"It's been a long time, Poseidon-senpai."
Lin Chuan smiled and waved to Poseidon.
“It has indeed been a long time,” Poseidon said, suppressing her shock as her beautiful eyes scanned Lin Chuan’s entire body.
The more I looked, the more horrified I became.
She could no longer see through Lin Chuan's true nature, but she felt a vague sense of unease.
Keep in mind that she is a level 99 Limit Douluo; only a god could make her feel a heart-pounding fear.
Could it be that the other party has already...
Poseidon was startled by his own thoughts.
How could someone become a god so quickly in just a few years?
"Your cultivation level."
Lin Chuan smiled silently, "I've made some progress, but I hope Senior Poseidon won't laugh at me."
"I'm here to see Bing'er and the others."
Seeing that Lin Chuan did not intend to reveal anything, Poseidon did not press him for details, but instead extended an invitation in a gentle voice.
“Those children are still taking the assessment, but you can visit them anytime.”
"Let's go downstairs and talk later!"
"also!"
Lin Chuan nodded, and then he and Poseidon fell from the sky together.
"High Priest."
Several titled Douluo of the Holy Pillars arrived immediately.
Upon seeing Lin Chuan, everyone was surprised, but due to the vast difference in strength, they did not notice any change in Lin Chuan.
"It's nothing serious, you can all leave now!"
Poseidon waved her hand, and the Holy Pillar Douluos left in perfect unison.
At this moment, Poseidon turned to Lin Chuan and said, "Shui Bing'er and the others are still taking the assessment. I'll take you there."
Lin Chuan nodded with a smile, "Then I'll have to trouble Senior Poseidon."
The two arrived at the assessment location one after the other.
From afar, several figures could be seen tied to stone pillars, with waves surging in and constantly washing over them.
This is one of the Sea God's trials: the Tidal Body Refinement.
He ranked third in the Sea God's assessment.
It has only been nearly three years since Lin Chuan sent Shui Bing'er and the others to Seagod Island, so the assessment progress is not too fast.
Or rather, it was something they did intentionally.
After all, the assessment process is quite helpful for cultivation, so there's no rush to pass it directly.
Under his mental surveillance, everyone's aura became much stronger than before, which made Lin Chuan nod in satisfaction.
"Thank you very much, Senior Poseidon, for taking care of Bing'er and the others."
Poseidon shook her head slightly. "These children are all naturally gifted. What I and the Seven Pillar Guardians did was merely guide them."
"If they fail the assessment, we will not be lenient or make an exception for them."
"That's true, but since you've stayed here to provide rescue and done so much, you certainly deserve our gratitude."
Lin Chuan smiled, not taking it for granted.
The women were in pretty good condition, so Lin Chuan wasn't in a hurry and chatted with Poseidon instead.
Suddenly remembering something, Lin Chuan couldn't help but ask, "Senior Poseidon, I remember that the final test of the Nine Trials of the Sea God required you to sacrifice yourself?"
Poseidon's eyes flashed. "How did you know?"
“I have seen a deity before whose grandfather also died by self-sacrifice.”
Lin Chuan gave a simple explanation.
"Has anyone already become a god? What god?" Poseidon asked again.
"Angel God".
“So it’s the God of Angels,” Poseidon suddenly realized, then a hint of reminiscence appeared in her beautiful eyes. “I know the person you’re talking about; we can be considered old friends.”
"I didn't expect Qian Daoliu to have passed away first, but I guess her long-cherished wish has been fulfilled!"
Lin Chuan slowly shook his head, "I don't know whether Qian Daoliu's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, but he is definitely dead!"
"To be honest, I don't quite understand why becoming a god requires human sacrifice; it's just too strange."
Poseidon had also had this idea, but at the same time, he didn't understand it.
But since it was the sea god's decree, as the high priestess of the sea god's island, she had no choice but to obey.
Or perhaps, this was Poseidon's destiny.
"You've already become a god, haven't you experienced something like this?"
Poseidon couldn't help but ask.
Lin Chuan chuckled and shook his head, "I haven't inherited a godhood, and I'm not even a god yet. I've only broken through the hundredth level in soul power."
"However, that doesn't stop me from resisting this process. In the end, it's just that the sea god and the angel god have something wrong with their brains. They need someone to sacrifice to inherit their godhood. Where did they get such evil ideas?"
"You are not allowed to slander Lord Sea God like this!"
Poseidon, who had been chatting and laughing just moments before, suddenly became extremely serious.
He exuded an air of authority despite his lack of anger.
However, Lin Chuan was not frightened by Poseidon's appearance; instead, he shrugged indifferently.
“I’m just telling the truth. Only the sea god and the angel god would put people as sacrifices in the divine test.”
"The Earth God and the Sea God are both first-level deities, and there are successors, but there is no so-called high priest, so naturally no sacrifice is required."
"And the goddess of life does the same, which is why I don't understand this behavior."
There was one more thing Lin Chuan didn't say.
Even the Rakshasa God inherited by Bibi Dong did not require sacrifices from others, which proves that it is possible to become a god without sacrifices, but the Sea God and the Angel God do.
how?
Do you have to have someone die, and then create a whole tale of separation and death to force yourself to feel emotional?
Or is this behavior meant to temper the heart of the Soul Master who inherits the Divine Test?
It's disgusting no matter how you look at it.
Poseidon remained silent, unsure how to respond.
Seeing this, Lin Chuan also spoke up, "Senior Poseidon, are you really willing to sacrifice yourself like this?"
"You are already a level 99 Limit Douluo, only one step away from becoming a god. Don't you want to break through to level 100 and become a god?"
Upon hearing this, Poseidon was deeply moved.
She was extremely loyal to the sea god, but also cared about her own life, and at the same time, she longed to become a god.
However, her position as the High Priestess of Poseidon Island brought her both success and limitations on her progress.
Level 99 was the limit she could ever reach in her lifetime!
It's simply impossible to go any further.
Chapter 247 The Sea God Appears
The conversation froze instantly.
After a long pause, Poseidon finally spoke slowly, her voice sounding unusually cold and devoid of emotion.
"As the high priest of Seagod Island, my life and everything else belong to the Seagod. I would give my life for the Seagod."
"Come on!"
Lin Chuan immediately rolled his eyes.
That might fool others, but it wouldn't fool him.
Lin Chuan clearly sensed the resentment that Poseidon was showing.
"Senior Poseidon, are you really sure you want to?"
"Wouldn't you kill Bing'er during the assessment to save your own life?"
Upon hearing this, Poseidon's pupils constricted sharply.
