Your bad luck starts now!

"Black Rhino Armor, upgrade!"

On Sea God Island, Bei Miao, who was facing off against Poseidon, had unleashed his full power. All nine Million-Year Soul Rings on him had completely merged into the Black Rhino Armor.

"Let me show you the upgraded Black Rhino Armor!"

Countless streams of water formed a vortex around Bei Miao. A moment later, the Meteor Spear slashed through it, shattering the vortex, and a brand-new suit of armor slowly emerged.

At that moment, the aura emanating from Bei Miao also underwent an earth-shaking transformation.

"Poseidon, you think you're strong, don't you?"

Holding the Meteor Spear, Bei Miao slowly approached him. "You didn't dare descend to the mortal world yourself, so you possessed this woman instead. What a coward!"

"You're courting death!"

Divine light blazed from "Bo Saixi's" eyes as Poseidon raised the trident in his hand and thrust it viciously forward.

"Think you're good at thrusting?"

Seeing this, Bei Miao refused to back down. He raised his spear and clashed head-on with Poseidon.

Bang!

Their power traveled through their weapons, and the mighty shock wave shattered the surrounding ground.

A moment later, Bei Miao gained the upper hand. With a forceful push, he knocked Poseidon's attack back.

"You still have plenty of training to do!"

Bei Miao snorted, then looked up. "You're here?"

"Of course. Our original self gave the order. How could we disobey?"

A gentle breeze swept past, and a figure appeared beside Bei Miao. "So this is Poseidon? He doesn't look like much."

"And who are you?"

Poseidon frowned and barked coldly, "Insolent mortal! You dare blaspheme against me? You're courting death!"

"My name is Dong Shan."

Dong Shan raised the hand bearing his summoner. "I'm also one of the Northern Underworld Empire's Five Elders. Want a fight? I'll oblige!"

"And there's me, too."

The earth trembled, and another figure leaped out from underground. "I'm Kun Zhong!"

"And me, Xin Nan."

Xin Nan made his entrance without all their special effects. He simply walked calmly across the sea.

In the Divine Realm, after seeing the Northern Underworld Continent deploy four powerful fighters, Asura God briefly closed his eyes, then said:

"Poseidon, I authorize you to increase the power of your possession again. You must take these people down!"

"Yes!"

Poseidon nodded, then took a deep breath and raised his hand. His true divine weapon, the Sea God Trident, appeared.

"In that case, I'll send my divine weapon down to the mortal world. That will surely leave them spilling blood on the spot!"

Beside him, Angel God's eyes widened slightly. He was actually sending down even his own divine weapon. Poseidon really was staking everything this time.

"You again!"

Poseidon glared furiously at Dong Shan and the others, divine power surging around him. "It seems I have no choice but to teach you a real lesson!"

"Let me show you my true power!"

With that, Poseidon abruptly raised his hand. Blue light illuminated the entire sky as a golden trident descended and landed in his grasp.

"With the Sea God Trident in hand, I'll send you all to your deaths!"

Poseidon's aura intensified again, instantly surpassing Bei Miao's before sweeping toward the others with overwhelming force.

"Tch!"

Kun Zhong stood in front of the others. An earthy yellow light flashed, and earth power surged forth, dissipating the Sea God's power into nothing.

"When it comes to strength, the earth reigns supreme!"

Kun Zhong swiftly placed the Earth Crystal into his summoner. "Earth Tiger Armor! Fuse!"

Xin Nan and Dong Shan exchanged a glance, nodded, and raised their wrists simultaneously.

"Flame Dragon Armor!"

"Wind Eagle Armor!"

"Fuse!" ×2

[Armor Fusion!]

On Sea God Island, the four suits of armor-yellow, blue, red, and black-had assembled. Their immense power immediately rose to contend with Poseidon.

On the Sky Screen, the Douluo Continent had little reaction to this, but the Northern Underworld Continent erupted with excitement.

[Northern Underworld Continent · Long Wei: Blessings of the Progenitor! I never thought I'd live to see the five suits of armor assemble. Does that mean He is coming?]

[Northern Underworld Continent · Bei Mingxue: General Long Wei is right. That is precisely what our ancestor intends-to summon Him.]

[Northern Underworld Continent · Di Huaiying: I've only read about this scene in ancient texts. I never imagined I'd see it with my own eyes in my lifetime.

Douluo Continent, you deserve much of the credit! Hahaha!]

[Douluo Continent · Dugu Bo: What the hell? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand a single word?]

[Northern Underworld Continent · Long Wei: You don't need to know anything. Just sit quietly and watch. I'm sure you'll be very surprised.]

Seeing the others transform together, Bei Miao immediately stepped forward. "Is our original self still not here? I can hardly wait."

"Soon."

Xin Nan pointed at the white light in the sky. "Look, isn't that him?"

"Woohoo!"

Under everyone's astonished gazes, the white light landed on Sea God Island. As it faded, Xi Zhao and Bei Mingyuan slowly came into view.

"Old man, remember me?"

A smile curled Bei Mingyuan's lips as he turned to look at Poseidon.

"It's... it's you!"

When Poseidon saw his face clearly, his expression changed drastically, and he instinctively retreated several steps.

"So you still remember me."

Bei Mingyuan sneered. "What, haven't I beaten you enough? You went up to the Divine Realm and still want another taste of my fists?"

"He knows about the Divine Realm?"

At that moment, everyone in the Divine Realm immediately seized on this revelation. Since he knew about the Divine Realm, he must know that gods like them lived there.

"This time, I'll beat some sense into you once and for all!"

Bei Mingyuan extended his hand. "Everyone, let's do this!"

"Yes!" ×5

Receiving their original self's command, Xi Zhao and the others immediately gathered around him, then extended their hands in unison.

"Metal!"

"Wood!"

"Water!"

"Fire!"

"Earth!"

A moment later, the five suits of armor instantly transformed into streaks of light, circled through the air, then merged into Bei Mingyuan's body.

"Your bad luck is about to begin!"

Bei Mingyuan sneered, then slowly spread his arms. A golden belt appeared around his waist.

"Don't even think about it!"

Realizing the situation was turning against him, Poseidon hurriedly swung the trident in his hand, trying to interrupt Bei Mingyuan, only to be sent flying by a sudden pillar of golden light.

"Emperor Armor!"

From within the golden pillar, Bei Mingyuan's voice, brimming with majesty and oppressive power, echoed across the heavens.

"Fuse!"

A moment later, endless light descended from the sky. Boundless imperial might spread outward, shattering the endless waves around them.

Both sky and sea trembled beneath this pressure. Poseidon still wanted to act, but the power pinned him in place, leaving him unable to move.

Finally, a cry that sounded like a whale's, yet not quite, rang out. The Kunpeng Martial Soul manifested and, with a few leaps, merged into the golden pillar of light.

A moment later, the golden pillar shattered. Clad in magnificent golden armor, Bei Mingyuan slowly approached Poseidon.

"Today, your time to die has come!"
