Chapter 43 Chapter 20: Evil Objects
Translator: 549690339
Half a day later, Laine returned to the heart of the Spirit Realm.
Mount Sinai was as tranquil as usual, with virtually no life able to approach it except for Laine and the first-generation angels he had created himself. The light from the seven moons cascaded down, lending the place a semblance to the Land of Eternal Night.
The domain of the Night Lady and The Dark Overlord were different, Eternal Night did not an the absence of light.
“Evil Spirits—or perhaps it is more appropriate to call them Evil Beings.”
“Even though they are purely spiritual bodies, this thod of direct integration with the Source Power seems to be applicable not only to spiritual bodies.”
With a wave, Laine dismissed Liana, who had co to greet him, and sat in the Temple of Elas, watching the indefinable and erratic eclipses, feeling sowhat pleasantly surprised.
Such beings, possessing great power and also capable of rapid developnt, were indeed useful. Other deities could not do this because beings directly fused with Source Power lacked wisdom; their thoughts were entirely chaotic and mad. Even the creators of these beings found it difficult to control their behavior.
But Laine was different. As the master of Source Power in essence and the one who had opened up the Spirit Realm, he could control these lives in other ways.
“In later tis, Gaia bore Typhon to express her dissatisfaction with Zeus, to declare her power. Perhaps by that ti, I too could set loose a couple of Ancient Evils upon Mount Olympus to see how this Divine King who sows his seeds across the world would cope.”
Lightly tapping the armrest of his chair, Laine was very satisfied with his creation.
The cultivation of a deity required ti; even with a powerful godhood, it also needed a potential vessel and ample ti to accumulate Divine Power. But these evil beings were born powerful, like the Hekatonkheires, they were at their pinnacle from birth.
The only imperfection was that perhaps due to the fusion with the Chaotic Source Force, the eclipses had gained even more strength, but they were also subtly rejected by the laws of the material world.
The Chaotic Origin was, after all, the detritus expelled from the material world’s order after the ‘laws’ were established; now, even though they had integrated with other elents, they were still unwelco by the material world.
It could be said that these kinds of evil beings could only make brief stays in the outside world or use so ans to block the laws’ detection of them. Otherwise, the longer they stayed in the material world, the stronger the suppression from the planes would be.
Only at the fringes of the Underworld, the ends of the ocean and The Sky, the domains of the three Primordial Gods, and a few other places were exceptions. Like the Spirit Realm, those regions were outside the control of the material world, so the eclipses naturally would not be affected.
“The Ancient Evil Being of the Spirit Realm, the undefinable one that roams the threshold of reality and illusion, this is really getting more and more interesting.”
“I wonder if the people of later generations will consider the depths of the Spirit Realm a feared forbidden land where Evil Gods roam everywhere.”
Smiling, he shook his head, Laine was, in fact, sowhat looking forward to this.
With a slash through space, Laine sent the eclipses to the fifth layer of the Spirit Realm.
For such a Spirit Realm life with power comparable to a True God, if it had wisdom and rationality, it would naturally be able to travel freely among the seven layers of the Spirit Realm, but clearly, the eclipses were not among them.
Compared to ordinary life, it actually prefers to stay in the deep, chaotic layers of the Spirit Realm. For these beings, the shallow layers of the first and second levels of the Spirit Realm are sowhat ‘confining’.
This ‘confinent’ is not spatial, but rather a matter of spirituality. When dwelling in the shallow layers of the Spirit Realm, an evil spirit that cannot condense its power like a True God feels an instinctive sense of restraint, and its very existence is an unstoppable disaster for the non-divine beings of the Spirit Realm. Thus, unless necessary, Laine does not intend to allow it to move around freely.
It’s best to let it stay in the fifth or sixth layers of the Spirit Realm. For the wisdom-less Ekliptos, even wandering for ten thousand years, unable to comprehend the chaotic space-ti of the deep Spirit Realm, it might just be going in circles in the sa spot.
Having dealt with the newly created evil spirit, Laine took out the “Codex of Creation” again.
Compared to before, the brass-colored ancient book had clearly gained many more patterns, which were manifestations of the rules of the current world. The thickness of the book hadn’t changed, but Laine knew that its ‘number of pages’ had increased by about a third.
Through this legislative process, the components of this Genesis Artifact were completely perfected.
From now on, it no longer needed to stay in the Source Power pool of the Spirit Realm, but could serve as one of the cores of the Spirit Realm, assisting Laine in organizing rules and integrating Source Power.
With this single artifact alone, the rules and order of the Spirit Realm could be strengthened by more than thirty percent on the original level. Externally, the expansiveness of the Spirit Realm greatly accelerated; internally, the suppression by the interface against other lifeforms entering the Spirit Realm without permission also intensified.
It could be said that for beings below the Interdiate Divine Power level, Laine didn’t need to take action himself, as the chains of laws within the Spirit Realm alone could easily suppress them.
“That is, the ‘Codex of Creation’ is not an artifact for attacking. Its power leans more towards assistance rather than direct combat.”
“Otherwise, a Hyperion who has fallen to the 16th level of Divine Power, even with the support of the Mother of Light, I would absolutely be able to suppress him head-on, without needing to go through all this trouble.”
Shaking his head, Laine knew the key issue was that he was busy integrating Source Power, raising the bulk of the Spirit Realm and the ceiling of Godhood, and had little ti to accumulate Divine Power.
This ti forcing Hyperion to surrender also occurred because the ti, place, and people were all favorable. Otherwise, with his current level 12 Divine Power, it would indeed be very difficult to win with rely an assistive artifact.
The hierarchy of Divine Power among deities increases significantly the higher one goes. Below Interdiate Divine Power, the type of authority and number of deities are key to deciding victory or defeat. Two or three True Gods with weak Divine Power could defeat one with Weak Divine Power; a Godhood oriented towards combat could enable a deity to ‘fight above their level’ like the protagonist of a xianxia novel, taking on multiple foes by themselves.
But once you reach the realm of strong Divine Power, basically being two levels higher in Divine Power ans one can fight two others and still have the upper hand. And those who have reached this point typically do not have a weak Godhood either.
“Once I’ve absorbed the Source Power of Chaos’s ‘Fire,’ I wonder if I’ll be able to create an artifact specialized in combat. Zeus has his ‘Thunderbolt,’ Cronus has his sickle, and I too should have a weapon that belongs to .”
“It’s just that the power of ‘Fire’ is indeed a bit overwhelming. I hope I can fully absorb the relevant concepts before the birth of Cronus’s eldest daughter.”
Sighing, Laine still continued with the great task of assimilating Source Power.
When it cos to being a deity, Zeus definitely has it the easiest, either abusing his authority or on the path seeking princesses/queens/goddesses. Nothing like himself, who since the inception of the Spirit Realm, has barely had a few days of leisure ti.
But, sigh as he might, now was clearly not the ti for Laine to relax. Once the associated deities of Chaos are born one after the other, unless there’s another as easily deceived as Cronus, he wouldn’t be able to fleece the world as unscrupulously as he does now.
To enhance the origin through the Spirit Realm’s own operations is nowhere near as simple as snatching it directly. Therefore, before that ti cos, it was natural for Laine to ‘grab as much as he can.’
