Douluo Continent: Changing just one word ruined the entire character's persona.

Chapter 358 Two and a half years east of the river, two and a half years west of the river, never underestimate a poor girl!

Ye Lin immediately began making revisions.

"Nine rings? That's still a bit too high. Let's change it to seven rings."

[The Eighth Trial of the Sea God. Completion conditions: Cultivate your Martial Soul to the seventh ring level and collect all Soul Bones. Time limit: Five years. Only after completing the eighth trial can you return to the Sea God's Temple to undergo the final assessment.]

[The plot has been successfully modified. The conditions for Tang San to complete the ninth trial have been significantly reduced, and his strength after becoming a god has been significantly reduced. He is rewarded with 10% of the Ocean Authority, bringing his current accumulated authority to 90%.]

Upon seeing the content of the eighth assessment, Tang San immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It's much simpler now.

"Don't you think the eighth test is a bit too easy?" Poseidon said calmly.

Tang San nodded.

"It's simple, not difficult. As for soul bones, I already have four, just two more to go: one for the torso and one for the left arm. As for leveling up to level 70, that's even simpler. I already have level 68 soul power, it couldn't be easier."

Poseidon said slowly,

"It's not difficult at all. You come from the Haotian Sect, so finding two soul bones is easy for you."

"However, the ninth assessment is the most difficult for you."

"If the eighth test is easy, then the ninth test will be exponentially more difficult."

"Now I might as well tell you that the prerequisite for your ninth test is to kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King."

"Compared to Little White and the Demon Orca King, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King is much stronger. It can be said that it is the most powerful soul beast in the world today, whether in the ocean or on land."

"Even I am not confident of defeating it. If judged by human strength, it should be a level 99 Title Douluo."

"It even broke through the limit of a 100,000-year-old soul beast life, and was only one step away from transforming into a dragon."

"If it succeeds, then it will become second only to God."

"Transform into a dragon? Can whales also transform into dragons?" Tang San asked curiously.

Poseidon said calmly, "Don't think that the dragon I'm talking about is the same as the dragons you used to know."

"If it successfully transforms into a dragon, it will be a true sea dragon. Do you know how many years of cultivation that requires?"

"For a soul beast, it takes a full million years, during which it must overcome nine tribulations, making it even more difficult than a soul master cultivating to become a god."

"What?" Tang San exclaimed in shock.

"You mean, that deep-sea demon whale has been cultivating for nearly a million years?"

Poseidon shook his head and said, "No, that guy has been cultivating for over 300,000 years."

"But by devouring other sea spirit beasts and by using his own special skills, he has broken through eight tribulations, which is equivalent to nearly a million years of cultivation."

"Aside from his fear of the Sea God, he is the true overlord of the ocean."

Upon hearing Poseidon's description of the Deep Sea Demon Whale, Tang San couldn't help but ask in surprise, "There's such a thing as a million-year-old soul beast?"

Poseidon said, "The so-called million-year soul beasts are actually soul beasts that have become gods."

"It's much more difficult than a Soul Master cultivating to become a god. Even a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast would find it much easier to cultivate into human form."

"Not only was it tedious, but those nine tribulations were almost insurmountable obstacles."

"I don't know how the Deep Sea Demon Whale King managed to survive eight tribulations."

"If it can survive another calamity, it may very well become the first million-year soul beast in history and dominate the soul beast world."

"If there hadn't been a single god on the continent before that, the entire continent would probably have been doomed."

"Only by killing him will you be qualified to enter the Temple of the Sea God and complete the Sea God's legacy."

Tang San made no attempt to hide his wry smile. "Killing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, isn't that equivalent to defeating an opponent of your own level?"

"Besides, he was originally in the ocean..." Poseidon smiled calmly and said, "Soul beasts are not human after all. Moreover, have you forgotten about it?"

As she spoke, Poseidon pointed to the dark, gleaming Trident of Poseidon in front of Tang San.

Finally, Poseidon looked at Ye Lin again.

Ultimately, defeating the Deep Sea Demon Whale King still depends on Ye Lin.

It's practically impossible for Tang San to kill him.

Ye Lin smiled.

It must be said, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King still had to die.

If you don't die, where do you find the time limit for upgrading your soul rings?

At this moment, Tang San understood Poseidon's meaning: to ask for help.

Please ask Ye Lin for help in killing the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

Tang San couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Ye Lin, I'll let you gloat for another five years.

Two and a half years east of the river, two and a half years west of the river, never underestimate a poor young woman!

A hint of kindness appeared in Poseidon's eyes.

"You can rest on the island for a few days and then leave."

"There is one exception, and that is Xiao Wu."

She looked at Xiao Wu.

"You probably already know about your eighth test. You've been promoted to the ninth ring and have gained the approval of the other four guardians."

"If Tang San is the next Sea God, then you are the next High Priest."

Xiao Wu cried out, "Ah!"

"I can't leave."

"We'll have to wait another five years."

Poseidon smiled.

"Their assessments are complete, and I've allowed them to leave. They can also return later."

"But you are different. Your assessment can only be completed on the island. You are the future high priest, and what you have to do is no easier than theirs."

"And perhaps they'll be back in less than five years."

Xiao Wu lowered her head dejectedly, clearly displeased.

"Sister Lin."

Ye Lin also smiled.

"This isn't a bad thing for you either; your improvement in strength will be more astonishing than anyone else's."

"I hope to see a different you then."

Poseidon looked at Tang San again.

"By the way, I'll tell you some things I know about the Trident of Poseidon. Remember them carefully."

"First of all, the Trident of Poseidon can only be held by yourself and cannot be stored in any soul tool. If you try to do so, the soul tool will be destroyed."

"Secondly, you must pay attention to the weight of the Trident of Poseidon. When you hold it, it weighs 108 jin (approximately 54 catties)."

"But when it leaves you, its weight is no longer 108 pounds. Instead..."

At this point, Poseidon paused for a moment before slowly saying, "It is 108,000 jin."

"What?" Tang San exclaimed in surprise, "One hundred and eight hundred jin?"

Poseidon nodded affirmatively and said, "That's right, it weighs 108,000 jin. I don't know what it was forged from."

"But I'm certain that even god-level power would find it difficult to use unless it recognizes it."
