Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 174 The Remnants of the Sea God

"What you say is possible, because I'm not sure if it's true either," Ye Xishui said. "Because I don't dare to completely unleash my divine sense to delve deep into this place."

"Who cares about all those possibilities? Just dig it open, won't you?" Hyotei said nonchalantly.

According to Qian Renxue, the Sea God and the Asura God are two gods in one entity, and are also her enemies. And if the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor want to ascend to the God Realm, they might have to kill the Ice and Water God beside the Sea God, which would directly unite them on a stronger front.

"Why not just dig it open and see? That's not a bad idea," Qian Renxue said after thinking for a moment.

"What if the old dog in the sky thinks this is blasphemy?" Shen Yuanyi said with some concern.

"How can this be called blasphemy? We discovered something like a mineral vein beneath Cold Pine Cliff, so we wanted to dig it up and take a look." Ice Emperor had already come up with a reason: "That insect dug and dug under the ice in the far north and found so much ice marrow."

"Yuan Yi's concerns are valid, and this is another reason I can use to support my point. I arrived here earlier than you, and without releasing my divine sense, I detected the aura of more than one Title Douluo here," Ye Xishui said.

"The aura of a Title Douluo?" Qian Renxue frowned. "Can you sense where they're coming from?"

"Do you remember when we first met, I told you that I was delayed on the way here?" Ye Xishui's expression was solemn. "At that time, I actually felt that I was detected by a mysterious Title Douluo. I originally thought it would be that guy from the Body Sect, but later, I brought that wisp of aura back for Xiaoyao to sense, and he said it was not Poison Undying."

Long Xiaoyao is from the Heavenly Soul Empire, and he previously guarded the northern part of the Sun Moon Empire, so he had contact with Du Busi. Ye Xishui, on the other hand, was more familiar with the previous generation's Du Busi, the sect leader of the Body Sect.

Although the two are brothers, the Body Sect possesses special secret techniques, so their true auras will still differ.

Qian Renxue's eyes turned cold.

If all of this is true, then a problem arises.

What they did at Cold Pine Cliff may have been exposed to some unknown force, but they do not belong to any of the major powers on the mainland.

What force is hiding even deeper than the Holy Spirit Cult? This made Ye Xishui cautious.

"I think I understand." Qian Renxue closed her eyes and thought for a moment.

Their conversation, which began when they mentioned the possibility of Poseidon Island, tacitly turned into a spiritual exchange.

"Just like every place where a deity inherits their legacy has a priest, the aura you sensed is very likely from the descendants of those titled Douluo who guarded the original Seagod Island," Qian Renxue transmitted her thoughts. "However, they probably won't reach the level of a demigod. At most, they should be around ninety-eight to ninety-nine, similar to what you were at before."

Ye Xishui's true strength at this moment should be barely touching the threshold of demigod, surpassing that of an ordinary Limit Douluo. This is not an exaggeration for her. Originally, she had already reached the pinnacle of strength with the Death God Soul Tool, and now she has begun cultivating her second martial soul, obtained a 100,000-year-level external soul bone, and the Destruction Inheritance.

"You haven't reached the level of a demigod? Do you still remember the strongest among them back then?" Ye Xishui asked.

"The strongest person back then was a level 99 Peerless Douluo. With the assistance of the Sea God Temple, she should have been able to unleash god-level attacks. However, she was the High Priestess of the Sea God, and she sacrificed herself when Tang San ascended to godhood. There were no other island-guarding Douluos of that level." Qian Renxue pondered for a moment.

"But the situation might be a little different now. After Poseidon Island disappeared, the ocean and the Temple of Poseidon, which served as their source of auxiliary power, also disappeared. Therefore, it is impossible for demigod-level beings to appear on the continent again," Qian Renxue added.

Qian Renxue didn't know where these people were hiding, but just like the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, who had gone into seclusion, the world didn't know where they were in this era.

"I suspect this place is their last refuge!" Qian Renxue showed no respect for these people, who were originally the Angel Gods and enemies of the Spirit Hall.

"I understand. Let's go somewhere farther away first." After Ye Xishui finished speaking, she conjured a gust of wind and, together with Bingdi, carried away the three girls whose cultivation levels were not yet high. After they left, in a clear blue valley to the east of Hansong Cliff, a middle-aged man stomped his foot forcefully.

Instantly, seven people appeared around him.

"Lord Sea God Douluo!" The seven people knelt down on one knee.

"Countless years have passed, and I never imagined that Poseidon Island would ultimately disappear!" The middle-aged man's eyes revealed a deep, azure blue, like the starry sky turned upside down.

Unlike Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo is a descendant of the first Sea God Poseidon, left behind on the continent.

When Tang San underwent the Nine Trials of the Sea God, he was tested with the help of most of his family members.

Later, Poseidon departed, instructing them to be good eyes and ears and assistants to the Douluo plane, and to help the new sea god manage the sea as much as possible.

In the end, no one expected that Poseidon's island, which he had placed so much hope in, would fall to the laws of nature due to the movement of two continental plates.

The Sea God Douluo's surname is Chen, and his given name is Haoming. The seven people beside him are the seven Title Douluos who inherited the original Sea God Pillar: Seahorse, Sea Dragon, Sea Maiden, Sea Ghost, Sea Star, Sea Spear, and Sea Illusion Douluo.

Their cultivation levels were relatively ordinary, generally between level 92 and 95.

"Life is unpredictable, my lord, you need not worry. Under the guidance of the Sea God, we only need to do our duty!" Sea Dragon Douluo said in a deep voice.

"It's our duty..." Sea God Douluo closed his eyes. "We've ventured deep into the continent to search for the whereabouts of another deep-sea demon whale from the ocean, but we've found nothing. Can this be considered fulfilling our duty?"

"There will always be a result. My lord, is there something important that you summoned us here?" The Sea Maiden Douluo asked with a charming expression.

Chen Haoming snapped out of his reverie: "Just now, a group of people arrived at Cold Pine Cliff. Among them was a level 99 Limit Douluo, whose aura I sensed less than a year ago. However, the auras were slightly different on those two occasions. I suspect this person may have obtained... the inheritance of a god!"

"Can you discern this person's identity?" Sea Dragon Douluo was startled. "The appearance of a divine inheritance is no small matter. Perhaps even the Sea God is aware of this."

Chen Haoming shook his head: "I just tried to contact the Sea God, but I failed. It seems there's some unseen force preventing me from communicating with the divine realm. Since the Sea God can't descend to the mortal realm in person, we might need to investigate this person ourselves."

"His power is immense. Even back then, with his deliberate concealment, I couldn't completely uncover his identity! This time, it goes without saying. I didn't even know what was happening in the Misty Forest under his cover," Chen Haoming said in a deep voice. "But no matter what, those who can obtain inheritances in the world today come from only two forces."

"Seahorse and Sea Spear, you go to Shrek Academy; Sea Dragon and Sea Illusion, you go to the Body Sect of Heavenly Soul; Sea Maiden and Sea Star, you go to Mingdu of the Sun Moon Empire." Chen Haoming gave the orders. "Remember, do not reveal your whereabouts. You are going to investigate, not to visit."

Thank you all for reading and your support!

The story is about to reach its first climax, a clash of forces across the entire continent. We hope you will continue to support and follow along!

Chen Xinjie, the Sea God Douluo, is a character who appears in Douluo Continent III. He is of Poseidon's bloodline, a family that wasn't explicitly mentioned in Douluo Continent I. However, it's said that someone from his family helped with the assessment, which seems to suggest it's Poseidon, a descendant of Poseidon, just as Qian Daoliu is a descendant of the first generation of angels. But if that's the case, when did Poseidon have offspring that eventually passed down to Chen Xinjie… There are many inconsistencies here, so I won't delve into them. He could also be one of the Seven Sacred Pillars, but his martial soul and abilities don't match. Therefore, the most likely explanation is that poor Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu were manipulated by the woman they both longed for.

It was explicitly stated in Douluo Continent III that their family had attempted to intervene in the merging of the two continents during Douluo Continent II, but was prevented from doing so.
