Chapter 230 The first assessment

"The first of the Poseidon's nine tests is to pass through the Poseidon's light."

"If you want to pass this level, just do what we said before. You try it yourself first. When you reach your limit, you can stay where you are and practice."

"And I can then find a target for you depending on the situation."

In a hotel in Haixing City, Zhu Zhuqing and Gu Yi were sitting cross-legged on the bed, discussing what they should do tomorrow.

"According to your judgment, I should be able to reach around the 40th floor at most, and our goal is the 333rd floor. Is it really feasible?"

It wasn't that she didn't know Gu Yi's plan, but she still felt it wasn't feasible.

"Don't worry, all my actions are within the permission of the rules, and as long as the number is sufficient, I don't believe that I can't help you pass the assessment."

Gu Yi himself is very confident, at least in his mind, this should be the most perfect plan.

"But didn't you say before that waiting a few more days at this level would help me practice?"

"Is it really not necessary?"

Zhu Zhuqing's obsession with improving her strength is still very strong, otherwise she would not have been able to achieve such a strong soul power at such an age.

"No need. Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to practice in the future. I can even bring you a few more fairy grasses by then."

"Moreover, the faster you can pass the Ninth Poseidon Test, the better. It is best if you can pass it before Bibi Dong and the others. In this way, I can rest assured of your safety."

After saying that, Gu Yi relaxed and lay down. He stared at the ceiling and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Then I will do everything as you say."

…

The next morning, Gu Yi and Zhu Zhuqing, led by Bo Saixi, arrived at a small island.

The terrain on the island is very high, about 500 meters high. The most peculiar thing is that the island is shrouded in a faint golden light. Although the light is not strong, Gu Yi can also see that it definitely does not come from the sunset. The light is the island's own brilliance.

At the top of the island, there was a building that looked like a white jade carving, with a square shape and a dome. From where they stood, they could only see that the outermost edge of the building was composed of huge white stone pillars.

And its overall material is so crystal clear and full of divine brilliance.

"It's so beautiful~ Is this a forbidden area?"

Zhu Zhuqing looked at the picturesque building in front of him with disbelief in his eyes.

"Yes, this is the forbidden area of ​​our Poseidon Island. The Poseidon Temple dedicated to Lord Poseidon is the only building on the top of Poseidon Mountain. It is also the real Poseidon Island, also known as the island within the island.

"Everyone, please see, in front of us are the stairs to the island. That's where you need to pass the test. There are a thousand and one steps in total."

"Only the guardians of Poseidon Island who have passed Lord Poseidon's purple-level assessment or above are qualified to step up the steps and enter Poseidon Temple to worship. Otherwise, they will be blocked by Poseidon's light. If you want to try the test, you can go now. I I will wait for you here, but please don’t make any noise on Poseidon Mountain, so as not to disturb Lord Poseidon.”

Bo Saixi looked at the Poseidon Temple at the top, his face full of piety.

"I know, let's go, we have a sense of discretion."

Gu Yi nodded and responded.

Hearing this, Bo Saixi said no more. With a wave of her scepter, her body floated up and then slowly flew into the Poseidon Temple.

"Then let's go and see how many steps you can reach."

With that said, Gu Yi took Zhu Zhuqing's little hand and activated the third soul skill instantly. After a flash of white light, the two of them came under the steps.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded towards Gu Yi, and then stepped forward firmly.

But even though she had been mentally prepared for it, the pressure she faced after just taking the first step shocked her.

Zhu Zhuqing quickly mobilized the soul power in his body, blessed himself, and took this step steadily.

But when she stood up, she suddenly felt overwhelming pressure, squeezing her body hard.

Just like pressing your finger into a balloon, and the balloon is about to pop out with your finger, a layer of golden mist appeared around the body, and Zhu Zhuqing clearly felt that his soul power was beginning to be consumed rapidly.

Without hesitation or pause, she increased the speed of her feet. In a short time, she rushed to the fortieth floor.

At this moment, sweat had wet all the clothes on her body. Fatigue and weakness were the clearest feelings she could feel at the moment.

"If you can't hold on any longer, come down."

Gu Yi stood at the bottom of the steps, looking at Zhu Zhuqing who was sweating profusely, and persuaded with some worry.

He was worried that Zhu Zhuqing would force himself. Although the pressure brought by the Poseidon's Light would not hurt anyone, Zhu Zhuqing's body would not be able to bear it if it was consumed too much.

"I'm fine, I can still take a few more steps forward."

With that said, Zhu Zhuqing lifted her already trembling right leg again and stepped up.

She knew that she must not stop. Once she stopped, the soul power in her body would be consumed in vain, which was not worth it.

Forty-one, forty-two, forty-three, Zhu Zhuqing was finally reaching his limit.

She could clearly feel that the soul power in her body was almost exhausted, and her body's recovery could no longer keep up with the consumption of the Poseidon's Light.

But she still didn't want to give up. She looked at the forty-fourth step, raised her feet again, and stepped out boldly.

It was this step that brought Zhu Zhuqing's body to its limit. Under the impact of this terrifying pressure, it successfully helped Zhu Zhuqing open the first of the eight extraordinary meridians in his body, and his soul power reached level seventy-seven. .

The sudden soul power made Zhu Zhuqing step forward steadily!

A smile appeared on her face and she was able to break through the pressure. This feeling was so refreshing!

She thought it was her last step just now, but now it seems that she can take a few more steps.

Without hesitation, Zhu Zhuqing took several more steps in succession. When he reached the fiftieth floor, Zhu Zhuqing finally couldn't hold on anymore and was ejected by the pressure on the steps.

Fortunately, there was Gu Yi watching from below, so Zhu Zhuqing was not thrown into the sea.

"Our Zhuqing is really powerful, but don't be so pushy next time. Just try your best. I'll be there for everything."

Gu Yi held the exhausted Zhu Zhuqing in his arms, and his right hand kept sending divine power into her body, relieving her physical fatigue.

Only he knows that it is really not easy for Zhu Zhuqing to be like this.

In the original work, although Tang San is not as good as Zhu Zhuqing in terms of soul power, he has two realms and an attached soul bone. But even so, he is still only five levels higher than Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing could reach the fiftieth floor solely by relying on his own soul power and persistence without any external help. Gu Yi was already very satisfied.

He gently wiped the sweat from Zhu Zhuqing's forehead, then turned to look at the steps aside.

"It seems that I have to put in a little more effort."
