Kapitel 116: Chapter 116: Stay Grounded! The Gift from the Ancient God Couple: Crystal Wall Gate
"..."
Hades, Erebus, Nyx, Hypnos, and Thanatos, the five deities, fell into silence. The atmosphere suddenly became strange and eerie.
This wasn't a joke.
It was too shocking. In the grand mythological world, becoming a god? No! This was becoming an Absolute God! Hades already had the embryonic form or potential to become an Absolute God? This...
Hades remained silent and said, "It's meaningless. Even if there is a possibility, it's still just a possibility. Every God-King and Ancient God has the potential to step into the realm of the Absolute God."
Hades didn't care, or rather, he saw things very clearly. Potential? It's just potential. Simply put, it's like a joke.
If potential alone could make one an Absolute God, then the number of Absolute Gods would be skyrocketing. But even today, is that the case?
Hades saw this clearly. Everything still needs to be done step by step. Even if there is a slight possibility, it's just a possibility. Does that mean one can absolutely become an Absolute God?
Don't be ridiculous!
The matter at hand is not that simple. It's never been that easy.
"Indeed," Nyx also sighed, "If we think it's that simple, it's indeed naive, but..."
Nyx looked at Hades with eyes full of approval. She had to admit that Hades, the Underworld King whom she and her husband chose to invest in, was truly outstanding.
Not only because Hades, as the Underworld King, matched her and her husband's attributes, but also because of his calm and unhurried personality. This was the most important thing.
The path of a deity is extremely difficult, like sailing against the current—either you advance, or you retreat. This is the core principle. If you are too arrogant or too proud...
Then...
It brings real trouble. This is no joke. If not handled well, it leads to one problem after another.
Nyx looked at Hades, whose expression hadn't changed, and whose inner resolve and unaltered belief remained steadfast. She knew Hades was not shaken by this possibility.
Hades said calmly, "Staying grounded is more important. For now, mastering the Ultimate Power and stepping into the realm of the Ancient Gods is what matters most. Before that, everything else is meaningless."
Hades always kept a very indifferent expression, as if everything that just happened was entirely meaningless.
This really wasn't a joke. Hades truly didn't care, or rather, even if these things did happen, he would suppress his emotions, staying calm and composed.
Joy?
Excitement?
These would only create problems at critical moments. The possibility is just that—a possibility. It doesn't guarantee success. In such situations, a bit of thought reveals the true meaning behind it all.
"..."
The Twin Gods were genuinely bewildered, especially seeing their lord Hades being so indifferent. That was the possibility of becoming an Absolute God!
Even though...
The possibility might only increase from 0% to 0.000001%, but it was still a possibility. For gods, the most feared thing is having no possibility at all. Even if they give their all, they can't advance further.
This is the most despairing thing for gods. But now, their lord Hades already had the qualification to advance further, yet he remained so calm.
It was truly admirable. Look at Mephisto—what was he like? It was almost laughable. Seriously, Mephisto would willingly be Hades' dog just to step into the realm of the God-King.
"Hmm!"
Erebus also said solemnly, "Hades, the path you walk is quite special. But in my view, your goal is naturally to become an Absolute God. If that's the case..."
"Then..."
Erebus looked deeply at Hades and said seriously, "Actually! The best choice is to pursue multiple approaches simultaneously. Only then do you have a real chance."
"Forge a divine kingdom with the World Tree, absorb faith with perfect beings, diligently cultivate your laws, and simultaneously grasp the Ultimate Power and the power beyond it."
"These are four approaches. In this way, you can achieve the greatest benefits. Similarly, in my view, this is the most appropriate."
Erebus's words were indeed very difficult to achieve. It's not an easy task at all!
These suggestions sound simple when spoken, but to actually achieve them? That's no joke! It's almost as difficult as ascending to the heavens. This is the solid truth.
Hades also carefully considered Erebus's words, calculating many things in his mind. After a while, he said quietly, "Indeed, becoming an Absolute God represents the pinnacle of divinity. Any flaw is unacceptable."
"Exactly," Nyx also agreed. "Becoming an Absolute God represents the pinnacle of divinity. Any flaw means a deity cannot take that final step, even if..."
Nyx shook her head and paused before continuing, "Hades, some things I cannot describe to you. For you, it's better not to know."
Hades simply nodded silently. Then he wouldn't ask. Of course, some things could be guessed. Probably, it involved Gaia.
The Earth Goddess was very special. It's likely that this Ancient God couple was referring to her situation. However, like a thin paper window, it's best not to break it casually.
Otherwise!
It would not be good. After understanding the situation, Hades prepared to leave. At this moment, Erebus thought for a moment and said, "Hades, this is the last gift we can give you."
"Crystal Wall Gate?"
Hades looked at the divine artifact Erebus took out, showing a look of surprise and shock.
