Shura’s Visit, Seahorse Douluo
The Deep Sea Demon Whale quickly drew back his tail. The moment it struck the golden light, he had felt as though it were about to be burned away, scaring him so badly that he no longer dared to act recklessly.
The Sea Demon continued onward. During the journey, however, an uninvited guest entered Su Yu’s room. Su Yu was alone inside. Seeing the visitor in crimson martial attire with loose red hair, he smiled. "Shura God?"
"Your power does not belong here. Who are you?" Shura God stared coldly at Su Yu.
"My name is Su Yu," Su Yu replied with a smile.
Seeing that Su Yu had no intention of revealing his origins, Shura God directly summoned the Shura Sword and pointed it at him. "Since you do not belong here, I ask that you leave."
A trace of coldness appeared in Su Yu’s eyes. "Can’t we talk things out nicely? Why do you have to start waving weapons around?"
Shura God snorted. "Hmph. You came to Douluo Continent without making a sound, and our God Realm never even noticed. If I had not happened to be watching Sea God Island this time and seen the Deep Sea Demon Whale suffer at your hands, I’m afraid we would never have discovered you. You are far too great a threat, so I must drive you out!"
Su Yu waved his hand. "I’m not a threat. I’m just an ordinary person who wants to live a laid-back life. I merely have a little power with me. The God Realm doesn’t need to worry too much. I’ll be leaving before long anyway."
"That is not merely a little power. Outsider, I will give you two choices: leave, or die!" Shura God said coldly.
As an enforcer of the God Realm, he naturally had to resolve the matter immediately when an outside powerhouse appeared in Douluo Continent without a trace.
Su Yu sighed. "Sigh, I don’t want to choose either one. What now?"
Shura God’s eyes turned cold. "Then I’ll choose for you!" With that, Shura God slashed at Su Yu with his sword.
Su Yu raised his hand and caught the Shura Sword between two fingers. Speechless, he said, "Brother, you’re not young anymore. Can you stop being so impulsive? You start chopping the moment you show up. What if the other person is stronger than you? Wouldn’t you be finished?"
Shura God looked at Su Yu in utter confusion and shock. His Shura Sword had actually been caught so effortlessly…
"Hey, hey, hey, Shura God, how about we make a deal? The God Realm won’t come looking for trouble with me, and I’ll leave in two or three years. How about it?" Su Yu said, patting Shura God’s face.
Shura God was so furious that his hair stood on end. However, he knew he could not defeat Su Yu and could only yield for now. "This is not something I can decide alone. I need to return to the God Realm and discuss it with the other enforcers."
Su Yu thought for a moment, then released Shura God’s Shura Sword. "Fine. Go discuss it, then."
Shura God nodded and left the Sea Demon.
A few days later.
The Sea Demon finally arrived at Sea God Island. After everyone disembarked, Heidel left. He had already made up his mind never to be a pirate again.
After everyone went ashore, they were stopped by several people. The residents of Sea God Island all wore the same style of clothing, distinguished only by color: white, yellow, purple, black, and red.
There was only one person on Sea God Island who wore red. The islanders looked at the group and said, "You are land Soul Masters? What are you doing on Sea God Island? Leave immediately!"
Dai Mubai called out loudly, "We have long admired Sea God Island’s great reputation and hope to join Sea God Island by passing its trials."
A purple-clad middle-aged man on the other side said gravely, "I’m afraid you do not understand how dangerous Sea God Island’s trials are. They could very well cost you your lives. You should leave while you still can!"
"Please let us undergo the trials!" Dai Mubai and the others shouted.
The others fell silent for a moment before the middle-aged man spoke. "I hope you do not regret this. Follow me."
With that, the middle-aged man led them into a forest. After passing through it, they arrived at another place.
There was a pool of water there. Though it was only a pool, its surface churned like the sea.
The pool was surrounded by trees. At its center stood a triangular platform, upon which rose a strange stone pillar. The pillar was shaped like a pointed cone, with a peculiar sculpture carved at its peak. Countless intricate patterns were engraved across its surface.
A man in black sat beneath the stone pillar.
The middle-aged man looked at the group and said, "Welcome to the Seahorse Holy Pillar. The Seahorse Holy Pillar is one of Sea God Island’s Seven Holy Pillars. The Sea God conveys his divine will through the seven Holy Pillars. Any Holy Pillar can test visiting Soul Masters. Here, you will receive the contents of Lord Sea God’s trial."
After saying that, the middle-aged man gave the Seahorse Holy Master a ninety-degree bow, and his Soul Rings emerged instinctively. Then he looked at the black-clad man and said, "Lord Seahorse, twelve land Soul Masters have come to undergo the trials. Please grant permission."
The black-clad man, Lord Seahorse as the middle-aged man called him, was a Titled Douluo with the title Seahorse. When Seahorse Douluo opened his eyes, Tang San and the others immediately felt an invisible pressure.
"Land Soul Masters who wish to undergo His Majesty Sea God’s trials must cross the Sea in the Sea and reach the Seahorse Holy Pillar before they are qualified to take the trials."
Suddenly, the Seahorse Holy Pillar released a ring of light that restricted movement and flight abilities.
The people from Shrek Academy crossed one after another. In the end, only Dugu Bo, Su Yu, and Su Yiyi remained.
When Seahorse Douluo saw Su Yiyi, he frowned. "Why did you bring a child here?"
Hearing Seahorse Douluo’s words, Su Yiyi smiled and waved. "Uncle, Yi Yi wants to take the trial too."
Seeing Su Yiyi’s smile, Seahorse Douluo’s heart stirred. He had no children and rarely saw any, so when he saw such an adorable Yi Yi, affection suddenly rose in his heart. Dugu Bo looked at Su Yu. "I’ll go over first."
With his hands behind his back, Dugu Bo walked forward. He stepped onto the water’s surface and crossed it step by step. Seahorse Douluo stared at him in shock.
Before long, Dugu Bo reached the other side. Seahorse Douluo cupped his fists and asked, "May I boldly ask about your cultivation?"
Dugu Bo returned the gesture. "This old man reached level one hundred years ago. I did not come to Sea God Island seeking Sea God’s divine position. I merely wished to see whether there are inheritances of other gods here."
Seahorse Douluo took a deep breath. "In that case, you need not undergo the trial."
Seahorse Douluo did not exempt Dugu Bo from the trial because he feared Dugu Bo’s strength. Rather, he knew that with Dugu Bo’s power, Sea God’s assessment would be easily completed, so there was no need to test him.
