Origin Tribulation Struck the Sea God! A First-Level God Fell to Second Level! Bo Saixi's Divine Body Was Utterly Destroyed!

"Sea God Island has Lord Sea God's divine power protecting it... how do you explain that, Sky Screen?!"

The entire plane fell briefly silent.

Indeed, no matter how small Sea God Island's territory was, standing behind it was a genuine First-Level Main God who had ascended to the Divine Realm-Sea God Poseidon!

Yet the Sky Screen high above the heavens did not hesitate for even a moment.

A blood-red response came crashing down like a heavenly saber of crushing weight, bearing a might that towered above the nine heavens and ten lands:

[As for this so-called Sea God Poseidon, he is merely a lesser ascendant who lucked into his rank through humanity's incense offerings and faith ten thousand years ago!]

[His inheritance is crude; he understands neither the principles of the universe nor the workings of the starry rivers;

the paltry remnants of his will and so-called God Trials left in the lower realm... are no different from ants and dust, from grass and tiny specks, before the supreme will of the plane!]

[You dare invoke the lingering glow of an ant and claim it can oppose the heavenly laws of the cosmos? How tragic, how pitiful, how laughable!]

Rumble-!

The instant those lines appeared, a heaven-shaking blaze of fury erupted inside the God Realm Committee's Divine Temple, threatening to tear the divine domain apart!

"Insolence!! You bastard!!!"

Inside the Divine Realm's great hall, Sea God Poseidon's long azure hair whipped wildly without wind!

His once-majestic face twisted like a hideous demon's, and the Sea God Trident in his hand erupted with blinding, savage divine light!

It shattered the surrounding jade pillars into powder that filled the air!

"Lucked into ascension through faith?! No different from ants and dust?!"

Poseidon's chest heaved with rage, and divine blood seeped between his teeth!

He had been a god for ten thousand years, a Main God commanding his own domain in the Divine Realm. When had he ever suffered such face-trampling humiliation?!

"Today, I will descend in my true body and smash that wretched Sky Screen spreading its lies into dust!!"

Poseidon roared and strode forward, his trident tearing through the void as he prepared to force his way into the Douluo Plane!

"Poseidon, have you gone mad?!"

Beside him, an icy streak of Asura bloodlight swept across the entrance, resolving into the Asura God King's cold, merciless eyes:

"The God Realm Committee's code is strict. Deities of the upper realm may not descend in their true bodies without permission. Doing so is tantamount to betraying the Divine Realm!

Take one more step, and the God Realm Committee will pass judgment and strip away your Divine Core on the spot! You will be reduced to ashes!"

The Asura God's eyes brimmed with warning and wariness. In reminding Poseidon of the Divine Realm's laws, he was also saving his life.

Even he, a God King of Law Enforcement, could not fathom that Sky Screen's depths. If Poseidon charged down blindly, he might never even know what killed him!

"Damn it... damn it!!"

Poseidon clenched his trident, divine veins bulging across the backs of his hands, yet could only force that towering fury back into his chest!

He stood frozen, bloodshot eyes fixed on the scene in the mortal realm, grinding his back teeth to pieces in humiliation!

Meanwhile, high above the Douluo Plane.

The Sky Screen had already ceased paying attention to the mournful despair on Sea God Mountain.

A dark-yellow chain of the world's laws descended from the heavens and thunderously wound around the foundations of Sea God Island's earth veins!

The grand judgment of the Heavenly Dao reverberated through the cosmos with the finality of a coffin lid being nailed shut:

[Judgment concluded: Sea God Island's petition is rejected in full!]

[Effective immediately, Sea God Island shall be forcibly and permanently incorporated into the [Douluo Continent] landmass,

designated a coastal "subsidiary dependency" of the Douluo mainland, with no further rights to independent regional status!]

[The territorial map of the entire Douluo Continent shall automatically include Sea God Island as a dependent offshore island!]

Boom-!

Divine light descended, and legal authority took solid form!

On Sea God Mountain, the scepter suddenly flew from Bo Saixi's hand!

Unable to hold herself up any longer, her body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground!

Her brilliant blue hair lay scattered across the white jade steps. Every glimmer in her eyes went out, leaving only ash-gray despair.

In the Sky Screen's comment section, Xue Ye's golden lettering, brimming with imperial airs, considerately delivered the final stab:

[Heaven Dou Empire · Xue Ye: Oh my! After all that fuss, it turns out you're just a barren shoal floating off my Heaven Dou Empire's coast!

Since the Sky Screen has ruled that you belong to the Douluo mainland, I shall send a coastal provincial governor over to establish an outpost!

And while we're at it, we'll register your thirty thousand islanders as Heaven Dou citizens. Hahahaha!]

The repercussions of Sea God Island's forced confinement had yet to fade, and the Sky Screen high above had not stopped either.

Boom-!

A thunderous resonance of the Great Dao transformed into a rainbow beam spanning the plane's void, carrying terrifying tremors!

At the center of the Sky Screen, the gray-white seal of law abruptly darkened with a streak of pitch black.

A line of blood-gold lettering imbued with destruction manifested in the skies above both the Douluo Plane and the Divine Realm!

[Sea God Island, blessed by the Sea God of the boundless seas, submitted a false claim, attempting to annex a place on the continent ranking through flowing waters. This constitutes the crime of deceiving the plane.]

[As it bears the karmic ties of incense offerings, the source must be held accountable-]

[Authority at the source: Divine Realm First-Level Main God · Sea God Poseidon.]

[Judgment! Send down the "Dao-Destroying Tribulation" to punish the evil consequences of his arrogance and blind self-exaltation!]

"What?!"

Inside the God Realm Committee's great hall, the blood-red Asura Demon Sword resting against Poseidon's shoulder suddenly let out a piercing, mournful cry!

Before the gods in the hall could react-

Crack-!

The Divine Realm's towering dome, reinforced for ten thousand years by the divine power of the Five Supreme God Kings!

It was torn open like a fragile eggshell!

There were no churning thunderclouds, only a gray-black blade of heavenly punishment formed entirely from plane origin!

Wreathed in dazzling lightning capable of annihilating a Divine Core, it crossed endless spatial barriers and cleaved straight down at Poseidon without resistance!

Its speed surpassed even the limits of divine perception!

"No-!!"

Poseidon's eyes nearly split wide open, and the azure divine power of a Main God erupted wildly from him without restraint!

The Sea God Trident swept out ten thousand azure trident shadows, blasting toward his head with near-mad desperation!

Yet before that Dao-Destroying Tribulation, the so-called might of a First-Level Main God... was as fragile as willow fluff in the wind!

Boom!

The instant the lightning tribulation fell!

The Sea God Trident's towering blue-gold divine radiance dissolved like the first snow beneath a blazing sun!

Dozens of horrifying cracks split the golden patterns along its shaft!

"Pfft-!"

Gray-white origin lightning pierced Poseidon's chest without the slightest resistance!

His Main God armor exploded into countless blue fragments in an instant!

Azure Main God blood gushed out like a fountain!

Like a cannonball fired from its barrel, he was smashed deep into the floor of the God Realm Committee!

"Poseidon!!"

The Asura God King's expression changed drastically. Forming a divine seal with his hands, he shouted fiercely:

"Gods of the Divine Realm, heed my command! Draw upon the core divine power of the Divine Realm Central Hub and protect the Sea God!"

Hearing Asura's command, the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life also turned utterly grave, setting aside their usual factional disputes!

They invoked the Divine Realm's laws together, attempting to force back the incoming divine punishment with the fortune of the entire Divine Realm!

Hum-!

The golden protective barrier of the Divine Realm Central Hub braced itself above the great hall, finally neutralizing the remaining shock waves of that lightning tribulation.

Even so, the sight at the center of the crater made every Main God and divine official present suck in a cold breath!

"Cough... cough, cough..."

Deep in the divine crater, Poseidon lay with his hair disheveled. His once-majestic, spirited face was now pale as paper, and divine blood trailing wisps of bluish smoke kept flowing from his mouth.

More horrifying still was the azure Sea God Divine Core floating before his chest-

"Crack!"

An exceptionally clear shattering sound echoed through the silent hall.

The Divine Ring upon his Divine Core, symbolizing the authority of a First-Level Main God, was forcibly stripped away in an instant by the Heavenly Dao's lightning punishment!

Sea God origin power as vast as an ocean poured madly into the Divine Realm's void and was lost!

The azure divine radiance that had once illuminated the nine heavens and ten lands plummeted, withering and dimming at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The Sky Screen's merciless voice of judgment reverberated above the Divine Realm:

[Sea God Poseidon has suffered karmic backlash! His Main God Divine Core is severely damaged. His divine rank is forcibly demoted from "First-Level Main God" to "Second-Level Deity"!]

[The Divine Realm's Sea God Inheritance shall lose a century of fortune. Afflicted by calamity, he may not absorb new faith power from the plane for one hundred years!]

Boom!

His Divine Core was downgraded! A century of fortune was stripped away!

"S-Second-Level Deity?!"

Poseidon clutched the shattered Divine Core at his chest.

He felt the origin divine power within him, more than half of which had evaporated.

His once-lofty divine eyes filled with bloodshot veins and tears. As rage seared his heart, he actually broke into anguished sobs on the spot:

"I cultivated bitterly for ten thousand years... gathered the faith of countless millions to attain this rank of First-Level Main God!"

"Sky Screen! You've gone too far in humiliating a god! Too far! Pfft-!"

A mighty pillar of the Divine Realm now lay sprawled amid the rubble with disheveled hair, pounding the ground in heart-rending anguish!

Tears and divine blood smeared his face. Where was even a trace of a deity's transcendent bearing?!

Even a Main God in the Divine Realm had been struck down and had his Divine Core downgraded. For his servant on Sea God Mountain in the mortal realm, the backlash was an utter catastrophe!

The Douluo Plane, atop Sea God Mountain.

Rip-!

A bolt of divine lightning crossed layer upon layer of barriers between realms, plunging straight toward Bo Saixi atop Sea God Mountain like a spear of heavenly punishment!

"High Priestess, look out!!"

Sea Horse Douluo and Sea Dragon Douluo screamed hoarsely, their eyes stretched almost to bursting!

"Aah-!!"

An agonizing scream tore across the ocean!

The golden Sea God Scepter in Bo Saixi's hand was shattered on the spot into hundreds of pieces of scrap metal by the savage lightning of heavenly punishment.

The scorching golden fragments pierced the colonnades throughout Sea God Hall!

The crimson priestly robe she wore, a symbol of unparalleled divine favor, was instantly burned black and torn apart by the origin tribulation flames.

Bo Saixi's face turned as pale as paper with terror at this world-destroying sight, but the pride in her bones drove her to frantically mobilize every trace of divinely bestowed power within her.

She crossed her arms, and an enormous Sea God manifestation a thousand zhang tall appeared behind her!

The demigod Soul Power of a level-ninety-nine Peerless Douluo surged out without restraint, vainly attempting to clash head-on with heaven's might!

Yet before that Extinction God Lightning-

The so-called might of a demigod was as fragile as thin paper!

Boom!

The instant the divine lightning struck, that towering Sea God manifestation could not endure even half a breath!

Under the savage lightning arcs tearing through it, it exploded into blue motes that filled the sky!

"Aaaaah-!!"

A scream of utmost agony burst shrilly from the throat of the High Priestess who had stood aloof and unmatched for decades!

The savage divine lightning of heavenly punishment pierced her body, mercilessly boring into every limb and bone, every meridian and channel!

Crack! Crack!

Those were the sharp sounds of divinity being stripped away!

The "divine body bestowed by the Sea God" that had enveloped Bo Saixi for centuries peeled away layer by layer beneath the scouring divine lightning, melting inch by inch!
