Chapter 680: The Power of Faith
The Sea Giant leader raised the colossal pillar in its hands horizontally to block Tang San’s incoming claws. At the same time, a vortex suddenly appeared behind the Sea Dragon leader. Both the spear it had thrust and its body disappeared into that dark blue vortex, only to reappear the next moment behind Tang San. The spear shot straight toward Tang San's shoulder.
Screeeeech!
Tang San’s crystalline golden claws slashed against the pillar, leaving deep gouges in its surface.
As for the Sea Dragon leader’s attack from behind, Tang San acted as if he didn’t see it, allowing the spear to strike his shoulder.
A crisp sound echoed, but the full-force strike of a Sea King only caused Tang San to sway slightly in the air, while the powerful rebound sent the spear flying back.
The Sea Dragon leader stared in shock as Tang San turned around to face it. For a moment, fear crept into its heart. It had felt as though it had stabbed a mountain—a strike powered by its full strength couldn’t penetrate at all. What kind of armor was this?
In that instant, crystalline blue-golden vines shot out from Tang San’s body, weaving into a large net in the air, which descended upon the Sea Dragon leader.
The Sea Dragon leader was about to dodge when it suddenly saw a burst of purple light from Tang San’s eyes. Its sea of consciousness quivered violently, and in that moment of hesitation, the vines had already wrapped around it.
The vines were incredibly tough. Once the Sea Dragon leader regained its senses and tried to struggle, it found himself unable to break free. In the next moment, Tang San used the vines to pull himself close, his sharp claws slashing down at the leader's head.
"ROAR!!!"
In this moment of crisis, the Sea Dragon leader let out a short roar. The two dragon horns on its head flared with bright light, shooting out two beams of blue lightning.
Sensing the intensity of the lightning, Tang San didn’t take it head-on. The attack was a fusion of the Sea Dragon's divine consciousness and bloodline power, likely its innate ability. With a flicker of silver light, Tang San shifted a meter to the side, avoiding the strike.
Seizing the opportunity, the Sea Dragon leader's body swelled rapidly as it attempted to revert to its true form, forcibly breaking the vines constricting it.
They simply couldn’t fathom how someone who hadn’t undergone a tribulation could be so powerful. Whether it was attack, defense, speed, or timing, there were virtually no flaws.
The Sea Walrus clan elder was also deeply alarmed. Though it prided itself on its thick skin, there was no way it would dare use its body to withstand the sharpness of Tang San's claws.
If Tang San hadn't shown mercy, the Sea Giant leader's massive head would likely have been separated from its body a few moments ago.
Seeing that the two leaders remained silent, Tang San retracted his claws, and the golden armor covering him disappeared; with that, his physique returned to its normal size. The golden trident mark reappeared on his forehead, but this time, it didn’t release any pressure.
Instead, a pale golden aura rapidly spread out, and immediately, countless strands of faith energy within the sea were drawn to him, surging toward his location. This energy not only flowed into Tang San, replenishing the energy he had expended in battle but also entered the bodies of the Sea Giant and Sea Dragon leaders.
Both the Sea Dragon leader and the Sea Giant leader had sustained some injuries, one from being struck by his companion’s pillar, and the other from being stomped full-force by Tang San. However, as the faith energy from the sea nourished them, they could clearly feel their bloodline auras becoming more vigorous. Their injuries healed rapidly and soon disappeared entirely. Even their energy flow became smoother, the sensation so pleasant that they almost let out a sigh of relief.
The other sea beasts nearby, including the clansmen of the two leaders, also felt the nourishing effect of the faith energy on their bodies. The way they looked at Tang San slowly began to change.
Tang San's voice echoed in the minds of every sea clan member present. "Circulate your bloodline power and guide it with your spiritual power; feel the changes within yourselves."
Almost instinctively, they followed Tang San's instructions, actively guiding their bloodlines.
Indeed, this power of faith was quite extraordinary. As it nourished them, each sea beast could feel subtle yet remarkable changes occurring in their bloodlines. While the changes weren't drastic, they were on a qualitative level, something they had never experienced in their entire lives.
In the midst of this miraculous change, they felt as if their bloodlines were being purified, and even evolving in some way. Those that were not yet gods felt this sensation even more acutely than their more powerful leaders.
Tang San hovered above the sea, a faint golden aura enveloping him. The golden trident mark on his forehead shone brilliantly, making him appear like a true deity.
Facing powerful Demon Kings with first-tier bloodlines, Tang San would likely be fine in a one-on-one battle on land, but a two-on-one would be much more challenging. Gods had a much higher recovery rate, and their divine consciousness gave them a significant advantage.
But it was different in the sea. The sea was Tang San’s domain, and here, his power was much greater, and his recovery rate was in no way inferior to that of any tenth-order powerhouse.
