Chapter 31: Deep Sea Demon Whale King, The Tool; Sea God's True Face Revealed

[To ensure that marine creatures would willingly provide me with Power of Faith for generations, I showed mercy to the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who harms the ocean.]

[The Deep Sea Demon Whale King is one of the ocean's overlords; he is bloodthirsty and tyrannical, devouring countless marine Soul Beasts and humans.]

[Although I had enough power to eliminate this threat when I fought him, I did not.]

[Only by leaving the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to continue threatening the ocean would marine beings always need me, and only then could my Power of Faith endure forever.]

[Where there is darkness, there will be light; if the ocean were peaceful, my existence would no longer be necessary.]

[I created Sea God Island, leaving my legacy to guard the ocean.]

[After my ascension to the God Realm, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, as expected, did not change his nature and continued to harm the ocean.]

[Fortunately, Sea God Island, which I left behind, resisted the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, protecting marine creatures, and the world sang praises of my greatness.]

[For ten thousand years, my Power of Faith has been continuous.]

"That damn Sea God. I knew he didn't kill me back then out of kindness."

"So he spared me to use me."

The Deep Sea Demon Whale King roared angrily.

This feeling of being used made him very uncomfortable.

However, he was now only one step away from becoming a god.

Once he devoured enough living beings, he would transform into a dragon and ascend to godhood.

At that time, he would settle both old and new grudges.

"How could this be…?"

"Was Sea God's so-called protection of ocean peace merely for the Power of Faith?"

The Seven Sacred Pillars felt as if the sky had fallen.

They had always respected the Sea God from the bottom of their hearts, dedicating everything to protecting the ocean.

But they never expected that the Sea God's ideals were not pure at all.

Over the years, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King frequently harassed Sea God Island and devoured a large number of marine creatures.

Even Bo Saixi had no way to deal with the Deep Sea Demon Whale King!

Sea God, who originally could stop all of this, chose to let it go unchecked.

And the Sea God even deliberately left the Deep Sea Demon Whale King to harm the ocean.

Bo Saixi felt a faint pain in her heart!

This feeling of shattered faith was fatal for a loyal believer.

The proud duty of Sea God Island was merely a tool for Sea God to extract the Power of Faith.

In the Sea God's eyes, they might be just like the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

"As expected of a god!"

"Such calculation is truly formidable!"

Ning Fengzhi only felt admiration for the Sea God's actions.

He was also such a smiling tiger.

On the surface, he prioritized righteousness, but in reality, his main concern was his interests.

If Sea God had quelled all ocean unrest and eliminated all threats before his ascension, then over time, everyone would slowly forget.

Not being needed meant not gaining sincere believers.

Faith was very important to a god.

Sea God certainly would not allow such a thing to happen.

If it weren't for the Sky Curtain's exposure,

Sea God would still be a sacred and great existence in the hearts of all marine beings.

This was the most crucial point.

He calculated against you, yet you still felt grateful.

"Indeed, the older the ginger, the spicier it is!"

Ning Fengzhi felt ashamed of his inferiority.

If it were him, he probably wouldn't be able to use such methods as Sea God.

Ning Fengzhi learned something new.

Angel Temple…

Qian Yuhan shook her head, her face filled with disappointment.

"Sea God, you and I are not on the same path after all!"

Qian Yuhan and Sea God parted ways precisely because the latter was hypocritical.

The Angel God's philosophy was always light and justice.

On this point, Qian Yuhan did not mix in any impurities.

She would never deliberately leave evil to harm the world for the sake of the Power of Faith.

For ten thousand years, Spirit Hall had always adhered to the philosophy she left behind.

Striking down evil Soul Masters and striving to build a beautiful continent.

Even if Spirit Hall wanted to unify the continent,

It was also to push the entire continent toward a better future.

To create a world where everyone is equal!

"Damn it!"

"Publicly undermining me like this— they want to destroy my faith!"

Sea God clenched his fists, his face filled with anger.

His selfish motives were exposed, his true face revealed, and his perfect persona completely ceased to exist.

If he couldn't destroy the Sky Curtain,

He would tear the other party down.

Heaven Dou Royal Palace!

"Qinghe, from now on, you must learn more of these methods of a superior!"

"When you ascend to the throne and take charge of the empire in the future, you can also choose to emulate this."

Emperor Xue Ye earnestly reminded him.

As an emperor, he didn't care about peace or anything like that.

He only cared about the imperial family's interests!

Sea God's actions could be described as taking advantage and still acting innocent.

He gained a good reputation and also gained the Power of Faith.

If it hadn't been exposed by the Sky Curtain,

The Sea God's great image would forever circulate throughout the entire ocean.

Qian Renxue nodded impassively.

"I understand, Imperial Father!"

Although Qian Renxue outwardly agreed,

She deeply despised such behavior in her heart.

As the successor of the Angel God,

She disdained using such underhanded methods.

She was determined to eradicate all evil with the sword in her hand.

[Ten thousand years passed, and I found life in the God Realm boring; my cultivation also reached a bottleneck.]

[I decided to find a successor to take over my god position, and then travel the universe, seeking opportunities to become stronger.]

[Finally, I discovered a young man named Tang San; he had gained the recognition of the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and only by enduring my Vast Sea Power could he inherit the Sea God position.]

[I began to meticulously cultivate Tang San, helping him overcome dangers and escape death on multiple occasions.]

[Although this violated the rules, I would never allow any mishaps to befall the successor I had chosen.]

[Later, I guided Tang San to kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.]

[The Deep Sea Demon Whale King was about to transform into a dragon and become a god; the God Realm had given clear instructions that Soul Beasts were not allowed to become gods, so the Deep Sea Demon Whale King had to die.]

[If Tang San could personally kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, he would be able to firmly establish himself in the ocean, and the inheritance of the Sea God position would naturally follow.]

[With my help and the intervention of that guy Asura, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was successfully slain.]

[The death of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King made all marine creatures recognize Tang San.]

[However, the Angel God's successor achieved godhood faster than Tang San.]

[To suppress Qian Renxue, I tampered with her god trial a little, and Qian Yuhan did not notice.]

[I hope my successor can destroy Spirit Hall, defeat the second-generation Angel God, and become the only god in Douluo.]

[Only then will he live up to my cultivation!]

[Later, Tang San successfully passed the Seagod Nine Trials, and when facing the Angel God Qian Renxue, he did not fail to live up to his trust and defeated her.]

[It's a pity that Spirit Hall had two gods.]

[Bibi Dong's intervention put Tang San in danger, but fortunately, that guy Asura was reliable and allowed Tang San to bear dual god positions.]

[Ultimately, the Rakshasa God Bibi Dong died protecting her daughter, and the Angel God Qian Renxue's godhood was abolished.]

[Tang San became the only god in Douluo, enjoying all the Power of Faith, and I contentedly went into retirement.]

{T/N: According to Timeline, Angel God should have fallen. Otherwise, many things don't make any sense.}
