Anime Crossover: Unparalleled Comprehension, Shocking the Star God

Su Mo shook his head firmly.

"As long as civilization continues, they will never forget these things."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been called the god of civilization.

"Why do you say that?"

Black Tower asked, slightly puzzled.

"No matter how sophisticated a cosmology is, won't it be easily forgotten over time?"

"On the contrary, the core worldview of myths is often not precise, and can even be described as crude and rudimentary."

Su Mo shook his head and gave a concise explanation.

"For example, the Zoroastrian dualism of good and evil, as long as one adheres to the basic dichotomy and acknowledges that good will always prevail over evil, can be considered as inheriting this worldview."

"For example, the Buddhist concept of 'no-self' means that as long as one continuously explores one's own mind and recognizes that all phenomena are not phenomena and all things are impermanent, one can be considered to have inherited this worldview."

"For example, the Tao of Taoism, the original sin and Forms of Christianity, the cultural fusion of Roman mythology... In fact, you don't even need to know mythology to understand these worldviews. As long as you live in the corresponding cultural context, even an atheist will inevitably be completely immersed in the worldview."

It's a very simple phenomenon: when someone asks another person about something and says "Do you know?", they may not even realize it themselves, but the word "dao" in the word "know" contains fragments of their worldview.

In this context, cosmology has become the foundation of culture, a tool for understanding the world, and, along with human history, deeply engraved in the annals of planetary history, forming the cornerstone of civilization.

Even if one destroys one's own writing system, betrays one's own civilization, and erases one's own past, it is impossible to erase the way one understands the world from one's mind.

To this extent, through the lens of worldview, the god of civilization can almost be said to coexist with human intellect and civilization.

"Under this understanding, regardless of whether an individual likes or dislikes mythology, whether he is a theist or an atheist, or even if he is completely unaware of the existence of gods, gods can still draw faith from him through his cognitive framework."

As he spoke, Su Mo looked into the Black Tower's eyes and asked a question. (Zhao Le Zhao)

Do you think that a civilization with this kind of deity still relies on so-called faith? Does it still care about so-called believers?

"……Won't."

Black Tower slowly shook its head.

The attitude of the Civilization God towards faith, as described by Su Mo, is already infinitely close to that of the Star God.

No, it can't even be described as infinitely close!

Thinking of something, Black Tower looked slightly dazed. After pondering for a while, he raised his head again and spoke to Su Mo in a dreamlike tone.

"Hey, have you noticed that the worldview you're talking about seems quite similar to the abstract philosophical concepts represented by the Star God?"

"Of course it's very high."

Su Mo nodded calmly.

"The so-called mythological worldview is itself the result of the processing of the simple philosophical concepts of our ancestors. The two are essentially the same thing, and sometimes the worldview is even more complete."

In other words, the so-called concept of a civilization god is already very close to the concept of a star god condensed from philosophical ideas.

"..."

Hei Ta did not show any joy after receiving the affirmation. Instead, she looked at Ruan Mei beside her with a slightly twitching expression.

Ruan Mei nodded silently, indicating that she hadn't noticed anything wrong.

Seeing this, Black Tower slapped his head hard.

"I must be crazy to think that your hypothesis makes a lot of sense. It not only perfectly confirms most of the problems, but also explains the origin of the Star Gods... If that's really the case, the entire universe's understanding of the Star Gods will be overturned."

"Who would have thought that the Star God was actually related to the planet's native gods?!"

Even though he had considered this possibility beforehand, when he was truly persuaded, Black Tower still felt that he needed time to accept it.

145 The Creator of the Star God, the Black Tower Completely Conquered

If so-called civilized gods can truly draw faith in the form of a cosmology, then the structural difference between them and star gods is so small as to be negligible.

The biggest difference between the two will only lie in the scale of their power.

The so-called difference in the scale of power is precisely the most obvious characteristic of the theory of transformation.

"If the Star Gods are products of unconscious worship by intelligent life throughout the universe, and the planetary native gods are products of unconscious worship by life within the planet, then such a huge energy difference between the two seems understandable?"

"Black Tower murmured."

In those primitive and ignorant civilizations that still regard their own planet as the entire world, there are many so-called planetary native gods whose worlds are comparable to their own, that is, on a scale comparable to that of a planet, such as the Earth Mother Goddess.

In comparison, the Star Gods are merely beings comparable to the world as perceived by interstellar society, that is, beings on the scale of the observable universe.

They are both on a scale comparable to the world, only their understanding of "world" is different.

Conceptually, the two are identical.

"The power of the planet's native gods comes from the planet's great source, which is the planet's own energy. The power of the star gods comes from imaginary energy, which is also the energy of the universe itself."

Su Mo then spoke, further solidifying his understanding of the Black Tower.

"The difference in strength between the two largely stems from the difference in stage size, which in turn leads to differences in the way they are powered."

Once the so-called planetary native god learns to use imaginary energy, the power gap between Him and the star gods will be greatly reduced.

For example, Arthas, the god of war, is capable of easily destroying dozens of planets, or even a small star system.

Of course, even Altshu could not truly reach the level of being comparable to a Star God.

As Su Mo said before, his essence was too simple, at most at the level of a primitive tribal god, and there was a huge gap between his essence and that of a civilized god or star god who is the embodiment of philosophical concepts.

“That makes sense. If that’s the case, 757 can not only perfectly explain the origin of the Star God’s birth, but also the way the Star God exists.”

Black Tower nodded again, like a chicken pecking at rice.

If these hypotheses can be confirmed, it will be a shock to the entire universe, and may even overturn the entire understanding of the universe.

If she had some doubts before, she was now almost completely convinced by Su Mo.

However, in the end, she still felt that she needed to confirm it again.

"By the way, Su Mo, besides these, do you have any other evidence to confirm this theory?"

In science, isolation is generally not a valid method of proof. Although Su Mo's theory fits the framework of reality perfectly, it is precisely because it fits so perfectly that Black Tower finds it unbelievable.

"For example, this theory can be used to predict or explain other actions of the astral gods. You should know that only theories that can do this are truly well-developed."

Black Tower stared intently at Su Mo, asking expectantly.

A theory that can only explain known phenomena does not have absolute persuasiveness in a practical sense.

Just as theological patches can address almost every mythological flaw, these all-purpose answers that explain everything fail to yield new conclusions and are ultimately useless embellishments, no matter how well they are presented.

A truly excellent theory should be able to explain and even predict unknown phenomena.

"Of course."

Su Mo nodded, not surprised by Black Tower's idea.

Back then, the introduction of general relativity didn't immediately conquer the entire world.

The theory of general relativity is widely accepted, mainly based on three very famous experiments.

The first explanation was for the phenomenon of Mercury's perihelion remaining precession of 43 seconds per century, which Newtonian classical mechanics could not explain. This was an explanation for a phenomenon that previous systems could not explain.

The second prediction was the angle at which light bends in the (cdfg) gravitational field during a total solar eclipse, which explains a phenomenon that will not be observable until the future.

The third prediction was the gravitational redshift phenomenon, something that no other theoretical system had ever addressed. This was an independent answer derived from its own system.

These three experiments led to the widespread acceptance of general relativity; later verifications, such as those concerning the expansion of the universe, were merely icing on the cake.

For a new system to replace an old one, it almost always has to do these things; quantum mechanics followed the same principle in replacing relativity.

Similarly, if Su Mo's theory is to replace the old theories, it must also go through these steps.

Su Mo has now achieved the first step: explaining phenomena that existing theories could not explain. However, he has not yet demonstrated enough for the second and third steps: predicting future phenomena and producing new results.

Of course, even if we only achieve this much, it is a theory that can shake the entire understanding of the universe and is worthy of a genius's place.

However, based on Black Tower's intuition, she believed that Su Mo's limits were far greater than this.

Therefore, she was really looking forward to Su Mo's answer.

"Didn't we mention a phenomenon before? The explosive growth of Star Gods is highly correlated with the development of Star Civilizations."

Su Mo spoke in this way.

"Ah."

Black Tower nodded, asking curiously.

"That's true from a purely statistical point of view, so what?"

"Similar outbreaks are actually commonplace for the planet's native gods."

Su Mo explained calmly.

"The three stages of development of these planetary indigenous gods, from indigenous gods to mythological gods and finally to civilized gods, were not gradual but rather accompanied by geographical discoveries, conflicts of civilizations, and even the integration of multiple civilizations and the establishment of an international civilized society."

Originally tribal gods, they eventually merged into complex myths as inter-tribal conflicts and integration occurred and early civilizations formed.

Different mythologies and beliefs will also have conflicts, clashes, and integrations, and in the end, the civilized god will be the decisive winner.

"The birth of these planetary native gods almost always occurred during periods of dramatic change in civilization."

The gods of Greek mythology were mostly tribal gods born from the precursors of city-state civilizations, and the Christian God was born around the time of the Roman Empire's expansion. As for its prototype, it was closely related to the conquests of Egyptian civilization.

Overall, Earth mythology and star gods share very similar characteristics, both of which erupted dramatically at the same time.

Hearing this, Black Tower nodded slightly.

"They look so alike, so incredibly alike! No wonder you made that connection."

"The integration of civilizations brought about by the invasion of ancient beasts is very similar to the stage you mentioned where native gods transformed into mythological gods. The two great interstellar civilization booms brought about by the pioneering star god Akivili are also closely related to the birth of the star god."

"From this perspective, what the pioneering star god Archivist did is exactly the same as the great geographical discoveries within the planet's indigenous gods... According to this interpretation, the so-called construction of interstellar civilization and the so-called construction of international civilization within the planet are actually so consistent?"

"Aside from the fact that Akivilli discovered a planet and the Age of Discovery discovered land, there is almost no difference?"

At this point, Black Tower's tone became slightly dazed.

History was no longer a linear picture to her, but a cyclical nested doll.
