Chapter 180: Divine Soul!
With the boundless energy of the Sea God surging around him, Neptune's torso armor fused completely with his limb armor, forming a true unified set the Five Elements were complete! At this moment, he could feel that he could now unleash the Great Five Elements Divine Light at will, delivering devastating consequences to any enemy. It was as if he had gained an incredibly powerful innate divine ability!
As his torso and limbs fully integrated, the final platform holding his head soul bone floated up. A small vortex formed around it as the bone began to transform… Dazzling blue gold light flickered as a miniature trident shaped crest appeared, connected by a circular band, forming a blue gold trident headpiece. At the center of the circular ring, there was a hollowed out engraving of a small trident.
As it drifted toward Neptune, the headpiece settled on his head, binding his long blue hair together. The trident engraving aligned perfectly with the Sea God Trident brand on his forehead. In that instant, a brilliant blue gold radiance erupted!
Simultaneously, the Sea God Trident in his hand underwent a transformation. The golden engravings on the trident gleamed intensely, the golden light merging with the Sea God's divine glow to form a brilliant blue gold hue that spread across the entire weapon.
At the same time, the trident emblem on Neptune's headpiece fused with his forehead mark, and in place of the engraving, a small rhombus shaped gemstone emerged, further enhancing the perfection and radiance of the blue gold headpiece.
In that moment, Neptune felt himself becoming the absolute core of this realm. Intense blue gold mist erupted from his body, growing denser until it coalesced into a towering blue gold beam of light shooting toward the heavens!
This overwhelming energy merged with everything imprinted in the deepest recesses of Neptune's soul, creating an unprecedented surge of power.
The blue gold hue in his eyes gradually faded, returning to their original deep blue, but Neptune could feel that his soul had undergone a fundamental transformation!
Not only that, but his true body and other avatars also benefited from this change… they had all completely evolved into divine level beings, possessing true divine souls!
Before this, no matter how strong his spirit or how immense his mental power was even surpassing that of some ordinary gods he was still technically at a mortal level. But now, with his soul's evolution into a divine soul… even if his physical body were destroyed, his soul would never dissipate.
A normal person's soul is like ice when submerged in water, it gradually melts away. A god's divine soul, however, is like iron no matter how fiercely it is burned, it cannot be completely destroyed. This is the fundamental difference between a divine soul and an ordinary mortal soul!
No matter how strong an ordinary soul becomes, its fragile essence remains unchanged; once it loses the protection of the body, it will inevitably weaken and fade. But a divine soul is immune to external forces it can exist independently and remain intact indefinitely. This uniqueness is what separates gods from mortals.
With the final head soul bone transforming into the headpiece and settling onto Neptune's head, the Sea God's Divine Armor was finally complete!
Every divine armor set is an integral part of the god who wields it. Since each piece of this armor was forged from Neptune's own soul bones, they were perfectly fused with his body. Even though they had transformed into armor, they remained an intrinsic part of him. This would never change.
BOOM!!!
The massive vortex surrounding the platform suddenly exploded, unleashing a violent storm of energy that swept across the circular platform, engulfing both Neptune and the Sea God Trident in his grasp.
Neptune's expression remained calm and composed. He slowly raised his right hand and firmly grasped the Sea God Trident, now burning with a dazzling blue gold flame.
The moment he gripped the trident, an intense blue gold blaze erupted from his body, and the chaotic currents in the air seemed to freeze in place.
In the next instant, Neptune had already lifted the resplendent Sea God Trident high above his head, its golden light piercing toward the sky!
RUMBLE!!!!
An immense suction force suddenly exploded from every part of Neptune's being. His blue gold Sea God Armor shone brighter than ever, radiating an unprecedented divine brilliance!
The golden ocean surrounding the platform churned violently, and waves of golden energy surged in from all directions at lightning speed, flooding into Neptune's body. Blue gold flames enveloped him, and from his feet, one ring after another of radiant soul rings began to rise.
A thunderous voice echoed from all directions:
"Sea God's Ninth Trial Completed. Sea God Inheritance Perfect Integration. The Sea God has been reborn. All soul ring ages increased by 50,000 years."
One by one, Neptune's soul rings ascended from his feet brilliant, overwhelming, breathtaking!
The first soul ring that appeared was red, and around the red glow, a layer of dazzling blue gold light shimmered. The second was the same, followed by the third, and so on… All nine soul rings were the same each one was red, surrounded by a magnificent blue gold radiance.
Then came the final, tenth soul ring completely blue gold, a true divine ring!
All soul rings had reached the 100,000 year level.
Neptune's soul ring configuration had finally caught up to and even surpassed his true body and other avatars.
Originally, due to his incomplete strength, his soul rings had followed the standard configuration of two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. After receiving rewards from the Sea God's trials, his soul rings had improved to five black and four red, finally closing the gap somewhat but it was still not as impressive as his true body.
Now, after fully inheriting the Sea God's power, his final reward was a 50,000 year boost to all soul rings, allowing him to surpass even his original expectations.
Most importantly, he had unlocked the tenth soul ring a true divine level ring!
A nine red, one blue gold configuration this alone was enough to terrify the entire world. Because only true gods possessed a tenth soul ring!
At this moment, Neptune could no longer feel the limits of his power. His strength had grown to an unimaginable level, and now, the only thought in his mind was absolute control.
The Sea God Trident, once prone to turning black due to energy depletion, now would never lose its radiance again. It was completely fused with Neptune's soul, becoming an inseparable extension of himself just like the divine armor forged from his soul bones. They were now one and the same.
"HAHAHAHA!!!"
Feeling unparalleled exhilaration, Neptune couldn't help but laugh heartily. He effortlessly swung the Sea God Trident in a light motion, and as the glowing blue gold blade streaked through the air, a rift instantly appeared in the empty void.
With a single step, Neptune vanished through the spatial crack. The scenery around him shifted, and the moment his feet touched solid ground again, he found himself back inside the Sea God's temple, where he had first met the former Sea God.
But now, the temple was completely empty.
Clearly, the former Sea God had wasted no time in leaving after passing down his godhood.
