Myth: The Ruler of Spirituality - Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Chapter 14 Convergence

Translator: 549690339

Unlike minor supreme power and weak supreme power, starting from intermediate supreme power, deities could begin to make initial contact with the origin sea of the world.

supreme-rulerhood is the external manifestation of source power. Except for the world itself and great supreme power, no intelligent being can easily touch the source itself, as this essential force of the world would only assimilate their thinking gradually.

In the words of Laine’s previous life, it was “assimilation into the Dao.” Therefore, Chaos created supreme-rulerhood, and Laine formed the multifaceted crystal condensed from the source power. Only by adding a layer in between could the supreme-rulers exercise their authority freely.

However, just like a needle dropped into seawater, although the water cannot stop it, it’s also difficult for the needle to cause any harm to the water itself. Once supreme power stepped into intermediate supreme power, supreme-rulers were no longer as fearful of source power as if it were a fearsome beast, but instead could sense its rhythm to a certain degree, and even utilize this to deepen their understanding of their corresponding origin.

And it was this sensing ability that allowed them to faintly perceive that at this moment, on Mount Othrys, the current laws of the world were converging, and some supreme-ruler was influencing the arrangement of the rules.

Themis had walked the Earth for a thousand years, and more than one supreme-ruler had witnessed her presence. The supreme-rulers were well aware of what this supreme-rulerdess had done. But in their eyes, a being with intermediate supreme power daring to amend the law was utterly impossible. Yet, the tremors from the origin sea forced them to change their minds now.

Maybe this not-so-famous Ancient Titan supreme-ruler was not arrogantly overestimating herself, but truly had some special method. And no matter what method Themis employed, the supreme-rulers were very clear that as the laws of the present world were completed, her supreme-rulerhood of the Law would undoubtedly be elevated.

Great supreme power, there was no question about it. Whether they wished to admit it or not, the supreme-rulers could only accept that another supreme-ruler capable of influencing the direction of the world was about to be born.

“It’s Themis, she said last time that she wanted to establish laws for the present world. I thought she was joking, but I never expected it to be true,” one supreme-ruler said.

Upon the sea, the Primordial Sea supreme-rulerdess stood beside her husband, speaking with certainty.

“To establish laws for the present world… If she is successful, the ascended supreme-rulerhood of the Law would be strong enough to support her in reaching the peak of great supreme power.”

“It looks like another strong figure is about to emerge from our generation of Titans.”

Upon hearing this, Oceanus nodded. As the Ocean Deity Sovereign, he was happy to see his sister’s promotion come to fruition. Themis’s supreme-rulerhood meant she would not interfere in his and Pontus’s war; after all, as fellow Sea supreme-rulers, their conflict was deemed natural.

“Let’s set out, we shall go and congratulate her together.”

After watching for a while, Oceanus withdrew his gaze. Establishing laws for the present world was not a matter of one or two days, and there was enough time for him to reach Mount Othrys before it was completed.

“It’s been a long time since I returned, and I wonder how much the Mount of the supreme-rulers has changed from what it once was.”

In the Underworld, the supreme-ruler of the Sky, Aether, was surrounded by his brothers and sisters.

Unlike the supreme-rulers of the land above, the deities of the Underworld were few and weak. Aside from the supreme-rulerdess of Daylight’s relatively strong supreme-rulerhood, only the supreme-ruler of Destruction and the supreme-ruler of Doom had a chance of stepping into intermediate supreme power in the future.

In the eyes of outsiders, even though they weren’t strong, with the support of two Primordial supreme-rulers, their special status was recognized by all the supreme-rulers. But only they themselves knew that the Primordial supreme-rulers had never truly regarded them.

Even the Land of Eternal Night and the Realm of Lightness kept their distance from them.

It wasn’t that they were unable to enter, but like other supreme-rulers, they did not know themselves whether they could return once they went inside.

“Ker, I have warned you before not to go around causing trouble.”

“Last time you went to Mount of the supreme-rulers, Cronus let it go in consideration of Mother, but that doesn’t give you the reason to act rashly. No secret can be kept forever, and they will eventually learn the truth.”

“When that time comes, no one knows whether he will use us to establish the authority of the Divine King. After all, unlike his Titan brothers, no one would stand up for us.”

Looking at his brother, Aether felt some irritation, even though he knew that Ker had been somewhat influenced by his supreme-rulerhood.

“Is that so? If there really is such a day, let him come to me. You will likely be fine, since you’re just about to go and show your loyalty to him, aren’t you?”

With a cold laugh, Ker was ungrateful.

As a descendant of the Primordial supreme-rulers, even if his nominal parents did not acknowledge him, he still considered himself equal to the Ancient Titan supreme-rulers.

In fact, supreme-rulers like him were not uncommon in Chaos. Deities were immortal, but that didn’t mean they were particularly wise.

“You—”

Pontus, pointing a finger at his own brother, ultimately said nothing. Now, he completely understood why Hemera didn’t want to be with them, because, as she said, they were different.

The sky and daylight, their supreme-rulerhood itself dictated that they did not fit in with the other six deities.

“I will go to Mount of the supreme-rulers to congratulate the Master of Law. As for you, if you don’t want to go, then stay here.”

Shaking his head, Aether left with a flick of his sleeves.

He needed to consider his sister’s opinion. Perhaps compared to the Underworld, the stars were where they truly belonged.

“Should we attend as well, Father?”

Gazing up at the sky that Aether had on his mind, the Moon supreme-rulerdess Selene looked at Hyperion. Though she had been born hundreds of years ago, she still possessed weak supreme power.

Like all deities, she had an appearance mortals could hardly dream of reaching. And unlike in later times, supreme-rulers of this era, even those weak but beautiful like her, were not worried about their predicament.

On the contrary, many deities had expressed their affection to Selene, but she declined them all.

“Of course, Selene. Laine shamelessly stole the concept of Moon, making you so weak. But when I tried to create a ‘Land of Eternal Night’ in the Underworld, I never succeeded.”

“I don’t know how he did it, but as the supreme-rulerdess of Justice and Law, your aunt will uphold justice for you.”

Selene fell silent, she had heard many times from her father about that supreme-ruler who resided in the Underworld.

His seizure of the concept of Moon stemmed from a pact with Mother Earth and the Titans; she doubted her aunt would break her supreme-rulerhood for her father. Still, considering her own power, she resigned herself to her fate.

The current family of the Sun supreme-ruler was different from before. The eldest son and daughter both had feeble supreme power, while the once subordinate supreme-rulerdess of Dawn was stronger than her siblings.

Helios’s weakness was at least because he had no opportunity to revolve the sun to enhance his supreme power, but his supreme-rulerhood was still powerful. But Selene, she did not want to remain weak forever.

‘Maybe I can find a powerful entity to rely on. If it weren’t for the dispute between my father and the Divine King, he could have been a good choice.’

Silently thinking, Selene followed her father, flying towards the center of the earth.

At the same time, similar scenes were taking place in many locations.

The higher the Divine Power Level of a supreme-ruler, the bigger the gap between levels. A powerful supreme-ruler with the potential of level 18 or 19, even in later times, would be an influential existence in Chaos.

Regardless of their motives, whether their relations were friendly or not, supreme-rulers left their Divine Palaces one after another, flying towards Mount Othrys.

And so, on this day, in the 1500th year of the supreme-ruler-King Era established by Cronus himself, the supreme-rulers converged.
