Chapter 55 The Guardian of the Ocean, a Peerless Beauty!
The review of Qian Renxue had just ended, and everyone was still in a daze.
Another row of characters appeared on the sky.
[TOP 5—Poseidon Douluo, Poseidon!]
As the name appeared, the azure background suddenly became sacred.
The scene shifts, no longer to the hustle and bustle of the land, nor the deathly silence of the starry sky, but to a mysterious island isolated overseas.
On the island, seven enormous sacred pillars soar into the sky, and in the center of the seven pillars, a magnificent temple of the sea god stands tall.
A beautiful figure appeared in everyone's sight without warning, yet as if it were perfectly natural.
That was a view from behind.
Just a glimpse of his back was enough to make countless people hold their breath.
She slowly turned around, as if she had stepped out of an ancient painting.
She was extremely tall, measuring about 1.8 meters, which is very rare among women, but it did not seem out of place at all. Instead, it gave her an indescribable sense of majesty.
Unlike ordinary sea spirit masters who wear blue clothes, she was completely shrouded in a bright red robe.
The red was so vibrant and vivid, like coral fire burning in the deep sea, or the most magnificent sunset glow.
Her wide robe, embroidered with golden wave patterns, swayed gently in the sea breeze, making her seem like a sacred flame dancing on the sea.
Her long, sea-blue hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall.
Her hair was smooth and glossy, shimmering in the sunlight. It spread out and almost reached the ground. As she turned, her hair drew a graceful arc in the air, like waves gently lapping at the beach.
When her face became fully clear, the whole world seemed to light up for a moment.
It was a face of exquisite beauty. Time seemed to have been exceptionally kind to her, leaving no trace on her face; she looked to be no more than thirty years old.
But this is not the naivety of a young girl, but a mature charm that has reached its peak.
Her beauty lies not only in the exquisite features of her face, but more so in the temperament that emanates from within.
Noble, as if she were the sole ruler of this endless ocean.
Elegant, with every gesture exuding composure.
It is warm and smooth, like a piece of jade that has been washed by seawater for millions of years, making people want to get close to it, yet not daring to have the slightest thought of desecration.
In her jade-like right hand, she held a scepter that was three meters long.
The scepter is entirely a brilliant gold color, gleaming in the sunlight.
The staff is engraved with intricate and ancient magic patterns, each line seemingly containing the secrets of the sea.
At the head of the staff is a diamond-shaped protrusion resembling a spear, sharp and sacred.
Five inches below the tip of the spear was a large, rhomboid-shaped gold gem.
Within that gemstone, a golden ocean seemed to be sealed, its shimmering light emanating a breathtakingly sacred aura.
The Spirit Hall, the Papal Palace.
Bibi Dong stared intently at the woman in the sky.
As the Pope of the Spirit Hall and the most powerful woman on the Douluo Continent, Bibi Dong has always had absolute confidence in her appearance and temperament.
However, at this moment, looking at Poseidon, her fingers involuntarily tightened around the scepter in her hand.
On the sky, a line of comments slowly appeared, like an invisible slap, gently yet clearly striking Bibi Dong's heart:
If judged solely on appearance, she is undoubtedly a rare beauty.
But her temperament is unmatched by anyone.
Even Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, pales in comparison to her in terms of presence.
"Inferior to her?"
A flash of anger crossed Bibi Dong's eyes, but more than that, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
She could sense that the woman in the red robe possessed a pure, clear, and boundless aura, one with the sea.
As for herself—Bibi Dong looked down at herself, her heart filled with hatred, twisted emotions, and darkness.
Although the aura of the Rakshasa god was powerful, it was sinister and evil.
Compared to Poseidon's seemingly all-encompassing "all-embracing" nature, I do lack composure and possess more aggression.
"Poseidon—" Bibi Dong parted her red lips slightly and uttered the name, "The High Priest of Poseidon Island, truly lives up to her reputation."
Poseidon Island.
The moment Poseidon's figure appeared on the sky.
"Greetings, High Priest!!"
The seven titled Douluo guarding the Seven Sacred Pillars of Poseidon Island—Sea Dragon, Seahorse, Sea Spear, Sea Illusion, Sea Ghost, Sea Star, and Sea Maiden—knelt down in unison, their expressions devout and fervent.
In every corner of Poseidon Island, countless sea spirit masters, and even ten-thousand-year-old sea spirit beasts leaping from the sea, bowed their heads toward the direction of the Poseidon Temple.
This is absolute faith, the sole pillar of Poseidon Island.
Poseidon herself was standing in front of the Temple of Poseidon, quietly looking at herself in the sky.
The sea breeze ruffled her long hair, and her clear blue eyes showed no joy at being on the list, nor any pride at being compared to Bibi Dong.
Her eyes were deeper than the ocean.
The camera slowly zoomed in, giving Poseidon's eyes a close-up.
What kind of eyes were those?
Clear and pure, like a spring with its bottom visible, without any impurities.
It is deep, like a bottomless abyss, hiding countless secrets.
What it reveals is a kind of compassionate vicissitude.
That wasn't old age, but a kind of serenity after seeing through countless trials, as if one had experienced the ages and seen through all the joys and sorrows of the world.
In those eyes, people seemed to see the heroic figures of the three peerless Douluo sparring on Seagod Island a hundred years ago, and she saw her loneliness as she guarded the Seagod Temple alone, day after day, year after year.
I saw her endless waiting for the man who had promised to "not return until he becomes a god".
In the image, Poseidon gently raises the scepter in her hand.
Om-!
A soft blue halo spread out from her center, instantly enveloping the entire Poseidon Island. Wherever the light touched, all things grew, and wounds were healed.
She smiled slightly, a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, instantly captivating the hearts of countless people.
"The glory of the sea god will forever protect this sea."
Her voice was soft, yet clear, reaching every corner with a power to soothe the soul.
At this moment, whether it was the nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire, the soldiers of the Star Luo Empire, or ordinary people, they all had to admit that this woman's beauty had transcended her physical appearance and risen to the level of spirit and soul.
Standing there, she is the perfect embodiment of the word "goddess".
However, just as everyone was captivated by Poseidon's unparalleled beauty, the scene in the sky rippled once again.
Poseidon's figure gradually faded away, but that ocean-like aura did not completely dissipate.
[TOP 5 Poseidons, presentation complete.]
[Next, we'll announce the Top 4 of the Douluo Star Goddess Ranking!]
As the rankings rose, everyone's curiosity was completely piqued.
Even a peerless Douluo like Poseidon, with unparalleled temperament and extraordinary strength, can only be ranked fifth. So who are the four ranked ahead of her? Could they be goddesses descended from heaven?
The scene began to change, and the original azure ocean background disappeared.
Instead, there was a lush green forest full of life, and—a warm atmosphere that felt incredibly welcoming, like returning to a mother's embrace.
