Chapter 21 Return Gift

".Thank you for your gift."

It seemed that he did not hear the implication of Ryan's words, and the expression of the Lord of Darkness did not change. He just paused and reached out to take the light spot in Ryan's hand.

Different from the myths of later generations, when the spiritual lord is born, there will be no life in this world without his permission. Because everything that has a soul must have a spirit, and anything that has a spirit does not need to have a soul, so the soul is contained in the spirit.

In the original trajectory, even without the help of Iapitus, the Lord of Souls, natural spirits like nymphs could still be born in the world. But now without Ryan's permission, only the gods can become exceptions.

God is different after all. The structure of the gods is very strange, and Ryan doesn't quite understand its inner mysteries.

"What about mine?"

Ms. Ye, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly spoke.

Ryan was a little surprised. He thought the couple had a close relationship, after all, there had never been a tragedy like Gaia's between them.

"Don't look at me like that," Nyx noticed Ryan's surprise, and she explained with some dissatisfaction: "He and I are not husband and wife. Those divine sons are the offspring of our bodies."

"I thought the 'prophet' knew everything -"

Ryan was really surprised this time. Whether it is the myths of later generations or the history witnessed by Ryan in this life, Lady Ye rarely appears in the world. His so-called understanding of Nyx was more of a guess.

No wonder the two gods of the dark night don't seem to care much about their own children, and they have never received the treatment that the ancient gods deserved. It turns out that in their view, these so-called 'descendants' are just the products of the original being inspired by the world.

Ryan, who witnessed the process of personification of the original gods with his own eyes, knew very well that for the ancient gods who already had self-awareness, the ontology and themselves were really not equated.

This is why even though Ryan often talks about Ananke, he never cares about it.

The three phases of ontology and personal incarnation cannot be equated. Nyx can indeed mobilize the power of destiny, but she herself cannot actually see the complete destiny.

"I'm really sorry, this was my oversight." Ignoring Nyx's sarcasm, Ryan used his spiritual power to condense thousands more soul embryos.

He caused the embryos to drift toward Lady Night, but in addition, they had a glowing bauble in their midst.

Through the changing veil, Nyx seemed to tug at the corner of her mouth, but she still reached out and took it.

"Never forget to snatch it from the hands of Chaos," Ms. Ye said again, looking nothing like the original ancient god: "You are really good at running a house."

"There is no other way. As long as the world respects the sovereignty of the gods over the priesthood, I will not make such a move."

Ryan did not shy away from his purpose. He wanted to occupy the origin of some stars in front of the star gods.

But this one was a bit special, so he hoped that Ms. Ye could hang it up herself.

"The current Earth Mother, the Sea God, the future Sun God, and even the [Moon] Priesthood that I once controlled. Whenever I see them torn apart by the power of the world in the future, I will worry about escaping the control of the world. "

"Fortunately, I succeeded."

Physical stars will still be born, but the concept of them being "stars" will be eliminated and they will become luminous celestial bodies corresponding to Koos, the god of lightless celestial bodies.

In the present, starlight is not much different from pure light, but in the future, Ryan himself will give them a difference.

"But I can hang it up later." Ms. Ye said bluntly: "As long as the corresponding god is born, your theft will not be effective."

"Yes, if that's what you're going to do, then so be it."

Ryan spread his hands and didn't care.

Chaos's "uncertain fate" is already completely in the spiritual world. Not to mention the origin of fate absorbed during the birth process, the spiritual world and even Ryan itself are products that should not appear in fate.

So if Nyx wants to wait for the corresponding god to be born, she probably won't be able to wait until the world is destroyed.

"snort!"

Nyx was a little angry, and she didn't need to hide her emotions.

On the side, the Lord of Darkness laughed a little, but he still tried to persuade him:

"Okay, Nyx, since you're still here, I think your thoughts and mine should be the same."

"Let's get to the point, Lord of the Spirit World. We want to know how you seize the source of power from the hands of the world."

No god wants to be controlled, it's just that they didn't know this option existed before. But Ryan's success undoubtedly allowed them to see the direction, which is why Nyx and Erebus are still here.

They also want to follow suit and become gods beyond the control of the world.

"It's very simple." Faced with the Dark Lord's inquiry, Ryan said without any secrets:

"Have an origin beyond the control of the world, connect it with time, space and destiny, and throw yourself into it as the first material, and the world is born."

The void that carries the world, the matter and spirituality that make up all things, plus destiny, these are the four pillars of the world.

The body of a god can replace spirituality and matter to a certain extent, which is also the reason why the spiritual world has been successfully opened.

"The question is, how did you obtain the 'origin beyond the control of the world'?"

Nicks was very dissatisfied with Ryan's explanation. What he said was complete nonsense, like "three steps to lock an elephant in the refrigerator."

If she had such an origin, why would she ask him?

"Then I have no choice. This is innate. I was born earlier than you, you know this."

Faced with Ms. Ye's questioning, Ryan smiled and shook his head: "Why do you think that as the first ancient god, my power is so weak?"

"It can't be because the world doesn't like me, then why did it give birth to me?"

Nyx was silent. She hadn't thought about this question before. But now she also reacted. In Chaos, the strong may not be old, but the old ones are mostly strong.

Erebus was also a little disappointed. If this is only related to the time of birth, then he really has no solution.

Just like the original gods have a part of the world as their body, they can freely choose the degree of personification, but the new gods later can't do this anyway.

So if Ryan's specialness is also because he was born early enough, then Erebus can only accept it.

"It seems that we will return empty-handed today."

Erebus sighed, he didn't intend to pester.

After all, when Ryan successfully opened up the spiritual world, the other party was destined to become an existence equal to him. With the degree of personification of Erebus, he exists in the form of his original body most of the time, so he doesn't want to do anything to Ryan.

After all, Ryan didn't steal the origin of darkness. Chaos belongs to everyone, and his Erebus is his own. This matter has nothing to do with him.

Even before leaving, he planned to give a gift to ease his blocking behavior.

"Your Highness Ryan, I'm sorry for disturbing you today. To express my apology, I also have a gift for you."

Erebus stretched out his hand and a ball of black mist appeared in his hand.

The black mist rolled and changed, but in the hands of the dark master, it had no possibility of escaping control.

Ryan felt vaguely that this seemed to be an extreme emotion.

"These are the negative emotions of my nephew. They shook the origin of the world and made me give birth to many offspring for this."

"I was still worrying about how to deal with them before, now, it's yours."

Taking the black mist, Ryan felt the most intense emotion before the God King lost his position.

This is not just negative emotion, but also the hatred of the father for the son, and the murderous intention of the king for the rebellion. Simple emotion is not terrible, but when it is born at the moment when the God King changes his master, it becomes even more powerful.

This kind of emotional power is really useless to the Dark Lord. Maybe his children can use it, but Erebus obviously doesn't really regard them as his own children.

As for Ryan, when the spirit world transforms these emotions, he can use them to forge a divine weapon or derive a monster that can threaten the true God. When facing the twelve Titans, they may have a different effect.

"Thank you for your return gift." Putting away the black mist, Ryan smiled and said, "It's really a pleasant meeting."

"Huh!"

In response, Ms. Ye snorted coldly, and the Dark Lord smiled in response. In any case, this conflict that could have broken out ended peacefully in the end.
