Chapter 49: Hell Training
Chapter 49: Hell Training
"I wonder what the boss is doing right now." Said Xie Xie as he was looking over the railing of the ship they were on.
He sends a glance toward Gu Yue who was staring out at the sea. They already figured Wulin wasn't going to ride the ship with them because of his motion sickness.
'I wonder what she's thinking right now.' Thought Xie Xie, as he walked over to Gu Yue.
"Are you ok?" Asked Xie Xie, causing Gu Yue to throw him a glance.
"... I guess." Said Gu Yue, without her usual snarkiness at Xie Xie.
"I wish he was here too. But nothing can be done about his motion sickness right now." Said Xie Xie as he too didn't feel like getting in an argument with Gu Yue.
"Right now?"
"Yea, I been researching on a way to alleviate or get rid of Wulin motion sickness." Said Xie Xie, as he wanted to take a drive or ride with Wulin.
Gu Yue was surprised at Xie Xie, she didn't think he would stop cultivating or training to try and help Wulin with his motion sickness.
"Don't give me that look. Whether the boss admits it or not, he really does care for us." Said Xie Xie as a pleasant smile started to bloom.
"I definitely want him to keep relying on us."
"I see." Said Gu Yue as she turns back to the peaceful ocean.
"I also hope you can rely on us too." Said Xie Xie as he was still looking over the polished rail.
"What?"
"I wish you would not just rely on Wulin but us too. Whether you wish to acknowledge it or not, we are your friends too. We will never say no to helping you, Gu Yue." Said Xie Xie, causing Gu Yue to instantly turn to him in mild shock.
"You're saying you would help me?"
"Of course."
"Even if it means you would be branded as a potential traitor to humanity." Said Gu Yue.
"What!" Said Xie Xie as he snaps his head to Gu Yue in surprise.
"... It's nothing." Said Gu Yue as she couldn't believe she even asked that. Xie Xie stared at her for a while before he smiled and said.
"Yes, I would."
Gu Yue turned to Xie Xie in surprised, as he was smiling kindly at her.
"Why?" Asked Gu Yue.
"Because we're friends. Even though we argue, even though we fight and even though we disagree with each other. I would like to believe we are friends." Said Xie Xie, causing Gu Yue to fall instantly in silence.
"Well anyway, I should go check on Yuanen." Said Xie Xie as he started walking away.
'Friends huh?'
'Sorry Xie Xie but I never thought of you all as a friend.' Gu Yue thought as she wore a bitter and mocking smile.
*"We are friends Gu Yue."*
'Damn it. Why does his words keep showing up.'
Gu Yue didn't comprehend what the hell she was doing anymore. She didn't know why she was entertaining Wulin help or why she was still here.
*" I don't care about the spirit beasts. I just want to stay with Wulin."*
'Damn you Na'er.' Thought Gu Yue. She hated Na'er for being so selfish and useless when it came to their goal.
'And yet, I envy her ability to decide so easily.'
*" I will help you."*
'When did things become so complicated?' Gu Yue thought as she observes the sky gradually turn dark.
"Attention! Attention!" The sound of a broadcast suddenly echoed in every cabin room.
"Greetings to all passengers aboard the S.S. Star Luo ocean liner. Tonight, we're hosting a grand banquet to welcome everyone. Please dress formally for the occasion. This is a social event to promote the long-lasting friendship between the two continents. Additionally, we're going to hold some exciting games. Please join us."
"Should I even go, it's not like he is even here." Said Gu Yue.

"What do you mean you lost them!" Roared Yun Ming as he was glaring daggers at the old man kneeling in front of him.
"I'm sorry, Pavillion Master. We saw them going into multiple building and then leaving. Then they didn't come out of one of them for a while. We got worried and went to go check but no matter how hard or long we check. There was no trace of them."Said the old man.
The Old Man trembles as he felt the intent pressure of Yun Ming glare and mental power leaking out. The whole Sea God Pavillion started to shake uncontrollably, as a direct result of his passionate anger.
"Calm down, Big Brother." Said Yali, as she gently put a hand on his splendid shoulder. Instantly the building stopped shaking uncontrollably and the old man didn't feel the stifling pressure impacting him anymore.
"Leave." Said Yun Ming, as he begins walking away with Yali next to him. The Old Man hastily got up to leave, not wanting to anger the Pavillion Master anymore.
Yun Ming and Yali walk around the Sea God Island for a while, until they reach a small hut. This was Na'er home that she said she lived in for the past years.
Yun Ming went into and look around with his expression changing. Yali went toward the bed to sit and called Yun Ming over to sit with her.
"She will be fine. You already said Tang Wulin had the strength of a Limit Douluo." Said Yali, as she leaned on Yun Ming.
"But that just his strength. Everything else is weaker than a Spirit Emperor."Said Yun Ming, as he was holding on to Yali.
"Dear, just have faith in both of them." Said Yali, causing Yun Ming to let out a sigh and nod.
'Boy, I swear if you let something happen to my daughter. I don't care if you are her brother or if your potential is great. I swear I will make you regret it.'

Tang Wulin was standing on the beach next to Na'er and Mu Ye, who bore a serious look on his face.
"Today is the last day" Said Mu Ye as he looks over Tang Wulin body. He appeared more muscular, with his body becoming more defined and lean.
Tang Wulin didn't use his GDK or Dragonslayer powers as he needed to be under life and death struggle.
After the tenth day, his life truly fell into grave danger as multiple sea beasts kept on attacking him and working together.
They even went as far, as to block off his way up to the surface and sneak attack him anytime he went down into the depths. While this was happening, his body was being broken down and remodeled up.
It felt similar to how his body would break down and change when he was switching to his Dragon Form. His bones, internal organs, and blood essence had turned into a brilliant gold hue but also some black and blue were mix into it.
Old Tang told him, his Dragonslayer powers and Golden Dragon King powers maybe correlating together to rebuild his body. He doesn't know what kind of changes their direct correlation will bring but it shouldn't be anything bad.
Another good thing was his soul power being increased and progressing. He could feel it was getting more potent and denser as the training goes on.
Before he left the Sea God Island, he had been at rank forty-six but after doing this training, it has already progressed to rank forty-nine.
"Today is the final hurdle for you. The time needed for the first stage of training cannot be calculated exactly. In other words, the forty-ninth day is just a standard benchmark. It either you martial spirit awakens now or we do another forty-nine days until you've completed the second awakening." Said Mu Ye, causing Na'er lips to glare at Mu Ye.
"Your joking right?"
"No."
Mu Ye didn't tell Tang Wulin and Na'er that the procedure Tang Wulin was going through was way more difficult. This was because Tang Wulin endurance was too monstrous and is body potential was absolutely amazing.
'It's like he is a spirit beast incarnate.' Mu Ye thought as he remembers Tang Wulin fighting all those sea beast and how well his body held up.
Tang Wulin body was too abnormal, the durability of it was far higher than what a Spirit Ancestor should have and that talking with using soul skills.
According to the Body Sect's ancient records, if a person could endure such a cultivation method more than ten times, his second awakening should be completed.
If it doesn't awaken after this then it would mean his martial soul was mundane without any ancient gene bloodline.
'That just bullshit.' Mu Ye thought as no one with this much potential could have a mundane and ordinary martial soul.
Hence why Mu Ye decided to go all out to make sure Tang Wulin is able to fully awaken his martial soul.
"It's do or die boy." Said Mu Ye as he pours a bottle of blood over Tang Wulin and threw Tang Wulin back into the sea with all of his might.
Tang Wulin went plowing through the water until he reaches the depths before he begins slowing down.
'What is he up to.' Thought Tang Wulin as he came to a stop and started to look around. He didn't see anything that was different from his last time.
It was then he felt a presence coming towards him. He saw most of the animals he fought for the past month swimming pass him and it was then he saw a school of sharks coming towards him.
Tang Wulin now knew why Mu Ye poured blood all over him, as he saw the shark swimming towards him. It was the Devilsoul Great White Sharks heading towards him and other types of shark heading toward him.
Tang Wulin smacks the first one away as it came to charge straight at him but then he had to twist his body to dodge the other.
The sharks noticing that charging at him one at a time wasn't working decided to revise their plan. They all charge towards him at the same time, causing him to have to defend against the rest of them.
'Is that all?'
Tang Wulin body was way stronger than when he just started, as he efficiently smashes all the sharks away. It was then something begin to change.
Tang Wulin eyes widen when he saw over five thousand sharks surrounding him. Not only that but saw other spirit beasts he fought before beginning to use their body to make a sphere around him.
All of the Devilsoul Great White Sharks open their mouth and then started firing balls of pale light towards him. Tang Wulin instantly summons his Blue Silver Grass to wrap around him to block the violent attacks.
Too bad for him that five thousand Devilsoul Great White Sharks didn't stop as the white ball of light kept being shot out.
BANG! BANG!
Tang Wulin could feel his body burning and getting bloody. Even with the Blue Silver Grass, he couldn't keep this up.
It was then Tang Wulin saw white light flash around him and the army of fishes. Then he saw darkness.

Tang Wulin eyes snap open as he stood up and started to check his surroundings. He notices he wasn't in the ocean anymore but in a lush forest.
He could detect visible light hitting him and for some reason, he wasn't wet from just being in the sea.
'This is new.' Thought Tang Wulin.
It was then a dazzling light appeared in front of him and begin to circle around him. It was a glowing ball of dazzling light that was mix with the color of the rainbow with two small wings on it.
It started circling around him and then move in front of him as if to tell him to follow it. Tang Wulin decided to follow the light as he begins moving farther into the forest.
His Blue Silver Grass appeared as it started to spread itself through the lush forest. Zeref appeared next to him but he too didn't know what happened after that brilliant flash of light.
After walking behind the glowing ball of dazzling light for a while.
They came upon a shimmering lake with a visible patch of lush grass in the middle of it and a direct pathway connecting it.
Then the glowing ball went to the middle of the lush grass and then blinded him.
Tang Wulin and Zeref look ahead, to see a figure appearing prominently from the dazzling light. It was a deer with a blade-like trim around each leg, which forms a point under each hoof. Its body was an odd mix of glossy green and white with it having a pale gold antler on its visible head.
There were multi-colored gems on the antlers as if they represent a magnificent rainbow. Its luminous eyes were elegant looking with it being multi-colored similar to the glittering gems on its antlers.
On its back was a grassy overgrown bush that connected with its tail. Each step the creature took caused the pristine area to shine and shimmer, as a multi-colored ring appeared on it.
Tang Wulin could feel intuitively his Blue Silver Grass shaking and moving around in excited.
The majestic creature gently turned its head toward Tang Wulin and smiled tenderly.
"Welcome, Child of Life."
