C130 – Obtained the Inheritance
“rely by approaching it, I sense the imnse power it exudes.”
Loong Chen positioned himself one ter away from the trident, his expression filled with gravity.
Loong Chen inhaled deeply and, at last, extended his hand towards the Trident.
The instant Loong Chen’s hand made contact with the Trident, he experienced an icy cold sensation piercing through his arm, reaching deep into his heart.
Loong Chen attempted to exert his strength.
“Rise!”
Loong Chen exclaid, channeling every ounce of his might.
Nevertheless, the trident remained immobile.
Oddly, the trident didn’t appear deeply embedded in the ground, yet it resisted all of Loong Chen’s efforts to extract it. It was as though the Trident weighed millions of kilograms.
“It seems he has failed.”
In that mont, the rmaids beneath him released disappointed sighs as they witnessed the scene.
Even the Elder rmaid’s eyes couldn’t conceal her disappointnt. It had been no simple task for a human to appear here, yet he couldn’t assist them.
Was it possible that destiny ordained them to remain trapped for generations?
Loong Chen sighed, having given his utmost effort.
Just as he withdrew his hand and contemplated leaving, a voice suddenly resonated within his mind, causing him to halt in his tracks.
“The system has detected nearby attributes that can be collected. Would you like to gather them?”
Loong Chen heard the system’s voice and quickly scanned his surroundings.
Before long, a luminous orb materialized next to the trident.
The orb bore the trident’s distinctive mark.
“I’ll collect it,” thought Loong Chen.
Monts later, the system’s notification chid once more.
“You have successfully collected this luminous orb. You have acquired Poseidon’s Seven Styles.”
Poseidon’s Seven Styles? What could that be?
Loong Chen stood still, lost in thought. Onlookers below the platform assud he was struggling to co to terms with reality.
“Even if you fail, it’s okay. We’re already accustod to it.”
“Indeed, it appears we may never venture into the outside world.”
The beautiful fish expressed their thoughts one by one. Elder rmaid let out a sigh and gracefully leaped to Loong Chen’s side.
“Young man, I understand you’ve done your best. It seems our fate is preordained.”
Elder rmaid refrained from speaking further, thinking Loong Chen was already burdened with guilt.
Suddenly, Loong Chen posed a question.
“Elder rmaid, are you familiar with Poseidon’s Seven Styles?”
Upon Loong Chen’s inquiry, Elder rmaid, standing beside him, suddenly quivered.
The surrounding seawater began to ripple intensely.
Inexplicably, a brilliant light flickered within her cloudy eyes.
“How did you co to know of Poseidon’s Seven Styles?”
Elder rmaid fixed a piercing gaze on Loong Chen, her tone filled with utmost seriousness.
Loong Chen pondered briefly and concocted a fabrication. “When I touched the trident earlier, a mory sohow entered my mind. It was about Poseidon’s Seven Styles.”
He continued, crafting his lie.
Surprisingly, Elder rmaid did not seem to detect any flaw in Loong Chen’s deception. Perhaps she did, but chose not to confront him openly.
She responded with a mix of excitent and doubt.
“According to our ancestral lore, Poseidon’s Seven Styles is a fragnt of Poseidon’s legacy—a renowned technique of Poseidon himself. Logically, only those who wield the trident can lay claim to Poseidon’s legacy…”
Elder rmaid spoke, her tone still marked by excitent and skepticism.
Loong Chen wore a wry smile. He couldn’t reveal that it was thanks to his system.
The mory was probably a result of his contact with the trident. Fortunately, the system had aided him. It was unlikely that anyone else could acquire it.
Under the scrutinizing gaze of Elder rmaid, Loong Chen had no choice but to shift the conversation.
“Elder rmaid, I believe I may have a thod to extract this trident.”
Loong Chen proclaid, his words grounded in fact, as he had just inspected the so-called Poseidon’s Seven Styles.
In truth, Poseidon’s Seven Styles consisted of seven combat techniques attributed to Poseidon. One of them allowed the user to manipulate the trident’s weight at will.
Consequently, amidst Elder rmaid and the hundreds of rmaids’ anxious and hopeful stares, Loong Chen once again extended his hand toward the trident and grasped it firmly.
Initially, he sensed the trident’s coldness, but this ti, it wasn’t a bone-chilling cold; it was a refreshing coolness.
It felt like a sudden cool breeze on a scorching sumr day, an imnsely refreshing sensation.
“Poseidon’s Seven Styles!”
“Arise!”
Loong Chen called out and unleashed Poseidon’s Seven Styles.
It allowed him to heighten his connection with the trident to the utmost degree.
He had the ability to manipulate the weight, length, and dinsions of the trident at his discretion.
The trident ascended from the ground, causing the entire Poseidon Temple to violently tremble, and the seawater to ripple.
A surge of energy erupted from the trident’s original position, shooting straight up into the sky.
Elder rmaid seed to have sensed sothing. She gazed out from the Poseidon Temple, and nurous beams of light emanated from her eyes.
“The barrier has vanished!”
Elder rmaid exclaid towards the heavens. Every rmaid in the Poseidon Temple heard Elder rmaid’s voice at that mont.
After a brief mont of astonishnt, they all shouted in delight.
In that instant, Loong Chen remained where he stood and closed his eyes.
This was because an incredibly vast amount of energy flowed into his body from the trident.
“Congratulations to the Host for acquiring Water extraordinary talent Level 1.”
“Detecting that the Water extraordinary talent has reached its maximum level, automatically advancing to Law of Water Level 1.”
Following the system notification, Loong Chen suddenly opened his eyes. At this mont, both of his eyes seed to have transford into an endless ocean.
“Law of Water. Does comprehending the Power of Law an I can control all the water in the world, just like this?”
Loong Chen reflected to himself. The Power of Law surpassed even extraordinary talent.
The Law of Life bestowed upon him the Immortal Body, while the Law of Water granted him complete mastery over water.
In a watery battlefield, his strength would multiply by over a hundredfold.
“Young man, you are the savior of our rmaids.”
Just as Loong Chen imrsed himself in contemplation, Elder rmaid’s voice suddenly resonated beside him.
She regarded Loong Chen with gratitude, as did the rmaid clan mbers gathered below the stage. Their eyes brimd with appreciation.
From this day forward, they were no longer imprisoned within the Poseidon Temple. They could explore the magnificent world beyond.
“rmaid Elder, you’re giving too much credit. I’ve also benefited greatly from your help.”
Loong Chen was equally thrilled. The rmaid clan was liberated, and his own strength had grown—a mutually advantageous outco.
Subsequently, Elder rmaid earnestly invited Loong Chen to partake in the rmaid clan’s family celebration.
Loong Chen readily accepted the invitation.
He carefully stowed Poseidon’s trident in his Dinsional Pocket, recognizing it as Poseidon’s weapon.
Although he remained unsure of Poseidon’s true might, it undoubtedly surpassed that of the Tyrannical Saber Devil King.
To adopt an imposing moniker, one must possess the strength to match, or else face scorn from others.
