Douluo: Yun Ming in the Spirit Hall Era

Chapter 397 Side Story: The Divine Realm Sequel

Poseidon Island, Temple of Poseidon

Poseidon led her seven Holy Pillar Douluos, standing tall and proud outside the hall. Each of them had flushed cheeks, upturned lips, and eyes brimming with excitement, their expressions like those of someone seeing an idol. It was only because the Sea God Temple didn't allow ordinary people to approach that the islanders, seeing their seemingly worthless appearance, would shatter their illusions of their strength.

The mermaid Douluo, with a human body and a fish tail, stared at the closed palace doors, her eyes glazed over, and asked the High Priest Poseidon.

"High Priest, is that person really inside?"

The other six Douluo were also listening intently for an answer. They were so excited to be suddenly told that the Lord had arrived and to line up to serve him that they hadn't even seen him yet!

Poseidon's mental cultivation was stronger than the others, so his expression was relatively normal as he whispered.

"real."

"Great!"

"Keep your voice down."

The young Sea Maiden Douluo cried out excitedly, but Poseidon reprimanded and admonished her.

The Sea Maiden Douluo also realized what was happening and quickly covered her mouth, as if afraid of startling the person inside. Poseidon, seeing this, didn't scold her much.

"Great Elder, what brings you here this time, sir?" Sea Dragon Douluo asked in a low voice, but there seemed to be some hope hidden in his eyes.

"Just wait patiently."

Poseidon didn't give a direct answer, but just replied casually, because she didn't know either.

While people were chatting outside, they were also exchanging ideas inside the Sea God Temple. The two people exchanging ideas were that great man and a certain idle god unknown to the people of Sea God Island.

"Senior, if you have time in the future, you might as well come to the human world more often. Your followers have believed in you for so many years, it would be too sad if they could not even see you once!" Yun Ming suggested to the person opposite him, listening to the 'loud noise' outside the door.

Poseidon shook his head.

"The gods won't allow it, and they might not sincerely want to see me, and what they want to see might not be the real me."

"But there are always genuine ones."

Yun Ming responded to Poseidon's sober remarks with these words.

Poseidon Road.

"But there's nothing we can do; the divine realm doesn't allow gods to descend to the mortal world!"

"What a pity."

Seeing that Poseidon didn't seem too keen on the topic, Yunming changed the subject.

"By the way, what's the current situation in the realm of gods?"

Poseidon said casually.

"It's almost all done, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get down."

"How was it handled?"

The fact that the God King has taken action against the first Enforcement God of the God Realm is a huge matter, and Yun Ming is quite curious about what will happen next.

Mentioning this incident, compared to Yun Ming's nonchalant expression, Poseidon felt lingering fear. After all, after dealing with the two Enforcement Gods that day, a second war in the divine realm almost broke out. Although the Enforcement Gods were gone, their fourteen chief gods were capable of forming two of the three great divine formations of the divine realm, and the number of second-level gods, third-level gods, and priests below them was still there, accounting for nearly half of the divine realm's fighting force!

"What should we do! Let's have a grand celebration!"

Yun Ming: "?"

Poseidon explained.

"That day, the God-Kings of Evil and Good issued a 'Decree of Self-Reproach,' clearing the names of the two God-Kings and admitting their crimes to the entire divine realm. They announced their abdication on the spot, and soon began the succession of divine positions."

Yunming stroked his chin and said.

"Taking the blame with abdication? That's decisive enough. But if it's just abdication, those gods won't be so easy to appease! And then what?"

Poseidon Road.

"After abdicating to stabilize the gods and eliminating the risk of another great war, we'll begin to use force to persuade the fourteen main gods to make peace."

"Without the help of the gods, the two god-kings are now unstoppable in the god realm. In addition, since they control the core of the god realm, the two god formations cannot withstand them. In the end, ten main gods were forced to pass on their positions, including the seven original sin gods who control the divine punishment formation."

"With the leader gone, this matter is naturally over."

"Ten main gods, all arranged in just a few days? Are successors that easy to find? I wonder if those ten will be too cooperative!"

Ten days in the divine realm is equivalent to ten years in the mortal realm. The fact that the main god's inheritance is progressing so quickly despite the provocations of the gods surprised Yun Ming.

Poseidon said irritably.

"Of course they weren't cooperating, but the successor was just too high-class!"

Yun Ming: "What do you mean?"

"Those who receive the inheritance are all the successors chosen by the two great god-kings."

"Alright!"

As a candidate for the God-King position, his qualities must indeed be quite high.

"So, it seems he decided to step down, and before doing so, he purged the remnants of the previous dynasty for his successor, leaving behind a large group of loyal followers! Although he wasn't very friendly to the two meritorious officials, he certainly cared about his successor," Yun Ming thought, unaware of Destructive style.

"So how shall we reward you, this minister who helped the emperor rise to power? By bestowing upon you the position of a divine enforcer?"

"If you want to advance further in your position, the only way is to take over. Besides, we can't leave the three positions of Enforcement Gods vacant forever!"

A flawless version after careful inspection!

Poseidon smiled.

"There was indeed a need for succession. I, emotions, and destruction were all promised the position of law enforcement deity. Now, both of them have completed the transition of their deities."

"I was the only one who refused the position of God of Life and exchanged it for a reward."

Yun Ming asked.

"What requirement can compare to a god-king level position?"

Poseidon: "Freedom."

The realm of gods is too lonely! Even if you offered him the throne of a god, he wouldn't be able to stay.

"Freedom is indeed much harder to come by!"

Yunming looked at Poseidon, who was calm and collected, and laughed as he talked about giving up. He sighed.

"So what reward did you exchange it for?"

Upon hearing Yun Ming's conversation, Poseidon looked at Yun Ming and said seriously.

"The Sea God's Position".

Upon hearing this, Yun Ming understood Poseidon's intention in summoning him for a face-to-face conversation: it was time to repay the debt he owed from years ago.

A silence fell over the room, and neither of them spoke. Yun Ming pondered the possibilities, while Poseidon awaited the outcome.

Before long, Yun Ming faced Poseidon.

"I understand what you mean, but I can't do it."

Even though Yun Ming's combat power was comparable to that of a god, he was essentially just a mortal, which is why Poseidon could control the timeline concerning Yun Ming. But for Poseidon, who is at the peak of the main god realm, no one can control his time now; he is too powerful.

Yun Ming couldn't do it. Unless he brought the creator god of the 'Realm of Nothingness' and the deceased dragon god here, and the three of them joined forces to control the past, present, and future respectively, it would be impossible. But let's not even talk about that lineup.

"Even severing one's own realm isn't allowed?" Poseidon asked hopefully.

Yun Ming shook his head.

"Cultivation can be severed, but what about the soul?"

"Once your soul is damaged, you will not be able to pass the final test, and you will only face death."

"Is there any other way?"

Poseidon had considered this outcome, but he was unwilling to accept it. If he relinquished his divine position, his power would decrease by at least 30%!

After thinking for a long time, Yun Ming slowly spoke.

"Following my path is definitely impossible, but if it's just about preserving one's divine position, it's not without a chance."
