• Bo Saixi recounted how she, Qian Daoliu, and Tang Chen had reached rank ninety-nine, and admitted that she had once favored Tang Chen before he and Qian Daoliu married and never returned.
• Bo Saixi explained that rank ninety-nine was the world’s limit, and that godhood required either immense power of faith or inheriting an existing godhood.

• Yu Tianlong understood that failure could leave Bo Saixi no choice but to kill everyone who knew Sea God Island’s secrets, but he was not particularly afraid.

Yu Tianlong began the Sea God’s Seventh Trial by trying to pull the Sea God Trident from the Sea God Platform. He raised part of its head, but the weapon grew too heavy to lift further as it drained his blood.

• Yu Tianlong approached the Sea God Trident while Xiao Wu, Hu Liena, and Ning Rongrong waited behind him.
• Ning Rongrong used her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to enhance Yu Tianlong, who gripped the trident and directed Sea God’s Light into it.
• The trident heated and burned Yu Tianlong’s hands, but he kept hold as his blood awakened its golden patterns.
• Yu Tianlong used his strength and Sea God’s Light to pull the trident partway out of the ground, revealing its three-pronged head.
• The trident became too heavy for Yu Tianlong to lift farther while its patterns increasingly drained his blood.

Yu Tianlong used the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to unlock the Sea God Trident and finally began pulling it from the ground. The trident’s release illuminated Sea God Island and summoned a vast, human-shaped image of the Sea God in the sky.

• Yu Tianlong’s Sea God’s Light drew the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud from his body, and it transformed to fit the hollow in the Sea God Trident.
• The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud locked into the trident, spreading golden magical patterns throughout the Sea God Hall as Yu Tianlong strained to pull the weapon free.
• Yu Tianlong’s blood ran over the trident as it slowly rose, while the Sea God Platform, hall, and mountain shook.
• The Sea God Hall sent a golden pillar through the clouds, and the Seven Sacred Pillars added their beams to it.
• A golden, armored image of the Sea God appeared above Sea God Island, and its guardian Douluos and residents knelt in worship.

Yu Tianlong pulled the Sea God Trident from the Sea God Platform, completing his seventh trial and receiving the Sea God’s recognition. After the ocean’s creatures and the women witnessed the Sea God’s golden phantom, Yu Tianlong collapsed beneath the trident, and Bo Saixi struggled to lift it from him.

• Ning Rongrong, Hu Liena, and Xiao Wu rushed to Yu Tianlong, but they could not move the Sea God Trident from his body.
• Bo Saixi released her Martial Soul and all nine Soul Rings as she tried to lift the trident.

• Ning Rongrong amplified Bo Saixi’s strength so she could lift the Sea God Trident off Yu Tianlong, then offered to give him blood to replace what he had lost.
• The Sea God’s Heart and an immortal herb rapidly healed Yu Tianlong’s wounds, and Bo Saixi judged that he would recover fully after several days of rest.

• Bo Saixi told Yu Tianlong that he could leave Sea God Island, and he invited her to return with him after resting for two days.

• Yu Tianlong took the trident and left the Sea God Hall with the four women, where the Seven Sacred Pillar guardian Douluos knelt to salute him.
• Yu Tianlong told the guardian Douluos that he and the women would leave Sea God Island to complete his Eighth Trial on the continent and return for the Ninth Trial.
