Douluo Continent: Peerless Angel Qian Renxue.

Chapter 866 The Twilight of the Sea God!

The God of Slaughter stumbled and rushed into the arms of the God of Asura, foaming at the mouth and looking as if he had seen a ghost.

Upon seeing this "traitor to the divine realm," even the God of Destruction frowned.

Fortunately, neither the evil nor the good god-king made any underhanded moves... After all, Qian Renxue, who was unhappy with each other, had already perished. They also cared about this god realm and were not particularly happy with the former Shura either.

The God of Slaughter's betrayal had a huge impact, but fortunately he immediately took a series of measures to ease the war situation and contacted Douluo Star, asking them to make sure to hold back more enemies at the ninth rank to true god level.

Those below the god level are essentially cannon fodder on this battlefield. However, both sides tacitly agree not to attack ninth-rank or titled Douluo, and have opened separate battlefields for them.

"What kind of panicked behavior is this?" The Asura God shoved the God of Slaughter aside and, while covering his mouth, wiped away the white foam from the corner of his mouth.

"Let him tell us what happened first." Indra, surrounded by rings of lightning, swung a weapon resembling a vajra and temporarily stopped.

"Also, why hasn't Poseidon returned?"

The God of Slaughter swallowed hard, forcing himself to calm down. But as soon as he heard Indra mention Poseidon, he immediately started trembling again.

Seeing this, the Asura God surrounded the God of Slaughter with divine power, forcibly helping him control his emotions, somewhat like the function of the Asura Badge.

"My Lord, my Lord! Lord Poseidon, the God of the Sea... he has betrayed us!" The God of Slaughter's pupils dilated, his face filled with disbelief.

"They've betrayed us??" The other gods in the divine alliance were all taken aback.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, is a peak first-level god no matter what, and is an indispensable fighting force even in the God Alliance.

Moreover, relying on his familiarity with the Douluo God Realm and his thorough understanding of the abilities of some first-level gods, he completely suppressed the elemental gods.

"This is impossible," muttered Rong Nianbing, the former God of Emotions.

The former God of Food and the Nine-Colored Goddess were also familiar with Poseidon.

"Yes, it's true! Gentlemen, although I, Hypnos, am... although I'm a bit cruel, I don't lie!"

Upon hearing this, the other deities nodded in agreement. Indeed, otherwise the God of Slaughter could have easily used false information to kill them early in the war.

"What happened?!" the Asura God demanded sharply, showing great concern for his old friend.

The God of Slaughter closed his eyes, and then an image floated into his mind—his memories.

The God of Slaughter projected his memories using his divine sense. In the projection, Poseidon, the god of the sea, constructed a divine power barrier at the site where the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd reappeared, and then watched helplessly as those gods with lower cultivation levels died one after another.

"Didn't he say that this opportunity should be equally distributed among the other gods?" the Asura God asked doubtfully. "That seems normal."

"This is not normal, my lord!" the God of Slaughter shouted. "He's enveloping this place with his divine power. Tell me, besides the several God-Kings, who else could break through his barrier as a peak Level One God? He's trying to monopolize this half-step super artifact! Because this thing is very similar to the trident he once possessed!"

A near-super artifact!

Upon hearing this term, everyone, regardless of who they were, revealed a greedy expression.

"You mean, Poseidon, the sea god, sent these priests, third-level gods, and even second-level gods to their deaths to neutralize the power of the near-divine artifact, and then took it for himself?" Indra frowned. "Was that near-divine artifact really that powerful? And what happened next?"

The God of Slaughter quickly continued, "Then I tried it myself, and I was severely injured by the power of that near-divine artifact... Then Poseidon made his move after almost all the second-level gods had perished!"

"He seized that near-divine artifact for himself, but it seems he was controlled in reverse, losing his mind and killing all his surviving companions!" The God of Slaughter's eyes were misty with tears, and his whole body trembled, as if he had been terrified and was mourning his fallen comrades. "His methods were too cruel; even I, the God of Slaughter, couldn't bear to watch!"

"Then how did you escape?" the Asura God asked.

"I... I escaped in the chaos... Your Excellencies, and my colleagues, you should have heard the huge explosion just now. I fled in panic during that explosion." The God of Slaughter rubbed his eyes and said hurriedly.

Just then, the other gods also noticed the appearance of the "half-step super artifact," which was indeed a halberd. Moreover, the aura emanating from that halberd... they could feel it even through the projection.

"This aura... why does it feel somewhat familiar?" The God of Destruction frowned.

He was also a little confused.

In reality, Destruction never saw the Abyss Lord.

Inside the spatial passage, the Abyss Saint King was killed by Qian Renxue's world projection and then annihilated, thus erasing his existence in this universe. Even the God of Destruction only remembered that there was an energy plane that wanted to devour Douluo Star, but it was ultimately dealt with by Qian Renxue.

Therefore, no one can tell who this thing came from; they only think it originated from somewhere else.

Just then, a loud bang suddenly came from the sky above the battlefield of the gods. All the gods looked up and saw a man covered in dark gold armor appear in the sky.

"Poseidon!"

"That's the Sea God!"

All the gods cried out in surprise.

However, this Poseidon seems a bit different. Although the original Poseidon was not a particularly righteous god, he at least possessed the power of the sea god, a relatively neutral force.

At this moment, Poseidon seemed to have fallen into evil, so much so that his originally golden armor had turned gray, and his entire body exuded an evil aura.

"As expected! That wasn't some half-step super artifact at all!" the God of Destruction whispered immediately. "That was clearly a super artifact imbued with evil power; Poseidon was being controlled by it!"

"A super artifact that can affect the divine consciousness of a peak first-level god?" The other gods also showed expressions of surprise.

"Since he's back, that means he's at least acquired this supreme artifact. So, we can have the God-King use his spiritual power to restore his sanity." The Asura God looked up at the sky. "Trading a bunch of insignificant low-level gods for a peak first-level god capable of wielding a supreme artifact is worthwhile!"

Indra nodded slightly. In their realm of gods, the differences in levels were even more pronounced, to the point that even the planets below carried this system. So, he saw it the same way.

However, Poseidon, standing in the sky, remained silent, and his body continued to emanate an aura of death, which was extremely eerie.

"Crack—"

With a cracking sound, Poseidon brandished his newly acquired divine artifact, and a flash of light appeared, unleashing boundless divine power.

"Twilight of the Sea God!"

His lifeless eyes twitched slightly at that moment, and then he spoke, unleashing his attack at the same time.
