Gaze and you will become stronger: starting from Doupo
Chapter 372
Under the gazes of the crowd, Poseidon spun around in the air in a rhythmic manner. In an instant, the blue light outside his body swept out, spreading around like a surging sea wave. As the scepter in his hand danced, a huge vortex appeared on the Sea God Platform.
On the surface, the vortex looked a bit like a tornado, but it was definitely not the power of wind, because it contained energy fluctuations of water attributes. The vortex slowly rotated, emitting a mysterious and powerful aura, as if it was going to draw everything around it into it.
“Lord Poseidon, please allow your people to wake you up.”
Poseidon chanted a strange spell, and nine soul rings – black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, and red – lit up. The dazzling soul rings surrounded her, emitting powerful soul power fluctuations. At the same time, a majestic soul power fluctuation spread out with herself as the center, spreading to the surroundings like ripples, allowing everyone present to clearly feel the powerful force.
“Another super strong man!” Dai Mubai locked his eyes on Poseidon, feeling the endless soul power in the other’s body, and couldn’t help but move his throat. His eyes were full of amazement and awe. In his previous experience, such a strong soul power was rare. This made him realize once again that the world he lived in was full of strong people, and he still had a long way to go.
Then, when he looked at the young man next to him who seemed to be only in his 20s, an indescribable strangeness rose in his eyes. He really couldn’t imagine that this seemingly young master actually possessed a strength that was even more mysterious than Poseidon’s, which made him even more curious about Jiang Han’s identity and background.
As a prince of the Xingluo Empire, he had seen countless strong men since he was a child, but the highest soul power among them was only a Titled Douluo of level 93. But since he became the apprentice of the person next to him, in just three days, he had close contact with the King of Slaughter, Bibi Dong, Poseidon, and the -year soul beast, four super peak strong men, and even saw the ruler of the sea, the legendary Sea God! These few days of experience were like a fantasy dream to him, full of incredible adventures and shocks.
Not only Dai Mubai, but also Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing and others were also in a trance. In just one or two days, under the guidance of their master, they experienced too many grand scenes and saw things that others might never see in their lifetime. They were just children, but they had already experienced such an eventful life. They were excited but also a little overwhelmed.
As Poseidon cast the spell, the originally dark Poseidon Temple seemed to be lit up by the golden light. Both the walls and the roof were washed by a layer of golden magic patterns. The golden magic patterns were like mysterious runes, flashing dazzling light, adding a sacred and solemn atmosphere to the entire hall. The originally simple and plain looking hall was completely rendered in gold, as if it had become a magnificent temple.
Boom!
With a loud bang, an unprecedented sacred aura burst out from the vortex in front of Poseidon, turning into a huge pillar of light that shot up into the sky. The pillar of light was radiant, like a bridge connecting heaven and earth, emitting a shocking sacred power, covering the entire Sea God Temple Square in a golden glow.
“what–“
Suddenly, all the conscientious soul masters in the field roared to the sky, their expressions first painful and then relieved. Their bodies seemed to be impacted by a mysterious force, first feeling a sharp pain, then being filled with a warm and powerful force, that feeling was like experiencing a baptism of the soul.
“Lord Poseidon, this is Lord Poseidon’s divine power!”
Feeling the heat in their bodies, the sea soul masters exclaimed excitedly, looking at the light column in the vortex with extremely pious eyes. They knew that this was a gift from the Lord of the Sea, and their hearts were filled with gratitude and reverence for the Lord of the Sea. They all bowed their heads and prayed silently.
At some point, a golden trident mark appeared between the brows of all the sea soul masters, including Poseidon, releasing a sacred aura. The mark was like a mysterious mark, symbolizing the close connection between them and the Sea God, and also made them feel the sacred bond between themselves and the Sea God.
“Is this the breath of the sea god? It feels like swimming in the ocean.”
Feeling the breath of the blue light surrounding her body, Xiao Wu had a comfortable look on her face, and then looked at Jiang Han curiously: “Master, you are also a god, can you let us feel your power as well?” Her eyes were full of expectation, and she was full of curiosity about the power of gods. She hoped to experience the magical power of her master in person, just like she felt the power of the sea god.
“Look, the Sea God is out!” Jiang Han patted Xiao Wu’s head and pointed at the Sea God’s platform. There was a hint of calmness in his eyes, as if he was not too surprised by the appearance of the Sea God, but just quietly waiting for the next development.
The Seagod Platform began to shake violently, followed by the Seagod Temple, and finally the entire Seagod Island began to shake. The violent shaking was like an earthquake, which made people tremble with fear. The entire island seemed to be shaking for the coming of the Seagod.
This violent shaking lasted for ten seconds before it subsided.
On the Sea God Platform, Poseidon’s body had completely turned golden, and she knelt down in front of the huge pillar of light, with a pious look on her face, as if she was quietly waiting for something. Her posture was elegant and solemn, and she was completely immersed in the worship of the Sea God, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her. In her eyes, there was only the pillar of light that reached the sky and the power of the Sea God contained in it.
“Poseidon, what happened that requires you to wake me up?”
Suddenly, a deep, vigorous and majestic voice spread across the entire Sea God Island. Although the source of the voice could not be found, the voice seemed to fill every corner of the Sea God Island, including the sea, and shook people’s hearts. The voice was like a huge bell, making people involuntarily feel awe, as if it was a judgment from heaven that could not be questioned.
Before the majestic voice faded away, a huge golden shadow slowly emerged from the pillar of light that reached the sky on the Poseidon Platform.
The light and shadow were illusory, and the height was five times that of Poseidon’s body. It could be vaguely seen that it seemed to be a human wearing golden armor. The golden light was filled with endless grandeur. His whole body was covered with golden armor, but his face was completely illusory and could not be seen clearly. The golden armor shone under the light, exuding a powerful aura, as if it was forged by the power of God. Compared with the golden armor, the golden trident covered with patterns in his hand was more dazzling. The trident was just quietly held in the hand of the phantom, but it gave people a sense of power that could reach the sky and split the earth. The trident seemed to be the symbol of the sea god, representing his supreme authority. With just a slight wave, it could stir up the wind and clouds and destroy everything.
“Respected Lord Sea God, we are all your subjects. Please accept our offerings.”
Hundreds and thousands of sea spirit masters knelt down on the ground almost at the same time, looking up at the golden shadow in the light column, their devout eyes full of fervor. Their movements were in unison, like well-trained soldiers, they all lowered their heads and put their foreheads on the ground, expressing the highest respect for the sea god.
The same situation occurred in every place where people lived on Poseidon Island. The residents of the island walked out of their rooms without hesitation, knelt down in the direction of Poseidon Temple in the open space, and worshiped the golden shadow. The entire Poseidon Island seemed to have turned into a huge sacrificial site, and everyone was immersed in the reverence and worship of Poseidon.
The power of Poseidon can be seen thousands of miles away.
In the sea, all creatures felt the breath of the golden shadow. The moment the shadow appeared, the turbulent ocean suddenly became quiet, and all creatures in the sea stopped swimming. The sea soul beasts unconsciously turned towards the direction of the Sea God Island, trembling and worshiping respectfully. The calm sea surface was like a mirror, reflecting the golden light column in the sky, forming a strange and spectacular picture.
Even the 990,000-year-old soul beast, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, which was about to transform into a dragon and was healing its wounds, opened its huge single eye at this moment.
Unlike the respect in the eyes of other sea soul beasts, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King’s eyes revealed only unwillingness, and a hint of secret joy. It has always harbored resentment towards the Sea God, and the hatred of having one eye blinded has not disappeared. Seeing the Sea God appear at this moment, it is both afraid of his powerful strength and expectant, hoping that the Sea God will lose the battle with Jiang Han, so that it can reap the benefits.
“Have you two met? A battle between two gods, it would be best if both sides were injured and died.” Two figures appeared in the mind of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, one was the figure of a man who blinded one of its eyes ten thousand years ago, and the other was the man who almost cut off its body just now. It cursed in its heart, looking forward to a chaos so that it could gain benefits from it.
“Is this the Sea God? He is not as approachable as my master.” Ning Rongrong stared at the shadow in the light column and couldn’t help muttering. Her eyes were full of feelings after the comparison. In her heart, her master Jiang Han was kind and amiable, and it was easy and pleasant to get along with him. However, the Sea God in front of her exuded supreme majesty, which made people want to worship him subconsciously, giving people a feeling of being out of reach and not to be offended.
As a god, this sea god exudes supreme majesty, which makes people want to worship him subconsciously, giving people a feeling of being out of reach and inviolable. However, this master of mine is very kind, and there is no sense of oppression when getting along with him.
Hearing Ning Rongrong’s muttering, Dai Mubai, Oscar, Xiao Wu and others looked at each other, obviously agreeing with the former’s statement. They nodded silently in their hearts, and they deeply sympathized with Ning Rongrong’s feelings. After all, when they were with Jiang Han, they felt the love and care of their master, but the sea god in front of them only gave them a feeling of being high and mighty and difficult to approach.
“Master, what are those?” Looking at the strange scene around him, Tang San tilted his head to look at Jiang Han and asked, with curiosity in his eyes. His eyes closely followed the thousands of tiny golden rays, which were like mysterious silk threads, emerging from all directions, weaving a strange and spectacular scene.
Thousands of tiny golden rays emerged from all directions. Some of these rays came from every corner of Poseidon Island, and more came from the ocean. As these golden rays sank into the light column, the phantom holding the trident became more solid. The originally slightly illusory golden figure, under the infusion of golden rays, seemed to gradually become substantial, with a clearer outline and a more powerful aura, which made people feel awed.
“This is the power of faith, from the faith of all things in the ocean in the Sea God.” Jiang Han looked at Tang San and said calmly. His tone was flat, as if he was talking about something very ordinary, and he was already accustomed to this magical scene before his eyes.
“Lord Poseidon, he wants his seven disciples to go through your divine test.” Poseidon bowed respectfully to Poseidon and pointed in the direction of Jiang Han. Her movements were elegant and solemn, and her eyes were full of respect for Poseidon. She hoped that Poseidon would agree to Jiang Han’s request.
“Just for this, you woke me up? Have you forgotten what I told you?” Poseidon glanced at Poseidon calmly, and the thunderous sound carried supreme power. His voice was like a huge bell, echoing in the air, making everyone’s eardrums buzz, and the majestic tone seemed to blame Poseidon for his rash behavior.
“Master Poseidon, I will remember every word you said. It is not the examiner who chooses you, but you who choose the examiner.”
Poseidon immediately knelt down in front of the God of the Sea. She frowned when she said this, “But, he defeated the Deep Sea Demon Whale King… I had no choice but to wake you up.” There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes. She knew that awakening the God of the Sea was not a trivial matter. However, the strength displayed by Jiang Han was too amazing. He defeated the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, with whom she could only tie. This made her feel that perhaps only the God of the Sea was qualified to decide whether to give Jiang Han’s disciples the opportunity to take the divine test.
“Oh?”
Hearing what Poseidon said, Poseidon’s tone softened, and his golden eyes shot out two rays of light that fixed on Jiang Han, as if he was sizing him up. The golden gaze was like a real ray of light, as if it wanted to penetrate Jiang Han’s body, see through his essence, and explore who he was and how he could have such a powerful strength.
Seeing the Sea God looking in their direction and feeling his terrifying aura, Dai Mubai, Oscar and the others subconsciously stepped back and hid behind Jiang Han. There was a little fear on their faces. In front of such a powerful god, they instinctively sought the protection of their master, just like a young bird hiding under the wings of its parents.
“Poseidon, you’re looking at me like that, and you’ve scared my disciples.” Facing the Sea God’s gaze, Jiang Han put his hands behind his back, with a faint smile on his lips. There was a hint of ridicule in his tone, and he didn’t seem to be afraid of the Sea God’s majesty. Instead, he faced this legendary god with a relaxed attitude. (End of this chapter)
