Background / History

Ascension and Conflict with the Demon Whale

Before becoming a god, Poseidon traveled through the deep sea and underwent trials there. He noticed that its heart contained no ancient ferocious beasts older than two hundred thousand years, but interpreted their absence as evidence that his own majesty had subdued the ocean 32 33.

His confrontation with the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was far less decisive than his later claims of universal dominion suggested. According to Asura God, the whale nearly tore him apart and devoured him; Poseidon blinded one of its eyes and seized five percent of its divine core. The whale continued to hate him and reject his authority 31.

After ascending, Poseidon left a divine inheritance on Sea God Island. Bo Saixi served as his High Priestess, while Tang San undertook the Sea God's Nine Trials in pursuit of his position 22 26 32.

The Heavenly Screen and Sea God Island's Appeal

When Asura God's attack failed to affect the Heavenly Screen, Poseidon urged caution. Bo Saixi likewise acknowledged that even his divine power could not interfere with it 2 6.

Nevertheless, Sea God Island's guardians believed his protection placed them beyond heavenly punishment. Bo Saixi appealed the continental ranking in his name, demanding recognition for the island and tenfold compensation. The Screen rejected the claim, establishing that the island controlled only a limited surrounding sea region rather than the entire ocean 22 23.

When the Screen dismissed Poseidon as a faith-dependent ascendant, he threatened to descend personally and destroy it. Asura stopped him, warning that unauthorized descent violated Divine Realm law and could result in the removal of his Divine Core 24.

Divine Punishment and the Collapse of His Inheritance

The Screen held Poseidon accountable as the source of Sea God Island's authority and sent the Dao-Destroying Tribulation into the Divine Realm. It pierced his defenses and struck his chest. Asura rallied the gods, while Destruction and Life helped invoke the Divine Realm Central Hub's protection; their barrier neutralized the remaining shock waves but could not prevent his demotion 24.

The punishment spread through his mortal inheritance. Bo Saixi lost her bestowed divine body and demigod power, the Seven Sacred Pillars cracked, and the Shrek group's trials inflicted violent backlash. Tang San's Nine Trials were subsequently confirmed to have been forcibly terminated 25 32.

The execution of the Vast Sea Fortune Golden Dragon erased a century of Sea God Island's fortune and ruined its spiritual foundations. Tang San's trident mark darkened, and attempts to contact Poseidon through divine sense produced pain rather than a response 28.

The Deep Sea Revelation

When the Douluo Deep Sea ranked tenth among the plane's supreme powers, Poseidon tried to claim its territory, creatures, and ranking as his own achievements. Asura challenged him by recalling the Demon Whale King's continued hostility, while Destruction dismissed his boasting 31.

The Screen then exposed Longcang's ancient extermination campaign in the waters where Poseidon had undergone his trials. He realized that the missing ancient overlords had been killed before his ascent—not frightened away by his authority—and questioned whether he would ever have attained godhood had he encountered Longcang's forces 32 33.

Bo Saixi's subsequent challenge to Longcang placed his surviving mortal legacy in further danger. Mu Tianji requested permission to destroy the island and sever every inheritance Poseidon had left behind; Ye Canghai authorized the campaign 33 34.

Appearance

• Hair: Long and azure 24.
• Bearing: Initially majestic; after the tribulation, he appears disheveled and pale, coughing divine blood 24.
• Armor: Wears Main God armor that shatters into blue fragments when the tribulation strikes 24.

Personality

Poseidon is intensely protective of his divine prestige. The Screen's criticism provokes him into threatening an illegal descent, and his demotion leaves him weeping with rage and grief 24.

His humiliation does not immediately end his arrogance. He treats the deep sea's ranking as vindication of his authority, calls aquatic beings his subjects, and insists that the Demon Whale King will eventually submit even after Asura exposes the weakness of that claim. Evidence that Longcang had already eliminated the ancient beasts he believed he had subdued finally reduces him to terror 31 32 33.

Abilities & Skills

Sea Divine Power

Poseidon manifests azure divine power and channels it through the Sea God Trident 24 31.

• Strikes the void with his trident to produce ten thousand ripples of divine water 31.
• Releases ten thousand azure trident shadows while attempting to intercept the Dao-Destroying Tribulation 24.
• Cannot resist that tribulation: his trident's radiance disperses, his armor breaks, and the strike penetrates his body 24.
• His claimed sovereignty over all aquatic life does not amount to actual control of the deep-sea beasts 23 31.

Faith-Based Divinity

Human offerings and faith supported Poseidon's ascent and remain a source of divine power 24.

• His connection to Sea God Island's worship creates the karmic link through which the Screen holds him responsible for its false territorial claim 24.
• Heavenly punishment can cut off his access to new faith, leaving him unable to replenish himself through planar worship for a century 24.

Divine Inheritance and Bestowed Power

Poseidon's inheritance operates through Sea God Island's trials, sacred structures, and divine blessings 22 25.

• Bestows divine light and a divine body on Bo Saixi 25 28.
• Provides the path Tang San follows toward inheriting the Sea God's position 26.
• Relies on mortal foundations that can be damaged or severed: punishment destroys the Sacred Pillars' protective laws and terminates Tang San's trials 25 32.

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Sea God Trident — His principal weapon, emitting blue-gold divine light. Its shaft develops dozens of cracks during the Dao-Destroying Tribulation. It is described as weighing 108,000 jin 24 28.
• Main God armor — Defensive armor destroyed by the tribulation's direct strike 24.
• Sea God Divine Core — Azure core bearing the Divine Ring of his former First-Level rank. Heavenly punishment severely damages it and forcibly removes that ring 24.

Relationships

• Bo Saixi — Devoted High Priestess and mortal representative. Her appeal invokes his authority and ultimately brings punishment upon both patron and priestess 22 24.
• Tang San — Candidate pursuing his divine position through the Nine Trials. The collapse of the inheritance ends that path and destroys Tang San's confidence in Sea God supremacy 26 28 32.
• Asura God — Divine Realm ally who restrains his attempted descent and organizes his protection, but later openly challenges his claims over the deep sea 24 30 31.
• Deep Sea Demonic Whale King — Long-standing enemy who accuses Poseidon of blinding him through a dirty trick and gaining the Sea God title through scheming. Poseidon's possible involvement in the whale's unusually severe heavenly tribulation remains unconfirmed 3 22 31.
• Ye Canghai — Longcang's ruler, who attributes Poseidon's downfall to arrogance and indulgence of his followers rather than weakness alone 25.
• God of Destruction and Goddess of Life — Help shield the Divine Realm from the tribulation's remaining force; Destruction later mocks Poseidon's renewed boasting 24 31.
