Chapter 499: The New God of Fire, the God of Destruction!
The Divine Realm, Poseidon's Mansion.
Poseidon trembled all over, his pupils constricting.
He never expected that the girl Tang San wanted to kill was actually related to this person!
Judging by the other party's demeanor, they were planning to settle the score after the match.
Going against this person, the probability of Tang San surviving was almost zero!
"No, I can't just sit and wait!"
"Anyway, Tang San has already completed the eighth trial of the Sea God, and can start the ninth trial at any time. I must pass on the divine position to him before he dies!"
Poseidon was somewhat flustered. He never expected that Tang San would be so reckless!
He had to pass on the divine position to Tang San immediately, right now, and then make a run for it!
As for the need for Poseidon's sacrifice to open the temple, forget it...
Thinking this, Poseidon no longer hesitated and immediately descended his divine consciousness. After all, this was the ninth trial, merging the divine armor and divine position, and he wasn't breaking any rules.
"Even if that person doesn't interfere, Tang San might not survive today..."
The girl who made a five-year pact with Tang San is the heir of the God of Destruction, and it seems she has already inherited the divine position...
If he dilly-dallies, Tang San, this "inheritor," might be gone, and he would have to choose a new successor, which would be too troublesome.
In a moment, a golden light flashed on the Elemental Academy's playground, and a majestic figure emerged from the golden light.
This figure is Poseidon's divine soul.
As Poseidon appeared, everyone was stunned, especially the people from the Four Elemental Academies. When had they ever seen such a scene?
What surprised them even more was yet to come...
Poseidon cupped his hands towards Zhongli's direction and said with a serious expression, "This humble god greets the Martial God!"
Everyone: "..."
Looking at Poseidon, then at Zhongli, everyone was wilded.
A god...
This is a god!
Everyone swallowed hard, the Geo Archon's prestige was still rising!
"Sea God Poseidon, what brings you here?"
Zhongli spoke calmly, his face showing no emotion.
"Reporting to the Martial God, this humble god is here to initiate the Sea God's inheritance for Tang San."
"The will of the heir does not represent the will of the god. I have no choice but to pass the divine position to Tang San. Please allow me to pass the divine position to him before the match..."
Poseidon spoke respectfully, fearing that Zhongli might misunderstand, he hurriedly explained.
Hearing this, Zhongli looked at Poseidon's divine soul, and in a moment, he understood.
This matter had nothing to do with this Sea God; he just wanted to pass on the position and run away.
"Sss..."
Everyone gasped, feeling their scalps tingle!
This is a god, although they didn't know how powerful he was, judging by his attitude towards Zhongli, Zhongli was an even more terrifying existence!
Even something as significant as passing on a divine position, the Sea God had to "report" to Zhongli, showing just how terrifying Zhongli's status and strength were.
Tang San was stunned, looking at Poseidon in disbelief. This was a first-level god, at the peak of existence, and he actually, actually...
After inheriting the Sea God's position, could he really defeat Zhongli?
For a moment, Tang San fell into deep thought!
Suddenly, Tang San seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up, and he thought to himself, "If merging the Sea God's position can't defeat Zhongli, there's still the Shura s position."
"If all else fails, merge the two, I don't believe..."
Wait, he was about to complete the five-year pact with Xiao Feilian. If he merged the Sea God's position now, would Xiao Feilian still stand a chance?
This five-year pact, Tang San was sure to win!
"Granted."
Receiving Zhongli's reply, Poseidon was overjoyed. This person really was reasonable!
If they had known earlier that this person was so reasonable, why would the Divine Realm have fought with him?
"Thank you, Martial God!"
The Sea God quickly expressed his gratitude. If Zhongli hadn't been granted permission, he really wouldn't dare to pass the position to Tang San now, but with permission, it was different!
"Tang San, originally, the inheritance of the divine position should have been done after you returned to the Sea God's Temple, but times have changed, so let's do it here."
When facing Tang San, the Sea God's tone was somewhat colder.
Who was Tang San?
How could he not detect the coldness in Poseidon's words?
"This Sea God has a death wish!"
He thought to himself, but on the surface, he calmly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Sea God."
"No, no... I should be thanking you!"
Poseidon thought to himself. A Sea God who couldn't control the sea was no different from a salted fish.
Luckily, he, Poseidon, was strong enough. Even if he couldn't control the sea, his strength was not something a second-level god could match.
But Tang San was different. If he became a new god, one who hadn't inherited much of Poseidon's power, this Sea God position would be nothing...
Of course, even if he couldn't control the sea, Tang San after inheriting the position would still be much stronger than a divine official or a celestial hunter.
Poseidon didn't waste any words, golden light scattered from him onto Tang San, and Tang San's figure instantly disappeared.
As Tang San disappeared, a "screen" was left on the scene, and soon a figure appeared on the screen, it was the disappeared Tang San.
This method was too simple for Poseidon!
Everyone's eyes instinctively turned to the screen. This was the secret of how a human becomes a god!
Watching a human become a god, what a wonderful thing!
Poseidon's divine soul, however, did not disappear. He looked at Xiao Feilian and Du Siji, his eyes flashing with surprise!
"Greetings, God of Destruction..."
Poseidon cupped his hands towards Xiao Feilian and said with a serious expression.
"Greetings, Sea God..."
Although this Sea God had passed his position to Tang San, he didn't seem like a bad person, and he was so polite, taking the initiative to greet.
"The God of Destruction flatters this humble god. Although I am only one level below the previous God of Destruction, our strength is worlds apart."
"I do not deserve the title of 'Lord'..."
"If the God of Destruction is willing, you may call me 'senior.'"
Poseidon stroked his beard and spoke.
If he could still control the sea, even if Xiao Feilian had inherited the God of Destruction's position, she wouldn't be his match for a while.
The title of "senior," he could bear it!
As for "Lord," Xiao Feilian was destined to become a God King, a supreme divine position, which he, the Sea God, could not bear.
"Senior, since you know Tang San is not a good person, why..."
Before Xiao Feilian could finish, Poseidon waved his hand, his gaze turned towards the sea, and said with a bitter smile, "I have my reasons. The current Sea God position... Sigh, you'll understand when he inherits the position and fights you."
Poseidon sobbed and said helplessly.
Hearing this, Xiao Feilian didn't press further and nodded.
Even if Tang San inherited the Sea God's position, she was not afraid at all!
"Du Siji, I once observed you, but unfortunately, your path was different from mine, so I didn't choose you as my heir."
"Unexpectedly, you obtained the position of my old rival. Not bad, not bad. That guy couldn't break the limit, but perhaps you can!"
"Keep it up, young man! The new God of Fire!"

Chapter 500: 500: Brother San, He's Playing You!!!
"God of Destruction, God of Fire?"
At this moment, the playground was eerily silent, with everyone looking at Xiao Feilian and Du Siji in confusion.
These two had actually become gods?
Wow, truly wow, they've been so low-key after becoming gods, with no news about it at all!
If it were anyone else, the entire Douluo Continent would have known about it.
As for how strong the God of Destruction and the God of Fire really are, one could get a hint from the words of Poseidon, the Sea God.
The God of Fire should be about the same level as him, while the God of Destruction is above the Sea God.
At the edge of the playground, Xiao Wu stood frozen. She had thought her Brother San was invincible, but she never expected that the godhood he inherited would be so underwhelming.
To think that this god could resurrect her, yet in the divine realm, he was just a small fry.
For a moment, Xiao Wu found it hard to accept.
As for Tang San wanting to kill Xiangling and Guoba, Xiao Wu knew about it, but she didn't see anything wrong with it.
What's wrong with killing a human genius girl?
And those evil spirit beasts, they deserved to die.
The only thing that bothered Xiao Wu was that the Sea God didn't seem as powerful as she had imagined.
Everyone remained silent, taking a moment to process everything before turning their gaze back to the "screen," wanting to see how Tang San had become a god.
On the "screen," Tang San went from looking around nervously to appear calm and composed, with a confident momentum gradually emerging on his face.
"Tang San, the ninth trial of the Sea God originally tests the heir's temperament and will, but in your current state, you cannot complete it."
As Poseidon said this, Tang San felt even more that this guy deserved to die!
His temperament and will be as firm as iron and stone, how could he not complete it?
Poseidon was completely slandering him!
The audience nodded upon seeing this. If one's temperament isn't strong, becoming a god will likely bring disaster. Such a person didn't deserve to become a god.
The Sea God really had some skills.
Xiao Wu pursed her lips. These people, even the gods, were slandering her Brother San. How could Tang San, who shouted "Resurrect, my love!" in the Star Dou Great Forest, don't have a firm temperament?
That shout alone had silenced all the high-level spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest!
"Sigh, I can't be bothered to waste words with you. Just fuse with the godly armor and the godhood."
"Of course, there will still be necessary trials."
Poseidon didn't continue speaking and simply waved his hand, casting a spell on Tang San.
Tang San's body began to emit a sea-blue light, with hints of golden light flickering.
Except for his right leg, all other parts of his body began to glow…
Tang San wasn't in a full spirit bone state at the moment because of his bet with Xiao Feilian, which was for the 100, 000-year Blue Silver Emperor right leg bone. Even though he had obtained the right leg bone, he hadn't fused with it.
Without a full set of spirit bones, he couldn't fuse with the godly armor. From Tang San's Twenty-Four Bridge Moonlight Night, a 10,000-year right leg bone flew out and landed on his right leg.
"No, I have a better choice, I can't fuse with this spirit bone!"
Seeing this, Tang San panicked, but he couldn't resist at this moment. Under the sea-blue divine light, he was completely immobilized.
"To fuse with the godly armor, you need the standard six spirit bones. If you don't fuse with this one, your godly armor won't be complete."
"Are you sure you don't want to fuse?"
Poseidon spoke calmly, the 10,000-year spirit bone floating quietly beside Tang San's right leg, making him fall into deep thought.
After a while, Tang San gritted his teeth and nodded, "Fuse it!"
There was no other choice. The divine trial had already begun, and he had no way out.
Seeing this, Poseidon nodded expressionlessly and then fused the 10,000-year spirit bone with Tang San.
The fusion went smoothly. After all, Tang San was already at level 99, so the process was quick, taking about a quarter of an hour to complete.
The moment Tang San successfully fused, a flash of light erupted, and the spirit bone seemed to be on the verge of separating!
Tang San: "???"
At this moment, Tang San was completely baffled. He had just made up his mind to fuse the spirit bone, and now, after successfully fusing, it was being separated?
"To forge the godly armor, the spirit bones must naturally be separated!"
As Poseidon said this, not only was Tang San stunned, but the entire audience was also dumbfounded. Their expressions were priceless, mouths slightly agape, wanting to speak but holding back.
"Brother San, he's playing you!!!"
Xiao Wu screamed at the top of her lungs, but Tang San couldn't hear her.
Even though he couldn't hear, Tang San's expression answered everything!
His face darkened, and his eyes burned with anger as he looked at Poseidon.
If the spirit bone was going to be separated, why did this bastard make him fuse it first?
Why not just forge it directly?
"Ah—"
The pain of having a spirit bone separated was not something an ordinary person could endure. Tang San was immediately drenched in cold sweat, his face pale.
And this was just the right leg bone, which had just been fused and hadn't yet taken deep root.
"Tang San, each time a spirit bone is separated, during the forging of the godly armor, you must undergo a trial."
"This is a rule of the divine realm, and even I cannot violate it. Giving you a hint is the only thing I can do."
Hearing this echo in his ears, Tang San finally snapped out of the pain of bone separation.
"A trial?"
"I will definitely succeed!"
As Tang San said this, the trial began!
In the original timeline, the ninth trial tested the seven emotions and six desires. Although it had been simplified, it was still a rare trial.
Especially Tang San's line: "You're not her…"
And that line: "My virginity must be given to Xiao Wu!"
It was truly shocking, enough to make one's hair stand on end.
Poseidon, knowing Tang San's temperament was lacking, naturally didn't use the original trial, and the difficulty of the trial was adjusted by a tiny bit.
In the Sea God's temple, the scene shifted to the Star Dou Great Forest.
The lush forest was filled with the whispers of spirit beasts and the chirping of insects.
A pink rabbit hopped into view, followed by a gorilla and a bull python, their expressions…
Feng Xiaotian was very familiar with them!
And so were those who knew Feng Xiaotian!
This was the expression of a simp!
Seeing this scene, Tang San was momentarily stunned, feeling confused and bewildered.
Was this the trial?
Was he supposed to kill this rabbit and those two spirit beasts?
The Sky Azure Bull Python, the Titan Giant Ape… wait, was that rabbit the Soft Bone Rabbit?
Just then, an even larger pink rabbit appeared, and the three spirit beasts stopped in their tracks.
The small pink rabbit paused for a moment before rushing towards the large pink rabbit, nuzzling against its chest.
"Xiao Wu, have you been causing trouble with Daming and Erming again?"
The large rabbit speaks in human language.
"Gasp— A 100,000-year spirit beast!"
Everyone gasped, feeling their scalps tingle, utterly confused.
Wasn't this Tang San's trial?
Why was it related to spirit beasts?
Wait, the large rabbit had called out: "Xiao Wu!"
