Chapter 102: The Missing Piece.
Author: Fu Hejun
In the Video.
After briefly recounting the Lord Sea God's glorious deeds, Bo Saixi looked upwards and said, "This inverted object on the platform is the weapon that accompanied the Sea God throughout his life, and also where a portion of the Sea God's Power condenses. Pulling it out is your only assessment. Only with its recognition can you truly take the crucial step towards becoming the Sea God."
Neptune raised his head, his gaze focused on the black long pole standing at the center of the Sea God Platform. No wonder it looked like a staff; it turned out to be the Sea God Trident inserted upside down. This was the Trident's long shaft.
His gaze fixed on the Sea God Trident, Neptune walked towards the platform without hesitation, step by step. The Trident was inserted not only at the center of the Sea God Platform and the Sea God Temple, but also at the very center of the entire Sea God Mountain. It seemed as if the entire mountain existed for it.
Stepping onto the third layer, he finally faced the weapon left by the Sea God. The Trident's exposed long shaft was about ten feet long, as thick as a child's arm, and pitch-black and dull. One could only vaguely discern a layer of fine patterns on it.
Without hesitation, Neptune's nine Soul Rings appeared around him, and his essence, qi, spirit were raised to their peak in this moment. With a loud shout, he took a huge stride, arriving before the Sea God Trident. He raised both hands and gripped the Sea God Trident's long shaft with all his might.
At the same moment, the golden Sea God Trident mark on his forehead lit up. A concentrated beam of Sea God light shone upon the Trident's long shaft before him.
*Boom—*
From where Neptune's hands gripped, a faint golden light began to spread. Streaks of golden patterns, accompanied by the release of golden aura, started to diffuse across the originally jet-black long shaft…
At this moment, the scene suddenly transitioned.
It unexpectedly shifted to a place that appeared to be a warehouse, storing many seemingly very valuable items.
Everyone in the Live Stream Room was puzzled.
At this moment, the screen gradually zoomed in. One of the boxes violently shook, then its lid was flung open, revealing the item stored inside.
What appeared was an extremely strange item, entirely translucent blue and three-dimensional triangular in shape. The whole thing seemed to be carved from a sapphire, and was only palm-sized. Within its crystalline blue light, treasure aura misted, and strange energy fluctuations continuously emanated from it.
On this blue triangular object, water-like patterns rippled. These patterns didn't seem carved; rather, they looked alive, with circles of blue light flickering, causing the entire warehouse to be suffused with a faint treasure aura.
【Eh? This thing is…】
【Isn’t this the Heaven Dou Empire’s ultimate treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Cover?】
【So this warehouse is the Empire’s Treasure Vault?】
【This item has a mysterious origin. Now it seems, could it be related to Sea God Island?】
【Wait! Could this be the Sea God's Heart that was mentioned earlier?】
【Not sure… but it must be close, right?】
【…】
A series of Bullet Comments swept past.
In the Video, the spontaneously activated Vast Sea Cosmic Cover slowly floated up, then unexpectedly transformed into a golden light and flew upwards.
"Bang!"
The sturdy and heavy warehouse ceiling was completely unable to block this golden light, being easily pierced through.
After leaving the warehouse, this golden light shot up into the sky, flying towards the Great Sea. Its speed was astonishing.
At this moment, the video scene transitioned again, returning once more to the Sea God Temple.
Neptune still maintained the posture of gripping the long shaft with both hands, his body shining with azure blue radiance. The long shaft was slowly rising under his efforts.
Gradually, everyone in the Live Stream Room could already see the connecting point between the long shaft and the Trident head. These were ring-shaped connections, tightly interlocked, becoming thicker the closer they were to the Trident head. As the connecting point lifted from the ground, the triangular edge of the Trident head appeared, with a crescent-shaped pattern on each side.
From this position, it was clear that the Trident head was very large. The more Neptune pulled it upwards, the heavier the long shaft in his hand felt. In such a short time, he had unexpectedly begun to feel weak.
Gritting his teeth, he exerted all his strength!
A harsh friction sound rang out as the Trident slowly rose. From its triangular edge, extending outwards to both sides, were the sharply defined, thick and heavy bases of the Trident head, each about three inches wide. The true Trident head portion began to emerge from the ground.
The Trident, naturally, was three-pronged. The left and right prongs were relatively thin, while the central one was exceptionally wide, feeling almost like a sword. At the central connecting point below the wide halberd blade, there was a large rhombus-shaped hole, making the entire Trident look as if something was missing.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the Live Stream Room suddenly realized.
【I get it! That Vast Sea Cosmic Cover was probably originally a gem embedded in the Sea God Trident.】
【This should be the so-called Sea God's Heart, right?】
【It's just strange, this item clearly should be Sea God Island's ultimate treasure, so how did it end up flowing out and becoming the Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure?】
【This seems to be something that happens in the future, right? What do you think, if someone else were to take the Vast Sea Cosmic Cover to Sea God Island beforehand, could they inherit the Sea God's position?】
【You’re overthinking it! It's obvious that the Sea God's Heart is only one of the conditions for inheriting the Sea God's position. Possessing the Sea God's Heart does not mean one can become the Sea God's successor. The key is still aptitude, and whether the deity favors you.】
【If anyone truly takes this item to Sea God Island, it will 100% result in the Sea God's Heart being retrieved. Moreover, look in the Video, the Sea God can summon the Sea God's Heart back from the Continent, tens of thousands of miles away, from the Great Sea. It's clear that the true master of this item has always been the Sea God. It doesn't depend on who possesses it.】
【As long as the Sea God wishes, he can summon this item back at any time.】
【So that's how it is, I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't said anything…】
The Bullet Comment section was buzzing with discussion, everyone expressing their own opinions and stating their views. Because they were all anonymous, many open secrets were casually revealed.
In the Video.
Under Neptune's efforts, one-third of the Sea God Trident's Trident head had already been pulled out. All the patterns on the long shaft had been awakened; although the light wasn't strong, the golden patterns were far more magnificent than its previous jet-black appearance.
But upon reaching this point, it seemed as if it had encountered some challenge. Or perhaps, something crucial was missing.
The Sea God Trident could no longer be pulled out even a bit.
Neptune thus remained in a stalemate with it.
【Why does it look like it can't be pulled out anymore?】
【Could it be because the Sea God's Heart is missing?】
【Without the Sea God's Heart, is it impossible to pull out the Sea God Trident?】
【No way, is he going to fail at the last hurdle?】
A series of Bullet Comments swept past.
Fortunately, after a stalemate for a while in the Video, that missing "piece" finally arrived.
A golden light flew from afar.
As it arrived closer, the golden light dissipated, and a blue triangular object appeared, spinning rapidly. It was precisely the Vast Sea Cosmic Cover that had flown out from the Heaven Dou Treasure Vault by itself.
A miraculous scene appeared. The Vast Sea Cosmic Cover flew to the position of the Sea God Trident's rhombus-shaped hole, and its form changed. It unexpectedly transformed into a dark blue rhombus-shaped gemstone, its size perfectly matching the empty hole on the Sea God Trident. It then directly fell into the rhombus-shaped hole on the Trident that was exposed above ground.
*Hum—*
The air seemed to solidify. A burst of intense golden light instantly erupted from the Trident head. It was only then that Neptune and the Sea God Trident seemed truly connected, as golden magic patterns, exactly identical to those on the Trident, suddenly erupted from his body!
