Chapter 301 Poseidon Wants to Try

Tick ​​tock.

Water droplets fell from the ceiling and dripped into puddles on the ground, further exacerbating the already severe dampness in the surrounding area.

This is the prison of the Sanctuary. Normally, the Saints of the Sanctuary refer to this place as the Water Prison. Only Saints who have committed serious crimes are imprisoned here.

At that moment, Uniti, the son of the lord of Brugled, was squatting in a relatively dry spot inside the water dungeon.

After all, Poseidon's soul still resides within him.

Because of the Titans' appearance, Unity, who originally planned to deceive Hades and gain his trust, was also brought back.

"What are you thinking about, kid?"

Upon hearing the deep voice, Uniti looked down at the puddle and immediately saw a man with naturally long, seaweed-like hair and an obscured face reflected on the water.

That is the main god currently residing in Unity's body—Poseidon, the sea god.

When Unity saw Poseidon, he didn't speak, but simply closed his eyes, as if the sea god before him was nothing more than air.

At this moment, Poseidon mocked.

"You've come to the Holy Land, but you haven't taken the initiative to find your sister. You've really been running away, haven't you?"

Unity looked up and glanced at Poseidon.

Are you bored?

"I really can't refute that question."

Poseidon sighed.

He had been sealed in Athena's Jar since the age of mythology, and it took countless years before the seal was broken.

After experiencing so many boring times, it's no wonder I'm bored.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to induce Unity to break his own seal and resurrect her sister.

What exactly do you want to tell me?

Unity said calmly.

He was well aware that his only role now was as a vessel for Poseidon, serving as a tool of the Sanctuary to contribute to Hades in crucial moments.

His chances of surviving this process are slim.

He knew it all too well, but this was his current state: he had killed his father, nearly released Poseidon, and ruined Brugled's mission... Perhaps only death was the only escape.

"Give me your body?"

Poseidon, resting his chin on his hand, asked with a smile from the puddle.

Seeing this, Unity narrowed his eyes and said with a suspicious and wary expression.

"What do you want my body for? Are you preparing to be resurrected?"

Poseidon then said with a smile.

"Of course, it's just to see what the difference is between humans and gods, and why gods can't break through the eighth sense, while Saint Seiya always produces strong individuals with the eighth sense?"

This has been true from the time of mythology to the present day.

In the golden age of the past, all life forms were born with a seventh sense, and the only difference between gods and golden humans was that the gods' divine cosmos and the will of the gods were more powerful.

However, even under those circumstances, there were quite a few individuals who cultivated their microcosm to the ninth sense, becoming as powerful as the main gods.

The Titans expended considerable effort to eliminate those golden humans.

Now Poseidon may understand why the Titans chose to eliminate the Golden Humans: they were afraid—afraid that humans would easily reach the heights they themselves could not.

After all, in that era, it wasn't difficult for humans to become gods.

However, Unityi, unaware of these matters, simply assumed that Poseidon harbored ill intentions. Considering his reputation in mythology, Unityi immediately became wary.

"You rascal, you don't actually have feelings for Serafina, do you?"

Poseidon was taken aback, then his expression turned amused.

In his view, it was perfectly normal for a naive young girl like Serafina to fall in love.

However, this person could be Su Nian, or it could be that Aquarius, but it could never be Poseidon.

It's because he's using her brother's body now.

Human genes instinctively exclude members of the opposite sex with whom we spent too much time in childhood from the reproductive scope.

Therefore, Poseidon knew very well that Seraphine under normal circumstances would not be in the situation that Unity imagined, but that did not mean he could not tease her.

"Hmm, maybe things are as you think?"

Hearing the ambiguous words, Uniti felt even more uneasy.

"If you dare say something like that to her, I'll risk my life to drag you to hell."

At that moment, a voice that was very familiar to Unity rang out.

"Unity, who do you intend to take to hell?"

Upon hearing this voice, Unity froze, like a cat seeing a mouse.

He raised his head and looked outside the prison, where the soft, flowing hair immediately came into view.

"Seraphina..."

Uniti called out her sister's name.

At this moment, Serafina also sensed Poseidon's divine power and immediately understood.

"Have you been tricked by Poseidon again, Unity?"

"I!"

Uniti blushed. What kind of teasing is this? My dear sister, can't you give me some face?

Before Unity could retort, Serafina put her hands on her hips and sighed.

“Unity, His Majesty Poseidon has been in prison for too long, and his personality has become somewhat abnormal. Please be understanding.”

"I……"

Unity looked at Serafina with tears in her eyes, "So, which side are you on?"
Just then, within the puddle, Poseidon, who had been silent since Serafina appeared, suddenly spoke.

"As expected, I couldn't hide it from you after all."

Upon hearing this, Unity looked up behind Serafina and realized that a man and a woman had appeared behind his sister.

He recognized the man; he was the treacherous person who had stood with Athena before, stuffing Poseidon's soul into his body, preparing to betray Hades.

He didn't know much about the woman, only that she wasn't Athena.

However, Yuni Tissou instinctively held his breath, not daring to disturb the communication between the gods, knowing that something quite significant was about to happen.

At that moment, Persephone walked past Serafina, looked down at the puddle on the ground, and smiled.

"Poseidon, seeing you like this is truly a delightful sight."

"Humph."

Poseidon snorted coldly, and then said.

"What brings you here? You didn't come just to see me, did you?"

Upon hearing this, Persephone gave Poseidon a deep look before speaking.

"In that case, let's get straight to the point."

"Poseidon, you want to break through the Ninth Sense and then master the ultimate power, right?"

The Ninth Sense, information extracted by Su Nian from Hyperion's memories, is a prerequisite, or rather, the most basic threshold, for mastering the will of the gods. The essence of the Ninth Sense is the reversal of ultimate power, an incompletely degraded product of ultimate power.

Zeus was once able to control all senses, so Poseidon was naturally confident in this ability, but he had never considered doing so before.

Upon hearing Persephone's direct words, Poseidon paused for a moment, then burst out laughing.

"Who wouldn't want that? But I don't have the means to obtain ultimate power."

"No, you do!!"

Persephone bluntly exposed Poseidon's lie.

"Okeanos wasn't imprisoned in the abyss, but rather sealed away by you alone, wasn't he?"

Oceanus, the god of the ocean.

The eldest son of the Titans, the god of the ocean, and the origin of all waters.

After his defeat, he was imprisoned in the abyss, and is believed to have been killed by Zeus before he left this universe.

But in fact, there was no ocean god being suppressed in the abyss. Hades, the god of the underworld, was in charge of suppressing the Titans. How could she not know that?

Poseidon's heart is known to all.

He actually wanted to devour the ocean god entirely and become a Titan himself.

This is also why Poseidon doesn't care about his current power.

Now that he has learned the secrets of the ultimate power, Poseidon naturally wants to master that ultimate power as well.

Knowing this, Persephone took Su Nian to Poseidon.

"Persephone, so what? Or are you and Athena's lover planning to help me?"

Hearing Persephone's direct words, Poseidon paused, then burst out laughing.

"why not?"

Persephone's gaze sharpened, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

“Poseidon, you should know that those messages alone cannot open the path to the Creator God for us.”

In fact, it wouldn't be safe for him to be the only one to become Su Nian's test subject.

Moreover, Persephone did not believe she could awaken the Eighth Sense. As Su Nian's test subject, she was mainly used to let Su Nian try another path to master the ultimate power.

Poseidon, on the other hand, wanted to try to master the ultimate power through the divine will of the Ninth Sense.

In a sense, his goals were not contradictory to those of Persephone.

"Great offer."

Poseidon chuckled, not denying his pursuit of the realm of a creator god.

"But why would I need your help?"

At this point, Poseidon said something meaningful.

"Zeus didn't take the complete set of divine armor with him."

"Really?"

Su Nian glanced at the puddle on the ground with some surprise.

"But you should also know how difficult this road is, right?"

Otherwise, Zeus would have had no reason to take away the divine garments of the twelve gods.

"You boy."

Poseidon sighed. He admitted that Su Nian had persuaded him. After all, even Zeus had failed to uncover the Titans' secrets, yet Su Nian had obtained them so easily and even shared them willingly.

In this respect alone, Su Nian's character far surpasses Zeus's.

"Then I'll be honest, I still have the Sea God's Armor's weapon."

"That trident?"

Su Nian glanced at Poseidon with some surprise. She hadn't expected that someone with such thick eyebrows and big eyes would secretly resort to such petty tricks.

“That’s right. It’s not just me, but also Hades, Athena and other gods. They only lost the main body of their divine armor; their weapons are still there.”

"No one could be without vigilance towards Zeus at that time."

This ruthless man swallowed Metis whole, who had accompanied him from his rise to the throne of the god-king.

Then one day he suddenly decides to hold a banquet on Olympus and asks everyone to take off their divine clothes. How many people would believe that Zeus is really preparing a banquet?
How many people would believe that we don't need to wear armor when we receive our pay tomorrow?

They simply had to agree because of Zeus's power.

Zeus was aware of these things and tacitly approved some of the underhanded actions; otherwise, no one would have attended the so-called banquet.

Who could have imagined that Zeus would simply steal the divine robes and run away?

This is the only thing Zeus did that could be considered conscientious.

"It seems the advantage is on my side."

Upon hearing this good news, Su Nian smiled happily, knowing that he was just worried about where to get the ultimate power.

Chu Zhen's ultimate power comes from Gaia, and is very likely to be limited by Gaia.

It's estimated that only the original ultimate power has the fewest limitations.

At this moment, Poseidon suddenly spoke, looking at Su Nian.

"However, there's no need for cooperation. I will try to break through my ninth sense, and then become a supreme god to master ultimate power."

"If I really succeed, I will share my insights with you."

As for failure? The eighth sense transcends the boundary between life and death. What can you do if you fail to break through? You just die. Even gods die completely.

The Ninth Sense is even more ruthless, requiring the severing of one's own good and evil thoughts, embracing nothingness. The consequences of failure are self-evident; it is highly likely that even existence itself will not remain.

Su Nian nodded, understanding Poseidon's implied meaning.

"But is it worth it?"

"What's not worth it?"

Poseidon grinned.

"If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening. I just wanted to give it a try. Why can Zeus do it, but I, as his older brother, can't?"

It's simply about building upon the current foundation and pushing the boundaries of two more senses.

At this point, Poseidon paused and looked at Serafina.

"By the way, I've placed Oceanus's true form inside the Sea General's scales. As long as you take the Sea Emperor's Trident and unleash your divine power to shatter the Sea General's scales, what's left is the true form."

"As for Oceanus, I suppressed him in the eye of the Pacific Ocean and stripped him of his divine will through ocean currents. If nothing unexpected happens, he should now have accumulated enough divine will to become a chief god."

"...As expected of an old man, no wonder he said that as long as you have an ordinary human body, you can return to your peak."

Su Nian's lips twitched slightly. If he hadn't been given the path to becoming a creator god, he really wouldn't have expected Poseidon to have such a background.

"It's just a bit of accumulated experience."

Poseidon smiled and then said nothing more.

After all, if he doesn't speak up now, he won't have anything left to use after he fails.

A dying man's words are often good. He was preparing to try to master his eighth and ninth senses, so naturally he had to give away these useless things.

As it happened, he found Su Nian and Athena quite agreeable, so he readily gave her the secret of ultimate power.
