by Tang Jia San Shao


  In the sound of a giant explosion, Sea Witch Sacred Pillar’s surroundings boiled instantly and all the nearby seawater rose up to several tens of metres tall before landing heavily. Even Sea Witch herself could feel the shock of that absurd force. The blue golden flames of light turned into a halo and spread out, and an eerie scene took place. Wherever the halo reached, the coastside plants were instantly turned blue and gold in color. Next, some plants started growing like crazy, no matter what they were. In a few blinks of an eye, they all grew to three times their original sizes.

  The people reached by the halo, besides Zhu Zhuqing who was under the sacred pillar’s protection, all clearly felt a massive indescribable life force flowing into them and they felt like they were restored to peak condition.

  Even the somewhat depleted Sea Witch, upon being passed by the blue golden halo, also lost the feeling of weakness.

  ‘What…. What is this?’ Everyone had the same question in their minds. And Tang San started showing vivid spirit rings.

  “Look! San Ge’s fifth spirit ring!” Ning Rongrong yelled in surprise.

  Tang San’s eight spirit rings’ colors were originally: yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, red, red, red.

  But right now, his fifth spirit ring, the black one, suddenly showed a strange change. In the surge of the blue golden halo, the fifth spirit ring which had the Blue Silver Emperor Javelin skill started to let out a layer of red light from the original black. The color of red slowly and surely crept along, until the whole spirit ring was covered.

  ……

  “Great king, we should be thankful to you. Because of your appearance, our greater drive for life was aroused. The spirit ring which you now obtain, is the coalescence that I made according to your withstandable limits. In human terms, this spirit ring of yours is roughly equal to what twenty five thousand year spirit beasts can bring. It didn’t come from another world, but from yourself. It will strengthen and evolve according to your body’s withstandable power. Every time you are in the the world of your children, it will change itself according to your body.”

  ……

  A benevolent voice ringed in Tang San’s mind. It was Blue Silver King talking to him when he got the fifth spirit ring.

  Indeed. As Tang San’s body’s withstandable power changed, his fifth spirit ring could already change, but the sixth spirit ring was at a hundred thousand years in level, so the evolving process was suppressed. Unless Tang San’s fifth spirit ring could evolve to the same level as the sixth, then this evolving process could not be finished.

  Tang San might’ve been able to withstand the shock of hundred thousand year spirit rings when absorbing the seventh spirit ring, but in reality, it was a limit breaking absorption, not his body’s true achievement of withstanding. When Tang San absorbed the Evil Spirit Orca King’s spirit ring, he had sufficient withstandability by then and the conditions for its evolution was reached, but the fifth spirit ring which was dormant for many years needed a powerful stimulus.

  This time, he challenged several Seagod Seven Sacred Pillars’ Guardian Douluos. The powerful stimulus and strong emotional waves succeeded in becoming the flammable fuse and set off the prologue to its evolution. Especially when he absorbed Sea Star Douluo’s massive energies and life force, the fifth spirit ring’s Blue Silver Emperor was completely awakened for its evolution, and now the aura in Tang San’s body and Black Sky Inner Power were rejecting each other.

  With the help of Sea Calming Divine Song, Tang San’s fifth spirit ring finally completed this arduous evolving process. Surpassing the limits, and enter the stage of hundred thousand years.

  This was Tang San’s fourth hundred thousand year spirit ring, and also the most unique in everyone’s eyes. The evolution of the spirit ring itself had surpassed everyone’s range of knowledge. This happened when Tang San completed the challenge of the sixth Title Douluo.

  Golden brand printed on Tang San’s body from behind, and the Sea Witch Sacred Pillar test was passed. Sea Witch who climbed up the platform just then had no disgust in her face, and only respect was left. She prayed towards the Seagod Hall in the same posture as the sacred pillar (statue) itself, with eyes closed and her mouth uttering a prayer.

  Blue golden lights slowly faded away, and Tang San looked at his own fifth spirit ring with equal surprise. As the spirit ring evolved, his own element once again made a huge increase. The light he radiated stimulated the rapid growth of coastside plants, and these plants’ life force flowed back to his body little by little. The spirit power he used earlier was restored instantly at this moment.

  Tang San lowered his head to Sea Witch slightly, “Pardon us for asking you to protect Zhu Zhuqing absorbing her bestowed spirit ring. We would like to continue on with the Fifth Trial’s challenges now.”

  Sea Witch nodded slowly, “I await your completion of the Nine Trials, my lord.”

  Upon hearing ‘my lord’, Tang San’s mind had a slightly bizarre feeling, like it seemed as if he could control everything. He took up Xiao Wu, greeted Sea Witch, and returned to the coastside.

  Zhu Zhuqing had Sea Witch’s protection, so absorbing the bestowed spirit ring wasn’t an issue. Next, Tang San had to go to take on his final Title Douluo challenge, Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar. The opponent he had to face was also the only one whose strength was at level 95 out of the seven sacred pillar Guardian Douluos. The strongest of the seven.

  Chapter 247: Sea Dragon Douluo

  The Seagod seven sacred pillars were scattered evenly around Seagod Island, and Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar was close to the middle of the island, relatively close to Seagod Mountain. From this could be seen the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar among the seven sacred pillars.

  Bai Chenxiang descended from the sky, flying above everyone,

  “The Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar is another five hundred meters ahead. Brother San, you all go first, I’ll go back and look in on sister Zhuqing. Once she’s finished absorbing the god bestowed spirit ring, I’ll bring her to find you.”

  Tang San said:

  “Then we’ll trouble you. Fatty, do you want to go with her?”

  Before Ma Hongjun could answer, Bai Chenxiang already shook her head:

  “No, he’s too slow. I’ll go.”

  Finished speaking, in a flash, she was already several hundred meters away, really incomparably fast.

  Ma Hongjun looked somewhat helplessly in the direction Bai Chenxiang escaped, sighing:

  “Bitter fate! How come this girl still seems neither close nor distant.”

  Ning Rongrong smiled:

  “Hasty men don’t get to eat hot tofu, take your time. Xiangxiang is already a lot better to you than before. At least I’ve seen her secretly glancing at you from the side several times. Even if I can’t say she’s full of tender feelings, at least it counts as paying attention. It’s always a lot better than before when she didn’t even want to look at you. You were given a chance, you have to grab it.”

  Ma Hongjun exulted:

  “Really? She’s peeping at me?”

  Ning Rongrong burst into giggles:

  “Of course it’s real. Especially after you got your seventh spirit ring and became leaner, she’s been glancing at you thirty percent more. It has to be said that, even if the thin you isn’t very handsome, at least you count as a normal person. One would estimate it’s reluctant feelings. Acceptable.”

  Ma Hongjun snapped:

  “Why? Wasn’t I a normal person before? What’s bad a about a bit of fat. At least I’m not like certain people, going around shouting, erect, erect, gold fly!”

  For the last bit, he imitated certain people to make a few vulgar gestures.

  “Yelling your face. Damn Fatty, did I provoke you?”

  Oscar snapped.

  “Fine, as you wish. Later once Xiangxiang returns, I’ll properly go with her to investigate some matters related to unsuppressable evil fire.”

  “Eh. Second brother, my mistake.”

  Ma Hon
gjun knew he’d forgotten himself, and his noisy laughter instantly disappeared, changing with astonishing speed, looking pleadingly at Oscar, with a lot of ‘what you want I’ll do for you’ meaning.

  “Go, go. Don’t look at me with that kind of nauseating expression. Ge isn’t interested in you.”

  Oscar kicked at Ma Hongjun. Just when Ma Hongjun wanted to say something else, he restrained his voice, his expression also returning to normal. Because, they had now already left the forest, again seeing that familiar scene of a sea within the sea.

  Compared to the six previous sea within the seas they’d seen, this one was clearly a bit larger, the water so crystal clear you could see the bottom, so clear you could see the tiny organisms living in the water. There didn’t seem to be any sea spirit beasts here. The entire sea within the sea was circular, all kinds of plants around the shores, blue sky, trees, jade sea, interwove into a touching scene.

  The sacred pillar platform in the middle seemed to echo the sea within the sea, equally round, about thirty meters across. The sacred pillar in the middle rose twenty meters high, just as blue as the surrounding seawater, and with fine carved scales all over, a giant blue dragon was coiled around the pillar.

  Just on the edge of that platform stood a barechested man. He was more than two meters tall, right now with his back to the Shrek Seven Devils, his whole body was like an inverted triangle, with wide shoulders and muscles like sculpted granite. A head of deep blue semi long hair just reached his shoulders, curling naturally. And on his solid back was a blue pattern of a giant dragon. Looking at its shape, it was almost identical to the sea the one coiled on the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar. From behind there was no way to tell his age. Without a doubt, he was the guardian here, the strongest of the Seagod seven sacred pillar protector Douluo, Sea Dragon Douluo.

  Right now, even though that golden light released into the sky was still there, the only one supporting it was this Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar. The light streamed from the top of the round pillar, the golden light reflecting in the water, gleaming and crystalline.

  Just at this moment, Seadragon Douluo standing on the edge of thesacred pillar platform slowly turned around. Appearing in front of everyone was a simple face, seemingly only thirty something years old, with solid pectoral and abdominal muscles, glinting with a healthy bronze light like armor, and the equally deep blue eyes weren’t looking at Tang San and the others, but at the sky.

  “You came even faster than i imagined. Less than a third of the time has passed.”

  From the start of the challenge until now it had already been more than eighteen hours, from earliest until now at night, when only that golden ball in the sky still shone, without giving the slightest feeling of darkness. That light condensed from the seven pillars was like a second sun above Seagod Island.

  Tang San didn’tfly over immediately, but rather brought Xiao Wu over to sit by the shore, closing his eyes and sitting there breathing quietly. Even though he only looked with his eyes, he knew that this battle would be extremely difficult for him. Even though the spirit power and mental strength he had consumed had been practically recovered in the last battle, he still had to maintain his peak condition to confront this ninety fifth rank Title Douluo. He still deeply remembered what Sword Douluo told him. After spirit power reached ninety fifth rank, it entered another level. Ninety fifth rank Title Douluo was a qualitative leap compared to ninety fourth rank Title Douluo.

  Sea Dragon Douluo looked towards Tang San sitting crosslegged, still without any expression on his simple face. He also sat on that sacred pillar platform, closing his eyes. As he sat, Dai Mubai, Oscar and the others immediately discovered that this Sea Dragon Douluo seemed to fade away, his aura disappearing, as if his whole being had melted into a unified whole with his surroundings, without any separation. As if he himself was that blue dragon coiled around the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar.

  Besides Tang San, the others had already finished their fifth trials, so everyone also sat down, quietly waiting for this battle to approach. They had of course also seen that this Sea Dragon Douluo was formidable, but they still had even more faith in Tang San’s strength. Especially when Tang San’s fifth spirit ring had just evolved to the hundred thousand year level. Even though there was a gap in spirit power, four hundred thousand year spirit rings was already enough to make up for this deficiency. The outcome could only truly be determined through battle.

  Tang San sat for a full two hours. Facing the last battle, he didn’t have any impatience. Once he again opened his eyes, that pair of eyes even deeper blue than Sea Dragon Douluo’s, were filled with a dreadful calm.

  Pulling over Xiao Wu sitting next to him, Tang San drew her into his arms, softly kissing her forehead. Holding her hand and leaping up, the Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone flying ability activated, soaring towards the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar platform.

  As if pulled by the aura, when Tang San opened his eyes, Sea Dragon Douluo equally opened his eyes, floating up and gazing at Tang San’s pair floating over. He held no contempt for Tang San, nor did he consider rushing to attack, letting Tang San smoothly bring Xiao Wu to land on the platform.

  “Welcome to the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar.”

  Sea Dragon Douluo’s calm voice echoed. His voice was simple and deep, giving a humming expression, sounding less like he was talking himself, and more like it was a resonance from the sea within the sea.

  “Hello, Sea Dragon Douluo.”

  Tang San held Xiao Wu and bowed slightly to Sea Dragon Douluo.

  Sea Dragon Douluo leaned over slightly, not accepting his bow.

  “I’m not qualified to accept your courtesy. Tang San, do you know why your fifth trial is to challenge all the seven Title Douluo?”

  Tang San frowned,

  “I don’t. This is the lord Seagod’s decree.”

  Sea Dragon Douluo noded,

  “That’s right, this is indeed the lord Seagod’s decree. But at the same time, it is also the process for you to gain the approval of the seven sacred pillar protector Douluo. I’m already aware of how you passed the previous tests. Even though you did very well, it’s still wrong.”

  Light shifted in Tang San’s eyes, sighing softly,

  “Yes, my mistake. I shouldn’t have drawn support from my comrades. Perhaps it was all the Title Douluo seniors’ reputation that influenced my confidence.”

  Sea Dragon Douluo said calmly:

  “Among the six you faced before, you only gained Seahorse, Sea’s Illusion, Sea Star, and Sea Witch’s recognition. Not in the battles with Sealance and Sea Ghost. This is not the meaning of the fifth trial. However, this won’t influence your present fifth trial. I am the final examiner of the fifth trial. Let us begin now.”

  “Senior, please.”

  The light in Tang San’s eyes instantly sharpened, Sea Dragon Douluo’s words didn’t influence his mind. After two hours of recuperation, by now he was already fully prepared. Completely in peak condition. Regardless of whether he had obtained the approval of all the Sea Douluo, at least he would finish the Seagod fifth trial before anything else, at worst the final reward would be a bit weaker.

  Golden blue light instantly spread from his body, followed by two yellow, one purple, one black, four red, eight spirit rings appearing, strand after strand of Blue Silver Emperor drifting around him, one among them twisting around Xiao Wu’s waist. At the same time, with a red flash of light, Xiao Wu’s soul entered her body. This was already the final battle, there was no need to keep saving Xiao Wu’s time.

  Xiao Wu and Tang San had cooperated for a long time. With a flash, she already hid behind Tang San.

  Seeing Tang San release his spirit, Sea Dragon Douluo also began to change. The sea dragon tattoo on his back brightened, intense blue light instantly enveloping his body, berserk energy waves rushing out. In that instant, giant waves rolled out in the seawater from the sacred pillar platform.

  On his bare upper body, the skin was swiftly covered with b
lue scales. The scales were round, each one with a bulging protrusion. Very soon, all of Sea Dragon Douluo’s bare skin was covered with scales. His originally imposing body also expanded a bit, a deep blue crystal appearing like an eye on his chest. Vaguely, an immense blue dragon image appeared behind him.

  Without a doubt, this Sea Dragon Douluo was definitely a power attack type battle spirit master. Among the Shrek Seven Devils, Dai Mubai’s strength was the most similar.

  Ring after ring of deep blue ripples spread out from Sea Dragon Douluo’s body, nine rings rose from underfoot to cover him, two yellow, two purple, five black, seemingly no difference from the other Sea Douluo. It was the most ideal spirit ring configuration for a Title Douluo, disregarding hundred thousand year spirit rings.

  Sea Dragon Douluo’s arms were especially thick and solid, sharp dragon claws condensing like five short spears. Judging by the spirit’s energy fluctuations, the Sea Dragon Spirit that Sea Dragon Douluo possessed absolutely wasn’t of lower quality than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan’s Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit. Just that his capabilities were water, rather than lightning.

  Blue light blossomed from under Tang San. Even though he didn’t use his seventh spirit ability Blue Silver Avatar at once, he still directly started the Blue Silver Domain. Confronting a ninety fifth ranked power attack type Title Douluo with a first rate spirit, a frontal confrontation was clearly unwise. But Boundless Nature and Eight Spider Lances’ combined Devouring Golden Threads were clearly the best method to confront Sea Dragon Douluo.

  The Blue Silver Domain’s range was enormous, especially after Tang San’s fifth spirit ring evolved. He clearly sensed that his Blue Silver Emperor had also subsequently evolved. With a thought, the Blue Silver Domain had already covered the entire sea.

  Sea Dragon Douluo wasn’t alarmed because Tang San released the domain, nor did he launch any attack. He still stood there silently, ignoring the layer after layer of tree images appearing around him,
