Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 421: Can reconciliation be possible?
Climb! Climb! Climb!
Amidst the storm, crimson battle aura surged wildly!

A deep, thumping heartbeat came from Chen Qi's chest. The scarlet tentacles behind him suddenly expanded to ten meters, like a dancing ribbon in the air. With the release of his crimson form, he was like a mad beast!

"That's it! That's all? Poseidon, you've made me even more excited! Excited!"

Poseidon has changed from being the attacker to being the defender.

The crimson blade energy gradually eroded Chen Qi's reason, driving him into a state of madness.
"Keep dancing! Poseidon, you're not even as good as a tiny crab right now!"

As one of the four emperors of the pirates, the Sea God at this moment could not even fully excite Chen Qi!

Crab, how dare you insult me, a little crab! The sea god, his face flushed from the frenzied attack, manipulated the spears of storm and waves to fend off the barrage of attacks.

However, faced with this colossal form, the sea god, who had unleashed the power of the cup, found his aura growing weaker and weaker.

The Cup-type extraordinary individual possesses extremely strong physique and recovery ability; however, the chilling aura of the Rift Blade and the healing-inhibiting effect of tearing flesh and bones greatly diminish her unique characteristics!
However, as things continued, my physical strength ultimately prevailed... Poseidon thought to himself.

Under the high-intensity liberation mode, Chen Qi's physical strength was also constantly being depleted.

His movements slowed down, and numerous openings began to appear amidst his dense attacks—

"Hunter, your spiritual energy field is indeed beyond my expectations, but it's not enough, not enough, still not enough!"

"Far from enough!"

The sea god had lost all reason; he was more like a mad monster than an elegant sea goddess.

She simultaneously condensed the spears of waves and storms in both hands, bringing them together to form an even larger spear!

The power of storm and wave unites!

This strike will surely pierce the Black Hunter's heart!

Poseidon seized a fleeting opportunity and unleashed a torrent of spears from his hand!

brush!
Storms and waves converge, forming a hundred spirals, rushing towards dawn—

His strength was already depleted; this attack was enough to seriously injure him! The moment Poseidon shot out his spear, his face flushed, and a smile of extreme excitement appeared on his lips.

However, in that very instant, a vibrant green appeared in the spiritual energy field in her vision.

This vibrant spiritual energy, like a gentle spring breeze, gradually caused Chen Qi's scarred wounds to sprout blood-red buds like seeds!
Chen Qi's expression turned cold, and a powerful life force surged through his muscles.

In that instant, the lost spiritual energy was restored!
Fern's life energy can be transformed into the life energy of plants and itself, and this energy can be transferred rapidly.

This kind of cure far surpasses that of ordinary doctors.

However, under normal circumstances, the perfect use of this technique requires close skin-to-skin contact.

Even without physical contact, this life energy still greatly replenished Chen Qi's spiritual power.

"Blade dismemberment. Sacrifice my flesh and blood—"

Chen Qi adjusted his breathing, held the burning giant blade horizontally in front of his chest, and did his best to resist the storm and wave spear of the sea god.

Break its tendons and bones!

Crackling thunder echoed from Chen Qi's body as the immense power of the Sea God struck his limbs and even his internal organs.

Sacrificing one's flesh and blood is a parrying technique; the stronger the enemy's attack, the stronger the counterattack.

clang!
Chen Qi absorbed this immense power entirely with his Unleashed power, then twisted the blade and returned it all to the Sea God.

clang!
"Everyone, be careful!"

"Watch out for the parry!!"

Hagrid and the Archbishop stepped forward, resolutely protecting the Sea God Pirate Crew followers behind them.

The storm, the waves, and the crimson blade energy converged and then exploded, transforming into an even larger storm!

The airflow exploded, causing landslides and earthquakes.

Faced with this enormous impact, many of the pillars of the abyss have already suffered severe damage.

The massive plume of smoke slowly dissipated, and the duel between the two gradually came to a halt, returning to calm.

"call--"

Finn and Isa stared wide-eyed.

In the very center of the battlefield, both Chen Qi and Hai Shen were covered in wounds.

“Hoo, ho, ho—”

Chen Qi stopped the release of the crimson form, used his long sword to support himself on the ground, and retracted the wildly flailing tentacles behind him, returning them to the core of the Ember Touch.

The face of the sea god was covered with wounds, the six wings behind him were broken, and the liberation of the cup had also ended.

Qi...Fen's eyes widened.

Judging from the current situation, Chenqi and Haishen are at least evenly matched.

Plop!
Poseidon's strong legs trembled uncontrollably, and he could no longer stand.

To avoid the humiliation of kneeling, the proud woman had no choice but to lie down on the ground, resulting in an extremely humiliating posture!

"..."

"how is this possible?"

Blood streamed from the sea goddess's eyes; even in her sea goddess form, she couldn't overcome the Black Hunter's Blade Break.

Having spent too much time training underwater, her combat skills are still too weak.

Phase Two, over! Chen Qi raised his head and spat out his bloodied teeth.

Although the battle lasted a short time, he was in a state of complete liberation throughout, and his spiritual power and physical strength were already mostly exhausted.

His heart was pounding, and his muscles were aching like never before!
Both sides have burned out.

Damn it, damn it… The sea god gritted his teeth and stood up again with difficulty.

Even the high-ranking members of many pirate groups were shocked.

They never imagined that, without the Ice Witch's intervention, the holy, proud, and terrifying sea god in their hearts would one day reveal such a shameful side!
Moreover, it's because of the low-level skill "Charm" which is a flower-like charm.

The sea god's anger gradually subsided.

Faced with the hunter before her and the witch who had just healed Chen Qi, she had to come up with a new plan!

Chen Qi stood up again and said sarcastically:
"Poseidon, what's wrong? Are you failing?"

Chen Qi took a deep breath.

This sea god, one of the four emperors, has seriously lost control of his emotions. Provoking and attacking him is undoubtedly a good tactic.

Everything was for the greater good… Poseidon looked at the expectant members of the Poseidon Pirate Crew, raised his head, and coldly snorted:
"Heh, hunter, you don't actually think this is my true power, do you—"

"I'm perfectly fine, completely... fine..."

As he spoke, crimson blood trickled from the corner of the sea god's mouth, dripping onto the ground.

This boss is really stubborn... Chen Qi quickly adjusted his breathing.

With a snap!
Poseidon forcefully straightened his injured bones, once again adopting his arrogant expression, and smiled slightly:
"However, although your power is insignificant in front of me, it is already powerful enough for a struggling ant."

"Hunter, you have earned my approval! For this, I am willing to give you an opportunity, a chance to join our great cause and rule this sea..."

At the same time, I'm also willing to tell you the truth about this ocean!

"I'm willing to give you a chance to reconcile!!"

Isabella paused for a moment.

Poseidon wants to lure the Black Hunters to join them!

In Isa’s eyes, Poseidon’s three-meter-tall stature, perfect figure, and extraordinary charm were captivating!
In the vibrant kingdom of golden flowers and birds, this woman could even surpass the giant bat girl, who weighs 500 pounds, and win the city's beauty pageant!
Moreover, as one of the four emperors of the Sea God Pirate Crew, he indeed possessed unimaginable wealth.

If the Black Hunter is tempted, the consequences will be unimaginable! Black Hunter… Isa panicked.

I'm used to it, I'm used to it... Fen is completely unfazed. Along the way, she has encountered countless organizations trying to seduce Chen Qi!
However, until now, without exception, Chen Qi has chosen her without hesitation!

Thinking about it that way, Qi does seem to possess charm magic, but even without charm magic, Qi can still seduce people… Finn proudly puffed out her chest and gently patted Isa:
"Don't worry too much, Sister Isa, Qi is ours..."

"Ah."

Isa tilted her head and nodded.

At this moment, the archbishop and Hagrid, who had been engrossed in watching the battle, finally came to their senses.

It seems there are two traitors among them!
"Hagrid, it's a witch! Attack her!"

"I understand, witches. I, Lord Hagrid, will teach you a lesson..."

Hagrid found an opportunity, took out his trident, and aimed it at Finn's head.

Just then, a faint voice came to his ear:

"You dare to lay a finger on her?"

In that instant, Hagrid's spiritual intuition seemed to see his own neck broken and his body shattered like tofu, falling into pieces!

"Black Hunter..." Hagrid gripped his neck, a bead of cold sweat instantly forming on his forehead. He put down the trident and said with a smile:

"Would you two like some dried fish?"

After saying that, he obediently handed the two of them the dried fish he had secretly hidden in his pocket.

"..."

Isa and Finn were stunned.

"Hagrid..."

The sea god watched this scene without correcting the other party's cowardly act.

After all, her goal now is reconciliation, not to continue fighting!
At this moment, she had exhausted most of her spiritual power. If she were to continue using the spiritual power of the Abyss Pillar, she could indeed easily crush the three people in front of her.

However, her ascension ceremony will be postponed for several months—

And her ambition to rule the sea will completely vanish like bubbles.

The sea lilies behind Neptune bend and form a small chair.

She straightened her disheveled long skirt and sat down gently:

"Black Hunter, why do you serve the Ice Witch? Let me guess, as expected, it's to become a Saint, just like I did back then..."

To buy time... Chen Qi gripped the blade and swallowed a mouthful of water.

Judging from the flow of spiritual energy in the pillars of the abyss here, the sea god can draw upon the immense power within these pillars!
As the final boss of the Poseidon Pirates, Poseidon is by no means easy to defeat.

Poseidon has an unprecedentedly perfect phase.

This state of Poseidon is his true, complete form.

At this stage, he, Finn, and Isa must join forces to win!
Therefore, like the sea god, he needed to buy time.

Chen Qi glanced at Fen, signaling her to prepare to replenish her energy.

At the same time, he manipulated the near-shore overlords in the river, looking for an opportunity to launch a final all-out attack.

Fen took a deep breath, preparing to expend her lifespan and use the highest-level life magic she could to restore Chen Qi's state.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Qi looked at the Sea God without saying a word and continued to adjust his breathing.

Poseidon snapped his fingers and said calmly:
"You've tacitly agreed, haven't you, Black Hunter? To be honest, I've been seeking the path of God for half a century, a full fifty years..."

“For fifty years, every night, I have been studying the methods of the path of saints.”

I have traversed hundreds of ruins across the sea, dispatched three thousand expeditions, studied tens of thousands of nights, and dreamt countless dreams—all for the sake of ascending to a higher state of being.

"However, you might have a question: why don't I, who yearns to become a god, seek out my former teacher, the one who once reigned supreme over the sea, the Ice Witch..."

Teacher… Fen's eyes widened, and she swallowed hard.

She never expected that at this crucial moment, the sea god would suddenly mention her teacher!

A hint of curiosity flashed in Chen Qi's eyes.

In fact, although the Ice Witch is a legend of the sea, her past is almost a mystery.

The only thing known is that she was once a saintess from the Kingdom of Winter, a saintess who worshipped the source of ice, the goddess of thorns.

He was interested! Poseidon crossed his nearly 1.8-meter-long leg and smiled slightly:

"Listen, Black Hunter, don't be tempted by the witch. The Ice Witch's true nature is that of a devil who will stop at nothing to become a god."

"The reason she wanted to save the sea was because of her ambition and the destiny she was given."

To become a demigod, one must fulfill the destiny of the world.

To attain permanent demigod powers, she must fulfill the mission of the Goddess of Thorns: to save the sea in its time of destruction.

Once it saves the sea, it will become like a god, immortal, fearless of death, and forever flowing in every corner of the ocean.

Saving the ocean is the task that will help the teacher ascend to demigodhood... Finn blinked; this was the first time she had ever heard of this.

However, ever since she met her teacher, he has indeed had an unimaginable dedication to saving this sea from destruction!

The Savior Witch – that was what my former teacher called her in the past.

Chen Qi touched his chin.

In fact, this has a certain degree of credibility.

To become an existence above the saints, one must possess extremely high renown and accomplish unimaginable feats.

He, like me, is someone who craves power; he's someone I can reconcile with, hmm, a good one! The Sea God looked at the Black Hunter and continued to laugh:

"Don't be fooled by the Ice Witch's appearance. Everything she does is to save the sea and complete her ascension."

In this process, friends, students, and everything else he loves are all objects he can sacrifice.

"Hunter, Flower Witch, following the Ice Witch will only lead to one thing: becoming mere consumables in her quest to ascend to demigodhood."

Consumables… Fen gritted her teeth, suppressing her anger.

The arrogant person in front of her was so brazenly slandering her teacher!

However, for the sake of the bigger picture, she still quietly moved forward, looking for an opportunity to contact Chen Qi and heal him.

The consumables for the promotion mission... Chen Qi gripped the blade again.

Seeing that Chen Qi did not answer, the Sea God raised his head even more arrogantly:

"Listen, hunter, following the Ice Witch will only lead you to become a drowned corpse in the sea."

And everything she possessed—the Rift Workshop, the coveted Tier 5 class card—I have it all!

"Even more so, a unique weapon forged from multiple rifts, wielded only by those at the fifth rank..."

After saying that, Poseidon snapped his fingers.

A faint, jet-black flame appeared at the tip of her slender fingertips!

The moment the flames appeared, the temperature of the entire sublimation land dropped by ten degrees, the light dimmed, and some eerie, incomprehensible screams were heard. The controlled sea beasts also retreated hastily out of instinctive fear.

The sea goddess raised her hand, offering up the jet-black flame in her hand:

"And as long as we cooperate, everything in the Sea God Pirate Crew will be yours."
