Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Secrets of the Gods
The conversation with Jelf was not for nothing, and he was very clear about the speculation of the gods, and as one of the few old antiques in this world, few of them knew more about the gods than him.
But after all, it was in the clouds, and if he wanted to know the truth of the gods, Heaton still needed to go to the Star Spirit Realm and ask the Star Spirit King face to face.
But fortunately, Jelf's words made Heaton, who should have reached the end of the magic road, see further hope again.
In another five years, the [Shangri-La] in Heaton's hand was activated, and he came to the Star Spirit Realm alone.
As soon as he entered the Star Spirit Realm, Heaton's whole body was numb with the terrifying and vast gaze, but this feeling was not hostile, Heaton knew that this feeling of being locked was only because his intuition was too high, but it could be seen that the Star Spirit King was powerful.
"Is that the rule?"
"Little friend, welcome to the Star Spirit Realm!"
The Star Spirit King's huge star body quickly shrank and solidified, became a normal size, and came to Heaton's side.
"Do you know why I'm here?"
"Naturally, I'm just here to find that last step."
"Can you tell me about this world, this world?"
"As you wish."
In a few years, Heaton has long ceased to be in the state of blindly pursuing the gods before, and he has penetrated the power of time to an extremely profound point, but he has found that he has not been able to take the last step, which is the so-called becoming a god!
He knew that if he wanted to go further, he would need to ask the true so-called god, the Star Spirit King, for advice.
As Jelf said before, the end of the demon path is the rules, and the gods are the embodiment of the rules, but this statement is not accurate, and the Star Spirit King carefully explained the difference between rules and magic for Heaton.
That's pure!
The purity of the application of the power of the demon, whether it is magic, the devil fruit or the ability of the stand-in, is the embodiment of the rule side, the magic about time in the world of the fairy tail is varied, this is the projection of the rules of time in reality, the ancient god [Chronos] is called the god of time, it can be said that he defines time, and it can also be said that he is the embodiment of time.
Just like the saying that there was a chicken or an egg, it is impossible to discuss whether this world has the definition of time or the god of time [Chronos], but there is one point, [Chronos] was not born out of thin air, whether it is the birth of the world, or the growth from a human to a god, there is a process of time birth.
Magic is the manifestation of rules in this world, it can also be said to be a projection, and the extraordinary power of each world can be said to be a projection of rules, but in different forms.
In other words, both the transcendent nature of reason and the power of reality depend on rules for their existence, which is the origin of the operation of the world and the survival of all worlds.
But whether it is a Devil Fruit, a stand-in, or magic, it is only a projection of the rules of the world, not the rules themselves, even if Heaton has mastered more time magic and played with the various characteristics of time into flowers, he has never jumped out of the shackles of the world, transforming time magic, time stand-in ability, and the power of time in Devil Fruit into the power of rules.
That is to say, even if he experiences one world after another, Heaton has only one ability after another, and whether quantitative change can cause qualitative change is not to mention that this process is extremely difficult.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be too easy to control the rules, turn into rules, and easily control the world?
If there is no Star Spirit King, the only remaining god in this world, Heaton doesn't know when he will be able to figure out the opportunity to take a closer step, and no matter how many worlds he experiences, it will only increase his strength to the upper limit of the world, not break through.
"So how do you make yourself pure?"
The Star Spirit King didn't answer Heaton's question, but just looked at Heaton for a long time before shaking his head.
"I'm not you, how can I know where your path is, even if [Chronos] still exists, I can't guide you, just tell you what the gods or rules are, just like I do."
Pause, Star Spirit
Wang continued.
"I don't think it's hard for you to get to this point, and I don't think it's hard to understand the purity of your own path, and although I can't give you some pointers, I can tell you a little bit about the past of the gods."
Hearing that the Star Spirit King could not point out the path to godhood, Heaton was not disappointed, he was not a person who suffered from gains and losses, and he clearly understood that the road had to be walked by himself.
"The gods are immortal, but the life of the world has an end."
As soon as the Star Spirit King spoke, he spoke in astonishment.
"You're an outsider, not a member of this world, and I don't know how many worlds you've seen before, but I think you should know that the world doesn't work in stone."
Heaton nodded.
"Aslant is a well-established world with rules that has been born for hundreds of thousands of years."
Heaton frowned slightly, and the Star Spirit King saw his doubts: "It's been a long time, although I haven't seen other worlds, but I know from other gods that many worlds are born and even lack rules, even gods can't be born, what's more, they can't even give birth to life, hundreds of thousands of years of worlds are already very old worlds, and it's rare for most worlds to have a lifespan of 50,000 years."
Heaton didn't expect that there was such a statement about the lifespan of the world, he came from the blue star, and according to the archaeological theory of evolution, he knew that the planet had a lifespan of hundreds of millions, and he thought that every world had such a lifespan.
But if you think about it carefully, in fact, it's not, whether it's the Crimson World or the Pirate World, the recorded history is not long, and even reality has said that his birth time is not long, and he has experienced so many worlds, only the JOJO world has a long history, and it is estimated that it is hundreds of thousands of years, so the ability of the stand-in is so strong and unreasonable.
In this comparison, the world of Fairy Tail has a variety of magical abilities, and even some strange things are not incomprehensible.
"Every world with mature rules can give birth to gods, there are not many gods born in Aslanth, I and [Kronos] are all considered gods born in Aslanth, so they have more inheritance in this world, and gods like Ankselam are not gods in this world, but only a projection of gods born in other worlds in this world for people to believe."
