Chapter 464: Three Black, Three Red? This spirit ring configuration is a bug!

The infusion of rewards was not instantaneous.

Lin Qingmo stood alone on the edge of the rocky platform, eyes closed, feeling the turbulent changes within his body.

His affinity for the God of Destruction climbed from five percent to ten percent.

The number was small, but it meant his perception of the OriginLaw of Destruction had doubled.

He could more clearly "see" those fragile causes of destruction between all things.

The textures and cracks in the rocks, the gaps between seawater molecules, and even the weak links in the flow of spirit power in the air—the possibility of everything disintegrating was laid bare before his eyes.

Destruction was never just brute force.

It was finding that most precise point of disintegration and then giving it a gentle push.

His understanding of the OriginLaw of "Destruction" had deepened by another layer.

It was not just an increase in power, but a peek into the essence of the World’s operation.

This realization elevated his understanding of his own power to a whole new level.

What truly made his heart race, however, was the intuitive change brought about by the five-thousand-year increase in the age of all his spirit rings.

The six spirit rings resonated within his body simultaneously, like six sleeping stars being injected with new fuel, their light suddenly blazing.

The spirit rings, already powerful enough, each became even more substantial and refined at this moment.

The energy density they contained climbed to a brand new level.

And the external changes were even more astonishing.

Xiao Wu was the first to notice something wrong: "A-Qing’s spirit rings have deepened in color again!"

Lin Qingmo unconsciously released his spirit rings, and everyone present was stunned.

Six spirit rings slowly rose, with distinct colors—Black, Black, Black, Red, Red, Red.

Three Black, Three Red!

"Eh?"

Xiao Wu rubbed her eyes and looked again.

She hadn’t seen it wrong.

Zhuqing’s cold eyes also widened slightly: "The first and second spirit rings have turned into... ten-thousand-year spirit ring?!"

Bai Chenxiang almost blurted out: "Is this the same spirit ring age increase as when A-Qing underwent the Lightning Tribulation?"

"But, there was no Lightning Tribulation." Ning Rongrong felt it was somewhat unreasonable, yet she couldn’t think of any logical explanation.

A spirit ring configuration of three black and three red—searching through all the historical records of the continent, one probably wouldn’t find a second example.

"No need to be surprised."

Liu Erlong’s voice cut in steadily, drawing everyone’s attention.

Her gaze fell on the six spirit rings emitting a deep luster on Lin Qingmo, her expression showing understanding.

"A-Qing must have completed a stage of his God Trial and received a reward of increased spirit ring age."

Xiao Wu blinked: "God Trial can also increase spirit ring age?"

Liu Erlong nodded slightly: "I also received it after completing the Seagod’s Light, the first Seagod Trial."

Without unnecessary chatter, she calmly released her own spirit rings as evidence.

Eight spirit rings slowly emerged: Purple, Purple, Purple, Purple, Black, Black, Black, Black.

Four Purple, Four Black.

Dugu Yan gasped: "Teacher Erlong, your spirit rings have changed too?"

"The completion reward for the first Seagod Trial includes an overall increase in spirit ring age."

Liu Erlong retracted her spirit rings, her tone flat: "A-Qing’s God Trial is different from mine, but it seems to have a similar reward mechanism."

Everyone suddenly realized.

Ning Rongrong murmured: "But... isn’t A-Qing’s configuration a bit too outrageous?"

No one answered her, because the answer was obvious—it was indeed outrageous!

Liu Erlong deeply agreed.

With the same reward mechanism, A-Qing’s God Trial rewards were clearly more abundant.

Otherwise, Lin Qingmo’s first and second spirit rings wouldn’t have directly transformed from thousand-year spirit rings to ten-thousand-year spirit rings.

Her own spirit power had already reached level eighty-nine.

One step away from Titled Douluo.

For the vast majority of Spirit Douluo, this step was a chasm that was lifelong difficult to cross.

But with the support of subsequent Seagod Trial rewards, Liu Erlong had enough confidence.

Breaking through to Titled Douluo was likely just a matter of time.

Everyone was still immersed in the shock of Lin Qingmo’s spirit ring transformation.

Lin Qingmo himself had already calmed down.

He felt a little regret in his heart.

"The reward is still very generous, but there is no god-bestowed spirit ring."

If he could obtain a god-bestowed spirit ring, he could use it to directly obtain his seventh spirit ring and break through to become an official Spirit Saint.

Unfortunately, it was a pipe dream after all.

But on second thought, this might not be a bad thing.

The seventh spirit ring held an extremely special significance in the cultivation system of Spirit Masters.

Because the seventh spirit ring was not a Spirit Ability, but a unified Martial Soul True Body.

The Martial Soul True Body was the deepest Fusion form of a Spirit Master and their own Spirit, the ultimate manifestation of power.

The age of the seventh spirit ring would directly determine the upper limit of the strength of the Martial Soul True Body.

The Martial Soul True Body spawned by a hundred-year seventh spirit ring and a 100,000-year seventh spirit ring were products of two completely different dimensions.

Since there was no god-bestowed spirit ring to save the trouble of choosing, he had to carefully consider it.

The seventh spirit ring had nothing to do with the type or quality of the Spirit, only the age.

Naturally, the higher the age, the better.

Just as he was pondering the seventh spirit ring,

The God of Destruction trial mark in his mind trembled again, and cold information poured into his consciousness,

[Destruction Third Trial]: Defeat a 100,000-Year Soul Beast and a Titled Douluo above level ninety alone.

Lin Qingmo’s pupils constricted.

100,000-Year Soul Beast!

A Spirit Beast hegemon possessing near-human intelligence.

Titled Douluo, the existence at the pinnacle of the continent’s Spirit Master pyramid.

Each one was a strategic force capable of affecting the situation of a country by their own power.

To challenge these two targets with his current level seventy spirit power?

"As expected of the God of Destruction’s God Trial, the difficulty doesn’t give people room to breathe."

The difficulty wasn’t increasing linearly; it was a leap of exponential magnitude.

But Lin Qingmo felt no fear.

Since the God of Destruction had chosen him, it meant this path was never meant for Mortals.

Lin Qingmo composed himself and turned around, just in time to see High Priestess Bo Saixi walking over steadily.

The attitude of this High Priest of the Sea God Temple had changed subtly compared to half a year ago.

When he first arrived at Sea God Island, the scrutiny and guard in her eyes were barely concealed.

But at this moment, there was a bit more genuine respect.

"The ship is ready, you can set sail at any time."

High Priestess Bo Saixi paused: "According to the old rules of Sea God Island, those who land on the island cannot come and go as they please."

"But you... are the person personally blessed by the oracle of Lord Sea God."

The implication was clear.

If it were anyone else, it wouldn’t be so easy to leave.

Lin Qingmo cupped his fists solemnly: "Thank you, SeniorHigh Priestess Bo Saixi, for your care over the past half year. This Junior will keep this kindness in mind."

"We will return before long, and we will have to rely on you again, Senior."

High Priestess Bo Saixi was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly: "The gates of Sea God Island are open for you, go."

There was no extra politeness.

It was the Seven Sacred Pillars behind her whose expressions were moved.

This young man had made the entire Sea God Island remember his name in just half a year.

...

The ship sailed away from Sea God Island, cleaving through the azure sea and breaking waves toward the continent.

The sea breeze swept across the deck, and everyone dispersed, either resting or gazing into the distance.

The half-year of island Cultivate had given them a different kind of affection for this sea area.

At the moment of parting, there was some reluctance.

Suddenly!

The sea in the distance was stirred by something.

A huge white figure leaped out from under the water, drawing a silver arc in the sunlight.

It was Xiao Bai!

Immediately after, the sea on both sides of the ship exploded with huge splashes at the same time.

One, two, three... dozens of Devil Spirit Great White Sharks emerged from the deep sea.

In addition, there was a group of other sea Spirit Beasts.

They lined up neatly on both sides of the ship.

The shark fins cut through the sea surface, flashing with a metallic cold light in the sunlight.

Xiao Wu ran to the ship’s side, her eyes lighting up with surprise: "It’s Xiao Bai’s friends, they are seeing us off!"

Dugu Yan leaned against the ship’s side, clicking her tongue in admiration: "A-Qing can build such a reputation in the sea, tsk, it feels even bigger than Xiao Wu, the prospective Sea God."

Lin Qingmo stood at the bow, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

These Spirit Beasts were not driven by him.

Rather, it was the network Xiao Bai had built in the Sea God Island waters over the past half year.

As his Spirit Beast partner, Xiao Bai had a very high status among the sea Spirit Beasts.

The Devil Spirit Great White Shark clan had established a relationship similar to a covenant with him.

This send-off was Xiao Bai’s Face, and also a farewell from this sea area.

The shark school and the sea Spirit Beast school escorted them until they were far away from the Sea God Island waters before gradually dispersing.

Finally, before leaving, Xiao Bai leaped out of the water and slapped the surface heavily, stirring up a column of water several feet high.

A rough and enthusiastic farewell.
