Just as the Vast Sea Universe Cover enveloped Shui Bing'er, the trace of Seagod's divine sense not only examined Shui Bing'er's body and talent but also her soul.
Because Yang Xiong had previously controlled the Vast Sea Universe Cover, his spiritual power, along with the Seagod's divine sense within the Vast Sea Universe Cover, saw Shui Bing'er's past at that moment, even seeing all of Shui Bing'er's thoughts from before.
Looking at the Seagod, it seemed he wanted to confirm whether his successor could truly carry on his ideals and bring peace to the vast sea.
Under the attention of Yang Xiong and the Seagod's divine sense, it was as if they saw all of Shui Bing'er's past, including the various things she had experienced since childhood, her choices in facing all matters, and how she had diligently trained since childhood, striving to become stronger while also looking out for the entire team.
Based on Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul, the Ice Phoenix should be more suited for an assault-type soul master, but as the captain, Shui Bing'er surprisingly chose the less suitable control-type soul master path.
Despite this, Shui Bing'er still displayed terrifying talent. In the Soul Master Tournament back then, she was the strongest control-type soul master in the Heaven Dou region. Even now, she still cultivates both control and assault types simultaneously and is a leader in both.
From her past, it could be seen that Shui Bing'er was an exceptionally gentle girl, but when facing any problem, she was incredibly resolute and decisive, even possessing a certain spirit of sacrifice.
Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix was also initially imperfect. Just as Ma Hongjun's Fire Phoenix had evil flames, the initial Ice Phoenix was also prone to losing control.
But Shui Bing'er, with her strong willpower, cultivated diligently and reached a high realm. The Ice Crystal Phoenix Sunflower made Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix perfect, and even during Tidal Body Refinement, under the tempering of Seagod's power, the Ice Phoenix became even stronger.
...
When Yang Xiong saw the recent images of Shui Bing'er, he was completely stunned.
However, Yang Xiong didn't have the time to think too much about it now. Clearly, Shui Bing'er had received the Seagod's divine sense's approval. Her aptitude, character, and even her diligence were all perfect.
Yang Xiong didn't dwell on it. He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to sever the connection between the Vast Sea Universe Cover and himself.
Even though Yang Xiong was powerful, the moment the connection was severed, his entire spiritual sea felt as if it had been heavily struck. Fortunately, his head soul bone appeared immediately, and his spiritual power became endless and immortal at that instant.
The danger involved was far beyond what others could imagine. The Seagod's Heart was a true divine artifact, and it was an artifact with a master. Although Yang Xiong's spiritual power had reached the level of a peak Douluo, there was still a certain gap compared to a god. Forcibly raising his spiritual power to the extreme was like fighting a god.
After severing the connection with Yang Xiong, the Vast Sea Universe Cover directly manifested a deep blue figure. This figure was the Seagod whom Yang Xiong had encountered before.
The Seagod seemed to point at Shui Bing'er from a distance. The deep blue light began to merge into Shui Bing'er's mind, and the Vast Sea Universe Cover also transformed into a blue light, flying directly into Shui Bing'er's body.
After an unknown amount of time, Shui Bing'er slowly woke up. She looked as if she had gone through a great battle, or as if her spiritual sea had been heavily struck.
Ning Rongrong on the side quickly asked, "Little Xiongzi, what happened to Sister Bing'er? Did she get the Seagod's inheritance?"
Yang Xiong nodded, "Shui Bing'er has outstanding talent and an extremely resolute character. She has indeed received the Seagod's approval."
"However, her path ahead will likely be very difficult. Truly obtaining the Seagod's inheritance will be extremely challenging, and she will even experience countless life-and-death situations. I hope she can successfully complete the trials."
Shui Bing'er bowed slightly to Yang Xiong, "Thank you, Sect Master, for your help. Shui Bing'er will definitely work hard to become a god and will definitely make the Body Sect flourish."
Yang Xiong smiled, "Sister Bing'er, don't be so serious. We are all teammates, we are all part of the sect. I hope you remember my words and remember the things a Seagod successor truly needs to pay attention to."
Although the others were envious that Shui Bing'er had received the Seagod's Heart's approval, they were also happy for her.
As Yang Xiong expected, after Shui Bing'er received the Seagod's Heart's approval, she had obtained the right to use the Seagod's Heart and could use its four soul skills.
With these four soul skills, Shui Bing'er's combat ability in water would greatly increase, and their subsequent actions would also be more convenient.
Yang Xiong spoke to everyone, "Everyone has just returned from the front lines. Rest for a few days. We will prepare to set off in two days."
Ning Rongrong asked with a bit of confusion, "Are we going back to Sea God Island?"
Yang Xiong nodded, "Not just Sea God Island, we also need to go into the sea. There will be the ninth soul ring I want."
"Of course, it is also crucial for you. This battle will be extremely dangerous, but it will also be very beneficial for you."
Everyone heard this and left on their own. When Shui Bing'er left, she looked at Yang Xiong with a hint of shyness on her face, but this shyness quickly disappeared, replaced by her usual warm and calm expression.
After everyone else left, Yang Xiong held Ning Rongrong and sat together. They had been separated for a while, and during this time, everyone had experienced a lot and had many things they wanted to say to each other.
As for the look Shui Bing'er gave him when she left, although Yang Xiong understood the meaning behind it, he really didn't want to think about it too much. The situation was still uncertain, and he didn't have much time left.
At the same time, a voice sounded in Yang Xiong's mind again.
"Yang Xiong, Asura Nine Trials Fifth Trial, find a new master for the Seagod's Heart. Shui Bing'er has obtained the Seagod's Heart's approval. Trial completed. Reward: 10% Asura affinity, total affinity 60%."
Although Yang Xiong had expected it, he still breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this trial was the most uncontrollable of all the trials.
Ning Rongrong on the side seemed a little unwilling, "Little Xiongzi, why didn't I get the Seagod's inheritance? I felt a little connection with the Vast Sea Universe Cover just now."
Yang Xiong looked at Ning Rongrong in his arms and couldn't help but laugh.
"Rongrong, the path to becoming a god is not that simple. In this process, there are not only difficulties and obstacles, but also the need for the Martial Soul to match the corresponding divine position. Shui Bing'er's ice attribute is of the same origin as the Seagod. Her strength in the sea in the future will definitely be beyond imagination, and she may even surpass the Seagod of the past."
"As for you, becoming a god depends on opportunity. Sooner or later, you will also encounter a divine inheritance that is suitable for you. That will be when you truly have to work hard."
...
God Realm, Asura God Hall.
The Asura God looked at the huge light screen in front of him, which displayed Shui Bing'er.
"Seagod, you should be happy now. This Shui Bing'er is very good in all aspects and should be able to become your perfect divine successor. At that time, your sea will also be ruled by her, and there will be peace on the vast sea."
A hint of a smile appeared in the Seagod's eyes, "Shui Bing'er is indeed good. When she first came to Sea God Island, her strength was indeed a little lacking, and her opportunities were also insufficient. However, with Yang Xiong's help now, passing the trials should not be too difficult."
"It's just a bit of a pity. Shui Bing'er only has the ninth soul ring left. I'm afraid she won't be able to absorb the little golden fish I left behind back then."
The Asura God said helplessly, "Seagod, you're thinking too much. According to the current situation, Yang Xiong should go find your little whale. As the saying goes, when a whale falls, all things are born. This is also beneficial for your Shui Bing'er."
A hint of speechlessness appeared in the Seagod's eyes, "Isn't the one who truly benefits still you? You actually let him set up this sixth trial. Although this Yang Xiong is strong, he may not be able to defeat my little whale."
"You know that on the entire Douluo Continent, my little whale has reached the peak of soul beasts, especially in the sea. Even a peak Douluo probably can't do anything to it."
The Asura God said, "If there isn't a little difficulty, how can it be considered a trial? Besides, with Yang Xiong's current strength, he is already one of the strongest on the Douluo Continent, not to mention he has the Asura Demon Sword in his hand."
"But I am a little curious, how will Yang Xiong deal with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and how will he deal with this family? I hope he doesn't disappoint me."
The Seagod shook his head, "I don't know about that. The Deep Sea Demon Whale clan is the strongest soul beast race in the sea, and also the strongest soul beasts. They improve themselves by devouring sea soul beasts, but they are also extremely lazy and gentle in nature, unlike the Evil Spirit Tiger Whales who are bloodthirsty and murderous."
"Do you think Yang Xiong will cut the weeds and eliminate the roots, or will he leave behind trouble?"
The Asura God's expression was serious, "If Yang Xiong can cut the weeds and eliminate the roots of the Deep Sea Demon Whale clan, I will be very happy, but also very disappointed."
"As you said, the Deep Sea Demon Whale clan is born to devour soul beasts to improve their strength, but they are also gentle in nature and are not evil soul beasts at all. However, their existence will cause destruction to the sea. Perhaps this is the sorrow of the soul beast race."
"You should know that what I care about most is order. My successor must maintain order, but not be too extreme, otherwise it will be too radical and even cause new destruction. Therefore, I hope the new Asura God is a normal person with flesh and blood and emotions, not a monster who only maintains order."
...
At this moment, the content of the Asura God's sixth trial was already displayed in Yang Xiong's mind.
"Yang Xiong, Asura Nine Trials Sixth Trial, obtain the ninth soul ring and torso soul bone, do not kill the innocent indiscriminately, do not leave hidden dangers, the trial time limit is one year, failure will result in obliteration."
When Yang Xiong saw the content of this trial, he was also a little strange. Logically speaking, the Asura God should know that his ninth soul ring's target was the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, and yet he still set up such a trial content. Could it be that the Asura God also knows about the existence of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's wife and child, and even guessed that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's wife would cause harm to the world in the future?
