Myth: The Spiritual Dominator

"Speaking of that stone tablet... I almost forgot about it."

Looking at the ritual patterns that he didn't know where to use, Ryan suddenly recalled the broken stone tablet that he had thrown away in the depths of his collection for a long time.

In Odin's treasury, he successively obtained the [Golden Ring], the divine sword [Levadin], the [Original Code] of [Rune Runes], and a sword made from the poisonous spring of Niflheim. The poison and its antidote, as well as the resentment of the original giant Ymir.

Some of these things have been used, and some have not been used yet, but no matter what, Ryan knows more or less what they do. Only the broken stone tablet he obtained together was different. From the moment he obtained it, he had no idea what it was for. Even under his observation, it was just an ordinary thing.

Ryan even tried to destroy it, but stopped after only fraying one corner. Because he suddenly discovered that this stone tablet was not a 'self-obscuring divine object' as he thought. Even if there was no abnormality, it had the characteristics of being unable to be destroyed.

On the contrary, all its characteristics prove that it is an ordinary stone - at most, it is a stone of some age. It's just that this is not something from the world of Khaos, so Ryan can't accurately judge the years it has experienced.

If such a thing had not appeared in Odin's treasury and been treasured and collected together with other treasures by the god-king from another world, I am afraid that no god would have given it a second glance. But there are no ifs, so even if he couldn't see what it was used for at the time, Ryan still kept it well.

In fact, Ryan actually attaches great importance to the god-king from another world. Because the trip to the Nine Worlds made it very clear that that world did not seem to be like that described in Scandinavian mythology, but was quite different.

If the world of Khaos has embarked on a completely different destiny trajectory because of his existence, then the changes in the Nine Realms are undoubtedly closely related to Odin, who foresaw the death of all things. So when Ryan saw Odin again in Athena's memory, he felt it was natural.

This one-eyed king riding an eight-legged horse, Repnir, definitely has some unknown secret. This stone tablet may be related to it - or it may not be related, but it must be something valuable.

But now, thinking about it again, Ryan realized that maybe he should find it. Because unlike before, he now has new tools.

"Well...I remember it was there."

After recalling it, in a remote palace on Mount Sinaia, Ryan found the stone tablet that had never been taken out since it was stored there.

Because he didn't know what was special about it, Ryan was not sure whether the laws of Chaos would affect it. Therefore, in that remote palace, he artificially constructed a law environment similar to the Nine Realms.

So with a wave of time and space, the broken stone tablet appeared in front of Ryan's eyes. But just like every time before, he couldn't see anything wrong with it.

Without making any more unnecessary attempts, Ryan raised his hand and held it empty, and the droplets of creation power fell directly into his palm. The divinity of time and space that constitutes the most fundamental spiritual world trembled slightly, as if it was resonating with the power of this source.

It is its existence that allows this 'water drop' to be used, rather than being inaccessible at all like it exists in two dimensions. But Ryan didn't plan to use it for anything now. He just maintained the contact, and then looked at the ordinary stone tablet again.

There seems to have been some writing on the broken monument, but now it has long been blurred and has become difficult to read. Previous observations often stopped here, and it did not show anything strange. However, this time from a higher perspective, Ryan felt as if he had indeed seen something.

"Is this... a mark?"

It was a mark as broken as a stone tablet—or coordinates, a mark, or something else.

This is undoubtedly a directional thing, and the location it points to is not presented in the form of space-time coordinates. It's difficult for Lane to describe this expression, but it is indeed a guide.

And it seems to exist in the same position as this ashlar, but the latter seems to be just the carrier of the former. It was indeed just an ordinary stone tablet, and it only became important because of the mark that somehow fell on it.

"So what kind of mark is this? Who left it, or was it naturally generated? And Odin, why does he have such a thing?"

His eyes narrowed slightly, and for some reason, Ryan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when looking at this strange mark. He seemed to have some connection with this thing, but he had no impression of it at all.

"Interesting, if only a world-level power can detect the mark, how did Odin detect it? He also said that he didn't actually see the mark, but just like me before, he knew that it was important, but he didn't know it at all. It’s important to know why.”

Guesses flashed through my mind, then were instantly erased.

Maybe when the Nine Realms were still there, this mark was not as silent as it is now. There is no evidence for these speculations. And Odin is dead after all, no one knows what he thinks. So Ryan didn't think about it anymore. He was just bearing the pressure caused by contact with the 'water droplets' while thinking about what he should do.

The broken marks left in the treasure house of the Nine Realms don't look like they point to a certain place in the world of Khaos - of course it's impossible to say for sure. Perhaps the location it points to is one of the nine kingdoms, and it has now become part of Khaos.

But no matter what, this is something worth exploring, but during the recent period, Ryan has no time to run around.

He will first stay here until the positive and negative energy interface is completely stable, and then find the location of the world of Hermione when Typhon comes to the world. Before that, he didn't plan to make any big moves.

Moreover, the mark is still incomplete, and no one can guarantee that it will point to the correct location. So looking at this broken mark, Ryan finally just injected a little spiritual power into it, and then let it float into the void along the guidance of the mark under the protection of the power of time and space.

He didn't expect this power to have any effect, it was just a temporary exploration. After completing this step, Ryan released the connection with the 'Water Drop' and smoothly sent the stone tablet back to the palace.

This matter is just a small episode, and it does not require too much energy before there are specific results.

"But speaking of which, I don't know what Gaia is doing now."

"It is said in later generations that Mother Earth had intercourse with Tartarus in anger, and gave birth to a hundred-headed dragon and snake, Typhon, the king of demons, in a cave in Cilicia. But judging from the current news, It seems that the abyss has not suddenly released its power to the outside world..."

He was somewhat confused, so until the first battle in hell was over, the changes he was waiting for had not yet appeared. This was somewhat beyond Ryan's expectation.

He had thought that when Gaia left Olympus in anger, her act of having children with the Abyss would happen soon. This will occupy Tartarus' energy to a certain extent, and then the power of sending him to Hell with Sleep early in the morning will take effect.
