Chapter 177: Begins The Inheritance
🕑 Added 2025-03-25 08:41:03 +0000 UTCSeeing Neptune’s sudden enlightenment, Poseidon smiled and said, “Nothing is ever sacrificed in vain. How could I not know what Bo Saixi had sacrificed? What I can do is to give her the power of eternal life. And eternal life of the soul is something that only gods can achieve. Although her body has not reached the level of a god, after her death, she can be equal to a god. Do you still think that her sacrifice was in vain?”
“It was not a sacrifice in vain.”
Neptune nodded, but then said, “But I don’t think this is what she wants. If given a choice, I think the high priest would rather stay in the human world and be with her loved ones forever, rather than go to the Divine Realm and live alone forever.”
“Living alone…”
When the Sea God heard his words, he showed a dazed look in his eyes, and then he actually nodded in agreement and said, “You are right. Life in the Divine Realm is much more boring than in the human world. Loneliness is the most terrible thing. When I was in the human world, I spent my whole life conquering the sea. I regretted it when I came to the Divine Realm because I was a lonely person. Moreover, I am bound by many rules here and cannot leave the Divine Realm easily. Staying in this place feels like being in prison.”
“So, I decided to pass on my throne.”
“This throne has already become a shackle to me now. It deprives me of my freedom. Only by passing on the throne can I leave the realm of gods and explore the unknown universe.” The sea god told the truth.
“Now that you know the truth about becoming a god, do you still want to inherit the throne?” He finally asked, “You still have a chance to regret it!”
“I don’t have a choice.”
Neptune said helplessly, “I don’t know when the meteorite will fall, so I must become a god as soon as possible to prepare. Besides, there’s nothing wrong with inheriting the throne. Even if I don’t inherit the throne of Sea God, I will definitely create my own throne in the future. After becoming a god, the ending will be no different from inheriting the throne of Sea God. At worst, I’ll do the same as you and find an heir to pass on the throne to him.”
“Okay, very good.”
The Sea God nodded, looked at him and smiled, “I have waited for so long, and finally I have found you. You have not let me down, and you are far better than I thought. After passing on the throne to you, I can leave with peace of mind.”
“Listen, your inheritance is divided into six parts, and you will experience different pains and tests. You must remember that no matter what kind of pain you go through, you must keep your original intention. Only if your faith is unshakable can you become the new Sea God!”
“I see!”
Neptune said seriously.
“Okay, no more nonsense.”
“The inheritance begins now.”
As he spoke, Poseidon’s eyes suddenly lit up, like two suns. Neptune felt as if his soul was sucked in at once. Everything around him became unreal. Countless golden mists rose in the air, and there were even golden bubbles. In the violent distortion, he had quietly lost himself.
With a flash of light, a huge golden ball of light appeared in front of the Poseidon’s chest. In an instant, the light shone brightly, and the entire Sea God Temple began to shake violently. In the crazy rhythm, it seemed to purify everything.
Buzz!
Neptune, who was lost in the golden light, disappeared in the explosion of this huge golden light ball, and the Temple of Sea God also recovered as the golden light dissipated…
After the vision disappeared, Poseidon let out a long breath, wiped the sweat from his forehead that was impossible to exist, looked at the place where Neptune disappeared before, and muttered to himself: “Finally, I have waited for a qualified successor. Boy, you must not let me down.”
…
There seemed to be a huge golden vortex surrounding him, and Neptune felt that everything he saw except the gold had disappeared.
Suddenly, the feeling of confusion disappeared in an instant, and the vortex-like golden light also disappeared, and he found himself on a circular platform.
The platform was golden, and a faint warm feeling came from under my feet. Around the circular platform was the boundless ocean. But what was surprising was that the color of the sea water was all golden, and even the sky was golden, which looked very strange.
Neptune looked around. He knew that this special space was definitely used to pass on the legacy of the God of the Sea.
Around this circular platform, diagonally above, there are six small circular platforms floating. They all appear to be about two meters in diameter and are scattered around the platform where Neptune is located.
Six small platforms?
The Sea God said before that he needed to pass six difficulties to complete the Sea God inheritance. It seems that it should be related to these six circular platforms.
While Neptune was thinking, layers of golden light like waves rushed over from the circular platform under his feet, all rushing towards his body, making him unable to move.
At this time, apart from being able to see with his eyes, he was unable to react at all, and even the flow of soul power in his body slowed down.
Suddenly, without any warning, a burning sensation suddenly came from his left arm, followed by a strong tearing sensation that turned into severe pain, causing Neptune’s eyes to go black!
Damn this feeling.
It was like someone had taken a knife and cut open his skin, cut open his muscles, and pulled his bones out! The most important thing was that he hadn’t been given anesthesia yet, so you can imagine how painful it was.
Fortunately, at this time, a golden light came. The Sea God Trident in his hand emitted a hazy golden light. Under the cover of this golden light, Neptune felt that the severe pain slowly subsided. Although it was still painful, it was at least within the tolerable range and he was not about to faint from the pain.
At the same time, one of the six small platforms surrounding the circular platform where Neptune landed flew out and floated one meter in front of him.
The platform was shining with beautiful wavy golden lines, but unfortunately, Neptune, whose soul bones had been dug out, had no time to appreciate them.
A golden light flew out from his left arm and landed on the small circular platform. It did not hit the small circular platform, but floated about 50 centimeters above it. It was a left arm bone emitting black light.
This is a 10,000-year soul bone, which comes with the fusion of the character. Because his original god-level character was second best, it is only a soul bone of tens of thousands of years. Not a 100,000-year soul bone.
At this time, Neptune suddenly found that he had regained his ability to move. At the same time, a reminder sounded in his ear, “The restraints will be removed. If you block the removal of the soul bone, the assessment will be forcibly interrupted. The consequence of the interruption of the assessment is the most serious annihilation. You are not allowed to leave the two-meter range of the center of the platform, and you are not allowed to change the main body position of your soul bone. Otherwise, it will be regarded as giving up the inheritance.”
“The sixth level is just about removing soul bones?”
“I always feel that it is not that simple. There must be other tests. Otherwise, it would be too easy to just endure the pain.” Neptune thought to himself.
