Chapter 348: To Prove Your Loyalty, Commit Suicide
Divine power varies in strength, not to mention that Bo Saixi was merely borrowing someone else's power at this moment.
As the Great Priestess, Poseidon granted her the authority to control the sea, but that did not mean she truly possessed the full privileges of a Sea God.
At most, she only had secondary access to divine power and laws. The great power she wielded came indirectly from Poseidon's divine energy, which carried with it the law based authority of the Sea God.
Was Sea God's Light powerful?
The answer was yes.
Any god capable of forging their own divine position was undoubtedly blessed with exceptional talent. Although Poseidon was called the Sea God, the laws he governed included Water, Light, and Wind.
After all, relying solely on the Law of Water would never have made him so powerful.
Sea God's Light was one of his signature abilities, aside from directly manipulating the Law of Water. It was not just an application of the Law of Light it also borrowed some of the authority of his divine position.
It symbolized Poseidon's divine might. Although it lacked direct offensive capabilities, it could intimidate all marine creatures and sea spirit masters.
Of course, the restriction to ocean life was merely self imposed to avoid unnecessary conflict. In reality, it affected all beings with a lower divine status than Poseidon.
To put it simply, this attack relied on divine ranking, augmented by the Law of Light a type of implicit rather than overt aggression.
It was akin to an enemy collapsing under sheer intimidation, with its effects primarily targeting the soul and mind rather than the body.
Unfortunately, wasn't this just perfect for Han Li?
Had this been the true version of Sea God's Light, he might have truly struggled to resist it, especially since his Ice Fire Dragon King Godhood was damaged.
But the one casting it wasn't Poseidon it was Bo Saixi.
A bootleg copy of the real thing. And worse yet, it wasn't even complete.
Han Li's dual godhood of Ice and Fire may have been incomplete, but it was still real unlike Bo Saixi's borrowed authority.
Moreover, he was the master of the Douluo Plane itself.
Technically speaking, even if he had no strength whatsoever, his status alone would warrant a Level 2 Divine Rank the moment he was taken to the God Realm.
So, Bo Saixi had just slammed headfirst into an iron wall.
Worse yet, the power she was borrowing belonged to Poseidon himself.
This was exactly why Poseidon had hurried away during Han Li's previous visit to Rong Nianbing's estate.
Because of his investment in Han Li, Poseidon had been paying attention. Even though Rong Nianbing's explanation had been deliberately vague, he had at least informed Poseidon of one crucial fact
Han Li was the Master of the Douluo Plane.
During their last encounter, Poseidon had been unable to interfere due to restrictions from the God Realm.
Moreover, his Sea God's Heart had been placed outside his inheritance grounds on Ye LingLing, not within Sea God Island itself.
This greatly limited his ability to wield divine power.
But the moment Bo Saixi activated her Sea God Martial Soul and released Sea God's Light, everything changed.
She was on Sea God Island.
She had triggered his authority.
And the power she was using belonged to him.
At that moment, Poseidon realized everything.
Shit.
That was probably the most accurate summary of his thoughts.
Not only had Bo Saixi failed to find a suitable successor, she was now using his own authority to attack Han Li, someone he had just invested in.
Was she insane?
Did she think he hadn't already lost enough?
At that moment, Poseidon was racing at full speed toward his divine estate.
Meanwhile, Over the Douluo Sea
Sea God's Light flashed, unleashed from Bo Saixi's Sea God Martial Soul, and shot straight at Han Li.
Yet, Han Li did not even attempt to dodge.
The moment Bo Saixi borrowed divine authority, Han Li had already analyzed the nature of the attack.
Had it been a Law based or Energy based attack, he might have had some concerns.
But a Status based and Soul based attack?
He had zero fear.
So, he let the beam hit him.
At the same time, his left hand stretched forward.
This movement yes, he copied it.
It was directly stolen from Gaara's Sand Coffin technique.
After all, he had always thought that move was incredibly stylish.
Now, he was simply replacing sand with water.
After all
The ocean was his domain, too.
The blazing blue Sea God's Light crashed into Han Li's body.
At the same time, a massive current of ice chilled ocean water surged upward, forming a titanic hand that seized Bo Saixi mid air along with her Sea God Martial Soul projection.
Bo Saixi's Perspective
Bo Saixi smiled.
She hadn't fully revealed her emotions, but she was undeniably smiling.
In her eyes, revenge had been achieved.
Sea God's Light was unstoppable.
Even the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, which had once challenged Poseidon himself, avoided it at all costs.
Why else did it keep its distance from Sea God Island?
Even though she was currently restrained by Han Li's oceanic grip, she had already envisioned the outcome.
Once this battle ended, she would still be the supreme High Priestess.
That girl, Ye LingLing, would never take the Sea God's position from her.
She had already won.
Yes
It was over.
Or at least, she thought so.
Unfortunately, reality did not care about her delusions.
Sea God's Light came fast
And dispersed just as quickly.
Principio del formulario
As the blinding radiance faded, Bo Saixi's smile froze on her face.
What did she see?
Han Li, who had taken Sea God's Light head on, still stood there smiling. No, he was even walking forward at a slow and steady pace. Not a single thread of his clothing had been damaged by the attack, as if he had merely basked under the sun for a moment.
Yet Bo Saixi could clearly feel it the water currents restraining her had tightened even further.
She struggled desperately, attempting to use the authority granted to her by Lord Poseidon to dismantle the oceanic hand restraining her.
But it was useless.
"What are you smiling at? Do you think this battle is already decided?"
"Or do you actually believe you can escape from my grasp?"
Han Li's voice was gentle, as if he were lulling a baby to sleep but to Bo Saixi, it thundered like a divine decree from the heavens.
She opened her mouth, trying to say something, but Han Li didn't even give her the chance.
"Now, it's my turn."
As his left hand moved, the giant watery hand gripping Bo Saixi suddenly lifted higher, rising at a speed that felt unreal.
In the distance, the Seven Sacred Pillars and the Demon Spirit Great White Shark all had the same thought
The High Priestess… was actually losing… on the ocean.
And then
They saw it.
Once the water hand had reached a certain height, it smashed down onto the ocean surface hard.
That wasn't even the worst part.
As soon as the water hand made contact with the ocean, the sea beneath it turned to ice.
BOOM!
A violent collision echoed through the air. Again. And again.
Trapped inside the water hand, Bo Saixi and her Martial Soul Avatar were repeatedly slammed against the frozen ocean surface like a broken ragdoll.
Han Li stopped moving forward, watching the scene unfold with great amusement.
The murderous intent within him gradually dissipated
After all, this scene resembled the Hulk smashing Loki into the ground.
The sight was deeply therapeutic.
At this moment, Bo Saixi was completely conscious.
She wanted to speak but her open mouth was immediately filled with water, blocking out even the slightest sound.
Every time she was slammed down, the soul power protecting her body shattered, causing her to experience the full impact.
Each time, the force was perfectly measured
Enough to make her suffer unbearable pain
But not enough to knock her unconscious.
She could only watch helplessly as her injuries worsened bit by bit.
She wanted to withdraw her Martial Soul Avatar she could endure this humiliation, but her Martial Soul was the Sea God himself.
To have it disrespected like this…
But she couldn't.
Han Li's control over the force was too precise.
So, she had no choice
But to be played with like a mere toy.
At this moment
She regretted everything.
"Release the High Priestess!"
Behind Han Li, after a brief moment of shock, the Seven Sacred Pillars and the Demon Spirit Great White Shark couldn't stay silent anymore.
They knew they were no match for him
Just look at what he had done to Bo Saixi.
But their faith compelled them to attack anyway.
Without hesitation, the Seven Sacred Pillars activated their Martial Soul Avatars, immediately unleashing their most powerful attacks toward Han Li.
Han Li, however, was completely unfazed.
His smirk turned wicked as he turned to face the incoming eight attacks.
Without hesitation, he moved the water hand forward
Placing Bo Saixi and her Martial Soul Avatar right in the path of their attacks.
"You're too noisy. Maybe this will shut you up."
The Seven Sacred Pillars and Demon Spirit Great White Shark watched in horror
As their own full force attacks slammed directly into Bo Saixi.
BOOM!
The Sea God like Martial Soul Avatar was badly damaged, its radiance flickering unstably.
Despite this, it somehow managed to persist but Bo Saixi herself…
Although her Martial Soul Avatar took the brunt of the impact, the backlash was unavoidable.
Her body trembled violently as blood poured from her mouth, staining the water gagging her in a twistedly eerie sight.
"High Priestess!"
"Lord Sea Cucumber!"
Two completely different cries of panic rang out from the other side.
Yet now, the Seven Sacred Pillars and Demon Spirit Great White Shark did not dare attack again.
The radiant Sea God Avatar, which once represented their ultimate faith, now felt more like a mockery.
Han Li's Wicked Amusement
The High Priestess, restrained…
The Sea God's Avatar, beaten…
At this moment, Han Li's twisted sense of humor was on full display.
"Tell me who disrespected the Sea God?"
"Now, everything is even."
Then, his voice grew eerily calm.
"To prove your faith and loyalty to Lord Sea God…"
"Why don't you all commit suicide?"
His words, woven into the very vibrations of the ocean, echoed ominously
Sending shockwaves through the hearts and minds of the Seven Sacred Pillars and Demon Spirit Great White Shark.
Unlike Spirit Hall, where only the Angel Clan had religious fervor
Sea God Island was entirely built upon faith.
Han Li's words pierced them like a blade, straight into their very souls.
Meanwhile, in the God Realm
Poseidon had finally returned to his Sea God's Divine Palace.
Through Bo Saixi's Martial Soul Avatar, he had heard everything Han Li just said.
