Chapter 53: Rewarding the Sea God with Nine Trials? Poseidon was stunned: Bypass me and let Poseidon become the Sea God?!
Qian Daoliu knew that he bore the inheritance of the Angel God, destined to become the Angel God's guardian, forever unable to escape the shackles of divinity, and forever unable to truly become a god.
Therefore, Qian Daoliu could only watch helplessly as Tang Chen left, watching Poseidon focus all her attention on the man pursuing the position of god.
He left Sea God Island in sorrow and returned to the Spirit Hall.
To distract himself from the pain in his heart, to prove that he was no less than Tang Chen, he began to devote all his energy to the construction of the Spirit Hall.
He married and had a son, Qian Xunji, trying to fill the emptiness in his heart with the warmth of family.
But he knew in his heart that no matter what he did, he could not truly forget Poseidon.
She was like a mark branded deep in his soul, which could never be erased.
Thinking of this, Qian Daoliu suddenly felt a little sad.
Just now, during the review, Tianmu had exposed the process of his son Qian Xunji's death.
He had always believed that Qian Xunji was the future hope of the Spirit Hall, the successor he had painstakingly nurtured.
But now, he realized that his son was utterly despicable and shameless, committing such heinous crimes.
He felt immense disappointment and anger, and also profound sorrow.
He didn't know what he had done wrong to deserve such a fate.
His lover had left him, and his son had utterly disappointed him.
His life seemed to be a grand tragedy.
"Sigh..."
Qian Daoliu sighed deeply, his face filled with weariness and helplessness.
He turned and looked at the papal throne in the center of the hall, a symbol of the Spirit Hall's highest power.
At this moment, Bibi Dong sat regally on her throne, her figure exuding unparalleled majesty and power.
In the recent celestial reckoning, Bibi Dong's rewards even surpassed his, the guardian of the Angel God.
This made Qian Daoliu uneasy.
He knew that Bibi Dong had always coveted the power of the Spirit Hall, wanting to completely control it.
Now, her strength had surpassed his, undoubtedly increasing her bargaining power.
For the sake of the Spirit Hall's stability, to avoid internal turmoil, he could only choose to endure for the time being.
He sighed silently, hiding all his emotions deep within.
"Perhaps, this is my destiny,"
Qian Daoliu murmured to himself, his voice filled with helplessness and sorrow.
He was old, unable to stop the tide of time.
The only thing he could do now was to do his best to protect the Spirit Hall, to protect everything he cherished.
Even if it meant enduring inner pain, even if it meant temporarily bowing to Bibi Dong.
For the Spirit Hall, he was willing to give everything.
Even if it would cause him even more pain.
But once Qian Renxue inherits the position of Angel God, she will be able to surpass Bibi Dong.
Even if Bibi Dong later becomes the Rakshasa God, the two are still mother and daughter.
This could allow the Papal Palace and the Hall of Worship to achieve a balance.
However, they can't contact the Angel God now.
Qian Daoliu rubbed his temples and sighed softly.
He sighed deeply, his face filled with exhaustion and helplessness.
He turned around and looked towards the Papal Palace.
At this moment, Bibi Dong was sitting on her throne.
Even though Tianmu had previously exposed
Bibi Dong's scandals, her strength had also increased dramatically, and no one dared to express any dissatisfaction with her.
Qian Daoliu felt bitter inside and could only hopefully think:
"Perhaps, I can make the list too?'
After all, his martial soul, the Six-Winged Angel, is no weaker than the Sea God's.
Now that the Sea God's martial soul is on the list, there's no reason why his Six-Winged Angel shouldn't be!
However, Qian Daoliu wasn't sure if it would be him or Qian Renxue on the list
…
Above the sky, golden light shone brightly once more, drawing everyone's attention.
[Review complete, rewards distributed!]
[High Priestess of Seagod Island, Poseidon, is hereby rewarded for her devout faith in the Sea God and her selfless dedication to protecting Seagod Island!]
[Reward One: The Nine Trials of the Sea God, activated!]
[The original eight trials of the Sea God have been automatically completed.
[Ninth trial: Slay the 990,000-year-old Deep Sea Demon Whale King and pull up the Sea God's Trident to achieve the position of Sea God!]
[Reward Two: Sea God's Divinity, bestowed!]
[Gaining the Sea God's divinity allows perfect control over the Sea God's power and the ability to directly pull up the Sea God's Trident!]
Boom—!!!
The golden characters on the celestial canopy exploded like thunder in the minds of every Soul Master on the Douluo Continent!
The Nine Trials of the Sea God!
Slay the 990,000-year-old Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
Pull up the Trident of the Sea God!
Achieve the position of Sea God!
Each of these words was enough to make the entire continent tremble!
...
Sea God Island.
Poseidon was filled with unprecedented shock and ecstasy.
She had originally thought that her greatest achievement in this life was to protect Sea God Island and wait for the successor of the Sea God.
She had only initiated the Eight Trials of the Sea God; her mission in this life was to wait for the one to initiate the Nine Trials and then sacrifice herself to him.
But now, the celestial canopy had bypassed the Sea God and directly bestowed the Nine Trials upon her!
Moreover, it had directly judged the first eight trials as complete!
More importantly, the bestowal of the "Divinity of the Sea God" allowed her to perfectly control the Sea God's divine power and directly pull up the Trident of the Sea God!
This meant that she would no longer need the successor of the Sea God; she herself could become the Sea God!
"Sea God…Sea God…"
Poseidon murmured, tears blurring her vision.
Sixty years of waiting, sixty years of protection, sixty years of solitude…
At this moment, all her sacrifices had been rewarded!
She could finally be more than just the guardian of the Sea God; she could become the true Sea God!
She could use her own power to protect this ocean, to protect everything she loved!
Thinking this, Poseidon embraced Tang Chen tightly beside her.
…
God Realm, Sea God's Temple.
Sea God Poseidon sat upon his throne.
He had been observing the celestial phenomena of Douluo Continent through his divine sense.
When he saw the celestial phenomena bypass him, bestowing upon Poseidon the Nine Trials of the Sea God and granting her divinity…
Sea God Poseidon was utterly stunned!
The trident (a manifestation of himself) in his hand even trembled slightly from his shock.
"This…how is this possible?!"
Sea God Poseidon abruptly stood up from his throne, his face filled with disbelief.
He was the Sea God!
He is the supreme ruler of the oceans of Douluo Continent!
The Nine Trials of the Sea God were personally set by him!
The divinity of the Sea God is the core of his divine position!
The Trident of the Sea God is the symbol of his divine power!
But now, this mysterious celestial canopy has bypassed him entirely, directly bestowing upon Poseidon everything that should have been under his control?!
