Chapter 180: Divine Soul!
2023-04-04 Author: Fu Hejun
Under the embrace of surging Sea God energy, the torso armor completed its fusion with the limb armor, truly becoming a single, complete whole. All five elements were now present!
At this moment, Neptune could feel that he could use his armor to unleash the Great Five Elements Divine Light at any time, making his enemies pay a painful price. It was equivalent to gaining a powerful innate divine ability out of thin air!
And just after his limbs and torso had fused, on the last remaining platform, the head soul bone quietly floated up. A small vortex appeared around it, and the skull began to change… Dazzling blue-gold brilliance shone, and a miniature trident-blade shape emerged. Connecting the blades was a circlet, forming a blue-gold trident headband. In the center of the ring on the headband, there was a hollowed-out imprint of a small trident.
When it floated up and landed on Neptune's head, binding his long blue hair, the openwork pattern perfectly aligned with the Sea God Trident brand on his forehead. Instantly, an intense blue-gold radiance burst forth!
The Sea God Trident also underwent a change. The golden runes on its shaft completely lit up. Intense golden light mixed with the blue of the Sea God's Light, transforming into a dazzling blue-gold that spread to every corner of the shaft.
Simultaneously, the trident pattern on Neptune's Sea God headband also changed. As it aligned with his own brand, the pattern transformed into a small, diamond-shaped gemstone set in its center, making the blue-gold headband look even more perfect and brilliant.
In that instant, Neptune felt as if he had become the absolute core of this place. An intense blue-gold mist of light rose from around his body. As this mist grew ever thicker, it finally transformed into a blue-gold pillar of light that shot into the sky!
That surging energy fused with everything imprinted deep within Neptune's soul, creating an unprecedentedly vast power.
The blue-gold in his eyes gradually receded, returning to their original azure hue. Neptune could feel his soul undergoing a fundamental transformation!
Concurrently, even his main body and other clones benefited, their souls completely transforming into divine souls, something only god-level powerhouses possessed!
Before this, no matter how powerful his soul or how terrifying his spiritual power was, even if it surpassed that of an ordinary god, it was still fundamentally mortal. But now, with the transformation into a divine soul, his soul could permanently remain in this world even if it left the protection of his physical body, and it would not dissipate due to other factors.
An ordinary person's soul is like ice; it will gradually melt when immersed in water. A god's divine soul, however, is like iron and stone; even if continuously burned by flames, it cannot be completely destroyed. This is the difference between a divine soul and an ordinary mortal's soul!
A soul might be cultivated to become stronger than a god's, but it still cannot change its fragile essence; after leaving the protection of the physical body, it will gradually weaken under the influence of the outside world. But a divine soul will not; it is immune to external influences. This unique characteristic is the very reason gods are gods.
As the head soul bone transformed into a headband and landed on Neptune's head, the Sea God's Divine Armor, exclusive to the Sea God, was finally complete!
The divine armor of every god can be regarded as part of the god themselves. Because every piece of this armor was formed from Neptune's soul bones, it meant they fit his body perfectly. Even though they had now become armor, they were still a part of his body. This point would never change.
Boom!
Around the platform, the huge vortex suddenly burst. Incomparably violent energy transformed into a hurricane, sweeping across the circular platform and over Neptune's body and the Sea God Trident before him.
Neptune's expression became extremely calm at this moment. His right hand slowly rose, gripping the Sea God Trident that was blazing with blue-gold radiance.
The moment he gripped the Sea God Trident, a violent blue-gold flame suddenly surged up from his body. All the turbulence in the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
In the next instant, he raised the dazzling blue-gold Sea God Trident high above his head, pointing it straight at the heavens!
Rumble!
A massive suction force erupted from every pore of Neptune's body. The predominantly blue-gold Sea God's Divine Armor on him shone with an unprecedented, dazzling radiance!
The turbulence formed from golden seawater madly poured into Neptune's body from all directions at lightning-fast speed. A blue-gold flame surrounded him… From beneath his feet, rings of light slowly rose, one after another.
A powerful and ancient voice boomed from all directions, "The Sea God's Ninth Trial is complete. The Sea God's godhood has been perfectly inherited. The Sea God is reborn. The age of all soul rings is increased by fifty thousand years."
The soul rings rising from beneath Neptune's feet were breathtakingly brilliant!
The first soul ring to appear was red, wrapped in a layer of dazzling blue-gold. The second was the same, and so on, with no change all the way to the ninth soul ring. All were red at their core, wreathed in blue-gold light. Only the final ring to rise was different. That tenth soul ring, representing the power of a god, was entirely a dazzling blue-gold!
Hundred-thousand-year. All hundred-thousand-year soul rings.
Neptune's soul ring configuration, after his deification, was finally on par with his main body and other clones.
Originally, due to a lack of affinity, his soul ring configuration was the most ordinary two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. Later, after obtaining rewards from the Sea God's Nine Trials, his configuration changed to five black and four red. It was a slight compensation, but still lacking compared to his main body.
Now that the Sea God's inheritance was complete and the final reward had increased the age of all his soul rings by fifty thousand years, he had finally caught up. Especially that additional tenth soul ring—it was a true god-level soul ring!
Nine red and one blue-gold—this configuration would scare countless people to death if revealed, because ten soul rings signified the level of a true god!
At this very moment, Neptune no longer simply sensed power. The excessive expansion of his strength left only one concept in his mind: control. Yes, control over everything!
The Sea God Trident, held high above his head, would no longer revert to its dull black state due to insufficient energy. It had already been branded onto Neptune's soul, becoming a part of his body, just like the Sea God's Divine Armor that evolved from his soul bones. There was no longer any distinction between them.
"Hahahaha!"
Feeling refreshed, Neptune couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter. He waved the Sea God Trident in his right hand forward with a casual flick. The main blade, flashing with blue-gold brilliance, streaked through the air, and a rift instantly appeared in the now-empty space.
With a flash, he crossed directly through the rift. The surrounding scenery changed. His feet landed firmly on the ground, returning him to the Sea God Temple where he had previously met the Sea God. However, the temple was now empty, with no trace of the Sea God. Evidently, that fellow couldn't wait to leave after passing on his godhood.
