Absolute gods have both innate and acquired differences.
Of course!
An innate absolute god is one who has been an absolute god from the moment of their birth. They are born as absolute gods, emerging from the Chaos Sea, cultivating laws, and gradually striving toward higher levels.
However...
This path is extremely difficult. In fact, many absolute gods have not advanced in a long time. They are essentially stuck at a certain point and cannot progress any further.
There is no way around it.
Only once someone truly steps into the level of an absolute god do they realize the difficulty.
An absolute god!
That is a truly extremely difficult level, and that is beyond dispute.
Furthermore!
There are also acquired absolute gods. These gods are born in the Mythical Great World, where they start their journey by cultivating hard and eventually achieve the level of absolute god.
This is the birth of each absolute god.
Moreover!
Acquired absolute gods are sometimes centered around laws, and sometimes around the power of belief.
Of course!
More often than not, they are centered around laws. As for belief power, it is relatively rare. It is because of this that acquired absolute gods are also able to be born.
This is why.
The Chaos Sea currently has a larger number of absolute gods.
The path of gods has never been one of stasis or being sealed. Instead, it truly has room for further progress. Otherwise...
If there were no qualification or method to advance further, the entire Chaos Sea would fall into complete silence!
If the path of ascent were utterly gone...
Then!
For the entire Chaos Sea, it would fall into complete death, a dead silence, rather than the current state of flourishing development.
This is the special nature of the entire Chaos Sea, and it is beyond dispute. This is a matter that does not need further consideration.
Because of this!
For the current Chaos Sea, any change or movement is of absolute importance to all gods, even if the opportunity only comes once, like a miracle.
But!
Does the one who holds that opportunity truly have a chance of success?
And this!
Is the most important point. As long as there is a chance to advance further, that is the most important thing. For any god, the greatest fear is always one thing.
That is, no matter how hard they try, they will never be able to progress, always stuck at the same point. That is the most terrifying thing!
Anything else?!
Everything else is something that can be accepted or considered.
After all!
As long as there is an opportunity for progress, that is the core and foundation of what matters most.
The future path is the most important thing!
Otherwise, what about everything else?
Clearly!
This is self-evident for gods. It is the same path for them. As long as there is a chance and the qualification to advance further, that is the core issue.
At the very least!
Having such an opportunity means that the gods can truly improve.
However!
On this path, in the journey of becoming an absolute god, not one has truly entered the level of absolute god through the cultivation of their divine kingdom.
This is something that Hades must now consider.
Undoubtedly!
In essence, every god who reaches the level of absolute god seems to have entered it in a similar manner. But fundamentally?
In reality!
It is not like that at all.
This is the key point. Every god's path to becoming an absolute god is different, so from an essential perspective, there is no reference value.
However...
In terms of the fundamental paths, it is still either the laws or the power of belief. The path Hades is walking is indeed one that no god has ever walked before.
Under such circumstances.
There is no way out!
Hades is helpless about this, but! Regardless of how things are, Hades has never shown any signs of slackening or giving up. This is the path he has chosen, and he will walk it to the end.
However!
Having just stepped into the Ancient God level, or rather, about to step into the Creator God level...
Hades has already realized the problem.
This path.
Seems to have gradually reached its limit. How should he continue? That is the core issue!
Hades is pondering this, trying to think of a way to find an opportunity to advance further.
Hades!
Has never had any thoughts of giving up and is simply not capable of giving up!
No god would choose to retreat.
Even!
Knowing that this path might lead to death, but! Is it really just about facing death? Is there truly no chance of success?
Not at all!
For gods, as long as there is even a slight chance of success, they will walk forward without hesitation. That is what gods are like. They are beings who will give everything, even sacrifice everything, for the chance to progress further.
However!
Sometimes, when you give everything, it might actually signify your failure. This is not a joke.
Giving does not guarantee success, and not giving does not necessarily lead to failure.
Hades is fully aware of this.
"…"
Hades silently sensed something, and after a long while, he slowly spoke, "The matter of incorporating the small world into the Underworld is no longer up for further discussion."
"Understood!"
Persephone and Hestia also stopped discussing the matter.
Since their husband or brother had made up his mind, then! Naturally, there was nothing more to say.
This is the core issue.
The greater the storm, the more valuable the fish; this saying was never a joke.
After all!
For this world, it has always been this way, and will always be this way.
Hades remained calm, quietly contemplating how to handle the small world and how to fully incorporate it into the scope of the Underworld.
"Hypnos."
"Thanatos."
Hades spoke indifferently.
As the gates of the Underworld opened, two figures emerged—these were the Twin Gods.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The Twin Gods bowed, their eyes filled with endless respect.
Hades silently nodded and said, "The restart of that small world."
"Your Majesty."
Hypnos reported, "Everything has been handled. The restart of the small world is stable, with no fluctuations. All the evil god powers have been completely purged."
"Mm."
Hades nodded silently and continued, "Hypnos, Thanatos, after handling this small world, use the Wood Luanzi Tree and the Magic Star to locate all the small worlds belonging to the Underworld, and determine the coordinates of these small worlds."
"Understood!"
Hypnos and Thanatos respectfully withdrew.
The two brothers didn't know what their lord wanted to do.
But!
It didn't matter. No matter what their lord intended to do, since it was their lord's command, it was their duty to carry it out.
As for anything else?
That wasn't important!
In a certain sense, for many gods, more thinking and considerations are unnecessary. They just need to obey.
That is the core.
Especially!
Since it was their lord's command, they believed that as long as they followed their lord's orders, it would be more than enough.
"Mm~~~"
After the Twin Gods left, Hestia rubbed her smooth chin thoughtfully and said, "Let the Twin Gods search! That isn't an issue. However! Brother, who should go and bring all the small worlds back?"
To be honest.
No one, except for Hades, knew how many small worlds were connected to the Underworld. The locations were scattered across the ends of the earth.
Before.
When Hades had no real intention of incorporating the small worlds into the Underworld, he had never truly explored their locations. So,
Who knew where these small worlds were in the Chaos Sea? It could really be problematic.
Hades spoke silently, "This matter will be handled by Erebus, Nyx, and Moros, along with the Killing Shrine's Qi Huang."
Hades' voice was indifferent, but it confirmed who would handle the matter.
The most suitable personnel.
Would be the three Ancient Gods of the Underworld.
Of course!
Even with the power of the Ancient Gods, bringing all the small worlds back would still require consideration. Hades would attach the power of the Invisibility Helm to them.
Otherwise,
Even relying on the three Ancient Gods, bringing all the small worlds back would not be an easy task.
"Mm~~~"
Hestia nodded in understanding.
This matter.
Had already started to move.
For the Underworld,
This was an easy task.
After all!
For the Underworld, Hades' commands were the foundation of everything. The Twin Gods quickly grasped the traces of all the small worlds. After that, they naturally began to get busy.
…
Chaos Sea!
Erebus and Nyx, the Ancient God couple, appeared simultaneously in the Chaos Sea.
"Mm~~~"
Erebus was enveloped in the power of the Invisibility Helm, so he wouldn't be corroded by the Chaos Sea. Of course, this was only for a short time. If the time were prolonged,
After all,
The Invisibility Helm was not an artifact belonging to Erebus, so problems could easily arise. Thus, Erebus needed to handle everything within a short time.
"Truly!"
"It has been so long since I last truly ventured into the Chaos Sea!"
Erebus said with some emotion.
Clearly!
This Ancient God couple had truly ventured into the Chaos Sea before, but when? At what time? No one knew.
Afterward.
Erebus shook his head and said calmly, "Nyx, be cautious. As for when the changes in the Chaos Sea will explode, that is something no one knows. We still need to manage our time."
"I understand."
Nyx smiled and nodded, "I'll take care of everything. But you, Erebus
, are you really going to take the risk of carrying the helm? It isn't without consequences, after all."
Erebus shook his head.
"I'll be fine."
Erebus looked up and said, "I have my own plan."
