Douluo Continent: After Ten Thousand Years of Silence, I Was Exposed by the Sky.

Chapter 96 Instant Kill! Poseidon chickened out: I swear to God, the whole world is witnessing! (Please read on!)
boom--!
The earth-shattering collision resounded through the sky.

Faced with the Desolate Dragon Halberd that was cleaving down with a killing intent, Poseidon naturally could not simply sit idly by and wait to die.

Driven by the instinct for survival, Poseidon instantly burned all of her soul power.

The shaky phantom of the sea god behind him solidified to its fullest extent in an instant.

The deep blue light, like a tangible crystal, transformed into a massive deep-sea shield, lying between her and Wei Tianchen.

"Light of the Sea God, protect me!"

Poseidon let out a long, mournful howl.

However, the reality is cruel.

If facing an ordinary Limit Douluo, even if Qian Daoliu himself came and burned his angelic divine power, he might be able to block this attack.

Poseidon, after losing her faith in the sea god...

Poseidon could no longer use the divine power of the sea god within him.

To be precise, Poseidon's faith collapsed after he saw the heavens expose the despicable things he had done.

The divine sense of the sea god within the trident of the sea god detected it and immediately withdrew it.

Even if Poseidon wanted to use his divine power, he couldn't.

Yes, there is a divine thought of the Sea God within the Vast Ocean Universe Cover.

There's also one inside Poseidon's trident, which makes perfect sense, right?

Poseidon was facing Wei Tianchen, who wielded a divine weapon and whose combat power had reached the level of a quasi-god!
If it was before.

Poseidon is level 99, possessing near-god-like combat power thanks to divine power.

Although Wei Tianchen is a genius, he has not yet fully realized his potential and is only a level 97 Super Douluo.

After the appearance of the sky curtain, the roles of offense and defense shifted.

Poseidon's power level plummeted, rendering him unable to mobilize it and even causing him to lose his divine power.

The difference between the two is no longer the depth of their soul power, but a chasm in their level of life.

It is the insurmountable chasm between mortals and gods!
Click!

It was just a fleeting moment of contact.

That seemingly indestructible deep-sea shield was as fragile as paper in front of the dragon halberd, which was surrounded by a purple-gold aura of annihilation.

The purplish-gold light was domineering and incomparably powerful, carrying a terrifying aura that devoured all life.

It instantly tore through the blue defense.

The deep blue sky, like snowflakes meeting the blazing sun, couldn't even muster a decent resistance before being completely swallowed up by the purple-gold torrent!
"puff--!"

The backlash from the shattered shield, combined with the residual power of the Annihilation Dragon Spear, struck Poseidon as if he had been struck by lightning.

Poseidon coughed up a mouthful of blood, and her once noble and elegant body plummeted from the sky like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the wasteland below.

Boom!

The earth cracked, and smoke and dust rose everywhere.

A huge, deep pit, hundreds of meters in diameter, suddenly appeared, a truly shocking sight.

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the disheveled figure at the bottom of the pit was revealed.

The once aloof and immaculate Sea God Douluo now had disheveled hair, and his red robe, which symbolized the majesty of the High Priest, was tattered and stained dark red with blood.

Poseidon's face was ashen, his breath was extremely weak, his chest heaved violently, and each breath was accompanied by excruciating pain.

The power of annihilation entered her body and was frantically destroying her meridians and life force.

Tread, step, step.

The sound of steady, cold footsteps echoed from the void. Wei Tianchen, holding the Dragon Halberd, stepped down from the void.

Wei Tianchen was spotless, and his expression remained indifferent.

It was as if that strike was nothing more than casually swatting a fly.

But the killing intent in Wei Tianchen's eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

On the contrary, the sight of blood intensifies the feeling, a mixture of exhilaration and cruelty at the prospect of a great vengeance being avenged.

As Wei Tianchen pressed closer, Poseidon's pupils trembled, and an unprecedented sense of despair enveloped her.

Poseidon could clearly sense that Wei Tianchen truly intended to kill her.

Even when it was being broadcast live globally by SkyNet!

Is the Sun Moon Empire truly not worried at all that this will increase the resistance to their future invasion of Douluo Continent?
"Cough cough..."

Poseidon coughed violently, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.

She didn't want to die, she really didn't want to die!
She still had an unfulfilled wish; she still wanted to find the man she had waited for for decades!
Under the shadow of death, Poseidon endured excruciating pain that felt like her body was about to fall apart. Trembling, she clutched her chest with her right hand and, with the help of the scepter stuck in the ground, managed to stand up, her body swaying precariously.

Poseidon raised her head and looked down at Wei Tianchen, who had reached the edge of the pit and was looking down at her.

This time, Poseidon's eyes held no trace of the arrogance of a strongman, only endless pleading and a show of weakness.

“Wei…Wei Tianchen…”

Poseidon's voice was hoarse and weak, carrying across the desolate Douluo Continent through the sky.

Poseidon took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound sincere:

“Listen to me… cough cough… I have believed in and served the sea god all my life, that’s true.”

But ever since the heavens revealed his true colors, I've learned that this so-called 'god' is nothing but a hypocrite who steals fortune and betrays his promises!

Poseidon stared intently into Wei Tianchen's eyes, trying to find a trace of wavering:
"That's why I didn't hesitate to disband Poseidon Island!"

From that moment on, my faith collapsed!
I feel only hatred, not loyalty, towards that hypocrite!

"After that, I left Poseidon Island alone and came to this inland area, just to completely sever ties with the past."

Isn't that enough to prove my sincerity?

Seeing that Wei Tianchen remained silent, the dragon halberd in his hand flashing with cold light, Poseidon panicked and hurriedly continued to speak.

He spoke extremely fast, as if afraid the dragon halberd would strike down at any moment:

"If you think that's not enough... then look at what just happened! Just now!"

Poseidon pointed to the almost frozen list on the sky, tears welling in her eyes:

"I will compete with the experts of your Sun Moon Empire in a martial soul contest. Although I am injured, I am still level 99. I have absolute confidence that I can win the contest and get the reward!"

But I didn't!
I refused!

Even though I knew that doing this would be ridiculed by people all over the mainland and that I would be called a coward, I still did it!

why?
Because I don't want to win!

Because I don't want to have any further conflict with your Sun Moon Empire or your Wei family at this critical juncture!

When she got emotional, Poseidon's voice even trembled with a sob, a lament of a hero's demise:
"Right now... I'm just an ordinary woman who wants to live."

I just want to live a quiet life and find the person I've waited half my life for... I really don't want to be your enemy.

Poseidon took a deep breath, clinging to his last breath.

Facing Wei Tianchen, and also facing the billions of living beings behind the sky, he raised his blood-stained right hand and made a move that moved everyone.
