Sea God Island's Defenses / Breach Sea God Island, Blanket It with Fire
When the Soul Bone finally merged perfectly with her, information about its skills clearly appeared in her mind. Ning Rongrong slowly opened her eyes, and a bright and surprised smile bloomed on her face once again.
This Head Soul Bone, produced by a 100,000-year-old Extreme North Blizzard Bear, is an exceptional specimen with both ice and spirit attributes! It grants her two powerful Soul Bone Skill.
The Ice Snow Divine Light, condensing extreme cold and spiritual power, shoots out a beam of icy blue light from the eyes. This light not only possesses an extremely strong spiritual impact, capable of instantly disrupting or even severely damaging the opponent's Sea of Consciousness, but also contains terrifying freezing power, capable of freezing and slowing down any Soul Power or energy it touches to a certain extent.
The Glazed Illusion Realm is based on the user's powerful spiritual energy and utilizes the ice and snow attributes of the Soul Bone to create a realistic yet illusory ice and Glazed Illusion Realm realm. Enemies within this realm will have their five senses severely disrupted, lose their sense of direction, and may even see illusions of their deepest fears or desires, causing them to lose their composure.
The appearance of this 100,000-year-old skull represents a qualitative leap in Ning Rongrong's strength.
Feeling the surging spiritual energy in her mind and the two powerful new skills she had acquired, Ning Rongrong's confidence soared. She looked at Li Bai, who was protecting her, and smiled sweetly, "Brother Li Bai, this time the gains have been enormous! I feel like I could help you fight ten people now!"
Chapter 266 The Defense of Sea God Island
Everyone was working hard to improve, Qian Xunji was deeply moved.
Then...
Continue pressing.
His gaze fell upon the Worship Hall, upon his elderly father, Qian Daoliu, who was always ready to sacrifice himself for the inheritance of the Angel God, and he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
What goes around comes around!
The old Harden who used to be able to hang himself up and beat himself is now old.
Then, with a crooked smile, he said, "Old man, how about I resurrect you in the future? You could reluctantly become my follower."
Worship Hall, Qian Daoliu, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes. Upon hearing the familiar tone and incoherent words, a vein throbbed on his forehead.
Very well, this wise (mentally challenged) son is back!
"Get out!" Qian Daoliu snapped irritably, his voice echoing in the empty hall.
"Remember to call me Lord God!" Qian Xunji completely disregarded his old father's dying struggles and made the decision on his own.
The thought of the old man who had been so dignified his whole life having to follow him around in a submissive manner, respectfully calling him "God" made Qian Xunji unable to stop smiling, and he even let out a "hehe" laugh.
What a filial and good son I am!
Oh, and those old comrades of Father's in the Worship Hall can't be left out either; they have to be all there, neatly arranged. Sigh! I bet Old Deng would be moved to tears if he knew how much he "cherished old friendships" and "arranged" everything so perfectly for his old friends!
Xiao Xue would be very happy if her deceased grandfather suddenly appeared in front of her.
That's perfect!
He tucked this "important matter" into his heart with satisfaction.
Immediately, he covered his head, gently tapped his temples, and when he opened his eyes again, all the wisdom and emotional fluctuations in those golden eyes had disappeared, leaving only a cold and ruthless gaze looking down upon all living beings.
He glanced indifferently in the direction of the Worship Hall he had just left, frowning slightly, somewhat unable to understand why "himself" was always so fixated on such trivial "little things".
Isn't the most important thing right now to attack Sea God Island, and then unify the human world, and even the planned Soul Beast Realm?
Why are your thoughts wandering back to such trivial things?
················································
Sea God Island.
The Spirit Hall Empire's massive fleet of Soul Tool, like a floating mountain of steel, has already besieged the city.
Bo Saixi, the high priestess of Sea God Island, stood atop the highest reef on the shore, golden scepter in hand, her long, azure hair and magnificent robes billowing in the sea breeze. She gazed upon the massive, gleaming steel warships, contrasting them with the wooden sailboats along the Sea God Island's coast. Even with her composure, a flicker of astonishment and curiosity crossed her eyes.
The changes in the outside world seemed to far exceed her expectations.
Although... she has never been outside...
But she maintained absolute authority and confidence. Her clear, cold, and sacred voice resounded throughout the entire Sea God Island and reached the ears of every Soul Master on every Spirit Hall Empire warship. "People of the Spirit Hall Empire, the Sea God is merciful. Considering this is your first offense, if you retreat now, Sea God Island will forgive and forget. Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless and ensuring you suffer the same crushing defeat as before!"
Bo Saixi had ample confidence. In naval warfare, the Sea Soul Master held an absolute advantage in terrain.
The ocean is their home turf, and all the Sea Soul Beast here are their allies. Even if they are slightly inferior in level, they can turn the tide with the help of the ocean.
In her view, it was a pipe dream for the Spirit Hall Empire's Soul Master, who were used to the land, to want to conquer Sea God Island, which was surrounded by the sea. In the previous attack, she didn't even have to take action herself; she defeated the Spirit Hall's army with just the Seven Sacred Pillars and even killed the Spirit Hall's Titled Douluo Elder.
On the flagship's deck.
Tian Yue wore a well-tailored white and gold-trimmed imperial officer's uniform, which accentuated her tall and dashing figure. A multi-functional Soul Tool belt cinched her waist, holding several portable, long-range soul tools. Her lower body was clad in slim-fitting trousers for ease of movement—she had originally wanted to wear a skirt, but Pope Qian Xunji had mercilessly called her a "fool," questioning whether she wanted to go to war or "deliver benefits" to the enemy.
After hearing Bo Saixi's confident warning, Tian Yue showed no wavering or hesitation.
She raised her right hand and swung it forward decisively.
"Target: Coastal fortifications and Soul Master gathering points along Sea God Island!"
"All ships fire! Open fire!"
The command was instantly transmitted throughout the entire fleet via the soul-guided communicator.
The next moment, armor plates slid off the sides of the massive ship, revealing countless cannons beneath, engraved with complex soul-guiding runes and gleaming with dangerous energy!
These hidden Soul Tool Turret quickly adjusted their angles and precisely locked onto the direction of Sea God Island.
"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM--!!!"
A deafening roar instantly drowned out the roar of the waves! Countless Soul Cannon, trailing blazing flames, tore through the sky like a storm, carrying a destructive aura, and rained down upon the peaceful and serene Sea God Island!
······································
The attack launched by the Spirit Hall Empire without any prior warning or negotiation took even the High Priest of Sea God Island by surprise for a moment.
However, Bo Saixi was, after all, a level 99 Peak Douluo, a veteran of countless battles. Her surprise did not affect her reaction. Almost at the same moment Tian Yue set off, her vast and boundless Soul Power surged around her!
"Buzz--!"
With a solemn hum, an enormous phantom suddenly appeared behind Bo Saixi and quickly solidified! It was a majestic figure clad in azure divine armor and wielding a massive Golden Trident, surrounded by endless waves and the light of faith—the true form of the Sea God's Martial Soul Avatar!
A colossal Sea God Phantom stood above the Sea God Island, its vast divine power spreading out like the tide, as if the power of the entire ocean had gathered here, reflecting the light of the Seven Sacred Pillars below, forming an indestructible barrier of faith.
Countless devout believers on the island, witnessing this miraculous scene, knelt down in excitement, placed their right hands on their chests, and bowed deeply.
Their eyes were filled with fervor and trust, firmly believing that the Lord Sea God would, just as he had driven away the ferocious Sea Soul Beast and calmed the storms countless times in the past, completely drive away these audacious invaders!
However, faced with the overwhelming pressure of the Sea God that would inspire awe in any Soul Master, Tian Yue's golden vertical pupils showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, they ignited an even more intense fighting spirit and... disdain!
In her mind, which had been completely reshaped by Qian Xunji, only the Six-Winged Angel god represented by His Holiness the Pope was the only supreme, powerful, and holy true god in the world!
All other gods are nothing but God of Evil heretics who steal faith and bewitch people!
"Playing tricks! A mere Sea God dares to display his divine power before the Angel's Glory?!"
Tian Yue's arrogant shouts echoed across the battlefield. Far from being intimidated by the Sea God Phantom, her fighting spirit only intensified.
·········································
Sea God Island is far more than just an isolated island on the surface.
The reason it can remain mysterious and transcendent in the eyes of mainland Soul Master, and stand firm against the storms and Ferocious Beast of the endless sea, is precisely because of its layered, three-dimensional defense system, which can be described as an insurmountable barrier.
The first layer, the Seven Sacred Pillars Domain, is the outermost layer covering the entire island and is also the most well-known defense. Seven enormous Sacred Pillar stand in seven key locations on the island, each guarded by a Sacred Pillar Guardian whose strength has reached the level of Titled Douluo.
They can not only fight with the power of the Sacred Pillar, but also jointly activate the powerful Sea God Barrier, forming a giant energy shield that covers the entire island, enough to withstand large-scale external attacks and severe weather phenomena.
Beyond the Seven Sacred Pillars' domain lies a special sea area surrounding the core Sea God Mountain — the Circular Sea.
This sea is no ordinary water; it is filled with the pure Sea God's Power. During the assessment, the Circular Sea will automatically transform into an absolute forbidden zone, making it impossible to fly over. The powerful anti-air law will force any target attempting to fly to fall. The underwater world is also full of undercurrents and divine power barriers, making it difficult to pass by stealthily.
Most importantly, the use of any Soul Skill is prohibited within the Circular Sea; forcibly using them will result in a backlash from divine power. This forces intruders to rely solely on their purest physical abilities and instincts to pass through, greatly limiting the strength of the vast majority of Soul Master.
The Circular Sea itself is already a massive defensive fortress, and within it dwells a powerful guardian— the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Demon Soul Great White Shark King, Xiao Bai, and his entire clan. They are not only part of the Sea God Trial but also the loyal guardian beasts of Sea God Island. Any entity attempting to cross the Circular Sea without permission will face the relentless annihilation of this top-tier Sea Soul Beast legion.
Only by successfully breaking through the Circular Sea can one reach the true core of Sea God Island — Sea God Mountain. Climbing the famous Sea God Stairs is itself an ultimate test of will and strength. And at the end of the stairs lies the final forbidden zone— the Sea God Temple atop Sea God Mountain.
This place is not only the sacred site where all major ceremonies and decisions are held on Poseidon Island, but also the final place of inheritance for the Nine Trials of the Sea God, containing the supreme power and will left by the Sea God in the human world. Any outsider who steps into this place will face the purest pressure of the Sea God and... the Sea God High Priest, the peak Douluo Poseidon at level ninety-nine.
At this moment, the Spirit Hall's fleet is facing a defense system that can be described as the most advanced on the continent, constructed by a Peak Douluo, seven Titled Douluo, a divine power forbidden zone, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast legion, and a place of divine inheritance.
·············································
Under the joint guidance of Bo Saixi and the seven Sacred Pillar Guardian, the defensive system of Sea God Island, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was fully activated.
The seven colossal Sacred Pillar standing on all sides of the island simultaneously erupted with dazzling light, their blue-gold radiance soaring into the sky, like seven giant pillars supporting the heavens and earth.
The immense Soul Power intertwined with the power of devout faith, transforming into massive ripples of Soul Power that spread outwards. Above Sea God Island, a nearly transparent blue barrier slowly emerged, upon which flowed profound runes, emanating a heart-pounding aura of stability.
The Soul Cannon fired by the Spirit Hall fleet rained down on the barrier, unleashing deafening roars and blinding flashes of light. The energy shockwaves from the explosions rippled violently across the barrier's surface, yet they could not tear it apart; all the destructive power was kept out by this seemingly thin but actually indestructible barrier.
Tian Yue hovered in mid-air, with the phantom of the Golden Crocodile King roaring behind her. She looked at the huge barrier that covered the entire island, her golden vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and her brows furrowed tightly.
The way the barrier's energy operates, the faintly visible rune structure... gave her a strange sense of familiarity.
"This seems..." she murmured to herself, a hint of uncertain surprise in her voice, "Somewhat similar to the structure of Soul Tool!"
Although it is far more complex, larger, and more sophisticated than any Soul Tool she currently knows, its core principle, especially the way of guiding, amplifying, and forming a stable field through specific patterns, is remarkably similar in underlying logic to the Soul Tool technology that His Holiness the Pope is vigorously promoting the research and development of!
This discovery stirred up waves in Tian Yue's heart. The Soul Tool civilization in the outside world had long since been broken, with only the most basic Space Soul Tool technology being passed down sporadically.
His Holiness the Pope, through his unparalleled wisdom and power, managed to restart the research on Soul Tool over the past decade or so, regarding them as the cornerstone of the Spirit Hall Empire's future development.
She never expected that this secluded and seemingly isolated Sea God Island would preserve such a complete and powerful giant barrier technology, similar to Soul Tool!
A feeling of anger welled up inside me.
In her mind, deeply influenced by Qian Xunji's ideas, His Holiness the Pope's restart of the research on Soul Tool was for the benefit of the empire, to promote the progress of civilization, and was a great undertaking that would benefit the country and its people and shine for all ages!
Sea God Island, despite possessing far more advanced technology, hides it away, keeping it secret and only concerned with its own little corner of the world. What is this if not the despicable and cowardly behavior of a scoundrel?!
"As expected, a bunch of cowardly rats hiding their heads and tails!" Tian Yue sneered, her fighting spirit and contempt intensifying. "You steal the legacy of the sages, yet you have no heart to benefit the world! Today, I will show you what true power is!"
She viewed the well-preserved barrier technology of Sea God Island as evidence of the other party's "selfishness" and "secret hiding," which further strengthened her resolve to completely destroy it and take everything back to His Holiness the Pope.
The countless Soul Tool cannons on the fleet once again gathered energy, Soul Engineer, under Tian Yue's instructions, searched for the weak points of this huge barrier, preparing for the next round of attacks.
Chapter 267 Conquering Sea God Island, Firepower Coverage
Bo Saixi gazed at the continuous explosions and flames outside the barrier, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly. She gripped the golden scepter in her hand tightly and then slammed it down on the ground!
"Buzz--!"
With the resounding clang of the scepter striking the ground, the hundred-meter-tall true form of the Sea God behind her seemed to receive a command, and the enormous trident swung down fiercely towards the surging sea!
"Boom--!"
The once calm sea instantly boiled! Giant waves, tens of meters high, suddenly surged up like angry walls of the sea, carrying immense force as they crashed down on the Spirit Hall Empire's fleet!
