Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator.

Chapter 547 Before the Abyss
"I can give you my memories and understanding of the sun, so that you can use them to re-examine the laws of the sun."

"Although it may not completely conform to Chaos' inherent order, as long as it can bring about good enough changes, you can turn the current situation around little by little."

"Although the zodiac star field is the essence of the starry sky, in the final analysis, the zodiac existed only because the sun existed first."

"If you can change and sublimate the essence of the sun, it will not only help you prevent them from plundering your power, but you can also absorb the power of the Zodiac Star Field itself."

He smiled and said, although the last part was a bit of a pie in the sky, after all, Amon didn't think Helios could make it that far, but he didn't lie about the previous part.

Based on his current preliminary understanding of Chaos' order, this would indeed help the other party regain control of the sun.

There was a glimmer of desire in his eyes, and Helios remained silent, but he was gradually developing a tendency in his heart.

Amon was right. For the gods of Chaos, broadening the concept of priesthood, extending new areas, and even sorting out their own divine authority, these actions can indeed make them favored by the world and increase their most fundamental power.

The same logic applies to true gods who have some local characteristics and grow their power by expanding their "territory", such as the rights over the ocean and the starry sky.

It's just that they are more of a fight for the 'stock' of the world that already has some concept, while Amon is talking about the 'incremental' expansion of the concept of the sun. The former requires fighting with others, but the latter does not have this need.

However, for thousands of years, there are naturally reasons why the gods would rather seek faith than expand their priesthood.

Since the beginning of the world, there has been no existence that can expand the concept of priesthood on its own, except for the gods in ancient times who followed the guidance of priesthood and perfected the concept under the guidance of fate.

The Goddess of Law expelled chaos from the world, the Lord of the Sky evolved the original patriarchy, and even the gods created human beings, an intelligent life. All these things seemed to be the actions of the gods themselves, but in fact they were just a necessity guided by fate.

Just as no matter how magnificent and fantastic human imagination is, it is absolutely impossible to imagine something that has no connection with anything one has seen or heard in the past life, the gods born in the world of Chaos naturally cannot develop concepts that Chaos himself does not have out of thin air.

As for making some improvements and expansions on existing concepts... this may also be a way.

Unfortunately, even if you can gain strength in this way, the actual increase is negligible.

After all, the duties of the gods came from the world, and it was already quite complete. Even if it could be modified, it would be like finding the 101st solution to a problem with 100 solutions. Not only was the difficulty ridiculously high, but the increase could not be said to be completely absent, it could only be said to be basically dispensable.

As a result, almost no gods would do such things anymore. Instead of wasting time on these things, they would rather wait for the world's size to increase naturally.

Until this moment, Amon's advice was undoubtedly like a lamp in the darkness, illuminating a new path beyond the original one.

"Sir Amon, please forgive me for being blunt. Whether it's you or the great Scarlet Mother, your power is unquestionable. Even the most powerful being in Chaos may not be able to match you."

"But since you two have finally come to us, I'm afraid the situation in your birth world... must be very bad."

Helios was a little excited and wanted to agree. However, when his emotions surged, he chose to calm down first.

No matter what, he had been in jail twice. As two epochs passed, his patience increased.

"As far as I know, Chaos's origin has risen sharply more than once in recent years."

"The earth, the starry sky, and everything in the world are getting stronger."

"As expected, the source of the rise in world power is the corpse from the alien interface."

"So, Lord Amon, the sun in a foreign land is good, but if it has become part of the world, then I'm afraid it will be of no use to me."

"No - Lord Helios, I can assure you that the sun of our world has not yet merged into this world."

"My perception is correct on this point, so you can rest assured."

With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Amon leaned forward and looked at Helios under the giant crystal tree.

There was no other way. His last attempt was terminated by the witch before it even began. So before he could really do anything, he had to try in another way.

Fish with a straight hook, and those who are willing will take the bait.

He was only responsible for providing the bait. As for whether Helios was a fish or a bigger bait, it all depended on his luck.

Anyway, for Amon, he just wanted to know if there were any fish here and whether he needed to pay more attention, rather than really wanting to catch anything.

After all, the positions of prey and hunter would always switch inadvertently. At least until now, Amon had no intention of getting involved in the game himself.

"So, Lord Helios, do you accept my kindness?"

"...Of course, I accept."

After pondering for a moment and looking at Amon's smiling face, Helios finally gave an answer.

Among all the gods, no one is willing to do charity to others, at least the foreign god in front of him does not seem to be such an existence.

Just by looking at this face, Helios was certain that the other party had ulterior motives.

'Information about the foreign sun', 'It is confirmed that it has not yet been integrated into Chaos'... Putting these two pieces of information together, you can tell that there must be something fishy going on.

However, Helios was also certain that even if he continued to ask, he would not be able to get a true answer from Amon.

Heh…he’s an Outer God after all.

Although Chaos, the true god of lies, is nameless, there is never a lack of deception in the world.

Seriously speaking, the help provided by the Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood was also a covetousness of the power of the sun. However, under Chaos' supreme power, He was ultimately unable to erode his mind.

Being used by others is not a terrible thing, what is terrible is that no one is willing to use you. Helios understood this when he joined Cronus in ancient times and replaced his father to drive the sun.

Over the past tens of millions of years, he had found more than one boss for himself. Two generations of God Kings, Mother Earth Gaia, Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood... Now he wouldn't mind having another Amon with an unknown purpose.

As long as he can find bosses who are more powerful than the last, and as long as he can change his allegiance quickly enough, then with his identity as the sun god, Zephyros's today will be his tomorrow.

"In that case, I wish His Excellency Helios to be free from the seal and regain his freedom in advance."

Under the tall tree, Amon and Helios smiled at each other, as if they were celebrating the establishment of their cooperation.

There was no wind, but the crystal-like trees swayed slightly. The mother tree just watched quietly without any reaction to the deal between the bearer of her power and another Outer God.

The Bloody Sun gradually calmed down, as if it was licking its own wounds.

······
Some time has passed in the world since the Blood Day Riots and the chaos in the starry sky.

Under the starry sky, everything seems very quiet.

Either Perseus' body was completely shattered, or the gods who had lived in the star realm came to the Zodiac to find out the reason.

When the King of Gods on Mount Olympus turned a blind eye to this, and the Moon Goddess, who had long lived in the depths of the spiritual world, personally stepped into the starry sky barrier, all problems were no longer problems.

Although the Death Star seemed to be dead, just as Typhon's death brought about a kind of demons and ancient evils, as this huge star collapsed, countless evil creatures were released from his corpse.

However, the moment the Lord of the Dark Moon arrived in the starry sky, all the evil creatures in the entire Zodiac star field were instantly turned into dust under the moonlight sweeping across the starry sky.

Without the essence of the ancient evil, the immortality of ordinary evil spirits does not mean much in front of the goddess.

Except for a few that left the ecliptic realm before her arrival, the remnants of the Death Star were almost all destroyed, leaving only the broken stars still wandering around.

Apart from this, the only thing worth mentioning in the entire starry sky is probably the brief fight between Aether, the god of skylight, and the goddess of the moon, who arrived earlier.

However, no one saw the clash between two powerful beings, and not even the many heroic spirits knew what the outcome would be.

They could only speculate based on Aether's departure that perhaps the ancient god had made some mistake and was defeated after hundreds of rounds of fighting.

As for the speculation that is more inclined towards one side... that is not a speculation that the heroic spirits dare to make.

Even Perseus's understanding of the gods was limited to the fact that the level of divine power and the priesthood could affect the outcome of a battle, and true gods with greater power than God often had to fight for a long time in places without restrictions before the outcome could be determined.

As for the two gods fighting each other, he only knew a little about the God of Skylight, with whom he had had friction before.

After all, with his identity, only the gods of Olympus can have contact with him.

In short, due to the neglect of the God-King, this tragic defeat was limited to the heroic spirits in the starry sky, and the human world knew nothing about it.

Only a few scholars who were good at stargazing were worried. They drew the celestial phenomena of that day and either presented them to the king or sealed them up for future generations.

Two suns appeared at the same time, a blood-red sun was in the sky, the red star turned into a brown star, and then there was a stream of fire falling from the sky, and stars fell in the wild.

Some people believed that this was a sign of divine punishment, so they prayed to the gods; others decided to move their families and look for a territory far away from the existing countries.

Because they believed that this was fate's warning to the gods and men in the mortal world, implying that a disaster like the Typhon disaster would break out in the world.

But as the days go by, for most mortals in the world, the changes in the celestial phenomena are still too far away, while the turmoil in the world is always around them.

On the land of Athens, battles broke out one after another, and heroes on earth also spread their reputations on the battlefield.

The gods have not yet left, so the intensity of the war is just ordinary.

In the eyes of truly insightful people, the seemingly bustling world is actually the calm before the storm. Once the real flame is ignited, it will sweep away all people and gods.

Of course, whether it is the human world or the starry sky, the hustle and bustle above the earth has no effect on the earth below.

The dark moon hangs high in the sky, and the river of fire is raging.

Beside the river of Styx, the River of Oaths, there are mountains and seas of bones. The blue soul fire flickers in the skulls, illuminating the flower vines along the river.

Strolling along the river, a middle-aged man who looked somewhat different from the King of Gods on the sacred mountain looked at the underworld ruled by Hades.

Over the years, the origin of the underworld has increased a lot, and perhaps because the underground world is closer to [darkness], Erebus, who was unwilling to increase his power too much, also shared some of the source power from the world with it.

It's a pity that the core of the underworld is not [darkness], and it has been slow to condense an independent "symbol" to push the power of the entire interface into the realm of great divine power.

In this case, the power that the underworld can accept is really limited. In a sense, the power it currently carries is actually far beyond the expectations of the Lord of Darkness.

Clearly it had not breached that boundary, but the power it shared with Erebus was almost more than that of creating a true god at the pinnacle of powerful divine power... However, Hermeneus's power was endless, and the carrying capacity of the underworld was ultimately limited.

Unless the entire Hades crossed that critical area, its size alone would not be able to alleviate the troubles encountered by Erebus.

“…Isn’t it here?”

"Is he hiding from me, or is this just an accident..."

Not knowing that the original gods also had troubles, and even less understanding the problem of 'too much power', Zeus couldn't help but feel a little disappointed as he glanced across the banks of the River Styx.

I don’t know if it’s just because he’s not here or for some other reason, but Styx himself doesn’t seem to be here.

This made the King of Gods feel a little regretful. After all, if possible, Zeus would rather she replace Poseidon and become the new main god of Olympus than Nereus, the god of the sea.

On the one hand, the original sea god is now a member of Olympus, but is outside the divine court.

Instead of increasing their power, Zeus would rather find a counterbalance for them on the sea, and then calmly resolve the ocean problem.

At this time, Styx, the daughter of the Ocean God but with a mediocre relationship with the gods, is undoubtedly the best choice. After all, she can not only balance the four seas, but her existence itself is a river running through the underworld. She is one of the most important gods who controls the origin of the underworld...

"Pity."

After waiting for a while, Zeus finally gave up.

The time has almost come, and it is time for this special incarnation of his, created from his own flesh and blood, to set off.

As for the underworld, we will discuss it later.

Just like the four seas, as long as no great divine power is born in the underworld, in the eyes of Zeus, Hades is just another Poseidon.
