Chapter 167: Visit from Poseidon Island
Beihai caused waves due to the change of sea princess.
As for the West Sea, Poseidon Douluo has been away for a month and has not returned. No news has been received, and it has stirred up a storm.
Fortunately, Bo Saixi usually lives in seclusion, and few people can meet him on weekdays. The news is tightly blocked by the Seven Holy Pillars Douluo.
Now that there is no leader among the dragons, it is natural to choose a tall one among the short ones. Sea Dragon Douluo, the strongest among the seven holy pillars, becomes the talker.
After some searching, the information about the fierce battle at sea between You Chen and Bo Saixi that day was naturally not concealed.
Gathered together to change the succession of the Sea Princess, and inquired from some sea soul beasts about the news that a mysterious powerful soul master had recently killed three hundred thousand year soul beasts that attacked the mermaid clan's sea area on the sea. Sea Dragon Douluo has basically determined the development of the situation...
When he thinks of that terrifying possibility, Sea Dragon Douluo feels his body trembling slightly.
But...
‘I am the guardian of the Seven Sacred Pillars—Sea Dragon! How can you back down here! ? ’
Sea Dragon Douluo's eyes flashed with determination.
Faith and loyalty once again turned into his spiritual strength.
If the high priest has really encountered something unexpected, he must support Poseidon Island to continue its journey!
But before that...
'It must be confirmed what the strong man's attitude is towards us and Poseidon Island... In addition, there is such a huge thing in the North Sea. Something unexpected happened. If our Poseidon Island didn't send anyone to look for you, everyone would notice that something was wrong. I'm afraid that the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King will break through the barrier of Poseidon Island now. At times like this, you must show confidence...'
It's not like Sea Dragon Douluo has never thought of praying to the Sea God for another oracle. However, Bo Saixi had just performed this operation in Poseidon Temple not long ago. It will take a long time for the altar to be filled with the power of faith again. It won't be possible to restart the operation in a short time.
What's more, Sea Dragon Douluo has not succeeded to the position of great worshiper, so this approach is against the rules.
For faith, it is necessary to maintain this kind of solemnity and restrictions.
You can say that they don’t know how to adapt, but the program, content, and rules of religious sects cannot be changed suddenly in a short time, but require a long time to evolve naturally with changes in social relations and the process of cultural dissemination. of.
Otherwise, believers' recognition of the dogma can easily be shaken in the process, or even lead to sect splits.
And even if Sea Dragon Douluo wanted to inherit the position of Great Enshrinement, he couldn't just inherit it. You have never looked for your missing predecessor, the Great Priest. Just rising to the top like this feels like taking an opportunity to rise to the top, and it is difficult to win the trust of others.
Besides that, the biggest problem is...the succession of the Great Enshrinement is not just a nominal succession, but requires a ceremony to worship the Sea God to complete the inheritance of the position.
Such fluctuations cannot be hidden from the surrounding sea soul beasts.
In the past, the location of the great offering was changed in order to deter dangerous soul beasts like the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King who did not surrender to Poseidon and Poseidon Island, and to tell them that although the old great offering was old, there was a new one. The birth of young great worshipers is enough to restrain and intimidate them.
But it’s different now.
Bo Saixi is far from old enough to abdicate, and Sea Dragon Douluo is far from strong enough to assume the position of great worshipper.
On the contrary, it will make the sea soul beast realize that something is wrong with Bo Saixi.
So no matter what, this trip to the North Sea is inevitable.
And Sea Dragon Douluo knew that it was meaningless to talk about resistance in front of such powerful men.
As long as the mysterious and powerful man thought about it, even their group of Holy Pillar Douluo could only huddle in the Poseidon Temple. Even moving in the Poseidon Island would be life-threatening.
Unless they rely on outside power,...whether Poseidon Island can survive is a huge problem!
And what power can Poseidon Island borrow?
Sea Dragon Douluo immediately thought of Wuhun Palace and Haotian Sect, which are the only two forces with extreme combat power on the mainland.
However, the relationship between the former and them will not be mentioned. If you know that Bo Saixi is missing, it will be fine if you just come and take a bite.
And Haotian Sect? This sect has closed itself, and Tang Chen has gone to nowhere.
So in fact, they can't take advantage of it.
“This is what happened.”
Sea Dragon Douluo gathered the remaining six Holy Pillar Douluo and shared all the information, speculations and ideas in his hands with great seriousness.
“You are saying that the great worshiper has been defeated by the mysterious strong man who killed the evil killer whale king!?”
The one who respects and worships Bo Saixi, who is also a woman, the most! The Sea Girl Douluo raised her brows angrily, slapping the table and refuting: "Master Daxian is invincible in the sea! In this Douluo Continent, except for the great gods, how can anyone defeat her silently!?"
Several other Holy Pillar Douluo remained silent, but also showed similar expressions.
Sea Dragon Douluo’s expression darkened.
Actually, he didn't expect this situation.
As the strongest Holy Pillar Douluo, he is the one who can best understand Bo Saixi's power.
If he hadn’t personally explored and speculated on all the information along the way, he wouldn’t have believed it easily.
Sea Spear Douluo, who was firmly ranked second in strength, glanced at Sea Dragon Douluo and said calmly: "Okay, although it is indeed unbelievable, Hai Long is not a person who will target without aim. If even this premise cannot be determined, then this There is no need to continue the meeting."
Haixing Douluo also echoed in a deep voice: " If Lord Hailong’s conclusion is correct, then our life and death are at stake. Haenyeo, now is not the time to be emotional.”
“Tsk.” mouth, but seeing that everyone nodded slightly after the two Holy Pillar Douluo expressed their opinions, they stopped making any sound.
Sea Dragon Douluo nodded and said in a deep voice: "Through the information from the sea soul masters and sea soul beasts, it is very likely that the mysterious strong man has already controlled the mermaid clan and the North Sea. We must Find out the current attitude of the mermaid clan.”
He turned to look at Sea Lady Douluo: "The situation is not clear now. I have to go to the North Sea to find out what the mermaid clan or that mysterious strong man's attitude towards our Poseidon Island is now. I need you who have mermaid blood to contact me. "The Mermaid Clan."
"I understand."
Ama Douluo nodded solemnly.
Although it is very dangerous to go to Beihai here, the few people here are strong men with extremely firm faith and loyalty and will not retreat here.
Especially when it comes to the big offerings of respect, Haenyeo Douluo feels quite obligated to do so.
"Sea Dragon."
Sealance Douluo said: "This trip is dangerous and unpredictable. It is very likely that we will face a strong person who can defeat the Great Enshrinement. You are the strongest among us, and you should be in charge of Poseidon." Island, let me go."
After saying that, he glanced at the others and said with a stern expression, "You have no objection, right?"
"I have objections."
Sea Ghost Douluo said coldly: "If that mysterious powerful man really knows how to take action, no matter who goes, there will be a result. I think it is enough for Sea Girl Douluo to go alone. No need. As long as she does not come back within the specified time, this fact is enough for us to confirm the situation.”
Even Sea Girl Douluo, who was ready to die, was still so angry that his face turned blue and white when he heard Sea Ghost Douluo completely treat her as a tool: "Old ghost, what nonsense did you say? !? I really want you to accompany me!”
“Quiet!”
Hai Long Douluo stopped the argument that was about to break out and said in a deep voice: "I tell you what I think First of all, it is impossible for Haenyeo to go alone. In this period, every Holy Pillar Douluo is very important and cannot be abandoned easily. One day, if we really need to hide on Poseidon Island, that one When a mysterious powerful man or the Demonic Whale King of the Deep Sea comes, you can only resist by gathering the strength of seven people. "
This is true.
The area around Poseidon Island has formed a home field effect similar to the sanctuary in Saint Seiya after gathering the power of sentient beings for a long time.
The Seven Sacred Pillars and the Great Sacrifice can both receive certain power blessings around Poseidon Island. The Holy Pillar Douluo relies on the Holy Pillars, while the Great Sacrifice relies on the blessings of Poseidon Island itself and Poseidon Temple.
The blessings received by the Seven Holy Pillars are far less than those of the Great Offering, and they cannot directly call upon the divine power of Poseidon Temple like the Great Offering. However, on the other hand, they can rely on the same source of Holy Pillars to connect their powers with each other to form Special battle formation.
The seven Holy Pillar Douluo are united by the connection of the Holy Pillar. Although they are not as good as the large offering under the blessing of Poseidon Island, they can barely compete with ordinary Extreme Douluo.
Of course, this is only a case of frontal combat.
The reason why Sea Dragon Douluo is more afraid of mysterious and powerful people is because Extreme Douluo is more flexible than giant monsters like the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. And based on the hiding ability shown by the opponent, it is completely possible to defeat them one by one without fighting them head-on.
Therefore, if we consider the issue of hostility against a mysterious powerhouse, in fact, apart from relying on Poseidon, they basically have no countermeasures.
Whether we take this trip or not, it makes no difference.
Sea Dragon Douluo continued: "Moreover, we are only visiting the mermaid clan on this trip. According to the previous style of the mysterious strong man, he may not show up on his own initiative. But even if the mysterious strong man does not take action, the mermaids The strength of the clan cannot be underestimated. If there is any fight or conflict, only I, who is the strongest, can be sure to bring Ama back safely."
Finally, it was decided that Sea Dragon Douluo and Ama Douluo would formally form a group of sea spirit masters. The diplomatic team visited the North Sea.
……
"That's how it is, Lord Overlord. I'm very sorry for disturbing your practice."
In response to Liya's apology, You Chen waved his hand and said it was okay, and said: "The Sea Soul Master from Poseidon Island is here to visit. , It’s really not a trivial matter. Reporting this situation to me is what I asked you to do from the beginning.”
“Thank you, Lord, for your grace.” Liya still didn’t dare to overstep this point. Time gradually suppresses to near With an almost expressionless face, he said: "Lord Master, the spies of the Sea Sabrefish Clan have confirmed that the team is led by Sea Dragon Douluo and Sea Girl Douluo. With the current strength of the Mermaid Clan, it is not difficult to defeat them, but if you want to If you want to kill or keep them, there is no guarantee of success."
You Chen glanced at Liya speechlessly, when did the new sea princess become so murderous. Decisive?
He shook his head and said: "Liya, what image do I have in your mind? Since they came to visit according to etiquette rules, if they were to be killed like this, not only would it not be able to scare the monkeys, but it would also make the Those ethnic groups that originally relied on the mermaid clan are in turmoil. "
In fact, with You Chen's character, he doesn't care whether the vassal groups of the mermaid clan are in turmoil.
It is one of the laws of the world for soul beasts to devour each other and practice, but the soul beasts that prefer good and lawful are more inclined to absorb the essence of heaven and earth to practice.
The mermaid clan has no need to devour soul beasts. During this period, You Chen's training resources basically came from the hunting shares of the seven vassal clans.
It is naturally necessary to maintain the stability of these ethnic groups.
Moreover, during this period of time, in addition to consuming the cultivation resources of the sea to refine his body and digesting the experiences and insights from Bo Saixi, You Chen also began to secretly work on something in the North Sea - spreading faith.
In order to truly unite the faith of Douluo Continental people in the future, he used Beihai as a test field.
However, he didn’t know the specific laws of the divine world, and whether spreading his faith in the ocean would give Poseidon a reason to take action.
So he did not spread it widely, but first let some of the Sea Soul Beasts in the Crystal Palace start to believe in him.
You Chen doesn’t dare to do most of the things that plunder the Poseidon’s faith for the time being.
His current goal is just to see if he can sense the existence of the so-called mind power of sentient beings.
After many attempts, You Chen has found a good way - to build a statue.
I don’t know whether it is because he is not strong enough now, or for some other reason, he himself is not able to condense the power of sentient beings, or perhaps it has been condensed, but cannot be directly observed with the naked eye and spiritual consciousness.
However, through objects such as statues, the condensed power of sentient beings can be truly discovered.
The reason why he can confirm that this energy is the power of sentient beings' thoughts is naturally because he has pure divine power in his hand and can compare it accordingly.
A drop of pure divine power can be divided into 10081 rays of divine power. One ray is the smallest unit of divine power.
Under the observation of You Chen's spiritual consciousness, the sentient thoughts that have been condensed on the sculpture during this period of time are probably similar to the feeling that a ray of divine power gave him.
The pure divine power sent by the system can be used directly by him or distributed to others for use.
But the power of sentient beings on the sculpture is different. Only he can call it upon himself.
This means that the thoughts of these sentient beings are directly pointed at him.
Although he did not intend to waste his pure divine power for the time being, after discovering that there was already a way to gather the power of sentient beings' thoughts, You Chen no longer cherished the power of sentient beings' thoughts on this sculpture.
However, it is clear that these powerful sea soul beasts that are basically more than ten thousand years old have condensed the power of sentient beings, but they are only a few strands.
Of course, there are only a few reasons that can be thought of. You Chen didn't care much. It can regenerate anyway, so it doesn't matter if it's slower.
The pure divine power was only divided and consumed as a comparison. As for the power of sentient beings, You Chen had no scruples and used it all to try.
After trying to use it for a while, he soon discovered that although the energy quality of this sentient being's mind power is close to that of a ray of divine power, it is actually very different.
The most significant difference is...intensity.
With just a wisp, You Chen didn't expect to realize the omnipotence of divine power, such as adding years to his soul ring.
What he mainly tried was the effect of replacing or amplifying soul power with divine power and the power of sentient beings' thoughts, and there was an obvious difference.
What follows is the practice of simply using the power of sentient beings to perform soul skills, or as training materials to improve soul power and physical fitness.
After completing these experiments, You Chen's curiosity was satisfied for the time being. He temporarily put down the research on divine power and only focused on collecting the power of sentient beings.
He is now very curious about the situation where there are multiple statues, such as whether the sentient beings' thoughts will converge, or whether the range of his direct control of sentient beings' thoughts will be expanded...
For the time being, he just wants to Take good care of this three acres of land, and don't want to attract unnecessary attention from Poseidon, so you can develop comfortably for a while.
After all, the angel god who collected mainland beliefs is not still alive like the sea god. He can plunder the power of faith that was originally occupied by Wuhun Temple without any scruples, and even do it more exaggeratedly than the angel god of the past. Radiation range.
So what he and Liya said were his true thoughts.
It’s okay for Bo Saixi to take the initiative to mess with him. He has no intention of attacking Poseidon Island now.
"Does the Lord have such deep considerations?"
Liya's eyes lit up when she heard what You Chen said, and she nodded: "In this case, how do you need me to deal with them? It's showing toughness. Attitude, or pretending to be the same as in the past, being hypocritical and conciliatory? ”
You Chen smiled, walked towards the door of the retreat room, and said, "Since your practice has been interrupted, you might as well just come out for a walk. Liya, this time, I will personally entertain these two distinguished guests." "
As he said this, a hint of hidden malice flashed in You Chen's eyes.
……
"Lord Hailong, maybe things are not as you thought?"
Having entered the sea area controlled by the mermaid clan, Sea Girl Douluo smiled and said: "Look, the mermaid clan is not very generous in welcoming you. We? We even chose the island for the meeting. It’s not the underwater palace they’re more comfortable with, and it doesn’t look so solemn and formal, but I know that as a mermaid, this is actually a sign that they are willing to consider us.”
“It really is! Is this so?" Sea Dragon Douluo had a bad feeling.
Ama Douluo said with a helpless expression: "Oh, you just think too exaggeratedly. Let me just say, how could the great worshiper be defeated at sea? In my estimation, maybe, In fact, it's just because the enemy does have two hands, so he was injured and stayed temporarily. It’s just a matter of cultivating here! The reason why the mermaid family welcomed us so warmly is probably because the great worshiper came first! Look, doesn’t everything come together?”
While the two were talking, they had already entered the agreed island.
Led by a team of mermaid guards, led by two Holy Pillar Douluo, followed closely by a group of Poseidon Island soul masters, they officially arrived at the meeting location, an open-air courtyard in a huge manor that had been built in advance.
This island is not far from the Crystal Palace. Of course, this island is where You Chen lives and practices.
The size of this open-air courtyard is comparable to the area of an ordinary mansion. In a deep pond as huge as a lake, several beautiful mermaids are swimming happily, showing off their graceful dancing in the water. .
A few meters away from the pool, a mermaid wearing a golden crown and even her scales were more beautiful and delicate than those of the mermaids in the pond was facing away from them, standing silently like a snake girl. .
Ama Douluo's eyes quietly glanced at the mermaid performing like a dancing girl in the pond.
Ama Douluo's body was half mermaid's blood, and she was not in a happy mood when she saw these mermaids posing in the water like actors on a stage.
Even feeling a little offended.
Even if you are welcoming guests from Poseidon Island, there is no reason to perform such a performance at the expense of the dignity of your fellow humans, right?
She really wanted to ask the newly appointed queen how she became the sea princess. If she didn't know how to become the sea princess, then someone else would take the stage.
However, considering the purpose of this trip and the hidden danger, Sea Girl Douluo did not have an attack and silently glanced at Sea Dragon Douluo.
Although Sea Dragon Douluo was not able to empathize with the hidden meaning of this mermaid dance like Sea Lady Douluo, he still felt that it was a bit weird for Sea Princess to let her own kind show off here.
But compared to these, what he cared about more was the matter of the mysterious strong man. Seeing that it was the Sea Princess who appeared here, he felt relieved.
As the leader of this trip, of course it was not up to Sea Lady Douluo to speak. After giving Sea Lady Douluo a affirmative look, he took a step forward and solemnly said: "Your Highness, Sea Lady Douluo, whenever the Sea Lady Douluo The position of the princess is changing, and Poseidon Island will reconfirm its agreement with the sea princess and the mermaid clan. This is why we are here."
Shasha.
The fish tail squirmed on the soft and moist grass, and the fish scales rubbed against the green grass, making a gentle sound.
Liya turned around, revealing an alluring appearance that was like proof of the identity of the sea princess.
The calm face seemed to be indifferent to emotion. There was no fluctuation in it. Instead, it showed the majesty of a queen.
"The agreement between the mermaid clan and Poseidon Island has been destroyed since then."
In a calm tone, she said words that shocked everyone on Poseidon Island.
"This..."
Although Sea Dragon Douluo was stunned, he still calmed down his emotions and used his eyes to comfort Sea Lady Douluo, who could no longer restrain the irritation on his face, and asked in a deep voice: "If this is what Her Highness Sea Princess means, although it is regrettable, but we But I can only accept it. Before that, can I ask what the reason is?”
Ling Ling Ling~
Liya did not answer, just silent. Suddenly, there was a sound coming from the direction of the corridor connecting the manor house in the courtyard. There came the crisp sound of bells.
Poseidon Island and his party walked in from Haohaotangtang, the side door directly connected to the island and the courtyard, and did not pass through the main entrance of the manor. The owner of the voice clearly came from inside the manor.
Sea Dragon Douluo immediately frowned and looked, wanting to see which person from the mermaid clan who did not know etiquette suddenly barged in and interrupted an important meeting between the two forces. Maybe he could use this to question Sea Princess, in exchange for a certain amount of room for mediation.
Then... Sea Dragon Douluo's body began to tremble, cold sweat broke out uncontrollably, and his anger boiled uncontrollably.
With yesterday’s experience, I always feel like I will be shot in the next chapter... My driving skills are really terrible. I was wondering whether to mess up the order of some words. After all, as everyone knows, the order of words does not affect reading.
(End of this chapter)
