Impressive, You Found the Rules So Quickly!

A vast, gentle, and vibrant green torrent, like a gushing spring of life, instantly enveloped Lin Xia!

Lin Xia's slightly pale face regained its rosy color at a visible speed, and the consumed Soul Power was replenished like a flood, even more turbulent than before!

Immediately afterwards, the air above Venusaur's head distorted slightly, as an invisible force Sheer Force gathered and condensed the most intense midday sunlight!

Synthesis!

A condensed beam of light, over ten meters in diameter and nearly pure white, tore through the golden mist of the Sea God's Light, descending with a deafening roar like Divine Punishment, precisely enveloping Lin Xia and Venusaur!

This is not an attack, but the ultimate infusion of the purest light energy and Life Force!

As the white light entered his body, Lin Xia's aura surged, and his Soul Power fluctuations instantly reached a heart-stopping peak!

His eyes flashed with a sharp light as he looked at his chosen target— Xie Yue.

"Xie Yue, prepare to receive!"

Lin Xia gave a low shout, formed hand seals, and his Soul Power, which had been pushed to its limit by the double amplification, surged out with the Nature Power, establishing a deep connection with Venusaur that was beyond the ordinary.

Root-Tendril Connection, Penetrating the Mysterious!

Venusaur Ingrain in the platform. Although its tough roots cannot directly Absorb the energy of the steps, through the symbiotic contract, it transforms the abundant vitality from the earth and part of the pressure it bears into a solid and powerful supporting force, which is continuously transmitted to Lin Xia!

Lin Xia took a deep breath, as if trying to absorb all the energy around her into her lungs, and then pushed her right hand forward with a sudden burst of energy!

"King's Rock!"

Fifth Soul Skill - King's Rock!

An invisible yet overwhelming force surged forth from Lin Xia's center!

This force, carrying the weight of the earth, the vitality of the forest, and a sublime majesty originating from the very source of life, precisely Lock-On the Xie Yue!

In an instant, Xie Yue was lifted up as if by an invisible hand! His muscles bulged, his bones made a slight popping sound, and his body's strength, resilience, and explosive power were enhanced in every way!

The speed of Soul Power circulation suddenly increased, and the total amount seemed to have temporarily surged!

His mental perception became even more acute, and his thinking became incredibly clear! A domineering fighting spirit burst forth from his silver eyes!

"Roar!"

Xie Yue couldn't help but let out a low roar, feeling an unprecedented surge of power within his body, as if he could tear mountains apart with a mere gesture.

He looked at the golden-blue steps, feeling no longer any of the previous heavy pressure, only a burning desire to conquer.

"Superior!"

Lin Xia's voice was hoarse with exhaustion; maintaining the triple powerful boost was a huge burden for both him and Venusaur.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xie Yue, crowned with the "King's Rock," was like a silver arrow released from a bow, carrying an indomitable momentum as he strode up the first step!

Boom!

The golden-blue aura fluctuated violently, but Xie Yue's figure only swayed slightly before he stood firmly!

The terrifying pressure that had once made even the Soul Emperor kneel down seemed to have lessened considerably on him at this moment!

He kept moving, braving the surging divine light, one step, two steps... his speed far exceeding any previous attempt!

Level 10, Level 15, Level 20!

He actually rushed past the section that had previously required him to exert all his strength, and continued climbing upwards without stopping!

Yan stared in disbelief, his mouth agape wide enough to fit an egg.

"Holy crap! That's incredible?!"

Hu Liena's clenched fists trembled slightly, and her purple eyes gleamed with a strange light.

"It's done! It really is done!"

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling also held their breath, watching the silver figure break through the sea of golden and blue light with unstoppable momentum.

The light from the Nine Heart Begonia in Ye Lingling's palm swayed slightly. Although it couldn't directly affect the steps, her Soul Power was already quietly circulating, ready to provide support at any time.

Lin Xia stared intently at Xie Yue's back, her face pale from the rapid depletion of her Soul Power, but her eyes shone with an astonishing brightness.

Venusaur emitted a low hum, its massive body trembled slightly, and the flowers on its back opened and closed at full speed to maintain the flow of Synthesis.

"Forty-five... forty-eight... fifty!"

Yan excitedly counted the number of steps.

Just as Xie Yue stepped onto the fiftieth step, a sudden change occurred!

The golden-blue divine light enveloping the steps suddenly became viscous like liquid, and a terrifying pressure, far exceeding the previous one and seemingly emanating from the deepest abyss, descended with a deafening roar!

Xie Yue's charging figure suddenly stopped, as if he had crashed into an invisible wall of sighs!

The aura of "King's Rock" covering his entire body flickered violently, emitting a hum that seemed unable to bear the strain!

"Puff!"

Xie Yue's face flushed red instantly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood into the golden-blue mist.

His upright body was bent violently by the sudden doubling of the pressure, and his right knee slammed uncontrollably into the cold stone steps!

The Moon Blade Martial Soul emitted a sharp clang beside him, as if it might shatter at any moment!

"Xie Yue!"

Hu Liena gasped in shock, her face turning deathly pale.

Lin Xia's pupils contracted sharply.

"The limit? No! It's the change in the rules of the staircase itself!"

He clearly felt that level 50 was like a watershed moment, where the nature of the pressure underwent a qualitative change!

The support provided by Venusaur instantly became extremely difficult to obtain.

"Hold on!"

Lin Xia gritted her teeth, ignoring the burning pain in her meridians, and frantically poured the last of her Soul Power from her Soul Core into the connection!

The beam of light on Venusaur's back became even more dazzling.

Xie Yue knelt on one knee on the fiftieth step, his teeth clenched so tightly that blood seeped from his gums.

The overwhelming pressure almost crushed him, but the surging power from his companions within him continued to roar!

He let out a beastly growl, and with an immense force that seemed to break his spine, the muscles in his left leg bulged like a dragon, and he straightened his body inch by inch!

He raised his head, his silver eyes burning with an indomitable flame, staring intently at the steps above.

Level 51, so close yet seemingly an insurmountable chasm.

Is it a withdrawal?

Or... a Final Gambit charge?

After a moment of silence, Xie Yue chose to give up.

Since there's still a long time before this trial is over, there's absolutely no need to make things so life-threatening right now.

Everyone understood Xie Yue's decision to step down.

And it was at this very moment.

"Clap clap clap!"

Applause rang out, and before anyone knew it, the red figure reappeared, this time right on the steps leading to the Sea God Temple.

Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo, descended slowly, her noble face filled with admiration. The applause came from her delicate, white hands.

Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo, looked at Lin Xia with admiration.

"Very good, as expected of those chosen by the Sea God's Nine Trials. To have found the true secret of the Sea God's Light so quickly is truly commendable; the high-level trials bestowed upon you by the Lord Sea God have not been in vain."

Hearing the praise from the strongest being on Sea God Island.

Lin Xia responded with a smile:

"I dare not accept your praise, senior. But I believe we will definitely be able to pass the Sea God's test."
