Chapter 180 The Inheritance of the Sea God
After Yang Podi cultivated at home for more than a month, Yang Ping'an and the other seven returned to Mount Almo. Judging from their condition, after this battle, both their soul power and strength had improved considerably.
Yang Tianyue is now level 50, which includes the past eight months of cultivation, as well as the absorption of an external soul bone. Actually, Yang Tianyue has been level 50 for over a month, but recently she has been constantly fighting and hasn't had time to absorb soul rings.
Yang Ping'an has reached level 59, and it is estimated that he will reach level 60 in a few months.
Niu Meng reached level 54, his strength increasing by two levels, which wasn't a significant improvement.
Ye Lingling reached an astonishing level 60, making her the first among everyone to reach level 60. She also currently has the highest soul power among everyone except Yang Podi, and is basically one level higher than Yang Ping'an.
Dugu Yan has leveled up to level 57, which is so-so.
As for Yang Yuxuan and Niu Kui, they both reached level 40, though their talent was relatively lacking. However, for a Soul Master under 23 years old, they were already at the level of a Soul Master Academy captain.
After two months of fierce fighting, the seven men were all full of vigor. After this bloody baptism, each of them had a faint but palpable killing intent, clearly indicating that each of them had killed quite a few people in the past two months.
However, before Yang Tianyue and Ye Lingling could go to find the soul ring, Yang Podi first convened a secret family meeting.
Those attending the meeting included Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, Yang Zhentian, Niu Jinfeng, Dugu Bo, Yang Tianyue, Yang Ping'an, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan, who were basically the core members and future leaders of the family.
Inside the secret room, Yang Wudi looked at Yang Podi with a puzzled expression and asked, "Podi, has something important happened recently? Why are we suddenly calling a meeting?"
Yang Podi nodded: "There is indeed a major matter that we all need to confirm, as it concerns the future development of our family."
After saying that, Yang Podi took out the Vast Ocean Universe Cover from his body, and the entire secret room was immediately filled with blue light, making it appear exceptionally vast.
Yang Wudi asked with some surprise, "This wouldn't happen to be the Heavenly Dou Empire's national treasure, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, would it? How did it end up in your hands?"
Yang Podi nodded: "This is the Vast Ocean Universe Cover. I traded it with Prince Xue Qinghe for the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower. This thing is extremely mysterious and is a divine artifact related to the inheritance of the gods."
Niu Gao, standing to the side, looked at Yang Podi with great surprise: "Podi, gods are just a vague legend. Do gods really exist in this world?"
Yang Podi spoke with a serious expression: "Of course there are gods in this world, but they are extremely rare. The founder of the Spirit Hall tens of thousands of years ago was the Angel God, and the founder of Seagod Island was the Sea God. These are the only two gods to have appeared in tens of thousands of years."
"Tang Chen, the former sect master of Haotian Sect, ended up like this because he pursued the goal of becoming a god at level 100."
"The Spirit Hall's Six-Winged Angel Spirit and Poseidon's Sea God Spirit from Seagod Island are the only two god-level spirits to appear on the entire Douluo Continent. It is said that god-level spirits can have a maximum innate spirit power of level 20."
After hearing these words, everyone was shocked.
Finally, Yang Wudi spoke: "Po Di, is this also why you've always wanted to avoid becoming too hostile towards the Spirit Hall?"
Yang Podi nodded: "Qian Daoliu is the only level 99 Limit Douluo on the entire continent. In terms of strength, apart from the already disappeared Tang Chen and Poseidon Douluo Poseidon, no one on the entire Douluo Continent is his match. The Spirit Hall can suppress the entire Soul Master world with just him."
Yang Wudi nodded: "I've also heard of Qian Daoliu. After he was defeated by the old sect master Tang Chen, he stayed in the Spirit Hall and lived in seclusion."
"Now that we've defeated the enemy, what should we do?"
Yang Podi looked at the Vast Ocean Universe Cover in front of him and said, "Everyone, drop a drop of blood onto the Vast Ocean Universe Cover and see if there is any reaction. If there is a reaction, it means that there is hope of obtaining the Sea God's inheritance."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became interested.
Over the next period of time, everyone took turns dripping a drop of blood onto the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, but almost none of them reacted. The only one who reacted was Ye Lingling, but only a blue light appeared, and there were no other abnormalities or signs of her recognizing a master.
Finally, it was Yang Tianyue's turn. After Yang Tianyue dripped a drop of blood onto the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, the entire Vast Ocean Universe Cover immediately shone with a bright blue light, and a huge blue phantom appeared. Then, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover actually attached itself to Yang Tianyue's hand and emitted a great suction force, as if it wanted to merge with Yang Tianyue into one.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Tianyue's soul power disappeared rapidly. Yang Wudi and the others hurriedly poured soul power into Yang Tianyue, but it was like throwing mud into the sea, with no reaction whatsoever.
Finally, amidst everyone's gasps, Yang Tianyue fainted, causing everyone to worry.
At this moment, Yang Podi's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He was shocked and speechless. He never expected that the Sea God would choose his younger sister, Yang Tianyue. He himself was at least a level nine innate soul power and had twin martial souls. Especially after consuming many immortal herbs, his talent was not bad at all. How come he did not receive the Sea God's inheritance?
Niu Jinfeng quickly asked, "Po Di, what's going on? Why has Tian Yue suddenly become like this?"
Yang Podi couldn't help but sigh: "This is good news. Tianyue should have been recognized as the master of the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, and she will be able to inherit the Sea God's legacy in the future."
"However, the inheritance of the Sea God is extremely difficult, requiring multiple tests, and each test can be fatal if the test is not completed. It is still too difficult for Tian Yue at the moment."
At this moment, Yang Podi was also thinking to himself. In the original work, Tang San was able to pass the Nine Trials of the Sea God, which can be said to be due to various kinds of luck.
During the first test of the Sea God, they had Oscar and Ning Rongrong providing maximum assistance, and at the last moment, they even received help from Xiao Wu. It can be said that with Tang San's abilities, they simply could not pass the first test of the Sea God.
His younger sister, on the other hand, seemed to be much weaker. Although she was already level 50, it should be noted that when Tang San underwent the Sea God's trial, he was already level 66, and he also had the 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone sacrificed by Xiao Wu, making him incredibly powerful.
In addition, Tang San had undergone ice and fire tempering, making his physical attributes far superior to Tian Yue's. In particular, Tang San's Killing God Domain played a significant role in the assessment.
Comparing various aspects, if Tianyue were to undergo the Nine Trials of the Sea God now, it would probably be no different from sending her to her death.
Had they known this would happen, they would have let Tianyue accept the sacrifice of the Blue Silver Emperor. Perhaps with a 100,000-year-old soul ring and soul bone, there would have been a glimmer of hope. But the Blue Silver Emperor's soul ring is simply incompatible with Tianyue's Soul-Breaking Spear; it's a complete waste.
Furthermore, although Tianyue's head soul bone was also of the highest quality, its age was too low for a god. I should have known better than to let her absorb it. Unfortunately, there was no way to replace the head soul bone.
Furthermore, Tang San will also go to Seagod Island in four years. When the Seagod compares them, who knows what he'll think? In terms of talent, Tian Yue might not be bad, but Tian Yue's innate full soul power is still somewhat inferior to Tang San's innate full soul power plus twin martial souls. Besides, there's that old bastard Poseidon; he wouldn't have sacrificed himself if it weren't for Tang Chen.
……
Seeing Yang Podi's face growing increasingly dark, everyone realized the seriousness of the situation and fell silent.
Half an hour passed quickly, and Tianyue slowly woke up. Niu Jinfeng quickly held Tianyue, seemingly afraid that something might happen to her youngest daughter.
However, Tianyue was quite excited: "Mom, I have good news for you. Just now, a blue figure entered my mind and told me to go to Seagod Island within a year to undergo the test, saying that I will receive the Seagod's inheritance."
"As long as I pass the inheritance test, I will be the new Sea God, Mom! Aren't I amazing!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Podi immediately spat out the tea he had just drunk, spitting it all over Niu Meng's face, which drew strange expressions from those around him.
Yang Podi mentally scoffed: What's that old Sea God up to? Does he really want to kill his own sister? Tang San didn't even have a time limit, so why is Tian Yue limiting it to within a year?
Tian Yue walked over, her face full of pride: "Brother, aren't I amazing? From now on, I will be the successor of the Sea God."
Yang Podi couldn't help but smile wryly, "Impressive, my sister is really amazing. I'll be relying on you to protect me in the future."
"Tian Yue, did the Sea God say what the consequences would be if we didn't accept the inheritance?"
Tian Yue said with a slightly serious expression, "The Sea God said that the Vast Ocean Universe Cover has now recognized me as its master and will be connected to my soul from now on. If I don't go, it will destroy my soul."
Upon hearing this, Yang Podi felt dizzy. That old sea god actually came up with such a restriction; he was simply determined to kill my sister.
Finally, amidst everyone's exclamations of admiration, everyone left the secret chamber, while Yang Tianyue excitedly returned to her room with the Vast Ocean Universe Cover. However, it wasn't a good time to discourage Yang Tianyue too much, and Yang Podi couldn't very well mention the difficulty of the Nine Trials of the Sea God.
After returning to his room, Yang Podi pondered the matter and realized he had to find a way to improve Yang Tianyue's strength as soon as possible. He couldn't possibly go to Seagod Island to his death without any preparation.
In the realm of gods, at the Sea God's Temple, the Sea God and the Asura God were sitting together. The Asura God's face seemed somewhat dark: "Sea God, what on earth are you up to? You actually want to pass on your skills to a child who's not even fifteen years old. Even if this child has good talent, he can't possibly pass your Nine Trials of the Sea God. You're not planning to show favoritism, are you?"
Poseidon shook his head: "How could I possibly show favoritism? I'm still considering whether to increase the difficulty of the Poseidon assessment."
"Sea God, what exactly do you mean by increasing the difficulty of the test? This will make it even harder for this little girl to pass. Do you even want to pass on your divine position?"
The Sea God smiled and said, "This little girl might not be able to pass, but doesn't she have an older brother? His older brother will definitely find a way to help her pass the Sea God's Nine Trials."
Asura God: ...
