Although both the Spirit Hall and Sea God Island are places where gods ascended to heaven with a history of tens of thousands of years, and both have Peerless Douluo in charge and have divine backgrounds.
However, their combat strength and forms of existence are not even in the same league!
There's no need to elaborate on the Spirit Hall.
That was a colossal entity that had truly ruled the Soul Master World on the continent for tens of thousands of years!
Its influence extends to every corner of the continent, deeply rooted, with numerous powerful figures and unfathomable depths.
Aside from the Pope, the Elder Hall, and the Worship Hall, who knows how many old monsters and secret forces are lurking in the shadows?
Since they have been able to suppress the entire Douluo Continent for tens of thousands of years, their true strength is likely far greater than what the outside world sees, and even greater than Bo Saixi imagines...
Much more powerful!
As for Sea God Island...
Bo Saixi sighed softly to himself.
To put it bluntly, the only thing Sea God Island has that truly has strategic deterrent significance is...
Aside from the legacy left by the Sea God and the sacred site itself, there is only Bo Saixi herself.
Yes, alone.
Sea God Island is indeed Sacred Pillar Guardian are Titled Douluo, with Sea Dragon Douluo reaching level ninety-four.
But these people are more like the cornerstones that guard the Sacred Pillar, maintain the island's operation, and teach the believers.
Rather than a sword for conquering new territories and expanding the continent.
Soul Master on Sea God Island are mostly skilled in naval warfare, defense, and support; their strength is greatly reduced inland, far from the ocean.
More importantly, she, Bo Saixi...
Do not leave Sea God Island lightly!
This wasn't because she wanted a comfortable life, but because she had no other choice but to endure it.
Once she leaves Sea God Island, who will guard this sacred island?
Who can stop us...?
Deep in the sea, there dwells a terrifying being— the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King —who harbors a deep hatred for her and for Sea God Island, possessing strength also reaching level ninety-nine, and possibly even approaching the threshold of godhood.
Others may not know, but surely she does?
The eyes of that great whale were blinded by the Sea God himself with his trident!
Therefore, its hatred for the Sea God had long been ingrained in its bones.
Consequently, he also harbored deep hatred for Sea God Island.
They're constantly thinking about overturning and devouring this island!
The reason why the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King has not launched a major invasion over the years is that it is wary of the partial divine power restriction left by the Sea God.
The main reason is that with Bo Saixi on Sea God Island, she can mobilize the Sea God's Power to deal with and fight against that giant beast, keeping it out of the deep sea.
If she leaves, Sea God Island will lose its most powerful guardian. Will that vengeful Deep Sea Demonic Whale King let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
It probably won't be long before Sea God Island is completely submerged and swallowed up by towering waves and terrifying Sea Soul Beast!
At that point, what's the point of talking about joining forces to dominate the continent?
My hometown is gone!
unless...
Tang Hao, or the Clear Sky Sect, has the ability to make that vengeful Deep Sea Demonic Whale King give up its hatred for Sea God Island and stay quietly in the deep sea, not causing trouble.
But the problem is...
Is this possible?
Others may not know about the feud between the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and Sea God Island, but Bo Saixi, as the Sea God's representative and having ruled Sea God Island for a century, how could she not know?
That's a blood feud that can't be extinguished!
There is absolutely no room for maneuver!
Therefore, Tang Hao's grand plan to join forces and divide up the Spirit Hall was realized.
To Bo Saixi, it sounded like a clueless child talking nonsense on paper, drawing up a pie in the sky that was impossible to achieve.
Naïve, ridiculous, and... unrealistic.
Bo Saixi shook his head inwardly with a sense of helplessness, but didn't show it on his face.
So, she carefully chose her words and, in a clear yet polite voice, slowly said:
" Tang Hao, your... idea is very bold, and also very... ambitious."
"However, this matter involves deities and touches upon the very foundations of the two great divine lineages; it is by no means a trivial matter. I... cannot make this decision."
Bo Saixi's gaze seemed to pierce through the dome of the Sea God Hall, reaching towards the Divine Realm in the darkness:
"Alright, I can only convey the message you brought, and your... suggestions, to Lord Sea God. The final decision, whether to report to the Divine Realm, and what to do next... all rests with Lord Sea God himself."
She looked at Tang Hao, her tone calm and firm:
"If the Lord Sea God agrees with your views and gives the corresponding instructions, then my Sea God Island will naturally act in accordance with the divine decree."
That was a perfectly watertight statement.
She neither agreed to Tang Hao's crazy plan nor completely rejected it.
Instead, the decision-making power was delegated to the higher-ranking Sea God.
Regardless of the outcome, Bo Saixi was merely an executor.
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao was slightly disappointed that Bo Saixi did not immediately offer his support.
But hearing that the other party was willing to convey the message to the Sea God still brought him a surge of joy!
This has already achieved his primary objective for this trip.
That is to deliver the message to the Sea God!
Once the Sea God finds out, given the relationship between the two deities, the matter will be more than half successful!
"Thank you so much, senior! Thank you for your kindness!"
Tang Hao quickly bowed again, his face showing sincere gratitude. "No matter what decision Lord Sea God makes, this junior and the Clear Sky Sect will be eternally grateful!"
Bo Saixi nodded slightly and said no more.
She slowly closed her eyes, her hands forming a strange and ancient hand seal in front of her chest.
The vast, calm, and profound Soul Power surrounding him began to flow and rise slowly.
The next moment, a mysterious and strange fluctuation, seemingly able to communicate with distant time and space, quietly spread out from her center.
She was communicating with the Sea God.
Tang Hao held his breath, watching with a mixture of tension and anticipation.
He could sense that the Sea God's Power around him seemed to have been summoned and had become more active.
Even the enormous statue of the Sea God seemed to be radiating an even brighter light.
A moment later.
"Buzz--!"
Sea God Hall, the pervasive, soft blue aura suddenly intensified!
Like a calm sea suddenly being rippled!
Countless streams of blue light, imbued with a sacred aura, converged from every corner of the main hall, from the statue of the Sea God, and even from the void.
In the air not far in front of Bo Saixi, they rapidly coalesced and intertwined!
The light grew brighter and brighter, eventually transforming into a towering, azure figure that appeared to be composed of the purest seawater and starlight!
The figure was vaguely humanoid, with a majestic stature, wearing a crown of the Sea God, and holding an illusory trident.
The face was blurred in the light, indistinct.
But a terrifying divine power, vast and boundless, seemingly capable of controlling the entire ocean, descended with a tremendous force, filling the entire Sea God Hall!
It was Poseidon, the Sea God, who descended here as a divine phantom through communication with Bo Saixi and the faith channel of the Sea God Island!
