Chapter 130: Obtaining the Faith-Based Godhood Method, Taking the Sea God Trident
"This is... a divine trial reward!"
Seeing this, Bo Saixi and Qian Daoliu immediately understood. Both of them were high priests of gods and had previously received divine rewards that increased their soul ring ages, so this scene was not unfamiliar to them.
The Sea God's divine power was transforming the soul rings on Yun Yuan's body. The first yellow soul ring and the second purple soul ring successively turned black.
Immediately afterward, the colors of Yun Yuan's first five soul rings deepened, eventually becoming deep black soul rings marked with blood-red patterns.
But this was not the end. The sixth deep black soul ring on Yun Yuan's body also began changing color, ultimately transforming into a blood-red soul ring.
At this moment, Yun Yuan's soul ring configuration had become five black, two red, and one gold.
Such a terrifying soul ring configuration undoubtedly made him the number one person of this era.
After sensing the changes in his soul rings, within his spiritual sea, Yun Yuan's divine sense continued writing down the reward for the second divine trial.
"Reward for the second trial of the Sea God Nine Trials: The inheritor shall obtain the method of becoming a god through faith."
For the second divine trial reward, Yun Yuan no longer chose to increase soul ring ages. Instead, he chose to have the Sea God teach him the method he once used to become a god through faith.
Back then, after reaching the pinnacle of the ocean, the Sea God spent a full thousand years gathering the faith of the seas before eventually creating the Sea God position himself and becoming a first-class god within the God Realm.
The Sea God's method of becoming a god through faith was precisely what Yun Yuan desired most. Right now, Yun Yuan himself already possesses the power of faith on the continent.
However, Yun Yuan did not understand how to collect or utilize the power of faith.
Before accepting the Sea God's inheritance, Yun Yuan originally planned to rely on his heaven-defying comprehension to personally deduce the method of becoming a god through faith.
But now, with the Sea God—a predecessor who had already become a god through faith—guiding him, there was naturally no need to waste additional time exploring this path himself.
By learning the Sea God's method of becoming a god through faith and then improving it using his own heaven-defying comprehension, Yun Yuan could avoid many years of detours.
God Realm, Sea God Temple.
After learning of the second divine trial reward Yun Yuan desired, the Sea God sat upon the Sea God Throne and smiled faintly.
A streak of blue light shot from his fingertips, passed through the divine trial mark, and directly infused Yun Yuan's mind.
The method of becoming a god through faith was not some great secret. Any god who had created their own god position understood it to some degree.
The only difference lay in how much they understood. As a god who had personally created a first-class god position, the Sea God's understanding of faith-based godhood naturally far surpassed that of ordinary gods.
On the sea, Yun Yuan quickly received the method of becoming a god through faith transmitted by the Sea God.
This method included collecting faith, using it to construct a god position, and more...
Yun Yuan immersed himself in understanding this faith-based godhood method, forgetting all else and even losing track of time.
Outside, Bo Saixi and Qian Daoliu noticed the divine trial mark on Yun Yuan's forehead continuously flickering. Although they found Yun Yuan's condition strange,
They understood that the only thing they could do now was create an environment where Yun Yuan would not be disturbed.
After briefly understanding the method of becoming a god through faith, Yun Yuan finally suppressed his excitement and began writing down the reward for his third divine trial in his spiritual sea.
"Reward for the third trial of the Sea God Nine Trials: The inheritor may wield the Sea God Trident."
God Realm.
After learning of the third divine trial reward Yun Yuan desired, the Sea God merely hesitated briefly before granting Yun Yuan the authority to use the Sea God Trident.
After all, the Sea God position would eventually be inherited by Yun Yuan anyway. With Yun Yuan's current strength already sufficient to rival gods, he was fully qualified to wield the Sea God Trident.
Immediately afterward, azure light flowed across the Sea God's fingertips before entering Yun Yuan's body through the divine trial mark.
Once Yun Yuan approached the Sea God Trident, this azure light would cause the ultra divine weapon to recognize Yun Yuan as its master.
Furthermore, this azure light would also repair the damaged Sea God Trident by fusing Yun Yuan's Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud with it, restoring it to a complete ultra divine weapon.
After consecutively writing down three divine trial rewards and receiving the Sea God's blessings, Yun Yuan's divine sense finally withdrew from the spiritual sea.
"Bo Saixi, let's return to Sea God Island. Lord Sea God has already granted me the authority to use the Sea God Trident. As I am now, I can already retrieve that Sea God Trident."
"Yes, Lord Yun Yuan."
Bo Saixi nodded slightly in response to Yun Yuan. Although she was the Sea God High Priest, she remained completely unaware of the contents of Yun Yuan's Sea God Nine Trials.
Among all high priests, she was probably the only one in such a situation.
Before leaving, Yun Yuan retrieved the Yin-Yang Whale Pearl from the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's body.
This was a treasure. In the original story, this object could replace the Sea God Heart and restore the Sea God Trident.
At the summit of Sea God Island, inside the Sea God Temple.
The figures of Yun Yuan, Qian Daoliu, and Bo Saixi appeared there.
Upon returning to the Sea God Temple, Yun Yuan's gaze focused on the trident pedestal on the third level, where the ultra divine weapon, the Sea God Trident, floated in the air.
Yun Yuan stepped forward once, and his figure instantly vanished from his original location before appearing beside the trident pedestal.
The moment Yun Yuan approached, the azure light from the third divine trial reward burst out from his body, forming a blue barrier that enveloped both Yun Yuan and the Sea God Trident.
Within the blue barrier, Yun Yuan only felt his connection with the Sea God Trident growing increasingly close, giving him the same feeling as facing his martial soul, the Atlas Spear.
Immediately afterward, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud on Yun Yuan's body appeared before the Sea God Trident and began fusing with it.
The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was the Sea God's Heart, an essential component of the Sea God Trident. Only after restoring this component could the Sea God Trident unleash the true might of an ultra divine weapon.
As time passed, when the Sea God's Heart completely fused into the Sea God Trident, Yun Yuan suddenly sensed that he could now wield the Sea God Trident.
Yun Yuan grasped the trident shaft with one hand. Unlike the trial Tang San faced in the original work, there was no challenge at all. Instead, everything felt incomparably easy.
The Sea God Trident weighed one hundred and eight thousand jin, but after recognizing its master, its weight became merely one hundred and eight jin in the wielder's hands.
With slight force, Yun Yuan pulled the Sea God Trident from the pedestal. Instantly, outside Sea God Island, ocean waves roared, the winds and clouds changed color, the entire Sea God Mountain began trembling, and endless golden light shot into the sky.
At the same time, after obtaining permanent authority to wield the Sea God Trident, the first three forms of the Sea Gods Golden Thirteen Halberds appeared within Yun Yuan's mind.
Unfixed Storm, Millennial Space, and One Goes Without Return.
These Sea Gods Golden Thirteen Halberds were self-created by Poseidon. Every strike could be considered a divine skill.
Among them, the ultimate thirteenth combined technique, Twilight of the Sea God, possessed power sufficient to destroy heaven and earth.
Even after Tang San reached the God King level, the Sea Gods Golden Thirteen Halberds still displayed astonishing effectiveness in battles between God Kings.
One could easily imagine just how exquisitely profound the Sea Gods Golden Thirteen Halberds truly were.
