--- Chapter 246 ---
Yunlong watched Bo Saixi with amusement on his face.
The priestess of Sea God, who never took a step outside Sea God Island, clearly doesn't know anything about modern technology.
"Well, Priestess," Yunlong commented while storing the copied phone back into his pocket. "Let's just say that our Bright Spirit Empire is currently inventing a lot of stuff."
"Since we are probably 20,000 years behind the Sun and Moon continent's technology, the scientist on our side tried their best to catch up with them right now."
Bo Saixi frowned and sighed, "I see..."
"I won't meddle with your personal problem, but please don't go away from Sea God Island for too long because you still have Sea God's Trials to do."
"You too." She added while moving her gaze to Kaguya.
"Then, see you in the next day, Sea God's-."
"I mean, Yunlong."
Bo Saixi disappeared from their sights and landed on the top of Nine Heavens Staircases.
She peeked down and shook her head because she shouldn't meddle with such mortal enjoyment. Her only duty was to protect Sea God Island and assist Sea God's inheritor.
"What do I even think..."
"I don't have such a privilege." She sighed while walking into the Sea God's temple.
Kaguya encircled Yunlong like a curious cat and stared at his pocket intently. "Yunlong, can you take my picture too?" She asked naturally.
Yunlong chuckled and replied, "Sure."
He bought out the copied phone again and began to take Kaguya's pictures.
After a brief photo session, Kaguya peeked at the phone's screen, and her eyes shone slightly.
"This is an amazing tool," Kaguya commented with an approving look on her face. "In my era, someone had to paint my face on a canvas."
"It took an hour at best with the best painter's skill, but the result from this tool is better with a simple click."
Yunlong patted Kaguya's head and answered, "That's one of the wonders of technology."
"We could get a better camera later."
"Like what the priestess said before, we should focus on the trials for now."
Kaguya nodded and replied, "Mm, I wonder what our second trial is?"
"I slowly awakened my former abilities."
Yunlong stared at Kaguya with confusion and noticed a powerful spiritual force on her forehead.
"Ah, your Rinne-Sharingan." He said with a surprised tone.
"Yes, It seems the divine energy awakened a piece of dormant potential within my soul," Kaguya stated while making a ball of pure spiritual force.
"My body also brimmed with vigor, increasing my natural sense to a different height."
"Blue Silver Emperor lineage powered by your essence also increased my strength tremendously."
Kaguya's statement was partially true because her soul and mastery over energy contributed 1/4 to her mutation.
Blue Silver Grass is grass that grows in all places. It's a spirit and is considered a trash spirit by most people. Yet, the most resilient plant.
Despite being so weak by itself, it is the spirit with the most prosperous life energy among plant types.
Ah Yin's physical body was that of 100,000 years old Blue Silver Grass. No, Blue Silver Empress is the correct title for her.
It's a strong vessel with abundant vitality/life energy, more than normal title douluo.
Kaguya, who naturally possessed a powerful soul, was a perfect match with it, causing a great synergy. Not to mention Yunlong's essence increased her potential to the highest limit of a mortal or even beyond that.
"Ah, I suddenly remembered this." Yunlong grasped something inside his inventory.
A beautiful-looking spirit bone with a blueish wing ornament appeared on his hand. It was the spirit bone Yunlong got after killing Tang Hao in their death fight.
This right leg spirit bone can heal any fatal injuries as long as there is a breath of life inside the user's body. It also grants the ability to fly in the sky.
"This should help you." Yunlong handed the spirit bone to Kaguya.
Kaguya touched the spirit bone and muttered, "Wildfire Cannot Destroy the Grass... It Grows Again With the Spring Wind."
"Useless."
"Eh?" Yunlong got caught off guard by her reaction.
"I don't need this spirit bone," Kaguya shook her head. "She uses the same ability to revive herself in the past, which I can replace easily."
"Not to mention the useless flying ability."
"This spirit bone is wasteful for me."
Yunlong wryly smiled and responded, "I can't do anything about that."
Kaguya pushed the spirit bone back to Yunlong and added, "It's yours now, which means you can do anything with it."
Yunlong scratched his cheek a little because this right leg spirit bone was also useless to him.
After all, White Light Grace and Imperfect Immortality could save Yunlong from any mortal injuries. His rich dragon blood also increased his healing speed abnormally.
"I'll keep it, I guess." He slowly put the spirit bone back into his inventory.
"At first, I was thinking of creating armor with spirit bones."
"Of course, it wouldn't be easy and needs a lot of effort."
Kaguya hugged Yunlong suddenly and said, "You can do it."
"I'm sure your ability is more than enough."
Yunlong, who possessed [Blacksmith(Ex)], hasn't tested his actual skill. He was busy with so many other things and couldn't catch a break for a day.
Well, He could use shadow clones.
He performed a few hand signs and created some shadow clones, teleporting them simultaneously to Melissa's lab.
They would help Melissa create the armor.
Yunlong slowly moved his gaze to Sea God's temple and commented, "My job now is finishing the trials."
"I hope they are challenging enough to make me improve myself."
He grasped Kaguya's hand and added, "Let's walk around the Sea God Island."
Kaguya smiled slightly and followed Yunlong silently from behind, enjoying the scenery with him.
After a few hours, they returned to Nine Heaven Staircases and saw every maid gathered there.
"Young master!"
"Young master!"
Bai Xue and Yu Ning'er suddenly bowed in front of Yunlong and lowered their heads to the concrete floor.
"Please forgive us." They said at the same time.
Yunlong frowned and asked, "What's this?"
"We are reflecting on ourselves." Bai Xue answered immediately.
"Yes, we are wrong for fighting each other." Yu Ning'er continued naturally.
Yunlong sighed and commented, "Bai Xue, Yu Ning'er, there is nothing wrong with being competitive with each other."
"However, you two seemed to dislike each other from the beginning."
"I'm curious... What's actually your problem?"
Bai Xue gritted her teeth inside because they didn't really have a solid reason to fight against each other. Yu Ning'er is just annoying, simply like that.
It's also the same for Yu Ning'er. To her, Bai Xue is just nonsense that keeps irritating her.
After staying under the roof for years, only one thing could keep them calm with each other, which was Yunlong. His presence is like a fresh breeze soothing the atmosphere.
"When I see you two help each other later, I'll lift your punishment," Yunlong walked away from them, leaving both girls in awkward silences.
'Help?' Bai Xue stared indifferently at Yu Ning'er.
'Each other?' Yu Ning'er frowned at the apple-head girl.
Zhu Zhuqing observed her fellow maids from the Sea Ghost Holy Pillar and sighed, "They are still at it..."
"All of you sure is interesting," Sea Ghost Douluo commented casually.
"Even with sealed spirit energy, spirit skills, and martial soul, those two somehow were able to climb Nine Heavens Staircase without any problem."
"As if their bodies weren't human anymore."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at her hand and gently saw a black dragon mark on it, making a smile appear on her face.
"We are not human by a common standard." She answered calmly.
"I'm not sure, but at least half of my blood isn't what it originally was."
Sea Ghost Douluo tilted his head and moved his gaze to Zhu Zhuyun. "I don't understand..." He replied silently.
"Neither do I..." Zhu Zhuyun returned with the exact silence.
She agreed immediately to receive Yunlong's blood essence because of her feelings for him. Even though she wasn't sure about the effect, her strength obviously grew stronger and stronger over the days.
A blizzard filled with ice and wind erupted from the Sea Woman Holy Pillar.
BOOM!
Sea Woman Douluo watched Chu Yunxi stand in front of her with a body covered in an ice-like dress. Her voluptuous body glimmered with beautiful green lusters.
Chu Yunxi's Icewind starwheel staff exploded in a menacing radiant. Her spirit rings appeared under the cold mist, revealing a set of bizarre spirit rings combination.
"Wait, wait, wait..."
Sea Woman Douluo watched seven rings appear, and all of them were black spirit rings, which means each of them possessed 10,000 years old.
Chu Yunxi clenched her hand, and an enormous silhouette of a woman similar to her emerged in the air. "Surge." She chanted while bringing herself into a trance state.
"Tempest."
Sea Woman Douluo raised her gaze to the night sky and witnessed unbelievable scenery. The stars have fallen directly to them and swirled inside a violent hail storm.
Xue Nu opened her eyes out of meditation and moved her gaze to Chu Yunxi's direction.
"Not bad." She commented with a smirk.
Another eruption occurred on Sea Dragon Holy Pillar.
Chu Xiaoyu stood extremely still with a sword in her hand, and an enormous avatar of an armored woman appeared above her head.
"Divine Swallow..."
A void slash made of pure sword intent flew to Chu Yunxi's Icewind storm.
CLANK! BOOM!
The sky filled with a rich amount of beautifully-shaped snowflakes.
"Xiaoyu grasped her ideal way of the sword," Yunlong stated while looking at the sky.
"Meanwhile, Yunxi finished her first soul core."
"Soul core?" Kaguya's eyes shone slightly.
Yunlong briefly explained what's soul core to Kaguya and inspired her to make one later.
Kaguya was at spirit rank 69 and the suitable time to create one because Spirit Saint would be a starting point for her.
"What about you, Yunlong?" She asked curiously.
Yunlong smirked a little and showed three revolving suns on his palm.
Tri Thunder Sun, a technique he cultivated in the past, caused three reactor-like energy balls to gather inside his body.
Yunlong's first and unique soul core to himself because Tri-Thunder doesn't use [Yin-Yang Complement Technique], a complementary relationship between two opposite attributes.
He used a specific technique by using his energy as a medium and creating a perfect balance between the three suns. Each energy ball revolved like an orbit around his medium.
When Yunlong used Tri-Thunder Sun, the soul core would explode simultaneously and cause a simple chain reaction of the instant energy burst within his qi pathway, increasing his strength by several folds.
"We have a long day tomorrow," Yunlong casually closed his palm. "I'll inform them to get a rest."
"Do you want to go?" He asked calmly.
Kaguya shook her head and replied, "I want to investigate the Nine Heaven Staircases."
"I have some suspicion."
"Very well." Yunlong nodded in understanding.
--- The Next Day ---
Yunlong, with his companion, gathered on the first step of Nine Heaven Staircases.
The Seven Children of Sea God watched them silently on the side and waited for Bo Saixi to arrive.
Since the priestess would be the one who sent the revelations about the second trials to Yunlong and his companions, they have to wait.
"Let's start." Bo Saixi arrived in front of them.
She waved her staff lightly, and beautiful crimson and golden light flowed through the air, approaching them slowly.
Yunlong's golden trident symbol shone brilliantly, and Sea God's second trial entered his mind, which caused him to chuckle amusingly.
[Chain Quest: Sea God's Nine Trials]
[Third Quest: Breakthrough Ring Blockade]
[1st Objective: Pass through the ring sea blockade of Devil Spirit Great White Shark flock and reach the other Sea God Island's shore without killing any sea spirit beast]
[2nd Objective: All skills would get sealed temporarily until the second trial finished, but physical-effect passive skills excluded]
[3rd Objective: 69% of the Host's spirit energy would get sealed temporarily until the second trial finished]
[4th Objective: Have fun~]
[Time Limit: 3 Months]
[Reward: ???]
Yunlong stared at the system panel and gradually moved his gaze to Bo Saixi, who knew his trial's content.
Bo Saixi's face was priceless because even she thought Yunlong's second trial was too excessive.
"Priestess, what do you think?" He asked playfully.
