Chapter 241: Divine Prohibition
On the coast of the East China Sea.
Dark clouds loomed over the entire sky, with chaotic layers of clouds blocking any light from breaking through, and faint flashes of lightning churned within the clouds.
Beneath the clouds, the sea roared like a massive black beast, surging up to dozens of meters high, as if it were trying to connect with the clouds above.
The howling winds swept along the coastline, uprooting even trees thick enough for several people to embrace, crashing them into the café on the other side of the street.
Wave after wave crashed onto the shore, pounding against the deserted streets, with splashes that seemed capable of engulfing a skyscraper. The seawater surged into the uneven streets, and the wind and rain enveloped half the city.
It was like the end of the world!
At this moment, all residents within five kilometers of the coastline had evacuated. Caution tape surrounded the coast, but it snapped under the impact of the waves, being swallowed by the sea.
Several helicopters flew over the sky, circling around the coastline, while a few men in military uniforms stared intently at the sea, their faces grim.
This scene… was far more terrifying than those disaster sci-fi movies. One man couldn’t help but speak up, wondering what could possibly cause such a large-scale disaster. It had to be something unimaginable, right?
Unimaginable? What are you joking about? One person beside him shook his head, knowing that this was not just one city; dozens of cities along the East China Sea had turned into this ghastly sight. Even Klein couldn’t achieve this level…
The man seemed to realize something. Are you saying this is…
At that moment, a serious voice echoed in everyone’s earpiece.
Target appeared! Repeat! Target appeared!! Everyone, do not act rashly, do not attempt to attack the target, do not do anything unnecessary, maintain radio silence!
Everything will be handled by someone.
Upon hearing this, everyone held their breath and scanned the coastline.
Booming—!
Suddenly, the black sea seemed to boil, churning violently, and in the distance, a colossal wave rose up, blocking out the sun!
This wave was so high that it reached into the sky, pulling down a corner of the thunderclouds, with swirling lightning mixing with the wave, roaring as it crashed toward the small city before them.
If this wave were to fall, the entire city would be instantly reduced to ruins.
Everyone in the helicopters swallowed hard, gripping the handles beside them tightly, their knuckles turning white, their hearts racing.
Ding—!!
At that moment, a clear sound of a sword ringing came from afar, instantly drowning out the massive, low roar of the waves. When this sound rang out, the entire world seemed to fall into a dead silence.
Then, the overwhelming wave suddenly hesitated, and in the next moment, it was forcefully severed at the waist, as if an invisible sword had sliced through the wave that stretched for over ten kilometers!
The broken wave crashed into the sea, sending up large splashes, and the tremendous sound echoed in the sky like a missile explosion.
This catastrophe, capable of destroying a city, was so simply resolved.
On the helicopter, everyone’s gaze fell upon the figure slowly walking along the coastline.
In the tumultuous wind and rain, beneath the hazy city, the ground was littered with fragments of reflections.
A young man holding a long sword sheath stepped over the shattered street, his rain-soaked hair naturally drooping down, obscuring his eyes. The fierce wind lifted a corner of his black shirt as he lowered his head, walking step by step toward the sea.
Booming…
The sea surface churned again, and the next moment, an even larger wave surged into the sky, tearing through the thick clouds, roaring as it crashed down toward the earth!
The young man still kept his head down, his gaze fixed on his toes, seemingly uninterested in everything outside.
His palm gently lifted, once again striking the long sheath in his arms.
Ding—!!
The sound of the sword rang out again, and the swirling wave was instantly pierced through, countless sword energies tearing it apart into a rain of fragments, dissipating over the sea.
His footsteps did not pause for a moment.
Step by step, step by step…
He reached the coastline and stopped beside a broken tree.
He lowered his head, glanced at the rolling sea, and spoke in a voice only he could hear:
In the territory of the Great Xia ahead, divine beings are forbidden.
His voice was small, almost like a mosquito in the roaring sound of the waves, but at the moment his words fell, the surging sea before him seemed to have been pressed on pause, suddenly freezing in place!
Every wave, every splash, every drop of seawater hung suspended in the air.
After a moment, the boundless sea suddenly began to surge again, rolling away to both sides… the sea was parted.
Between the parted waves, a magnificent figure emerged from the depths of the sea.
It was a man with an exotic face, bare-chested, holding a trident in his hand, with long black hair cascading down to his waist. Every movement exuded a terrifying pressure!
He stepped onto the surface of the sea and instantly appeared before the young man. The trident struck the ground, causing the entire city to tremble violently, and a deep, majestic voice echoed in the air.
Mortal, do you know… who I am?
Divine being code 009, Poseidon, the Sea God. The young man spoke calmly.
Poseidon’s eyes narrowed slightly, the proud nation, the faithless people! Divine beings… how dare you number us at will?
What credibility do you gods have? The young man looked at his toes, saying, except for the sword, I trust no one.
Poseidon gazed at the young man, and after a moment, slowly spoke:
Interesting, what is your name?
My name is Zhou Ping. The young man said, they all call me the Sword Saint.
Zhou Ping. Poseidon spoke calmly, a grand and terrifying pressure suddenly descended, crushing down on Zhou Ping’s shoulders, shattering the ground beneath his feet.
I admit, among the mortals I have seen, you are the strongest… but do you really think that with your mere mortal body, you can block the steps of the Sea God?
I can give it a try. Zhou Ping replied indifferently, the sword sheath in his arms opened half an inch, and the sound of the sword rang out again!
In an instant, a terrifying sword scar appeared on the ground between the two, and at the same time, a sharp sword intent erupted from Zhou Ping, actually contesting Poseidon’s divine pressure!
Poseidon’s expression changed slightly, and he spoke in a deep voice: The 【Shiva’s Grudge】 is an artifact representing absolute destruction. If it falls into the hands of an evil god, it will surely bring disaster. You, the Great Xia, have no gods, and cannot protect it!
Only by letting me take it back to Olympus can the disaster be avoided.
The matters of the Great Xia do not require you Greek gods to worry about. Zhou Ping gently grasped the long sword in the sheath, and his entire demeanor changed!
Endless sword energy surged into the sky, and Zhou Ping, who had kept his head lowered, slightly raised it, his indifferent gaze meeting Poseidon’s. He slowly spoke:
I will say it one last time… within the territory of the Great Xia, divine beings are forbidden!
