Chapter 177: The Lost Ancient World



In this very vast Universe, worlds were scattered around like a cloud of dust without connecting into each other.

Originally, it was what people used to think in ancient times.

But, there's a secret that had been found by an exalted being in the Ancient world back, back a very long time ago.

The worlds that were scattered in the vast universe were actually connecting to each other by a very mysterious unconceivable silk-like matter called fate.

This fate, has a form like spider silk, connecting the scattered worlds in this vast universe, maintaining the balance by installed a Universe rule and supplying life energy that keeps that world to stay alive.

Founding this strange phenomenon, the mentioned Exalted being at the beginning was very surprised and excited, decided to study it more to understand it better.

Along the time, the Exalted being gradually deciphered a lot of things by studying it, as it began invented a lot of things, and sharing them with his kind.

By studying and observing the mysterious matter called fate, magic, element, spirit, soul, one by one a new knowledge and secrets started being unveiled by him, making him very powerful and started changing the lives of the people in its world.

Until one day…

The day the mentioned Exalted being unveiled a thing that shouldn't be known to any living thing in this Universe.

There's no one know what that Exalted being found at that time to this day, but there's one thing that all the immortal race and guardian that protecting their respective world that born in the future knew, that exalted being actually opened a Pandora box that will change the natural order of some of the worlds in this universe.

After founding that secret, the exalted being gradually started to change.

It became so obsessed with finding a way to travel to another world and finding a means for connecting the scattered world in this universe physically.

Later did it know, its act actually violated the natural order that the Universe already set and connected with the web of fate.

By the karmic system in the universe, that exalted being ended up being branded by a very powerful curse and lost his fate as a backlash, making his existence disappeared in the canal of time, unknown if it's already dead or alive.

As if it was not enough, it turned out there's more horrifying punishment caused by this exalted being that was following suit.

There's no one know since when, but after that exalted being violated the taboo, the universe gradually stops sending the fate power to the world that Exalted being's used to reside, making it started to crumble by itself.

Knowing this, the resident of the world that exalted being used to reside, began to feel the dread of the possibility of them became extinct if they let the strange phenomenon continued.

At that time, asking to be pardoned, they created an Ancient ritual and vowed to never touch the gate that connecting to another world created by that Exalted being, only to found that the dreadful phenomenon still continued.

As the power of fate gradually diminishing, forcing their world to slowly die, within this disaster, the people from the exalted being's world, found a way to delayed their crumbling world to completely fall into ruin.

At first, they use their knowledge in magic, managed to prolong their world for a couple of centuries.

But it's didn't take too long for them to realize, their magic turned out is more poisonous than their thought.

There was a saying in the ancient time, "all that made artificially, always brought a greatly bad side effect that affected the nature"

Indeed.

At the cost of using magic to prolong their world, they sacrificed the natural lifespan of that world itself, threatening it to become unhabitable in the near future.

They acted exactly solving the leak by closing one hole, only to found out that another hole starts to appear.

It's basically meaningless.

Realizing this, they stop creating more magic particles to artificially maintain their world to start crumbling and decided to find the other mean.

rummaging the knowledge that was passed by the disappeared Exalted being, they tried to find another way to no avail and ended up found themselves stuck.

After knowing there's no more that they can find in their world to help them survive.

They began to grow desperate and began to curse the universe for giving them this punishment in the place of their leader.

In the end, they decided to open the great taboo they once vowed to never touch.

The gate that was connecting to another world the sinner made.

After traveling to another world, they found a way to save their world from crumbling.

Albeit, the cost of it's very heavy.

War.

Just from one selfish reason for a one-world to survive, they sacrificed many other worlds out there.

Gradually, they started bringing destruction and slaughter, robbing the other worlds of their fate, showcased their desperation and resentment toward the Universe that abandoned them.

And so, begin the chaotic time where magic gradually contaminated multiple worlds, as a new living being arises from the natural selection.

At that time, the immortal race gradually appeared one by one from each respective world, as the mean for the world to defend themselves from the powerful intruder.

Throughout the great war, countless lives were lost at the same number of the star in the sky, many inventions started to sprout out and spreading on countless multiple worlds from the results of the endless rivalry between the intruder and the one who was being invaded.

Magic, element, soul, it's basically the knowledge that the source of all this evil, the disappeared exalted being was unveiled by deciphering the law of Universe within the fate silk, started spreading to another world through war and gradually being invented as a tool to strengthen themselves to fight with each other.

Ironic indeed.

As the war continues, not only the lives but many of the world themselves were destroyed and ended up to became a tomb.

This tomb, it's used to be an ancient world, and it's gradually changing into an ancient dungeon in this current time.

...… and so, the Ancient Titan world was one of them] *Gorgon

Telling me this story, Gorgon, who now already has her head attached back to her body is sitting in front of me.

Different from the half-snake form she has when she was fighting with me, at this moment, she already changed herself into a fully humanoid form with legs, looking more humanly beautiful and enchanting.

Gorgon.

After she swears her allegiance at me, I took her as my subordinate and began asked a thing that I still not understand from the sudden memories that I got.

In the memory and pieces of information I got, all I know is I successfully ascended into godhood and about how the Ancient Titan world where Mount Olympus used to be located, already destroyed after having its fate robed.

Huh? Are you guys curious about the Ancient Titan world?

Let me explain it shortly to you guys,

In summary, it was the world where the titan and god of Olympus used to live.

That's it.

Actually, I didn't know it in detail myself, but I believe, it's similar but not 100% the same as the Ancient greek world story from my previous world.

Anyway, after hearing the story from Gorgon, and connecting it with the current time, I suddenly recalled something, 

[Hearing your story, I have a hunch that the one who started all of this, is a race that was called as devil race at the current time… did I nailed it?] *Me

[I don't know for sure what is current Devil race you talking about, but in the past, the one who invade our world was also called the Devil by the resident of our world…

So, if both of them are the same existence, I think they're the ones who started the war and made an enemy of countless multiple worlds… 

Speaking of them, I couldn't help myself to remember about the great war…,

At that time, since they had the advantage to access more unknown knowledge, they can still fight with the powerful Immortal race that band together quite well...

They surely a bunch of a ferocious race…

But I quite understand, after all, they are the ones who introduce a lot of weird knowledge that can strengthen our fighting power to the countless world throughout the great War] *Gorgon

Confirmed that my speculation about the devil race turns out to be the resident of the disappeared exalted being's world in the past, I began to understand as to why they become the immortal race's eternal rival and enemy.

[Then, did they successfully save their world in the end?] *Me

Curious, I decided to ask Gorgon about the end of the war.

[They failed miserably…

In the middle of the great war, their world already devastated and can't be recover.

They realize there's already no point to fight once again.

And so, they planned to make a truce with the immortal race that was being a representative of their respective world, and demand some land for their race.

with a heavy heart, the immortal race and the ancient being at that time agreed and ended the war.

that's all I know,

After the great war, I accept the few survivors of the Ancient Titan World Immortal race's offer to be a gate keeper of the Olympus/Mount Olympus…

So, to what's happening after that, I was in the dark about the development of the outside world.

Is it eternal peace or another war, either way, I really don't care as even if the war happened once again, I already lose my reason to fight since my homeland already became a tomb like this...] *Gorgon

[Anyway, I thought you just curious about what is Zen before, why you suddenly asked me about the history of Ancient times?] *Gorgon

[Nah, I just want to know why mount Olympus ended up destroyed like this…

Still, to think there's such a story in the past, it's really opened my eyes more.

And about the Zen stuff, all I know that it was a soul power..

As about how to use it properly, I didn't know, that's why I want to ask you] *Me

[Zen…

Right, you already enter godhood now…

I think it's time for you to use a power that can only be used by the demigod and god…

If you hear what my story about, I believe you already heard me that it was the Devil who invented this power before.

Soul, or popularly called Zen.

It will take quite a long time if I want to explain it to you.

So you better listen carefully okay?] *Gorgon

[Zen...…
