Chapter 357: The Saint Seiya Rule—A Technique Once Used Will No Longer Be Effective

"Sea God, let me spar with you for a few moves!"

Just as Qian Renxue was fiercely battling the Asura God, Xiao Yu calmly stood before the Sea God.

"Xiao Yu, even if I die and my soul is destroyed today, I'll drag you to the underworld with me!"

The Sea God's eyes burned with venomous hatred. The destruction of his divine core was even harder to accept than the death of his successor, Tang San.

If Tang San had died, he could still find another successor. After all, he hadn't left the God Realm yet, and with the help of his good friend, the Asura God, he could continue to linger in the realm under the title of Sea God, even after passing down the position.

But now, with the core destroyed and no divine power to sustain him, the Sea God could not even hold onto his divine position—let alone anything else.

Boom!

A surge of divine power erupted from the Sea God's body, transforming into a torrent of fierce gales.

"Children of the sea, offer your power to your god!"

With a resounding cry, azure-blue light swept across the ocean. Every sea creature that believed in the Sea God surfaced as if summoned. Countless threads of faith energy shot into the sky, converging toward the Sea God.

Knowing that whether he won or lost this battle, his divine position would not survive, the Sea God recklessly overdrawn his believers' faith.

Behind him, seven massive rings appeared—divine rings, the symbols of gods in the Douluo God Realm.

In the God Realm, a god's strength was judged by their number of divine rings.

Those without any were merely divine officials like Qian Daoliu.

Three rings signified a Third-Class God, five a Second-Class God, and seven a First-Class God. The most powerful, a God-King, had nine rings.

As the power of belief poured in, the Sea God's divine energy surged. The seven divine rings behind him shone with blinding brilliance.

"So this is the power of faith..."

A glint of envy flickered in the Asura God's eyes as he fought Qian Renxue. He had schemed for so long precisely for the vast divine power of the Douluo Plane.

"Xiao Yu, die!"

With the power of faith empowering him, the Sea God's cultivation faintly surpassed that of a First-Class God and neared that of a God-King. The trident he forged from divine energy burst with golden light, indistinguishable from the original divine artifact.

He stepped forward and unleashed Unfixed Storm with a swing of his trident.

A dazzling golden ring spun rapidly through the air.

"Sea God, let me teach you something today—don't ever use a technique in front of me that you've used before!"

Xiao Yu shouted, sweeping his sword horizontally. The razor-sharp sword energy tore through space.

The unbreakable Saint Seiya rule: a move used once will be ineffective the second time!

Unfixed Storm, praised as the ultimate restricting skill for both offense and defense, still crumbled in the face of absolute strength.

With a soft sound, the golden ring shattered instantly.

The Sea God's expression changed, and he followed up with the second technique, Thousand Waves Empty Strike. Explosions rang out, violent energy surging like a storm. Countless phantom tridents rained down like a tempest.

"I already told you—don't use the same tricks on me again!"

Xiao Yu's Pluto Sword flipped in his hand, and countless sword shadows burst forth. A chain of surging shockwaves exploded in the air, obliterating every phantom of the Sea God's tridents.

The attack of Thousand Waves Empty Strike was easily nullified. But Xiao Yu's counterattack wasn't over. Sword shadows stormed toward the Sea God, striking his divine armor and leaving deep gashes.

"Damn it!"

The Sea God cursed, but he took Xiao Yu's words to heart. Originally, after Thousand Waves Empty Strike, he was going to unleash the third move of the Golden Thirteen Tridents—No Return. But now, he changed tactics.

A diamond-shaped sapphire on his chest radiated with dazzling light. A surge of blue-gold energy swept out from him, transforming into a colossal divine dragon that soared forward.

This divine dragon was condensed from the true yin water power of the ocean. Aside from the Golden Thirteen Tridents, it was one of the Sea God's other divine techniques, known for its immense offensive power.

The dragon's roar echoed through the heavens as the ocean surged. Countless blue lights poured forth and were absorbed into the dragon-shaped energy.

With every speck of blue light, the dragon's body expanded exponentially. In mere moments, it had grown to over a hundred meters in length, becoming a mighty blue-gold dragon.

"Kill!"

The Sea God roared, pointing the golden trident forward. The blue-gold dragon roared and lunged toward Xiao Yu.

"Now that's more interesting!"

Xiao Yu grinned, gripping his longsword. An immense power surged from within him and channeled into the Pluto Sword. A brilliant light burst forth from the blade.

In an instant, the heavens trembled—wind, lightning, thunder all stirred. This sword alone seemed to shake the world.

Boom!

With a deafening blast, the hundred-meter-long dragon formed from true yin water was cleaved in two by the sword light. The terrifying energy exploded outward, sending the Sea God flying under its immense impact.

Xiao Yu was entirely unaffected. As the Sea God was flung backward, he slashed his sword and followed up.

"Roiling like a beast that devours the heavens, silent yet embracing the firmament—Sea God's Domain!"

Sensing danger, the Sea God thrust his trident skyward and released his exclusive domain.

Waves of blue light gathered around the trident, radiating outward like ripples. In an instant, half the sky was blanketed in a veil of blue and gold.

"Azure Waves, Sea God, Endless Blue!"

With another shout, light-blue energy surged from the sea. The purest water elemental energy erupted, as though a second ocean had been peeled away from the first. Guided by the Sea God's divine sense, it transformed into a vast, boundless tidal wave that swept toward Xiao Yu.

"Is that all?"

Xiao Yu became a shooting star, and as the tidal wave neared him, it suddenly parted—almost as if making way for him on purpose.

"Poseidon!"

This was the first time Xiao Yu addressed the Sea God by name.

Only because, compared to the other Poseidon from a distant dimension, this one was utterly unworthy.

"You've defiled the name far too much. Oh Sea King of the distant dimension—today, I'll help you wipe out this blasphemous impostor!"
