"Scraping... Gua Sha?"
When the Sea Horse Douluo heard Luo Yu describe the attack that had just changed everyone's complexion as Gua Sha, his mentality nearly exploded.
I was scared to death just now, deeply afraid of being accidentally injured, and you're telling me that level of intense attack is called Gua Sha?
Is this a way to imply I am a good-for-nothing?
The other Pillar Guardians were similarly speechless; they were all muttering in their hearts, thinking that Luo Yu was a monster. Why was he so abnormally strong?
Poseissi gazed intently at Luo Yu, sizing him up over and over again.
She wanted to see what kind of creature he was, to have such a terrifying physical strength at such a young age.
She knew very well how much strength she had exerted just now and how powerful the impact of the thousand heavy waves was.
And this man didn't even hurt a single hair?
"Don't just stand there, hurry up and start."
Hearing Luo Yu's urging voice, Poseissi bit the tip of her tongue and snapped out of her shock.
This time she did not hold back, mobilizing her Soul Power, directly boosting the power of the tides by three hundred times from the start, truly meeting Luo Yu's request.
"Boom!"
This time, the waves were thunderous and even more frightening than before.
The moment the impact came, the extremely solid black reefs on the ground started to show fine cracks.
"Crash!"
Inside the valley, it was as if thunder had exploded; the sound of the waves was deafening, stirring in all directions and spreading across the island.
The Sea Horse Douluo's eyes were wide open as he spoke with apprehension.
"This is bloody outrageous; who can withstand that for a whole day, damn it."
Amidst the invading waves, Luo Yu's voice came through.
"Hiss—"
"This is exhilarating!"
"Thrilling."
"Ah, what…"
The Seven Pillar Guardians looked at each other, feeling that this was absolutely preposterous.
The ferocious tides were so terrifying; couldn't they see that even the black reefs that had been washed over thousands of times couldn't take it?
And this old fellow started humming?
The ecstasy in his voice made everyone feel that Luo Yu wasn't taking part in the trial, but enjoying a bath and massage.
The crowd was numb.
The tidal onslaught was continuous, wave after wave kept coming, never ceasing.
The crowd was now numb to it; they truly had not expected that when Luo Yu said he could endure, he would be able to withstand it for so long.
In their hearts, they couldn't help but feel admiration; it was just too incredible.
Respectful awe flashed through the eyes of the Sea Horse Douluo.
Gradually, there were no more sounds from Luo Yu within the tides.
The Sea Dragon Douluo couldn't help but say, "Why hasn't there been a sound from inside for so long, could it be that he finally can't hold on anymore?"
"Shouldn't be," the Sea Horse Douluo hesitated.
The Sea Dragon Douluo stroked his chin.
"Might be gritting his teeth and enduring it, not having the spare energy to make any other sounds."
Purple Pearl shaped her hands into a megaphone at her mouth, channeled her Soul Power, and shouted loudly, her voice mixing with the roaring of the crashing waves.
"Brother Yu, are you okay? Why is there no sound? If you can't hold on, you must say something."
A response came from within after a few moments.
"Don't worry, I was just dozing off a bit, so I didn't make a sound."
"What?" Purple Pearl was stunned.
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched; what kind of deity was this? Shouldn't it be hard just to stay alive in there, and yet he could feel sleepy?
It was terrifying.
"Little Xi, why has the force of the tide become weaker? Are you not able to keep up? You can't go easy on me."
Yelled Luo Yu leisurely.
"Hmm?"
"I'm worried that you deliberately reduced the power because of me; you're still up for more?"
Poseissi's Beautiful Eyes tensed up, she was angry.
The Soul Power in his body couldn't help but intensify and output with increased force.
The sea's waves surged to the sky, and the valley roared incessantly, with Sea God's Island constantly shaking and trembling.
Time moved backwards.
From day to night, and then to the rise of the early red sun.
For a full day, Poseissi had not stopped.
The Seven Pillar Guardians and Purple Pearl had also stayed there the whole time, looking at Luo Yu, who was being baptized and cleansed on the silver pillar in the valley, their expressions had long since become extremely complex.
Sea Horse Douluo couldn't help but sigh, "A day... he has persisted for an entire day, this guy actually held on."
Sea Dragon Douluo nodded.
"Yes, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, who could believe that a youth could endure a whole day in such a terrifying tidal body forging process."
Poseissi's red lips had turned somewhat pale, and her nine soul rings had obviously dimmed.
She seemed fine on the surface.
But internally, she was already inundated with waves.
The Soul Power was constantly being consumed.
She who was responsible for controlling the waves and tides was almost at her limit, how could this man still hold on.
How did the man do it, was he a monster?
Poseissi's spirit was somewhat hazy.
"Is it an illusion."
"Why do I always feel that this man's physical strength might even surpass mine."
At this time, Sea Dragon Douluo's ears twitched, and his face showed a strange expression.
"Did you hear any strange noises?"
Sea Star Douluo was puzzled, "Strange noises? Isn't there only the sound of waves?"
"No, it's not just the sound of waves!" Sea Dragon Douluo listened intently with his ear tilted.
Everyone was perplexed but indeed heard an abnormal sound.
"Thump... Thump... Thump!"
Muffled sounds were mixed in with the roaring crashes of the waves, and you really couldn't make them out if you didn't listen carefully.
"Where is this noise coming from, why do I feel like the sound is getting louder and louder?" Sea Dragon Douluo said with astonishment.
After listening carefully, Sea Star Douluo pointed in that direction.
"It seems to be... over there?"
"Over there?"
Everyone followed the direction of his finger and saw that it was indeed the center of the valley, where Luo Yu was located.
Wisps of light red mist faintly emerged from the water.
The thumping sound originated from there, and it was growing more and more intense.
From a faint noise that required close listening to eventually becoming as loud as the roaring waves and even overpowered the sound of the waves at last.
"Thump!"
Everyone felt as if their heartbeats were following the rhythm of this sound.
"What's going on?" asked Sea Horse Douluo, confused.
After hesitating, Sea Dragon Douluo exclaimed in horror, "This... this couldn't be that kid's heartbeat, could it?"
"No way, whose heartbeat is so loud that it can be heard from so far away?" said Sea Star Douluo and the others, shaking their heads.
"Thump!!!"
As a loud bang rang out, everyone trembled, and a myriad of waves were blasted open from the center of the valley, with the red qi and blood force spreading out, sweeping across the area.
The silver ring instantly shattered, its fragments shooting in all directions.
A tall youth enveloped by dense red qi and blood force emerged triumphantly.
Poseissi was shaken to the core, along with everyone else who turned their gaze towards him.
"Is it... really a heartbeat?"
"This guy... what's going on with his physique."
Luo Yu felt a slight surprise in his heart; he hadn't expected that a whole day of doubly intensified tidal body forging would indeed stimulate his physique, helping him achieve a breakthrough.
Although it was just a slight breakthrough, for his current Divine Body, even a slight breakthrough was incredibly hard and worth celebrating.
At the same time, the mark of the Sea God's Trident on his forehead flashed a golden light screen.
