Of course.
Nurturing a small world isn't difficult for Hades. From a small world to a dimensional universe, parallel universe, or multiverse, it's possible with time. But the issue is, it requires a significant amount of time. With that time, why not achieve it all at once? Starting from zero and starting from 100 are incomparable. Moreover, small worlds within the ever-changing Chaos Sea are not bound by any rules.
Small worlds can undergo unexpected transformations, potentially yielding precious treasures. This is entirely normal.
"Meow~~~"
With a cute meow, black cats began systematically destroying an entire small world. Cheshire, arms crossed, with a disdainful expression, said, "Such a weak small world! It's too weak and unworthy of being enveloped by the Underworld."
In the end! With Cheshire's relentless destruction, all the inhabitants of the small world fought back desperately, but their fate was sealed. The brilliant fireworks in the Chaos Sea were beautiful but insignificant.
In a short time.
Cheshire returned to the Demon Star of Earth Beast Star, moving towards the next small world. Apart from Karon, Stand, and Cheshire, the other Demon Stars, each bearing Underworld Armor, entered small worlds randomly, modified them, and began their destruction.
Suitable small worlds would be enveloped by the Underworld, becoming part of it. The method of connection? It was quite simple, through the concept of the Underworld.
Birth, aging, illness, and death! Reincarnation!
These concepts exist, but many small worlds are incomplete. Through the concept of the Underworld, a method of crossing the Chaos Sea is formed, controlling it in this special way.
Hades, on the other side of the Crystal Wall System, more easily manipulated the Demon Stars, rapidly expanding outward at an incredible speed.
Naturally.
At such a fast pace, most small worlds were destroyed. These small worlds had no qualifications for advancement. Since that's the case, they were meaningless.
Because of this, Hades didn't waste words. As each small world was destroyed, only a small fraction remained, deemed qualified by the Underworld Warriors.
Although still small worlds, they were complete and three-dimensional, the type Hades needed to control as core elements.
As time passed, Karon discovered something interesting in a new small world.
"Oh?!"
Karon, carrying an oar, smiled broadly and said, "This is the aura of demon gods? Although very weak, it is indeed the aura of demon gods! How interesting, to find the aura of demon gods in a small world. Let me see... what kind of small world is this?"
Karon observed the small world closely and entered it. The inhabitants were captive, the sky was dark red, the ground was dark red, and towering pillars carved with demon god runes stood between heaven and earth.
"The Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods."
"Interesting."
"Very interesting."
Karon immediately recognized what it was, his smile growing. The Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods, also known as Solomon's Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods, though this isn't entirely accurate.
Belial, one of the seven rulers of Hell, is their master. He targeted the soul of Solomon, the son of God, and sent the Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods to assist him. The price was that after Solomon's death, his soul would belong to Belial. The Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods were not Belial's subordinates but an independent group, acting as mercenaries.
If paid properly, they would follow orders. If not, they wouldn't. This was their relationship with Belial.
However.
The Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods in a small world are not the true Seventy-Two Pillars, but essentially, they are the same. Born from a small world, they have the same essence and origin, though limited in power.
In other words!
In the countless worlds of the Chaos Sea, how many Underworld Kings are there? Too many to count, like the fish crossing a river or grains of sand in the sea, seemingly endless.
To evolve from an Ancient God to an Absolute God, the key is to integrate all your counterparts, becoming the singular, unique Underworld King from essence, concept, and foundation. Only then can you transform into an Absolute God.
Otherwise, it's impossible.
Of course.
This concerns the future and doesn't affect the present. Karon, squinting and pondering, muttered, "The Seventy-Two Pillars of Demon Gods, the Underworld's operation lacks a pillar, and it needs a compatible one. These Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars..."
They are the perfect support. Once mastered, the benefits will be immense. This is self-evident.
With a smile, Karon entered the small world boldly. He needed to take the Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars, carefully and without mishap.
When Lord Hades places the Seventy-Two Demon God Pillars in the Underworld, they will form a foundation. Initially weak, they can be nurtured over time. This isn't a problem!
Solving the main issue, having a foundation to nurture is vastly different from having nothing and searching aimlessly. This is crucial.
