Chapter 97 Poseidon, the Sea God
Of the six, Zhou Yu was the one that Seahorse Douluo was most interested in.
"Soul Saint level, huh? Let me see just how high a test you can get from Lord Sea God!"
As Seahorse Douluo once again activated his soul power, he unleashed the sixth Sea God's Light of the day.
The blue light shone brightly, gently bathing Zhou Yu.
However, strangely, after the blue light enveloped Zhou Yu's body, it did not change color as quickly as the others before it did, remaining blue, but the light became increasingly intense.
This was the first time Seahorse Douluo had encountered such a situation, and he didn't understand why the blue light hadn't changed.
Suddenly, the color of the pillar of light enveloping Zhou Yu changed dramatically.
Blue, white, yellow, and purple—these four colors flash in turn, disappearing in an instant. The speed at which they change is so fast that it dazzles the eye, making one feel as if they are in a bizarre and wonderful world.
Even the transformation from purple to black is only a fleeting moment, leaving no trace.
Immediately afterwards, the black magic runes surged up with unimaginable speed.
"Oh my god, is this another top-level assessment?"
Seahorse Douluo discovered that his heart could no longer withstand such stimulation.
As the guardian of the Seahorse Pillar, not only he, but even all seven Pillars combined, had never experienced such a special scene.
The deep black demonic rune leisurely traversed two-thirds of the height of the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, its color suddenly changing to a shocking blood red.
Instead of stopping at its previous limit, the crimson demonic runes suddenly erupted with unstoppable force, soaring into the sky and instantly reaching the top of the Seahorse Sacred Pillar, displaying boundless majesty and power.
The entire Poseidon Island seemed to tremble as the red light of the Seahorse Pillar shot into the sky, while the other six enormous blood-red pillars of light also shot into the sky.
Seven beams of light converged at a single point in the air. The next moment, the crimson color faded, and from that point of convergence, an extremely brilliant golden light descended from the sky.
At this moment, everything seemed to have been paused, falling into a state of ultimate tranquility.
Only where the sky meets the sea, a dazzling beam of light descends from the heavens like a deity, becoming the sole focus of this tranquil world.
The golden light had only one destination: Zhou Yu, who stood beneath the Seahorse Sacred Pillar.
It was as if something inside his body had been touched.
Then, nine square golden light curtains appeared out of thin air.
These light screens, like golden shooting stars, floated directly into his brow.
Although Zhou Yu was mentally prepared, he still couldn't suppress his excitement. He pondered to himself, "This is... the Nine Trials of the Sea God?"
Instantly, a huge amount of information flooded into my mind.
Zhou Yu felt a special energy fluctuation that was like a sudden enlightenment, and his whole body felt as if it were immersed in a cool liquid, which was indescribably comfortable.
He unconsciously opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of turbid air, which was the turbid air that the golden light forced out of his body, expelling all the impurities.
Finally, all the golden light converged in one place, right in the center of his forehead.
The golden light coalesced into a golden trident symbol.
This golden trident gave Zhou Yu a sense of majestic nobility.
Just then, in the sky...
A red dot of light slowly enlarged, as if the space was gently stirred, instantly distorting and then returning to normal.
In an instant, a figure appeared out of thin air before the Seahorse Sacred Pillar. Her figure was graceful and flawless, her whole body was tightly wrapped in a dazzling red robe, and her long sea-blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall to her shoulders.
Her face was gentle, and she was about thirty years old, but her beauty came more from her extraordinary temperament—noble yet elegant, warm with a touch of gentle warmth.
In her slender right hand, she tightly gripped a three-meter-long golden scepter. The gold was no different from the radiance that had just bloomed in the sky. The scepter was covered with mysterious and unpredictable runes, and at the top was a sharp, spear-like rhomboid protrusion. Five inches below it, a dazzling golden rhomboid gemstone was inlaid, shining brightly.
If judged solely on her appearance, she is undoubtedly a rare beauty in the world, and in terms of temperament, no one can match her.
Even Pope Bibidon was slightly inferior in terms of presence.
What is most striking about her are her clear, ocean-blue eyes, so deep they seem to see through eternity. The love and vicissitudes they contain far exceed what a thirty-year-old woman could bear, making one wonder what stories and years are hidden behind those eyes.
"Greetings, High Priest!"
Seahorse Douluo bowed slightly and paid his respects to the woman in red.
The woman in the red robe smiled slightly, and the sea within the sea seemed to ripple because of her smile.
Her gaze swept around, and everyone present seemed to feel that she was looking at them.
Her gaze finally settled on Zhou Yu.
To be precise, it was fixed on the golden trident mark on his forehead.
"I've waited over a hundred years, and finally, in my twilight years, I've met you!"
As Zhou Yu listened to her voice up close, he immediately felt his heart race.
It wasn't because of her beauty, but because her voice was filled with a touch that came from the depths of her soul.
Zhou Yu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "She is the Sea God Douluo—Poseidon."
He snapped out of his daze and respectfully bowed to the Sea God Douluo, who represented the highest authority on Sea God Island: "Junior Zhou Yu greets Senior!"
Poseidon looked directly at Zhou Yu and said solemnly, "Zhou Yu, remember this: from this moment on, no one on Poseidon Island is worthy of your respect! Including me."
Zhou Yu also stared at Poseidon, his gaze clear and unwavering.
Poseidon turned to face Seahorse Douluo and said in a deep voice, "Euya, immediately convey my decree. These six distinguished guests are honored guests of this island until they complete the Sea God's test. No one may neglect or offend them. Except for not helping them complete the test, meet their conditions as much as possible. They shall stay in your Seahorse City. Also, summon the other six for a meeting at the Sea God's Temple tomorrow."
"Yes."
Seahorse Douluo Ouya responded with utmost respect. Although he hadn't seen this Grand Elder for ten years, on this Seagod Island, Poseidon was the supreme being.
"Distinguished guests, please follow me."
Seahorse Douluo raised his hand in a gesture of invitation.
Just as Zhou Yu and the others set off, they heard Tang San walk up to Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo, bow almost ninety degrees, and respectfully say, "Junior Tang San greets Senior! My great-grandfather's name was Chen."
Poseidon's voice held a hint of surprise: "You're Tang Chen's great-grandson?"
Tang San replied respectfully, "Yes."
A hint of wistfulness flickered in Poseidon's deep blue eyes: "Time flies! Even his great-grandson is already so grown up."
After a moment, Poseidon continued, "Tang San, come with me to the Sea God's Temple! I... have something to ask you."
"Yes, Poseidon-senpai!"
Tang San responded and then followed behind the other person, slowly walking towards the Sea God Temple.
"I never expected that the mistress would know the Sea God Douluo!"
Dai Mubai gazed at Tang San's receding figure and murmured to himself.
Oscar, standing beside him, said, "Poseidon Douluo knows his great-grandfather! Let's go and rest first."
Zhou Yu walked at the back, his gaze fixed on the direction Poseidon and Tang San had gone, secretly wondering, "What on earth is that little punk up to..."
