No, we can't use "like"; we should say it's a natural green barrier.
Deep in the forest, some buildings could be vaguely seen, with white walls, red roofs, and pointed towers, appearing and disappearing in the moonlight.
Poseidon Island.
Yang Jian looked at the beautiful island and sighed inwardly.
This place can be considered a paradise on earth.
Compared to the hell on earth that is Killing City, this place is practically a resort.
Little White leaped out of the sea, transformed into human form, and landed on the beach.
She turned to look at Yang Jian, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Now you can tell me, what exactly do you want to do on Seagod Island?"
Yang Jian landed from the sky, his feet touching the soft sand, and took a deep breath of the salty sea breeze.
"I want to see your high priest."
Xiao Bai frowned.
"The High Priest is not someone anyone can just see whenever they want."
She looked Yang Jian up and down, pondering her next move.
This human's strength is indeed outrageously powerful; killing a 100,000-year-old demonic orca with a single punch is far too dangerous. If they have malicious intentions...
She cannot simply bring a stranger to see the high priest.
What if the high priest is taking a bath?
Pshaw, what are you thinking?
“How about this,” Xiaobai said after thinking for a while, “I’ll take you to see the guardians of the Seven Pillars first.”
"They are in charge of the defense of Poseidon Island. If they believe you have no malicious intent, I will inform the High Priest on your behalf."
Yang Jian thought for a moment and nodded.
"Row."
He wasn't in a hurry; since he was already here, a little longer wouldn't make a difference.
Xiao Bai led the way, with Yang Jian following behind her. The two walked side by side into the depths of Poseidon Island.
Crossing the beach and entering the forest, the path underfoot changed from sand to stone slabs.
The stone path was smooth, with unidentified flowering trees planted on both sides. Petals drifted gently in the night breeze, and a faint floral fragrance filled the air.
Occasionally, you'll encounter a few residents of Poseidon Island along the way.
They wore white robes, their skin was tanned dark, and they had simple, honest smiles on their faces.
Upon seeing Yang Jian's unfamiliar face, they all stopped in their tracks and cast curious glances at him.
Some people whispered among themselves, some pointed and whispered, and some even followed behind, wanting to see where this outsider was going.
Chapter 154 The Seven Sacred Pillars
Yang Jian ignored the comments from those around him and continued walking forward with Xiao Bai.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, a person appeared on the road ahead.
The man was burly, with broad shoulders and a thick waist. He had long, dark blue hair that cascaded over his shoulders. He had a rugged face, thick eyebrows, large eyes, a high nose, full lips, and a short mustache on his chin.
He wore a blue suit of armor with wave patterns engraved on it, and held a trident in his hand, the tip of which gleamed coldly.
He exuded a powerful aura, the aura of a Title Douluo.
Sea Demon Douluo, one of the Seven Sacred Pillars.
"Halt." Sea Ghost Douluo raised his trident and blocked the way, his gaze fixed on Yang Jian, his eyes full of vigilance. "Who are you? Seagod Island does not welcome outsiders."
Yang Jian stopped and looked at Sea Ghost Douluo, his tone calm.
"My name is Yang Jian, and I come from the mainland."
Sea Ghost Douluo frowned and turned his gaze to Xiaobai.
"Xiao Bai, what's going on? Why did you bring an outsider to the island? Don't you know the rules?"
Xiao Bai sighed and explained the situation with a hint of helplessness.
She didn't explicitly state how strong Yang Jian was, but only said that this human had done her a great favor by easily killing the 100,000-year-old demonic orca. She owed him a favor, so she brought him to Seagod Island.
But the implication was clear to Sea Ghost Douluo.
This human was very strong, so strong that Xiaobai was no match for him, so she had no choice but to bring him along.
Sea Ghost Douluo's brows furrowed even more.
He looked at Yang Jian again, his gaze now more serious.
Soul Saint?
His senses told him that the young man in front of him was only at the Soul Saint level.
But Xiaobai's words made him dare not let his guard down.
Xiao Bai is a 100,000-year-old demonic great white shark, whose combat power in the sea is no weaker than that of a titled Douluo, as is the 100,000-year-old evil tiger whale.
Even a 100,000-year-old demonic orca was killed with a single punch; this boy's strength cannot be measured by his level.
"Why do you want to see the High Priest?" Sea Ghost Douluo asked.
"There's something I'd like to talk to her about," Yang Jian replied succinctly.
Sea Ghost Douluo snorted coldly.
"The High Priest does not see outsiders. Go back to where you came from. Seagod Island does not welcome you."
Yang Jian sighed.
"What if I said I absolutely had to see him?"
The Sea Demon Douluo's eyes turned cold.
"Then you'll have to get past me first."
He raised his trident, and nine spirit rings appeared beneath his feet—two yellow, two purple, and five black—giving him a menacing aura.
Xiao Bai stepped aside, crossed his arms, and looked on with a spectator's expression.
Although she owed Yang Jian a favor, she also wanted to see just how strong this human really was.
Yang Jian shook his head helplessly.
He doesn't want to fight, but sometimes he has no choice.
To be on the safe side, Sea Demon Douluo immediately used his sixth soul skill.
"Sixth Soul Skill, Sea Demon Binding!"
The trident in his hand glowed with a blue light, which transformed into countless light blue chains that surged toward Yang Jian from all directions.
The chains moved with lightning speed, binding Yang Jian tightly in the blink of an eye.
The corners of Sea Ghost Douluo's mouth curled up.
This move is his control soul skill, which can bind opponents who are one level higher than him.
He didn't believe that a Soul Saint could break free.
Yang Jian looked down at the chains binding him, feeling as if he were tied up with several ropes.
It is a little tight, but that's all.
He struggled gently.
The chains broke.
It shattered into countless pieces like glass, turning into blue specks of light that dissipated into the air.
Sea Demon Douluo's smile froze.
His eyes widened instantly, his mouth opened wide, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
His sixth soul skill was broken just like that?
He didn't even see Yang Jian exert any force; it was as easy as tearing a piece of paper.
Yang Jian looked at him, her tone indifferent.
"Should we continue?"
Sea Ghost Douluo gritted his teeth and raised his trident.
"Fight! Of course we'll fight!"
He simply didn't believe in superstition.
He was a Title Douluo, while his opponent was just a Soul Saint. He still had many Soul Skills he hadn't used yet.
Just as the two were about to continue, they heard hurried footsteps in the distance.
Six figures burst out of the forest, moving with lightning speed.
The leader was a tall, middle-aged man with long blue hair, a resolute face, and wearing a golden suit of armor.
Sea Dragon Douluo, the leader of the Seven Sacred Pillars.
Following behind him were Sea Spear Douluo, Sea Illusion Douluo, Seahorse Douluo, Sea Star Douluo, and Sea Maiden Douluo.
Six people, six titled Douluo.
They saw the Sea Ghost Douluo confronting a strange young man, and then they saw Xiao Bai standing to the side, and their expressions changed.
"What's going on?" Sea Dragon Douluo stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Yang Jian. "Who is this outsider? Why is he on Seagod Island?"
Sea Ghost Douluo gave a simple explanation.
After hearing this, Sea Dragon Douluo's face darkened.
His gaze swept over Xiao Bai, then landed on Yang Jian, his eyes filled with hostility.
"No matter who you are, Poseidon Island does not welcome outsiders. Leave here and we can pretend nothing happened."
