With Poseidon drawing upon some of the divine power, Wu Qi had a chance to deal with him, and with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King also providing assistance, Hunter didn't have to rush to the rescue.

But things are different now. Poseidon forcibly draws divine power from his own body through the "channel" left on Poseidon's body. In doing so, not only does he violate the rules of the divine realm, but Wu Qi also loses the possibility of defeating him.

"To treat a junior so cruelly, is this the self-proclaimed righteous and benevolent sea god?"

Poseidon knew this was against the rules, but he had to do it. Without the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, his foundation would be shaken, and even at the risk of being held accountable by the God Realm Committee, he had to force Wu Qi to retreat.

Furthermore, he was not without backing in the God Realm; he was the strongest under the Asura God and the number one person below the Five Great God Kings.

Meanwhile, the Asura God's intended successor was Wu Qi, who was snatched away by the God of Destruction, and the identity of the other was unknown, but it seemed that he also lost the possibility of succession because of the God of Destruction.

Therefore, the two sides had long-standing conflicts, but they hadn't brought them to the forefront.

This time, Poseidon felt that he was venting his anger for the God of Asura, and the other party had no reason not to protect him this time.

"So what? This is my territory. Even if you are the successor of the God of Destruction, you are not allowed to cause trouble here!"

Hunter shook his head slightly, then looked at Wu Qi and the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, "You two should retreat from the Demon Whale Sea first, and I will meet up with you later!"

As he finished speaking, the Blazing Scepter Martial Soul appeared in his hand. However, with the aid of divine power, even an ordinary Martial Soul could unleash a divine skill!

Wu Qi did not linger and quickly did as instructed.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King did not want to be held accountable by Poseidon, so he immediately left with him.

At the same time, through those words, he could roughly figure out Wu Qi's situation.

There is a deity behind the opponent, and the opponent is also the successor to the divine position. It is likely that the opponent has the means to break through to the level of a divine beast.

According to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's vision, if Wu Qi could help him break through and go to the God Realm in the future, he would take the initiative to join the other party's camp and cause trouble for Poseidon every day.

……

Six hundred miles outside the Demon Whale Sea, the weather was fine and sunny, unaffected by the great battle.

Wu Qi released the soul-guided speedboat, which temporarily floated on the sea.

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King came to his side and hurriedly asked, "Boy, don't forget what you promised me."

Wu Qi shrugged and said, "The Sea God is right. You will never be able to break through to become a divine beast by relying solely on your own cultivation."

Before he could continue, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King flew into a rage and roared, "Are you toying with me? Even if you have a more powerful god behind you, I will make you pay!"

Wu Qi shook his head and sighed, "The Sea God is right. It's not that your talent is lacking, but rather that the rules limit you. Otherwise, why would so many hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts choose to transform into humans?"

“The cost of transformation is too high for you, but there is a better way.”

"What is it?" The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's expression softened somewhat.

Wu Qi said casually, "You can't become a god because of your identity as a soul beast. You can easily verify this with other ferocious beasts on the continent that are of similar strength to you."

"Only by shedding your identity as a soul beast can you have a chance to become a god. The essence of human transformation is the same."

"Offer your soul ring to me, and your soul will exist within the soul ring and soul bone. After I become a god, I will go to the God Realm to revive you. You will no longer be a soul beast, and under the nourishment of the God Realm's aura, you will soon become a god."

"Moreover, I can guarantee that I will send you back to the mainland in the future."

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King's chest heaved violently, his face contorted in pain. "As expected, you're just like Poseidon, you just want my soul rings and soul bones." Wu Qi didn't speak, but instead displayed his arm and torso soul bones.

“My arm soul bones come from the Ice and Fire Dragon King, and my torso soul bones come from the Azure Phoenix Divine Beast. They are both divine beasts that have survived from ancient times. Do you think they would willingly sacrifice their soul bones if I were just spouting nonsense?”

This cannot be faked.

Wu Qi's strength was insufficient to fight against the divine beasts, so these divine weapons could only have been obtained through sacrifice.

For a moment, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King fell silent. To gamble nearly a million years of cultivation on Wu Qi's future godhood to resurrect him was a huge price to pay.

After all, Wu Qi is currently only the heir to the divine position, and whether he can become a god is still unknown. If he perishes along the way, or if problems arise at the last moment, he will also perish.

But if he doesn't gamble and continues to be stuck at the last minute, being bullied at will by that old dog Poseidon, how could he be willing to accept that?

Wu Qi did not disturb his thoughts and sat on the speedboat with his eyes closed to rest.

After a long silence, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King asked, "How can I trust you to keep your promise to resurrect me after you become a god?"

Wu Qi opened his eyes and said calmly, "Oaths and such are all empty words. There is no enmity or grudge between us, only a cooperative relationship. Why should I break my promise to you?"

"Most importantly, I am a newcomer to the divine realm and do not have my own team. If I resurrect you, you will be my first ally, which will allow me to quickly gain a foothold in the divine realm."

"Do you think it's necessary for me to break my promise?"

Once he inherits the divine position, he will become one of the five great gods of the divine realm and an important member of the divine realm committee.

Breaking his promise will only make his situation in the divine realm more difficult.

After a moment of contemplation, a resolute look appeared in the eyes of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. "Very well, I am willing to take this gamble with you. I hope you can inherit the divine throne safely and resurrect me."

"Your soul bone slots are full. Whatever soul bone slot you need, I will try my best to fulfill your request."

Once the eighth test is completed, Wu Qi will be fully equipped with divine gear, so the requirements for his soul bone will not be significant.

After thinking for a moment, he decided, "I will try my best to modify the 100,000-year-old soul bones in my legs. In this way, the power of my divine equipment will be even stronger."

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King did not respond; his form transformed into his true form.

In an instant, a beam of brilliant golden light shot straight into the sky, dyeing the horizon a brilliant gold.

Nearly a million years of cultivation were ignited at this moment, creating a sacrificial domain that separated the entire area within a ten-mile radius. At this moment, unless the deity himself descended to the mortal realm, the sacrificial state could not be interrupted.

Feeling his own aura rise to the divine level, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He had accumulated enough strength to advance to the level of a divine beast, but unfortunately, the rules limited his potential.

He was already "dead" when this sacrifice began, but at this moment, his power has taken its final step.

"Boy, remember the promise you made to me."

The colossal body, hundreds of meters tall, transformed into specks of starlight, which became the purest soul power, converging towards Wu Qi's body.

In order to help Wu Qi break through to a higher level and complete the final assessment as soon as possible, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King used all of its power as a sacrifice.

A brilliant golden light continuously gathered, and at the location of Wu Qi's ninth spirit ring, a brilliant golden spirit ring was slowly forming. (End of this chapter)
