Under the manipulation of Bai Ye, the master of time management, three days passed without incident.
Anyway, Master Bai had a great time eating seafood, and it tasted pretty good.
No wonder it's seafood mixed with the blood of Poseidon, the god of the sea!
The Black Pearl sailed smoothly without encountering any more major storms, though there were some light winds and rain, which were not a big deal.
Braving the winds and waves.
Bai Ye and the others arrived at their destination.
It is a diamond island.
The long, narrow island stands in the azure ocean, radiating countless glittering stars that reflect off the sea, making it exceptionally beautiful.
"Is Poseidon's temple on this island?" Elizabeth exclaimed. "It's so magnificent!"
Diamond Island, like stars fallen from the sky, is full of captivating beauty.
“Of course not!” Angelica said, “Are you out of your mind? Poseidon’s temple must be incredibly majestic, but look at that Diamond Island, it’s flat as a rock. What could possibly escape our eyes? Where would we find Poseidon’s temple? I bet Poseidon’s temple is like Davy Jones’s Demon Prison and Sirona’s Island, another dimension overlapping this space.”
As she spoke, Angelica looked at Lucia.
Lucia nodded and said:
"That's right, Poseidon's temple does not exist in the real world."
Lisa Yin glared at Angelica and said:
"So how do we get into Poseidon's temple?"
“Those who have Poseidon’s permission can enter Poseidon’s temple.”
As Lucia spoke, he raised his trident in his hand.
Under the sun's rays, Lucia's trident gleamed.
As the trident shone brightly, Diamond Island shone brilliantly, as if in response to the trident.
In a daze.
Diamond Island gradually shifted from reality to illusion, as if it had vanished into the void.
When the Black Pearl arrived, Bai Ye and the others saw a road unfold on Diamond Island, like a deep, unfathomable rift leading to the unknown.
Angelica asked:
"Is the temple of Poseidon at the end of that great rift valley?"
“Hmm!” Lucia nodded, her expression rather aloof as she said, “The trident in my hand was forged by Poseidon himself, and it is also one of the keys to opening Poseidon’s temple. I’ve been here several times, so I’m absolutely certain that the end of that passage leads to Poseidon’s temple.”
"In that case, let's go in and take a look!"
Bai Ye smiled.
Everyone agreed and disembarked from the Black Pearl, landed on Diamond Island, and arrived at the Great Rift Valley, walking from there into it.
As the group walked into the Great Rift Valley, they soon discovered that the soil and rocks on both sides of the rift valley gradually turned into azure seawater. However, it seemed as if an invisible force was blocking the two sides, so the seawater did not soak in, forming an underwater passage.
"Could it be... that Poseidon's temple is actually hidden at the bottom of the sea?" Yin Libai guessed. "Actually, we're following this path to the deep sea?"
Lucia said, "That's true and that's not true. Poseidon's temple is not simply located in the deep sea, but in another dimension located in the deep sea. Without the right key, even if you dive to the deep sea, you will still find nothing."
"Oh, I see."
Lisa Yi suddenly realized.
These gods are indeed extraordinary beings; they wouldn't just place their homes haphazardly.
If Poseidon's temple were simply located in the deep sea, and were discovered by human divers, even if they couldn't enter, it would still be a hassle to gather a large number of people to worship there. Therefore, the temple stands directly in another dimension. Unless Poseidon himself takes a great act of kindness and wants to occasionally appear before people, ordinary people would never be able to find the location of his temple.
"Wow, this fish looks so strange!"
Jack Sparrow, through the water curtain, pointed to a strange fish that was almost entirely made of bones and couldn't help but say something.
"You're making a fuss over nothing!" Barbossa scoffed. "This is the deep sea, teeming with all sorts of bizarre creatures. What's a mere strange fish?"
Everyone knew that Jack Sparrow and Barbossa were always bickering whenever they were together, so they ignored them.
However, there were quite a few strange sea creatures to be seen along this passage.
A school of strangely shaped fish, a gigantic octopus, and several shadowy creatures resembling the Kraken... In short, the seabed is an extremely dangerous world. If it weren't for the passage opened by Lucia's trident, their reckless intrusion into this territory would likely have had a bad outcome.
All the way down.
At the end of the passage, the group could vaguely see the silhouette of a city.
However, two stone doors blocked their view.
Jack Sparrow and Barbossa tried to push the stone door, but it wouldn't budge.
“This stone door is so heavy!” Jack Sparrow rubbed his shoulder and wondered, “I feel like it would take at least a few hundred people to push it open.”
Lucia ignored Jack Sparrow's antics, went to the stone gate, found a mechanism, inserted her trident into it, and slowly turned it.
"Boom—!"
An ancient, moving sound came from the stone gate, and the door slowly opened.
The temple of Poseidon finally came into view.
"Wow--!"
Jack Sparrow originally wanted to express his feelings about seeing the Temple of Poseidon, but his shout got stuck in his throat!
Everyone was somewhat stunned.
Because Poseidon's temple was not at all as magnificent and luxurious as people imagined; on the contrary, it appeared rather desolate.
Dilapidated buildings are everywhere.
Collapsed stone pillars, impurities growing from the cracks, a scene of broken walls and ruins.
"Is this the legendary Temple of Poseidon?"
Jack Sparrow scratched his head in confusion and said:
"Have we gone to the wrong place?"
He would believe it if you told him it was some unknown beggar's den.
Of course, this is just a rant.
After all, the scene when we arrived was so grand, this must be the Temple of Poseidon.
The gap between expectations and reality is too large, which inevitably leads to disappointment.
"This place has obviously been neglected for a long time. It might even have been the site of a great battle. It's already quite impressive that it's still standing here. You're still being picky!"
Barbosa, as usual, retorted to Jack Sparrow.
Lucia ignored the two clowns and walked straight ahead.
In fact, Lucia had realized long ago that Poseidon was dead; otherwise, there wouldn't have been no Poseidon's miracles or children appearing on the sea for so long.
It's worth noting that Poseidon's promiscuity was no less than Zeus's. If, while Poseidon was still alive and the gods were active, it would have been perfectly normal for a child of Poseidon to occasionally appear on the sea.
Lucia simply couldn't believe that Poseidon had died so silently.
And so she became like an ostrich with its head buried in the ground, believing that as long as she didn't seek information about Poseidon or look for clues in the places where Poseidon had once stayed, Poseidon would live on forever in her heart.
Upon arriving at Poseidon's temple and witnessing its devastation, Lucia understood that Poseidon was indeed dead.
Lucia walked in front, with Bai Ye and the others following behind.
The further one walks inside, the more one can see the grandeur of the Temple of Poseidon. Even though almost all of the buildings are now collapsed, the sheer scale of the ruins reveals just how majestic the Temple of Poseidon once was.
It's a pity that the past is gone.
Of course, you can still vaguely see a lot of usable items in the ruins, which should be able to be exchanged for a lot of money if taken outside.
But Jack Sparrow and Barbossa, while greedy for money, were even more greedy for the beauty of the sea.
With the trident of the sea god, which can command the ocean and stir up boundless waves with a wave of its hand, right at hand, how could they have the mood to pay attention to trivial matters?
After passing many dilapidated palace buildings, Bai Ye and his companions finally arrived at a huge square.
In the square stood a huge stone statue with a large beard, a human upper body, naked with well-developed muscles, and a fish tail. It held a trident in its hand and looked quite solemn.
Without a doubt, this is an image of Poseidon.
“Poseidon’s lower body is also a fish…” Bai Ye stroked his chin and thought to himself, “No wonder he is with the Sirens and only Lucia is left. It turns out they are all the same kind.”
This stone statue is probably the only large building in this temple that is still relatively well-preserved.
Bai Ye and the others entered.
"Poseidon's Trident!"
As Jack Sparrow watched the group approach the statue of Poseidon, he immediately spotted the trident, which was entirely black yet shimmered with a ghostly blue light, standing before the statue.
"This is the Trident of Poseidon?"
Bai Ye also took a look.
It looks rather simple, but the shimmering light it emits reveals that it is definitely an extraordinary object.
"The trident of Poseidon is here... so where is Poseidon?"
Lucia frowned and couldn't help but murmur.
The trident of Poseidon, which he never parted with, was now lying here, and there were no remains of him around. This left Lucia wondering: was Poseidon really dead?
Jack Sparrow looked at the Trident of Poseidon, swallowed hard, and said:
"Boss, how about I try to pull out that Poseidon's Trident for you?"
This is the Trident of Poseidon! The Trident of Poseidon, capable of commanding the sea and making one the king of the sea. Jack Sparrow felt that if he could play with it, he would probably wake up laughing even if he died.
"Boss, Jack's clumsy, let me do it!"
Barbosa also stepped forward to try and grab it.
"You two? Heh, forget it!"
Bai Ye smiled and shook his head.
If those two bastards were to get their hands on the Trident of Poseidon, Bai Ye felt that the first thing they would do would be to turn against him.
