I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Poseidon Island, the Sacred Pillar of the Sea Dragon.

Unlike its usual silent and deserted state, the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar was now occupied by several people gathered before it, including the guardians of the other six sacred pillars.

The six guardians stared silently at the empty Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar. Finally, the youngest and most impatient Seahorse Douluo spoke first, his voice tinged with impatience: "So, someone knew the Sea Dragon had urgently summoned us, yet they themselves haven't come. What are they doing?"

In response, the oldest of the self-proclaimed Sea Star Douluo said, "Sea Dragon is not the kind of person who would let a pigeon go unnoticed. In my opinion, he must have encountered a threat that he cannot overcome, which is why he has been slow to appear."

Upon hearing this, Haihuan Douluo, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and said, "Haixing is right. I also think that Hailong Douluo has encountered a problem, and a very big one at that. Otherwise, he wouldn't have disappeared quietly after sending the emergency signal."

Because Sea Dragon Douluo had not appeared for a long time, Sea Illusion Douluo began to worry about the safety of his old friend, so he took it upon himself to use his spiritual power to search for Sea Dragon Douluo's location.

However, this result terrified him, because he had spread his mental energy throughout the entire Poseidon Island and still could not find any trace of the other party. He also found nothing when he spread his mental energy to the nearby sea area.

Hai Huan Douluo then informed everyone present of this result, and to prevent them from disbelieving him, he turned to the Sea Witch beside him and said, "I suppose the Sea Witch has also noticed something amiss? When I used my spiritual power to investigate just now, I also discovered that you did the same thing."

At this point, everyone's focus shifted to the Sea Witch, who said as if confirming, "Hmm, it seems that Haihuan, like me, can no longer detect the Sea Dragon's location or life signals."

These words shocked everyone present. You must know that Sea Illusion Douluo and Sea Witch Douluo are the two people with the highest spiritual power on the entire Seagod Island, apart from the Grand Elder!

If even they can't detect the location of the Sea Dragon Douluo, then even their Seagod Island's High Priest Chen Hailiang might not be able to!

It's as if the Sea Dragon Douluo has vanished from the face of the earth!

Could it be that Sea Dragon Douluo really encountered some formidable enemy? But the question is, if that were the case, why were they completely unaware of it? You must know that every battle carries a certain degree of risk.

This is especially true for powerhouses like Sea Dragon Douluo, who are just one step away from advancing to Limit Douluo! Because Sea Dragon Douluo is so powerful, to defeat him, one would need strength surpassing Sea Dragon Douluo's, that is, strength at the limit level.

However, the commotion caused by a duel between semi-limit and limit level experts is by no means a small commotion, especially not one that they cannot even detect.

After listening to the words of Hai Huan and the Sea Witch, two Super Douluo renowned for their spiritual power, the crowd began to grow restless. Finally, the more composed Hai Xing Douluo stepped forward and said, "I'll go find the High Priest and report this to her first. You all should try to activate the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillars. Each Sacred Pillar is bound to its corresponding guardian. So, even if Hai Huan and the Sea Witch can't find the Sea Dragon's location, I think the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillars certainly can."

"""clear!!!"""

However, just as everyone was about to act according to Douluo's plan, the previously silent Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar suddenly burst into a blood-red light. The entire Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar was as if it had been stained with blood, turning from its original azure blue into an extremely ominous bright red.

Upon seeing this, Starfish Douluo, who hadn't yet left, shouted in horror, "This is!!! The Sea Dragon is dead!!!!"

Just as Starfish Douluo said, each Holy Pillar is bound to its guardian, and it can even be said that the Holy Pillar itself is a divine artifact exclusively for the use of its guardian.

And naturally, the Holy Pillars would react at the moment the Holy Pillar Guardian died, which is the blood-red light that the Holy Pillars are showing now!

Although everyone had speculated before, they didn't think it was very likely. After all, the Sea Dragon Douluo was second only to the High Priest of the Sea God. Only a Limit Douluo like the High Priest could kill such a Sea Dragon!

At this moment, a loud yet authoritative voice suddenly rang in the ears of the Holy Pillar Guardians: "There is no doubt, Sea Dragon Douluo has completely died in the line of duty."

A man with strong limbs, broad, rounded shoulders, and a high, firm chest, as solid as a steel pillar, appeared before the crowd.

The man was a rugged, rugged figure with thick eyebrows, large eyes, dark skin, broad shoulders, and a tall stature. Coupled with his short, sea-blue hair and blue armor, he resembled a stabilizing pillar standing firm in the deep sea.

Upon seeing this, the guardians immediately clasped their hands, knelt down, and said with utmost respect, "Greetings, High Priest!!!"

The man simply waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "No need for formalities. We have more urgent matters to attend to."

The man before you is the true ruler of Seagod Island, the current High Priest or Grand Elder of the Seagod, and the Seagod Douluo whose martial soul is the ocean—Chen Hailiang!

Chen Hailiang looked at the guardians of the sacred pillars before him and said in a deep voice, "Now our Seagod Island is facing an unprecedented calamity! All guardians of the sacred pillars, return to your posts, and then, under my command, activate the Seagod Sacred Pillar Formation! Implement the Seven-in-One Martial Soul Fusion Technique. I will take the place of Sea Dragon Douluo here! Do you understand?!"

"""yes!!!"""

Upon receiving the order, the guardians of the sacred pillars marched without hesitation toward their respective sacred pillars, preparing for the upcoming grand formation of the Sea God's Sacred Pillars.

Upon seeing this, Chen Hailiang looked at the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar, which was already soaked in crimson blood, and sighed, "Old friend, I'm sorry, but right now I can only prioritize the survival of Seagod Island."

After saying that, Chen Hailiang placed his hand on the Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar. The originally blood-red Sea Dragon Sacred Pillar returned to its original azure blue color, and the sea dragon totem originally printed on the sacred pillar also transformed into a wave-like pattern at this moment.

At that moment, a jet-black beam of light, as if piercing the sky, burst forth from the seabed and moved toward the clouds in the sky.

Chen Hailiang could only sigh and say, "Our life or death depends on this battle."
