The design of the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar Platform is very simple; it is just a square platform.

However, the Sacred Pillar here is different from others. It is more like a statue than a pillar.

The Sea Maiden Holy Pillar is entirely white jade in color. The maiden kneels on the Sacred Pillar platform, her hands clasped together in front of her chest, bowing towards the direction of the Sea God Hall.

Although it is just a sculpture, the devout expression on its face is incredibly lifelike.

The person depicted in this statue is the first Sea Witch who once followed Sea God Bo Saixi, in his conquest of the ocean.

At the edge of the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar Platform, Lorelai sat reclining, gently slapping the surface of the Sea in the Sea with her enormous fish tail.

Her pretty face had a pair of large, sky-blue eyes that were fixed on the man walking towards her.

"Su Cheng, what do you want to do?"

At this moment, Lorelai's expression was solemn, and there was no trace of innocence on her face.

At the same time, the other six Sacred Pillar Douluo also emerged from the surrounding forest one after another.

"They're all here?" Su Cheng didn't answer immediately, but looked around and nodded with a smile. "That's perfect, saves us the trouble."

Upon hearing this, Lorelai's heart sank, and her unease intensified.

She was exceptionally gifted, possessing the innate ability to read minds.

Although he never saw through Su Cheng's thoughts, he had a strong premonition.

First, the Seven Sacred Pillars underwent an undetectable change, then a powerful figure arrived from the mainland, and today, that person even released his aura, causing the High Priest to leave the island.

At this moment, Lorelai realized that something was wrong, so she summoned the other Sacred Pillar Douluo in advance.

She believed that if Su Cheng came to Sea God Island for any reason, he would definitely come to her first.

That is indeed the case.

The Sea Maiden Holy Pillar was the Sacred Pillar Su Cheng was most familiar with, so naturally he would start his work from there.

Looking at the composed Su Cheng, Sea Dragon Douluo said in a deep voice, "Su Cheng, do you know that according to the rules, you are not allowed to set foot on Sea God Island right now?"

With the passing of the previous generation of Sacred Pillar Douluo, among the current Seven Douluo, Sea Dragon Douluo has the highest cultivation level and the strongest strength. He also underwent the most difficult Black Level Six Trials back then.

Now that Bo Saixi is gone, the group of Titled Douluo naturally take him as their leader.

Upon hearing this, Su Cheng looked at Sea Dragon Douluo and asked with a smile, "Who set this rule?"

"Why pretend you don't know?" Sea Dragon Douluo frowned even more. "This is a rule set by the Lord Sea God."

"Where is the Sea God now? Tell him to come and tell me. If he says I can't go to the island, I'll turn around and leave right now."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Su Cheng, what's wrong with you?!"

"..."

Hearing his almost mocking words, the other Titled Douluo couldn't help but rebuke him.

Actually, they didn't really want to have a conflict with Su Cheng.

His status and position were extraordinary, far surpassing those of ordinary Sea Spirit Master who were expelled from the island.

Not to mention the miraculous deeds he had performed that were known to everyone, his special status as Bo Saixi's personal disciple was also known to everyone present.

"Haha." Su Cheng suddenly burst into laughter. "So you guys are really something. The Sea God has been gone from this world for so long, yet you still cling to the rules from ten thousand years ago. Sea God Island has been established for so many years, have the countless people on the sea changed at all compared to before?"

Su Cheng reached out and a longsword appeared in his hand. "Let me tell you. Whoever is stronger, their word is law."

The next moment, the azure Tidal Domain spread out.

The powerful suppressive force instantly enveloped the seven Titled Douluo, rendering them unable to move.

As Su Cheng approached step by step, the expressions of Sea Dragon Douluo and the others changed drastically.

At this moment, they couldn't even muster the slightest thought of attacking.

This feeling was exactly like when I faced the High Priest Bo Saixi.

No, it's even more terrifying.

Because at this moment, Lorelai was no longer able to draw upon the power of the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar!

The Tidal Domain released by Su Cheng directly severed the connection between the Sea Maiden Douluo and the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar.

It's important to know that the reason why the Sacred Pillar Douluo on Sea God Island are so powerful and are called the Sacred Pillar Guardian is because they have a mysterious connection with the Seven Sacred Pillars of Sea God Island.

This connection was so strong that even Bo Saixi, the High Priest, could not prevent it.

Beneath the Sacred Pillar, the Sacred Pillar Douluo can recover their Soul Power, withstand attacks, and thus defeat opponents far stronger than themselves.

It can also activate the Sacred Pillar, issuing Sea God Trial to Soul Master and allowing them to communicate with each other.

"You... how did you do that..." Sea Dragon Douluo stared at the scene in disbelief, then glanced at the shocked and bewildered Lorelai.

His lips parted slightly, and he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "Why are you so strong..."

He couldn't understand it.

He had never been Sea God Trial, nor had he ever received the Sea God's blessing.

How could Su Cheng, at the age of over thirty, have cultivated to such a terrifying level of skill?

Su Cheng ignored the other party's question.

He didn't want to hurt these people, but he also didn't want to waste time talking nonsense with them.

His target was the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar behind these people.

"Su Cheng!"

Just then, a soft and melodious voice came from the side.

Su Cheng paused slightly, then turned to look.

Lorelai's fishtail had now retracted, transforming into long, slender legs, which were concealed by her black dress.

Why do this?

She stared at Su Cheng, her eyes no longer lively and innocent, but filled with complex emotions such as disappointment, surprise, confusion, and disbelief.

Unlike the other residents of Sea God Island, she did not have an almost fanatical faith in the Sea God.

But this does not mean that she was disloyal to the Sea God.

On the contrary, the Sea Witch Clan have always been the most loyal servants of the Sea God since ancient times.

However, the long period of growth has prevented this little mermaid princess from fully maturing; she is restless and loves to play.

But when it came to the crucial moment, her belief in protecting the Sea God remained unwavering.

Su Cheng sighed inwardly, not wanting to say anything more to her.

He understood Lorelai and knew about the Sea Witch Clan; some things were beyond words, a difference in ideology.

"There's no reason why, I just did it because I wanted to."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Cheng slashed his longsword diagonally, and the terrifying sword intent, accompanied by the sword light, instantly reached the statue of the Sea Witch.

A brilliant golden light instantly appeared on the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar, enveloping the white jade statue.

The sword light and golden light dissipated simultaneously, leaving the Sea Witch statue unharmed.

The Titled Douluo watching all breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

The sword strike Su Cheng contained a terrifying sense of annihilation, and even those who hadn't directly encountered its edge felt their hearts pound with fear just watching it.

Fortunately, the Sacred Pillar was protected by divine power and contained the power of faith from the Sea God's followers, so it was not so easy to destroy.

Su Cheng chuckled lightly and turned to leave amidst the surprised gazes of the crowd.

The next moment, on the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar Platform, the statue of the Sea Witch shattered with a crash, and cracks appeared on the Sacred Pillar below, which broke completely a few breaths later.

"..."

Seeing this scene, all seven Sacred Pillar Douluo felt dizzy, their faces turned slightly pale, and cold sweat trickled down their temples.

Someone wanted to say something, but for a moment, they felt as if a fishbone was stuck in their throat, unable to control themselves.

Only Su Cheng understood that the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar he had just seen was actually all bark and no bite, and its power of faith had long since been exhausted.

His sword strike wasn't completely blocked at all.

Under the influence of the Innate Sword Qi, the power contained within the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar became completely unbalanced in just a few breaths, and it was only a matter of time before it shattered.

"W-what should we do..." Sea Ghost Douluo swallowed hard and looked at the others with difficulty.

"Go and inform the High Priest to come back. Su Cheng is too powerful; we can't resist him at all," Sea Horse Douluo said in a deep voice.

They had no intention of gathering their subordinates.

The Sea God Warrior have limited strength. They have witnessed the strength that Su Cheng just displayed, and those others would just be cannon fodder if they came.

The other party had clearly shown them mercy, but Su Cheng was by no means indecisive. He could even cut down the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar without hesitation. If he were really provoked, it might cause unnecessary casualties.

"The High Priest can't possibly be unaware of what's happening here. We'd better not get separated." Sea Dragon Douluo shook his head, rejecting Sea Horse Douluo's suggestion. "If the situation becomes serious, she will come back. I'm sure that opponent at sea is just as formidable."

"That's right." Sea Spear Douluo agreed. "If the High Priest wants to leave, no one can stop him. It seems that everything is still under control for now."

In the hearts of these people, Bo Saixi was no different from a god.

Moreover, this was on the open sea, and they couldn't imagine that Bo Saixi might lose.

Sea Dragon Douluo gritted his teeth, "Let's follow them first."

After saying that, she turned to look at Lorelai, who was standing dejectedly under the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar, and said, "Sea Witch, no one could have predicted this would happen. Now is not the time for you to think about it. Come with us."

He didn't really have much of a grudge against Lorelai.

Su Cheng's actions took everyone by surprise.

Even Bo Saixi probably didn't expect this to happen.

Moreover, given the strength Su Cheng has just demonstrated, whether Lorelai was on guard or not before is actually of little significance.

Since that's the case, why blame each other?

Su Cheng naturally knew that the Sacred Pillar Douluo were following behind him, but he didn't care.

These people pose no threat to him.

With the destruction of the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar, the defensive capabilities of the other Sacred Pillar have been reduced to a new level.

It didn't take long for him to cut down the remaining six Sacred Pillar, including the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar and the Sea Star Holy Pillar.

By this time, all the functions of the Seven Sacred Pillars had become obsolete.

Su Cheng also doesn't need to worry about dealing with the various threats posed by the Seven Sacred Pillars after he ascends to the Sea God Hall.

It didn't take him long to cross the forest and arrive at the Ring Sea outside Sea God Mountain.

"Su Cheng!"

Just then, a sharp shout came from behind; it was Sea Dragon Douluo.

Seeing that Su Cheng was really preparing to climb Sea God Mountain, these people finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"Aren't you afraid of disappointing the High Priest by doing this?!"

With the destruction of the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar, it's understandable that the other Sacred Pillar couldn't be defended either.

After all, with one less Sacred Pillar, it is difficult for the Seven Sacred Pillars to form a close connection. Not only is their effectiveness greatly reduced, but any attempt to forcibly form an array will be full of flaws.

However, Sea God Mountain is completely different in nature.

That place is a forbidden area of Sea God Island, and a sacred place in the hearts of all members of Sea God Island.

The Sea God Hall Sea God Mountain represents the majesty of the Sea God!

Even if they didn't think Su Cheng could cause any real damage here, they still couldn't accept even a small amount of destruction.

"Do you know how much the High Priest values you! In her heart—"

However, before he could finish speaking, Su Cheng raised his right arm while his back was to them.

Immense pressure suddenly descended.

"I don't want to kill you, so don't test my patience," Su Cheng said calmly.

At the same time, a faint Killing Intent swept across the air like a sharp blade, hanging between their necks. "If you insist on making pointless sacrifices, I don't care."

"..."

"Gulp..."

Sea Dragon Douluo's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks.

The immense terror brought on by the life-or-death situation silenced everyone, leaving no one daring to utter another word.

Without stopping, Su Cheng flew across the Ring Sea and arrived directly at the foot of Sea God Mountain.

"Sea God Mountain, it's been a long time since I've seen it."

With a casual sigh, he began to climb the mountain.

The Sea God's Light can no longer stop him.

His Innate Power flowed throughout his body, silently resisting the Sea God's Light.

The so-called Sea God's Light is an extremely concentrated Soul Power combined with the power of faith. Compared to ordinary Soul Power, it is indeed extraordinary, but it is far inferior to the level of Innate Power.

As he walked, he looked up at the majestic and sacred temple on the mountaintop.

Having lived on Sea God Island for so many years, Su Cheng had never actually seen the Sea God Hall up close.

The most recent time was when I felt the Sea God's Light and took the opportunity to condense my Seventh Soul Ring.

However, at that time, he was actually quite far from the Sea God Hall.

Sea God Mountain is not very high, with only 1,001 steps in total. If it weren't for the Sea God's Light blocking the way, anyone could easily climb it.

Before long, Su Cheng arrived in the Sea God Hall.

Here stand enormous stone pillars, each carved with a variety of patterns.

Those were countless powerful Sea Soul Beast that had fought alongside the Sea God, many of which he couldn't even recognize.

On the Ring Sea, the seven Sacred Pillar Douluo looked at Su Cheng was on the mountaintop, with worried expressions.

For Titled Douluo, seeing this distance is not difficult.

"..." The group looked at each other in silence for a long time.

It was Sea Ghost Douluo who spoke first, "When exactly will the High Priest return? What exactly does Su Cheng intend to do?"

After saying that, she looked at Lorelai, who was standing at the back of the group, with a somewhat anxious expression, "Sea Witch, aren't you and Su Cheng very close? I used to see you two spending all your time together. What's wrong with him today?"

Lorelai frowned upon hearing this, feeling equally uneasy.

She had been pondering this question repeatedly on her way here.

She was shocked to discover that she had never truly understood Su Cheng.

Even when they formed the Bright Cult together, compiled doctrines together, and broke the rules of Sea God Island together, it was mostly just for fun.

Although some things felt a bit off, I never thought they would have a significant impact.

But what the other party did today was completely beyond her expectations.

That sword strike, which effortlessly severed the Sea Maiden Holy Pillar, shattered the last vestige of hope in his heart.

It wasn't until that moment that she truly realized that she had probably unintentionally made a huge mistake over the years.
