Despite having only level 90 soul power, she was able to hold her own. This talent was unmatched by anyone, including Poseidon herself, Tang Chen, or Qian Daoliu.
It's true what they say, the new generation surpasses the old!
However, Poseidon also benefited greatly from today's battle.
I never imagined that the water element could be used in this way.
It's no exaggeration to say that this young man has already surpassed her.
"You're too kind, senior. I should be thanking you more."
He honed himself under the pressure from Poseidon and finally broke through at the last minute, successfully reaching the second level of the Mystery of Fire.
Although it was an unexpected surprise, Lin Chuan was still very grateful to the other party.
After all, a breakthrough in one's cultivation level will bring about a qualitative change in the power of heaven and earth that one can manipulate, which will undoubtedly save one from years of arduous cultivation.
Indeed, one should never work in isolation; occasionally engaging with a strong opponent can yield unexpected gains.
The two landed separately outside the Temple of Poseidon.
"Xiao Chuan, are you alright?"
Dugu Yan immediately came forward to greet them.
Lin Chuan smiled and shook his head, took out a brand new set of clothes from his storage soul tool and put them on, then bowed slightly to Poseidon.
"We won't bother you any longer, farewell, senior!"
Poseidon did not try to stop her.
After Lin Chuan nodded to the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo, he left Seagod Mountain with Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
Only after the three figures had completely disappeared did the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo approach.
"High Priest, who really won between you and that person?"
After hesitating for a moment, Hailong Douluo finally couldn't resist asking his question.
Poseidon glanced at the group but didn't hide anything. "I'm evenly matched with him. We only touched the ball briefly. If we were to really fight to the death, it would probably take days and nights."
"How does that high priest compare to Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu back then?"
This time, it was the Sea Maiden Douluo who spoke up to ask the question.
Upon hearing this, a hint of reminiscence appeared in Poseidon's beautiful eyes.
After a moment of contemplation, he sighed again, "Although I hate to admit it, his strength is indeed no weaker than the three of us. In particular, the several domains he has mastered are extremely powerful. If it weren't for my advantageous position and the use of the Sea God Domain to draw on the power of the sea, I might have really lost."
Upon hearing this, all six titled Douluo showed expressions of shock.
Even Poseidon had such a high opinion of him, so it's not so shameful that he was captured when he first landed on the island.
"However, the opponent obviously cannot break through your Sea God Domain, High Priest. In addition, the power of the Sea God Temple has not been used yet. Even if the fight continues, you will definitely win, High Priest!"
Sea Dragon Douluo spoke in a deep voice, his words filled with trust in Poseidon.
Poseidon chuckled and shook his head. "Alright, you can all return to your respective posts. Remember to attend the meeting at the Temple of Poseidon tomorrow."
"Yes, High Priest!"
The six people bowed respectfully at the same time and then left the Temple of the Sea God one after another.
"Will I really be the one to win?" Poseidon looked up at the sky and murmured to herself.
She had already borrowed the power of the Temple of Poseidon, otherwise she would not have been able to use the Trident of Poseidon, yet it was still neutralized.
"This child is truly a prodigy. If he cultivates to level ninety-nine, even if I borrow the power of the Sea God Temple, I'm afraid I won't be a match for him. Perhaps only the Sea God himself can subdue him!"
Thinking of this, Poseidon let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the other party had nothing to do with the Spirit Hall; otherwise, with such a formidable enemy, Seagod Island would have been in real danger.
……
Spirit world.
Poseidon, the god of the sea, witnessed the battle firsthand and was deeply shocked.
"This kid hasn't even become a god yet, but his mastery of elemental power is already this high? It's simply unbelievable!"
Putting aside everything else, in terms of mastering the power of heaven and earth, many gods cannot reach his level.
Even Poseidon himself spent thousands of years comprehending the power of the sea through the belief in unifying the sea, which led to his divine status.
After a long period of time, it took a long, painstaking process to make further progress.
But this little guy in front of me is only a teenager, yet he's already caught up with him in this area.
"What a little monster!"
Poseidon, the god of the sea, spat inwardly, feeling a pang of bitterness in his heart.
The thought that such a promising talent was not his successor made Poseidon want to vomit blood.
"It's such a pity, but it's obvious that the Earth God is more heartbroken. Such an outstanding talent didn't pass the Earth God's Nine Trials, and instead chose another little girl. I wonder if that guy regrets it now."
Thinking of the earth god's regretful and ugly expression, Poseidon, the sea god, couldn't help but reveal a lewd smile.
This made him feel much better.
"and many more!"
Suddenly remembering something, Poseidon's smile vanished.
“My heir has a good relationship with this kid, they’ve even been exchanging glances. If something unexpected happens, we’ll be in big trouble.”
In Poseidon's view, Lin Chuan is destined to become a god in the future, and with the talent he has shown so far, he will definitely grow to the level of a god-king in a very short time.
Adding a first-level god and a god-king makes things quite troublesome.
Of course, the most important thing is that it is rare to encounter a Soul Master who is qualified to inherit his godhood. If he can pass the test smoothly and take over his position, that would be the best thing ever!
Although gods possess endless lifespans, they cannot freely leave the divine realm, nor can they arbitrarily interfere with lower realms. Over time, all the gods are driven to the brink of madness.
Haven't you noticed that even the God-King has started looking for a successor?
"Then let's go easy on him a bit, lest something unexpected happens and this kid takes notice," Poseidon murmured softly.
Of course, this was just his excuse.
Whether Poseidon intended to use this opportunity to break free from the constraints of his divine position and then travel to other planes to roam, only Poseidon himself knew the answer.
……
After finishing his battle with Poseidon, Lin Chuan met with Shui Bing'er and the others one last time.
They shared their test experience in detail, and the next morning the three of them embarked on their journey to leave Poseidon Island and return to the Heaven Dou Empire.
As for the safety of Shui Bing'er and the others, there is no need to worry too much.
After all, Lin Chuan left the Blue Silver Pearl behind, so even if he was injured during the trial, he could recover in a very short time, not to mention that there were also the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluo and Poseidon there.
After yesterday's sparring match, I'm sure Poseidon will take good care of them.
Upon reaching the shore, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sea.
The next moment, a giant Demon Soul Great White Shark appeared on the sea surface, followed by more than ten other Demon Soul Great White Sharks.
With a flash of gray-blue light, the leader of the Demon Soul Great White Sharks transformed into human form and walked onto the beach.
This was the first time Lin Chuan had ever seen the human form of the Demon Soul Great White Shark King.
Her long, grey-blue hair cascaded down her back, reaching almost to the ground. Her grey-blue eyes sparkled, and her slender, graceful figure, combined with her high, straight nose, perfectly embodied the essence of exotic charm.
"I have met several esteemed officials."
The Demon Soul Great White Shark King, Little White, went straight to Lin Chuan's side and bowed respectfully.
“Senior Poseidon should have already told you everything, so please take us away from Poseidon Island.”
Little White smiled and nodded, "Please rest assured, sir, you are honored guests of Seagod Island. Our Demon Soul Great White Shark clan will definitely escort you safely to the land."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the great white sharks in the ocean instantly made way.
Xiao Bai reverted to its original form and gestured for Lin Chuan and the other two to stand on her back.
Lin Chuan didn't stand on ceremony and took Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling to stand on the platform.
As Little White swung its long tail, the waves pushed them away from Poseidon Island, and in no time they were just a black dot.
With the speed of the Great White Shark, the return journey time is naturally greatly shortened.
Furthermore, with Xiao Bai, the Demon Soul Great White Shark King, around, as one of the ocean's major overlords, there's no need to worry about being attacked by other sea spirit beasts.
"Three distinguished guests, where would you like to go?"
As Xiaobai rode the waves, she asked in a crisp voice.
She also caught the commotion at Poseidon Mountain yesterday and went to join in the fun, naturally witnessing the battle between Lin Chuan and Poseidon.
Therefore, Xiaobai was quite nervous when facing a Soul Master who could fight against the strongest person on Seagod Island.
"Xiao Chuan, I'm not going back to Snowfield City. I plan to return to the Earth Temple to continue the trials."
Before Lin Chuan could speak, Dugu Yan spoke first.
"Fine!"
