Mythology: Spiritual Ruler

"Dong——"

"Dong——"

"Dong——"

"."

In the empty and chaotic fourth spiritual world, there was no noise, only three heartbeats that continued to come from the light cocoon, never stopping.

They maintain the state of being born but not yet born, and their connection with the fourth layer interface is getting closer and closer.

Standing here, Ryan stared at the black crystal suspended in mid-air, feeling the power to end all things.

[Death], but it is not pure, it is caused by the world of Khaos itself. After all, even today, no god has ever truly died.

After all, Cronus's death and rebirth did not erase his immortal essence, and Ryan could not do this either. Therefore, the [death] power that has increased due to this has stopped at the peak of powerful divine power, and as expected, it has no possibility of going further.

So even though there are still some worries, Ryan has no other choice.

"I don't know if it can fulfill my expectations. When I opened up the spiritual world, I wasn't completely sure either."

"Let's give it a try. Whether it succeeds or not depends on luck."

Taking a deep breath, Ryan finally made up his mind. No matter whether you can succeed or not, you have to give it a try to find out.

The matter of the silver human soul reminded him once again. Although the soul originated from him, it doesn't mean that it won't be tampered with when it comes back.

So he needs something to help him solve these problems better.

Stretching out his right hand and making a slight move, the next moment, at the central axis of the spiritual world, on the top of Mount Sinaia, the ancient and mysterious deep well quietly disappeared.

Silently, the half body of the once [Life] Aquarius, the artifact [Well of Origin] that could bestow souls on all things, appeared in front of Ryan, which was also the center of the fourth spiritual world.

Within the mouth of the well, wisps of power floated out and dispersed into the surrounding environment. Feeling the breath of [spiritual life], three cocoons of light swayed slightly around Ryan.

Today's [Well of Origin] has become more powerful. In other words, if it had not been divided into two, as the creatures in the world began to multiply, the [Vase of Life] could have become another [Creation of Chaos]. World Artifact].

In this case, even half of its well water would be enough to have an extraordinary effect on the gods.

"Don't worry, you will be born soon."

Smiling slightly and passing on the comforting thoughts, the three light cocoons immediately returned to calm. Ryan looked at the wall of the well that looked like stone but not stone, and looked like jade but not jade. He hesitated for a while, but in the end he stretched out his finger.

So the next moment, the black crystal suspended in the air shattered and turned into black mist.

Without the form of 'godhead', the origin of death becomes more active. The black mist jumped and swirled, but finally fell away under Ryan's control, blending with the well water in the artifact below.

Under Ryan's nervous gaze, [Life] and [Death] intersected at this moment. They were mixed together at first, but after losing the control of the spiritual world power, they separated instantly.

There is no sign of fusion between the two. They are distinct and even confront each other, consuming each other. Out of some instinct, both of them knew that if they could destroy the other, they would become stronger.

But Ryan knew that this was just an illusion.

"As expected."

The changes in front of him were not beyond Ryan's expectation. In other worlds, he didn't know whether life and death could be naturally compatible, but it certainly couldn't be the case in Chaos.

As for them wanting to destroy each other, that is as it should be. After all, the instinct of the source force itself is more primitive than the will of the world. It is difficult for them to judge the quality of something in the long term.

Indeed, if [Death] is completely eliminated, the proportion of [Life] in the world will increase accordingly, but when viewed over time, this is not a good thing.

After all, without 'death', the world's capacity for 'life' will inevitably reach its upper limit soon. At that time, [life] will become a pool of stagnant water, and there will no longer be any change or birth.

Fortunately, Ryan was prepared for this.

With a thought in his mind, two inexplicable auras from different sources were slowly born in the void. Under the guidance of his thoughts, they moved closer to the mouth of the well.

Two breaths, one comes from the 'past' and was born from the 'death' of Cronus, symbolizing the transformation of the former god king from 'life' to 'death'; the other comes from the 'future' and was born from the three goddesses , symbolizing the change of the three goddesses of time from 'death' to 'life' due to changes in fate.

This was a decision made early on, and Ryan rarely did anything that didn't make sense. The reason why he knew that he could not understand the mystery of the nature of immortality now, but he still used the fourth spiritual world as the placenta to give birth to a new god, and he also put a lot of effort into it, just for the scene before him.

After all, the birth of a god itself has special significance. This is even more true for a god whose destiny has been cut off.

And in addition, [Spring], [Summer] and [Autumn] themselves also have a complete 'cyclical' meaning, which is why Ryan believes that the three goddesses of time are the best choice. If Themis didn't want to, he could be conceived by other gods, but none of them would be as suitable as them.

So the next moment, when two mysterious auras overlapped, rotated, and fell into the [Well of Origin] together, a strange change began to occur.

【Life】 and 【Death】 began to blend, and a new and more complete "symbol" began to be born. It is a cycle, an exchange, from birth to destruction, and also a new life after destruction.

At this moment, the symbol of "the origin of all things", which should have belonged to the complete [Life Aquarius], completely collapsed, because its other half became part of the new symbol, which is "recurring", and Ryan called it "reincarnation".

Faintly, when the first ray of new power was born, the source sea outside also began to boil. Invisible fluctuations came from the spiritual world, and Chaos's instinct seemed to realize that something crucial was about to be born.

He was delighted and prepared to welcome it, but it did not last long. At a certain moment, this change suddenly stopped out of thin air.

"Hmm?"

"No!"

In front of the [Well of Origin], Ryan's face changed slightly. In front of him, there was a problem between [Life] and [Death], which were constantly transforming into [Reincarnation].

And this time, he might find it difficult to solve the problem.

"Is the gap still too big? Sure enough, it still doesn't work."

Whispering to himself, Ryan realized the problem, which was also what he worried about before. This is the gap in volume and quality, and he can't make up for it now.

Now the complete [Life] is enough to be equal to the great divine power, even if it is only half, it is far stronger than [Death]. He can clearly find that life and death are merging, but the latter is obviously a little weak.

If it continues, when the power of [Death] is exhausted, this transformation will be declared a failure.

Of course, it is not accurate to say that it has failed. [Reincarnation] will still be born, but the new [Well of Origin] may still be stuck at the threshold of [Artifact of Creation] because its foundation is unbalanced.

The unbalanced [Reincarnation] is naturally incomplete.

"Forget it, stop the loss in time. The complete 'Reincarnation' has not been built, and it's not bad to build a small one."

Shaking his head slightly, Ryan has no solution at the moment. The power of [Death] is insufficient, which is determined by Chaos's innate nature. So he stepped forward and prepared to terminate this transformation with the power of the Lord of the Realm.

Since the complete "reincarnation" cannot be born, there is no need for the incomplete one to absorb all the [death]. It only needs to -

"——What is this?"

When Ryan's right hand touched the [Well of Origin], he was about to take action, but he unexpectedly discovered that the newly born incomplete [reincarnation] suddenly expressed a desire for him.

There seemed to be something on Ryan's body that he didn't even notice, attracting it.

Without stopping, Ryan chose to wait and see. So the next moment, a wonderful, extremely pure breath slowly condensed from his body.

It hovered in the air for a while, but finally followed the connection in the dark and drifted towards the nearly exhausted black mist in the [Well of Origin]. And when it approached the wellhead, the [death] that was originally nearly exhausted expanded almost instantly.

In just a few seconds, the black mist became no less inferior to [life], and even its essence was improved by half a level.

Although it has not yet reached the level of "directly killing the gods", with the blessing of this wonderful power, it has already crossed the halfway point.

Intuition tells Ryan that if a god actively seeks death at this time, what will happen, even he is not sure.

"But how could it be, is it because I died once before coming to this world?"

". No, this breath is obviously not my "death"!"

The shocking change happened in front of him, and Ryan thought a lot in an instant. He recalled the past and looked at everything that happened in front of him. Many things that were once difficult to understand were finally figured out by him.

His face turned cold, but then returned to normal. He understood a lot of things, but no matter what, the result is always good, and at the moment, opening up reincarnation is the key.

So Ryan no longer hesitated, and the power of the seven-layer spiritual world was mobilized by him. Under the great power of the Lord of the World, the newborn [Reincarnation] was embedded into the root of the fourth layer interface by him, and almost instantly, the ancient well in front of him was magnified tens of millions of times, and the entire fourth layer of the spiritual world changed its appearance.

Chaos and nothingness were pacified, and spiritual matter was laid out under his feet. Around the ancient well, palaces rose from the ground, and streams of light flew out from the Sinai Mountain. They were several artifacts that had already been conceived.

Some of them fell into different palaces, some flew into the gestating light cocoons, and some fell into the ancient well, waiting for further transformation.

Soon, when the changes came to an end, a wonderful change took the fourth layer of the spiritual world as the center and spread to the entire seven-layer interface. Time and space are more stable, order is stronger, and of course, the most important thing is that its endogenous cycle is enhanced.

There are seven layers in the spiritual world, and the fourth layer is the middle, and [reincarnation] just symbolizes opposition and cycle. Ryan could clearly feel that at this moment, the stability of the internal circulation and structure of the entire spiritual world directly skyrocketed by more than ten times, and with the ancient well in front of him transforming the final power of [life] and [death], the benefits brought by this internal circulation became more and more obvious.

Even vaguely, the vibration of the external source sea also started again from the end, and it became more and more intense. Even though [Reincarnation] has not yet been fully formed, Chaos himself has also produced a vague response outside the spirit world.

Not the part of the present world, but the true and complete will of Chaos. Last time, He was "angry" because of the birth of the spirit world, but this time, He felt "joyful".

Of course, the world has no emotions. The so-called anger and joy are only understood from a human perspective. So when He was "angry", He only asked the gods to come to stop Him. Now that He is "joyful", He has not given any preference.

However, in the spiritual world, feeling the echo of the world, Ryan's reaction was a little indifferent.

"Joy? Haha, it's ridiculous."

Recalling the past, in fact, about his past, about how he became the god of Chaos from an outside soul, about why he was so weak, although Ryan gave his own explanation, he actually found that there were many places that did not make sense, and even contradicted himself.

For example, in the original trajectory, Gaia was the first life in the world, so the [Life Aquarius] was born with him. But now, he is the first life, so why didn't even half of the spiritual life fall on him, but still came to the side of the Earth Mother?

For example, why [Memory] and [Wisdom] automatically return to the embrace of the spiritual master at the moment of birth, but some do not, like [Lies], [Hate], and even [Lust].

Not only that, his absorption of it was blocked to a certain extent, so that the corresponding gods were still born, as if they were not affected at all.

Also, as early as the day when the twelve Titans were born, Ryan once lamented that this Chaos world was very similar to his memory, except that the world was much larger, and the order of the birth of the gods had not changed much.

But everything has a reason. For a world, there is no change that happens out of thin air. The world has become bigger. Is it simply a distortion of later myths, or is it because Chaos obtained the rules of another complete world from a life that came unexpectedly?

In the past, for these doubts, Ryan could only understand that he did not understand the essence of spirituality enough, and his understanding of the roots of the world was not clear enough, but with the "death" that did not come from him, everything was answered.

The problem was never with him, but with the world itself. As early as the beginning of all things, when Ryan had just come to this world and had not had time to wake up again as a god, He was actually driven by instinct and tried to kill and devour this outsider directly.

There is no good or evil in the world. He just sensed that this soul is very valuable, but it is not under his control. So at the first time, the power of the world fell on Ryan, intending to solve this trouble once and for all.

But unfortunately, when he was halfway through, he found that Ryan was not dead yet, and another god had died first.

One of the five original gods, the lord of love and desire, the source of all emotions in the world, fell in the embryo. Ryan once thought that he died again at the moment of birth, but in fact, he had never "lived" at all.

From then on, Chaos instinctively knew that killing the master of spirituality was equivalent to killing the spirituality of the world itself. But the price was that a god who had not yet been born died silently. He became the first and only god who really died since Chaos was born.

Of course, because he was not born yet, this kind of "death" was not complete.

The world therefore gave up killing Ryan, and he tolerated this existence, but the spiritual lord who should have been born great still only had the weakest divine power. The power held by the dead god also changed, and it did not return to the hands of the spiritual master.

The power of emotions was thus shattered and scattered in all corners of the world until today.

"Sure enough, everything is like this - how you get it, you will lose it."

"And what should belong to me, in the end, all came back one by one."

The origin of Kronos's time and space, half of Gaia's [Life Aquarius], and even all the spiritual powers drawn from Chaos, are all like this.

They should have belonged to him, and if the world doesn't give them, then he will take them back with his own hands.

As for those who can't come back, the [death] they bring makes [reincarnation] complete, and it also makes their masters in another way.

After figuring out the cause and effect, Ryan's doubts that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time were finally answered. He looked at the center of the fourth spiritual world, the clear and deep two-color liquid intertwined, and the slowly rotating ancient well.

The past is over, at least now, everything is fine.

So Ryan mobilized his authority and engraved its name on the new artifact.

"The old name is no longer suitable for you. [Well of Origin] symbolizes life, but now, you are the cycle of life and death."

"In this case, [Well of Samsara] is your new name."

What the Lord of the Realm said is the law. When Ryan's voice fell, the two original spiritual characters were engraved on the wall of the well. After a while, with the last tremor, when all the "life" and "death" were transformed, the symbol of "reincarnation" was completely complete.

In the air, three light cocoons began to vibrate. When reincarnation was born, the spirit world also released the restrictions on their birth.

After a crisp sound, three gods were born in this world one after another. However, unlike the original mythology, they are no longer simply gods symbolizing the four seasons.

The god of spring and rebirth, Eunomia, is responsible for arranging the future of the reincarnation of all spirits and determining the starting point of their new life.

Xia and the god of blessing, Di Ke, are responsible for arranging the talents of all living things in the future according to their achievements in their lifetime and determining the endowments of their new lives.

Erine, the God of Autumn and the End, is responsible for washing away all the things in the lives of mortals, allowing their power to return to the spirit world and reincarnate.

The birth of the three new gods did not cause any divine births, not only because they were born in the spirit world, but also because from the next era onwards, there would be no more announcements of the birth of gods. The world's demand for gods has been met, which has been foreshadowed since the moment the son of the God King became a demigod.

So just like that, the three goddesses opened their eyes and saw their creator.

"Father God."

Unlike Hypnos, the three goddesses were not infected by the power of chaos, and their hearts and mouths were consistent. They respectfully saluted the master of the spirit world and thanked him for giving them a new life.

"Very good."

With a satisfied smile, Ryan turned around and looked at the brand new interface.

"From today on, the Well of Samsara will be managed by you, and this interface will become your new residence."

"This is the fourth spiritual world, the [World of All Spirits], or the [World of Samsara]. You are here to be responsible for the death and rebirth of all spirits."

"Yes."

They saluted in unison. Although the three goddesses in front of Ryan were still weak, in the future, they were destined to get rid of their original mythological images and become important existences in the world.

Not only because of the new priesthood, but also because it is the instinct of mortals to love life and fear death. Whether willing or not, any life that will die will spontaneously respect the life that determines all this.

And in the next era, this will also bring them rich rewards.

"Almost, the turn of the era is over."

Finally, everything was done, and Ryan was a little tired. He planned to have a good rest.

In the outside world, at this moment, the debate about the new king also came to an end. He saw it clearly from another perspective, and even secretly fueled it. So with the advent of the new era, another special power was collected by him and added to the new [Reincarnation].

Right in front of Ryan, the first acquired "greatness" since the creation of the world was born.

Ahem, this is why this chapter is two-in-one, mainly to prevent people from skipping the order and not seeing the second chapter, and then saying that I didn't write it clearly. The author will still learn from experience, so he must write the cause and effect in one chapter.
