After a short rest, Qi Ling and Hai Wei'er set off again for Sea God Island. This time, Hai Wei'er obtained the Sea God's Heart, greatly improving her strength. She was even able to discuss with Bo Saixi about inheriting her position as Great Enshrined after returning.
Sea God Island has a long history, so it's impossible for it to have only one Great Enshrined. Each Great Enshrined has to go through many considerations when choosing the next successor before finally deciding on the candidate.
Just like Xiao Wu and the others, they all reached the Top Level Assessment when they participated in the test, which means that they were qualified to inherit. However, they did not continue to participate in the test, so naturally, it does not count.
As for Hai Wei'er, because she was born into the Mermaid Tribe, she did not participate in the assessment at the time. Instead, she was selected as a special candidate and directly appointed Sacred Pillar Guardian of Sea God Island.
After returning this time, if Hai Wei'er wants to inherit the position of Great Enshrined, she only needs to take one assessment. As long as she can reach the Red Level Assessment, she will pass.
For Hai Wei'er, who now possesses the Heart of the Heart of the Ocean, this shouldn't be difficult. Qi Ling even believes that Hai Wei'er might be able to pass the test directly, because this artifact has quite a background; it's a treasure that even the Sea God hasn't obtained.
"Will you ask Xi Xi for her request after you get back?" Qi Ling asked.
"Of course not! Lord Bo Saixi is the most suitable Great Enshrined of Sea God Island, and I have never changed my mind!" Hai Wei'er said. "Therefore, the reason I am doing this is simply to first obtain the qualification to inherit the position of Great Enshrined, so that I can have no worries if Lord Bo Saixi decides not to continue serving as Great Enshrined."
Qi Ling pondered, "Really? It's hard to imagine what reason someone like Xi Xi would have to give up the position of Great Enshrined?"
"It's not that Lady Bo Saixi wanted to give up, but rather that certain circumstances made it impossible for her to continue shouldering this responsibility," Hai Wei'er said Youyou.
Upon hearing Hai Wei'er's words, Qi Ling couldn't help but ask, "Oh? Wei'er, do you know anything? Why did Xi Xi have to give up her position Great Enshrined?"
"Hehe, you're so smart, try to guess it yourself!" Hai Wei'er laughed.
Qi Ling pondered for a moment and said, "Is it because of Xi Xi's Sea God Martial Soul?"
Hai Wei'er exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my, Qi Ling, how did you know? You guessed it right away! That's right, it's because of Lady Bo Saixi's Martial Soul!"
"Lord Bo Saixi's Martial Soul was originally prepared for the succession of the Sea God's throne, since two Sea God cannot exist in this world at the same time! Therefore, when the successor of the Sea God appears, after he passes the Sea God Trial, Lord Bo Saixi will sacrifice his own Martial Soul to ensure Sea God successor's divine Godhood!"
"Sacrifice her Martial Soul?! That... that means that Xi Xi...?" Qi Ling was immediately shocked. Soul Master who loses their Martial Soul has only one fate: death! Doesn't this mean that in order to achieve Xiao San's Godhood, Xi Xi needs to sacrifice herself?
This is naturally not Tang San's fault; it's all the Sea God's fault. Qi Ling couldn't help but say viciously, "Damn it, what kind of god is this! He seems even worse than that Blood Devil! At least that guy didn't attack his own people!"
Hai Wei'er said, "This is the cruelty of Godhood succession, Qi Ling. You just haven't experienced it yet, so you don't know what you're going to go through."
Qi Ling frowned and said, "I don't believe it! If that's the case, what way can we save Xi Xi? If we really have to sacrifice Xi Xi, then I can only apologize to Xiao San; he can't inherit this Godhood."
"Oh? Qi Ling, really? To save Lord Bo Saixi, you'd make Tang San give up his Godhood?" Hai Wei'er asked in surprise. "But isn't Tang San your younger brother?"
"It's just a Godhood, I'll find him another one!" Qi Ling said nonchalantly. "But if Xiao San knew that his Godhood was obtained at the cost of a life, he would definitely feel uneasy. I can't let him regret it."
"You're really domineering, aren't you? That's definitely your style," Hai Wei'er laughed. "But don't worry, the conditions have already been met: your brother won't have to give up his Godhood, Lord Bo Saixi won't lose his life, and no one will be hurt."
"Oh? So you have a way to keep Xi Xi from losing her life?" Qi Ling asked in surprise.
"Of course! Otherwise, why do you think I would go to such lengths to obtain the Heart of the Ocean!" Hai Wei'er said proudly. "It's all so that I can save Lord Bo Saixi right now!"
" The Sea God's sacrifice requires Lord Bo Saixi to sacrifice his own Martial Soul, and even more so, a large amount of power, enough to fill the power vacancy in the Godhood. That's why it requires the sacrifice of Limit Douluo," Hai Wei'er said.
"But the power contained within the Heart of the Ocean far exceeds our imagination. Not only can it replenish this power, but more importantly, it will also replenish the power that Lord Bo Saixi lost! The ocean is truly magnificent."
Qi Ling asked anxiously, "Then, what about Xi Xi's Martial Soul? Can it still be preserved?"
"Of course not, because the Sea God Inheritance requires the Sea God himself, and Lord Bo Saixi cannot retain his own Martial Soul," Hai Wei'er said. "However, this power will remain within Lord Bo Saixi's body, and if given the opportunity in the future, it will allow him to quickly recover his strength."
"I see. Losing your Martial Soul and becoming an ordinary person means that Xi Xi needs to get a new Martial Soul, right?" Qi Ling said. "Don't worry, I'm good at this. Leave it to me."
"Really? Then you must give Lord Bo Saixi an even more powerful Martial Soul!" Hai Wei'er exclaimed excitedly, "Wow, Qi Ling, you're practically omnipotent! You're amazing!"
"Of course, you just realized? The only thing I can't do, you can do for me, right?" Qi Ling said with a smile.
"The only thing you can't do? What is it?" Hai Wei'er asked, puzzled.
Qi Ling then leaned close to Hai Wei'er's ear and said to her, "Have a baby!"
"Ugh! I don't want to have a baby! It hurts so much!" Hai Wei'er said, blushing. "I'm ignoring you! You've become bad now, you just bully me!"
When Qi Ling and Hai Wei'er returned to Sea God Island, Bo Saixi saw them again and exclaimed in surprise to Hai Wei'er, " Wei'er, what happened to you these past few days? Why has your Soul Power reached level 95?"
Upon gaining the Heart of the Heart of the Ocean's recognition, Hai Wei'er had already received immense benefits, instantly raising her Soul Power to level 95, breaking through the limits of Super Douluo, and becoming the person with the highest Soul Power Level on Sea God Island besides Bo Saixi.
Hai Wei'er did not hide anything from Bo Saixi about the Heart of the Ocean, because she knew that Bo Saixi would never covet what belonged to others; in her heart, there was never any selfishness.
As expected, after learning about the Heart of the Ocean that Hai Wei'er possessed, Bo Saixi only offered Hai Wei'er blessings and didn't show much concern for what the Heart of the Ocean actually did.
