Reincarnated as the Death Spider Queen, sacrificing Bibi Dong at the start

However, when he activated his Xuan Tian Gong and tried to push open the top of the large box, he found that he had no idea where to start.

The lid of this thing appears to have suffered severe cold welding due to prolonged exposure to the extreme environment of the deep sea with high pressure and high salinity.

Tang San even used the Crane Control and Dragon Capture Technique to pat it forcefully, but the lid seemed to be completely welded to the box and did not budge.

Left with no other option, Tang San turned to ask for help: "Teacher, I can't open it. This thing is extremely hard and dense. It must be an alloy made of some rare metal, and it's sealed too tightly."

However, Tang San's eyes also gleamed with excitement, "But something that can be so tightly sealed with this level of material... must contain an absolute treasure!"

Nan Feng raised an eyebrow and stepped forward.

A pure cyan wind element instantly appeared in his palm, transforming into a short, thin blade of gale force.

He crouched down, manipulating the Gale Blade, precisely sliding and slowly cutting along the seam of the lid.

Although he said he wasn't afraid of the dead, no one really knew what was sealed inside these thousand-year-old ruins. If it really was like Ning Rongrong imagined, containing a highly decomposed corpse, the image would be a bit too disgusting.

Soon, a soft "click" sounded.

Nanfeng then used the ultimate wind element to completely cut open the sealed lid.

He raised his hand and waved it casually.

The heavy metal lid slowly rose under the pull of soul power, and then fell to the side with a "bang".

The moment the lid was lifted!

"Om-!"

A dreamlike, iridescent glow flowed out of the box like ripples on water, instantly illuminating the surrounding seawater!

The crowd was initially somewhat apprehensive, but attracted by the dazzling light, they boldly and curiously approached.

Inside the dark gray box, there were no gruesome remains.

Lying there quietly was a set of uniquely designed and gorgeous full-body armor for women!

This armor is very peculiar. It is not made of heavy, solid metal. Its main body is actually a semi-transparent, seven-colored light membrane!

Upon closer inspection, the light membrane was woven from countless fine dragon scales, creating a dreamlike and illusory effect, as if it might dissipate in the wind at any moment.

On the chest area, there are two huge reverse scales with a glass-like texture, which serve as the core protective mirror.

From the edge of the reverse scale, countless intricate and mysterious sea-blue soul guide patterns extend, spreading throughout the body like blood vessels.

Several ribbons made of some strange glass material hung from the waist of the armor, their beauty breathtaking under the glow of seven colors.

However, the moment I saw this dreamlike armor...

Gu Yuena, who had been lazily leaning against Nan Feng, and the demon dragon Zi Ji, who was standing to the side, both changed their expressions at the same time, and a hint of undisguised shock flashed in their eyes.

"This is..." Zi Ji blurted out, "The true dragon's reverse scale?!"

Nan Feng's mental strength was incredibly sharp. The moment the lid was opened, he could clearly sense that the armor, as thin as gauze, exuded an ancient and pure extraordinary quality.

He turned his head and looked at Gu Yuena in his arms: "You can recognize this?"

Gu Yuena's expression was somewhat complicated. She stared at the armor in the box and nodded: "This is the reverse scale of the Seven-Colored Illusionary Sea Dragon... Moreover, it seems to have been processed by a human powerhouse and made into a... Soul Guidance Device?"

"Seven-Colored Illusionary Sea Dragon?" Nan Feng was slightly taken aback. "A true dragon species?"

“Hmm.” Gu Yuena explained, “This is a type of water-attribute true dragon that is relatively docile, dislikes fighting, and lives exclusively on the vast ocean. However, this type of true dragon has an extremely low reproductive rate and has long been completely extinct.”

"However, if the True Dragon Clan survives the Heavenly Tribulation of 100,000 years, the reverse scale containing the original power that falls off during the transformation is a precious treasure that is tough and will not disappear over the years."

Gu Yuena pointed to the two largest glass scales on the chest of the armor, "Those two are the core reverse scales that the adult Seven-Colored Illusionary Sea Dragon sheds during its metamorphosis."

Nan Feng's eyes lit up: "Is this thing very defensive?"

“Very strong.” Gu Yuena said without hesitation, “Although the Seven-Colored Illusionary Sea Dragons do not like fighting, as a true dragon species, their defense and ability to survive and escape in the water are among the best in the entire dragon race.”

"If this soul tool, forged from their reverse scales, were worn by a Title Douluo of level ninety or above and activated at full power..."

Gu Yuena gave Nan Feng a deep look. "I'm afraid that even now, with just your regular soul skill attacks, it will be difficult to break through its defense in a short time."

"That's amazing?"

Nan Feng was genuinely surprised this time.

It can even withstand his attacks at his current demigod level? Then this thing must be a divine artifact-level life-saving trump card!

Chapter 388 The Price of the Outcasts of Seagod Island: The Truth Behind the Massacre at the Sinking of Purple Pearl Island

……

"but……"

Gu Yuena changed the subject, shaking her head with some regret, "After all, this was made from the reverse scale of a true dragon with water attributes that lives at sea. To truly master this thing and unleash its full power, the user must possess extremely strong water attribute soul power, or... must be someone who can mobilize the power of the sea."

Upon hearing this, Nan Feng's curiosity was piqued. He reached out, wanting to use his soul power to test the power of this Reverse Scale Armor.

However, just as his fingertips touched the translucent, iridescent film...

A soft humming sound!

The magnificent armor that originally covered his entire body flashed slightly, then rapidly contracted amidst a dazzling burst of seven-colored light, ultimately transforming into a string of crystal-clear, delicate, and exquisite seven-colored glass bracelets, which lay quietly in his palm.

"It really is a soul tool?" Nan Feng raised an eyebrow in surprise.

He unleashed a massive amount of spiritual power, instantly enveloping the bracelet and forcibly intruding into it to perceive its internal structure.

With his extraordinary spiritual level, he quickly grasped most of the information about this ancient soul tool.

“Na’er is right, this is indeed a top-quality defensive soul tool passed down from ancient times.”

Nan Feng played with the glass bracelet in his hand and explained to everyone, "However, the activation threshold for this thing is ridiculously high. Only a Title Douluo level with massive soul power can support its activation. People who are not strong enough, let alone use it, can't even force it to turn into armor and wear it."

"and……"

A glint of light flashed in Nan Feng's eyes. "At the center of the core array of this thing, there is a very special deep-sea crystal. As long as the user is in the sea, it can continuously and automatically absorb the energy of the surrounding sea to replenish its consumption."

Hearing this, the sea maiden standing to the side looked at him strangely: "This setting... it's like a top-grade artifact tailor-made for us sea soul masters!"

You're only half right.

Nan Feng nodded, then said something surprising, "It's not only tailor-made for Sea Soul Masters, but... it's a creation of Seagod Island itself."

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, both the sea maiden and Xiaobai were stunned, their faces filled with bewilderment: "A creation of Seagod Island? How is that possible?"

Nan Feng raised the bracelet in his hand: "The core of this thing recorded a faint spiritual message and fed it back to me. The message roughly means that the creator of this armor was inspired by the Sea God and spent half his life collecting the materials. Unfortunately, due to his own insufficient ability, the core formation was incomplete and he was not able to complete the creation in the end."

"There was also a note left on it: If someone in the future is destined to find it, please cherish it."

The sea goddess was completely dumbfounded. "This person... judging from her tone, could it be that she has actually seen the legendary Sea God in person?!"

"I guess so." Nan Feng nodded thoughtfully. "He probably saw Poseidon, the sea god, before he ascended to the realm of gods."

"I'll find out when I ask that old man."

As he spoke, Nan Feng directly used his mental power to communicate with the Vast Ocean Universe Cover floating above his head, forcibly awakening the wisp of divine thought of the sea god Poseidon who was sleeping within it.

"Old man, look at this thing, do you recognize it?"

After a long while, Poseidon's slightly aged yet majestic voice lazily echoed in Nan Feng's mind.

However, when the Sea God sensed the Rainbow Armor that had transformed into a set of glass bracelets in Nan Feng's hand, his voice instantly carried a clear hint of shock and astonishment:

"This thing... it's still here?!"

Nan Feng raised an eyebrow in surprise: "You actually know him?"

Poseidon remained silent for a long time, seemingly lost in distant memories, before letting out a long sigh filled with complex emotions:

"Of course I know him."

"Back then, before I ascended to the realm of gods, I stayed on Seagod Island for a hundred years in order to rule the ocean, and personally built the Seagod's legacy site."

"During those hundred years, out of boredom, I casually took in a few disciples with good aptitude and occasionally gave them some pointers. Among them, there was a bright child who showed astonishing talent in the field of soul tools and even perfectly inherited some of my core soul tool techniques."

"but……"

Poseidon's voice became somewhat regretful and stern, "That child later committed an unforgivable and heinous crime, and in a fit of anger, I personally stripped him of his identity and banished him from Poseidon Island forever."

"And the only unfinished soul tool that child carried with him when I expelled him from Seagod Island is the Illusionary Sea Robe you are holding now."

"I never expected that the child would actually make this thing."

As Nan Feng listened to Poseidon's narration, his curiosity was completely piqued.

"A child?" Nan Feng pressed, "Boy or girl?"

“It’s a girl.” Poseidon sighed deeply, his tone full of regret. “Her talent in soul tools rivals even my peerless genius back then. You could say she’s the most insightful sea soul master I’ve ever met.”

"Unfortunately, her personality was too extreme and she was too eager for quick success."

Poseidon paused, his tone becoming heavy, "I'm not afraid to tell you, with her talent back then and my fondness for her, I originally intended to groom her as my successor and select her to serve as the first High Priest of Seagod Island after I ascended to the divine realm."

"But it was because of that irreparable mistake that I gave up on her completely."

A peerless genius who was personally selected by Poseidon, the god of the sea, and even prepared to be taught the position of high priest, was ultimately expelled from his master's school.

Nan Feng grew increasingly curious: "A big mistake? Just how big a mistake could it be that would make you, as his master, so angry?"

Poseidon remained silent for a full quarter of an hour.

Just when Nan Feng thought he didn't want to speak, Poseidon's deep, compassionate voice finally echoed in the sea of ​​consciousness:

"She...massacred an island."

"That is, the land you are standing on now—the predecessor of Purple Pearl Island."

"what?!"

Even Nan Feng was stunned, his relaxed expression instantly vanishing: "Why? Why go and massacre the island for no reason?"

“Because of fanaticism, because of that blind and extreme worship of theocracy.” Poseidon’s voice was filled with deep helplessness and self-reproach.

"In the ancient times 20,000 years ago, Purple Pearl Island was not the chaotic pirate and bandit den it is today. Due to its superior geographical location, it was once the most prosperous trade hub between the boundless sea and the land. Many land dwellers and land soul masters would take large ships to Purple Pearl Island to conduct some initial maritime trade with the sea dwellers."

"However, as I continued to perform miracles at sea, eventually reaching level 100 and becoming a god, and establishing an absolute belief system on Poseidon Island... things changed."

"For sea soul masters, the sea god is a faith, an inviolable and unique true god. But for those land people living on the continent, they naturally have no reverence for the sea god. In their eyes, I am at most just a powerful soul master."

Poseidon sighed and continued:
