Lin Chen gently stroked her hair and said softly, " Dong'er, I'm confident that even if things don't go well, I can retreat. Don't forget, I have several powerful Soul Bone Skill; they can't hold me back."
Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes flashed. "Fine, since you insist on going, I'll go down with you!"
"No!" Lin Chen refused decisively. "I'm confident in my ability to advance or retreat, but if it doesn't work out, I'm not confident I can take you with me."
Bibi Dong remained silent for a long while, then said softly, "Alright, go, but remember, you are carrying not only your own life, but also the lives of me and my sisters."
Lin Chen nodded solemnly, then resolutely plunged into the deep sea.
Thump! Splash...
He had some visibility when he first entered the sea, but when he descended to several thousand meters, he was surrounded by endless darkness. If it weren't for his strong Soul Power, which allowed him to sense fluctuations within tens of feet around him, he might have lost his way.
Lin Chen's sword strike landed on the back of the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, which still carried sword energy. Lin Chen was able to vaguely sense the direction of the Demon Whale King from this, which is why he was confident in hunting it down in the deep sea.
Once you can pinpoint the opponent's location, the rest is a battle of skill!
Meanwhile, the Temple of the Sea God
The tall and fiery Bo Saixi stood in the hall, scepter in hand, her pale purple eyes gazing indifferently at the gloomy young man before her.
" The Seventh Trial of Sea God begins now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang San instantly summoned the Clear Sky Hammer and swiftly smashed it towards Bo Saixi.
Bo Saixi remained motionless, her body and scepter emitting a pale golden energy that directly blocked Tang San's attack.
Bang!
Tang San's pupils turned slightly red as he continuously channeled his Soul Power into the Clear Sky Hammer, letting out a low roar, "Hahhhhh..."
Boom boom boom...
A powerful shockwave rippled outwards, sending Tang San flying, while Bo Saixi remained unmoved and unaffected.
" First Soul Skill, Surging Waves!"
With a wave of her hand, Bo Saixi unleashed a massive blue ocean that swept towards Tang San.
Tang San's expression changed slightly, and he shouted in a low voice, " Clear Sky True Body, Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer!"
whoosh whoosh...
After saying that, he unleashed more than a dozen hammer blows in succession. His terrifying Soul Power clashed head-on with Bo Saixi's Soul Skill, canceling each other out and annihilating each other.
Boom boom boom...
Several dozen breaths later, Tang San was submerged in seawater again, falling to the ground in a sorry state. He couldn't even withstand a single blow!
Given that this place is at the level of Peerless Douluo, and also at sea, even Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu are no match for Bo Saixi. How could the half-crippled Tang San possibly be a match for her?
Even if Tang San still possesses the Blue Silver Bloodline, he is absolutely no match for Bo Saixi!
A hint of disappointment flashed in Bo Saixi's pale purple eyes, and she said expressionlessly, "Is that all you've got? Why did Tang Chen insist on recommending you for the Nine Trials?"
Tang Chen didn't admire him; he had no choice. The Clear Sky Sect had been destroyed, leaving only Tang San as its young sole survivor.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang San felt extremely aggrieved. Xiao Wu was taken away, he had been constantly suppressed and beaten by Lin Chen. Now that he finally had a chance for revenge, how could he give up so easily?
"Today, I'm sure I can last for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"
" Great Sumeru Hammer!"
Tang San let out a low shout, and the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand instantly transformed into a behemoth over a hundred meters tall, slamming down fiercely towards Bo Saixi: "Take this hit again if you dare!"
Bo Saixi glanced at him calmly with her unwavering eyes. " Third Soul Skill, Sea God's Gaze."
As soon as she finished speaking, a pale golden phantom appeared behind her, which then transformed into a giant golden hand that reached out to grab Tang San.
This Soul Skill is one of her few control skills. Soul Master within a radius of several miles are all severely suppressed in terms of both Soul Power and Divine Power, and then firmly controlled in her 'hand'.
Boom boom boom... Bang!
"Ughhh..." Tang San screamed and knelt on the ground again, with a large golden hand still on his body.
Bo Saixi said expressionlessly, " Tang San, what other moves do you have? If you don't use them now, you might not have another chance."
A few breaths later, as his Soul Power dissipated, Tang San finally stood up in a disheveled state. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Bo Saixi and roared, " Ninth Soul Skill, Hammer Shakes Heaven and Earth!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a giant red hammer phantom appeared on his body; this was the red ring on his body exerting its power.
A fierce wind howled, Soul Power surged, and the entire Sea God Palace seemed to tremble.
Bo Saixi's beautiful eyes flashed, and she murmured, " Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, huh?"
"Go to hell!"
Tang San, wielding the power-generating Clear Sky Hammer, leaped into the air and attacked Bo Saixi once more.
Sixth Soul Skill: Sea Burial!
Bo Saixi's ethereal voice rang out, followed by a dark blue hole appearing in the air, which enveloped her with an extremely strong attraction.
This Soul Skill is actually her control skill, which can lock down any Soul Master whose Soul Power is lower than hers, but she didn't include Tang San, which is obviously a sign of mercy.
Bang! Boom boom boom...
The two Soul Skill clashed head-on, creating a powerful aftershock.
Tang San's attack appeared to be very powerful, but it did not cause any damage to Bo Saixi, not even the slightest bit, and it didn't even make her take a single step back.
"I refuse to believe I can't defeat you!" Tang San's eyes were bloodshot as he roared and prepared to continue his attack.
Bo Saixi frowned slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in her clear eyes. "You've gone mad again. With talent like yours, how could you possibly receive the Sea God Inheritance?"
" Fourth Soul Skill, Sea of Annihilation!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of blue bubbles rushed towards Tang San, quickly enveloping him. Although he tried to dodge and destroy them, it was to no avail.
whoosh whoosh...
Immediately afterwards, Tang San was controlled by a water bubble. No matter how much he struggled, he could not break free from it, and even the Clear Sky Hammer could no longer be used.
Bo Saixi said expressionlessly, "Your strength and talent are insufficient to accept the Sea God Inheritance. Admit defeat, and I can let you lose with some dignity."
Tang San stared at her with bloodshot eyes, showing no intention of backing down, because he wanted to become stronger!
Bo Saixi frowned slightly, a hint of impatience showing on her cool, pretty face. "Since you insist on this, then I have no choice but to... utterly defeat you!"
A short while later, Tang San emerged from the bubble.
" Seventh Soul Skill, Sea God True Body!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a golden figure appeared on her body. Bo Saixi's Soul Power and Divine Power instantly doubled. This was the real Sea God Phantom!
Tang San's face was blank. He knew he couldn't stop Bo Saixi no matter what, and quickly said, "Wait!"
Bo Saixi frowned slightly and said coldly, "What else do you want to say?"
Tang San, his face pale, pleaded, "High Priest, my parents were both killed by our enemies, and thousands of people in the Clear Sky Sect were slaughtered by them. I only want to receive the Sea God Inheritance to take revenge. Could you... please let me pass this test for the sake of my great-grandfather?"
After he finished speaking, Bo Saixi's expression softened slightly, and she murmured, "I never expected that his sect would undergo such a drastic change. No wonder this little fellow went astray."
