Ch. 182Killing Them and Twisting the Knife
Qian Xunyi rewarded the Evil Soul Beasts for pacifying the sea and forced Poseidon to raise their cultivation, further destroying the Good Soul Beasts’ faith in him. He brought the Demon Emperor and Demon Empress to face their tribulations, where the Demon Emperor was left near death by the first lightning strike.
- The Demon Emperor reported that the sea had been pacified and the Good Soul Beast clans had surrendered, then gave Qian Xunyi more than ten thousand Soul Bones.
- Qian Xunyi rewarded the Evil Soul Beasts with cultivation increases and ordered Poseidon to provide them, draining Poseidon’s divine power as he elevated the Demon Emperor and Demon Empress.
- Poseidon warned that Soul Beasts could not become gods and was ordered to kneel and slap himself; Qian Xunyi then offered Soul Beasts facing tribulations the choice to attempt them or join Spirit Hall in human form.
- Qian Xunyi took the Demon Emperor and Demon Empress to an empty stretch of sea, where the Demon Emperor began his million-year tribulation.
- A massive purple lightning bolt struck the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, leaving him at death’s door while Poseidon watched with satisfaction.
