223. Chapter 221: Faith

……

"You told her so openly and even let her leave; aren't you worried she'll quietly tell Poseidon about this?"

Bibi Dong did not quite understand Nan Feng's recent actions.

The risk was too great.

"She will definitely tell him. I don't doubt her faith in the Sea God; even if Tang Chen and the Sea God were placed side by side, she would choose the Sea God without hesitation," Nan Feng said.

"Moreover, it is fine for Poseidon to know about this."

"Why?" Bibi Dong asked, puzzled.

"Have you forgotten that Poseidon and Xiuluo are thick as thieves?"

"Don't look at problems so emotionally; this isn't a matter of being thick as thieves," Nan Feng said.

"By sitting idly by, there is no harm to Poseidon in this matter; the Sea God's faith could even use this opportunity to expand further."

"But if Poseidon intervenes, don't forget where we are right now."

"Besides, Poseidon already has the intention to pass on his godhood and leave. The only reason he hasn't chosen to abandon the Sea God's godhood and leave is that he cannot let go of Sea God Island. Compared to the Angel God, Poseidon is much more sentimental."

Don't talk about keeping the Shenhai Mojing Wang to bolster his own importance; there are plenty of predators hidden in this ocean, and Poseidon's faith on the sea doesn't need the Shenhai Mojing Wang for comparison at all.

The Shenhai Mojing Wang only exists in the Demon Whale Sea Area, but every Spirit Master on the sea, and even the vast majority of marine life, believes in the Sea God because it was Poseidon who ended the chaos of the ocean and brought peace to this sea.

Furthermore, with the existence of the Sea God Island Holy Pillar Trial, everyone believes that the Sea God exists.

Whether the Shenhai Mojing Wang exists or not has no impact on the faith in the Sea God; that guy is only alive today because Poseidon doesn't want to kill it.

Poseidon is the Sea God; he protects not only human Spirit Masters but also Soul Beasts. Every life existing in this ocean is under his protection.

Among Soul Beasts, the Shenhai Mojing Wang is a threat to both humans and Soul Beasts? Then what about human Spirit Masters?

Aren't human Spirit Masters killing each other? Aren't they hunting Soul Beasts?

The Shenhai Mojing Wang devoured a large number of Soul Beasts?

Do other carnivorous Soul Beasts not kill? Do humans not hunt large numbers of sea Soul Beasts? It's all the same.

In Poseidon's eyes, the Shenhai Mojing Wang, human Spirit Masters, and other predatory Soul Beasts are all of the same nature.

The only difference is merely that the Shenhai Mojing Wang is relatively stronger.

But to the Sea God, it is still something he can kill whenever he wants.

Even in the original story, when Poseidon demanded that Tang San kill the Shenhai Mojing Wang, it wasn't to maintain some so-called ocean peace; it was because Poseidon had already given the Shenhai Mojing Wang enough time, yet the guy still recklessly provoked Sea God Island.

Poseidon killing the Shenhai Mojing Wang was essentially to maintain his own dignity as the Sea God.

"Poseidon views this ocean from the perspective of a god, not from the perspective of a Sea God Island master; you must make this clear," Nan Feng said.

"He is the Sea God, not the god of humans, nor the god of Soul Beasts; he is the god of this ocean."

"Unlike the Angel God, he views all life living in this ocean equally. He doesn't discriminate against Soul Beasts; at most, he just has a slight preference for humans."

"Poseidon's vision is definitely much greater than that of most gods."

"Moreover, he is the Sea God; what he values most is still this ocean and Sea God Island."

"And you are the Rakshasa God, while I am a ghost-like existence. If he chooses to be our enemy over this matter, what will happen to Sea God Island?"

"Don't just stare at his little friendship with Xiuluo; you have to look at him as a whole."

"Poseidon is not the type of person who would throw everything away for a bit of friendship with a friend. To be able to conquer the entire ocean and gain the faith of countless marine lives, he definitely possesses more than just force."

"What if?" Bibi Dong said.

"What if an accident really happens?"

"Up until now, have I ever been wrong?" Nan Feng asked.

"Even the worst outcome, wasn't it within my expectations?"

"Since you trust me, then don't doubt me."

"I just don't want you to act on emotion," Bibi Dong said. "Poseixi is currently trustworthy; don't forget, you killed Tang Chen."

Nan Feng felt a bit helpless, "What is the essence of human emotion? Don't I know that?"

"What is Poseixi's emotion toward Tang Chen?"

"Love? Don't joke."

"It's nothing more than being dazzled by the strong, just like a young girl's infatuation, the same feelings one develops for a handsome boy next door. This kind of feeling is simple, so it lasts, but precisely because it is too simple, it has no real emotional support, so it is incomparably fragile."

"How many days have Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen been on Sea God Island?"

"How long have they known each other? Do they understand each other?"

"All of Poseixi's emotions toward Tang Chen are based on being dazzled by his powerful strength, but now, what is Tang Chen's little bit of ability worth?"

"I am the first person since the Dragon Talisman passed away to withstand the Great Tribulation of becoming a god. Tang Chen? Just a failure who lost himself in the God Trial."

"So what if I killed Tang Chen? That guy was just less skilled than others; can you blame me for that?"

Bibi Dong's face looked strange, "Are you boasting?"

"Isn't what I said the truth?" Nan Feng retorted.

"……"

……

"That guy is actually still alive..."

Sea God Hall.

Just as Nan Feng thought, Poseixi soon told Poseidon about this matter.

And upon learning that Nan Feng was still alive and even residing in Bibi Dong's body, Poseidon actually breathed a sigh of relief.

He just said that human emotions couldn't be twisted to that extent! Bibi Dong devouring Nan Feng at the time was clearly to save him! This, damn it, was the human emotion he knew! Damn! He was scared to death!

During this time, he really thought human emotions had become so twisted! "Lord Sea God?" Poseixi looked with a strange expression at Poseidon, who seemed to be somewhat happy.

"Ahem." Poseidon resumed his dignified appearance.

"This matter... what do you think?"

"I... don't know." Poseixi shook her head.

Nan Feng certainly knew she would tell the Sea God about this, but he still chose to let her leave after clarifying the matter.

She was somewhat uncertain about Nan Feng's purpose.

"Then do you think the purpose he stated is true?" Poseidon asked.

"I feel... it is true." Poseixi said, feeling somewhat nervous.

"Then your feeling is indeed correct," Poseidon said.

"Ah?" Poseixi was stunned.

"You don't know what he has done on the continent all these years." Poseidon sighed.

"It is no exaggeration to say that his influence on the continent now is no weaker than my influence on the ocean."

"If conditions had allowed, he would have been fully capable of becoming a god through faith; his Divine Power might even have surpassed mine."

The power of faith does not truly increase the rank of a godhood, but once the power of faith merges with Divine Power, it can unleash strength that transcends the godhood rank! It is just that this power is unstable, can only serve as a temporary boost, and the effect of the boost is based on the intensity of the faith, so the gods of the God Realm have no interest in the power of faith.

Even for someone like him who became a god through faith, he never touched that stuff again after condensing his godhood.

A large amount of the power of faith can bring about a short-term burst, but it is gone after the burst; it is not long-lasting.

But the power of faith Nan Feng currently has on the Douluo Continent is very strange! Even though everyone thinks he is dead, that power is still constantly strengthening!

That is a kind of faith that requires no miracles, and does not even require a god! (End of chapter)
