Chapter 157: Sea God Trident
Sea God Island.
On this day, the setting sun sank into the sea.
The horizon was dyed a magnificent crimson-gold by the afterglow of the sunset, with the rosy light spreading across ten thousand miles of ocean, and the shimmering waves dancing on the sea surface like scattered gold.
Sea God Temple.
In the center of the dim main hall, five figures stood quietly.
Their gazes were cast in unison toward the end of the hall.
There, a high platform stood imposingly.
In the center of the high platform stood a black long rod.
It was the handle of the Sea God Trident.
It was about one zhang long, as thick as a child's arm, pitch black throughout, with a layer of fine, intricate patterns faintly visible on its surface.
"Xixi, go for it!"
Ah Yin looked at Bo Saixi beside her, clenched her fists, and cheered her on.
Today, Bibi Dong and the other two women finished their Cultivate early.
Hearing that Bo Saixi was going to try to pull out the Sea God Trident, they all wanted to witness the demeanor of the Divine Artifact with their own eyes, so they came to the Sea God Temple together.
At this moment, Bo Saixi had a hint of undisguised nervousness in her expression.
Even though she was a super Douluo with Soul Power as vast as the sea, facing this Sea God Trident that weighed 108,000 jin, it was not so easy to pull it out.
That it required not only strength, but also the recognition of the Divine Artifact itself.
"Xixi, I believe you can do it." Su Mo stood beside her, smiling and encouraging her.
"That's right, Xixi, you can definitely do it!" Ye Qingshuang and Bibi Dong also chimed in.
Hearing the encouragement from everyone, Bo Saixi took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
She turned to look at Su Mo, a flash of determination in her eyes, and then strode toward the high platform.
Soon, she stepped onto the third step, facing the Sea God Trident that had been silent for who knows how many years.
Bo Saixi reached out her hands, closed her fingers, and gripped the trident handle tightly.
She gritted her teeth and exerted force with both arms.
However, the trident body only trembled slightly and was not pulled out at all.
Suddenly, the Sea God Trident mark on Bo Saixi's forehead lit up abruptly.
A Seagod's Light shot out from the mark and landed on the trident handle in front of her.
The trident trembled slightly.
Starting from where Bo Saixi gripped it, a golden light gradually spread.
On the originally pitch-black handle, those ancient and mysterious patterns began to glow with golden light, as if awakened from slumbering power.
At the same time, the temperature of the trident handle climbed rapidly, becoming as scalding as molten lava.
Intense burning pain came from her palms, and cold sweat streamed down Bo Saixi's forehead.
Under this scorching heat, blood actually seeped from her palms and flowed down the patterns of the trident handle.
But she still gritted her teeth and did not let go.
Because she knew very well that this was an opportunity she had worked so hard to get, and she must not give up easily.
She could not let down Su Mo's expectations of her.
Only by successfully pulling out the Sea God Trident could she hope to inherit the position of Sea God, become a true god, transcend the shackles of the mundane, possess near-eternal life, and stay by Su Mo's side forever.
This was her deepest desire and the motivation for her willingness to endure all pain.
Bo Saixi exerted force again, and her level 99 Peak Soul Power exploded!
Seeing the trident inserted in the Sea God platform, it emitted a low humming sound and was slowly pulled out inch by inch by her.
The pitch-black trident body gradually revealed itself in the air; for every bit more that was exposed, the patterns on the trident body glowed that much more.
However, when more than half of the trident body was pulled out, it seemed to have taken root, and no matter how much Bo Saixi tried, it could not be pulled out a single bit more.
Bo Saixi had received the Seagod Nine Trials later, and her affinity with the Sea God was not very high; the trident still had a very strong repulsive force toward her.
That she was able to pull it out this much was largely due to her own formidable strength.
Just at this moment, a figure appeared suddenly beside her.
It was Su Mo.
The aura emitted by the trident originally wanted to repel him, but the divine force within Su Mo circulated, and his powerful strength forcibly suppressed the repulsive force.
He reached out his large hand and grabbed the handle of the Sea God Trident.
Even though he had immunity to ice and fire, the temperature coming from the handle at this moment still made him feel it was scalding.
However, it did not affect him much.
"Xixi, I'll help you!" Su Mo said in a deep voice, his Soul Power exploding within him.
The two of them exerted force together, and the power of two Peak experts gathered together.
"Boom!"
The Sea God Trident finally continued to move outward.
The trident body continued to reveal itself until the trident shape at the tip gradually emerged.
Immediately, a diamond-shaped hole was clearly visible.
Seeing that success was imminent, the three women, Bibi Dong and the others, watched nervously, unable to help but hold their breath.
Just at this moment, a stream of light flew out from Bo Saixi's forehead; it was the Sea God's Heart.
It flew straight toward the diamond-shaped hole in the center of the trident, embedded itself precisely into it, and fit perfectly with the hole.
"In an instant, golden light erupted!"
The brilliant golden light illuminated the originally dim hall, and a sacred and majestic aura rushed toward them, surging in the hall like ocean waves.
A huge impact force spread out, directly knocking Su Mo's figure off the high platform.
"Su Mo!"
The three women, Bibi Dong and the others, immediately exclaimed and rushed up together.
"Are you okay?"
Bibi Dong was the first to rush to Su Mo's side, grabbing his arm with eyes full of concern.
"I'm fine." Su Mo steadied himself and shook his head.
The three women carefully looked Su Mo over, and seeing that he was indeed unharmed, they finally relaxed.
The four of them looked up at the high platform, their gazes returning to Bo Saixi.
On the high platform, Bo Saixi was still holding the trident handle tightly.
Her hands had lost too much blood, and her complexion was pale from blood loss, but her eyes remained bright and firm.
She knew that she had reached the final step now, and she must not give up.
The power within her poured out without reservation!
"Boom!!"
The entire Sea God Mountain actually began to tremble violently!
At this moment, above Sea God Island, thick dark clouds rolled in, shrouding the entire island in darkness.
However, just as the world dimmed, the Sea God Temple suddenly burst forth with golden light that shot into the sky.
That light pierced through the temple roof, shot straight into the clouds, illuminated the entire Sea God Mountain, and also re-illuminated the entire Sea God Island.
At the same time, the seven holy pillars of Sea God Island lit up simultaneously, and seven brilliant golden pillars of light shot into the sky, condensing toward the thickest golden light erupting from the Sea God Temple.
The eight golden lights gathered together, forming a pillar of light that attracted worldwide attention, tearing through the thick dark clouds.
The dark clouds dispersed, and a golden cloud appeared in the sky.
Above the clouds, a huge phantom gradually condensed into shape.
The people of the entire Sea God Island walked out of their homes one after another, looked up at the sky, and knelt down devoutly toward that phantom.
Thousands of strands of Power Of Faith, like trickling streams, gathered toward the phantom.
As the Power Of Faith continued to pour in, the face of the phantom gradually became clear...
