"Now, you should see the difference in strength between us, right?"
Huo Yuhao stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze calmly sweeping over the remaining three. "Are you still going to try and stop me?"
The three Douluo, Sea Dragon, Sea Spear, Sea Delusion, exchanged glances, each seeing a deep sense of helplessness in the other's eyes. Sea Dragon Douluo sighed in a deep voice, "Now, the only way to resolve this crisis is to summon the High Priest in person."
He looked at Huo Yuhao's figure, his tone filled with undisguised shock:
"That person's strength has reached its peak; even if we all joined forces, we probably wouldn't be his match. I wonder when such a top-tier expert appeared on the continent. Like the High Priest, he is a figure capable of standing at the very top of the world."
Sea Delusion Douluo added in a low voice, "He even... possesses the innate potential to become a god."
Just then, a voice rang out from the sky, echoing within the Sea God Hall.
"Who dares to act so recklessly on Sea God Island?"
The sky was filled with blue Soul Power. The voice was a woman's, brimming with divinity; however, to Huo Yuhao, it was nothing more than a pretentious charlatan. It was none other than the High Priestess, Bo Saixi.
A streak of light stepped out of the Sea God Hall, and Bo Saixi headed straight for Seahorse City.
With such a huge commotion in Seahorse City, how could she, as the highest guardian of Sea God Island, sit idly by? How dare an outsider be so arrogant on the sacred Sea God Island? This is simply a blatant provocation against her, the High Priestess, and against the Lord Sea God!
To cause such a scene here is simply to disrespect her as the high priestess and the Sea God.
The next moment.
Bo Saixi stood in mid-air, her magnificent robes fluttering gently in the sea breeze. Her beauty was unparalleled, and her demeanor was elegant and noble. Her charm was in no way inferior to that of Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall. She looked down at Huo Yuhao below, her gaze filled with scrutiny and majesty.
" Sea God Island is the sacred territory of the Lord Sea God, how dare you act recklessly here!" Bo Saixi's voice, filled with awe-inspiring divine power, echoed between heaven and earth.
Huo Yuhao chuckled softly upon hearing this, his tone tinged with a hint of mockery:
" Sea God? Poseidon... I've always said I came here specifically to pay homage to the glory of the Lord Sea God, so why does the high priest say I've come to cause trouble?"
He spread his hands, feigning grievance. "This is clearly a huge misunderstanding! My admiration for Lord Sea God is like a surging river, never-ending!"
Bo Saixi looked at Huo Yuhao with a naive and innocent expression. "Since you revere the Lord Sea God, why are you causing trouble here?"
Huo Yuhao's lips curled into a meaningful smile, "It is precisely because I hold the Lord Sea God in such high esteem that I am even more eager to personally experience the strength of the High Priest under the Sea God's command, and... what kind of immense power the Lord Sea God himself wields."
Bo Saixi then realized, "You're clearly spreading heresy and misleading the public."
"I'm spreading rumors?" Huo Yuhao shook his head dismissively, then suddenly changed the subject, "To express my respect for Lord Sea God, I even wrote a poem for him."
Bo Saixi looked at Huo Yuhao with a puzzled expression. "Oh? Poetry, recite it then, let me see what kind of sincerity you, this impolite person, truly possess."
He cleared his throat and recited in an exaggerated tone:
"O Sea God, you are truly great."
The great one filled the sea with water;
The fish were given tails;
Oh, the beauty before me!
You have such a beautiful face and big eyes;
"Smooth, white legs..."
After reciting it, he looked at Bo Saixi with a smile, "How was it, High Priest? Was my poem acceptable?"
"Insolence!" Bo Saixi roared in fury, his divine power surging. "How dare you blaspheme the Lord Sea God! You deserve to die!"
Huo Yuhao feigned surprise, took a half-step back, and shook his head with a sigh:
"Me? I deserve to die?"
"Oh dear, it's so hard to be a person... I came here with sincere hearts to worship the Sea God, but I never expected to end up with a death sentence? This doesn't make sense."
Divine Realm, Sea God Hall.
The Sea God, upon hearing Huo Yuhao's "outrageous" verses, was so enraged he nearly crushed the armrest of his throne. What kind of rubbish was this?! Utter nonsense! Absolutely dog shit! What a terrible poem!
Furthermore, what does it mean for the Sea God to be great? It means filling the sea with water. If the sea had no water, would it still be called the sea? Wouldn't it just become land?
Fish naturally have tails. Could it be that this Sea God intervened and gave them tails? How could this be my achievement? This scoundrel is clearly deliberately blaspheming against divine power!
Inside the Asura God Temple.
The Asura God observed the events of the mortal realm with great interest, and when he heard Huo Yuhao's doggerel, he couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"Hahahaha! Well said! What beautiful poetry! Truly beautiful poetry! No wonder you are the successor chosen by this god! Now you seem much more interesting than that kid from another world!"
The more he thought about it, the happier he felt, and his laughter echoed throughout the temple.
The lower realm, Sea God Island.
"You... you! "Bo Saixi was nearly delirious with rage, her face flushed red, barely able to utter a coherent sentence. How dare he utter such disrespectful words to her, the High Priestess! In the past hundred years, who had ever dared to be so insolent?
"Do you know that in this sea, I am the number one person below the gods?" She suppressed her anger, her voice as cold as a knife.
Huo Yuhao raised an eyebrow, a playful smile appearing on his face, "Oh? The number one person below the gods? Interesting, very interesting indeed."
He stepped forward, his fighting spirit surging. "I wonder just how much strength this High Priest, the 'Number One Person Below the Gods,' truly possesses? Today, I'll have a good lesson with him!"
Bo Saixi scoffed, "I never kill nameless nobodies. State your title, you arrogant brat."
"A title?" Huo Yuhao chuckled. "I don't have a title. If you absolutely must have one... you can call me— the Underworld King."
His gaze suddenly deepened. " Underworld King, Huo Lai."
Bo Saixi's pupils contracted slightly. " Underworld King? This aura of slaughter and death emanating from you... you come from the Slaughter City?"
Huo Yuhao readily admitted, "Indeed, the High Priest is incredibly resourceful."
He abruptly changed the subject, his fighting spirit rekindled. "However, no matter how brilliant your strategies are, this battle is inevitable today!"
Bo Saixi's phoenix eyes flashed with murderous intent, her voice as cold as ice. "Today, I will make you pay the price for blaspheming the Lord Sea God!"
A bright light shone from between her brows, and a beam of spiritual energy, condensed to its extreme, transformed into a tangible beam of light that tore through the air and shot directly at Huo Yuhao!
However, an invisible barrier quietly appeared in front of Huo Yuhao. The Spiritual Shock that was enough to destroy the soul of an ordinary Titled Douluo was like a mud ox sinking into the sea after hitting the barrier, without even causing a ripple.
