Ch. 323The Way of Balance.
Yang Yunhai brought Tian Jun and two Soul Bones to Sea God Island, where Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing upgraded their cultivation and completed their second Sea God trials. Their new trials required them to fight the Evil Orca Group, while Yang Yunhai explained how the battle served the sea’s natural balance; Zhu Zhuqing then began absorbing a God Bestowed Soul Ring.
- Yang Yunhai arrived at Sea God Island with Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and Tian Jun, then gave Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing Soul Bones from Tian Jun’s sacrificed brothers.
- Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuqing replaced their old Soul Bones and reached cultivation bottlenecks, then joined Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong to complete the Ring Sea trial by defeating Xiao Bai’s defense.
- Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, and Ning Rongrong received their second-trial rewards and learned their third trials involved the Evil Orca Group and the Demon Soul Great White Sharks.
- Yang Yunhai explained that the conflict between the sharks and orcas maintained the ocean’s balance, leaving Xiao Bai troubled by the inevitable losses to her clan.
- Yang Yunhai advised Zhu Zhuqing to absorb her God Bestowed Soul Ring before beginning the next trial, and she started absorbing it at their Sea Horse City residence.
