The Sea God, who was observing the battle on Sea God Island in the lower realm through the faith channel, had completely lost his usual playful and composed expression. His face was extremely ugly, and his deep eyes were churning with suppressed rage. The divine pressure emanating from his body caused the entire temple to tremble slightly.

"Presumptuous!"

How dare a mere mortal attack his Sea God Island!

And that damned Silver Dragon King, he just stands there watching! What is he trying to do?

Bo Saixi is indeed a piece of trash. Peak Douluo lost so quickly. Sure enough, it was the right decision not to subject him to the Sea God's Nine Trials.

Chapter 269 The Silver Dragon King's Brain Damaged

In the past, when the rules of the Divine Realm were more lenient and the Asura God could easily interfere with the mortal realm, Poseidon, the Sea God god, would have already unleashed a devastating divine punishment, using thunder and giant waves to obliterate the mortal fleets that dared to blaspheme the divine majesty, making the Spirit Hall Empire understand what inviolable divine power truly meant.

However, things are different now.

Faced with that exceptionally solid dimensional barrier, the Sea God, despite possessing immense divine power, could only watch helplessly, filled with impotent rage!

What frustrated him even more was that he simply couldn't understand it! He had secretly broken the rules back then, leaving Sea God Island with a substantial fortune.

The seven Sacred Pillar are not only top-tier Soul Tool, but also the core that connects the power of the ocean and forms a powerful domain barrier.

Countless powerful Sea Soul Beast have benefited from his grace and can serve as an aid to Sea God Island in crucial moments.

The Circular Sea's anti-air and anti- Soul Power properties make it an insurmountable barrier.

High Priest Bo Saixi is a level 99 Peak Douluo, capable of mobilizing a portion of the Sea God's Power.

How many years has the Spirit Hall been researching Soul Tool? The Sacred Pillar he left behind is one of the top Soul Tool from ancient times!

How did Bo Saixi manage to lose so quickly and so completely?!

In his anxiety and rage, the Sea God's gaze was fixed on the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, who had been lurking on the periphery of the battlefield.

A deeply unwilling yet helpless thought arose—perhaps, the only way was to rely on the power of this "hidden danger"?

While it was difficult for him to concentrate his divine sense and penetrate the dimensional barrier, he could still manage to send a message to Gu Yuena, who was very close by.

"Silver Dragon King!" A divine thought, imbued with majesty and a barely perceptible urgency, exploded directly in Gu Yuena's sea of consciousness, "Help Sea God Island overcome this calamity! This god may grant you a chance!"

Above the clouds, a hint of surprise flashed in Gu Yuena's purple eyes, followed by a slight smirk that seemed to say, "Just as I thought."

The opportunity has arrived!

A god who is high above and looks down on Soul Beast as ants and weeds, actually has a day when he has to bow down and ask her, a "remnant of the Dragon God," for help? It's utterly ridiculous!

She did not respond immediately, but instead remained silent for a moment, allowing the Sea God's anxiety to brew in his heart.

Only when she felt the time was right did she respond slowly with her divine sense, her tone laced with a hint of mockery and undisguised ambition. "Sea God, empty words about 'opportunities' are far too cheap. I'll take action if you want, but I want a divine position!"

She paused slightly, a memory of the vibrant divine power she remembered flashing through her mind—the power she believed was most suitable for healing her own wounds and for the development of the Soul Beast Clan. She added, "I think... the position of the Life Goddess would be quite good."

······································

Divine Realm, Sea God Temple.

Upon hearing Gu Yuena's request, even the composed Sea God almost couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

This Silver Dragon King, has he perhaps been mentally damaged by the Divine Realm, or has he simply fallen into a deep sleep and become confused?!

They want the God-King level divine position of the Life Goddess, a First-Level God like the Sea God?!

How could Poseidon, the Sea God, possibly agree to such an absurd request?

He suppressed the urge to pry open Gu Yuena's brain to see if it was full of seawater, and began an extremely frustrating mental battle with the Silver Dragon King, whom he considered to be "a bit mentally ill."

He certainly couldn't offer the divine position of the Life Goddess, but he had plenty of ways to make empty promises.

"Silver Dragon King, the Goddess of Life is a precious artifact of the Divine Realm. How can it be decided by my mere words? Do not force me to do something against my will." The Sea God God's divine thought carried a hint of suppressed anger, but more so, it was persuasive. "However... if you help me preserve the inheritance of Sea God Island, you will have done me a favor and contributed to the order of the Divine Realm. In the future, with this achievement and my intervention, it is not impossible for you to secure an opportunity to participate in the assessment for another First-Level God."

He deliberately spoke vaguely and seductively, making empty promises, but precisely hitting Gu Yuena's weak spot.

"With your abilities, passing the assessment will be easy."

"Moreover," the Sea God's tone shifted, carrying a subtle threat and warning, "the Spirit Hall's actions this time are a trampling of divine authority. Today they can attack my Sea God Island, but one day they might very well turn their attention to your Star Dou Great Forest. Taking action now is also a way for you to eliminate a potential threat."

Gu Yuena remained silent, her purple eyes flashing as if she were weighing her options. She knew, of course, that the Sea God's words were largely unreliable.

But the Sea God struck a chord with her on two points: first, she was confident that with her talent, she would pass the divine test; second, the aggressiveness and strength displayed by the Spirit Hall Empire did indeed make her feel threatened.

Finally, after what appeared to be intense "bargaining," and after the Sea God made some empty promises about "appropriate care" for the Soul Beast Clan in the Divine Realm in the future—promises that were ultimately impossible to fulfill...

"Hmph, remember your promise, Sea God." Gu Yuena's divine sense carried a hint of feigned arrogance and compromise. "I will then take action and teach these ignorant mortals a lesson."

In the Divine Realm, the Sea God breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Gu Yuena finally being tricked into agreeing to help, but then couldn't help feeling contempt.

"As expected, a dim-witted dragon, powerful but lacking in intelligence. Once this matter is settled, hmph..."

He had already begun to plan how to erase this "favor" once the crisis was over, and even how to turn around and restrain this unstable factor.

Gu Yuena moved swiftly, transforming into an invisible silver streak of light, and silently made her way towards the war-torn Sea God Island.

Before his death, he entrusted his divine position to Tang San for safekeeping, but Tang San turned around and gave the two divine king positions to his son and daughter-in-law.

·········································

"Tian Yue, the life form that has been lurking has begun to move." Zhu Zhuqing, holding a sophisticated Soul Tool — Soul Power detection radar—stepped forward to report, her usually cold face now showing seriousness.

The battle in the Circular Sea below was nearing its end. The Spirit Hall Empire's fleet, with its overwhelming firepower, had completely suppressed the resistance from Sea God Island. Even those Titled Douluo from Sea God Island who had initially resisted with their faith were now all wounded, and their defeat was inevitable.

"Hmph, that rat that's been lurking in the shadows, watching the whole battle unfold, has finally made its move!" Tian Yue wasn't surprised at all, a cold smile curving her lips. The fact that someone possessed such powerful Soul Power fluctuations had remained hidden for so long spoke volumes about their intentions.

"According to the detection, the total amount and strength of this life form's Soul Power far exceed that of an ordinary Titled Douluo. It is almost impossible for a human Soul Master to reach this level. It is speculated to be... a powerful Sea Soul Beast that worships the Sea God and guards this place." Zhu Zhuqing, who had studied Soul Tool through the system, gave a professional judgment, her tone extremely cautious.

"Soul Beast?" A hint of disdain flashed in Tian Yue's eyes. "Then you should know even better that these beasts may have strength, but their brains may not be very sharp!"

Just then, a silver streak of light shot out from the depths of Sea God Island as if tearing through space, heading straight for the core of the Spirit Hall Empire's fleet! It was Gu Yuena!

"Enemy attack! Lock onto target, fire volley!"

Faced with the sudden appearance of the silver-haired woman, the Spirit Hall Empire fleet was well-trained and reacted almost instantly. The broadside cannons roared, and dozens of shells, condensed with high concentrations of Soul Power, rained down on Gu Yuena like a storm!

However...

"Boom boom boom--!"

The deafening explosions echoed through the air, and the intense flames and shockwaves engulfed Gu Yuena's figure.

But as the smoke and dust dissipated slightly, Tian Yue's pupils suddenly contracted—the silver-haired woman was floating in the air completely unharmed! A faint silver halo surrounded her, and those Soul Power cannonballs that were enough to severely injure or even kill Titled Douluo had not even damaged the hem of her clothes!

An absolute gap!

Tian Yue's heart tightened. Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately pressed the emergency button on the command console, which had been personally configured by Pope Qian Xunji! This was not a call for help, but rather the activation of some pre-set "special" response plan.

The next moment, the fleet launched another salvo. But amidst this dense barrage of Soul Power shells, a strangely shaped, inconspicuous special shell silently slipped into the mix and hurtled towards Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena's eyes were indifferent, even with a hint of curiosity. She really couldn't understand how such a creation of weak humans could possess the destructive power that (in her opinion) was quite considerable before.

Driven by a sense of curiosity, she didn't even use her energy barrier to deflect it as she had done before. Instead, she casually reached out and precisely caught the special projectile in her hand, intending to see what secrets this "little thing" held.

However, the instant her fingertips touched the shell casing—

"Puff!"

A dull thud, not loud, but chilling, rang out.

The shell did not explode violently, but instead burst open instantly into a thick, impenetrable cloud of dark green poisonous mist, which, as if it had a life of its own, suddenly enveloped Gu Yuena completely!

This turn of events was too fast and too sudden! Gu Yuena never expected that the human attack would take this form!

A black spatial rift was torn open.

Almost instinctively, she used her spatial abilities, a flash of silver light, to try and escape the poisonous fog. But she was a moment too slow; just before her figure disappeared, the eerie dark green poisonous fog had already stained her arms, hair, and even parts of her cheeks!

Although she successfully teleported hundreds of meters away in the air, Gu Yuena's expression turned extremely pale. She looked down at her arm and saw that the skin stained with the poisonous mist was tingling and stinging, and the dark green color was visibly trying to erode into her flesh!

This is no ordinary toxin! It contains an extremely insidious destructive property that specifically targets energy bodies and the essence of higher life forms!

She, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, was unexpectedly caught off guard and ambushed by a force she considered insignificant, using such insidious means!

·········································

At the Sea God Mountain, Bo Saixi and the other powerful figures from Sea God Island were initially invigorated by this sudden and powerful reinforcement.

The aura emanating from the silver-haired woman was unfathomable, far surpassing that of ordinary Titled Douluo. Especially after she easily ignored the Spirit Hall Empire's salvo, everyone saw hope for turning the tide in this desperate situation.

Bo Saixi was even more excited. Through her prayers, she had vaguely received a response from the Sea God, knowing that this was an emissary sent by the Lord Sea God to help her! She was about to announce this tremendous good news to all the Sea Soul Master to boost their morale, which was on the verge of collapse—

However, what happened next made the words she was about to say stuck in her throat. The excitement on her face froze instantly, turning into an expression that was a mixture of astonishment, disbelief, and even a hint of absurdity.

She watched helplessly as the envoy, on whom so much hope was placed, not only failed to mount Thunderous Might counterattack when faced with a new barrage of artillery fire from the Spirit Hall Empire, but also failed to mount any effective defense or evasion. Instead... he reached out and caught one of the cannonballs?!

What is she doing?!

The thought had barely crossed his mind when the shell suddenly exploded, turning into an extremely ominous cloud of dark green poisonous mist that completely engulfed the "divine messenger."

Although the "Divine Envoy" instantly escaped using her spatial abilities, the dark green poison marks remaining on her arms and hair, constantly attempting to erode her, clearly indicated that she had been poisoned! She had been ambushed by the insidious trap set by the Spirit Hall!

Bo Saixi opened her mouth, but ultimately couldn't say anything. A huge sense of powerlessness and doubt welled up inside her.

Lord Sea God... the messenger you sent may be powerful, but... isn't his mind... a little off?

Who would willingly accept an unprovoked attack from the enemy? Especially on a battlefield where two armies are facing off!

At this moment, the flame of hope that had just been ignited on Sea God Island was as if doused with a bucket of ice water, quickly dimming. The powerful reinforcements they had hoped would turn the tide seemed... not so reliable after all.

Meanwhile, in the distance, Gu Yuena felt the numbness and corrosive pain in her arm. Her excellent hearing allowed her to easily hear the whispers coming from below, and a look of shame and indignation appeared on her beautiful face.

She, the noble Silver Dragon King, was actually injured by such a clumsy trick in front of everyone!

And this happened in front of a group of humans!

This was an unprecedented disgrace in her long life!

"Insects... how dare you!!!"

··········

The Divine Realm, Sea God Temple

Sea God fell silent. Could it be that the Silver Dragon King had really lost his mind?
