Chapter 249: Chapter 239 The Sea God is about to Awaken
The White Sea was almost calm, hiding a large island that always maintained its concealment.
On the island, thick fog often enveloped the land, reducing visibility to a minimum, while light gray clouds occasionally shrouded the heads of the people, blocking the glaring sunlight in the distance.
The sea breeze gently blew, bringing a moist scent, and people could feel the salty humidity permeating the air.
On the periphery of the island, a seemingly boundless forest stretched far into the distance, the heavy mist intertwining with the trees to form a tranquil and hazy sight.
Occasionally, the rocks at certain parts of the island would emit a deep rumbling sound, and with the tide’s ebb and flow, the waves continuously crashed against the seaside rocks, creating echoing sounds.
In the center of the island stood a gigantic Sea God statue that resembled a monster, with six limbs and three fish tails, wielding a huge trident in its hands. Although it was merely a sculpture, the authority it exuded felt palpably oppressive.
The White Sea natives all knelt on the ground, their expressions frantic, as they prayed fervently to the great Sea God.
“Oh mighty Monarch of the seas, Sea God, please bless us!”
“Hurry, drive away those Cyart people from the west!”
“And the Winged Folk and glacier inhabitants from the east, kill all the Winged Folk! Expel the glacier inhabitants!”
The priests also prayed, while occasionally glancing forward.
Underneath the gargantuan Sea God statue, there was a transparent protective bubble, and inside it lay a middle-aged man in a sky-blue robe with his eyes closed.
The High Priest Sky Blue had been gravely injured by the “Thunderous Monarch” years ago and had been in a slumber ever since because of a Forbidden rare artifact.
Suddenly, his fingers started to twitch slightly, and then he opened his eyes.
“He’s awake, finally awake! Hahaha! Finally, he has come to!”
“The High Priest Sky Blue has come to!”
The sight stirred the priests into almost uncontrollable cheers; the Sea God Cult’s only Monarch powerful expert had finally awakened!
What a relief! The Sea God Cult, which was on the brink of destruction, finally had a future again!
“…”
Among the many priests of the Sea God Cult, only Priestess Cyan Blue’s thoughts were complex.
She had secretly converted to the great Lord of the Lost and was now undercover within the Sea God Cult; she had thought that the Sea God Cult’s demise was only a matter of time, but she never expected that the High Priest Sky Blue, who had been comatose for years after the “Thunderous Monarch” had injured him, would actually awaken!
“What about Sage Dark Blue?”
After emerging from the bubble, the High Priest Sky Blue’s first inquiry was about Sage Dark Blue.
The oldest among them, Priest Deep Blue, stepped forward slowly and replied with a heavy tone, “Sage Dark Blue, he was killed by Viscount Bast. Please, accept my condolences!”
Everyone knew that Sage Dark Blue was the High Priest Sky Blue’s twin brother, and their relationship was unimaginably close.
The High Priest Sky Blue was silent for a long while before calmly responding, “I see.”
“But he hasn’t completely passed away. Dark Blue is my twin brother; a part of his soul resides within me, so as long as I am alive, I can revive him in a special form.”
The priests were stunned, having never imagined such a possibility.
The High Priest Sky Blue continued, “It’s not something strange because the souls of twins are one and the same, and the method of rebirth from mutual life is a piece of Forbidden knowledge Dark Blue had explored in the Spirit Realm.”
“He had foreseen the possibility of an accident befalling him or me; hence, the other twin was to act as an insurance.”
At this point, Priestess Cyan Blue’s thoughts started to scatter in disarray. This was bad!
The Fischer family was currently in a weakened state, and if the two most important figures of the Sea God Cult both returned, then Nasir Town on the East Coast would eventually become a target of the Sea God Cult!
By then, what should she do?
“Cyan Blue?”
Suddenly, she heard the High Priest Sky Blue calling her.
“Ah?”
Priestess Cyan Blue was startled and took a moment to respond.
The voice of the High Priest Sky Blue continued, deep and mysterious.
“You don’t seem very happy?”
