"Waaah, you jerk, Brother Qi, take this!" Xiao Wu exclaimed, lunging at Qi Ling and snapping her teeth at him. "You dare flick me! I'll bite you!"
"Hey, Xiao Wu, stop messing around. Can you even bite me?" Qi Ling said helplessly, but Xiao Wu definitely wouldn't listen to him.
Helpless, Qi Ling had no choice but to put Xiao Wu aside and said, "Alright, Xiao San, Tianyi, Hu Liena, Oscar, Rongrong, do you still want to fight?"
Tang San asked helplessly, "Brother, do you think we still have a chance of winning?"
"Even if you have no chance of winning, you're not allowed to surrender! Xiao San, come on, don't you still have Hidden Weapon and the Eight Spider Lances you haven't used?" Qi Ling laughed, "Use them all and let me see them."
The battle that followed was still intense, but everyone knew that there was only one way to defeat Qi Ling at this point: to make Qi Ling hold back as much as possible!
The gap between everyone has not narrowed over time; on the contrary, it has been widening. Qi Ling is now on a completely different level from everyone else.
In the end, everyone except Ning Rongrong collapsed to the ground, some unconscious, others gasping for breath. Qi Ling kept her promise and did not hold back until the very end, choosing instead to take everyone down.
"Alright, you all should get some rest," Qi Ling said with a smile. "As for your assessment, don't worry, you've officially passed! You just need to focus on the next test."
Afterwards, Qi Ling left the group and went to the Sea God Hall, where Bo Saixi and the six Holy Lord Guardians were still there.
" Xi Xi, what do you think of my assessment?" Qi Ling asked. " Xiao San and the others have already shown enough progress to satisfy me, so I think they can pass this test."
Bo Saixi said, "You are the examiner for this round. Since you think it's acceptable, then I naturally have nothing to say."
"Is that so? That's good." Qi Ling smiled. "If I'm not mistaken, the next test should be for Xiao San and the others to withstand your attacks for a certain period of time, right? You must go easy on them."
"Really? You're leaving again?" Upon hearing Qi Ling's words, Bo Saixi immediately understood that Qi Ling was leaving again, and couldn't help but feel a slight sense of reluctance.
"Yes, I won't be gone for too long. I'll definitely be back before Xiao San obtains Godhood," Qi Ling said with a smile. "Don't worry, Xiao San will definitely pass the Sea God's Nine Trials."
Qi Ling will naturally return to Dragon God Island for the remaining tests, since he has only passed one test so far, which is far from enough.
When Qi Ling led everyone back to Dragon God Island, the Dragon Maiden had been waiting for a long time. As soon as she saw Qi Ling, she immediately stepped forward and asked, "How was it, Master? Did you gain anything this time?"
"Well, I'd say we've had some gains," Qi Ling said with a smile. "The biggest gain is probably this little guy."
As she spoke, Qi Ling handed Xiao Hei to the Dragon Maiden. But upon seeing Xiao Hei, the Dragon Maiden exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Qilin? Master, where did you find it? How could it possibly appear in the Douluo Continent?"
"I don't know about that, but I also think it shouldn't be there," Qi Ling said speechlessly.
Just like the Life and Death Lotus that I obtained, the existence of the Qilin is also abnormal. The world of the Douluo Continent cannot bear their existence.
Since that's the case, Qi Ling can only explain it as her own good fortune. Xiao Hei, as Auspicious Beast, is quite powerful.
As for the others, after a brief return to Sea God Island, they immediately resumed their cultivation. Qi Ling was very curious about what kind of cultivation they were doing on the Dragon God Continent, but the Dragon Maiden refused to tell him.
"Master, you shouldn't be curious about these things. Think about your own test," the Dragon Maiden said with a smile. "Your second test requires you to reach the second island!"
The second island that the Dragon Maiden mentioned is located above Dragon God Island, or rather, both of them could be called Dragon God Island.
Since the second Dragon God Island is located above, Qi Ling will naturally face even greater pressure. The distance between the two islands is only one thousand meters, but it is a very difficult one thousand meters to cross.
After making thorough preparations, Qi Ling began to break through the second island. After leaving the island and losing the protection of the power, Qi Ling once again felt that astonishing pressure that was almost suffocating.
Fortunately, Qi Ling is no longer the same as before, because he has now absorbed a five-million-year Soul Ring, and his strength has undergone a tremendous change.
More importantly, through her reflections over this period, Qi Ling has undoubtedly gained some understanding of the laws governing this place, as well as the composition of these pressures and how to deal with them.
In this way, Qi Ling would know how to overcome these pressures and how to successfully reach the second island. Qi Ling estimated that by the time he reached the last island, he would be able to understand all the laws of this world.
Upon arriving on the second island, it was no different from the first island, except for a teleportation array and no other buildings.
Although it was only a short distance of one kilometer, Qi Ling was already exhausted. After activating the teleportation array and letting everyone enter, Qi Ling began to build a house to rest.
" Dragon Maiden, tell me, what is the content of this Second Trial? Do you know the specifics?" Qi Ling asked the Dragon Maiden while Creation from Nothing.
"Hmm, I'm not too sure about that. The Dragon God God's tests are quite varied. Some might be very simple, while others are so difficult that I doubt whether it's even possible to complete them."
"Oh, I see. By the way, Dragon Maiden, some of the Sea God's Nine Trials require fighting against the guardians of the Godhood, so Xiao San has to fight Bo Saixi," Qi Ling asked. "Then, do you think there will be times when my family's later trials require fighting you?"
"Haha, Master, you're overthinking it," the Dragon Maiden laughed. "It's not a matter of whether it will happen, it's definitely going to happen! Or you can start preparing now, Master. Do you think you can beat me?"
Qi Ling scrutinized the Dragon Maiden, pondered for a moment, and then said helplessly, "No, it's impossible, I can't win."
Even though Qi Ling can now easily defeat Bo Saixi, and even killed Qian Daoliu, who once drove him to the brink of death, with a single blow, he still doesn't think he has any chance of winning against the Dragon Maiden.
The difference between the two is not strength, but realm! After all, the Dragon Maiden is a true goddess who descended from the Divine Realm!
