446 The Elemental Emperor's Path to Godhood
While the Elemental Emperor Asaph. Augustus is very great and powerful, but the set of Heavenly Mandate ornaments he made is not very eye-catching.
According to Gordon's idea, such a great arcanist whose strength is comparable to that of a god must have to be an artifact, or a quasi-artifact-level item. But after some research, he found that this set of Heavenly Mandate Ornaments did not have any power against the sky. Even that ability to predict danger is sometimes ineffective, similar to the function of a mid-to-high-level prophecy spell.
I don't know the elemental emperor Asaph. Augustus, what is the use of making this set of Mandate of Heaven ornaments.
Ion, the god of knowledge, did not directly explain to Gordon the role of this set of Destiny ornaments. He just said as if he were talking to himself, "Asaph. Augustus was a genius, a strong man, a figure who had reached the pinnacle of mastery of arcane power. Like many other mortals who have reached the pinnacle of their magnitude, Asaph. Augustus was also figuring out how to become a god. ”
In the multiverse of the world of Telos, there are several ways for the gods to come from.
The first type of gods are a group of gods who have experienced the war against the old rulers in the Chaos Era's creation war. Ion, the god of knowledge, is one of them. He may not be the most powerful of the gods, but he is definitely one of the oldest. These gods, born from the battle of creation, are known as the primordial gods.
The second type of gods is after the social activities of the various races in the world of Telos became more frequent and larger. The power of the rules that is generated, the gods that are born. For example, Woking, the god of wealth and commerce, Eracis, the god of civilization, Kord, the patron god of warriors, and so on. all fall into this column. In addition, it is not uncommon for beings such as Bahamut, who are primordial gods, but also master the priesthood of glory and guardianship.
The third category is the high-ranking gods who are in charge of more priesthoods and have stronger divine power. For various reasons, he gave away a part of his priesthood and gave it to a mortal. It is then promoted to the rank of a lower god. It's like a company is large, and the boss can't be busy alone, so he has to recruit employees. And those mortals who have been promoted to the lower gods may even take the place of their masters in the future. Become a superior god.
Of course. This kind of promotion and salary increase, winning Bai Fumei, and reaching the pinnacle of life is an absolute small probability event.
For many mortals who are so powerful that they can already rival the gods, it is not an alternative path to become gods by hugging the thighs of another god and becoming a cow or a horse. They will choose a more violent method: God Slayer. Snatch the other party's divine power and shape your own godhead.
Although the probability of success is very small. But in history, it is not without success. And the process of those mortals becoming gods can only be described by the three words "Long Aotian".
But the Elemental Emperor Asaph. Augustus, but it must be described as a powerful person who is not enough to use the quadratic of Long Aotian. At that time, the Magic Empire of Netherduran was so powerful that it didn't take the gods seriously. In the various realm battles, there are also many gods who have died by the Great Arcanist of the Empire. Therefore, if the Elemental Emperor wants to become a god, he will definitely not choose to be loyal to a certain god, be promoted to a secondary god, and then slowly work hard to improve his godhead.
Moreover, he did not embark on the path of God Butcher.
Although it was not very difficult to defeat a god with weak divine power with the ability of the Elemental Emperor, he did not make a move. There was no other reason, because the Elemental Emperor looked down on the priesthood of those gods.
Gods, to put it bluntly, are powerful mortals who have mastered the power of certain rules. Or, to put it another way, the gods can be called the product of the personification of the power of rules.
Therefore, every deity, whether strong or weak in divine power, is often affected by the power of the rules contained in the priesthood he controls.
For example, Woking, the goddess of wealth and business, sometimes gives the impression of a businessman who cares about everything. Ion, the god of knowledge, is a well-mannered scholar who looks at problems and solves them in a rational and objective way. And Kord, who is admired by many warriors, is the image of "fighting and fighting" all day long.
Asaph. Augustus has studied many texts, and those mortals who have become gods will always be affected by the power of the rules in the priesthood for a long or short time, and then their personalities will change.
And this extremely arrogant elemental emperor didn't want the same thing to happen to him.
Asaph. Augustus is Asaph. Augustus. His personality is unique and perfect, and he should not change or lose himself in order to gain divine power. Because if this kind of thing really happened, there might be one more powerful god in the world, but one less named Asaph. The people of Augustus.
The Elemental Emperor was so proud that he didn't want to be swayed by anything—not even the power of the rules that everyone craved.
Asaph. Augustus had to master the power of the rules, not be changed by the power of the rules.
If you want to control the power of the rules, but you don't want to go down the old path, then Asaph. Augustus's path to godhood naturally required a lot of thought.
However, he is worthy of being the founding emperor of the Magic Empire of Netherduran, and is known as the great man of all arcane masters. Asaph. The method that Augustus came up with was to create a kind of rule power by himself, and control it, and then become a god.
Such a crazy and genius idea could probably only be imagined by this Elemental Emperor.
And Asaph. The power of the rules chosen by Augustus is "fate".
Gordon listened to Ion's story, and could hardly suppress the surging emotions in his heart. Although as the most powerful and most famous Grand Arcanist in the Magic Empire of Netherduran, Asaph . Augustus' various stories and even rural rumors are now talked about by spellcasters, but this is the first time Gordon has heard of the secret of the Elemental Emperor's path to godhood.
"Creating the power of rules by yourself is something that no one has ever done. What's more, what the Elemental Emperor chose was actually the power of 'fate'. Gordon exclaimed, "This is a power that even the gods can't grasp. ”
"You're right, young man." Eonjo nodded. "As I said earlier, even the gods cannot control the power of 'fate'. The power of rules is orderly and controllable. Fate, on the other hand, is chaotic, random, and intangible. This is probably the closest thing to the truth of the multiverse. To add to this, we don't even know if 'fate' is a force or another form of existence. Even gods can't touch fate. Perhaps only the creation of this multiverse being, the god of God, can control fate. ”
"Even so, what about the fate of God?" Gordon asked.
However, this person and one god realized that if the discussion continued, I am afraid that it would become a metaphysical problem. So they all stopped the topic of "fate" and returned to the more practical question: did the Elemental Emperor's unique path to godhood succeed?
"Since it has been nearly a thousand years since the destruction of the Magic Empire of Netherduran, and no god in charge of the priesthood of 'destiny' has appeared, Asaph. Augustus should have failed. Gordon said.
"No, young man. Your statement is not accurate. The God of Knowledge shook his fingers, "All we can say is Asaph. Augustus had not yet succeeded. ”
"Could it be that the Elemental Emperor is still alive?" Gordon was surprised. Since the rise of Neterduran from a small city-state and the establishment of a large empire, which lasted for two thousand years, then suddenly collapsed and destroyed. So far, 3,000 years have passed. Could it be that the Elemental Emperor is already three thousand years old? That's older than many of the gods. Because although gods theoretically have infinite life, they can still be killed and fallen.
There are very few primordial gods like Ion.
It is the god of magic who is powerful and is believed by most spellcasters, and is in charge of the magic web, and is now in his third generation. Ms. Mistra's predecessor was a man.
"I'm not sure about that." It seems that the god of omniscient knowledge also knows things - such as the Elemental Emperor Asaph. The condition of Augustus.
"From what I've gathered, Asaph. In order to achieve his goal of creating a zào and controlling the power of destiny and being promoted to the god of fate, Augustus carried out an extremely large, complex, subtle, far-reaching, and unheard of reality. I only know one of the contents of the real yàn, which has something to do with the fate of this set of four pieces. But no one - or God knows exactly what it is. After the abdication of the Elemental Emperor, he has been in a state of seclusion, but when the empire he founded with his own hands suddenly collapsed from its peak, he never showed up again. It is also because of this that many historians speculate that he is dead. But I don't believe that a man who has reached the pinnacle of power, and even surpassed many gods, would die so quietly. ”
"Even Biasa. Augustus was a mage ten times weaker, and he also had many means to prolong his life. ”
"So you mean, Asaph. Although Augustus did not succeed, he is still alive and still studying his path to godhood in some unknown place? ”
"Yes. I'm very interested in the results of the Elemental Emperor's research. Although I am a god, I still have a sense of crisis. Well, you know, this multiverse, there's going to be big things going on. ”
"So having said all this, what is the purpose of you giving me the Mandate of Heaven, and what do you want me to do?"
Ionn smiled lightly, "Mount Wesula was once Asaph. A palace built by Augustus before his abdication in his later years. I have a lot of evidence that the palace in the mountains contains secrets about his path to godhood. I hope that you will go into the mountain with the Mandate of Heaven, investigate it properly, and tell me the information you have obtained. (To be continued......)
