Ye Yu's evasion response was incredibly fast. Even though the speed of the Demon Soul Great White Shark far surpassed Ye Yu's, it couldn't touch him for a short period, as Ye Yu cleverly dodged each attack.
Now, Ye Yu's Free Will Extreme Intent Skill had grown stronger. Out of Xiao Bai's ten charges, Ye Yu could dodge nine times, and when he couldn't, he wielded his Unbeatable with full force.
After ten minutes, Ye Yu reached the opposite shore and leapt onto land.
Ye Yu had completed his task. Although it seemed easy, during this short time, he had engaged in over ten thousand exchanges with Xiao Bai in the sea, naturally becoming highly adept at seizing opportunities.
The faces of the Seven Douluo were grim; they had lost again.
They stood motionless, unwilling to accept this reality.
Ye Yu swooped forward and took their precious herbs, leaving them on the verge of tears.
"What do you say? Still willing to gamble?"
The Seven Douluo shook their heads repeatedly, "Never again! We'll never gamble again even if it kills us!"
They were in despair, and Poseisy glared fiercely at the Seven Douluo, silently cursing, "You worthless old men, I'll never bet with you again."
The Seven Douluo were completely hopeless. Even if they thought Ye Yu couldn't do it in the future, they wouldn't gamble again; they were utterly terrified.
At this moment, a golden light enveloped Ye Yu, evidently the reward for the second test.
Ye Yu's reward was different from the others; this time, it wasn't an enhancement in soul power but rather his Eighth Soul Ring.
At level eighty, having stagnated for a year, what he needed most was indeed the Eighth Soul Ring.
Ye Yu sat cross-legged and began to absorb it. Having passed the second test, all his abilities were now available; Ye Yu directly infused all his soul skills, soul bone, and dragon transformation.
After a year of honing, Ye Yu's spiritual power had grown stronger, and half of his upper body was covered in dragon scales. He was only a small part away from a complete dragon transformation.
Absorbing with full power, Ye Yu sought to obtain a Soul Ring of an even higher year count.
Ma Hongjun exclaimed, "Last time, Boss Yu obtained a Two Hundred Forty Thousand-Year Soul Ring, and with Voidification adding sixty thousand years, it was Three Hundred Thousand years. I wonder how many years this Soul Ring will have."
Tang San anticipated, "Brother Yu is absorbing with full force, aiming to obtain one with a higher year count. Starting from the Seventh Soul Ring, each can cause a qualitative change in strength, especially the Eighth and Ninth Soul Rings, which bring about a qualitative change in soul skills."
Oscar looked at the dejected Seven Douluo and laughed, "Seniors? Really not willing to gamble again? Why not bet on how many years our Boss Yu's Soul Ring will be this time."
The seven people quickly waved their hands and took two steps back.
"Well, it seems they've truly been scared off."
As Ye Yu absorbed, Tang San and the others also began.
Currently, the Soul Power Levels of the Seven Monsters are as follows:
Dai Mubai, Level 76; Oscar, Level 72; Ma Hongjun, Level 72; Xiao Wu, Level 72; Ning Rongrong, Level 72; Zhu Zhuqing, Level 73; Tang San, Level 78.
The seven of them combined would not be at a disadvantage even against an ordinary Titled Douluo.
Leaping into the Ring-shaped Sea, Ma Hongjun's body was enveloped in a surge of golden-red light, utilizing his Seventh Soul Skill to transform into a gigantic Seven-headed Fire Phoenix, quickly leading at the forefront with a dazzling tail flame, very beautiful.
Tang San and others followed in a line behind Ma Hongjun, while Ning Rongrong bestowed enhancing soul skills on Ma Hongjun, making the Phoenix Flame even more vigorous.
The scorching Phoenix Flame continuously vaporized the seawater as it traversed, forming a temporary passage.
Tang San and the others grew translucent wings, having consumed the Flying Mushroom Sausages, making it harder for surrounding soul beasts to react. By the time Xiao Bai realized, Tang San and the others were already seventy meters away.
Tang San utilized the Godslaying Assault skill from the Slaying God Domain, giving Ma Hongjun an even more forceful impetus, with terrifying killing intent erupting, causing nearby Sea Soul Beasts to be too frightened to approach.
Xiao Bai's body emitted a dazzling blue light, enveloping the entire Ring-shaped Sea, immediately slowing Ma Hongjun's advance. Nine months of fighting, they realized this was Xiao Bai's Demon Shark Domain, allowing her to manipulate the seawater, amplifying the energy within.
Xiao Bai compressed the seawater towards Ma Hongjun, believing he alone couldn't withstand it, but suddenly, a golden light flashed beside Ma Hongjun, and upon looking, Xiao Bai saw two gigantic Seven-headed Fire Phoenixes.
Clearly, this was Oscar, who had previously prepared Cloned Mirror Image Sausages from Ma Hongjun's blood.
The two resisted together, withstanding the immense pressure and resuming their advance.
Ma Hongjun activated the Phoenix Domain, intensifying the flames, turning the seawater entirely golden-red, as if transforming the area into a magma pool.
The sea continued to vaporize, speeding up their advance.
In the nine months, they had battled Xiao Bai daily and had devised a precise plan.
Xiao Bai unleashed her soul power, making the pressure of the Ring-shaped Sea more immense, solidifying as if it were tangible, immobilizing the other soul beasts in the water.
Simultaneously, Xiao Bai activated her skill, a spiritual attack known as Despair Light Wave, which could immobilize its target, briefly sealing all soul skills.
Simultaneously, Xiao Bai appeared instantly in the center, in front of Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong was the weakest of the seven in terms of individual strength, but her enhancements were formidable. Defeating Ning Rongrong first would make it harder for the others without her boosts.
Though the time spent fighting had deepened their bond, they wouldn't hold back due to their roles.
With the seawater solidified, Tang San and the others didn't stop, as Ma Hongjun's flames stirred the sea.
After Xiao Bai initiated the spiritual attack, Tang San also launched an attack, two purple-gold beams shooting from his eyes, piercing the Despair Light Wave, and striking towards Xiao Bai's forehead.
Xiao Bai was indifferent; although it was her first encounter, she was a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast, clearly perceiving that this light was a spiritual attack. How could it possibly affect her?
Onshore, the Seven Douluo looked puzzled at the King of the Demon Soul Great White Shark performing so diligently.
"Why is it so powerful now, but it wasn't used previously."
"Indeed, was it holding back?"
Now they witnessed Xiao Bai's might, but not earlier. However, it wasn't withholding; it was because Xiao Bai knew that it had no effect on Ye Yu, whose spiritual power surpassed hers.
Xiao Bai initially disregarded the light but suddenly found her senses dulling. She was prideful but not foolish.
While she didn't intend to harm herself by a thousand to injure the enemy by eight hundred, even if sealing Ning Rongrong left her dazed, Tang San would also become dizzy from backlash, causing her domain to disappear temporarily and unable to hinder the Seven Monsters' speed, making it unworthy.
Thus, she had to abandon the Despair Light Wave's restraint on Ning Rongrong. Under her control, the wave surged toward Tang San's Purple Extreme Divine Light.
However, Xiao Bai suddenly felt a thrill of panic as Tang San's lips curved into a smile.
"What's he smiling for?"
Xiao Bai was perplexed, but suddenly, an anxiety sprang forth, losing contact with the Ring-shaped Sea, unable to control it.
Tang San, suffering from the Despair Light Wave, bled from seven orifices and felt his mind go blank. Although more severely wounded, causing Xiao Bai to momentarily lose control of the Ring-shaped Sea made it worthwhile.
The pressure of the seawater greatly reduced, allowing them to advance rapidly again.
At this point, Ye Yu's body collided repeatedly. His skin almost cracked, blood seeping out, astonishing Poseisy and the Seven Douluo as they gazed towards him.
Seahorse Douluo was shocked, "This time, it's even more terrifying than before. What level of a Soul Ring can he endure now?"
