Will!

The Sea God's Light...

What is the essence of this ability?

After personally experiencing the oppressive feeling that the Sea God's Light brought to his heart, Zhou Qing had already gained some understanding of it.

Belief?

Divine power?

All of them!

But the most crucial part is belief, a belief in conquering everything!

This belief, carried by faith and sourced from divine power, allows both humans and Sea Soul Beast to feel its magnificence and vastness wherever the Sea God's Light shines.

First comes awe!

Then give in!

Finally, that inexplicable sense of oppression will cause people to lack self-confidence, and subtly influence the creatures being illuminated, gradually leading them to believe in Him! To believe in the existence of God!

And the Mind-Sense Qi Field is also a kind of belief!

The conviction within Zhou Qing's Mind-Sense Qi Field, a mere mortal, clashed violently with the conviction contained in the Sea God's Light left in the mortal realm by the Sea God through the Sea God Trident!

Amidst the astonished gazes of the Sea Maiden Douluo, and the Sea Princess, Li Na, Li Ya, and other mermaids who arrived later, the golden Sea God's Light was clashing with the Mind-Sense Qi Field unleashed by Zhou Qing.

The tangible golden Sea God's Light clashed with the intangible Aura Field of belief, and they were evenly matched!

"How is this possible!?"

The Sea Maiden Douluo couldn't believe it.

Although this Sea God's Light was only borrowed from the marks of the Sea God's Fourth Trial, and the amount was not large, it was still the Sea God's Light! The will contained within it was the will of the Sea God!

Although Zhou Qing's first and Second Spirit Ring were both at the thousand-year level, he did not possess the aura of Deity and was not the inheritor of any other Deity.

This means that the opponent unleashed energy similar to the Sea God's Light simply by relying on their own will, and was even able to contend with the Sea God's Will within it!

Who on earth is this person?!

Ariel, Tang San, Romantina, and Xiao Wu were also trembling, but not out of fear. Under the influence of Zhou Qing's invisible and intangible Mind-Sense Qi Field, their Qi and Blood and Soul Power were surging like the Great Sea, and they were gradually shaking off the influence of the Sea God's Light.

"The will of the Great Sea... This time it didn't choose the wrong person!" Ariel murmured, feeling the conviction emanating from Zhou Qing, and couldn't help but tremble with excitement.

For someone at the mere Soul Grandmaster level to have such unwavering faith, even capable of contending with the Sea God's faith contained within the Sea God's Light, is truly remarkable!

Bite!

The clash between the Mind-Sense Qi Field and the Sea God's Light created a spark in the surrounding area, which then instantly spread across the Sea God's Light.

"Snort!"

The Sea Maiden Douluo groaned, staggered back several meters, and a trickle of blood escaped from the corner of her mouth.

It wasn't that Zhou Qing's Mind-Sense Qi Field was shaking, but rather that the belief within the Sea God's Light broke free from the Sea Maiden Douluo's control and actively resisted Zhou Qing's will.

The sparks ignited by the clash of these two beliefs touched the souls of Sentient Creature present, making them seem as if they were witnessing a scene of confrontation between humans and gods.

Above the vast ocean, a colossal Blue Gold phantom stood, radiating a holy golden light that spread towards Zhou Qing below.

Compared to that enormous body, Zhou Qing's figure was incredibly small, only reaching the toes of the Blue Gold phantom.

"Sea God!"

Ariel gritted her teeth!

But the other mermaids, the Sea Princess, the Sea Maiden Douluo, and others instinctively showed reverence, Bowing Body and prostrating themselves before the figure in the Sea God's Light.

Even in their prostrate state, this scene of confrontation remained in the merfolk's minds, making them even more respectful.

However, in that scene, Zhou Qing's figure was small, but his belief was firm.

The Sea God's Light, like ocean waves, layer upon layer, one after another, wave after wave, continuously pounded against the Qi Field Power surrounding Zhou Qing.

However, the invisible and intangible Aura Field surrounding him was like a Sea God, and no matter how powerful and vast the Sea God's Light impacted it, it could not penetrate it in the slightest.

On the contrary, under the constant impact of the Sea God's Light, Zhou Qing's belief became even stronger, and his Aura Field seemed to radiate multicolored light, becoming increasingly dazzling. But in the end—

Within the multicolored halo, a touch of crimson quietly emerged, then instantly covered the entire body.

Fiery hot!

Turbulent!

That splash of crimson dazzled everyone outside, including the mermaids.

This belief originated from Zhou Qing's previous life.

Absolutely!

He hadn't experienced those turbulent years firsthand, but he had studied history and witnessed the precarious lives of ordinary people on the Douluo Continent. At that moment, he fully remembered his mission and his original intention!

[Who I am?]

I am a builder and successor of socialism!

In Falling Star City, facing the pressure from Sword Douluo, Zhou Qing truly realized his inner thoughts and for the first time made up his mind to change the world.

Now, facing the oppression of a Deity, the Sea God's Light sought to invade his mind and influence his heart, but instead, it only strengthened Zhou Qing's will. He even recalled his childhood in school, when he was first tied with a red scarf and swore an oath under the flag:

Study hard! Exercise hard!

Live a wonderful life!

At the same time--

We must not forget to build a better home!

This moment!

In that illusory world, the Sea God seemed to be enraged, no longer using the gentle Sea God's Light to "educate" Zhou Qing. The ocean beneath his feet surged and the azure sky was covered with dark clouds at this moment, as if to erase the rebellious will and belief in Zhou Qing's mind!

However, no matter how fierce the wind and rain or how turbulent the waves, Zhou Qing stood firmly in the Great Sea, unmoved, staring straight at the pale blue figure.

Though no words were spoken, it seemed to Taunt the Sea God's powerlessness!

You are a god!

They may possess unparalleled divine power!

But!

Your beliefs and your will are no stronger than those of ordinary people!

If you find yourself unable to influence others in a gentle way, you have to vent your power... How can that be considered divine?

They were just stronger people; you shouldn't call them beasts.

At this moment, the Sea Princess, the Sea Maiden Douluo, and the other mermaids also began to waver slightly in their belief in and will of the Sea God within the Sea God's Light.

Especially for Li Ya, the mermaid who learned the truth about Poseidon's ascension to Divine Throne 20,000 years ago from Ariel, her golden Bloodline Power resonated with the Great Sea, and her beautiful filter of the Sea God shattered in an instant.

Perhaps, this was also influenced by the powerful belief emanating from Zhou Qing...

Within that illusion, the Blue Gold phantom seemed to possess true thought, and actually spoke, "Mortal! Your will is as vast and vibrant as the Great Sea, possessing infinite possibilities! Are you willing to accept my inheritance and become the new sea Sea God of the Great Sea?"
