Chapter 35: The Land of Eternal Night

"Let's go, then."

In the light of the Dark Moon, Ryan spoke.

Now that he had made his decision, he wasn't going to waste any more time.

Before leaving, though, Ryan glanced west.

In that direction, an aura that tried to hide itself, but was very distinct, was there.

"What, isn't that your guy?"

"No, if nothing else, it should have been sent by Kronos."

Feeling the invisible currents that he thought were well hidden under the light of the moon, Ryan felt a little funny.

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

The other party has been here for a long time, but Ryan has been staying in the spirit world before, so he didn't pay attention to him. But whether it was the God of Favonius or not, Ryan actually didn't quite understand why the other party dared to 'secretly' spy in front of him and a primordial god.

Even Ryan, unless he hides in history, when he sets foot in the underworld or the earth, he will be faintly sensed by Gaia's existence. And the concealment of the wind god is more of a physical change, and it is easy to deceive other gods, but in Ryan and the primordial gods, his existence can be seen at a glance.

"Do you want me to deal with him?"

On the side, Nyx said nonchalantly.

She wasn't interested in why Kronos had sent someone to spy on Stygian's movements, but if the other party dared to stay after seeing her, it was to challenge her authority.

"No, I can probably guess what he's here for."

Shaking his head, Ryan said lightly:

"Kronos wants to attack the stars, but I also have a few star gods. He probably had the idea of stopping me in advance if I had any signs of intervening in the dispute, after all, I am not a Titan, and he doesn't need to care about his brothers. ”

"But since he wants to know what I'm doing, I'll show him. Let's go, if this guy is still here when I come back, it's not too late to deal with him. ”

Ignoring the existence of Phoros, Ryan didn't mind the other party going to report to the God King. But if he dares to come after that, that's a different story.

"Let's go, then."

Nodding indifferently, Nyx strolled towards the edge of the Underworld.

An existence like the God of Favonius, if it weren't for jumping in front of him, Nyx wouldn't have even thought of looking at it. Whether it's solved or ignored, it makes no difference to her.

Crossing the Grey Plains and past the banks of the River Styx, Ryan arrives in the Land of Eternal Night for the first time under the guidance of the Night Lady.

At the beginning of the world, darkness enveloped all things, and eternal night covered the sky, but when the true god of the sky was born, both sank beneath the earth, between the abyss and the earth.

Later, due to the interweaving of the ontological power of the four primordial ancient gods, the underworld was born. At the edge of the underworld, there is the realm of eternal night and darkness, which is why the status of [Hades Moon] is very high in the underworld, and Hekata, who originally tracked, even became the monarch of the underworld.

Because what distinguishes the size of the underworld is actually the range covered by the light of the underworld. Where there is light, there is the underworld. Where there is no light, there is darkness and eternal night. Unlike the earth, although the underworld will also expand with the rise of the world's source power, its expansion is not the growth of the land, but the boundary of the light of the [Stygian Moon].

Therefore, the speed of expansion of the underworld in this world is actually faster than the earth on the ground. Because the current Stygian Moon is the manifestation of the spiritual realm, its 'light' is released by the seven spiritual moons in turn, which is much stronger than the original trajectory.

It can be said that if Lane does not take into account the 'privatization of public property', in fact, under the combing of the spiritual world, the overall origin of Kaos 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 line between light and night. It was dark for a moment, but the next moment, the surroundings were bright again.

Contrary to Ryan's imagination, the Land of Eternal Night, though it only has night, is not without light.

Although he couldn't find the source, Ryan could clearly tell that the light of the Land of Eternal Night was the light of the celestial bodies in the night sky, and even the illusory stars that Ryan hung up, and their starlight could also shine here.

This is the realm of the ancient gods of creation, and the alternation of day and night in this world is only the ebb and flow of the outward power here. After all, night existed long before the sun was born.

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

"Legend has it that the land of eternal night is the underskirt of the goddess of the night, and the lady of the night weaves the skirt of the secret and the stars as her embellishments."

"Now it seems that there is some truth to the rumors."

Admiring this mysterious scenery that he had never seen before, Ryan couldn't help but express his sincere admiration.

"Then you're going to be disappointed, there's nothing here but night."

The tone was as always, but this time, Nyx's heart moved slightly.

She plans to find out later who said the 'Goddess of the Night's Skirt' first.

The gods may not know very well that in the realm of fate, her essence is the symbol of fate, and the area that the Mother of Night is best at is doom.

As he walked along the way through the Land of Eternal Night, Ryan felt a sense of peace from within. In his eyes, it was a quiet and beautiful garden, and the road was overgrown with strange flowers and plants that were rarely seen in the outside world, and it was no different from the ground except that the sky was dark.

In addition to plants, there is also a lot of life hidden in the night. Ryan could feel that it was the soul that had once come from his hand.

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

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

Without Nyx's guidance, no light would have been seen from anyone or god who entered the land of eternal night. They can only grope their way forward in the night, and then they are turned into fertilizer by the flowers and plants that look normal, but in fact do not know what is inside, or they are devoured by the lives that wander 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 the priesthood is drained and they never wake up again.

I don't know how long I walked, but Ryan could feel that the chaos around him was slowly decreasing, until it disappeared completely, and the power that belonged to the night was more dense than ever. Even gradually, Ryan felt the breath of being closer to the world.

That is the Cause and Effect of Fate, the Inevitable Certainty, and the Natural Order.

The three-phase incarnation of the Night Lady, or rather, the three-phase incarnation of Kaos's present life. In the primordial gods, the night is the last to be born, but it also carries more preferences of the world.

Until a certain moment, Nyx, who was leading the way in front of him, suddenly stopped.

"Here we are." She said.

"Arrived?"

Puzzled, Ryan asked, "What about the 'Sleeping God's embryo'?" ”

"Heh, isn't it right there?"

Pouting, Nyx reached out and pointed ahead.

Ryan took a look. There, in the middle of the purple meadows, a huge white 'sleeping flower' was slowly swaying.

The embryo of the sleeping god is not a giant cocoon, and there is no trace of flesh and blood.

A flower is what it is all about.
