Chapter 6 High Priest, have you ever been hurt by love?
Chapter 6 High Priest, have you ever been hurt by love?
A surge of colorful light revealed a new ranking.
[Seventh Place on the Douluo Continent Power Ranking]
Poseidon
"Poseidon Douluo Poseidon, it really is her." In the Heaven Dou City tavern, an old Soul Master said to the young people around him, "One of the three peaks of the world, along with Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen. If she is not on the list, then this list is really problematic."
"But she's only ranked seventh?" a young Soul Master asked, puzzled.
"Didn't they say that she defeated both Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu back on Seagod Island?"
This statement immediately caused a small-scale commotion.
"Defeated them? Really? Those were two peerless Douluo!"
"Of course it's true! My grandfather used to make a living in the waters near Poseidon Island. I heard it from the Sea Soul Masters who came back. It's absolutely true!"
It's said that Lord Poseidon took advantage of the location of Poseidon Island; the power of the sea is boundless, and even Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu, working together, couldn't gain the upper hand!
"That's amazing? Then how come you're only seventh?"
"You know nothing!" the old soul master sneered.
Lord Poseidon's strength is unmatched on the high seas, but his power might be somewhat diminished if he leaves the ocean.
The sky continued to change, but it did not immediately reveal Poseidon's spirit rings and strength information as it had before.
[A Forgotten Story: The Bond Between Three]
The headline stunned everyone.
Why has the sky suddenly become so gossipy?
Immediately afterwards, the video began to play.
The image is divided into several segments:
The first paragraph describes two vibrant and ambitious young people arriving at the island.
One man wields an ancient, massive hammer, exuding heroic spirit;
A person with six pure white wings on his back, holy and handsome;
They challenged the legendary high priest of Poseidon Island to prove their own path.
The second part is about a battle that shook the world.
Faced with the combined attack of two future peerless Douluo, the red-clad, silver-haired woman standing atop the waves remained calm.
She didn't even move; she merely raised her hand, and the endless seawater effortlessly dissolved the domineering power of the Haotian Hammer and the scorching heat of the angelic light into nothingness.
In the end, Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu exhausted their offensive efforts but failed to force her to retreat even a step. They could only admit that they were invincible in "her domain".
The scene then focuses on the three people: Tang Chen stands with his hammer sheathed, his gaze towards Poseidon gradually shifting from initial fighting spirit to undisguised amazement and admiration.
Qian Daoliu slightly folded his wings, his brows furrowed, and his gaze toward Poseidon was complex and unfathomable.
Poseidon looked back at Tang Chen, a faint smile spreading across her lips, breathtakingly beautiful.
The third segment consists of fragmented footage from a brief pause.
Tang Chen and Poseidon strolled along the beach and talked under the starry sky, while Qian Daoliu stood alone on the edge of the cliff, gazing at the sea and sky merging into one, exuding a sense of loneliness.
A silent love triangle quietly sprouts and grows on this remote island far from the mainland.
The fourth section is the dock where we parted.
Tang Chen made a solemn vow to Poseidon: "I will not return until I become a god," his gaze burning with determination.
Poseidon nodded slightly, concealing a hint of worry and anticipation in her eyes.
Qian Daoliu stood at the bow of the ship not far away, taking one last look back at that red figure and his dear friend beside him. When he turned around, his expression had returned to the absolute majesty of the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, as if he had completely sealed away that brief state of mind.
The video ends here.
Dead silence.
A deathly silence that lasted for several minutes, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, the mind was completely blanked by this sudden image.
Is this really something we can watch for free?
What kind of twisted sense of humor is behind this canopy?
Even the romantic entanglements of the peerless Douluo from his youth have been dug up and publicly exhibited?
"My sea god..." A sea spirit master dropped the harpoon in his hand.
"Ancestor Tang Chen... Grand Elder Qian Daoliu... Lord Poseidon..." Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Bone Douluo Gu Rong counted on his fingers, his expression as strange as if he had swallowed an egg whole. "This relationship is really complicated."
"Hahaha! I never expected this! I really never expected this!" A burst of barely suppressed laughter erupted in a military camp of the Star Luo Empire. "I thought top-tier experts all sprang from rocks! Turns out they also have emotions and desires, and can be troubled by love!"
"Lord Qian Daoliu's gaze... oh dear, I didn't dare look too closely!" In a teahouse in Tian Dou City, female Soul Masters gathered together, their cheeks flushed with excitement. "It's so obvious! Too bad, his affections are unrequited..."
"Lord Bossi was truly a peerless beauty in his youth! No wonder!"
Much of the discussion revolved around Poseidon's stunning beauty and charisma.
"This canopy is so gossipy!!"
On Poseidon Island, the seven sacred pillars hummed softly at the same time.
Poseidon herself stood quietly before the palace, the sea breeze ruffling her now completely white hair.
She looked at her younger self on the screen, and at Tang Chen's burning gaze.
Looking at that time that had long since settled into the deepest recesses of the years, her exquisite face remained calm and undisturbed.
Only those deep eyes, accustomed to the ebb and flow of tides, flashed a fleeting, almost imperceptible glimpse of something else.
Inside the Haotian Sect.
Tang Xiao and the five elders looked at each other in bewilderment.
Seeing that their ancestor had such a "romantic affair" evoked indescribable complex emotions.
But in any case, the ancestor's behavior of heading straight to Poseidon Island after regaining consciousness now has the clearest explanation.
Terrace of the Offering Hall.
When the footage was made public, Qian Daoliu's icy demeanor froze noticeably and briefly.
A century is enough to smooth out any intense emotions.
He had long been accustomed to seeing himself as God's protector, forgetting that he was once a "human being".
His heart, which had remained calm for a century, suddenly skipped a beat.
My old comrades-in-arms—Golden Crocodile, Lion, Azure Phoenix, and Radiant Feather…
They saw it, they all saw it!
I saw their majestic, godlike, and supreme high priest, who had also been a disappointment in his youth.
An extremely rare heat surged uncontrollably onto Qian Daoliu's cheeks.
Although it was only a fleeting glimpse of red, it was instantly suppressed by even stronger soul power and willpower.
Qian Daoliu abruptly closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, his eyes were filled with absolute coldness, as if his momentary loss of composure was merely everyone's illusion.
But the invisible, suffocating pressure emanating from them made all the worshippers scream in their hearts: We didn't see anything! Really!
Their grand offering has been breached!
Although it lasted only a moment, it was enough to be recorded in the secret history of the Spirit Hall!
Just then, the light screen stopped waiting and began to display Poseidon's information in detail, instantly drawing everyone's attention, including Qian Daoliu's subtle emotions.
[Name: Poseidon]
Title: Sea God
Age: 133 years old
[Martial Soul: Sea God (Top-tier divinely bestowed martial soul, darling of the sea)]
[Soul Ring Combination: Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Red]
[Current Soul Power Level: Level 99 Peerless Douluo]
[Identity: High Priest of Poseidon Island, Poseidon's Human Spokesperson]
[Reason for inclusion: The absolute ruler of the ocean.]
Within the territory of Poseidon Island and the surrounding seas, one can mobilize almost limitless ocean power, combining offense and defense, making one virtually invincible within the territory.
[The spirit ring configuration is top-tier in this era, possessing exquisite control over multiple attribute powers such as water, spirit, and space.]
[Rewards: Increased Poseidon's Favor (Passive), Heart of the Tide (Special Material) x1]
[Reward Description: Deepening the Sea God's Favor will permanently increase the resonance with the power of the ocean, boosting strength by half a percent in ocean environments; the Heart of the Tide is formed from the essence of the ocean over millions of years, containing the purest water laws and life force, and can be used to temper martial souls or as a core material for forging divine artifacts.]
The release of information, especially the terrifying configuration of eight ten-thousand-year black spirit rings plus one hundred-thousand-year red spirit ring, and the evaluation of being "invincible on the sea," once again plunged the continent into a shocked silence.
This soul ring configuration has surpassed that of Qian Daoliu, who was just announced, and is the best among all the known entrants on the list!
No wonder she was able to defeat Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu who joined forces!
No wonder Seagod Island is so aloof and even the Spirit Hall is wary of it!
