Sea God's Coronation

As the crown slowly rose, Sea God Mountain began to change.

Sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone directly upon Bofeng. At that moment, he was dazzling beyond compare.

The seven Sacred Pillars erupted with unprecedented Golden Light, their beams shooting into the heavens as everyone turned their gaze toward Sea God Mountain.

A large ship was docked on the beach. Xiao Bai was inventorying the cargo. This time, she would accompany Brother Feng to the continent. To protect his safety, they planned to do some business there.

Crate after crate of goods was carried aboard. As a transmigrator, Bofeng possessed knowledge that did not exist in this world.

Thus, after a long period of tinkering, he had invented a variety of new ways to prepare seafood, all of which had received unanimous praise on Sea God Island.

While heading to the continent this time, he would also expand the business, opening up the seafood market across the entire continent and earning a few Gold Soul Coins along the way.

This was Sea God Island. The ocean was their immense source of wealth.

Then, a golden pillar of light shot into the sky. Xiao Bai, who was checking the cargo, froze slightly.

Her expression immediately turned excited, and she hurriedly dropped to her knees. She had seen the Sea God's silhouette. Amid the clouds stood the Sea God, holding the Golden Trident.

Bo Saixi promptly knelt as well. Bofeng stood there as the Sea God personally held the Golden Crown and, beneath the gaze of everyone on Sea God Island, placed it upon his head.

In an instant, Bofeng's mind became utterly clear. He listened closely to the roaring waves, feeling as though he had merged with the sea itself.

At that moment, Bofeng appeared exceptionally noble. The Golden Crown atop his head gleamed beneath the sunlight. The distinct trident mark at its center formally sank into Bofeng's brow.

A vast amount of knowledge concerning the seas and Sea Soul Beasts swiftly imprinted itself upon his mind as Bofeng absorbed it with his eyes closed.

After a long while, Sea God Island gradually returned to calm.

The people resumed their daily work. Bo Saixi watched with overwhelming excitement. The Sea God personally crowning him signified that Bofeng would one day become the true master of the ocean.

After a long time, Bofeng slowly opened his eyes. He had already understood the crown's function.

"Feng'er, how do you feel?" Bo Saixi asked impatiently.

Bofeng touched the crown on his head and smiled. "This crown contains the power of the sea. It can conceal my aura, preventing others from seeing through me."

As he spoke, Bofeng summoned his spirit.

Yet strangely, although he held a trident in his right hand, the Sea God's phantom did not appear behind him, and the soul rings beneath his feet had completely changed into one yellow and one purple.

Bo Saixi stared in disbelief, unable to trust her own eyes.

"My Sea God Spirit is far too conspicuous. This crown happens to conceal it, which is perfect for living on the continent in the future. My spirit is now a trident," Bofeng explained with a smile.

It would keep him from attracting attention and prevent the various factions from noticing him.

Especially... Spirit Hall.

"I see Xiao Bai loading up the cargo. Are you going to the continent, or are you going there to do business?" Bo Saixi asked with a smile.

From Sea God Mountain, Bofeng took in the scenery of Sea God Island. In the distance, he could vaguely see Xiao Bai directing people as the ship was filled with wooden crates.

Bofeng grinned. "Mom, the fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins you gave me aren't enough to spend. Since your son is going to the continent anyway, why not earn some extra money to help support the family?"

"Our family lacks nothing. Once you leave tomorrow, your mother will be alone in this whole house. Take good care of yourself out there. If you run into any trouble, go find Xiao Bai. With her strength, I doubt anyone on the continent would dare threaten her. Oh, and if Spirit Hall bullies you, or someone else tries to cause you trouble and Xiao Bai cannot handle them..."

"You can go to the Clear Sky Sect for help. Your father was its founding sect master, so strictly speaking, you are a member of the Clear Sky Sect, and your status there is certainly extremely high. When the time comes, simply take out the hammer your mother gave you. You will not need to worry about anything else."

Bo Saixi continued her instructions. "There is one more thing. Once you reach Douluo Continent, find your mother a daughter-in-law while you are at it. She should be from a family of matching status. I do not care whether she has wide hips; as long as she can bear sons, that is enough. But she must be pretty. No ugly ones."

"Mom!" Bofeng's face reddened. "I'm only eleven. I don't want to get married so soon!"

"What do you mean, only eleven?" Bo Saixi immediately said in displeasure. "Many people on Sea God Island are already married by twelve or thirteen, and some even have children. I missed your father back then and did not give birth to you until I was over a hundred. Do not look at your mother as though I am already over a hundred years old. Was there any woman who was not beautiful in her youth? Back in the day, your mother was the belle of Sea God Island. The people pursuing me could have lined up all the way to the Demon Whale Sea Domain."

"Your father was the same. He liked me, yet he would not say it. He insisted on waiting until he was over a hundred before speaking up. He made me wait alone for more than a hundred years before he finally confessed."

"So..."

Bo Saixi slapped Bofeng hard on the shoulder and said earnestly, "I'm leaving the task of carrying on the family line to you. I am giving you a mission: the next time you return to Sea God Island, you must bring me a daughter-in-law. Otherwise, do not come back. Just go to the Demon Whale Sea Domain and feed the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."

Bofeng nodded with a dark expression, saying helplessly, "I'll do my best."

"What do you mean, do your best? You should work hard!"

Bo Saixi added, "Also, leave more of those cosmetics you invented for your mother."

"Hm?" Bofeng asked in confusion. "Mom, do you use those cosmetics that quickly?"

Bo Saixi rolled her eyes at her son. "What do you think? Ever since you invented those things like foundation, face masks, and collagen, all that messy stuff..."

"I have to say, the effects are exceptionally good. After using them, it feels as though I have become much younger. When your father comes back, I will have to let him experience what it means to return to eighteen."

Bofeng silently nodded, then asked, "Mom, can you tell me where Father actually went?"

If he remembered correctly, his father should be in the City of Slaughter right now.

Hopefully he had not become the King of Slaughter. Otherwise...

At the mention of this, Bo Saixi's eyes dimmed. She said helplessly, "Your father went to the City of Slaughter. The Asura God's inheritance is there, and he should still be undergoing its trials. Eleven years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you are already eleven. When will your father return to see the two of us? I hope he does not make your mother wait several more decades."

"Although your mother is a Peerless Douluo with a lifespan of a thousand years, time is a woman's greatest enemy. During the days without your father, I often wonder whether I should have stopped him. But that was his dream, and I should support him."

Bo Saixi wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled. "Enough. The more I say, the more I want to cry. The City of Slaughter is actually a transcendent place left behind by a god, just like Sea God Island. Your mother has seen hope in you."
