On Poseidon Island, Yu Xiaowei's appearance caused a huge sensation.
Although he was seriously injured and ultimately failed, his terrifying achievement of reaching 890 steps made everyone on Poseidon Island worship him.
Everyone admires the strong.
And Yu Xiaowei was undoubtedly the strongest young man the people of Poseidon Island had ever seen.
Everyone knew one thing.
Their high priest, Poseidon, was the person closest to the Sea God.
But during his first Sea God Trial, he only reached the 60th step.
The second strongest person on Poseidon Island, Sea Dragon, only reached the 30th step on his first try.
Not to mention that most people on Poseidon Island only managed a few steps the first time.
Therefore, under the shock brought by Yu Xiaowei, the young women of Poseidon Island almost broke through the gates of Seahorse City. Judging by their enthusiasm, one by one, they were ready to offer themselves to him.
Yu Xiaowei, still recovering from his injuries, had never seen such a scene before.
Surrounded by the beautiful girls of Poseidon Island, he didn't even have time to cultivate every day. He spent his days running or preparing to run away.
Fortunately, after seeing this situation, Poseidon issued an order.
Except for the people of Seahorse City, no one from the other cities was allowed to enter Seahorse City.
Only then did Yu Xiaowei finally find peace.
But just as he was settling down and before he could catch his breath, Poseidon arrived.
"How did you do it?"
Watching Poseidon sit upright on his chair and stare at him, Yu Xiaowei confidently replied:
"When I passed through the Sea God's light, I felt the kindness of the Sea God."
"Really?"
Poseidon squinted.
The kindness of the Sea God could only be obtained by those who completed the Sea God's trial.
That made sense.
But it was impossible, because the Sea God's kindness never appeared during the trial.
What was going on with this strange land soul master?
After Yu Xiaowei climbed the 890th step, he immediately prayed at the Sea God Temple, hoping for an answer from the Sea God.
But he was disappointed because no matter how much he called, it was like a drop of water in the ocean—he received no answer.
Could this person really be the future Sea God?
Poseidon squinted slightly, his gaze changing as he looked at Yu Xiaowei.
Yu Xiaowei sharply sensed a trace of murderous intent and thought of the final stage of the Sea God trial, which involved sacrificing Poseidon himself. He couldn't help but shiver inwardly.
It seemed Poseidon was already considering killing him.
Just as the two were contemplating each other's thoughts, Poseidon suddenly asked another question.
"On Sea God Mountain, was that your true martial soul? Or a soul skill?"
"A soul skill."
"A very powerful soul skill. Is your martial soul the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex?"
"No, it's called Godzilla."
"Godzilla? No wonder. A powerful martial soul indeed. It seems you truly have the potential to become the future Sea God of our Sea God Island. Keep working hard. As long as you're on Sea God Island, you don't need to worry about food, clothing, housing, or transportation."
After that, Poseidon stood up, nodded slightly at Yu Xiaowei, and left.
But there was one thing he didn't say.
When the mini Red Lotus Godzilla appeared, Poseidon clearly felt the tremor of that martial soul.
He had fought Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.
Qian Daoliu possessed a true god-level martial soul on par with his own.
Tang Chen's Clear Sky Hammer was also a top-tier martial soul comparable to a god-level one.
But even in those two battles, his Sea God martial soul had only felt the desire to fight and never this feeling of oppression.
Poseidon was puzzled.
A god-level martial soul was already the best in the world.
Godzilla? What kind of martial soul was this, that could suppress a god?
In the days that followed, Yu Xiaowei and Chen Xin began training under extreme pressure on Sea God Mountain.
Chen Xin was at level 465, and Yu Xiaowei was at level 721. They trained under the maximum pressure they could endure.
Under this intense pressure, their cultivation speed increased several times over.
Chen Xin's bottleneck loosened, and he was only one step away from breaking through to level 97.
Yu Xiaowei also felt that he was getting closer and closer to a breakthrough.
The sight of the two of them training became a wonder across the entire Sea God Island.
Everyone looked up at their unreachable positions with envy in their eyes.
Unfortunately, after completing the Sea God Trial, the Sea God's Light no longer exerted pressure.
It played no role in cultivation at all. Otherwise, even Sea Dragon Douluo would want to go up and try again.
In the following days, Yu Xiaowei dedicated himself to training, eating, drinking, relieving himself, and sleeping on Sea God Mountain.
He also gradually adapted to the 721 steps that he had struggled with before.
In the second month after arriving on Sea God Island, Yu Xiaowei successfully broke through to level 60.
This speed was simply unimaginable on the mainland.
For an ordinary Soul King, it was considered good to gain one level in half a year.
Even for a top genius like Feng Xiaotian, it took four months to gain a level at the Soul King level.
But Yu Xiaowei skyrocketed from level 57 to level 60 in just two months.
If this cultivation speed were known in the outside world, everyone would be shocked.
Only Chen Xin, who was also on Sea God Mountain, could empathize. Only in such a treasure land of Feng Shui could such extraordinary growth occur.
With Yu Xiaowei's breakthrough, Godzilla's aura exploded once again.
In the sea ring of Sea God Mountain, countless sea soul beasts bowed their heads, as if meeting their king.
A terrifying, massive figure appeared behind Yu Xiaowei and roared silently toward the Sea God Temple at the top of the mountain.
The Sea God's Light on Sea God Mountain, under this roar, actually split into two completely different factions, clashing violently against each other.
Poseidon, who had just appeared before Yu Xiaowei, stood there watching the scene.
He found that he recognized the shadow of that giant beast.
On Yu Xiaowei's forehead, there was the mark of a soul beast.
The change in the Sea God's Light confused him even more.
He felt closely connected to the Sea God's Light in the Sea God Temple. But he also felt closely connected to the part of the Sea God's Light that was fighting against it.
What was going on?
The confrontation between the Sea God's Lights only lasted a moment before calming down.
If Poseidon hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the Sea God's Light, which had existed on Sea God Mountain for tens of thousands of years, would actually have an internal conflict.
Originally, because Yu Xiaowei broke through his bottleneck, Poseidon had come to give him a God-bestowed spirit ring.
But after seeing this scene, he hesitated, unsure whether he should give him the God-bestowed spirit ring.
At this moment, Yu Xiaowei opened his eyes, smiled, and bowed to Poseidon.
"Senior, you're here."
"Yes."
After responding, Poseidon hesitated for a moment, then asked, "What was going on with the Sea God's Light just now?"
Yu Xiaowei suddenly understood. After thinking for a moment, he asked tentatively:
"Senior, do you think it's possible—I mean, just maybe—that there are actually two Sea Gods?"
"One who likes you, and another who likes me?"
Poseidon: "????"
