Chapter 966: What about the other divine attributes?
The divine spark had fully taken shape, gradually fading away between Chen Huaian's brows.Chen Huaian slowly opened his eyes, two flashes of sword radiance passing through his pupils, instantly slicing through the surrounding seawater and creating a dry area.
Simultaneously, a terrifying oppressive aura spread out from him like a rising tide.
Crack, crack, crack—!
As the oppressive aura spread, densely packed, crisscrossing sword marks also appeared on the ground.
But in the eyes of the three Chief Gods, they didn't even see any sword light or sword qi flash. It seemed that just where Chen Huaian's gaze fell could annihilate everything.
Poseidon instinctively used his Sea God divine power to resist this oppressive aura, but his Sea God divine power was torn to shreds before it could even get close.
This tearing apart wasn't as effortless as using a knife to cut through a stream of water.
Because divinity is a type of rule power; it cannot be destroyed by physical or mental attacks.
Yet just moments ago, he discovered his divine rule disintegrated the instant it touched Chen Huaian's divinity.
His divinity turned into a pool of seawater, splashing 'splash, splash, splash' onto the ground.
Eve and Hades experienced the same.
They simply couldn't withstand Chen Huaian's divinity!
The expressions of the three Chief Gods changed drastically, and they immediately retreated.
But Chen Huaian's oppressive aura spread too quickly. Just as the divinity that annihilated everything was about to reach them—
Time seemed to freeze for an instant.
Then that divinity receded like a tide, shrinking back into Chen Huaian's body.
When they looked at Chen Huaian again, they found he seemed like just an ordinary person, with not a shred of divine majesty on him.
Only...
They couldn't gaze at Chen Huaian for long.
If they exceeded two seconds, a piercing, heart-wrenching pain would shoot through their eyes.
Poseidon knew deeply that this change was brought about by the divine spark, but it definitely wasn't just the divine spark; it also concerned Chen Huaian's own secrets.
He immediately withdrew his gaze to avoid meeting Chen Huaian's eyes.
Similar situations occurred when mortals faced them, the deities.
For example, when mortal Battle Masters directly faced Hades, just making eye contact with Hades could accelerate aging.
As the Goddess of Life and Nature, wherever Eve passed would, for decades to come, be filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, radiating vibrant life force.
This was the natural influence of higher-tier power on lower tiers, something deities couldn't control.
Now, they were being affected by the divine power on Chen Huaian's body.
In a sense, Chen Huaian was already an existence of a higher tier than them!
Realizing this, Poseidon found it almost unbelievable.
Could it be... that becoming a deity with ten Million-Year World Rings as a foundation could elevate one to an existence above Chief Gods?
No wonder the Golden Dragon King had set so many rules and restrictions; it was precisely these that limited the ultimate potential of Battle Master World Rings.
Thus, the Canglan Divine Realm had never again seen a power of a higher tier than deities, aside from the Gold and Silver Dragon Kings.
And now, this power had appeared.
Chen Huaian clenched his fist, feeling the immense power within his body.
Most of his Golden Immortal power had been restored.
With his current strength...
He glanced at Poseidon, Eve, and Hades.
Even if these three Chief Gods joined forces, he could easily defeat them without a scratch.
Yet, these Chief Gods still lived under the Golden Dragon King's tyranny.
From this, it was evident that even now, the Golden Dragon King's power was still above his.
Chen Huaian pointed two fingers together and made a slashing motion.
Swoosh—!
Although he didn't draw his sword, it was as if thousands of swords and blades sang in unison. The next second, a sword mark the width of a finger's gap appeared at his feet, slicing through the seawater, shattering the divinity of the three Chief Gods, and extending all the way outside the Sea God Temple, its end nowhere in sight.
"This Venerable One... is still quite a bit short."
Chen Huaian looked at the sword mark at his feet and shook his head regretfully.
Unbeknownst to him, the three Chief Gods looking at that sword mark were nearly scared out of their wits.
At this moment, Li Qingran was sitting cross-legged not far away, still comprehending the Sword Dao.
Only her brows were sometimes tightly furrowed, sometimes slightly twitching.
As if trapped in a maze of sword principles, turning around for a long time without finding the exit.
Chen Huaian tilted his head to glance at her.
Pointing two fingers together, he flicked them.
Whoosh!
A phantom image of a flying sword shot from his fingertips, landing silently on Li Qingran's shoulder.
The phantom image merged into her body. Li Qingran's furrowed brows seemed smoothed by that wisp of sword intent. Her breathing gradually evened out, and her entire being sank into a deeper level of comprehension.
The three Chief Gods exchanged glances and stepped forward.
Poseidon spoke first, his tone cautious, carrying a hint of probing. "Your Excellency... how do you feel? How much of the sealed power has been unlocked?"
Chen Huaian withdrew his gaze, looked down at his own palm, then clenched it again.
"Still a bit short."
Poseidon and Hades looked at each other.
A flash of terror appeared in both their eyes.
A bit short?
He's already this strong, and it's still not fully unsealed? Then... how terrifying would this existence from the greater world be if all his power were unsealed?
Poseidon pondered for a moment, weighing his words. "But Your Excellency's current situation... absorbing more Million-Year World Rings is meaningless now.
The level of power has undergone a fundamental change. The accumulation of World Rings, for the current you, is like pouring a cup of water into the sea."
Chen Huaian didn't answer immediately.
He stood where he was, silent for a while.
The Sea God Temple was so quiet that only the faint sound of seawater flowing remained.
"Your words hold reason." After a long while, Chen Huaian looked up at Poseidon, his tone flat. "This Venerable One now possesses a divine spark. World Rings are indeed useless."
He paused.
The corner of his mouth curled into a dangerous arc.
"Then... what about other divine sparks?"
Poseidon's pupils abruptly contracted.
Hades' legs trembled.
Even Eve paled, taking half a step back.
The temperature inside the Sea God Temple instantly dropped to freezing point.
The smile on Chen Huaian's face didn't change much. His gaze swept over the three Chief Gods one by one, finally settling back on Poseidon's face.
"Your Excellency, what do you mean by that?" Poseidon's eyes were full of vigilance, staring fixedly at Chen Huaian as if watching a ferocious beast that might erupt and devour someone at any moment.
"The literal meaning."
Chen Huaian said unhurriedly:
"Doesn't the Golden Dragon King still have some die-hard loyal deities?
Since these deities will be obstacles to killing the Golden Dragon King in the future anyway...
Why don't you find a way to invite all these deities together...
When the time comes, This Venerable One will wipe them all out in one go. Not only can it enhance This Venerable One's strength, but it can also help you clear obstacles. How about it?"
Hearing this, Poseidon's mouth twitched, and his eyelids even more violently jumped.
Wait, is he this arrogant?
He even doubted if he had heard wrong.
How many deities were there in the Canglan Realm? Most of them were completely loyal to the Golden Dragon King. With the statuses of him, Eve, and Hades, the three Chief Gods, they could invite at least a hundred deities.
Did this person before him plan to fight over a hundred deities single-handedly?
"Are you sure?" He narrowed his eyes, his voice low. "That's over a hundred deities, multiple divine systems...
And once the killing starts, the Golden Dragon King will inevitably notice.
As long as it discovers it, it means there won't be a second chance. You..."
"This Venerable One is sure."
Chen Huaian interrupted Poseidon's words.
"Merely over a hundred deities are nothing but clay chickens and pottery dogs.
To This Venerable One, it's equivalent to chopping melons and slicing vegetables.
You just need to do as This Venerable One requests!"
