Mythology: Spiritual Ruler

Chapter 59: Land of Eternal Night



"Then let's go."

Lian said under the shining of the dark moon.

Since he had made a decision, he didn't plan to waste any more time.

But before leaving, Ryan looked to the west.

In that direction, there was a very obvious breath that tried to hide itself.

"Why, isn't that your man?"

"No, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be sent by Kronos."

Feeling the invisible airflow that he thought was well hidden under the shining of the dark moon, Ryan felt a little funny.

One of the four wind gods, which one is still to be determined, but judging from the breath, it is likely to be Zephyros, the god of the west wind who was rejected last time.

The other party has been here for a long time, but Ryan had been staying in the spirit world before, so he ignored him. But whether it is the god of the west wind or not, Ryan actually doesn't quite understand why the other party dared to "secretly" monitor him and a primitive god.

Even Ryan, unless he hides in history, will be faintly sensed by Gaia when he sets foot in the underworld or the earth. The concealment of the wind god is more of a physical change. It is okay to deceive other gods, but Ryan and the original gods can see his existence at a glance.

"Do you want me to deal with him?"

Nix said casually on the side.

She was not interested in why Kronos sent people to monitor the movements of the underworld moon, but the other party dared to stay after seeing her, which was a provocation to her authority.

"No need, I can probably guess what he is here for."

Shaking his head, Ryan said lightly:

"Kronos wants to attack the starry sky, but I also have several star gods under my command. He probably has the idea of ​​stopping me in advance if I have any signs of intervening in the dispute. After all, I am not a Titan god, and he does not need to take care of his brothers."

"But since he wants to know where I am, let's show him. Let's go. If this guy is still here when I come back, it won't be too late to deal with him."

Ignoring the existence of Zephyros, Ryan didn't mind him reporting to the God King. But if he dares to come again later, that's another matter.

"Then let's go."

Nodding indifferently, Nyx walked towards the edge of the underworld.

If the existence of the God of the West Wind hadn't jumped in front of her, Nyx would not even think of looking at it. It doesn't matter to her whether she solves it or ignores it.

Crossing the gray plains and passing the banks of the Styx River, under the guidance of Lady Night, Ryan came to the land of eternal night for the first time.

At the beginning of creation, darkness enveloped everything and eternal night covered the sky, but when the true god of the sky was born, both sank under the earth, between the abyss and the stratum.

Later, because of the interweaving of the power of the four primitive ancient gods, the underworld was born. At the edge of the underworld is the realm of eternal night and darkness, which is why the status of [Underworld Moon] is very high in the underworld, and Hecate, who was originally on the trajectory, even became the sub-king of the underworld.

Because the difference between the size of the underworld is actually the range covered by the light of the underworld moon. Where there is light, it is the underworld. Where there is no light, it is darkness and eternal night. Unlike the ground, although the underworld will also expand with the increase of the world's source power, its expansion is not the growth of the land, but the boundary of the light of [Underworld Moon].

Therefore, the speed of expansion of the underworld in this world is actually faster than the earth on the ground. Because the current Pluto is the manifestation of the spirit world, its "light" is emitted by the seven spiritual moons in turn, which is much stronger than the original trajectory.

It can be said that if Ryan does not consider the "privatization of public property", in fact, under the arrangement of the spirit world, the overall origin of Chaos has risen, but at present, this rise is only reflected in the expansion of the world area.

"Is this the Land of Eternal Night?"

Following Nyx, Ryan crossed the boundary between light and night. It was dark in front of his eyes for a moment, but the next moment, the surroundings became bright again.

Unlike Ryan's imagination, although there is only [night] in the Land of Eternal Night, it is not without light.

Although the source cannot be found, Ryan can clearly distinguish that the light of the Land of Eternal Night is the light of the celestial bodies in the night sky, even including the illusory stars hung by Ryan, their starlight can also shine here.

This is the realm of the ancient god of creation. The alternation of day and night in the present world is nothing more than the ebb and flow of the external power here. After all, night existed long before the birth of the sun.

Therefore, it is not the rising and falling of the sun that determines day and night, but the existence of the night that divides black and white.

"The gods say that the Land of Eternal Night is the skirt of the goddess of night, and the night lady weaves the skirt with secrets, and the stars are her embellishment."

"Now it seems that the rumors are somewhat true."

Admiring this mysterious scenery that he had never seen before, Ryan couldn't help but exclaimed sincerely.

"Then you will be disappointed. There will be nothing else here except the night."

The tone is the same as always, but this time, Nyx's heart moved slightly.

She plans to find out later who said "the skirt of the goddess of night" first.

The gods may not know that in the field of fate, her body is the symbol of [destiny], and the field that the mother of night is best at is [doom].

Walking forward and strolling in the Land of Eternal Night, Ryan felt a sense of peace from the heart. In his eyes, this was a quiet and beautiful garden. The roadside was filled with exotic flowers and plants that were rarely seen in the outside world. Except for the dim sky, it was no different from the ground.

Even in addition to plants, there are many lives hidden in the night. Ryan can feel that it is the soul that once came from his hand.

In the land of eternal night, those strange lives seem to have become god-like existences. They exude different powers such as [fear], [silence], and [doom], and even a little [chaos] is mixed in.

The former is the manifestation of the authority of Lady Night, and the latter is the remnant of the beginning of creation.

Without the guidance of Nyx, any person or god who enters the land of eternal night will never see a trace of light. They can only grope forward in the night, and then be turned into fertilizer by flowers and plants that look normal but actually don’t know what is inside, or be devoured by the wandering lives here.

Even if they are gods, they may not die, but eternal sleep is no different from death. Every bit of divine power they get from their priesthood will be absorbed, and then they will never wake up again.

I don’t know how long I have been walking, but Ryan can feel that the chaos all around is slowly decreasing until it disappears completely, and the power of the night is unprecedentedly strong. Even gradually, Ryan felt the breath closer to the world.

That is [Fate and Cause], [Inevitable Destiny] and [Natural Order].

The three-phase incarnation of Lady Night, or rather, the three-phase incarnation of Chaos in the world. Among the primitive gods, Night was born last, but it also carries more preferences of the world.

Until a certain moment, Nyx, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.

"We're here." She said.

"We're here?"

Confused, Ryan asked, "What about the 'embryo of the god of sleep' you mentioned?"

"Hey, isn't it there?"

Pouting, Nyx pointed to the front.

Ryan looked over. There, in the middle of the purple grass, a huge white 'sleeping flower' was swaying slowly.

The embryo of the god of sleep is not a giant cocoon, nor does it have any traces of flesh and blood.

A flower is all it has.
