Chapter 267: The Marvelous Use of the Sea God's Protector
Nami opened her eyes again, and the Sea God's Protector reappeared in her hands. A faint blue light circle unfolded, enveloping everyone inside.
"This is the first ability of the Sea God's Protector. It can protect us in an invisible state, and even a strong spirit master's spiritual power cannot detect us."
Xiao Wu curiously looked around and found that everyone seemed to be inside a water curtain.
"Is that all? Is it just an invisibility ability?"
Upon hearing this, Nami scanned the room and focused her gaze on Zhu Zhu Qing.
"Master Zhu Qing, I apologize!"
Nami retracted the Sea God's Protector, then quickly threw it toward Zhu Zhu Qing. Before she could react, Nami locked her in place.
Zhu Zhu Qing froze for a moment, then began to struggle with all her might, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.
"Master Zhu Qing, this ability is called the Universe Locking God Shield. It can immobilize enemies whose spiritual power is much weaker than mine. It's a control skill, but it can't cause any harm."
Once the restraint was lifted, Zhu Zhu Qing immediately regained her movement. She looked at the Sea God's Protector in Nami 's hands, feeling a lingering fear. This move was a nightmare for agility-type fighters.
"Wow, that's an amazing skill. Isn't this invincible? Nami , are you just going to use the Sea God's Protector against anyone you meet?"
Ning Rong Rong exclaimed in awe at the Sea God's Protector's power, feeling extremely envious. Although she was a support-type soul master, she also had the heart of a warrior!
Ning Bei shook his head and said in exasperation, "Didn't Nami just say it only works on people whose spiritual power is much weaker than hers?"
"Master is right. Xiao Wu has spiritual-type soul skills, and Rong Rong has a head spirit bone. That's why I tried the skill on Master Zhu Qing," Nami explained.
"So, does that mean the Sea God's Protector can't hold you, Xiao Wu?" Xiao Wu proudly rubbed her nose, looking as if she wasn't afraid of even an artifact, which made everyone laugh.
"Indeed, the skill has its limitations. However, the Sea God's Protector also has two offensive skills. One is an area attack called the Sea God's Storm, which is similar to my fourth soul skill. The other is a single-target attack called Universe Breaks the Devil. We still need to test how powerful it is."
"Wah, how envious! This feels like absorbing two 100,000-year spirit bones!"
Ning Rong Rong's eyes turned red with envy. If she could use the Sea God's Protector, she would declare herself a combat-type soul master.
She imagined summoning the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to buff herself and then using the Sea God's Protector to attack. The picture in her mind was simply too beautiful.
"Alright, this is Nami 's fortune. And didn't I say that if Nami succeeds, you'll gain quite a bit too?"
"Oh? What benefits can we get, Ning Bei?"
The three girls all looked at him, full of expectation.
"The Sea God's Protector is the key to the Sea God's Trial, and the Sea God's inheritance is located on Sea God Island above the ocean. You can also follow Nami to Sea God Island to take the Sea God's trial."
"Ah? Can we also inherit the Sea God's position? What will Nami inherit?"
Ning Bei glared at Xiao Wu in annoyance. This girl was thinking nonsense again.
"What are you imagining? Only those who pass the Sea God's Nine Trials can inherit the Sea God's position. If you can pass the Six or Seven Trials, that's already good enough. Even getting a few soul rings with increased years from the Sea God will be quite beneficial."
"I see... I thought we could inherit a god position too."
Xiao Wu's face immediately drooped. She had risked her life for what? Wasn't it all for the elusive level 100 God position? Now that she saw the opportunity slip away, landing in her sister's hands, it was impossible not to feel a bit disappointed. Even Ning Rong Rong and Zhu Zhu Qing showed expressions of regret.
But that wasn't the end. Ning Bei's next words completely broke Xiao Wu's defenses.
"Rong Rong and Zhu Qing, I'm confident I can help you inherit a god position. As for Xiao Wu, I can't guarantee that."
"Really? Brother!"
Both Ning Rong Rong and Zhu Zhu Qing immediately showed joy, while Xiao Wu trembled with anger.
"Why? Why can Rong Rong and Zhu Qing do it, but I can't?"
"Zhu Qing, did you secretly promise Ning Bei to give him little kittens?"
Xiao Wu, who had been happily imagining the possibility of becoming a god, suddenly turned bright red, screamed, and lunged at Xiao Wu.
"Ah! You little brat, what nonsense are you talking? I'll tear your mouth off!"
"Exactly! Why else would my god position be unguaranteed? Hahaha, don't scratch me, I'm sorry!"
The room was filled with warmth. Ning Bei awkwardly rubbed his nose and cleared his throat.
"I just found a suitable god position for them. Don't be in a hurry. Maybe we'll find one suitable for you too."
Hearing this, the two girls straightened up and tidied their clothes before standing again.
"Is that so?"
Upon hearing that there was a suitable god position for her, Ning Rong Rong's eyes lit up as she eagerly asked, "Brother, what's the god position for me? Is it the Queen Mother of the West, like you told me when I was little?"
Ning Bei thought to himself, this girl remembers the "Monkey King" story? He raised his eyebrows and teased, "So, Rong Rong wants to give birth to seven children?"
"Ah? Do I need to give birth to the Seven Fairies to inherit the Queen Mother of the West's position?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Rong Rong's little face twisted into a knot. She didn't want to miss out on the god position, but she was also worried that she couldn't give birth to the Seven Fairies…
Seeing his sister actually thinking about it made Ning Bei nearly burst out laughing. He quickly realized that she had been tricked, and she stomped her foot, feeling embarrassed and angry.
"Brother!"
Ning Bei's stories about the rise of the gods seemed to have manifested, which made her subconsciously believe that the "Monkey King" story was true, and that the Queen Mother of the West indeed had seven daughters. How could she not think about it more?
"Alright, alright, when the time comes, you'll naturally know what god position is waiting for you."
It would be embarrassing for him if, in the end, he didn't inherit the Nine-Colored Goddess and the God of Speed. So, he'd better keep quiet for now.
The two girls, although feeling anxious, saw that Ning Bei didn't want to say more, so they didn't press the matter further.
"And Xiao Wu, didn't you say you couldn't condense soul rings by yourself anymore? Sea God Island is a great place for you. After completing the trial, you might even receive a godly soul ring, so you won't have to worry about finding soul rings to absorb."
"Really?"
Xiao Wu, who had been quietly mourning, suddenly became full of energy. Her eyes lit up as she looked at Ning Bei. This was the best news she had heard all day.
After making sure they were prepared to rest for a few days and then head to Sea God Island, Ning Bei called for Ye Yin Zhu and Long Nian Bing.
After informing them of the Sea God's trial and setting a departure time, he allowed them to prepare.
"I still need to make a trip to Sunset Town. I can't forget about my woman."
With that thought, Ning Bei set off toward Sunset Forest.
