Douluo Continent: I was exposed by the Heavenly Ranking after creating the Holy Court.

Chapter 89 Jiang Che and Gu Yuena arrive at Seagod Island! Poseidon appears!

"You are Jiang Che, the top power on the Heavenly Ranking, the one who single-handedly founded the Holy Court and inherited the Holy Spirit's divine position!?"

Bai Xiuxiu's pupils contracted slightly, a hint of shock flashing in her azure eyes.

Although she had lived by the ocean for a long time, she knew the information revealed when the Heavenly Ranking was descended, and knew that the deity Jiang Che inherited was the source of the Holy Spirit.

Seeing Jiang Che in person at this moment,

He sensed that the other person's aura was warm yet unfathomable, as if it contained the power of the entire starry sky.
Gu Yuena beside her exuded a calm and composed aura, and even without releasing her soul power, she inspired a sense of awe from the depths of Bai Xiuxiu's soul.

I've never felt this way, not even when facing my elders or the highest honors.

Bai Xiuxiu dared not be negligent in the slightest and quickly put away the ice spear.
She then bowed respectfully to Jiang Che and Gu Yuena, saying, "Bai Xiuxiu from Seagod Island greets Holy Master Jiang and Senior Gu Yuena."

Jiang Che waved his hand casually and said, "Hehe, Nine-Star Saintess, there's no need for such formalities."

After the ceremony, she looked up at Jiang Che, her voice tinged with curiosity and probing, and asked, "Why has the Holy Lord come to the Sea of ​​Tears?"

"We just saw you heading in the direction you were going; it seemed you were heading towards Seagod Island?"

Jiang Che smiled calmly, his gaze sweeping over the calm sea below, and said, "Indeed, our Holy Court has learned some news concerning the safety of the continent, and we need to go to Seagod Island to discuss it with the High Priest."

Saying,

His gaze fell on the trident mark between Bai Xiuxiu's eyebrows. The mark emanated a faint power of the sea god, which blended perfectly with Bai Xiuxiu's own ice-attribute soul power.

Jiang Che nodded slightly, and couldn't help but nod in approval, "Judging from the Holy Maiden's awe-inspiring divine aura and her extremely high compatibility with the power of the Sea God, I wonder how many Sea God trials she has completed?"

When the Sea God's Trial was mentioned, a hint of pride appeared on Bai Xiuxiu's face.
Then, with a hint of regret, he said, "Fortunately, thanks to the blessings of the Sea God, I have successfully completed the seventh trial. The task of the eighth trial is to personally slay the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and end this great threat to the ocean."

"I wanted to take this opportunity to test the extent of my own cultivation and see if I could adapt to the opponent's power in advance, but I didn't expect to be a step too late and let the seniors get there first."

Her tone betrayed her regret, and her fingers tightened slightly as she gripped the ice gun.

Jiang Che chuckled and shook his head upon hearing this, explaining, "Holy Maiden, there's no need to take it to heart. It wasn't me who killed the demonic whale projection this time, but rather the two guardian saints of my Holy Court who also inherited the position of deity."

"Their test was to destroy the projection of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and resolve the crisis in the Sea of ​​Tears, which can be considered as completing their own test and trial."

"So it was the Holy Court's two guardian saints in person. No wonder they acted so decisively." Bai Xiuxiu suddenly realized, gaining a deeper understanding of the Holy Court's strength.

Those are the legacies of two god-kings, so what's so difficult about destroying a projection?
…………

Gu Yuena, who was standing to the side, remained silent, simply standing beside Jiang Che and quietly watching Bai Xiuxiu.

Her gaze was gentle yet complex, carrying the pride and satisfaction of an elder for a younger generation, and also concealing a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, deep emotion) that spanned millions of years.

The vibrant figure before us, like Xiao Wu, is a descendant of the Soul Beast race who, after a million years, has truly embarked on the path of divine inheritance.

The sea god's mark between his brows was like a ray of hope, illuminating the bleak future of the soul beast race.

At this moment, she was filled with a myriad of emotions.

Since the fall of the Dragon God, conflicts between soul beasts and humans have been constant. Many powerful beastmen have perished at the hands of soul masters who hunted them down in search of soul rings.

Nowadays, there are very few soul beasts that can cultivate for more than 100,000 years, let alone the elusive position of a god.

A million years later, Xiao Wu and Bai Xiuxiu appeared in the lineage of soul beasts.

Regardless of whether they are loyal to the soul beast lineage, their origins are an undeniable fact.

Now, times have changed. Finally, a soul beast was able to inherit the divine power, but then the traitor, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, appeared.

If it had not colluded with the Abyss Saint King, but instead led the ocean soul beasts to seek a way to coexist, perhaps the soul beast race, and even the continent, could have truly ushered in a different ending.

Unfortunately,
Greed and ambition ultimately consumed the reason of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, leading him to oppose the continent.

…………

"Xiuxiu, since you are also going back to Seagod Island, why don't you take my place and lead the way for the two seniors?"

Liya smiled and stepped forward, affectionately taking Bai Xiuxiu's arm, saying, "With you leading the way, it will save us a lot of trouble."

Bai Xiuxiu readily agreed, smiling slightly as she said, "Of course, with me here, there won't be any ignorant ocean spirit beasts blocking our way."

After all,

She flipped and leaped off the back of the Demon Soul Great White Shark, gently stroking its head. The enormous soul beast nuzzled her palm tenderly before sinking back into the sea and quietly disappearing.

Clearly, this demonic great white shark was on its way to make contact with the enemy.

Liya released Bai Xiuxiu, cupped her hands to Jiang Che, and said with a serious expression, "Then let Xiuxiu lead the way from here on out. Holy Lord, Senior, and Tear Sea welcome you two to visit us anytime."

Jiang Che and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance. The latter stepped forward and said softly, "Since Princess Tear Sea has spoken, we will definitely come here when we have the opportunity in the future."

Jiang Che nodded slightly and said, "Farewell."

Bai Xiuxiu turned to Jiang Che and Gu Yuena and gestured for them to follow. Her icy blue soul power surged around her, and she transformed into a streak of light, leading the way: "Seniors, please follow me."

Jiang Che and Gu Yuena exchanged a glance, then followed.

Three figures streaked across the sky, speeding towards the direction of Seagod Island.

With Bai Xiuxiu, the inheritor of the Sea God's legacy, leading the way, and the great white shark with its demonic soul acting as a lookout, the marine creatures along the way all gave way.

They arrived in less than half a day.

From afar, Poseidon Island appears to float above the azure sea.
The island is shrouded in mist, with Poseidon Mountain standing majestically, its temple at the top faintly visible, exuding a magnificent and sacred aura.

Seven enormous stone pillars stand on the island, each engraved with different patterns. These are the Seven Sacred Pillars of Poseidon Island.

As the three approached the island...

A magnificent bell suddenly rang out from the direction of the Temple of Poseidon, and a figure appeared in mid-air first.

It was a woman, dressed in a bright red robe, with long, sea-blue hair cascading to her ankles. She possessed exquisite beauty and a noble yet gentle demeanor.
The newcomer was none other than Poseidon, the High Priest of Seagod Island and a Level 99 Seagod Douluo!

She held a golden scepter in her hand, the diamond-shaped gem at the top of the scepter shimmering with divine light, and her clear blue eyes were deeper than the sea, as if they could see through all things in the world.

As Poseidon appeared, seven more figures suddenly appeared, standing side by side behind her.

"Seven Title Douluos..."

Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes slightly and murmured softly.

No wonder Seagod Island ranks third on the Heavenly Ranking; it turns out that besides the Seagod's legacy and the Seagod Douluo, it also has some combat power.

The seven individuals possessed calm auras and powerful soul energy.
These are the Seven Sacred Pillar Douluos who guard Seagod Island.

Poseidon's expression remained unchanged, as if he already knew of Jiang Che and his group's arrival and had brought people to greet them.
