Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is a Simulator

Chapter 173 Poseidon's Shame and Indignation

"How is that possible?"

"You weren't poisoned?"

After waiting a while longer, seeing that Mu Ge showed no signs of poisoning, Sea Ghost Douluo finally couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you!"

"You probably already know what my martial soul is. The martial soul I'm simulating now is the nemesis of all poisonous fog—the Fragrant Silk Immortal-grade Martial Soul!"

Seeing the surprised look on Hai Gui Douluo's face, Mu Ge smiled slightly.

As he spoke, Mu Ge spread out his right hand, and the fragrant and exquisite fairy product appeared from his palm.

Then it becomes clearer that the black poisonous mist surrounding Mu Ge dissipated from his side as if it had encountered its nemesis after he summoned his martial soul.

Even when Mu Ge hasn't summoned his martial soul, the poisonous mist can still approach him, but it can't touch him.

Now that Muge has summoned the Fragrant Silk Immortal Item, the poisonous mist can no longer approach within a ten-meter radius of Muge.

"There's actually such a martial spirit!"

Upon seeing the martial spirit in the Shepherd's Song, Sea Ghost Douluo's pupils immediately contracted slightly.

In this way, his soul skill will be much less powerful against Mu Ge.

All of his soul skills are based on poison.

"hateful!"

"Seventh Soul Skill: True Martial Soul Body!"

"Ninth Soul Skill: Netherworld Azure Sky!"

However, Sea Ghost Douluo was clearly unwilling to admit defeat easily. He immediately summoned his Martial Soul True Form and, just like the Sea Witch before him, unleashed his strongest Ninth Soul Skill.

With a swift movement of his hands, the Sea Ghost Douluo formed a soul skill imbued with terrifying soul power between his palms.

Countless soul energies coalesced into an energy sphere, about the size of a basketball, and blue-black in color.

boom--

Finally, Sea Ghost Douluo raised the Netherworld Star Azure Blade in his hands and slammed it down hard on Mu Ge.

Huh——

The original energy sphere instantly transformed into a blue-black energy beam, which hurtled down towards Mu Ge with lightning speed.

"Senior Sea Demon Douluo, perhaps you shouldn't waste your energy!"

Upon seeing the Sea Ghost Douluo's attack, Mu Ge didn't even flinch, calmly standing still and enduring the Sea Ghost Douluo's strongest blow.

puff--

As soon as the Sea Ghost Douluo's Netherworld Star Azure Vault landed above Mu Ge's head, it disintegrated and dissipated into the air before it even got close to Mu Ge.

Finally, all the attacks vanished without a trace.

Mu Ge watched this scene without any surprise.

No matter how strong Sea Ghost Douluo's ninth soul skill is, it is still a soul skill mainly based on poison. Therefore, when it gets close to Mu Ge's Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Martial Soul, it will be resisted and dissipated.

"impossible……"

Seeing that even his strongest soul skill was useless, Sea Ghost Douluo found it hard to accept.

If Mu Ge were truly strong enough to defeat him, it wouldn't be so hard for him to accept, but this kind of defeat is really hard for him to accept.

There's a frustrating feeling of having the strength but being unable to use it.

"Yay! Brother Mu is amazing!"

Meanwhile, the Sea Witch, who was watching Mu Ge's assessment from afar, cheered and jumped for joy after seeing how easily Mu Ge had neutralized the Sea Ghost Douluo's strongest soul skill.

Seeing this scene, Sea Ghost Douluo felt even more distressed!

"Senior Sea Demon Douluo, your soul skills have no effect on me. Senior, you should just admit defeat!"

Seeing the Sea Ghost Douluo's disbelief, Mu Ge spoke up again to remind him.

If it's possible to pass the challenge without lifting a finger, Mu Ge would naturally prefer to do so, to save himself the effort.

"Damn it, don't think you can make me admit defeat so easily!"

Despite Mu Ge's good intentions, Hai Gui Douluo was unwilling to accept them.

He could accept it if the sea witch wasn't around, but the man in front of him, Mu Ge, was the one who stole away the sea witch he loved, so he couldn't accept it.

Swah——

Immediately, the figure of Sea Ghost Douluo flashed and rushed directly towards Mu Ge.

Since his soul skill has no effect on Mu Ge, then he might as well not use it.

As a titled Douluo, even without using soul skills, he is still very strong when using physical attacks.

laugh--

After closing in on Mu Ge, the Sea Ghost Douluo clenched his right hand into a claw and viciously grabbed at Mu Ge.

"An indestructible body!"

Faced with the attack from the Sea Ghost Douluo, Mu Ge simply snorted, and golden light immediately emanated from his body, instantly transforming him into an indestructible state.

bang——

"what……"

Immediately after the nine Sea Ghost Douluo attacks landed on Mu Ge, he himself let out a scream.

Physical combat was not his forte, and this attack, aimed at Mu Ge's indestructible body, ended up injuring himself instead.

"snort!"

Faced with the attack, Mu Ge had no reason not to fight back, and immediately countered with a Black Tiger Heart Strike.

puff--

Sea Ghost Douluo was not good at physical combat; he was far inferior to Mu Ge and was sent flying in a single move.

While flying backwards in mid-air, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

bang——

Finally, the figure of the Sea Ghost Douluo slammed heavily onto the Sea Ghost Sacred Pillar.

"Shall we continue?"

Mu Ge coldly stared at the disheveled Sea Ghost Douluo. If the other party still didn't know when to admit defeat, then he wouldn't be polite.

"I...I give up..."

Despite his reluctance, the Sea Ghost Douluo admitted defeat in the face of the formidable Mu Ge.

[Passed the second stage of the fifth test of the Nine Trials of Poseidon!]

After Sea Ghost Douluo conceded defeat, Mu Ge quickly received a notification.

"You flatter me!"

Seeing that Sea Ghost Douluo had already admitted defeat, Mu Ge politely clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"You're very strong; I'm definitely no match for you!"

"I hope you'll treat the sea witch better from now on!"

Sea Ghost Douluo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at Mu Ge with a complicated expression as he spoke.

"Don't worry, I will!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ge realized that the man's hostility towards him stemmed from the Sea Witch.

"You'd better watch out, quite a few of the Seven Pillars Guardians are interested in sea witches!"

Sea Ghost Douluo looked at Mu Ge and finally spoke up to remind him.

"That proves everyone has good judgment; they can see Luo Luo's excellence!"

"Thanks for the reminder, I'll continue with the challenge!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ge laughed heartily, then returned to the Sea Witch's side, summoned his flying sword, and together they flew away on the sword once more.

"Brother Mu, you're amazing! You didn't even need to lift a finger, and Sea Ghost Douluo couldn't even scratch you!"

The sea witch, with Mu Ge's arm around her slender waist, clung tightly to him while excitedly recounting his performance.

She knew Mu Ge could definitely defeat Sea Ghost Douluo, but she didn't expect Mu Ge to win so easily.

"Of course! Don't you know who your man is?" Mu Ge laughed heartily, then asked, "Lolo, who are we going to challenge next?"

"Seahorse Douluo is the closest from here, so let's challenge him first!"

Upon hearing Mu Ge's words, the sea witch immediately gave her answer.

"Alright, let's go with Seahorse Douluo!"

Muge changed direction and flew directly towards the location of the Seahorse Pillar.

……

"High Priest, did Lord Muge really defeat Lord Sea Demon Douluo?"

Inside the Sea God's Temple, Poseidon and her secretary watched Mu Ge's battle. After discovering that Mu Ge had defeated Sea Ghost Douluo so easily, Vesna, Poseidon's secretary behind her, couldn't help but question her own existence.

This was the first time she had ever seen the Sea Ghost Douluo defeated so easily.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. His martial soul completely counters Sea Ghost Douluo's!"

"I wonder where he got so many top-tier martial souls from!"

Poseidon spoke softly, looking at Mu Ge's figure. Poseidon was actually quite surprised, as she found that Mu Ge was surprising her more and more.

Just when she thought she had overestimated Muge, Muge always managed to deliver a performance that amazed her.

While Mu Ge's martial soul was impressive enough, she was still very surprised that Mu Ge could simulate so many top-grade martial souls through his own.

Having a simulated martial soul is a talent, something you're born with.

But being able to simulate so many top-grade martial souls is Mu Ge's personal ability!

"No wonder the Sea God chose him as his successor!"

Poseidon has made this remark countless times!

"What kind of surprise will you bring me next?"

Poseidon gazed at the pastoral scene in the picture and murmured with a hint of anticipation.

……

"Senior Seahorse Douluo, please enlighten me!"

"I'm here to take the fifth test!"

Soon, Mu Ge arrived in front of the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, and the Seahorse Douluo, who was sitting cross-legged beneath the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, spoke.

"bring it on!"

"I'll give it my all. Defeat me, and you'll be able to get past me!"

When Seahorse Douluo saw Mu Ge arrive, he stood up and said to Mu Ge.

boom--

He knew Mu Ge's strength, so he immediately summoned his own martial soul after speaking.

"Seventh Soul Skill: True Martial Soul Body!"

"Fifth Soul Skill: Raging Sea Fist!"

boom--

After unleashing his Martial Soul True Form, Seahorse Douluo threw a punch, and a monstrous wave condensed in front of his fist, sweeping towards Mu Ge.

"Killing God Domain - Frozen Purgatory!"

Faced with the probing attack from Seahorse Douluo, Mu Ge's eyes flashed red, and he unleashed the Frost Purgatory.

Click~ Click~

Under Mu Ge's icy purgatory, Seahorse Douluo's attacks began to freeze in mid-air before they could even hit Mu Ge.

bang——

By the time it reached Mu Ge, its power had been greatly reduced. Mu Ge simply waved his hand and swept Seahorse Douluo's fifth soul skill aside.

"How is that possible..."

"This suppressive force has actually reduced my strength by fifty percent..."

Seeing his attack easily annihilated by Mu Ge, and feeling the suppression of the Frozen Purgatory he was under, Seahorse Douluo was utterly shocked.

This was the first time he had encountered a domain that exerted such a powerful suppressive effect on him.

Only then did Seahorse Douluo realize just how strong Mu Ge was.

Putting everything else aside, just considering the field of Pastoral Song, he would hardly be a match for Pastoral Song.

"Ninth Soul Skill - Heavenly Dragon Tornado Annihilation Fist!"

However, Seahorse Douluo was clearly not going to give up so easily. He quickly made the same choice as Sea Ghost Douluo and decisively unleashed his strongest ninth soul skill.

"The Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian - The Zhen Character Technique!"

Faced with the Seahorse Douluo's strongest ninth soul skill, Mu Ge chose to confront it head-on. The domineering Clear Sky Hammer appeared in his hand, and then he used the "Shock" technique from the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes to strike it.

Mu Ge has successfully simulated the Great Sumeru Hammer Profound Technique of the Haotian Sect, including the Ring Explosion Technique. Of course, Mu Ge has not overlooked the Haotian Nine Absolute Techniques either.

In terms of displaying domineering power, using the Haotian Hammer would be more appropriate.

boom--

Mu Ge swung his Clear Sky Hammer, which slammed heavily into Seahorse Douluo's ninth soul skill, and the two clashed fiercely.

bang——

In the end, Mu Ge's attack was stronger, and with a bang, it shattered Seahorse Douluo's ninth soul skill, the Heavenly Dragon Tornado Annihilation Fist.

bump--

After Mu Ge shattered Seahorse Douluo's ninth soul skill, he slammed the Clear Sky Hammer into the ground, looked up at Seahorse Douluo, and slowly asked, "Senior Seahorse Douluo, shall we continue?"

"..."

Faced with Mu Ge's domineering question, Seahorse Douluo's lips twitched slightly.

"I never imagined you could even simulate the Clear Sky Hammer!"

Looking at Mu Ge's youthful face, Seahorse Douluo couldn't help but admire Mu Ge's strength. Seahorse Douluo decisively gave up the fight, saying, "I surrender!"

He had already given it his all, but found that his strength was far inferior to Mu Ge's, so he felt there was no point in continuing.

Losing is losing. It's better to admit defeat gracefully than to wait until you're beaten to a pulp before giving up.

[Passed the third stage of the fifth test of the Nine Trials of Poseidon!]

As a result, the authoritative voice immediately echoed in his mind.

"You flatter me!"

He gave Seahorse Douluo an apologetic smile and then put away his martial soul and domain.

"You won because of your skill; I'm no match for you!"

Seahorse Douluo frankly admitted that he was no match for Mu Ge. Then, he glanced at the Sea Witch outside, turned back to Mu Ge, and said, "Be nicer to that Sea Witch in the future. None of us wanted to lay a hand on her, but you beat us to it!"

As Seahorse Douluo spoke, his expression towards Mu Ge was somewhat unusual.

How could the sea witch, with such a young mindset, bring herself to do it?

"Of course, Lolo is my woman now. If I don't treat her well, who else should I treat well!"

Mu Ge then realized that Seahorse Douluo was also a Holy Pillar Guardian who had feelings for the Sea Witch, and immediately burst into laughter.

Mu Ge didn't think anything of it; on the contrary, he felt he had made a huge profit.

So many of you like this woman, but in the end, didn't I get her?

Are you angry or not?

As for the strange look in Haima Douluo's eyes, Mu Ge simply ignored it.

So what if she's young at heart? It doesn't stop the sea witch from being mature long ago!

Anyway, Mu Ge felt that he was the most qualified to speak on this matter!

After bidding farewell to Seahorse Douluo, Mu Ge continued his journey with the Sea Witch.

This time, the Sea Witch chose the Sea Demon Douluo!

"Brother Mu, Haiwang Douluo's martial soul is the Illusory Serpent, not a sea spirit beast. Brother Mu's Frost Purgatory can no longer exert double the suppression on him!"

"Furthermore, Hai Wang also possesses a domain, and his psychedelic domain is extremely powerful. Its most unique feature is its ability to pull people into the environment he creates; if someone is harmed within his environment, they will suffer the same harm in reality!"

While holding Mu Ge's arm, the Sea Witch introduced him to the Sea Demon Douluo's martial soul and abilities.

They completely betrayed Haiwang Douluo.

"He's skilled at using illusions; he's doomed if he runs into me!"

After hearing the sea witch's words, Mu Ge smiled faintly.

This is yet another pillar guardian that he completely counters.

His discerning eyes can see through all illusions; Haiwang Douluo's illusions are ineffective against him.

In the anime, Haiwang Douluo's illusion was ineffective against Tang San as well.

Tang San himself couldn't accept that Hai Wang Douluo had recreated his most feared scene in the illusion, so he went berserk and almost killed Hai Wang Douluo.

It can only be said that Tang San's mental fortitude was too poor; even knowing it was an illusion, he still fell into a fit of rage.

Tang San's weakness can be said to be present throughout the entire plot. Every time Xiao Wu is injured, Tang San will unleash his power and transform into a demon.

To put it nicely, they value Xiao Wu very much and can't bear to see her suffer even the slightest harm.

To put it bluntly, they completely treated Xiao Wu as their own possession, overprotecting her and not allowing her to grow. Doesn't Xiao Wu need to grow? How can she grow without fighting? Isn't it normal to get injured in battle?

Overprotection each time prevented Xiao Wu from growing up normally.

Furthermore, if they truly valued Xiao Wu that much, they shouldn't have continued to take her to the Spirit Hall to participate in the final competition after discovering her true identity.

Therefore, it was destined that Yu Xiaogang and Tang San would become master and disciple, because they were both selfish.

In order to clear his name, Yu Xiaogang, knowing that Tang San's identity had been exposed and that it was dangerous to participate in the competition at the Spirit Hall, still chose to go.

Tang San, knowing full well that Xiao Wu's true identity was a soul beast in human form, still made her go to the Spirit Hall to participate in the final competition.

Does having the immortal herb to protect her and conceal her aura mean she'll be fine? He himself was only a Soul Master at the time; how could he be sure that those Title Douluos really couldn't see through Xiao Wu's identity?

far away...

Anyway, after learning about Haiwang Douluo's abilities, Muge became very relaxed.

"That's right, Brother Mu's discerning eyes can see through all illusions, making him the perfect nemesis for that Hai Wang guy!"

Upon hearing Mu Ge's words, the Sea Witch remembered Mu Ge's discerning eyes and was immediately delighted.

"That's right, my Fiery Eyes of Truth can see through everything and understand all things!"

Mu Ge laughed triumphantly.

"Mmm, Brother Mu is the best!"

The sea witch nodded in agreement.

But soon, the sea witch seemed to remember something, her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and then she couldn't help but glare at Mu Ge coquettishly: "If you can see through everything, then when we first met, Brother Mu, did you see right through me with your fiery eyes?"

"No wonder I felt uncomfortable back then; it turns out that in Brother Mu's eyes, I really did look like I wasn't wearing any clothes!"

"Brother Mu, you're so mean!"

The sea witch recalled what happened after her first meeting with Mu Ge, and couldn't help but punch Mu Ge's chest with her little fists.

"Cough cough... That wasn't an accident..."

Shepherd grabbed the sea witch's small fist and gave an embarrassed smile.

……

"That bastard!"

Inside the Temple of Poseidon, Poseidon was filled with shame and indignation.
