Baldr put away the transforming Wheel of Light and the Devouring Spear at the same time, glanced at the body of the God-King Cronus, which was still mostly intact, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
The remains of a god-king who broke through the established order have great uses. Even simply burying them in the divine realm would be enough to bring about earth-shattering changes to the entire divine realm.
Even a small portion of its flesh and blood could be used to feed the Four Divine Beasts, enough to enable them to evolve.
He looked up at the Ancient One and said, "Thank you!"
Having received so much help, Bader had become too lazy to talk about repaying it; he simply kept it in his heart, for great kindness needs no words of thanks.
Seeing Baldr about to leave, the Ancient One suddenly spoke.
"Your current time law is too strong, so don't use it to advance."
Badr paused, "Why?"
He only had a vague feeling that he couldn't use non-exclusive attributes to advance, otherwise something bad would happen in the future, but he didn't know exactly what it was.
Now, it seems that Gu Yi is going to tell him.
"Do you know how to advance to the single-universe level?"
This question left Baldr speechless. As far as he knew, even in the Marvel universe, which had many single-universe-level or even higher powerhouses, single-universe-level powerhouses seemed to be either born that way, like the Celestials, or they were promoted in ancient times. As for how they were promoted, only God knew.
"How do I get promoted?" If you don't understand, just ask. There are many people in this world who are stronger than the Ancient One, but there are probably very few who know more about love than the Ancient One.
"The Primal!" the Ancient One uttered calmly.
"Original?"
"Only by sublimating one's own power into the primordial state can one be qualified to advance to the single-universe level."
Bader frowned: "How do we elevate it?"
"The beginning is the very beginning!"
After saying just that one sentence, the Ancient One disappeared from the spot.
Badr was left behind, remaining where he was, lost in thought for a long time.
The word "original" or "first" reminded Bader of the earliest gods in Greek mythology.
Chaos is a naturally single-universe entity.
The five primordial gods must have been promoted later in life.
In some aspects, he is even stronger than the five great gods. 5.3 Uranus, the sky god, has never been able to ascend to the status of a primordial god. Is it because he lacks the aptitude? Of course not!
The only difference between Uranus, the god of the sky, and the five primordial gods is that Uranus was born much later.
Considering that the Celestials are a terrifying race born on a single universe level, they need to wait hundreds of millions of years on a planet before they can be born.
Is it for absorbing energy? Could the energy of a mere planet, even accumulated over hundreds of millions of years, really give birth to a single-universe-level celestial group as easily as creating a star or kneading a dumpling?
"At the very beginning of the world's creation, the initial power, and perhaps the later power, was... So, only shortly after the world's birth, would a peculiar power, perhaps what could be called primordial power, be born. Only by using this power can one advance to the single-universe level?"
The Celestials reside on the planet not to absorb energy, but to accumulate the scarce primordial energy amidst the repeated reenactments and destructions of the world.
At that moment, Badr thought of something he had always been interested in: the power of light belonging to the first goddess of light in Greek mythology.
The first Goddess of Light wasn't particularly strong, otherwise she wouldn't have been so easily defeated by the future twelve Olympian gods. Yet, a feeling kept driving Baldr to seek that power.
Perhaps it's because the other person possesses a small amount of primordial energy within them?
Chapter 106 Random Search World
Boom!
The entire divine realm was shaken.
In the upper realm of the gods, Hera and Hela simultaneously looked up in the same direction.
With a thud, the heavy object fell to the ground.
Upon seeing the dead bodies, Hera and Hela's expressions changed simultaneously.
Hela was excited. As the goddess of death, she was born with a love for killing and death. The 'death' of a god-king might help her to advance her laws of death further.
As for Hera, it's much more complicated.
There was joy that the scumbag father was finally gone, but there was also disappointment. Of course, it wasn't because of any damn father-daughter relationship. She was devoured by her scumbag father at birth, so what kind of father-daughter relationship could there be?
The reason for my disappointment is that my scumbag father is dead, but I didn't kill him myself.
"Just because this guy is dead doesn't mean you've lost the chance to kill your scumbag father with your own hands."
"?" Hera looked at Baldr curiously: "What do you mean?"
“Different events trigger different parallel timelines. In your world, the disappearance of the God-King is a momentous event that will inevitably cause changes in the timeline. In order to bring everything back on track, either a God-King from another timeline will be moved to that timeline, or the one who appears here, 23, will not be the God-King Cronus from the normal timeline. For example, Cronus from the previous second, or Cronus from the next second.”
The wisdom of the gods made Hera instantly understand Baldr's meaning.
"I see. If I have the chance, I'd still prefer to kill that guy with my own hands!"
"By the way, when are you taking me back next time?"
Badr summoned the portal, and his expression changed to astonishment in the next moment.
On the gate, the vortex that symbolized the Greek world had turned gray and was now locked.
The opening of the interdimensional portal is not restricted by the other world; otherwise, a powerful world would immediately and strongly reject any incoming entity.
A more plausible explanation for this situation is that the other world has been destroyed, or its coordinates can no longer be found.
"Those three super-gods sensed Kronos's departure, guessed that I would invade again, so they used some means to hide the entire world? Or did they run away with the world?"
This guess is indeed a bit outrageous, but it seems to be the only guess that fits reality.
Badr voiced his guess, and Hera's expression immediately became incredibly complex, a mixture of shock, absurdity, and utter disbelief. "How could this be?!"
"Puff, puff, puff..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The sound of flesh being torn apart, accompanied by eerie laughter, drew Hera and Baldr's attention.
Hela, her face contorted with wild, excited laughter, brandished the Sword of Death and unleashed a flurry of stabbing attacks on Cronus's corpse.
This insane scene made Bader's face twitch.
Even Hera, who loathed her scumbag father to the extreme, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of her mouth.
"Stop, Hela!"
Hela frowned and stopped: "He's already dead, why won't you let me make use of this trash?"
"If you want to use it and then use it again, let me study this body first."
"Research? Is there anything in this corpse that might interest you?"
Badr nodded silently. If his guess was correct, the first god of light in Greek mythology possessed a certain 'primordial' quality.
That doesn't make sense; it doesn't exist in Cronus, who was a brother and sister of the first God of Light.
Strangely, when Baldr previously activated his pseudo-omniscient and omnipotent authority, he did not find the so-called 'original' within this guy.
He plans to study it carefully and figure out the true nature of the 'original'.
However, even after studying Cronus's corpse several times and even expending a great deal of energy to activate his pseudo-omniscience and omnipotence for more than ten minutes, Baldr still couldn't find any trace of the so-called primordial origin.
After a moment of contemplation, Baldr suddenly took out the Wheel of Light and began to activate the Time Godhood that had just been embedded within it.
The power of time is drawn into Cronus's body.
Baldr had no intention of resurrecting the guy, but rather of peering into and retracing Cronus's memories.
Soon, Cronus's memories began to surface.
clap clap clap...
Give birth, then eat the baby!
clap clap clap...
He unleashed the majesty of a divine king, slaughtering all living beings.
clap clap clap...
He sat on the throne, lost in thought.
A series of dark lines appeared on Badr's brow. Very good, as expected of Greek mythology. Even if it is not as famously absurd as Zeus and Poseidon, absurdity is also an instinct. More than 70% of the time, it is all about various kinds of sex.
Skipping over the numerous unspeakable memories of sex, let's begin to trace back to Cronus's earliest memories.
With Gaia's help, he defeated Uranus and became the king of the gods.
Moving forward, striving and becoming stronger, Cronus was once a passionate young man before becoming the King of Gods.
Further back, the twelve Titans were born.
Uranus and Gaia united to give birth to the first Titan, Oceanus, who symbolized cycles. From then on, the rivers and oceans that originated from Chaos began to flow.
Because he held the original authority, a ray of light fell upon Oceanus, and he became the primordial god of the oceans and rivers.
Then came the second, the third...
Each of them was the original deity. Because of their birth, the world changed, and they received the blessing of the first light, becoming the original gods.
Until the twelfth Titan, Cronus was born.
He was born to control time, but was not the original god of time and could not receive the baptism of the original light. Therefore, in order to compensate Him, the world gave Him qualifications that surpassed those of 800 other Titans. He was born powerful and quickly surpassed the other Titans one by one, eventually ascending to the throne of the King of Gods.
That concludes my memory.
Baldr stroked his chin: "The first few gods were baptized by the primordial light, but as time went on, it was clear that the primordial light became weaker and weaker. Cronus, the last one, was not even baptized by the primordial light."
"So, this is what the original means. Only the original can receive the baptism of the primordial light, and the total amount is limited. This is also why the twelve Titans could not advance to the primordial gods. The primordial light obtained by the five primordial gods is the greatest primordial light."
"Judging from the characteristics of the Celestials, the ordinary world should also have a primordial one. Since there are no gods in the ordinary world, the primordial baptism should befall special things."
"So can I understand that the most historical and unique things in the world most likely possess the original essence?"
Badr's gaze shifted towards the interdimensional gate.
The worlds that Badr communicates with through the interdimensional gate are, for the present Badr, over 90% of them are low-level worlds that are of little use. But now, Badr has suddenly discovered the significance of the existence of these low-level worlds.
"Only through experimentation can truth be revealed!"
