Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, Your Holiness, Please Behave Yourself

Chapter 354 The Light of the Sea God Destroys Evil!

The woman's pupils contracted sharply, and she instinctively took half a step back, her eyes filled with horror. She had never seen such a sacred power before. In this city of slaughter filled with darkness and evil, the appearance of this golden light was like a blazing sun in the darkness, so dazzling that she dared not look directly at it.

Immediately afterwards, Huo Yuhao raised his hand, a wisp of extremely refined golden light gathering at his fingertips, and gently pointed at the thin man who was still acting recklessly not far away.

A dazzling golden light shot out from his fingertips with lightning speed, landing precisely on the man almost in the blink of an eye. The next second, the man's body was completely enveloped in the brilliant golden light, and divine purifying power surged wildly within him like a tidal wave.

"Ouch—!!! What is that! It hurts!"

The man's expression changed drastically; the gloom on his face was instantly replaced by extreme terror and pain, and a piercing scream suddenly erupted from his lips.

He clearly felt an irresistible divine power starting from his skin, frantically eroding his body. His skin was in excruciating pain, as if it were being burned by fire or corroded by strong acid, and it was melting and festering rapidly at a visible speed.

He subconsciously activated the not-so-large amount of soul power accumulated in his body, trying to resist this strange and powerful force. However, the soul power tainted with killing and evil aura dissipated instantly like melting ice and snow as soon as it came into contact with the golden light, without even causing the slightest ripple, and it could not play any role in resisting at all.

Instead, this filthy soul power transformed into nourishment, constantly nurturing this supremely sacred aura.

He could only watch helplessly as pieces of his skin peeled off, revealing the bright red flesh beneath, and the melting showed no signs of stopping, quickly spreading from the skin to the flesh, bones, and tendons.

He struggled and writhed frantically in the golden light, his body twisting and deforming in a horrific state. Blood mingled with murky fluids, staining the crimson stone pavement beneath him. But all his efforts were in vain; he could not prevent his body from being purified and melted away.

The crowd that had gathered around at the sound were all stunned and frozen in place, their bodies shivering and their hair standing on end.

They were all ruthless killers who had long been accustomed to all kinds of gruesome deaths. Severed limbs and dismembered bodies were commonplace for them. But the bizarre scene of a living person melting away before their eyes, even the bones being completely purified, leaving only a pile of black ashes drifting in the wind, was something they had never seen before in their lives.

What terrified them even more was the divine pressure emanating from the golden light, which seemed to pierce through their souls, exposing all the sins and evil thoughts hidden within them to the sunlight. The feeling of being judged and stared at sent a chill down their spines, and their legs trembled involuntarily.

"W-What's going on?! What kind of power is that?!"

"What...what did he do to that person?!"

"How scary! Run!"

Panic spread rapidly through the crowd like a plague. The people could no longer maintain their previous indifference and ferocity; their faces turned ashen, their eyes filled with extreme fear. They cried out in terror, their voices trembling uncontrollably. They screamed instinctively, as if only in this way could they slightly vent the overwhelming fear within them.

"It was that boy! He did it!"

A trembling, almost incoherent voice suddenly erupted from the crowd. A burly man with a full beard raised his trembling arm, his withered fingers pointing intently at Huo Yuhao, who was surrounded by golden light not far away. His voice was filled with despair and fear.

All eyes instantly turned to Huo Yuhao; the truth was obvious. That terrifying scene was all the work of this seemingly harmless, young boy! And that eerie golden light was also released by him!

"A demon! He's a demon!"

Someone suddenly screamed hysterically, instantly igniting panic in everyone's hearts. The way they looked at Huo Yuhao was like looking at a deadly demon from the deepest hell, filled with extreme fear and deep-seated hatred.

Some wanted to roar and rush forward to tear this terrifying boy to pieces, but the fear in their bones made their legs feel as heavy as lead, unable to move even half a step. They could only stand frozen in place, trembling.

Before they could continue their clamor, Huo Yuhao's cold eyes slowly swept over everyone present.

His gaze was devoid of any warmth, like a deep, icy pool, profound and cold, carrying the supreme majesty and judgmental power of a sea god. Anyone whose gaze swept over them and met his eyes felt as if their heart was being held firmly by an invisible hand, an urge to suffocate instantly engulfing their entire body, their chest feeling so tight it felt like it was about to explode. Forget about shouting; even breathing became extremely difficult, leaving them gasping for air with their mouths open.

The once bustling and chaotic street, filled with all sorts of sounds, became deathly silent. You could hear a pin drop. Only the heavy, rapid breathing of the crowd and the thick, pungent smell of blood and a faint acrid odor filled the air. Everyone kept their heads down, not daring to make the slightest move, much less meet Huo Yuhao's gaze, for fear of becoming the next target to be purified by the golden light.

However, even if they didn't make a move, Huo Yuhao had no intention of letting them go. Trash should be prepared to stay in hell!

"The Light of Poseidon!"

Huo Yuhao roared, his voice loud and majestic, like a god descending to earth, echoing throughout the inner city streets and making the eardrums of everyone around him buzz.

As he finished speaking, the golden light surrounding him suddenly burst forth, dazzling like the sun shining brightly. Thin, refined strands of golden light, like fine rain, continuously seeped into the bodies of everyone on the street.

The Light of the Sea God is the purest power of light in the world, containing the Sea God's power of judgment and purification, ensuring that good and evil are rewarded and that right and wrong are immediately distinguished.

Huo Yuhao didn't need to personally distinguish who was unforgivable and who was innocent; the Light of the Sea God would automatically make a judgment based on the sinful aura and evil thoughts within each person.

Those villains who bear heinous sins, have lost their humanity, and whose hands are stained with the blood of innocents will be mercilessly burned by the light of the sea god and turned to ashes bit by bit; only those who have good intentions and have never done evil can be spared from the judgment of the light of the sea god.

Where the golden light fell, piercing screams rose and fell, echoing throughout the entire street. Those murderers who usually committed countless evils and killed without hesitation were now like lambs to the slaughter before the light of the sea god, utterly powerless to resist. Their bodies were enveloped in the golden light, their skin, flesh, and bones melting and dissipating little by little, turning into piles of black ash in the blink of an eye, drifting away with the wind, and completely disappearing into this purgatory.

Some people frantically fled towards the end of the street to escape the golden light, but the golden light, like a leech, relentlessly pursued them. No matter where they fled, they could not escape their fate of being purified. Others wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, weeping and confessing their sins, but the light of the sea god was merciless. Once the judgment began, there was no room for maneuver, and in the end, they could not escape the fate of turning into ashes.

The scene of carnage and chaos that had once littered the streets gradually disappeared, leaving only patches of bloodstains and scattered black ash, silently testifying to the grand purification that had just taken place.

In just a few breaths, as the golden light around Huo Yuhao slowly receded and re-condensed into the trident pattern of the Sea God between his brows, there was not a single living person left on the entire wide inner city street, except for the woman standing beside him who was already terrified out of her wits.

The dust covering the ground and the lingering sacred aura in the air spoke volumes—none of those who had gathered here were innocent; each bore unforgivable sins.

The woman stood there blankly, her whole body trembling violently. Her face was ashen, devoid of any color, and her eyes were filled with horror and confusion. She seemed to have lost her soul.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found her throat so dry she couldn't utter a sound. The impact of what she had just witnessed was too great, too shocking, leaving her unable to recover for a long time.

She had never imagined that someone who appeared to be a young boy could possess such terrifying and divine power. That golden light was practically the nemesis of all the villains in the City of Slaughter. At this moment, she finally understood how ridiculous her previous worries had been. This boy before her didn't need her protection at all. He himself was an unparalleled god of death, inspiring awe and fear!

Huo Yuhao slowly withdrew his gaze, and the divine pressure around him gradually subsided, returning him to his previous aloof demeanor, as if the earth-shattering purification just now was nothing more than a trivial matter.

He gently brushed his sleeves, as if brushing away dust, then turned to look at the woman beside him who was still lost in thought. His tone remained calm, yet carried an unquestionable air of command.

"Don't just stand there, take me to the hellish killing field."
