The chaotic source had suddenly erupted.

The ink-black chaotic origin enveloped Tartarus’s devouring clone, radiating a powerful aura of destruction.

Like the most potent poison, it instantly corroded the garments created from Tartarus’s divine power.Full novel: Greek Mythology: Lord of the Abyss — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Subsequently, these chaotic sources continued to erode his divine body.

The three deities—the Goddess of Night, the Mother Earth, and the Sky God—instinctively retreated quickly.

“Brother Tartarus!

Can you no longer suppress the chaotic source?” Nyx, the goddess of night, asked with concern.

She had personally experienced the harm the chaotic source inflicted upon the very essence of night, so she knew.

As she spoke, she commanded the night, transforming it into claws of darkness, grasping at the chaotic essence enveloping Tartarus’s body, trying to pull it away.

At the same time, as the earth and stones beneath Tartarus rose, the Mother Goddess of the Earth, Gaia, also reached out to help.

Uranus, the god of the sky, looked serious.

This fleeting glimpse of the chaotic essence had already made him sense a danger hundreds of times greater than what he had felt before.

Recalling the vast territory affected earlier, he realized that if it had reached the sky, he could have been severely wounded.

“No need!” Tartarus raised his hand to stop them.

His voice was muffled and confused: “On the earth there are unevenness and depressions, oceans, mountains, rivers, the sky, the sun, the moon…” He stopped mid-sentence.

“Whoosh!” The originally raging chaotic source was quickly absorbed by Tartarus and entered his body.

He directed his divine power and once again clothed himself in divine garments.

“I had absorbed quite a bit of chaotic essence, and the collision with Uranus’s divine sense disrupted my devouring divine body,” Tartarus said.

“Now everything is fine.” “Brother Tartarus, your memory is failing you again.

What are rivers, the sun, and the moon?” Nyx, the goddess of night, asked in confusion.

“Are you speaking of gods who will be born in the future?” Uranus, the god of the sky, asked with bewilderment.

Although he was not a primordial god, he was the first child in the world and the most powerful king of gods in the future world.

What Chaos had granted him surpassed even the gifts to the primordial gods.

He also possessed divine power that had not yet been activated.

After Tartarus spoke these “chaotic” words, the sky god inexplicably sensed something amiss.

Tartarus was speaking of the future!

The damage to Tartarus’s body caused by the corruption healed quickly.

“I have absorbed too much chaotic essence, and now I can no longer suppress it.

I need to channel this chaotic essence into the abyss to suppress it.” Tartarus ignored Uranus, the god of the sky, and finished speaking to himself.

He looked at Gaia and said: “Forgive me, my sister, I cannot stay to celebrate the birth of my nephew Uranus.

I need to return to the Abyss.” “Return quickly!

Once you have calmed down, we will come and thank you for your help this time,” Gaia, the Mother Goddess of the Earth, said softly.

“I will take you back to your brother Tartarus.

Farewell, sister Gaia.” Nyx, the goddess of night, ignored the sky god.

Her body vanished into the night, and the night enveloped Tartarus.

The two deities flew swiftly toward the edge of the earth…

Sensing that Nyx, the goddess of night, and Tartarus, the god of the abyss, had completely left the earth.

Meanwhile, the strange deities hiding in the distance were not on Earth.

Uranus, the god of the sky, looked at Gaia, the Mother Goddess of the Earth, and said: “Mother Goddess, do not believe the words of the god of the abyss.

I sense that some of what he said was false.” “No, darkness and night cannot be trusted, but I trust Tartarus,” Gaia, the Mother Earth, said sincerely.

She looked tenderly at the sky god: “Uranus, my child, let me tell you the story of how I met Tartarus!” Then she recounted the long history of Tartarus after his birth and how he had received his chaotic origin.

The story continued, explaining that the Abyss had received the chaotic essence of the two gods of night.

If the sky god had not suddenly been born, Tartarus would have continued to receive the chaotic essence of the earth after the gods of night…

Hearing this story, Uranus, the god of the sky, insisted: “Mother Goddess, do not believe appearances.

When my thoughts clashed with the god of the abyss’s thoughts, I sensed part of the abyss’s essence.” “Have you ever considered this?

The sky and the earth are composed mostly of life origins, while the abyss is likely composed mostly of chaotic origins, or perhaps even entirely of chaotic origins.” “You grow faster because a large amount of the Chaotic Source flows out of your bodies.

The abyss absorbs so much of the Chaotic Source and also grows, which means the Chaotic Source causes virtually no harm to the Abyss.” “He does not want to help you; rather, his true essence needs the chaotic source, and he deceived you.” “Impossible.” The tenderness on the face of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, Gaia, vanished, and she said in a low voice: “When the Abyss was born, it was the size of the Earth.

My power was only slightly greater than Tartarus’s.” “Now I am far stronger than him because there is less chaotic energy in my body, so I grow faster.

He has too much chaotic energy in his body, which affects his growth.” “Uranus, the sky is immeasurably vast—it surpasses the abyss and the earth and governs half of the Chaos realm.

You are the embodiment of the sky, and you should possess its broad embrace.” “Do not doubt Tartarus; he has sacrificed so much for us.

Especially this time, if he had not absorbed those chaotic elements, you would have been in great danger too.” Seeing the anger in Gaia’s eyes, Uranus, the god of the sky, grew angry but restrained himself.

“Fine!

Mother Goddess is right.” Uranus nodded.

But deep down, he thought: “The sky governs half of the Chaos realm, and my potential will surpass all of you gods.

In the future, my power will exceed yours.” “At that time, the sky will cover the abyss and subdue the entire world.

Tartarus, others cannot sense you, but I know you are a deceiver—you may be chaos itself.” — The goddess of night, Nyx, soon led Tartarus back to the abyss.

“After this, I can enter a deep sleep to digest and suppress the chaotic source.

Sister Nyx and brother Erebus, it would be best not to descend to the earth during this time.” Tartarus glanced at Nyx, then looked into the darkness behind her.

Then the figure of Erebus, the god of darkness, appeared.

He calmly said: “I understand.

This new god is too powerful.

I sense danger.” “Brother Tartarus, we will wait until you wake.

During this time, we will not descend to the earth.

I hate the sky,” Nyx, the goddess of night, replied.

“Good, farewell, brother and sister.” With that, Tartarus’s devouring clone lay down and fell into the abyss, instantly appearing in its deepest part, beyond the perception of any god.

The chaotic source that had just overflowed had been intentionally created by him.

Having successfully deceived three gods at once, he had significantly strengthened his deceptive divine essence.

But in truth, it was becoming increasingly difficult for him to suppress the chaotic forces within himself.

The body of the Devouring God was not the Abyss, but only an early stage of intermediate divine power, which was also constantly being damaged by the Chaotic Source.

Absorbing divine energy had slowed the destruction, but it had already reached its limit.

Within the abyss, behind the Devouring Clone, a vortex black hole appeared, from which a vast amount of chaotic essence continuously flowed into the abyss.

In the process of comprehending and digesting the chaotic origin, Tartarus noticed that several more pages of text had appeared in the Book of Creation.

Page six – God of Elements: Divinity…
