章節 103: Chapter 103: Another Conversation with the Ancient Gods and the Uniqueness of the Ultimate Power
Pure.
Immaculate.
Unblemished.
A crystal of Ultimate Power with no traces of any laws; this was an extremely unique Ultimate Power crystal, unlike any Hades had ever seen. Whether obtained from Iapetus or his own Underworld father's avatar, each crystal had corresponding laws. However, this crystal had no such presence, appearing as a pure, flawless crystal, which was the most astonishing and perplexing aspect.
"This..."
Hades toyed with the Ultimate Power crystal, pondering. After a moment, he calmly said, "Hypnos, Thanatos."
Quickly, the gates of the Underworld opened, and the Twin Gods entered Elysium, kneeling respectfully. "Lord Hades!"
Hades said quietly, "Open the gate to the Realm of Darkness."
"Yes!"
Without questioning the reason, the twins respectfully released their divine power, opening the gate to the Realm of Darkness. Hades, with the Twin Gods, stepped through.
"Hades."
Erebus and Nyx were not surprised by Hades' arrival. When the gate to the Realm of Darkness opened, they knew Hades was coming.
Hades nodded calmly and, without wasting words, held out the special Ultimate Power crystal. "Erebus, Nyx, what's the story with this Ultimate Power crystal?"
"Hmm?"
Erebus took the crystal, and a look of shock appeared on his usually calm face. With a mix of surprise and confusion, he said, "A pure, flawless Ultimate Power crystal. This..."
Nyx frowned slightly and then explained, "Hades, you should be well aware of the essence of Ultimate Power, right?"
"Yes," Hades said quietly. "The Ultimate Power is essentially a higher level of divine power and law cultivation, allowing one's divine power and laws to be cultivated more efficiently and released at a higher intensity."
"Correct!"
Nyx nodded and continued, "In fact, whether it's the seventh sense, the eighth sense, or the gods' will and Ultimate Power, they all serve the same purpose."
"In essence," Erebus continued, "they are all means to better release one's inherent power. For humans, it's the small universe; for gods, it's divine power and laws."
"I understand," Hades nodded calmly, but he added, "However, the Ultimate Power is also a gateway. Without mastering it, one can never reach the level of an ancient god."
"Exactly!"
Erebus nodded again. "This is the uniqueness of the Ultimate Power. The gods' will, for example, is a power humans can perceive and comprehend, leading them to the divine level."
Nyx added, "For gods, they cannot comprehend Ultimate Power on their own. At the dawn of the mythical world, there were only eight Ultimate Power crystals. From these, eight ancient gods were born."
Erebus and Nyx explained clearly. In simple terms, the Ultimate Power was like a manual to break through the Great Luo Golden Immortal level. Without it, no matter how powerful one was, the world's limitations prevented further progress.
"In that case," Hades pondered, "if one transcends the mythical world and enters the Chaos Sea, wouldn't it be possible to reach the level of an ancient god without needing the Ultimate Power?"
"Yes!"
Erebus nodded. "That method is feasible. Once you reach the level of an ancient god, you can then retroactively master the Ultimate Power. However, apart from Kronos, no god has succeeded this way."
"Indeed."
Hades suddenly thought of this possibility and instantly guessed why his father, the supreme Titan King, could become an ancient god.
Was it solely because of his father's unparalleled talent and strength? In the original story, after Zeus handed everything over to Apollo, he also disappeared into the sky. Where did he go?
Now.
Hades understood. If the mythical world couldn't be broken through, then leave it! Head to the Chaos Sea. Without the world's constraints, breaking through would be much easier.
As for Kronos' success? Hades wasn't surprised. With the attention of the Earth Goddess and possibly the help of a Chaos God, success was inevitable.
"Hades," Erebus continued, "your discovery of this issue is good. Moreover, this Ultimate Power crystal is very pure. Theoretically, with it as the core, if you have a complete Ultimate Power, you could form your own unique Ultimate Power."
"However..."
Erebus paused to think and continued, "The main issue is that this Ultimate Power crystal shouldn't exist in this mythical world. That's the most puzzling part."
Nyx nodded. "Although there shouldn't be any problems, still..."
The ancient god couple hadn't expected such a situation. This Ultimate Power crystal was indeed too unique.
Hades said calmly, "I understand. I won't attempt anything rash. Mastering the Ultimate Power, if problematic, could be disastrous. Just as advancing from God-King to ancient god requires constraints, advancing from ancient god to Absolute God likely has similar limitations."
"Correct!"
Erebus nodded but then shook his head. "It's best not to inquire too much about certain matters, Hades. Knowing too much before reaching that level can be problematic."
"But," Nyx continued, "you can keep this Ultimate Power crystal. Once we've confirmed it's safe, you can use it."
"Alright."
Without hesitation, Hades left the Ultimate Power crystal with them.
