Chapter 28: Descend with Your True Body and Fight Me!

It is neither soul power nor Divine Power.

Could it be from another world?

"Who exactly are you?" the Sea God's avatar asked in a deep voice.

Zhexian did not answer, instead slowly standing up; the Golden Trident in his hand had completely lost its luster, as if it had turned into an ordinary weapon.

"This object is of no use to me," Zhexian said indifferently, then casually tossed the trident toward the Sea God's avatar.

The Sea God's avatar caught the trident and felt the faint divinity remaining on the shaft; his expression immediately turned ugly.

It could be said that the inherited divine artifact he had left in the Douluo Continent had completely turned into scrap metal!

"You dare to refine this god's divine artifact!" the Sea God's avatar roared, his Divine Power erupting instantly, causing the entire sea area to boil.

Zhexian merely gave a faint smile, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"This thing is not the original body of your divine artifact."

His voice was calm and indifferent, as if stating a fact.

The Sea God was stunned; how did this guy know?

However, before he could react, Zhexian's figure suddenly vanished from where he stood.

The next moment, he had already appeared before the Sea God's avatar, a long sword condensed from Immortal Qi forming in his hand, which he slashed fiercely toward the Sea God's avatar.

"Boom—!"

A brilliant sword light tore through the sky, instantly shredding the sea wave barrier around the Sea God.

The avatar was also forced back several steps by this sword, his eyes filled with shock.

"You... where on earth do you come from?!" the Sea God's avatar's voice carried a hint of disbelief.

Zhexian did not answer, instead swinging his sword again; the sword light was like a rainbow, pointing straight at the center of the Sea God's avatar's brow.

The Sea God's avatar hurriedly raised the Golden Trident to block, yet under Zhexian's Immortal Qi sword light, the trident actually began to show cracks.

"Crack—"

With a crisp sound, the shaft of the Golden Trident snapped, turning into countless fragments that scattered to the ground.

The figure of the Sea God's avatar also became illusory, as if it would dissipate at any moment.

"Lord Sea God's Golden Trident... it actually broke?"

The High Priest and the others watching from afar were completely dumbfounded; everything they believed in was shaken at this moment.

"You... you dare to destroy my divine artifact!" the Sea God's avatar's voice was filled with endless rage and unwillingness.

Zhexian merely glanced at him indifferently, then put away the Immortal Qi long sword and turned to walk toward the peak of the lonely mountain.

"A mere avatar, and you dare to clamor before me?" His voice was calm and indifferent, as if speaking of an unimportant matter.

"If you have the ability, descend with your true body and fight me!"

Zhexian's voice was like thunder, shaking the entire sea area.

No sooner had his voice fallen than a loud phoenix cry suddenly rang out in the sky, as if piercing through the boundaries of time and space, striking straight at the heart.

"True Phoenix Precious Technique—Power of the Heavenly Phoenix!"

Following Zhexian's low shout, a massive True Phoenix Shadow suddenly emerged behind him.

That True Phoenix was burning with fierce flames throughout its body, its wings spread wide, blotting out the sky as if to set the entire heavens ablaze.

The eyes of the True Phoenix flickered with endless majesty and holiness, as if it were the master of heaven and earth.

The Sea God's avatar felt that terrifying aura, and his expression immediately turned extremely ugly.

He could clearly feel that those flames were far beyond his range of understanding, even making him feel a trace of fear.

"This... what power is this?!" the Sea God's avatar's voice carried a hint of trembling.

Zhexian did not answer, instead gently raising his hand, a wisp of fierce flame condensing in his palm.

That flame was no ordinary fire, but the origin fire of the True Phoenix, containing endless power of destruction and rebirth.

"Go."

With his low shout, that wisp of flame instantly transformed into a fire phoenix, galloping toward the Sea God's avatar.

Wherever the fire phoenix passed, space seemed to be scorched and twisted, and the seawater instantly evaporated, turning into a void.

The Sea God's avatar hurriedly raised the Golden Trident in his hand, attempting to block this terrifying power.

However, the speed of the fire phoenix far exceeded his imagination.

In just an instant, the fire phoenix had already pierced through his Divine Power Barrier, slamming directly into his body.

"Boom—!"

With a loud bang, the figure of the Sea God's avatar was completely swallowed by the fire phoenix. Fierce flames burned around his body, as if to incinerate him completely.

"Ah—!"

The Sea God's avatar let out a shrill scream, his figure gradually becoming illusory within the flames, finally turning into specks of light and dissipating into the air.

In the distance, Poseixi and the seven Sea God Pillar Guardians watched this scene, dumbstruck, their hearts filled with shock and fear.

"Lord Sea God has actually been defeated?!" one guardian said, trembling, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"You lot may retreat, otherwise stay here!"

Zhexian's voice came from afar, and the seven Sacred Pillar Guardians looked in unison toward the High Priest.

At this moment, the High Priest was in a state of stupor, unable to hear any sound at all.

Several guardians exchanged glances, deciding to take the High Priest away first.

"High Priest, forgive us."

The group took the dazed High Priest away from this place.

Just after they left, Zhexian's figure slowly appeared.

At this time, a layer of pearly-white Immortal Qi flowed around his entire body, like the only existence between heaven and earth.

"That Sea God should be in a place similar to the Upper Realm; under many restrictions, his true body cannot descend here, and his avatar poses no threat to me."

Thinking of this, Zhexian dispelled his concerns, his figure flashing as he flew toward the direction of the continent.

Next was closed-door cultivation...

Zhexian's figure was like a streak of light, cutting through the sky and speeding toward the direction of the Douluo Continent.

His speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had already moved far away from the range of Sea God Island.

"The Dao laws of this continent are weak; if there were the power of Heavenly Tribulation..." Zhexian whispered softly, his gaze sweeping over the vast land below, a hint of contemplation flashing in his eyes.

His goal was very clear—to find a place suitable for closed-door cultivation to thoroughly refine the Divine Substance absorbed from the Sea God Trident and condense the Second Immortal Qi Embryo.

Although the Divine Substance of the Sea God Trident had been completely absorbed by him, that power had not yet been fully refined to nourish his own body and required a period of settling and refinement.

A moment later, Zhexian's figure appeared in the middle of a deep, secluded forest.

The aura of life here was rich, and in the center of the forest was a clear lake; the lake water was like a mirror, reflecting the clouds in the sky.

The surrounding environment was quiet and peaceful, as if isolated from the world.

"This place is not bad." Zhexian nodded slightly, not bothering to investigate the surroundings too much.

After finding a cave here, he set up a barrier to prevent any Soul Beast from intruding.

After finishing all this, Zhexian walked into the cave for closed-door cultivation.

And what Zhexian did not know was that shortly after he entered the cave, a figure slowly rose from the lake in the center of the forest...
