chapter 0526 part 3
Wherever the clear light passed, it rippled outwards, penetrating the seawater and spreading in all directions.
The surrounding fish, prawns, crabs, clams, and countless aquatic race were enveloped by the clear light. Their souls collectively left their bodies and merged into the clear light.
"No wonder there was such a big sea wave. So it's a divine artifact descending from the sky!" The woman looked at the black cauldron, her legs tightening in excitement. As the daughter of Amaterasu Ōmikami, one of the Eastern Ocean Sea Gods/Goddesses, she had seen many divine artifacts in Amaterasu's hands.
She was certain that even if all those divine artifacts were added together, they wouldn't be as formidable as this divine artifact! "This is a sign from the heavens! I, Toyotama-hime, am about to replace Amaterasu and become the Lord of Takamagahara!"
The woman looked at the black cauldron, unable to resist walking towards it step by step. Greedily, she placed her hand on the cauldron's body, gently stroking it. Lost in her enjoyment, she was completely unaware that her body was slowly being dissolved by the clear light.
The clear light penetrated her body, and as it rippled, her body also decomposed bit by bit. Soon, this Japanese female sea goddess disappeared within a patch of clear light.
Not long after the woman disappeared, the seabed returned to calm, leaving only the black cauldron lying quietly on the dead seabed.
Soon after, another Japanese god descended upon this place. When he entered that patch of clear light, his eyes also became crazed.
In the God Prison, Shen Tu and Yu Lei, the two brothers, looked at each other.
"What day is it today? Why are so many gods coming all of a sudden, and they're all Japanese gods? Did Taishan Fujun go to Fusang Island!"
"Don't worry about that for now. Let's escort them in first!" Yu Lei skillfully took out a rope and tied up the souls of the bewildered and dazed Japanese gods one by one, leading a string of ghost gods towards the Ghost Gate like livestock.
"This is..."
The Dragon King, with a dragon head and human body, hovered in the sky. As far as his eyes could see, he saw a patch of clear light beneath his feet.
As the clear light flowed, it enveloped and devoured the souls of countless aquatic race—
The Dragon King looked at the continuously expanding clear light, his limbs turning ice cold. At this time, the clear light had expanded to over two hundred miles from where he had just arrived.
Not only were the souls of the aquatic race devoured, but even the souls of nearly a million living beings on the nearby Fusang Island were also devoured by it.
"What kind of demonic creature is this? It's so terrifying!"
Seeing that the clear light was about to spread to the sea area he ruled, the Dragon King was helpless. He watched with his own eyes as more than a dozen Japanese gods entered that patch of clear light and were instantly reduced to nothing. This terrifying scene made the Dragon King hesitate.
He hadn't tried to find the source of the clear light. He glanced at the broken treasured sword in his hand and could only sigh.
"This is not some demonic creature. This is the divine artifact that Taishan Fujun wields to govern the Underworld!" A woman in palace attire with a majestic and cold demeanor appeared beside the Dragon King. Her gaze was fixed on the center of the clear light, as if she could see the black Netherworld Cauldron.
"This humble god greets the goddess!"
Seeing the woman's figure, the Dragon King did not dare to be slow and quickly bowed in salute.
The Queen Mother of the West glanced at him and nodded slightly.
"Goddess, you mean, below is Taishan Fujun's treasure cauldron!" The Dragon King looked at the sea area that had become a dead sea, his jaw dropping in surprise.
As the Lord of the Four Seas in this world, although the Dragon King's strength was not absolutely top-tier, in terms of identity, he could sit on equal footing with Acha, the Underworld King. Moreover, compared to Acha, who became the Underworld King halfway,
The Dragon King knew many ancient secrets, including who was the true master of the Land of the Departed before the Underworld King, and that Taishan Fujun possessed that treasure cauldron.
It was precisely because of this cauldron that during the conflict of the ancient gods, that Taishan Fujun surpassed her! Thinking of this, the Dragon King subconsciously glanced at the Queen Mother of the West: "Goddess, how could Taishan Fujun's treasure cauldron appear in the Mortal Realm's water area, and even emit such radiance? If it continues like this, the entire Mortal Realm might directly turn into a dead land!"
"This cauldron has been held by Taishan Fujun since his birth, never leaving his side. The fact that this cauldron is here is naturally because he is dead!" The Queen Mother of the West said lightly! "Hiss!" The Queen Mother of the West's words made the Dragon King gasp. Who in this world could kill Taishan Fujun? He was a true Ancient Great God, unless it was—
The Dragon King lifted his eyes, cautiously glancing at the Queen Mother of the West. If anyone could possibly kill Taishan Fujun, it was no one else but the one before him! The Queen Mother of the West glanced at the Dragon King, seemingly guessing his thoughts. She said faintly, "It wasn't me!"
"Goddess, please forgive me! This humble god was making wild guesses. It's just that in this world, the only one who can surpass Taishan Fujun is you, Goddess!" Seeing that his thoughts were seen through, the Dragon King quickly bowed and apologized, while also flattering her.
The Queen Mother of the West sighed slightly: "There isn't anyone in this world, but what about in the sky?"
Hearing the Queen Mother of the West's words, the Dragon King's heart tightened. He looked up at the sky. That sharp sword that spanned the stars was still hanging high there.
"Goddess, was it that person from outside the domain who took action!?" The Dragon King swallowed.
"Half an hour ago, he killed Taishan Fujun in front of me. Oh, and that little fellow named Taotie is your son, right? He also fell into his hands. Whether he's alive or dead, I don't know!"
The Queen Mother of the West glanced at the Dragon King: "If you want revenge, it might be a bit difficult!"
"Goddess, please don't joke with me anymore. Although Taotie is my fifth son, for so many years, he has been doing evil in the Mortal Realm. I have long wanted to kill this wicked son! Since that one took action, it saves me the trouble of dealing with him myself!"
The Dragon King waved his sleeve, constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead. Revenge? What a joke. He had personally seen that palm from outside the heavens crush the Tong Ming Beast into a little cat! Now, hearing from the Queen Mother of the West that even Taishan Fujun was killed by that one, let alone revenge, even if that rebellious son were alive, if he dared to offend such an Important Figure, he would immediately sacrifice kinship for righteousness and personally kill that rebellious son.
The Dragon King felt a chill run down his spine to his neck, making his neck feel cold. What he was worried about now was not anything else, but how that rebellious son had offended that existence, and whether this matter would implicate the Dragon Palace.
A slender, fair hand quietly stopped at the Dragon King's neck. Upon hearing the Dragon King's words, that hand quietly retracted.
