Longevity Sect, Cloudsea Hall.

Dark clouds and mist swirled around the hall. Li Xuan held the dim, lightless Blade of Divine Nature Severance in his hand. A faint aura of isolation flowed across its cold blade; it was a supreme treasure specially made to counter the Divine Realm's divine senses and sever the shackles of gods.

The system panel clearly appeared in his mind, its numbers precise and error-free.

[Current Shock Points Balance: 36,100,000.] [Special Item Held: Blade of Divine Nature Severance (Incomplete).] [Item Effect: Can sever Lower Gods' divine-sense locks on Douluo World lifeforms and shield them from divine detection.]

The Divine Realm chessboard review that had just ended had completely shattered the understanding of every living being across the continent.

Everyone suddenly realized that they were not free soul masters, nor were they independent beings. They were merely pawns to be manipulated on the Divine Realm's chessboard. Despair and hatred intertwined, spreading madly into every corner of the continent.

Li Xuan lowered his gaze toward the vast, boundless sea.

Among the hypocritical gods, Sea God Poseidon had committed evil for the longest, maintained the most perfect disguise, and possessed the largest number of followers.

To completely ignite the flames of rebellion against the gods, he had to start with this Ocean Sovereign.

"System, activate the seventh Sky Screen Review."

Li Xuan's tone was indifferent, without the slightest trace of emotion.

"Theme: <Deep Sea Buries Ten Thousand Bones, the Bloody Sins Beneath the Sea God's Hypocritical Skin>."

[Command confirmed! Sky Screen loaded!] [This review: Exposing Sea God Poseidon's dark past, buried for ten thousand years!]

Bzzzz—!

Azure light suddenly covered the entire sky, replacing the deathly darkness of the previous chapter.

The clear blue radiance appeared holy and gentle, yet to those watching, it carried a bone-piercing chill. Lines of blood-red words tore through the azure curtain overhead, savage and striking.

[Douluo Regrets Reckoning, Issue Seven: The Azure Sea Conceals Evil, the God Is Stained in Blood.] [This issue reveals: Sea God Poseidon, the butcher who buried tens of millions of Sea Soul Beasts!]

Blue light spilled across the continent, and all living beings instinctively looked toward the endless sea.

Sea God Island.

The sea breeze swept across the reefs as waves continuously struck the shore. Bo Saixi stood quietly before the Sea God Temple, her white high priestess robes dancing in the wind. After being exposed by the Sky Screen several times, she had long since severed her faith in the Sea God. At this moment, only cold confusion remained in her heart.

Tens of millions of Sea Soul Beast bones?

Having served the Sea God for tens of thousands of years, she had never heard of such a thing.

The Sky Screen's image suddenly plunged downward, piercing the surface and falling into the dark, unfathomable seabed.

There was no light, no life.

Beneath the murky deep sea, densely packed and boundless Soul Beast remains were piled into mountains. Massive whale bones, savage shark teeth, and crystalline fish-scale fragments lay layer upon layer, carpeting the entire seafloor.

The frigid seawater flowed slowly, washing over the mountains of bones. Silent, sinister, and horrifying.

[This sea region is called God Burial Abyss.] [Ten thousand years ago, this was a sacred gathering place for Sea Soul Beasts. Life flourished, and the seas prospered.] [After Sea God Poseidon ascended to godhood, he forcibly monopolized the ocean's source to consolidate his divine authority.]

The cold narration echoed between heaven and earth, bluntly exposing the Sea God's brutality.

The scene shifted, returning to the ancient seas of ten thousand years ago.

At that time, Poseidon had not yet fully stabilized his Divine Position. Countless clans of hundred-thousand-year and million-year Soul Beasts stood throughout the ocean, refusing to submit to a god's control. To command the entire sea, Poseidon unleashed Divine Punishment and raised monstrous tsunamis.

Raging seawater swept across the seas, and the sacred Sea God's Trident was stained with beast blood.

Countless gentle Sea Soul Beasts had no power to resist and were mercilessly slaughtered. Neither the old, weak, nor young were spared, while all powerful ferocious beasts were crushed.

[In a single night, he slaughtered three thousand sea regions and killed tens of millions of Sea Soul Beasts.] [He dyed the ocean with Soul Beast blood and paved his divine path with Soul Beast bones.] [Poseidon ascended to godhood by stepping upon countless skeletons, trading endless bloodshed for the merciful Sea God seen by the world.]

Boom!

Those few short lines sent a bone-deep chill through the entire continent.

In everyone's mind, the Sea God was merciful and benevolent, protecting the oceans and blessing all life. Countless soul masters across the continent worshipped the Sea God, traveling far to Sea God Island to pray and pay homage.

Yet the bloody truth now lay before their eyes.

The god revered by the world was actually a butcher whose hands dripped with blood!

Sea God Island's plaza.

The seven Titled Douluo went stiff, their pupils contracting violently. Sea Dragon clenched both fists, the golden dragon phantom around him trembling faintly as the faith in his heart collapsed with a crash.

"Impossible... Lord Sea God was kind and righteous. How could he commit such a savage atrocity against living beings?"

He roared, trying to deny the scene before him, yet he could not convince himself at all. The mountains of bones beneath the deep sea were irrefutable proof.

Bo Saixi closed her eyes. A clear tear silently slid down her face and fell into the seawater beneath her feet.

She had protected Sea God Island for tens of thousands of years, obeyed every rule laid down by the Sea God, sought an inheritor for him, and had even long been prepared to sacrifice herself.

In the end, the god she had served all her life was a butcher covered in the blood of innocent Soul Beasts.

Ignorant, laughable, tragic.

"So the holiness I held fast to was filth and bloodshed from beginning to end."

Bo Saixi murmured, her cool voice filled with endless exhaustion. The last glimmer of light in her eyes completely went out, leaving only bone-deep indifference.

The Sky Screen's revelations did not stop, and the image shifted again.

[After the slaughter, Poseidon altered the rules of the ocean to conceal his sins.] [He sealed ancient Sea Soul Beasts, imprisoned the ocean's source, and forcibly twisted the marine ecosystem.] [He deliberately created tranquil seascapes to blind the world, using false mercy to harvest the faith power of the continent's followers.]

Within the image, Poseidon sat upon the throne of the Sea God Temple, accepting the worship of countless living beings. Holy golden light enveloped him, and his face was gentle and compassionate.

Yet no one knew that beneath this god's feet lay a grave built from tens of millions of dead souls.

Star Dou Great Forest.

Di Tian stood in the center of the lake, his black beast eyes fixed on the sky as pressure surged around him.

The fate of Sea Soul Beasts was the future awaiting land Soul Beasts. If the Divine Realm wished it, every Soul Beast on the continent would become a sacrifice for the gods' advancement.

"Gods... all are hypocrites."

Di Tian roared deeply, ancient baleful energy sweeping across the entire forest.

Spirit City, Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong leaned against her throne, her violet eyes calmly watching the Sky Screen.

The Sea God's brutality, the Angel God's schemes, the Asura God's coldness—gods possessed not the slightest mercy. Every kindness was merely a disguise.

"Slaughtering life, altering rules, and fabricating a false image."

Bibi Dong's red lips parted, her voice cold enough to pierce the bone. "So the lofty gods used methods even filthier and more despicable than I, a Rakshasa demon."

The world had once branded her evil, but the blood on her hands did not even amount to a fraction of that on a god's.

[Ding! Detected that all beings hate the Sea God; negative emotions have erupted!] [Anger gained: +5,500,000!] [God-Hatred gained: +6,300,000!] [Current Shock Points Balance: 47,900,000!] [Special Notice: Bo Saixi's loyalty continues to rise; her favorability toward the host has surpassed the critical threshold.]

Longevity Sect, Cloudsea Hall.

Li Xuan looked at the system notifications, and a faint smile touched his lips.

Bo Saixi, a level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo, controlled the entire sea region and was proficient in all the Sea God's secret arts.

Now that she had severed her faith and developed rebellious intentions, she had already become his possession.

With a casual wave, an ancient tome glowing with dim blue light appeared from thin air. Strange wave patterns were carved across its cover.

[Item: Reversing Sea Art (God-Tier)] [Description: An ocean cultivation art that transcends the Sea God's rules. It can restrain all orthodox Sea God power.]

This was a high-tier shop reward the system had just reorganized, specially prepared for the god-rebelling Bo Saixi.

"Deep-sea bones will completely crush the Sea God's reputation."

Li Xuan muttered, his gaze piercing through the clouds toward the lonely, frigid Sea God Island. "Bo Saixi, you guarded evil for tens of thousands of years. Now, it is time for you to take revenge upon the hypocritical Sea God."

The azure Sky Screen gradually dimmed. Fierce winds suddenly rose over the sea, and the waves churned madly.

As everyone remained immersed in the shock of the Sea God's sins, a line of black-crimson preview text abruptly branded itself across the sky.

[Next Issue Preview: The filthy origin of the Angel Clan's bloodline.] [The day Qian Renxue becomes a god will be the day an entire clan is sacrificed!]

Heaven Dou City, Crown Prince's Residence.

Qian Renxue, stripped of her disguise, stared blankly at the sky. Her golden hair drifted in the wind, and her body trembled faintly.

Angel bloodline? An entire clan sacrificed?

She had always yearned for the Angel Godhood and desired her family's glory, yet she had never known what filthy price was hidden behind the Angel God's ascension.

Bibi Dong looked at that preview, and a frigid gleam surged in her violet eyes.

The Angel Clan—her people.

This time, it was the Angel God's turn to pay the price.
