Chapter 67: The Lewd and Shameless Sea God, Shattering the Divine Halo
It wasn't until evening that Lin Chen finally helped Dugu Yan successfully condense her poison pill. The entire process had been utterly torturous.
When it came to meridian circulation, Dugu Yan was practically hopeless—seven orifices open out of eight, yet completely clueless about the last one.
It sent Lin Chen straight back to his previous life, helping his deskmate solve math problems. No matter how detailed his explanations were, it always ended with, "I didn't quite understand that. Can you explain it again?"
Dugu Yan was in exactly that situation.
Fortunately, Lin Chen's understanding of the poison pill method had already reached the pinnacle. Otherwise, Dugu Yan would have needed at least several more days before successfully condensing her poison pill.
"Sister Yan, how does the poison pill method feel?"
After helping her complete the condensation, Lin Chen slowly stood and asked about her experience.
"It's very strong. Thanks, little brat."
After forming the poison pill, Dugu Yan could clearly feel that her soul power had become far more condensed than before.
Most importantly, she could now perfectly control her toxins, gathering every trace of poison into a single point before unleashing it in an explosive burst. For her current level, this was effortless—without the slightest difficulty.
"Good. Sister Yan, shall we go for a night stroll in Heaven Dou City?"
"I haven't had my fill of Heaven Dou City yet. You can show me around."
Up until now, Lin Chen still hadn't eaten, and his stomach would rumble from time to time, leaving him quite helpless.
With no other choice, he decided to head out to find food. And what could be better than searching for delicacies with a beautiful companion by his side?
"Sure, little brat."
"Come on. Your big sister knows Heaven Dou City like the back of her hand. I'll take you on a proper tour."
The moment she finished speaking, Dugu Yan grabbed Lin Chen's hand and briskly ran toward the bustling streets of Heaven Dou City.
Early the next morning.
Without Bibi Dong's interruption, Lin Chen woke up quite early.
On this fresh morning, just as he summoned his diary, he noticed that today's entry actually had a restricted theme.
That puzzled him greatly, and he began thinking about why the diary would occasionally impose topic limits.
"Could it be set by the diary copy holders?"
A guess formed in Lin Chen's mind, and he felt it was likely close to the truth.
Soon after, his gaze fell upon the theme displayed on the black diary copy:
"The Sea God's True Face."
As for Sea God Poseidon, Lin Chen believed he could sit at the same table as the Asura God and Tang San.
The things he had done were simply disgraceful to the title of God. Not only had he colluded with the Asura God, but he had also privately interfered with Qian Renxue's Angel God Trial.
Thinking about the manipulations Poseidon had made during Qian Renxue's divine trials made Lin Chen feel nauseated—no different from Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.
[Today's restricted theme asks me to write about The Sea God's True Face.]
[This Sea God naturally refers to Sea God Poseidon, not the later Sea God Tang San.]
[As for Poseidon, my evaluation is: lewd, shameless, hypocritical, a complete scum among deities. Slightly better than the Asura God, at least not as disgusting as him.]
On Sea God Island.
Bo Saixi held her diary copy, intending to see how this transmigrator Lin Chen would evaluate the Sea God.
But the very first lines detonated like a bomb.
"How could the Sea God she revered possibly be such a God? How could she accept that?"
Before she could even finish processing her thoughts, the diary continued updating.
[As for why I say this, it's because what Poseidon did in the original story was simply inhuman.]
[First, as a God of the God Realm, he should not have interfered with the development of the lower world.]
[Yet Poseidon knowingly violated the rules, secretly intervening multiple times to save Tang San, attempting to use him to crush Spirit Hall, all for the sake of seizing the faith of the Angel God.]
[Second, arbitrarily interfering with other inheritors' divine trials. That's outright trampling the laws of the God Realm, a lawless criminal.]
[But most importantly, the tricks he used while interfering were utterly lewd and shameless enough to sit at the same table as Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.]
[As a God, he actually resorted to such despicable means—placing lust-filled illusion realms within other candidates' trials, attempting to make them fall in love with his successor, Tang San. That is utterly disgraceful, completely unworthy of the title of God. What difference is there between that and a perverted man?]
[Third, aiding tyranny—colluding with the Asura God, harming the interests of the Douluo Continent and its countless living beings, leading to tens of thousands of years of calamity caused by evil soul masters.]
[During Tang San's growth, he was extremely hypocritical. The most damaging act he committed against the continent was destroying Slaughter City. From then on, evil soul masters ran rampant, harming the continent's inhabitants for tens of thousands of years.]
[And as Tang San's protector, the Sea God allowed such behavior. Someone like that is utterly unworthy of being a God.]
[In summary, this so-called noble and grand Sea God has a soul filthy beyond measure. He merely possesses great power, earns mortal worship, and toys with all living beings—that's all.]
After reading the diary, Bo Saixi could not believe this was the true face of the Sea God.
At that moment, she suddenly understood Bibi Dong's feelings back then. The sensation of shattered faith left her unable to face reality.
"So this was the Sea God she had worshipped all her life?"
Every day, she had been praying to a future tyrant.
She needed time to process this. Lin Chen's words were like a thorn embedded in her heart.
But at that very moment, the chat group had already exploded.
[Pope of Spirit Hall: Heh. So this is what a God is? In my view, even the thugs of Spirit City have better character than this so-called noble Sea God.]
[Pope of Spirit Hall: A God actually interfering in others' divine trials and even inserting lust illusions? That's downright perverse. Just a shameless creep.]
[I Sleep Every Day: Haha, didn't I say it? These so-called deities are nothing special. Sometimes their greed is even greater than ours.]
[I Sleep Every Day: We simply lack their overwhelming power. If I possessed the strength to crush everything, I'd let the God Realm taste the twilight of the gods.]
[Green Grass: Exactly! These deities even forbid soul beasts from becoming gods. Isn't it just fear and jealousy of us soul beasts?]
[I Am a Little Princess: Hearing Lin Chen put it this way, I feel like I could become a grand figure in the eyes of the masses, too. Isn't it just about packaging yourself and occasionally lording over the continent?]
[I Am a Little Princess: I could do it too.]
[I Am a Little Princess: Sisters, once I ascend to godhood through the diary copy, just watch how I toy with all living beings.]
After Lin Chen described the Sea God, the women finally saw through the façade of these seemingly grand deities.
Behind that halo, their true souls might very well be filthy beyond redemption.
"The divine filter has shattered."
A God was nothing more than someone who possessed overwhelming power.
