Two months later.

For the past few days, Bo Saixi has been sitting quietly in the main hall, keeping a close eye on Yu Mingxiao's situation, and has even stopped caring about the affairs on Sea God Island.

Of course, Sea God Island is usually very peaceful, and there are almost no major incidents.

Until today, Yu Mingxiao suddenly opened his eyes, and his aura slowly subsided. This time, he completely concealed it, making him look like an ordinary person with little Soul Power.

Bo Saixi sensed his condition and slowly walked out of the hall.

"You've finally woken up from your reverie."

Yu Mingxiao met her gaze and asked, "Senior Bo Saixi, how long has it taken me to gain this enlightenment?"

Bo Saixi said, "You've entered Deep Meditation state; two months have passed."

"Two months?" Yu Mingxiao nodded. This was probably the longest he had ever spent contemplating, but the gains this time were also particularly significant.

Bo Saixi said, "You've just woken up and haven't eaten for two months. Would you like something to eat?"

"No need," Yu Mingxiao said with a soft laugh. "The High Priestess should also know that at this level, there is no need to eat."

"Since you don't need to eat, then forget it." Bo Saixi nodded slightly and asked with a smile, "Now that you're Titled Douluo, have you decided what your title should be?"

"I've made up my mind. My title will be— Dragon God," Yu Mingxiao said slowly.

"Dragon God?" Bo Saixi nodded and said, "That's a good title."

"Senior, may we begin the Second Trial now?" Yu Mingxiao asked.

His Second Trial was already in his mind; now he was just waiting for the examiner's approval.

The Second Trial: Watching the Tides of Time, watching the ebb and flow of the sea, changing with each passing day, without interfering or being moved, seeing through the passage of time with a calm mind, is considered passing the test. You can withdraw at any time, without time limit.

"No problem."

Bo Saixi nodded and said softly, "This Second Trial of yours is the first of its kind since the birth of our Sea God Island."

"I can't really say what it means to see through the passage of time. I really don't understand why the Lord Sea God would set such a question."

"Generally speaking, the Second Trial involves breaking through the blockade of the Ring Sea."

"But perhaps breaking through the Ring Sea is too easy for you..."

Breaking through the Ring Sea, simply put, means breaking through the blockade without killing any of the Sea Soul Beast and successfully reaching the other side of the Ring Sea.

Although this ring -Ring Sea has the word "sea" in its name, it is not very large, with an overall width of only about two hundred meters.

Yu Mingxiao could climb the 1001st step with his bare body, and even with the additional restrictions of not being able to use his Martial Soul or Spirit Bone, breaking through the blockade of the Ring Sea would be no problem for him.

"Seeing through the passage of time..." Yu Mingxiao had a vague feeling that he had guessed the Sea God's plan.

"Come on, I'll take you to a quiet place where you can see the tides rise and fall every day," Bo Saixi interrupted his thoughts and said softly.

"Okay, thank you for your trouble," Yu Mingxiao said.

Bo Saixi led him away from Sea God Mountain and all the way to the east side of Sea God Island, to a cliff overlooking the sea.

Yu Mingxiao looked down and saw the tide crashing against the cliff below. The surging waves kept pounding against the stone walls, and the long-term erosion of the tides had made the rock walls mottled and uneven.

Bo Saixi said, "This is it. Whether you can pass the Second Trial depends on your own comprehension. I'll be going now, but I'll come back to visit you often."

"Alright." Yu Mingxiao nodded slightly, looked down at the stone wall and the tide, and said no more.

Seeing how quickly he had entered a meditative state, Bo Saixi, holding her golden scepter, silently withdrew.

Yu Mingxiao did not go to see Bo Saixi, but quietly watched the tide.

Watching the Tides of Time... He actually also possesses abilities related to time, but he rarely uses them because he hasn't sought a way to manipulate time.

As for where his time manipulation ability came from...

That story begins with the Golden Dragon King.

The original Divine Sense of the Golden Dragon King nourished its Sea of Spirit, not only Martial Soul Evolution into the Radiant Dragon King, but also imbuing its first Mental Soul Core with a trace of the power of time. In addition, the six drops of Golden Dragon blood further enhanced its time-related abilities.

After breaking through to the ninth Soul Ring, his spiritual power directly sublimated, almost one step away from completely transforming into another realm, which is the God-level, also known as the Divine Origin Realm.

He vaguely felt that once his mental strength reached the God-level, he would be able to initially control the power of time.

Perhaps, this Second Trial by the Sea God will be the opportunity for me to break through to God-level mental power.

Mental strength is extremely important.

After breaking through Level 90, he gained a preliminary understanding of the Laws of space through his mental power, and was able to tear through space and travel freely like Di Tian.

Yu Mingxiao watched the tide for half a day but didn't feel anything. He felt that something was missing, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

He thought for a moment and decided to condense the Second Soul Core first. Maybe once the Soul Core was condensed, he would have a clue.

He had planned to condense his Second Soul Core once he arrived at Sea God Island, but he has been putting it off until now.

Yu Mingxiao looked around and, seeing that there was no one there, raised his palm and used his mental power to control a Sisi liquid Soul Power to flow out.

Before long, a vortex of Soul Power was formed.

To condense Soul Core, it's best to find a place with abundant spiritual energy.

When condensing, the surrounding elemental energy will continuously flow into the body, helping to compress the Soul Power and stabilize the Soul Core, thus greatly increasing the success rate.

Furthermore, the more energy absorbed during condensation, the stronger the Soul Core will be after it takes shape.

The elemental energy of heaven and earth on Sea God Island is still quite abundant, so condensing Soul Core here shouldn't be a big problem.

On the other side.

Bo Saixi had just returned to the Sea God Mountain temple when the voice of the Sea God suddenly rang in his ears:

"Bo Saixi, Yu Mingxiao's God-level Trial will require your guidance and assistance. You will stay by his side during the rest of the test."

"Huh?" Bo Saixi was taken aback, never expecting that he would need her by his side for the God-level Trial. She couldn't help but ask, "May I ask, Lord Sea God, how can I help him pass the God-level Trial?"

Sea God said calmly, "You'll need to figure this out together. If I tell you, the assessment will be useless. Go now."

"Yes." Bo Saixi had no choice but to suppress her doubts and leave the main hall, heading towards the cliff top.

Sea God sighed softly, "Alas, what do you mean by seeing through the flow of time? I'm just creating an opportunity for you two to spend time together. I'm only worried that Bo Saixi is too old, and that the young man might not be interested. I just hope that these two get along well, develop feelings for each other, and then we'll determine whether they've passed the test..."
