Chapter 33 Three Unparalleled Powers, Unrivaled in the Ocean!
As the image faded, the sky was instantly replaced by an endless expanse of azure.
"Splash—splash—"
'
The sound of waves crashing against the shore seemed to transcend the barriers of space, echoing clearly in everyone's ears.
The sound was initially as gentle as a lullaby, but in an instant it transformed into the roar of raging waves, carrying a salty yet refreshing sea breeze that swept across the entire world.
It was an aura even more vast and unfathomable than that of the Starry Sky Forest.
That is—the sea.
[Douluo Star - Top Ten Battle Power Ranking]
[TOP4 - Coming Soon!]
Azure light converged at the center of the sky, transforming into a pillar of the sea god that reached the heavens and the earth. Within that pillar of light, a peerless figure appeared and disappeared.
【TOP4: Poseidon】
[Position: High Priest of Poseidon Island, Spokesperson of the Sea God.]
[Cultivation Level: Level 99, Power Attack Type Limit Douluo (Demigod)]
[Martial Soul: Sea God.]
[Evaluation: The one who completed the Eight Trials of the Sea God, one of the three peerless Douluo standing at the pinnacle of the Soul Master world. On the high seas, she is synonymous with invincibility. Borrowing the power of the Sea God, her peak combat strength has surpassed mortals, touching the realm of gods!]
As the words appeared, the figure finally became clear.
She wore a bright red robe, the red color noble and elegant, embroidered with golden wave patterns.
She held a golden scepter, her long hair cascading down her back like a waterfall. Time seemed to have left no trace on her face; she remained breathtakingly beautiful, yet possessed a sacred majesty that made people afraid to look directly at her.
Poseidon Island.
The moment Poseidon's figure appeared in the sky, the entire Poseidon Island erupted in excitement.
"It's the High Priest! It's His Highness the High Priest!!"
The Seahorse Sacred Pillar, the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar, the Sea Spear Sacred Pillar—the seven guardians of the sacred pillars, these seven titled Douluo who usually command respect in their respective regions, now knelt down in unison towards the direction of the Sea God Temple, like devout believers who had seen a true god.
"Greetings, High Priest! Long live the High Priest! Long live the Sea God!!"
In every corner of Poseidon Island, countless Sea Soul Masters and islanders were moved to tears.
In their hearts, Poseidon was not only a powerful figure, but also the incarnation of the sea god and the pillar of their faith.
"Do you see that? That's our High Priest! Fourth in the land! What an honor!"
"Invincible on the high seas! Even the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall would have to bow down!"
The cheers were like a tsunami, wave after wave, shaking the entire island.
Wuhun City, Hall of Offerings.
There were no cheers, only a deathly silence.
Beneath the enormous angel statue, Qian Daoliu stood with his hands behind his back, gazing up at the red figure in the sky that had haunted his dreams his entire life.
His eyes, which were usually calm and deep, as if they had seen through the vicissitudes of life, were now rippling with emotion.
It was a recollection, a regret, and an undeniable bitterness.
"Poseidon————"
Qian Daoliu murmured the name softly, his voice slightly hoarse.
His thoughts seemed to instantly return to decades ago.
Back then, he was full of vigor and ambition, traveling to Seagod Island with Tang Chen. At that time, they were both the pride of their time, believing themselves to be invincible.
Until they met her.
That woman, standing atop the waves, her red dress fluttering, exuding formidable power.
He closed his eyes, and the resolute words of Poseidon from years ago flashed through his mind: "You can only marry me if you become a god."
"Actually, I know that was just an excuse she used to reject me." Qian Daoliu opened his eyes, a hint of desolation in his gaze.
"The person she has in her heart has never been me, but that guy Tang Chen."
When Tang Chen was mentioned, Qian Daoliu's eyes became complicated. There was jealousy between rivals, as well as nostalgia for a mutual appreciation.
"Tang Chen, you won her heart, but why did you betray her?"
As Qian Daoliu looked at Poseidon's majestic yet troubled face in the sky, a nameless anger rose in his heart.
"Where the hell have you been? So many years without a trace, leaving her alone on Seagod Island in despair—if you were dead, so be it, but if you're alive, I, Qian Daoliu, will ask you on her behalf: Was it worth it?"
Douluo Continent, various powerful forces.
The inclusion of Poseidon on the list has caused a shock to the continent no less than that of the previous martial spirit rankings.
"Level 99 — Limit Douluo — Demigod —"
Inside the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, Emperor Xueye felt his mouth go dry as he looked at these words.
Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"The ocean is invincible—these four words carry immense weight."
Sword Douluo Chen Xin stroked the Seven Kill Sword in his hand, his eyes surging with fighting spirit, but it quickly dimmed.
"If this were on land, I might be able to withstand a few of her moves, but at sea—I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to withstand even one."
Inside the Poseidon Temple.
The noise and discussions from the outside world seemed completely unable to penetrate the heavy temple gates.
Poseidon sat quietly in the main seat, looking at her reflection in the sky through the open door.
Her expression was calm, as calm as a stagnant pool.
She seemed completely indifferent to the ranking of "Fourth in the World" and the title of "Invincible in the Ocean".
"It's just an empty reputation."
Poseidon gently shook her head, her voice clear and cold like a spring.
She slowly stood up, her long red dress trailing on the ground with a rustling sound.
She walked to the entrance of the main hall, her gaze passing over the layers of trees and the boundless sea, and landing on the distant continent.
That was a place she had never set foot in her life, yet it haunted her dreams.
"Tang Chen————"
The two words that came out of her mouth were filled with endless tenderness and sorrow.
She reached out her hand, as if trying to grasp the shadow of the person in the void.
"You once said, 'I will not return until I become a god.'"
Poseidon's eyes were slightly red, and her eyes, which had seen through the ways of the world, were now filled with tears.
"But Tang Chen, do you know what? I've never cared whether you're a god or not."
"All I care about is whether you're still alive."
"Decades have passed—beauty fades, youth is fleeting. Although I am protected by the power of the sea god and my appearance remains unchanged, my heart has long since aged while waiting."
She remembered the days when the three of them stood side by side, Tang Chen's hearty laughter, and the resolute look in his eyes when he made his promise.
"That coward Qian Daoliu only dares to guard his angel temple. But you, with ambitions soaring to the heavens, want to seek that elusive divine position."
Poseidon sighed softly, the sea breeze ruffling her long hair, making her appear exceptionally forlorn.
"Where are you? Are you lost on the path to godhood, or have you forgotten that there's a foolish woman waiting for you on Seagod Island?"
