Impure World Tang Chen (1)

"Tang San, you must have seen everything that just happened."

"Yes, the Poseidon Seven Holy Pillars have fallen, and Poseidon Island is in imminent danger... I see that this boy already has the potential to become a demigod, and only I can defeat him."

"If I go, the divine examination will be difficult to begin."

"This is why I summoned you here temporarily."

Standing before the majestic and sacred Poseidon Temple, the Poseidon High Priestess Bo Saixi held her scepter, exuding nobility and elegance. Even with the fall of the Poseidon Seven Holy Pillars, her tone remained calm, as if nothing could disturb her emotions, giving people a sense of peace like Poseidon.

Behind her, Tang San remained silent.

His expression was slightly distorted.

Coupled with the resentment in his eyes.

He's a complete villain.

Further on, Tang Xiao, Tang Hao, the Second Elder, the Third Elder, and several other titled Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect stood in turn, watching the tiny figure hundreds of miles away as it walked step by step toward Poseidon Island. No one could stop it on its journey of hundreds of miles.

"Tang San!" Poseidon High Priestess Bo Saixi, seeing Tang San's furious yet hesitant demeanor, sighed inwardly. If she had another choice, she would definitely plead with the Lord Poseidon Lord Poseidon to reconsider his actions, "Because of the suddenness of the situation, after you undergo the divine trial, I will entrust the Lord Poseidon's divine artifact to you, and these people behind you will lead you to retreat... Now, are you ready?"

Perhaps people do change.

I went through something.

Naturally, certain insights will arise.

However, given the current situation, she couldn't see any possibility of Tang San defeating or resisting the God Trial Taker on the other side.

It's not just a difference in strength.

There's also a difference in mindset.

"High Priest... this... and what about you?" Tang San quickly concealed the resentment in his eyes, replacing it with a concerned expression towards Bo Saixi. Although Bo Saixi, having witnessed Tang San 'Tang San ability to change his demeanor, no longer trusted him. "And how will you handle this?"

Bo Saixi slowly walked towards the sea.

Face everything with equanimity.

Perhaps what has sustained her all along has never been hope, but faith in the Poseidon. Or perhaps, she doesn't believe in the Poseidon at all, but in any Deity who can protect the people of Poseidon Island.

In everything, for every gain there is a loss.

Conversely, what is lost will surely be gained.

"I am the Poseidon High Priestess."

"It is the last face of the Poseidon."

"Only by dying here can I be worthy of everything the Poseidon has given me."

"I've made this choice many times in my life."

"I don't regret it."

"Just like all these years, every time I watch the sunset, I've thought... if I had been braver back then, if I had given up the position of High Priest and followed your ancestor Tang Chen, would there have been a different ending, a better ending, or the opposite?"

"But when I finish reminiscing and carefully consider this imagined future, no matter how many times I think about it, my answer is always the same... I cannot abandon my identity as the High Priest to pursue love."

"This is not selfishness."

"There are no rules restricting me."

"It's a matter of conscience and responsibility."

"I was born on Poseidon Island and have always been a child of the Poseidon. I was given a divine examination by the Poseidon and appointed as the Poseidon High Priestess. Perhaps my soul is free, but my body is certainly not free. Because everything I eat, wear, use, and do, as well as the power and even strength in my hands, were given to me by the Poseidon. Before I return all of this to the Poseidon, I must take on the responsibilities of the High Priest. This is my duty as a human being."

"And that's something you need to learn too."

"You need to be responsible."

"Have the magnanimity that an adult should have."

"Instead of just hating."

Tang San's expression shifted unpredictably.

There's the unease of having one's secrets exposed, the dissatisfaction of being pointed out by Bo Saixi, the subconscious pretense, the hypocrisy that can't even fool oneself, and all the other things that belong to the mentality of a petty person.

Human nature is complex; everyone is different.

"Unfortunately, even if you pour your heart out, he won't listen."

"His vision is not very broad."

"But it's not without its advantages."

"You have a broad perspective, like yourself, and you're willing to sacrifice yourself for what you call taking responsibility."

"He has a narrow mindset, just like me, yet he can run away without any psychological burden."

Ye Qingcang, swords in hand, stared at Bo Saixi, who was also standing on the sea, across the distance. "However, you've overlooked one thing... why did I lend out the Angel Holy Sword from the Spirit Hall!"

"So, are you mocking my foolishness, or despising my stubbornness?" Poseidon High Priestess Bo Saixi was slightly puzzled, but she calmly countered, following her own train of thought, "I don't believe you need two divine artifacts to prove your identity, nor do I believe you need two divine artifacts to fight me. Divine artifacts aren't about having more; the one that perfectly matches your divine power is the most suitable for you... Do you intend to use another divine artifact to remotely seal the power of the Poseidon Trident, and then, through layers of protection, kill Tang San?"

After saying that, Bo Saixi shook his head to himself.

She could sense that Ye Qingcang very strong.

But she was confident that she could use the God Descent Art to entangle Ye Qingcang.

Could it be that Qian Daoliu has also come?

Use the Angel Holy Sword to suppress the Poseidon Trident?

"Your imagination is still not rich enough." Ye Qingcang twirled the Angel Holy Sword in his hand, raised it in front of him, looked at Tang San who had already obtained the identity of God Trial Taker on Poseidon Island, and smiled disdainfully, "This is the weapon I will use next; your opponent is someone else... Don't worry, this so-called opponent is someone you know."

Before he could finish speaking...

Within the Half Asura God Domain.

A wooden coffin emerged from the sea!

The two words written on the letter startled Bo Saixi!

"Tang Chen..." Watching the wooden coffin lid slowly slide down and sink into the water, revealing Tang Chen dressed in a black robe, his body and face covered in cracks, seemingly asleep, Bo Saixi's voice turned cold and harsh. "You want to provoke me with this desecration of a corpse?"

Before he could finish speaking...

Within Bo Saixi's constricted pupils, Tang Chen slowly opened his eyes inside the wooden coffin, revealing blood-red pupils and black sclera.

He caught the Asura God Sword that Ye Qingcang threw to him.

Although a layer of stone skin had appeared on the Asura God Sword at some point, seemingly resisting Tang Chen Tang Chen, Tang Chen still managed to perfectly control it when the Asura God Power Asura God Sword from his body.

"I'm not that bored... nor that heartless." Ye Qingcang twirled his sword, pointed to Tang Chen beside him who was only level 95, and posed a near-unsolvable question to Bo Saixi, "So, do you want to fight him, or do you want to fight me?"

"This is... um?"

"Maritime?"

"Shouldn't I... be in the City of Slaughter?"

"How did we end up on... Poseidon Island?"

"That's Poseidon Island, isn't it?"

Tang Chen's gaze slowly focused, and the moment he saw Bo Saixi, he was completely bewildered. The next moment, when he saw the surrounding environment, he was even more bewildered. He raised his hand to his eyes without confidence, looked at his cracked palm, and then clenched it without confidence. After two or three seconds, he lowered his hand and looked at Bo Saixi, who was equally bewildered.
