
Around them lay the corpses of hundreds of Evil Spirit Orca Soul Beast, belly up, lying on their backs on the sea surface.
Without the Evil Orca King's leadership, the remaining Evil Spirit Orca offered little resistance, and against Xiao Bai, they had no chance to self-destruct. The six members of the Spirit Hall, having recovered, joined forces with the Demon Soul Great White Shark and quickly wiped out all the remaining Evil Spirit Orca, bringing this racial war to a perfect close.
The pleasantly familiar light screen reappeared, and the words that appeared in the minds of Xie Yue, Qiangu Liuyun, Bai Chenxiang Tian Yue, Du Gu Dugu Yan, Yu Shuirou, and others were all the same.
"The Fourth Trial, the Shark-Whale War, is complete. Due to special circumstances, the difficulty of the test has been reduced, and the reward has been halved. The Demon Soul Great White Shark suffered less than 10% casualties, so the reward is doubled. The reward is a one-level increase in Soul Power." This time, the Tian Yue's five-hundred-year Soul Ring age increase did not appear.
An aged yet majestic voice echoed in Qian Xunfeng's mind, "Successfully defeated the Evil Orca King. Fourth Trial complete. Sea God Affinity increased by 10%, total affinity 35%."
The golden Trident Mark lit up, its previous dim and restrained appearance replaced by a dazzling light, as if a star had appeared on Qian Xunfeng's forehead. At the same time, Qian Xunfeng felt as if a door had opened in his spiritual world. Pushing open this door with his spiritual power would immediately lead him into a golden world.
None of them immediately expressed their joy at passing the test and receiving the reward. Instead, their eyes were all fixed on the sea ahead, where a sailboat was approaching.
Xiao Bai poked its head out and said, "The humans on this ship are really courting death. This sea area is the territory of the Evil Orca King. If we were sailing through the territory of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, we might have a chance to survive. But the Evil Orca King is bloodthirsty and will never allow any ship to sail over the sea area he rules."
"If we hadn't taken down those Evil Spirit Orca, none of the people on this ship would have survived. They were really lucky."
Tian Yue said, "That ship seems to be heading this way."
As the ship drew less than two kilometers away, the seven members of the Spirit Hall saw a stunningly beautiful chestnut-haired girl in a blue dress standing on the deck— Ning Rongrong.
As they got closer, Ning Rongrong, whose mental strength was much weaker, also saw her friends from the Spirit Hall and her mentor.
"Xiao Feng, Teacher Xie Yue, everyone!" Ning Rongrong waved, her face beaming with joy. Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo hadn't lied to her after all; her friends were indeed training on Sea God Island. The Spirit Hall was truly kind to her!
The ship finally reached the corpse of the Evil Orca King. Tian Yue asked, "Rongrong, what brings you here?"
"We're a team, so of course I'm coming too. It's really awful that you didn't invite me when you went to Sea God Island for training." Ning Rongrong pretended to be a little angry.
Xie Yue said, "Rongrong, it's not that we don't want to take you, but you are the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Sea God Island is far from the mainland, and there are countless dangers. I guess Sect Master Ning won't agree to let you go with us."
So Dad is dead now.
Ning Rongrong silently said something to herself.
"Little guys, how's your strength improving?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo stood on the deck and asked the seven people.
Apart from the relatively composed Xie Yue, the six of them looked at each other, and smug smiles appeared on their lips.
"Brothers, activate your Soul Ring!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Xunfeng six revealed their Soul Ring.
Qian Xunfeng had two purple, three black, and three red rings under his feet; Tian Yue had four purple and three black rings under his feet; the others all had the standard seven Soul Rings: two yellow, two purple, and three black.
"Your strength has improved so much?!"
Ning Rongrong gasped in surprise. They had all taken Immortal Grade Herb, so their cultivation levels should have been similar, like in the Elite Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition. But now, even Yu Shuirou, whose cultivation was three levels lower than hers, had reached the Soul Saint, while her own cultivation level was 10 levels behind.
Yu Shuirou's Martial Soul is water, and Sea God Island is the perfect cultivation environment for her. On Sea God Island, her cultivation speed has greatly increased, allowing her to catch up with everyone else.
"I want to be tempered! I want to be tempered just like you!"
Ning Rongrong cried out. Being left far behind by her friends was a huge blow to her, especially since she couldn't catch up with Tian Yue and the others. Her level of excellence was not as good as theirs, and after several years of no interaction, the chances of Qian Xunfeng being with her in the future would be greatly reduced.
Since Qian Xunfeng's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul Ring were already full, and his own cultivation level had not yet reached the conditions for absorbing the ninth Soul Ring, he used the Sea God Martial Soul to absorb the Soul Ring of the Evil Orca King. He sat cross-legged on the belly of the Evil Orca King and used his spiritual power to guide the Soul Ring.
Ning Rongrong was extremely surprised to see that Qian Xunfeng also Twin Martial Souls, just like Tang San. At the same time, she felt proud of her judgment in choosing a man, and secretly thought of her deceased father and her grandfather, Sword and Bone.
Since her father, Sword Grandpa, and Grandpa Bone all support the Spirit Hall, she will certainly uphold their legacy. After she finishes her training on Sea God Island and returns to the mainland, she will lead the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to fully support the Spirit Hall!
After three days and two nights, Qian Xunfeng finally finished absorbing the Evil Orca King. When the dark red light completely subsided, a dark red Soul Bone broke out of the Evil Orca King's body and slowly floated in front of Qian Xunfeng.
It was a Soul Bone shaped like a leg bone. Upon closer inspection, it could be seen that it was a right leg bone, which was exactly the Soul Bone that Qian Xunfeng was lacking.
Among the remains of the dead Evil Orca King, a bone with an age of 40,000 years was found. Since it was impossible to determine which Evil Spirit Orca had dropped this Soul Bone, it was given to Xie Yue, who had killed the most of them.
Afterwards, the group boarded a ship and returned to Sea God Island. Ning Rongrong participated in the Sea God Trial and, just like in the original story, passed the top-level test, the Top-tier Seven Trials.
