It was only natural that Tartarus expected this question when the topic was raised once more.
He calmly said: “Perhaps Eros, the god of love and desire, was born from a sudden thought that arose between Nyx and me, and some chaotic force seeped into the abyss.
However, this chaotic source is too rare, and I only remember an instant of chaos.” “As if an invisible divine power governs me, making me want to say something—but now I am in full possession of my senses.
I know that Nyx is Night, so I also wish to convey some information to Nyx, despite the confusion in my memories.” “It may be false, or it may be real.
We are all confused about the future, and we are very eager to know what lies ahead.” “Yes, I am very interested in my future,” Nyx agreed.
Tartarus continued: “At the same time, night separates the abyss from the earth, and the chaotic essence that originally remained on the earth will continue to destroy it.” “New chaotic sources continue to emerge within the earth, and sister Gaia will once again fall into suffering.
You can sense how beautiful the earth is, and I cannot bear the thought of her sinking again into endless pain.” “When you were born, I sensed that within darkness and night there were also chaotic sources that had not been integrated into your bodies, and they were destroying your bodies, were they not?” “I am the Abyss of Chaos.
The chaotic source only occasionally confuses my memories; it does not harm my true essence.
Sister Nyx, brother Erebus, I sincerely wish to help you and sister Gaia.” Gazing into the abyss, Nyx saw a secret, happy smile in her eyes: “Brother Tartarus, I feel your sincerity and tenderness.
You are so kind to me.” “Erebus, we were born together.
The future of night may be dark.
Don’t you want to know?” The body of Erebus, the god of darkness, which had just vanished, stopped disappearing and rapidly materialized: “Indeed, I want to know.” He looked down into the abyss: “The chaotic sources that have not merged with the dark body are constantly destroying the darkness.
I continuously expend divine power to suppress them, but new chaotic sources are generated in the process.” Then Nyx said: “Tartarus is right.
Night is also being destroyed by the chaotic source.
I have been suppressing these unruly chaotic sources.” Then Tartarus said: “So you can channel that part of the chaotic essence into the abyss.” Nyx said: “I sense that the chaotic source poses the greatest threat to us gods.
Brother Tartarus, you must be careful.” “After the chaotic source enters the abyss, if you feel that your memories are about to become completely chaotic and you cannot suppress them, you must tell us.” Tartarus said: “I will do that.
I cannot descend to the earth.
I hope you will convey to Gaia that I will continue to receive the chaotic essence within the earth.” “At that time, these chaotic elements will have to flow through the darkness.
This is only the initial plan.
Once the chaotic elements within you are gone, I will begin to receive the chaotic elements from the earth.” “But if this flow causes you great harm, then we should stop and consider other solutions.
We are brothers and sisters, and I believe you will be happy to help sister Gaia, won’t you?” “Yes,” replied Nyx, the Goddess of Night.
“I will go and tell Sister Gaia, and take my leave of my two brothers.” With that, Nyx vanished.
“Farewell.” Erebus glanced at the abyss, then completely disappeared into the darkness.
Sensing the infinite darkness above the abyss, Tartarus felt an inexplicable unease.
The darkness seemingly had no physical form, but Erebus governed it, using it to isolate everything.
This prevented Tartarus’s divine sense from perceiving the earth, and he could not even clearly distinguish the specific composition of the darkness, remaining in a state of complete ignorance and confusion.
From within the abyss, he felt as if he were trapped in darkness at the very bottom of the world, overwhelmed by a suffocating sense of infinite darkness and eternal stagnation.
“I must achieve deification as soon as possible.
Once I do, I will be able to walk freely on the earth and will no longer be troubled by darkness,” Tartarus thought.
Originally, this place had been flat, with no sky, ocean, mountains, or even life.
After the birth of darkness and night, eternal night fell between the earth and the abyss, and upon the earth there was also eternal night.
The infinite darkness surrounding Tartarus in the abyss deprived him of the ability to see or feel the chaos beyond that membrane.
Like Tartarus, this earth was surrounded by infinite darkness.
Even after the birth of Nyx, the goddess of night, and Erebus, the god of darkness, they could no longer see or feel the barriers between worlds.
Before chaos emerged, without any barriers, as the surface area of the earth expanded to its limit, the world became infinitely vast.
The birth of darkness brought the Chaos realm to its initial completion.
Wherever darkness falls upon the earth, Nyx can instantly reach it by directing her divine power.
Soon, she finished telling Gaia, the goddess of the earth, about Tartarus’s plan.
Gaia was overjoyed, having feared that the darkness would separate her from Tartarus.
She had not expected that Tartarus would still care for her and be willing to make sacrifices for her sake.
She descended into the abyss specifically to thank Tartarus.
Subsequently, both the Goddess of Night and the God of Darkness returned to their original forms.
They were the first to begin, directing the chaotic essence of darkness and night into the abyss.
When the chaotic source descended into the abyss, Tartarus directed his divine power, beginning to integrate this chaotic source into the abyss.
Time passed…
According to Tartarus’s concept of past lives, hundreds of years went by.
Since the chaotic essence of night had not yet been fully integrated into the abyss, Tartarus naturally could not receive the chaotic essence of the earth.
However, as the Book of Creation showed, over the past century, these values had increased significantly.
The first page remained unchanged.
Page two – God of Deception – Divinity (Incomplete – 30%) Page three – God of Chaos – Divinity (Incomplete – 80%) Page four – God of Devouring – Divine Spark (Incomplete – 99.9%) Page five – God of Prophecy – Divinity (Incomplete – 1%) — 100%!
When the Divine Spark of the Devouring God reached 100% of its potential, the fourth page of the Book of Creation underwent changes.
[God of Devouring] [God of Devouring – Divinity] [Ability: Devour] In an instant, Tartarus discovered that although his power had not significantly increased, he had gained two new abilities.
The first possibility was that he had mastered the divine power of devouring.
Originally, it was the three gods—Earth, Darkness, and Night—who voluntarily introduced the chaotic source into the abyss.
Only then could Tartarus control the Abyss, use divine power to devour it, and merge the chaotic source with the Abyss.
However, to devour Tartarus’s divine power, the three gods no longer needed to actively channel the chaotic source into the abyss.
If they did not actively hinder it, Tartarus could actively devour the chaotic essence of the earth and night.
Moreover, this all-devouring divine power was not limited to devouring the chaotic source.
Tartarus had not yet tried, but he had a premonition that he could devour sources beyond the chaotic source, such as the various sources of life that composed the earth.
At the same time, his second ability was that he could become a god and gain a divine body!
At the very moment Tartarus was about to become a god, an exceptionally powerful and domineering divine pressure suddenly swept through the entire Chaos realm.
Its nature also passed across the earth, crossed the darkness, and fell into the abyss.
“The God of the Sky is about to be born!”
