to be honest.
The World Tree has no problem absorbing anything. The essence of the structure of all things is divine power. For the World Tree, no matter what kind of divine power it is, it can be absorbed perfectly. There is absolutely no problem with this. This is the most special thing about the World Tree.
This is why it is so difficult to hatch the world tree. Hades found another way and relied on the special characteristics of the magic star to hatch the world seed. Otherwise, how can he hatch the world seed in a normal way?
I'm afraid that the divine resources needed would be enough, even if it were just half of the resources of the mythological world. This is the fundamental reason. There is no other way. The hatching of the world seed requires the power of the world, and the fastest growing thing is also the power of the world.
As for the divine power, it can be used, but! The effect of this thing is probably just that.
As for why the effect of absorbing the Star Ruins was so good this time? It actually increased the World Tree by nearly 30% in one go? The core point is this.
The world seed and the world tree are different. The hatching of the world seed is like a baby, which can only absorb nutrients from breast milk. If you insist on feeding it normal meals, it is hard to say whether it can eat it or not. Can it absorb it well?
The absorption of the World Tree is like an adult eating. The nutritious world power will of course have the best effect, but the divine power with poor nutrition will also be no problem.
As for the second point, the Star Ruins have existed for so many years, and the accumulated remains of divine objects are so numerous that the quantitative change has led to a qualitative change.
Chapter 57 Return to the Earthly World, Goodbye Iapetus
How long has the Star Ruins existed? How many remains of divine objects are there inside? In fact, no god knows. Even if the Star God is responsible for guarding this place and throwing everything in the Star Ruins, how can you ask them to explain the situation of the Star Ruins?
Sorry, there is basically no hope. After all, everything in the Star Ruins has basically no meaning of existence for any god. They are really useless. What do you think they are researching?
As time went by, everything gradually returned to calm. The World Tree grew by 30%, and the Underworld also grew by 30%. Divine power began to be born from within. This was a good start.
Followed by.
Endless divine power began to flow into Hades' body. The endless divine power seemed to wash away Hades completely. As the divine power washed away Hades, his control over all the laws began to enter a deeper level.
To be precise, the feedback from the World Tree is not divine power, it is just called that. A more accurate name should be called the power of the world, but! It is not quite the same as the real power of the world, which is a special point.
This kind of world power is similar to the power of faith. The greatest specialness of these two kinds of divine power is not that they simply bring you improvement, but that they are similar to merits in the ancient world, which can increase your speed of absorbing divine power and improve your speed of understanding the laws.
In short, this is a panacea-like divine power, which is extremely special. And every time the world tree is upgraded, it will bring feedback to Hades, bring improvement, and bring huge world power, thereby helping Hades to comprehend and master the laws at a deeper level.
For Hades, it took nearly ten thousand years for the feedback from the World Tree to be perfectly mastered by him.
"The initial danger, indeed, brought enough benefits." A smile appeared on the corner of Hades's mouth, and he whispered softly; "The danger of the World Seed hatching brought about the improvement of the World Tree."
Hades suppressed his joy and calmed his heart again. No matter what, he had to be calm enough, otherwise, if any accident occurred, it would be an accident.
Hades left the astral realm again and headed straight for the terrestrial realm. He had already retrieved two world chains. Next, the most important thing was to retrieve the remaining three world chains.
"Golden Apple, World Chain..." Hades whispered quietly, "Compared to the original plan, everything we have now is even more amazing. The road to retrieving the origin will be much easier."
That's right.
Everything Hades does now has only one real purpose, which is to work hard to get back his own origin. Compared to the origin, everything else is really meaningless to him.
Although I now have the God's Elegy obtained from Zeus, theoretically speaking, the path to retrieving the origin has become easier and simpler.
But the problem is that there is only one bottle of God's Lament. If this good thing can be kept and used in the future, then! This is the most important improvement, and that is the fundamental core.
Some divine objects, if they could be preserved, would bring the greatest and most astonishing gains and improvements in the future, and the God's Elegy obviously falls into this category.
Hades was thinking about everything carefully. As time went by, he had returned to the earth again.
Compared with the last time he returned to the earth, this time was completely different. There were not so many Titans waiting for him in the earth now. This matter had a lot to do with Zeus.
Ever since Zeus liberated his three sisters and his brother Poseidon, it is no exaggeration to say that the entire Titan system was completely in chaos. It was really chaos.
Naturally, there are not so many Titans waiting here for Hades. Everyone is very busy now. Besides, to a certain extent, isn’t Hades now sealed in the barrier seal of heaven, earth and man?
only……
This is just an idea. Although there are not as many Titans waiting here as before, there is a more terrifying Titan who is quietly waiting for Hades' return.
One of the twelve Titan gods: Iapetus, the god of dimensions.
Hades stood quietly in front of Iapetus. As for how Iapetus found him, it was not important. As I said before, the power of the invisibility cloth was amazing, but before it was cast into an invisibility helmet.
If you really want to find yourself, you can definitely find yourself. This is not a strange thing. Want to just hide your figure with an invisible cloth? This is simply impossible.
Hades knew this very well, and was not surprised at all that Iapetus found him.
only!
I should be in a state of being sealed by the barrier set up by Koos, why did Iapetus find this place? In fact, this is the most important thing.
"Hades." Iapetus said calmly, "Don't be surprised. Although the barrier and seal set by Koos are amazing enough, they can't completely seal you. I can sense that special dimensional divine power."
Iapetus did not need to think or consider more. With just a little perception, he could sense what kind of special divine power it was. Through the divine power of the dimension, Hades had escaped from the blockade of the barrier.
This is not a strange thing. In Iapetus's opinion, based on Hades' ability, the extent to which he can do it is really not strange at all. It can even be called extremely normal and reasonable.
Hades!
As His Majesty's eldest son, Iapetus saw His Majesty's shadow in Hades. Could it be that such an offspring, such a god, would be trapped by Coeus's mere sealing barrier?
Stop kidding, no matter from which angle you look at it, this is simply impossible. That is why, after finding the trace of Hades, Iapetus quietly waited here for Hades' return from the astral realm.
Chapter 58: The Battle Begins, the Two Gods’ Perfect Control of the Laws
At the beginning, Iapetus did not think that Hades would be sealed, even though the seal that sealed Hades was set by Coeus, who was known as the prophet, but the same thing still applies: there is absolutely no possibility.
Hades said quietly, "Iapetus, thank you for your trust in me."
"No need." Iapetus said calmly: "Hades, it ends here. Your life was taken away by me here. This farce should end here."
Iapetus' voice was calm, his eyes filled with endless indifference. He was not joking. After the last test, what was supposed to end was finally going to end.
"Indeed." Hades also said silently: "What should end will end. So far, Iapetus, this Titan War will end with the death of you, the twelve Titan gods."
"Hehehe~~~"
Iapetus chuckled and said, "What confidence!"
"Confidence." Hades continued, "It's a matter of course. If you don't even have this kind of confidence, how can you take a step further and transcend the shackles of fate?"
"Overcoming the shackles of fate?" Iapetus looked at Hades quietly, as if he had also fallen into silence. After a long while, he slowly said, "Yes! For any god, they are bound by fate, but you are definitely not the one who transcends the shackles of fate."
"Why?" Hades asked quietly.
Iapetus replied: "Your Majesty has transcended the constraints of fate, and you, Hades, no matter how outstanding you are, only the shadow of your Majesty can be seen in you, which proves everything."
Hades did not continue to answer. It was meaningless to continue. The divine power around him was surging, the laws were surging, darkness, death, arrogance, madness...
Countless laws gathered into sharp blades and headed straight for Iapetus. The laws contained in each blade had been exerted to the extreme.
"What an outstanding control of the laws!" Iapetus said with emotion: "You are able to exert every complicated law to such an extent, relying on your own efforts to transcend the constraints of the origin. Hades, you are really too outstanding!"
Although Iapetus spoke words of praise, he was ruthless and showed no mercy at all. He was even more ruthless than before.
As he raised his hand, dimensional cracks began to spread out, gradually tearing everything apart, gradually tearing everything apart and devouring it all. It all happened too fast, and his mastery of dimensional laws had reached a level that could not be described in words.
This is not a joke. For each of the twelve Titan gods, in addition to the endless laws contained in themselves since their birth, their mastery of their own laws has reached an astonishing level that many gods cannot even imagine.
This is the terrifying part about the twelve Titan gods. Aren't they born noble? It is undeniable that among the gods, bloodline theory is very important, but it definitely does not mean that if you have noble blood, you are invincible.
The moment you are surpassed, the other party will not let you go just because of your noble blood. On the contrary, the other party will kill you mercilessly without any mercy.
Because of this, the twelve Titan gods have been able to reach their current status by relying on their own powerful strength, rather than any status brought by noble status and bloodline.
and!
As the battle between the two gods began, their control over the laws was truly revealed, whether it was Hades' control over all of his own laws, or Iapetus' perfect control over the laws of the dimension.
It can be said that as the battle continued, the two gods' control over the laws really began to gradually show up. Their control over the laws and their use of divine power were truly worthy of praise.
In fact, there were many gods watching this battle, including the twelve Titans including Kronos, or the new generation of gods headed by Poseidon and Zeus.
This war was not just a battle between Hades and Iapetus, but also represented the first real collision between the Titans and the New Gods.
Iapetus' victory would mean that the new gods were nothing but a joke to the Titans. The so-called bondage of fate had already been defeated by the supreme Titan King.
Hades' victory represents the victory of the new gods. When the new gods win, the impact on the entire mythological world is enormous.
to be honest.
In the current mythological world, is it true that there are no gods who want to resist Kronos' rule? Not really! On the contrary, there are a large number of gods who want to resist Kronos' rule.
However, they simply did not have enough power, and they could not see any hope, because Kronos, the supreme Titan King was too strong, so strong that any god could only feel his invincibility and terrifying power.
Under such circumstances, they naturally did not dare to start a war, and for them, even the Twelve Titans were no match for them.
If!
If Hades can defeat Iapetus and break the invincible veil of the twelve Titans, then it is hard to say what will happen next. The entire mythological world will be in complete chaos.
Because of this, the two gods are very clear that this war is not just a life-and-death battle, but also represents the beginning of everything that may happen next. Will the new god have the opportunity to achieve the final victory, or will everything come to an end?
after all.
The victory or defeat will be decided in this war, and what will be the outcome will also be determined in this war.
This is the real core of this war, and also the real reason for this war. Neither Hades nor Iapetus can retreat even a single step. They can only continue to move forward and quietly end this war.
And with the two gods' perfect control over the law, the curtain of this war was opened, which seemed to prove how terrible this war would be. This would definitely not be a one-sided crushing battle.
Chapter 59: Gift from the Mother Goddess: The Guardian Planet of the Twelve Titan Gods!!!
dark.
death.
confusion.
……
Countless laws, infinite divine power were exerted from Hades' palm, and everything in front of him was gradually swallowed up. As the large amount of divine power began to fall, sharp blades formed by the convergence of laws pierced through again.
If we say that Hades is no weaker than any other god simply by relying on his mastery of the laws and control of divine power, but if we say that they are competing in the mastery of skills.
Hades could only say that he was a complete layman and he was not good at skills. Between skills and strength, for him, he was better at pure strength. Strength could defeat skill, no matter how powerful his opponent was, no matter how amazing his opponent was.
By absolute law.
