Yes, I became a god just by exercising.

Chapter 198 Xia Fa's Rescue! Omega's First Vice-Captain Embarrassed!

"Ding!"

A crisp, melodious sound rose from Xia Fa's palm.

It was a silver coin, an ordinary-looking, unadorned silver coin.

With a flick of his thumb, Xia Fa sent the silver coin soaring upwards, reaching its highest point in the air before falling back down.

In the bustling and noisy Star Hall, some people were puffing on their pipes, some were excitedly waving their fists and shouting, and some had cold expressions and their hands were on their lighters... Therefore, no one noticed Xia Fa's not-so-strange behavior.

Most pirates loved money, which led to their penchant for collecting coins.

Pirates with this quirk were not uncommon, so even if Xia Fa flicked out a coin, no one paid much attention, especially since many people thought he was just a ragtag pirate.

In fact, some pirates, while watching the show, couldn't help but twirl a gold coin in their hands.
Some pirates rubbed the uniquely shaped, exquisite copper coin in their hands with their thumbs, their gazes shifting uncertainly as they looked at the back of the Omega vice-captain.

The silver coin flipped over and landed back in Xia Fa's palm. Xia Fa glanced down without making a sound, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

The silver coin, which originally had no patterns, now had a pattern resembling an underwater vortex appearing on it, which then quickly disappeared.

The "Silver Throne" and its "Destiny Coins"

This is one of the most mysterious abilities in the Silver Throne, a supreme-level contract, mainly because it is almost impossible to fully control.

During his time in Xiafa, whenever he was bored, he would study some things.

Then, he actually figured out some tricks of the trade.

The Fate Coin can be used in various ways, such as throwing it between enemies to detonate it as an "exploding silver nugget," in which the fate of everyone within the blast radius will be affected to some extent.

However, the higher the rank, the less interference one receives.

On the other hand, you can also directly toss a Fate Coin and then apply a fateful influence to the designated target.

This kind of application is uncontrollable; it may bring misfortune, good fortune, or an unpredictable fate to the target.

This is the method that Xia Fa is using now, and the target of his application is Captain Omega.

Based on his research and development of this secret ability, when the Coin of Destiny is tossed and a pattern of stacked banknotes appears, it means that good fortune has been bestowed.

If a skull or crossbones pattern appears, it indicates that misfortune is being inflicted.

As for the underwater vortex pattern... that's complicated; it will face a completely unpredictable and uncontrollable fate.

Normally, with Xia Fa's mere Eagle-level transcendent status, there would be absolutely no way he could use this move against an angel like Omega's vice-captain.

However, Xia Fa has a strange current at its spine.

This strange electric current can help him divine information involving the ruler, and can help him resist the invasion of the outer gods. It's not that driving this strange electric current to affect an angel is anything special.

When he tossed the Destiny Coin just now, he activated two strange electric currents from the spine, and finally succeeded in applying them.

A sudden wave of dizziness washed over him, his vision went black, and Xia Fa swayed, nearly falling over.

Fortunately, he was among a motley crew of pirates, in a crowded situation. Just as he was about to fall backward, a pirate behind him pushed him back and forced him to stand firm.

Xia Fa closed his eyes for a while before recovering. The darkness in front of him gradually disappeared, and his vision became clear again. He saw the crowded Hall of Stars once more.

"That was close. It seems that casting a secret bond ability on an existence whose rank is far superior to mine is completely different from directly using a secret bond ability to attack such an existence..."

Feeling the almost completely drained extraordinary power, mental energy, and even the burning sensation within his cells, Xia Fa was still shaken.

If it weren't for the strange electric current at his tailbone, which already had more than a dozen currents covering his cerebral cortex, Xia Fa suspected that he would have lost control on the spot.

After catching his breath, Xia Fa secretly flipped his palm and took out a small piece of "Mountain Dragon Bear" meat, quietly stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it without chewing. Only then did he breathe a slight sigh of relief.

Feeling the gentle, extraordinary power spreading from his abdomen, Xia Fa felt a little relieved.

Just now, just as the Omega vice-captain was about to use the sealed artifact, the "Time-Peeping Telescope," to expose Hercules' cousin, the Fish-Man Emperor who was also the Father of All Stars,
Xia Fa's original plan was to directly enter the state of the Starry Silver Throne, launch a surprise attack, severely injure the Omega vice-captain with one strike, then cut the seal with another, and then immediately escape.

At that time, the mystical living silver within his body was about to boil over completely, preparing to transform into starlight mercury.

Suddenly, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Xia Fa noticed that the thousand-faced prophet floating in the air, as if in a different space from everyone else, glanced in their direction.

This pirate emperor, whose fearsome reputation rivaled that of the Roaring Emperor and whose cunning and caution even surpassed his, seemed to have a premonition of something.

Fortunately, the Thousand-Faced Prophet couldn't pinpoint who it was; his gaze merely swept over the ragtag group of pirates before returning to his own.

But Xia Fa certainly couldn't take any more action. The Thousand-Faced Prophet, the ruler, was already on guard. If he made a move, he would probably be immediately suppressed, and then all his secrets would be discovered.

Although he could fight angels, he was completely powerless against the Overlord.

Therefore, in desperation, Xia Fa suddenly thought of the "Silver Coin of Destiny" in the "Silver Throne" and risked giving it a try.

Fortunately, this move did not alert the Thousand-Faced Prophet.

Xia Fa slightly opened a gap in his palm, and the Destiny Coin immediately transformed into liquid mystical living silver, which then entered through the gap.

After removing the last trace, Xia Fa raised his head and looked at the Omega vice-captain with a leisurely air.

A slight smile played on his lips, and a hint of mockery lingered in his dark, charcoal-black eyes.

Now that the deed had been successfully done, and the fate was unpredictable, he was eager to know what would happen next.

At that moment, the Omega vice-captain had already pointed the "Time-Searching Telescope" at the dome of the Hall of Stars and started turning the handle.

His face suddenly flushed red, then quickly turned pale, even showing signs of weakness.

Clearly, even for this angelic vice-captain, activating this sealed artifact would require an immense amount of extraordinary power.

Xia Fa also noticed that Omega's first mate had suddenly developed a few strands of white hair at his temples, and he looked noticeably older.

Xia Fa couldn't help but wonder if this was the price to pay for using the Time-Seeing Telescope, this sealed artifact.
A clicking sound rang out from the Time-Gazing Telescope, and the telescope's convex mirror suddenly shone brightly, like a movie theater projector, projecting countless light screens onto the dome of the Hall of Stars.

Surprisingly, the telescope projected not just simple images, but... a nearly realistic miniature world!

Upon seeing this, Locke's cousin's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he was about to make a move.

At this moment, the Father of All Stars raised his hand and stopped Him.

The Father of All Stars remained calm as always, though with a hint of disappointment. Like everyone else, he looked up at the miniature world gradually taking shape beneath the dome. To be precise, it seemed to be just a phantom of a miniature world, yet it was so real that it was almost indistinguishable from reality.

Almost the instant the phantom of this miniature world took shape, the sound of waves emanated from it, followed by the appearance of a vast, azure sea.

The sea is surging with waves, and a few small islands with coconut trees can be vaguely seen in the distance.

Pirates familiar with the Baron Ocean, especially those who made a living in the territorial waters of the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, immediately recognized it as the Blue Shell Sea, not far from the Worm Islands!
At this moment, in the illusory world of that miniature world, on the vast and boundless sea, a large ship slowly sailed in.

It was an extremely large ship, appearing unbelievably large even in the phantom of this miniature world.

Originally, the small islands resembling blue shells in the Qingbei Sea were separated by a great distance.
However, once this large ship appeared, it seemed to directly occupy the area between those small islands, causing the small islands, which were originally very far apart, to be located directly on the left and right sides of the ship.

But that's not the most eye-catching part. What truly captivates people is the ship's unique design.

The ship's hull looks no different from an ordinary giant ship, but above the hull—there is a planet floating!
To be precise, it is an extremely small planet, but even so, it is still the size of two Rum Cities!
The planet was divided into layers, and in each layer, numerous pirates busied themselves going in and out of various ship cabins.

The entire planet is made of celestial iron metal, a purplish-black color that shimmers with starlight, just like the extraordinary metal used in the Star Palace of the City of Ten Thousand Stars and the Star Throne within it.

"So this is my cousin's 'Stellar'..."

Xia Fa looked at the ship that seemed to carry a planet, and his heart was filled with curiosity and longing.

Living on a ship like that for a while must be really interesting, right?

In the Hall of Stars, almost all the pirates held their breath, their eyes wide open, staring intently at the Stellar in the miniature world's illusory image.

Unlike Xia Fa, many of the pirates present had seen the power and magnificence of the Stellar from afar, and many of them were even originally from the Stellar.

Therefore, the pirates' focus was on the "truth" that was about to be revealed.

Without a doubt, what the time-peeping telescope projected, after Captain Omega paid a great price to activate it, was... exactly what happened at a certain point in time on the Stellar!

Everyone began to speculate.

Could it be that when the Father of All Stars reverted to his original form, the Fishman Emperor, Omega's vice-captain happened to witness it, and then remembered it wholeheartedly, projecting it out this time using the Time-Viewing Telescope?

Or perhaps, when the Father of Ten Thousand Stars was secretly discussing with other fishmen, the Vice-Captain Omega happened to overhear in the next cabin and memorized it as well?
The Time-Searching Telescope, a sealed artifact, was once famous in the Baron Ocean, and many pirates remembered its effects.

That is, users can recreate exactly what happened at the corresponding point in time from their memories.

Since this recreates firsthand experiences at a specific point in time, there is virtually no possibility of it being fabricated.

That's why, when First Mate Omega took out this sealed artifact, many pirates truly sensed that something big was about to happen and realized that First Mate Omega was serious.

Suddenly, the image in the miniature world zoomed in, instantly bringing it to the very top of the Starship.

At the very top of the Stellar, on the first floor, there is only one rather large room, which is the captain's cabin where the Father of All Stars resides.

Below that room, on the second floor, there are two rooms: the first mate's quarters for Captain Locke and the first mate's quarters for Captain Omega.

At this moment, the Time-Viewing Telescope projected the situation in the captain's cabin of the Starship directly.

There sat the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, holding a nautical chart in his hands, deep in thought with a furrowed brow.

However, the figure of the Father of Ten Thousand Stars was somewhat blurry and extremely unstable.

It wasn't that the Father of Ten Thousand Stars was in poor condition at that point in time, but rather that the Vice-Captain Omega, as an angel, forcibly projected an image of a ruler, and a transcendent monarch at that time. Naturally, it couldn't be a complete recreation, even at a great cost.

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars held up the sea chart, looked at it for a while, and then suddenly, his expression changed, and he put it down.

A few seconds later, footsteps sounded at the door, followed by a knock.

"Please come in."

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars spoke calmly, and the door to the captain's cabin was pushed open, with the second mate, Golden Fire Commander Lebrun, walking in.

The second mate of the Starship, Golden Fire Commander Lebrunn, and the second mate of the Sharkship, Golden Rapier James, were known as the "Golden Duo" of the Baron Ocean. Both were incredibly powerful and could not be defeated by ordinary angels.

Golden Fire Lord Lebrun strode into the captain's cabin, then knelt on one knee before the Father of All Stars.

"Chief, there's been some news regarding the ruins you asked me to investigate!"

The almost realistic miniature world projection blurred instantly, as if the Father of All Stars was conversing with the Golden Fire Lord Lebrunn.

Although the projection of the miniature world became blurry, their conversations could still be heard from time to time.

The pirates present pricked up their ears and listened carefully, afraid of missing a single word, but all they heard were words like "supernatural creatures," "treasures," and "extraordinary metals."

There is absolutely no information about the mermen.

The pirates all looked puzzled.

"what's the situation?"

"Is this what Omega calls evidence?"

"I think He's gone mad!"

"I thought the Father of Ten Thousand Stars would just transform into a fish-man."

"Isn't this just a perfectly normal private conversation?"

Many pirates couldn't help but complain, while others took the opportunity to speak up for the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, clearly having received favors from him or had him uphold justice for them.

Upon seeing this, the first mate of the Omega turned pale, looking bewildered and confused, clearly not understanding what had happened.

He clearly has concrete evidence that the Father of All Stars is the Emperor of the Fishmen. He only needs to project it through this Time-Searching Telescope. So why are the images from other points in time?
Xia Fa, however, smiled slightly, already anticipating what was about to happen.

With the fate of the Omega vice-captain disrupted, and since this time projection is beneficial to Cousin Hercules, it must also be detrimental to someone else!

Moreover, it is highly likely that the target of the Destiny Silver Coin is the First Vice-Captain Omega!
Just then, the image in the miniature world suddenly shifted downwards, landing precisely in the captain's cabin where the first mate of Omega was located.

In the scene, the first mate of Omega is all smiles, his face flushed with excitement. He pulls a bottle from his pocket and caresses it against his cheek.

"A lava octopus from the seabed... I've finally found another one! I'm going to enjoy myself to the fullest today!"

He deliberately closed the door and drew the curtains, his face growing increasingly excited. Suddenly, he opened the bottle cap and, at the same time, pulled down his pants!
