"Many thanks, Lord Sea God."
Seeing Sea God agree, Yun Yuan finally let out a sigh of relief. What he feared most was Sea God being overly enthusiastic and directly forcing him to ascend to godhood at high speed. If that happened, Yun Yuan truly would not know whether to laugh or cry.
At the sa ti, after learning that he at least had a divine inheritance as a fallback, the urgency in Yun Yuan's heart regarding immortality finally disappeared.
Now, he could peacefully pursue his other thods of becoming a god: faith-based godhood, as well as those thods of ascension that he needed to create himself.
After obtaining his ninth soul ring, his talent and comprehension would once again improve, reaching the absolute peak of the soul master stage. At that point, it would officially be ti for him to explore the path to godhood.
After reaching an agreent with Yun Yuan, the Sea God's divine sense used spiritual power at the Divine Origin Realm to form a divine trial chart within Yun Yuan's divine trial mark.
Feeling the abnormal movent from the divine trial mark, Yun Yuan looked toward the Sea God, his eyes filled with curiosity and confusion.
"Lord Sea God, this is…?"
At this mont, within Yun Yuan's spiritual sea, there was a massive chart. At the very top were four golden words:
Sea God Nine Trials!
The chart also recorded the contents and rewards of the divine trials, but the contents and rewards for every trial were blank.
This left Yun Yuan puzzled. What exactly was the aning behind the Sea God's actions?
"Inheritor, you are an unparalleled prodigy unseen throughout eternity. Since you have your own cultivation plans, then this god shall change the way these divine trials are conducted."
"Your spiritual power has already reached the demigod level. Spiritual power at this level has both form and substance."
"From now on, for each Sea God Trial, you may use your spiritual power to fill in the contents and rewards of the trials within the chart in your spiritual sea. If the rewards you write are within this god's acceptable range, this god shall fulfill them for you."
"As for the trial rewards, they include but are not limited to increasing soul ring age, increasing soul bone age, god-bestowed soul rings…"
Toward a peerless prodigy like Yun Yuan, the Sea God was extraordinarily tolerant, even going so far as to violate the rules of divine trials for him.
However, regarding this, the Sea God expressed that breaking the rules was a basic operation. The Sea God was not exactly a law-abiding god anyway.
Besides, these divine trials were ant to pass down his own divine position. As the inheriting god, wasn't it perfectly normal for him to control his own divine trials?
After hearing the Sea God's words, Yun Yuan was completely shocked, along with being filled with gratitude.
"Lord Sea God, if I had known you were this generous, I would've gone to the Heaven Dou Empire long ago to obtain the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud and inherit your divine position."
"Many thanks, Lord Sea God. Within fifty years, I will definitely inherit your Sea God Position. Please rest assured."
Yun Yuan once again expressed himself to the Sea God.
Hearing Yun Yuan's promise, the Sea God nodded in satisfaction, a brilliant smile appearing on his face. At most fifty days in the God Realm, and he would finally be completely free.
"Mm, I'm very gratified that you have such intentions. I also have so guesses regarding the thoughts in your heart. If you truly accomplish what you seek to do…"
"Then this god's reputation in the God Realm will also soar. During these fifty years, just do as you wish without worries. This god can still wait for fifty years."
After the two reached their agreent, Yun Yuan began using his demigod-level spiritual power to inscribe the contents of the first divine trial within his spiritual sea.
Sea God First Trial: Hunt the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King!
The mont Yun Yuan inscribed the contents of the first divine trial, the Sea God had already sensed it.
"The first trial is already hunting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King? He's treating the contents of my eighth trial as his first trial. What exactly am I supposed to say?"
Thinking of this, the Sea God revealed a helpless smile, after which a sharp gleam flashed through his eyes.
"Inheritor, let this god add two more divine trial contents for you. I won't interfere with the trial rewards. You may do as you wish. It doesn't matter when you inscribe them."
As soon as the Sea God's words fell, Yun Yuan's divine trial mark emitted azure light, and lines of text appeared within the Sea God Nine Trials chart inside his spiritual sea.
Sea God Second Trial: Absorb the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's soul ring!
Sea God Third Trial: Absorb the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's soul bone!
Sensing the contents of the second and third divine trials inscribed by the Sea God within his spiritual sea, the corners of Yun Yuan's mouth twitched wildly.
These second and third trials were essentially no different from the first. It seed the Sea God truly wanted him to complete a few divine trials first.
However, Yun Yuan did not object. The trial contents were unimportant. What truly mattered were the trial rewards. As long as he could personally write the trial rewards himself, then his future path toward godhood would beco far easier.
"Inheritor, I have already told you everything that needed to be told. I have stored a strike of Sea God Light within the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. It can restrain the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, and you may use it when hunting him."
"Besides that, this strand of my divine sense shall also remain within the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud. If you encounter danger, you may activate my divine sense, and it will help resolve your crisis."
As soon as his words fell, the Sea God's divine sense phantom disappeared before Yun Yuan, returning to the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
God Realm, Sea God Hall.
After receiving the feedback from his divine sense and learning that the divine trials had been successfully bestowed, the Sea God's main body imdiately burst into loud laughter that echoed throughout the entire Sea God Hall.
"This god's luck is truly incredible, to actually encounter an inheritor of this caliber."
"No, today I must visit the Goddess of Water's divine hall and properly show off a little. Not only must I let her know the peerless talent of my inheritor, but I must also let her know I'm about to leave the God Realm and see what kind of reaction she has."
Not long afterward, the Sea God walked toward the Goddess of Water's divine hall with a swaggering gait, a smug grin plastered all over his face.
Douluo Continent, mountain peak outside Heaven Dou City.
Obtaining the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud this ti and receiving such an enormous opportunity had truly exceeded Yun Yuan's expectations.
First, the Sea God directly bestowed divine trials, aning he no longer needed to worry about the issue of longevity.
Second was the fifty years of preparation ti. The Sea God had not directly forced him into godhood but instead gave him ti to complete his own cultivation plans.
Lastly were the divine trial contents and rewards. Yun Yuan had now completely witnessed the Sea God's generosity and free-spiritedness.
Allowing the inheritor to personally fill in the rewards of divine trials… This was probably the first case since the dawn of creation, wasn't it?
Which other inheritor didn't honestly complete divine trial contents before finally obtaining their rewards?
But Yun Yuan? He directly defined the trial contents himself. The Sea God even handled the second and third trials almost identically to the first trial just so he could complete them faster.
This made Yun Yuan sigh emotionally. The Sea God was truly generous. Whenever there were benefits to give, he genuinely gave them, unlike a certain gloomy first-class god who was stingy beyond belief.
That stingy first-class god was naturally the Rakshasa God whom Bibi Dong inherited in the original work. Among all inheritors, Bibi Dong was uniquely the one tortured by her inheriting god.
Yun Yuan felt that the benefits Bibi Dong received from the Rakshasa God in the original work weren't even enough to compensate for the ntal tornt the Rakshasa God inflicted upon her.
"Senior Sister, don't worry. This ti, I absolutely won't let you inherit the Rakshasa God's divine position again."
After silently sighing to himself, Yun Yuan withdrew his thoughts and headed toward Sea God Island, beginning preparations for the operation to hunt the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
