Chapter 259: Shura God's Fury
At this moment, Yang Xiong saw that everyone had exhausted their strength, and he became extremely serious.
He activated his seventh soul ring, and immediately used his seventh soul skill, Shura True Body. A blood-red figure appeared behind him, and the blood light filled the sky, suppressing everyone around him.
From a distance, the massive Sea Dragon and Sea Spear were attacking with full force. Yang Xiong gripped both of them firmly, directly grabbing Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Spear Douluo.
When Yang Xiong activated his Shura True Body, not only did his physical power increase to the extreme, but his attack power, defense, and all aspects were boosted several times. The hundred-thousand-year-level martial soul true body far surpassed that of ordinary martial souls.
The three figures collided in the vast ocean, and the entire seawater vibrated, affecting even the others under Yang Xiong's Killing Field.
Especially under the Killing Field, Feng Xiaotian's full-force Magic Wolf Storm formed a massive whirlwind in the sea, and everyone found themselves trapped within the storm.
Yang Xiong, using his full attention, endured the attacks of Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Spear Douluo with ease.
But these two were fighting desperately. Sea Dragon Douluo merged with the entire sea, and the water turned into a gigantic sea dragon. Especially those claws, which seemed capable of tearing apart anything, were his ninth soul skill: Dragon Soars the Sea.
At the same time, Sea Spear Douluo used his ninth soul skill, concentrating all his energy into the tip of the sea spear, creating terrifying energy that caused the surrounding sea to go silent.
Faced with their full-force attacks, Yang Xiong's eighth soul ring flashed, and all his energy was placed into his fist. With all his might, he punched forward, and the entire sea exploded, as if a blood-red light pierced through the ocean.
This was Yang Xiong's full-force eighth soul skill: Shura God's Fury. This skill allowed Yang Xiong to unleash his power to the extreme, not only for defense but also filled with endless Shura killing energy.
With this strike, the sea erupted like a tidal wave, and the energy in the water was shattered. Whether it was Sea Spear Douluo or Sea Dragon Douluo's full-force attacks, they were like mere mortals facing a god under this Shura God's Fury.
Furthermore, the range of Yang Xiong's attack was vast, enveloping the other Sea God Island Seven Sacred Pillars as well.
Seeing Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Spear Douluo use all their strength to block Yang Xiong's strike, they were unable to stop it as it was the ultimate force.
Not only were their soul skills dissipated in this instant, but the blood-red light surrounded their bodies, as if it were about to shatter them into pieces.
At the critical moment, a figure appeared before Yang Xiong's Shura God's Fury.
It was Poseidon Douluo, Poseisi. She summoned her martial soul and soul rings, and a massive Poseidon figure appeared. She directed her strike at Yang Xiong's Shura God's Fury. The entire sea surface was engulfed in a collision of blood-red and blue light, and everyone around was blasted away.
When the sea calmed again, Poseisi stood alone facing Yang Xiong. The Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island were all lying on the ground, spitting blood, clearly heavily injured.
Poseisi's face darkened. "Yang Xiong, your strike was too heavy. Did you ever consider that this full-force attack could deeply wound or even cripple Sea Dragon and the others? They might even fall."
Yang Xiong's face was calm. "Senior, others may not understand, but you should be able to feel that when I performed my last strike, I had already held back. It shouldn't be life-threatening to Sea Dragon Douluo and the others, but they may need to rest for a few months."
As Yang Xiong said, if he had truly used his full power in Shura God's Fury, Poseisi wouldn't have been able to block it without using her soul skills. This was an eighty-thousand-year-level soul skill, and even an Extreme Douluo couldn't stop it.
Poseisi remained silent for a moment before speaking. "Very well. Let Sea Dragon and the others suffer some injuries. It may do them some good to understand that there are always greater powers. It will be beneficial for them."
"Yang Xiong, congratulations!"
Hearing Poseisi's words, Yang Xiong and his team finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only with Poseisi confirming could they be sure that the sixth Sea God exam was complete.
Indeed, as Poseisi finished speaking, a voice rang in Yang Xiong's mind.
"Yang Xiong, Top Eight Trials, Sixth Trial, led Ning Rongrong, Oscar, Feng Xiaotian, Shui Bing'er, and Huo Wu to challenge the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island and hold on for an hour. Exceeded the task, reward soul power increased by one level, all soul ring years increased by three thousand years."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiong was elated. His soul power changed drastically, and he officially broke through to level 91, reaching Title Douluo level.
After passing the exam, his soul rings turned into five black and three red, and his first and second soul skills underwent a transformation.
Now, both his first soul skill, Xuanming Substitution, and second soul skill, Golden Heart, had evolved from century-level soul skills into thousand-year-level ones. Their power increased significantly, with enhanced space and wood attributes, achieving a true qualitative change.
Especially after reaching Title Douluo, Yang Xiong felt that his soul power had undergone a qualitative transformation, becoming not only more condensed but also deeper.
It was no wonder people said that below Title Douluo, everyone was like ants. Only upon reaching Title Douluo could one truly stand at the peak of soul masters, and even the most ordinary Title Douluo could suppress a region.
Although Yang Xiong could only feel his soul power at level 90, the changes exceeded his expectations. Once he obtained the ninth soul ring, even among Title Douluos, he would be an extremely powerful existence.
Ning Rongrong and the others were also overjoyed. After all, this was the hardest trial, and they had finally passed it.
Oscar, Feng Xiaotian, and Huo Wu had completed all the exam contents. Their soul power was raised by three levels: two from the exam, and one from the Sea God trial. They each improved by three levels of soul power.
At the same time, they received a God-given soul ring and Sea God Island's black-level privileges.
As a result, Feng Xiaotian's soul power reached level 87, making him a high-level Soul Douluo.
Huo Wu also increased her soul power by three levels, reaching level 80, and she could now absorb a God-given soul ring.
Oscar's soul power also reached level 87.
Unfortunately, neither Feng Xiaotian nor Oscar had reached the bottleneck, so they couldn't absorb the God-given soul rings just yet.
However, the God-given soul rings would be placed in their spiritual seas, and they could absorb them when they reached their bottlenecks.
Yang Xiong breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Poseisi, the Sea God, would grant one more God-given soul ring, so Oscar and Feng Xiaotian wouldn't have to go to great lengths to find the ninth soul ring. With their current strength, they would definitely be able to absorb a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, but the problem was, where could they find so many hundred-thousand-year soul beasts?
Ning Rongrong and Shui Bing'er also raised their soul power by one level, with Ning Rongrong reaching level 86 and Shui Bing'er reaching level 77.
The remaining participants in the trial were Yang Xiong, Ning Rongrong, and Shui Bing'er. This would be their last test of the Seven Red-Level Trials.
After Poseisi infused soul power into Sea Dragon Douluo and the others, they slowly regained consciousness, but their injuries wouldn't heal so quickly.
Sea Dragon Douluo, barely holding himself up, knelt on one knee. "Great Offering, we've let you down. We never expected that we wouldn't only fail the trial but also be defeated by Yang Xiong and his group. This is the shame of the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island."
Poseisi shook her head slightly. "It's not your fault. Yang Xiong's strength is beyond our expectations. You've already done your best."
Despite hearing this, Sea Dragon Douluo and the others still looked guilty, as they couldn't believe they had lost to six people. Even though Yang Xiong was strong, they had two Soul Saints and four Soul Douluos on their side.
Poseisi turned to Yang Xiong. "Yang Xiong, Ning Rongrong, Shui Bing'er, now that you've passed six trials, the next one is the crucial seventh trial. You may begin at any time."
"But the seventh trial is of great importance. I hope you will give it your all and not disappoint the Sea God."
The battle against the Seven Offerings of Sea God Island was fraught with danger. Without Ning Rongrong's strong support, Feng Xiaotian and the others might not have lasted so long, especially with Feng Xiaotian consuming the Super Limit Dark Green Sausage, buying the other four a breathing space.
Yang Xiong quickly responded, "Thank you, Senior, for your guidance. We will definitely do our best to complete the trial and will not disappoint the Sea God."
Since everyone had exhausted their soul power, they all returned to Seahorse City to recover. Even Huo Wu wanted to rest until she was in her best condition before absorbing her God-given soul ring.
Yang Xiong was surprised to see the content of the Sea God's seventh trial, which was exactly the same as the God-Level Nine Trials.
"Yang Xiong, Top Eight Trials, Seventh Trial, with the help of Ning Rongrong and Shui Bing'er, take up the Sea God Trident. Time limit: one year."
Yang Xiong felt his mouth twitch when he saw this. Although he had the Hanhai Qiankun Shield, he hadn't gained any affinity with the Sea God during the trial, and he didn't even have a water attribute soul ring. Taking up the Sea God's Trident, infused with divine power, would be extremely difficult.
Moreover, given the Sea God's personality, every trial he gave should have a purpose. Was there something else behind this?
…
After a day of recovery, Huo Wu pushed her physical limits and even consumed various sausages made by Oscar to maximize her body's potential, hoping to reach the limit for absorbing her soul ring.
When the God-given soul ring shattered, endless energy flooded into Huo Wu's body. She appeared in immense pain, blood seeping from her skin.
But Huo Wu's strong will kept her fighting through it, her defiance showing.
Five days later, Huo Wu finally absorbed her eighth soul ring, and the giant Fire Shadow now had a blood-red soul ring.
Huo Wu became the only one, besides Yang Wei, to reach the tenth thousand-year-level eighth soul ring, and she did this without having a top-tier soul bone.
Yang Xiong was pleasantly surprised, confirming his earlier expectations for his martial soul. As long as he continued body refinement to the extreme, absorbing soul rings beyond the limit was completely feasible.
