Douluo Continent: Starting from Tianshui Academy

Chapter 472 Poseidon Becomes a God

"Poseidon, you're very generous. I like it."

Upon seeing Poseidon reward Shuiyue'er with an additional 50,000 years for all her soul rings, Ye Liangchen immediately gave him a five-star review.

"The spirit rings have changed to black, black, red, red, red, red, red, red, gold, and blue-gold. That's amazing."

Poseidon and Shui Bing'er were utterly astonished by Shui Yue'er's extravagant combination of spirit rings.

"Haha...! I am the God of the Sea, and Yue'er is my successor. We must show some respect."

Poseidon increased the age of Shuiyue'er's soul ring so much in order to improve his relationship with Ye Liangchen.

"Thank you, Senior Poseidon!"

Shuiyue was extremely excited to receive such a generous reward.

"Girl, don't be so polite. You are my successor. From now on, all the people of Seagod Island will need your protection."

Poseidon reached out and helped Shuiyue up. This girl had taken over his post, and from now on he could live a carefree life.

"Sea God, I have a cultivation technique here called the Mysterious Heaven Technique. Take it and practice it. I hope it can help you step into the realm of God King."

"I suggest you go to a higher-level plane to cultivate; the speed at which you break through to God King might be faster than in the God Realm."

Seeing that the Sea God was so generous, Ye Liangchen took out the Xuan Tian Gong cultivation manual that he had already written from his game backpack space and gave it to the Sea God. After all, he had promised this old guy that he would help him break through to the God King level.

In the original story, after Tang San became a God King, he continued to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Technique. It makes sense for him to have the Sea God cultivate this technique now.

"Mysterious Heaven Skill?"

"There are actually such profound cultivation techniques? This is truly amazing!"

Poseidon took the Xuan Tian Gong cultivation manual and looked at it. He felt the profound mystery within and was immediately filled with excitement, as if he had opened up a new world.

"Thank you, I owe you a favor. I'll head back to the God Realm now."

"Whoosh..."

After obtaining the cultivation method for the Mysterious Heaven Technique, Poseidon was eager to return to the God Realm to study it.

"We should go out too."

The fact that the Sea God was so pleased with a cultivation manual of the Mysterious Heaven Technique made Ye Liangchen feel particularly amused. He then led the three women away from the Sea God's Inheritance Secret Realm.

"Whoosh..."

After leaving the secret realm, Ye Liangchen used his spatial divine power to close the barrier of the Sea God's inheritance gate once again.

"Greetings, Lord Sea God."

Hailong Douluo and the others outside also witnessed the entire process of the divine inheritance. At this moment, Shui Yue'er was already the true Sea God, and everyone immediately knelt down respectfully to pay their respects.

"Get up now, you're not allowed to kneel anymore."

Shuiyue quickly helped everyone up. These seniors had been kneeling and bowing to her every day, making her feel a little embarrassed.

"My lord, as the sea god of this generation, it is only right that you accept our worship."

"Everyone on our island is your subject and respects you from the bottom of our hearts."

Poseidon Douluo and the others reassured Shui Yue'er, saying that her status was undeniable and she couldn't escape it.

"Moon, listen to them." Poseidon nodded beside her, telling Moon not to feel pressured.

"Sister Yue'er, you've become the new Sea God! Hurry up and go outside to meet everyone on Sea God Island."

Ye Liangchen reminded her from the side that now that Shui Yue'er has become the Sea God of this generation, she needs to make everyone on the island obey her in order to collect more faith power.

"You few accompany Yue'er on this trip."

Upon seeing this, Poseidon immediately arranged for the Seven Pillar Guardians, Yali, Xiaoli, and others to accompany Shuiyue'er on her trip, so that she would have a grander presence.

"As you command, Great Offering."

"Lord Sea God, let's go!"

Hailong Douluo and the others nodded and immediately surrounded Shuiyue'er as they walked outside.

"Aren't you coming with me?"

Seeing that Ye Liangchen, Shui Bing'er, and Poseidon did not intend to leave the Sea God Temple, Shui Yue'er looked at the three of them with longing eyes.

"Sister Yue'er, you're the star of the show today, so we won't be going."

Ye Liangchen urged Shui Yue'er to leave quickly, thinking: If I go, I'll become the main character, how will you display your prestige then?

"Oh well!"

Upon seeing this, Shui Yue'er immediately understood that Ye Liangchen also wanted her to demonstrate her prestige. So, holding her trident, she walked out of the main hall surrounded by Hailong Douluo and others.

"Greetings, Lord Sea God..."

"Rise, all of you!..."

As Shui Yue'er descended from Seagod Mountain, the more than 1000 Soul Masters cheered in unison, and Shui Yue'er interacted with them with a smile.

"Lord Poseidon..."

Along the way, thousands of people orderly escorted Shuiyue'er as they walked towards the foot of Poseidon Mountain. They then crossed the circular lake and marched in a grand procession toward the nearest city, Hailong City, creating a very lively scene.

"Pfft...! This girl seems to be traveling like an emperor."

Seeing Shui Yue'er's current posture, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but laugh.

"In a sense, Yue'er is now the emperor of our Seagod Island."

Poseidon smiled and nodded, thinking to himself: Even the emperor's prestige is not as great as that of a god-level powerhouse.

……

After Shui Yue'er and her group left, only Ye Liangchen, Poseidon, and Shui Bing'er remained in the Sea God Temple, which immediately became deserted again.

"Sister Bobo, let me first remove the shackles that the Sea God has placed on you, and help you become a god."

"Buzz..."

Ye Liangchen stretched out his finger and pressed it on the red star mark between Poseidon's eyebrows, using his divine sense to enter her soul sea to see what kind of shackles the sea god had set up.

"Xiao Chen, what did you see? What are the shackles that Lord Sea God has placed on me? Why can't I feel them?"

When Poseidon's soul figure saw Ye Liangchen's divine consciousness avatar enter its soul sea, it immediately asked curiously.

"There is an invisible chain forming a net, connected to the red star mark in your hearts, making you the greatest provider of faith power. I will cut it off for you immediately."

"Click...click..."

Ye Liangchen directly used his divine sense to transform into a sharp sword and severed the invisible chains on Poseidon's body. In an instant, the red star mark between her eyebrows disappeared.

"Oh, I see!"

After the shackles were broken, Poseidon felt as if his soul had been elevated.

"Senior, how are you feeling now?"

Shui Bing'er saw that the red star mark between Poseidon's eyebrows had disappeared, so Ye Liangchen must have removed the shackles from him.

"It feels very comfortable."

Poseidon smiled radiantly, feeling the shackles that had plagued her her entire life finally lifted, and she felt incredibly relieved.

"Xiao Chen, Bing'er, thank you."

At this moment, Poseidon was very excited and opened her arms to hug the two of them tightly. If she had not met Ye Liangchen, she would have died in despair. If someone else had obtained the inheritance of the Sea God, she would have had to sacrifice her life.

"Senior, you're welcome. It's the right thing to do to help you."

Shui Bing'er gently patted Poseidon's shoulder, feeling deeply moved. This stunning beauty's life had been far from easy.

"Bing'er, just like Xiao Chen, when there are no outsiders, you should also call me Sister Bobo."

When he heard Shui Bing'er call him "senior," Poseidon felt like he was being called old.

"Okay, Sister Bobo."

Shui Bing'er remembered what Ling'er had once said: no matter how old a woman is, as long as she is beautiful, she should be called "sister." After all, no matter how old Poseidon was, she could not be older than Gu Yuena, who was a silver dragon king who had lived for countless millennia.

"Sister Bobo, the conditions are now ripe. I will now help you absorb the power of the Sea God's faith, transform your soul power into divine power, and make you a true god-level powerhouse."

"Buzz..."

Ye Liangchen placed his hands on Poseidon's back, circulated the "Hun Yuan Jue" technique, and mobilized the power of faith in the Sea God's Palace to input into her body.

The process of converting divine power was also very slow. Two hours had passed, and only about half of it had been converted.

"What's wrong with the Grand Master?"

Just then, Shuiyue'er returned to the Sea God Temple with Yali and Xiaoli. She saw Ye Liangchen and Poseidon sitting cross-legged in the main hall, exuding a powerful aura, and she was very curious.

"Xiao Chen is helping the Grand Elder break through to level 100 and become a god."

Shui Bing'er pulled the girls away to a distance, telling them not to disturb Ye Liangchen.

"Ah! The High Priest is about to become a god? Luckily we got back quickly, or we would have missed it."

"You're back so soon?"

"It's just a trip to the seven holy cities to meet everyone; it won't take long..."

The girls chatted quietly while observing Poseidon's changes.

"Buzz..."

Two more hours passed, and Poseidon underwent a tremendous transformation. All of her soul power had been transformed into the power of the sea god, radiating a dazzling golden light.

"Wow...!"

Seeing the holy golden light surrounding Poseidon, Shui Bing'er and the others couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"This feels so good."

Poseidon felt that her body had undergone tremendous changes. Indeed, divine power was different.

"Click..."

At this moment, Ye Liangchen used his divine power to directly peel off the torso and soul bones from Poseidon's body.

"Ahhh..."

"You stripped away your soul bone... without even notifying me? You gave me no... mental preparation whatsoever."

Just as Poseidon was getting excited, a sudden, sharp pain shot through her back, causing her to let out a scream.

"Hang in there..."

Shui Bing'er and the others waved their fists from a distance to cheer on Poseidon.

"You're already a 120-year-old spinster, are you still afraid of pain?"

"Bear with it, we're starting to peel away your head's soul bone now..."

"Click..."

Ignoring Poseidon's screams, Ye Liangchen began to peel away the other soul bones from her body.

"Pfft...!"

Shui Bing'er and the others were amused by Ye Liangchen's words, especially the phrase "120-year-old spinster," which was a devastating blow to any woman! They wondered if Poseidon would hit him later.

"Ahhh..."

The intense pain caused Poseidon to scream in agony, her lips bleeding from being bitten so hard, and her body drenched in sweat.

"Just a little longer, it'll be over soon."

"Buzz..."

After Ye Liangchen finished stripping the soul bone, he immediately activated his divine power and began to forge divine equipment for Poseidon.

Before long, a set of golden divine armor was completed. Ye Liangchen then used his divine power to integrate the divine armor into Poseidon's body.

"Whoosh..."

After the divine equipment was fused, Poseidon officially advanced to a god-level powerhouse. A large golden circle slowly condensed, forming a divine halo, and finally stood behind her.

"Mmm..."

At this moment, Poseidon felt as if she were bathed in a spring breeze, her whole body was incredibly comfortable, and the previous pain vanished instantly.

"It's done..."

Upon seeing this, Shui Bing'er and the other girls immediately ran over and cheered for Poseidon.

After Poseidon reached level 100 and became a god, the heavenly tribulation did not descend. Just as Ye Liangchen had predicted, the divine power on Poseidon's body was the power of the sea god, which was different from the pure divine power on Bibi Dong. The rules of the plane may have thought that Poseidon became a god through faith, so the heavenly tribulation was not triggered.

Ye Liangchen felt that this operation was a bit like cheating, and it was quite interesting.

"Alright! Today is a happy day, we should celebrate!"

Ye Liangchen suppressed the girls' excitement and then prepared to return to the villa to cook a delicious meal and enjoy it properly.

"Xiao Chen, leave this to us! Today is a joyous day, we should celebrate properly."

Upon seeing this, Yali quickly led the three maids, Xiaoli, to the manor to prepare dinner for everyone and celebrate Poseidon and Shuiyue'er's ascension to godhood.

"These three girls are already Soul Emperors; their cultivation has improved very quickly."

Ye Liangchen hadn't noticed before, but the three beast-eared girls he rescued from the Tiandou Auction House back then have become so powerful now; they're truly remarkable.

"These three girls were personally taught by Sister Bobo, so naturally they're all excellent."

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er immediately offered a compliment to Poseidon.

"You two have such sweet tongues."

Poseidon was overjoyed to receive such praise from the Shui Bing'er sisters.

"Xiao Chen, I remember when you helped me remove my soul bone, you said I was a 120-year-old spinster. You've got some nerve!"

Just then, Poseidon stared at Ye Liangchen with a meaningful smile, then grabbed his ear and rubbed his head.

"Ouch! Be gentle!"

"I've become a god to distract you, so age doesn't matter anymore..."

Ye Liangchen hadn't expected Poseidon to hold a grudge, so he quickly apologized.

"I don't believe you for a second."

Poseidon rolled her eyes at Ye Liangchen, continued to pull the little guy's ear, and walked outside, thinking to herself: "He used to call me a 20-year-old beauty, and now he calls me a 120-year-old old maid. This little rascal is such a rascal. I'll have to find a chance to punish him properly later."

"Haha...! Xiao Chen, you can't just casually mention a woman's age, or people will get angry!"

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er followed behind, and when they saw Ye Liangchen being pulled by the ear, looking like a child who had made a mistake, they found it particularly amusing.

After arriving at the villa, Ye Liangchen and the others also helped to prepare delicious dishes to celebrate Poseidon and Shuiyue'er becoming gods.

After several rounds of drinks and several dishes, Shui Bing'er immediately returned to the Water Mystic Realm to continue her cultivation. Now that her younger sister had become a god, she, as the older sister, could not fall behind.

"Sis, I'll take you there."

"Whoosh..."

Shuiyue'er, with Shuibing'er by her side, flew towards a small island deep in the sea.

"If anything happens, remember to let me know. Now that your little sister has become a god, she can protect you."

After sending Shui Bing'er to a small island deep in the sea, Shui Yue'er left a divine imprint on her and then returned to Seagod Island.

"This girl thinks she can be the boss just because she's become a goddess?"

Seeing Shui Yue'er's smug look, Shui Bing'er shook her head helplessly, then entered the secret realm to continue completing the final assessment.

……

Poseidon has now become a god, and the position of high priest is vacant, so a new candidate must be chosen.

On this day, Shuiyue'er and Poseidon summoned all the guardians of the seven sacred pillars and Yali to the Temple of the Sea God to select a suitable candidate.

"I am not fit to be the high priest."

Ari was the first to abstain, as she was merely Poseidon's handmaiden and had no desire to become the high priestess.

"We recommend the eldest brother; he's the strongest."

Seahorse, Sea Spear, and the others immediately pushed out Sea Dragon Douluo, asking him to serve as the High Priest.

"Okay! It's settled then."

Shui Yue'er and Poseidon exchanged a glance. Among the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians, Sea Dragon Douluo was the strongest and the most suitable candidate to serve as the High Priest.

"But I must protect the Sacred Pillar of the Sea Dragon!"

Sea Dragon Douluo said that he was busy with two things and couldn't spare the time to be in two places at once!

"Kamans of the Sea Dragon City Lord's Mansion seems to be an 88th-level Soul Douluo, and his Martial Soul is also the Sea Dragon. We will directly help him advance to the Title Douluo level and let him take over the post of guarding the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar."

"After you take over as High Priest, Hailong, you can focus on nurturing the Golden Generation. Once they have grown up, you Seven Pillar Guardians can retire."

"Besides, you don't need to stay at your posts all day now; you can arrange your own time."

Poseidon suggested to everyone that now that she had become a god and her position as high priest had been revoked, it was impossible for her to continue staying in the Temple of Poseidon every day; she should go out and see the world.

"Yes, I am the Sea God now, so I can lower the difficulty of their test and make sure they all pass."

Shuiyue'er inherited all the powers of the Sea God, including the authority to conduct the divine examinations of the Golden Generation. She had complete control over how to assess those young people.

"Hailong, please don't refuse."

Poseidon looked at Sea Dragon Douluo. She knew that this subordinate also wanted to retire, but it wasn't possible yet.

"Alright! I'll follow your instructions."

Sea Dragon Douluo had no choice but to agree to Poseidon's proposal; his successor had not yet matured, and he simply could not retire.
