Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

The world has a multi-level structure, and this is often a universal norm. In most myths, the world is divided into two, with an interface symbolizing the yang side and an interface symbolizing the yin side.

This subdivision of the world will occur even further as the myth continues. Just like the thirty-three days in the East and the heaven and hell in the West, these seem to reflect a problem: just as the social structure becomes more complex with the development of human beings, the world should also be the same. The multi-level structure contributes to the growth of its internal circulation, as well as the stability of the world itself.

So what Ryan did before was actually something similar. He tried to create a circle of [Inner Realm] at the center of the fifth spiritual world. Their composition does not involve faith, but is simply composed of elements: while [Seven Hills of Heaven] is composed of emotions, beliefs and some elemental energy. The interface built together is the [Outer World], nested on the periphery of the fifth spiritual world.

One mile and one away, a three-dimensional ring anchors the chaotic time and space, allowing this layer of interface to support life activities - even extraordinary lives like the Celestial Clan.

However, although all this was well conceived, it failed at the beginning. Ryan expected that there should be six [Inner Realms], [Earth], [Water], [Wind] and [Fire] arranged in four directions, classifying most of the elemental powers in the world. Those that are difficult to divide can be divided into two pure energy interfaces [positive energy] and [negative energy] according to their tendencies, ranking in the upper and lower directions.

Six three-dimensional rhombuses wrap around the core of the fifth spiritual world, supporting the time and space of the interface to correspond to the future outer world. In the future, the realm of belief in gods and illusory stars will be mixed in, forming a complete fifth level of spiritual world.

However, the idea was good, but when it came to practice, Ryan found that this was completely unworkable, not only because the spiritual world's control over the fire element was not that complete, but also because the underlying logic of the world was like this.

Just as there is no balance between life and death, there are also highs and lows between earth, water, wind and fire. A cycle with obvious gaps cannot be constructed unless Ryan can find a way to convert the four elements into each other and maintain balance, just like the exchange of life and death.

This is not completely impossible. Theoretically, if he changes the location of the four elemental planes and places them in the fourth spiritual world, he can maintain stability with the help of the complete circulation power of the [Well of Reincarnation]. But the reason why Ryan wanted to establish the elemental plane was to perfect the fifth spiritual world, so how could he make such a choice.

"In comparison, the conversion between positive and negative is indeed easier to balance. Even relying solely on the power of circulation naturally emitted by the [Well of Samsara] and the interface order blessed by the [Creation Code] should be enough to complete this step .”

After pondering for a while, Ryan finally gave up the plan of getting it right in one step. It seems that if you want to sort out the order of the last two levels of the spiritual world, you still need to complete it bit by bit.

With a finger, the black light in Ryan's palm spread and fell below him, which was part of the manifestation of the negative energy in the world. At the same time, the negative energy originally present in the spiritual world also gathered together, and together with it began to evolve a small interface composed purely of energy.

The corresponding positive energy came to "above" Ryan. But compared to the ones below, it seems very rare.

This is not only because the spiritual world itself is not deeply involved in positive energy, but also because in the world of Chaos, although life is strong and death is weak, on the whole, the negatives are greater than the positives, even the original gods. The numbers clearly show this: there are two primitive gods of night and darkness in this world, but day and light are only born with powerful divine power. Even the goddess of day was conceived by the former's body. The gap between the two is obvious.

Although this innate gap has been partially closed with the development of the world, it still exists. So when the positive and negative energy completed the convergence, it only stabilized for a short while, and the light group emitting positive energy began to shake slightly. It seemed that it was overwhelmed and could not exist in opposition to the negative energy interface 'below' it.

But after all, this is inside the spirit world. Looking at the crumbling prototype of the positive energy interface, Ryan affected part of the power of reincarnation and the power of the interface as before. And just as he expected, after a few sharp flashes, under the faint influence of the prototype of Paradise Mountain in the distance, this new energy interface finally stabilized.

However, depending on the situation, Ryan will need to stay here for a few more years. Until the forces of both parties are brought closer under the influence of circulation, he can completely let them run on their own.

"Phew - that's really troublesome."

He took a long breath, but feeling a more complete symbol of spirituality, Ryan still felt that it was all valuable. The spiritual world is the embodiment of his power. The scope of the spiritual world and the overall strength are the manifestations of the expansion of spiritual symbols in the world. In his estimation, even if there are no other benefits, just the improvement of the remaining few layers of interface itself, each layer is enough to bring him a symbolic increase that can be equivalent to the first level.

The same applies to other interfaces. If the Lord of the Nine Hells can find a lord with enough 'potential' for each level of the Nine Hells, improve the mechanism of the natural birth of devils, and even allow the main forces between different levels of hell to cooperate, then his power will also be It can follow the rise and get rid of the current state of great bottom. However, the foundation and size of hell are far inferior to the spiritual world, so the rise will not be as high as Ryan's.

After finishing the things at hand, I finally relaxed. Although maintaining the stability of the positive and negative energy interface requires him to stay here, it is not something that consumes too much energy. Ryan finally has time to pay attention to what just happened.

Of course, it was impossible for him not to pay attention to everything that happened in the Earth Mother's orchard, but Ryan didn't actually pay much attention to the nymph named Mo.

As the maid of the Earth Mother and the caretaker of the Golden Apple Orchard, her only role is to act as a tool to avoid Gaia's arrangements in the Golden Apple Orchard. Other than that, the value of her existence is to serve as a teaching material.

After all, if the opponent can stab Gaia in the back, he can betray others. Although Ryan is not very afraid of betrayal by his men, he is more interested in the original consciousness of the golden apple tree than keeping such a guy by his side.

Moanda herself didn't notice it, and even thought that her reincarnation was like this. But in fact, since she had 'seen' all the processes of the golden apple tree since its birth, why didn't that consciousness share her memory, but it remained the same? Confused and confused? Everything is not without reason, because this interaction on the memory level is unilaterally blocked.

If the memory interaction occurs normally, the nascent consciousness will be infected by Moanda's complex memory and become an existence similar to the other party but somewhat different. This is not what Ryan wants to see. So he unilaterally stopped all this, just letting the other party's mind wake up, and then letting her stay quietly in the body of the golden apple tree, sharing everything Mo Anda saw and sensed, but without being influenced by the other party's thoughts. interference.

In this case, what she can learn from Moanda's textbook is her own business. Even strictly speaking, the other party is the original consciousness of the golden apple tree, just like a natural god. Ryan helped the other person awaken to wisdom and continue the growth interrupted by Gaia. Although this could be done, it was still beyond his power to do anything to her directly.

"But speaking of it, I thought that elf would go to Zeus, and even end up on my head... colliding with Erebus, which was really a surprise."

Shaking his head, Ryan was only slightly surprised, but then he didn't care. The current world instinctively hopes for the existence of more intelligent life, so it is possible that it exerts some subtle influence.

After all, the original destiny trajectory is destined, so the sense of existence in this world seems to be quite rigid. However, when facing places other than the original destiny, such as the underground world, he can still show a little tendency.

Of course, that's still just a little. The original god still has the possibility of choosing to be personified, but the world itself has no choice at all. Unless the world is destroyed, and then a forbidden life like the [Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood] is born.

"Besides, there is still this 'ransom'... just let her stay there."

After taking a look at the newly formed negative energy interface, Ryan chose to go with the flow and acquiesced in this. Anyway, what the other party is doing is exactly what Ryan wants.

To create a population of life that can thrive in the underground world, Moanda is indeed a good fit. For this underground world that has just appeared, the surface of the spiritual world has not yet had time to cover it. If you want life to exist there, someone really needs to work hard.

······

This world, Olympus.

Underground matters are still in His Majesty's blind spot. After all, he has not yet completely ruled the earth.

When the thunder flashed across the sky, he hurriedly returned to the sacred mountain. It was not until he returned to this place where the shackles of the world were no longer present that the divine power permeating his body allowed Zeus to regain some confidence.

Artemis's affairs could only be like this for the time being. It wouldn't be too late until he completed part of the ceremony. Now, he needed to consider another thing.

Apollo, his eldest son, he needs the other person to grow up as quickly as possible and become the first real helper beside him who can be deployed at will. But if he wants to do all this perfectly, the God-King also needs a 'good helper'.

"Hera, I don't know if she is still on the sacred mountain. I probably have to find her... huh?"

Just when he arrived in front of the palace, Zeus was about to summon the God of the West Wind to ask about the situation. However, he unexpectedly found that the God of West Wind was waiting here with Hera with a look of helplessness.

In fact, he was already prepared for Hera to ignore his orders and leave angrily to cause trouble for Leto, but now it seems that his queen still knows how to take the overall situation into consideration.

Of course, it is also possible that the situation is irreversible. After all, Apollo has been born, and no matter what she does, it has no meaning.

"Hera, my beloved, why did you remember this today?"

His thoughts were spinning, but his face seemed to know nothing. Zeus just waved his hand.

Seeing this obvious sign, Zeferos hurriedly turned into the wind and left, leaving this place to the God King and his wife.

"Why pretend to be confused, Zeus, I am more comfortable with the divine power of [reproduction] than you are. Even if they are not my descendants, it doesn't mean that I don't know about their births."

Sneered, but Hera finally waited for Zeferos to leave before speaking. She looked at the God King in front of her, and her mood that had calmed down became bad again.

If shamelessness was classified into a level, Hera felt that Zeus should be the most powerful primitive god in the world, even comparable to the world.

"...Since you know everything, I won't hide it from you. Hera, as you know, Leto gave birth to a child for me, but all this is irreversible. The eldest son of the God King is no better than Other gods are noble, and they can’t inherit anything from me, so you don’t have to be angry about it at all.”

As if he didn't hear Hera's sarcasm, Zeus smiled and held Hera's hand regardless of her objections.

"Leto is far from being compared to you. You are the most noble woman in the world. I have been willing to share my authority with you before, and even not long after, I will once again declare that you are higher than the gods and equal to me. Equal status, this is a privilege that only belongs to you."

"What did you say?"

Somewhat unexpectedly, her struggling hands stopped moving. Hera thought that Zeus would say something nice again, but what she didn't expect was that the other party would actually make such a promise.

"Yes, actually this is what I have planned for a long time."

"As I said, there is no distinction between the status of the gods in the Divine Court. Even the sons of the God King are like this. Everyone is divided into levels according to their own power according to the original rules, but this is wrong. It shouldn't be Gods have power and status, and gods who should be granted status by the God-King will also have power equal to their status. This is the true embodiment of rights."

His expression was solemn. At least at this moment, Zeus's words came from his sincerity.

"I will establish twelve main gods who are higher than the gods to rule the world with me. And you are the only one who is equal to me."

"...So, you are trying to persuade me to settle the matter in this way? It seems that you really care about Leto."

He said sarcastically again, but now, Hera was no longer so angry. Zeus was willing to share power with her, and now he was willing to have equal status with her. Although she knew that nominal equality did not mean true equality, it still made her feel the other person's intentions.

And the most important thing is that Leto is not a mortal, or even a regional god. For these two, the Queen of Heaven can really take revenge. But as a true god, the other party is not dead, and no matter what she does, she will eventually die. It has nothing to do with the overall situation.

However, in order to prevent the other party from committing another crime next time, Hera still did not intend to let go easily. She was about to recount the other party's previous 'great achievements', but the next moment, Zeus's words made her think that she had heard wrong.

"No, I'm not asking you to settle the matter. On the contrary, you can send your men to attack Leto and the child in a few years."

Looking at Hera's surprised expression with a calm expression, Zeus said calmly:

"But the attack is only temporary... After that, I want you to let the attacker go to Delphi. If it hurts my heir, then it will be killed by him in front of the temple of the gods. But no matter what, You're angry, aren't you?"

Somewhat speechless, Hera did not expect Zeus to make such a decision. Although she hated Leto before, at this moment, she actually felt sad for him for a moment.

Wrong choices bring wrong consequences, this is the sad thing about the goddess of conservation. But it was only a moment in the end, and the queen soon came to her senses.

What other people do is their business and has nothing to do with her. What's more, people who destroy other people's marriages deserve this fate.

"This is what you said, Zeus, so don't regret it later."

Pulling her hand out, Hera snorted, turned and left. However, it can be seen from her footsteps that she is much happier than when she arrived.

"Of course, how can she compare with you, Hera, you are the queen, my only one."

Behind her, watching the queen's leaving figure, Zeus stood for a while longer. After a while, Hera's figure had disappeared, and he returned to his palace.

Sitting on his bed, Zeus stretched out his hand and took out the scepter of the God King. This artifact inlaid with three gems is still so weak, which seems to prove the weak authority of the third generation of God King.

Compared to his own royal power, the God King really didn't care about Leto that much. In other words, the relationship between him and Leto didn't even stem from heartache, so he had no love for the other person. But there was actually another reason why he made that suggestion today.

He did not tell Hera the complete story because there was another unborn son of God in her belly. If he told her, Hera would definitely ask the God King to leave this opportunity to her child, but Zeus didn't want to wait any longer.

All he had to do was wait for Apollo to grow up, declare his existence in front of the Oracle of Delphi, where all the gods have power, and then get the power he gave him. When he welcomed him back to the sacred mountain in the grandest way in front of the gods, and married him the most beautiful goddess by the way, at that time, even if Apollo had resentment towards his father, it would only disappear.

And taking this opportunity, Zeus can also announce his plan to establish the twelve main gods, and then directly turn the canonization ceremony into a part of the ceremony, achieving half of his [kingship].

"Thank you very much for your efforts...but in this world, it is the unscrupulous people who live the best life."

Whispering softly, at this moment, in Zeus's mind, the huge figure that once brought him infinite shadow seemed to shake. The 'father' who made him feel so desperate in the past seemed to be no longer so far away from him.

"Father God... I don't know where you are now. Dead? I don't believe it."

"But no matter where you go, as long as I rule this world, I will eventually find you. When the time comes, I will tell you that I not only learned the things you taught me very well, but I will also use them again. Back to you."

"And Gaia...the mother of the gods, you are part of every generation of god-kings. Since you are so restless, let me use you as my first stepping stone."

[Kingdom] lies in obedience. Whether it is the twelve main gods or other subordinate gods, no matter what reason they fear themselves for, it can further enhance the power of the God-King.

Now, Zeus is no longer afraid of the awakening grandmother. Maybe her waking up would be a good thing.

······

Time is like water, nothing happens in the world. So time has flown by since the birth of Apollo and Artemis.
