Tang Hao's Black-Level Six Trials, the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen's Attack!

Han Jing had originally thought that by going to sea with Yu Changge, he could provide some help at crucial moments, but now it seemed that he could only share some of the guard and navigation work with His Highness.

As for the actual battle, it's probably not his place to get involved yet.

Yu Changge ignored the crowd's astonishment and instead had Xiao Huang shrink its body so that it could stand on the deck and continue to radiate its dragon might.

Since the Sea Soul Beast in the unknown seas are becoming increasingly powerful, we might as well let them continue to unleash their dragon might, which will at least avoid unnecessary battles in most cases.

This way, he could both protect the ship and save time.

As for the Sea Soul Beast that truly dare to challenge the majesty of the Radiant Dragon King, it's not too late to deal with them then.

However, by then, the Sea Soul Beast we encounter will likely be at Hundred-Thousand-Year Tier.

The Sun Moon continued its journey.

In the days that followed, Sea Soul Beast would still occasionally appear around the ship, but under the suppression of the Radiant Dragon King's dragon might, they would mostly take the initiative to avoid the ship and dare not get too close.

Therefore, although the crew remained vigilant, they no longer had to worry as much as they did at the beginning about the Sea Soul Beast suddenly ramming into the ship.

Daily voyages gradually returned to normal. Han Jing was in charge of arranging shifts, the veteran crew members adjusted the route according to ocean currents and wind direction, Yu Changge devoted more time to cultivation.

Gu Yuena gradually adapted to life at sea.

She often followed Yu Changge to the deck to observe the fish that occasionally leaped out of the sea, or to ask curious questions about various things on the ship.

Knowing that she had lost her memory, Yu Changge patiently explained common sense about the human world to her, and sometimes even taught her to recognize markings on nautical charts.

Gu Yuena learned relatively quickly; however, her interest in knowledge seemed far less than her interest in food.

Whenever it was mealtime, she would always be the first to appear beside Yu Changge, carefully checking what delicious food was available that day.

Yu Changge gradually got used to this kind of life.

Meanwhile, in the distant sky, a figure was quietly following the Sun Moon.

It was Di Tian.

Ever since Gu Yuena left the Star Dou Forest in human form, he had been secretly keeping an eye on her movements, worried that she might encounter danger, and also worried that Yu Changge might really do something to the Master.

After all, Yu Changge had said that the Master's transformed form was even more impressive than Bibi Dong's.

At the moment Yu Changge released the Radiant Dragon King Martial Soul, Di Tian's expression clearly changed.

The Ultimate Light Attribute and the Dragon Clan's might contained within his Martial Soul gave him a very peculiar sense of familiarity.

It really felt like my father was still alive.

This time, Di Tian also knew that Yu Changge planned to go to the Dragon Graveyard, and perhaps he would be able to see his father there.

As Di Tian was shaken, his gaze toward Yu Changge became even more complex.

Di Tian remained silent for a moment before finally turning his gaze to Gu Yuena.

At this moment, Gu Yuena was standing next to Yu Changge, listening to him explain the contents of the sea chart, and occasionally she would show a puzzled look because of certain questions.

She looked no different from an ordinary human girl, and even seemed more innocent now than when she was the Silver Dragon King, when she was indifferent.

But Di Tian knew that it was only a temporary state after his Master had sealed away his memories and power. One day, his Master would regain all his memories and transform back into the Silver Dragon King!

Di Tian did not approach rashly, but continued to maintain his distance, silently observing the interaction between the two.

Judging from the current situation, Yu Changge has indeed not done anything to harm her Master. On the contrary, she takes care of her in every way and tries her best to meet her needs.

Whether this goodwill can be sustained remains to be seen and will require more time to prove.

"My Master, I hope your choice this time is the right one."

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

The Sun Moon did not suffer significant damage, and there were no casualties.

Yu Changge had a premonition that it would be less than a month before they reached the Star Luo Continent.

Sea God Island.

Some time ago, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao completed the Sea God Black-Level Fifth Trial, and both of them received the reward of the Sea God Trial, each increasing their Soul Power by one level.

Tang Xiao's Soul Power officially broke through to level 89, while Tang Hao also improved from level 85 to level 86, taking another step closer to the Titled Douluo.

Bo Saixi was naturally very satisfied with the progress made by the two.

After all, they had completed the Black-Level Assessment of Sea God Island, and passing the first five tests in a row was enough to prove their talent and strength.

However, before Tang Hao could fully enjoy the joy of his breakthrough, a voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

[The Black-Level Sixth Trial has begun!]

[Assessment Content: Accompanied by the Demon Soul Great White Shark, Xiao Bai, travel to the designated sea area to explore the uncharted waters of Sea God Island and spread the Sea God's fame to new territories.]

[During the expansion, try to subdue the local Sea Soul Beast and make them believers of the Sea God and allies of Sea God Island. Evil Sea Soul Beast that refuse to worship the Sea God Sea God and actively attack his messengers can be directly eradicated.]

[No other Soul Master are allowed to interfere during the assessment. Any interference from other Soul Master will result in immediate failure.]

[Evaluation period: One year.]

[Punishment for failing the assessment: Elimination!]

When all the information in his mind surfaced, Tang Hao's expression immediately turned rather grim.

If it were merely about heading to a new sea area to spread the fame of the Sea God, it wouldn't be a big problem. What truly concerned him was the significance behind this trial.

After all, Sea God Island now has a clear heir, and that is Bibi Dong!

If he successfully completes the Black-Level Sixth Trial, opens up a new sea area, and then gets the local Sea Soul Beast to submit to Sea God Island, wouldn't all these achievements be attributed to Bibi Dong, the successor of the Sea God?

Thinking of this, Tang Hao's feelings suddenly became somewhat complicated.

It's hard to accept that you've risked your life to explore new sea areas and painstakingly subdue Sea Soul Beast, only to find that you've paved the way for someone else.

Moreover, they also need to subdue as many Sea Soul Beast as possible in that area, which is no easy task!

However, he had no choice at all.

The punishment for failing the assessment is annihilation; if he still cannot complete the task after more than a year, he will lose his life.

Furthermore, this assessment has a very troublesome restriction: no other Soul Master are allowed to interfere!

This means that even if he wanted to ask his grandfather for help, it wouldn't work at all.

Tang Hao took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his dissatisfaction. "Forget it, let's finish the assessment first!"

One month later.

After Tang Hao got ready, he went to the Ring Sea, where Xiao Bai had been waiting for a long time.

Tang Hao looked at Xiao Bai and said, "I'll need your help to lead the way from now on."

Xiao Bai wasn't dissatisfied at all; as long as it wasn't a mission like the last one involving killing Evil Orca Population, he was fine with anything.

"Come on aboard. I'll try my best to take you away from dangerous waters, but there are some places I haven't even been to before, so you'll have to be prepared."

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao didn't say anything more.

He is now a level 86 Soul Douluo, which can be considered a strong player.

Although the strength of the Sea Soul Beast should not be underestimated, as long as they don't encounter those extremely powerful beings, and with Xiao Bai around, they should still be in no danger.

Then, Tang Hao leaped up and landed steadily on Xiao Bai's back.

Xiao Bai let out a low cry, and its massive body swiftly submerged into the sea, heading in the direction indicated by the Sea God.

As they traveled further and further from Sea God Island, the surrounding seas gradually became unfamiliar.

Tang Hao stood on Xiao Bai's back, occasionally observing the surrounding situation, but he wasn't too worried.

His main task this time is to explore new sea areas and spread the fame of the Sea God, which shouldn't be too difficult.

The aura of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast emanating from Xiao Bai was so strong that other Sea Soul Beast dared not approach it.

However, Tang Hao clearly underestimated the danger of this sea area. If it weren't dangerous, why would it be used as the Sixth Trial test?

Not long after, Xiao Bai suddenly slowed down.

She sensed unusual presences ahead, and quite a few of them, approaching their location from the depths of the sea.

Xiao Bai's expression immediately turned serious. "Tang Hao, be careful, something's coming from ahead!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao immediately released his mental energy and cautiously observed his surroundings.

The next moment, the once calm sea suddenly churned, and dark figures rapidly emerged from the water, surrounding Xiao Bai's location.

Those were not ordinary Sea Soul Beast, but a swarm of ferocious sea ants.

They vary in size, with their shells displaying a mix of jet black and dark purple colors. They have sharp mouthparts on their heads and slender, segmented limbs covering their bodies.

A dense swarm of figures surged in from all directions, their sheer number sending chills down one's spine.

Tang Hao frowned. Although he didn't know what kind of Sea Soul Beast they were, he could sense the Soul Power fluctuations emanating from them, which were obviously not weak.

Behind the swarm of sea ants, an even larger figure slowly emerged from the sea.

It was a gigantic Sea Soul Beast with a bulky body; the part of it that was above the water was already more than ten meters long.

Its body is a nauseating dark gray, its thick carapace is covered with uneven bumps, and its abdomen is abnormally swollen, covered with a sticky, translucent membrane.

What's most unsettling is its head, which is almost devoid of facial features.

Several dark red compound eyes huddled together, their sharp mouthparts opening and closing repeatedly, and their slender tentacles swaying slowly in the seawater, emanating a chilling aura.

Surrounding it are numerous ants of its kind, a queen ant who leads the entire colony!

Upon recognizing the other party, Xiao Bai's expression changed drastically. "This soul beast is incredibly strong! Our situation seems to be in trouble."

She never expected that she would encounter such a powerful being in this sea area.

What alarmed her even more was that, in addition to the rich water-attribute Soul Power emanating from the other party, there was also an unusually powerful mental fluctuation.

This is a Sea Soul Beast with both spiritual and water attributes, and its strength surpasses that of the Evil Orca King she encountered before!

Xiao Bai didn't even know the names of the group of Sea Soul Beast in front of him!

Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen appeared, it did not immediately launch an attack, but instead carefully examined the person and beast in front of it, especially Tang Hao.

It clearly developed a great interest in this human.

In this sea area, there are numerous Sea Soul Beast, and powerful individuals are not uncommon, but humans are extremely rare.

Moreover, Tang Hao exuded an extraordinary aura, making him a special target for the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen, who had always led the clan.

It let out a sharp hiss, and the surrounding sea ants immediately pounced on Xiao Bai and Tang Hao.

Xiao Bai dared not be negligent. The aura of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast suddenly erupted, and it quickly mobilized the seawater to counterattack.

A large expanse of seawater surged up, sending the leading sea ants flying. She took the opportunity to try and break through with Tang Hao.

However, the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen gave her no chance. Her massive body trembled violently, and a terrifying mental wave suddenly spread out, instantly enveloping the entire sea area.

Xiao Bai felt a sharp pain in his head, which affected the ability he was about to use.

Immediately afterwards, the water flow on the sea surface suddenly changed, and columns of water rose from different directions, blocking all her escape routes.

Xiao Bai's expression changed drastically. She quickly adjusted her direction, trying to avoid the opponent's attack, but in that instant, the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen had already appeared to her side.

Its sharp mandibles suddenly thrust out and slammed into Xiao Bai's body.

"Ah!"

Xiao Bai let out a painful screech as its massive body was blasted away, its scales forcibly torn apart, and its blood quickly stained the surrounding seawater red.

She never expected to suffer such serious injuries in such a short time; her opponent's strength was clearly far beyond her expectations.

Who are you?!

"We are sea Sea Soul Beast under the rule of Lord Sea Lord Sea God. Are you trying to make an enemy of the Sea God?"

The Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen chuckled, "I am the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen, the queen of the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Clan!"

"Sea God? What's that? This entire sea area is under my jurisdiction. You've trespassed into my territory, and you expect me to let you off?"

However, the Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen did not continue to pursue Xiao Bai, but instead turned her attention to Tang Hao.

Tang Hao had already unleashed his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, attempting to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

But before he could actually make a move, an even more terrifying mental force had already enveloped his mind.

Tang Hao felt the scene before him suddenly change. The originally hideous and ugly Soul-Devouring Sea Ant Queen had transformed into a stunningly beautiful human woman in his sight.

The other person had a graceful figure, a beautiful face, and eyes that seemed to hold endless tenderness as she looked at him with a smile.

Tang Hao was startled and immediately realized that he had fallen into the opponent's mental illusion. He hurriedly activated his Soul Power, trying to break free from this influence.
