[You even went so far as to artificially grow the ring to 320,000 years.]
[This concludes the absorption of the Soul Ring.]
[And when you finish.]
[Poseidon's divine sense nearly went blank.]
[His expression was one of disbelief.]
[You're just a Soul Douluo who isn't even a Titled Douluo.]
[How could someone's physique be so terrifying?]
[Looking at the way he's making such a fuss.]
[A look of disdain grows on your face.]
[What's so difficult about that?]
[Eat more of these divine delicacies.]
[Why not just sacrifice a few more 100,000-year-old soul beasts?]
[Then you decisively activated the Evil Fire... no, it should now be the Holy Evil Phoenix Martial Soul.]
[When the two blood-red, 100,000-year-old soul rings came into view of each other.]
[Poseidon did not speak.]
[But you can guess from the twitching corner of his mouth.]
[He's definitely insulting you.]
[And the language used was very foul.]
[But you don't care about it at all.]
[Anyway, this divinely bestowed soul ring was the result of your deliberate manipulation of the opponent by going against the Heavenly Dao.]
[Poseidon realized he had been scammed.]
[What's wrong with hurling a few insults?]
[But criticism aside.]
[A promise made must be kept.]
[He, Poseidon, the mighty god of the sea.]
[He said he's going to be your dad today!]
[Then you cannot break our promises.]
[so--]
[bring it on!]
[Before he was defeated by your 100,000-year-old Soul Ring.]
[He can't afford to stop.]
[Looking at your smiling face.]
[Poseidon's divine sense was completely breached this time.]
[You're a heartless child!]
[This is truly inhuman!]
[But after the defense is broken.]
[Poseidon humbly suggested that you renegotiate.]
[He was too loud before; isn't an apology enough?]
[You don't fall for his tricks.]
[A person's fate is predetermined by heaven... Pshaw!]
[A person's name, a tree's shadow!]
[You, the mighty sea god, must keep your word.]
[A divinely bestowed soul ring, come quickly!]
[A representation of Poseidon's hemp claws.]
[No!]
[There really aren't any left!]
[He was merely a mental clone.]
[A divinely bestowed soul ring, 320,000 years old.]
[His divine power has been completely drained.]
[He really can't come up with any more.]
[You're not buying his act at all.]
[This directly means that since he can't produce it, then forget it.]
[The mighty sea god, how dare he break his promise!]
[If you do as he says, and go to Devil's Island...]
[Who knows what the outcome will be?]
[It's better to try your luck in the Slaughter City.]
[At the very least, if he managed to fight his way out of the Slaughter City.]
[At least you'll get a Slaughter Domain as a guaranteed reward.]
[It's obvious you said that intentionally for Poseidon's ears.]
[As expected, Poseidon became anxious after hearing your words.]
[Slaughter City!!!]
[How the hell could he let you go to that place?]
[If you go over there.]
[Wouldn't that get snatched up by Asura, who's also thinking of retiring and running away?]
[So he quickly changed his tune.]
[He could produce another divinely bestowed soul ring.]
[That's all.]
[But you can't accept just one.]
[After a lot of arguing and debating.]
[Finally, you successfully extracted three more divinely bestowed soul rings from Poseidon's divine will.]
[But you didn't intend to absorb these three.]
[After all, Soul Rings are something that, once absorbed,...]
[There needs to be a transition period before its effects can raise the upper limit of physical strength to a higher level.]
[You've only just absorbed a 320,000-year-old soul ring.]
[You definitely need to let your body adjust properly.]
[Once the adaptation is complete and the upper limit has increased, absorbing the other three will maximize the benefits.]
[After all, this time it's been 320,000 years.]
[Next time, you must start from this point.]
[By then, you won't say it will take millions of years.]
[But aiming for fourth place and striving for fifth is perfectly reasonable, right?]
[Wait until all three Soul Rings have been absorbed.]
[At the very least, the upper limit should be around 600,000 to 700,000 years, right?]
[As for how you obtain a divinely bestowed soul ring without absorbing it?]
[What a joke!]
[Even the humble Poseidon, the god of the sea, has become so insignificant.]
[Let him mold the divinely bestowed Soul Rings into the shape depicting Tang San and others undergoing the divine trial in the original story.]
[Are there any problems with the divinely bestowed soul ring beads distributed by Poseidon?]
[However, although Poseidon granted these three divinely bestowed soul rings...]
[But this guy's gotten smarter too.]
[This indicates that the three divinely bestowed soul rings are about to take effect.]
[You need to obtain Sea God Island first.]
[If you don't go to Sea God Island.]
[Then these three divinely bestowed soul rings will be rendered useless.]
[You didn't even notice his petty tricks.]
[After all, your original intention was to go to Sea God Island to usurp the throne.]
[So, after the PUA tactics employed against Poseidon ended.]
[You, Qian Renxue, and everyone else.]
[Thus began their official journey to the heavens at sea.]
[With Qian Renxue and Ning Fengzhi present.]
[When you arrive in Hanhai City.]
[The large ship was already waiting here.]
[So you didn't delay at all, and on the very day you arrived, you set sail for Sea God Island.]
[And during this time on the road.]
[You remembered the Eight Spider Lances, the external soul bone you had stolen from Tang San.]
[Then you secretly gave it to Dugu Yan.]
[Although Dugu Yan's martial Soul has undergone a transformation under your intervention.]
[It's no longer based on the original poison attribute.]
[But she walked that road for so long.]
[She must have been used to using poison for a long time.]
[Therefore, pairing her with these eight spider Lances is definitely a good match.]
[But you didn't show favoritism.]
[After giving Dugu Yan the Eight Spider Spears.]
[You gave the "Narcissus Jade Skin and Bones" that originally belonged to Zhu Zhuqing to Qian Renxue.]
[Ning Rongrong's strength is still low; she hasn't fully absorbed the effects of the "Qiluo Tulip" medicine.]
[So you didn't rush to give it to her again.]
[On the other hand, it's Liu Erlong and Zhu Zhuqing's side.]
[You gave the "Eight-Petaled Fairy Orchid" that belonged to Oscar in the original work to Liu Erlong.]
[You gave the "Ink Jade Divine Bamboo" to Zhu Zhuqing.]
[The reason why Zhu Zhuqing wasn't given "Narcissus Jade Skin and Bones" is...]
[It's because this exquisite plant doesn't really suit Zhu Zhuqing.]
[In the original story, Tang San hadn't originally prepared this for her.]
[In contrast, the "Ink Jade Divine Bamboo" is an Immortal Herb that can significantly enhance the quality of a martial soul.]
[It would undoubtedly suit her better.]
(TL: idk I feel like a neutral herb (like the one she got in canon) would fit her better than one better suited for plant type martial souls)
[As for Liu Erlong, needless to say.]
[You've already used up the fire-attribute "Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower" and "Blazing Apricot Blossom" .]
[Furthermore, "Narcissus Jade Bone and Skin" and "Ink Jade Divine Bamboo" belong to water and wood respectively, neither of which match her fire attribute.]
