Chapter 60 Assimilation
"Is this the embryo of the god of sleep?"
It was somewhat surprising. Ryan did not expect it to be like this.
"Of course, so please remember not to pretend to know something when you don't know it, Your Highness Ryan." With a snort, Nix explained: "You don't think that the 'body conception' of the original god is the same as that of normal gods."
"'Conception' is just easier to understand. In fact, it is the same as when we were born. The power related to Chaos gathered and turned into something that actually existed, and then we were born."
As he said, Nix pointed to the white flower. It looks a bit like the white sleeping flower in the previous life, but from the size, it is as big as a few people hugging.
"When it blooms completely, the true god will be born from then on. And the nutrients he absorbs when he grows are the power of my body."
Nodding, Ryan probably understood a little.
No wonder the Titan gods do not feel a sense of power decline when they give birth to children, but Gaia has fallen from the most powerful ancient god to the last.
This is not only because of the division of priesthood, but also because gods conceived without intercourse will directly absorb the power of the mother. So they are born strong, unlike the later ones, who have a process of growth and development.
The twelve Titans are just stuck in the process of transformation between the two, so they have both power when they are born, but they are not as strong as their uncles.
"I see." Ryan understood a little: "So the world once invested its source power into the earth, using the most suitable environment to nurture it. When the time is right, they will become gods, and this is the origin of Uranus and his two brothers."
When the five primitive gods were conceived, there was no matter in the world, so Ryan saw everything. But he was a little unclear about how Gaia gave birth to the three gods.
"Of course, the respected 'prophet' would not really think that the earth 'gave birth' to the sky and the ocean."
With a chuckle, Nyx seemed to be in a better mood.
Shaking his head, Ryan felt that he had gotten used to Nyx's way of speaking. In comparison, he was more interested in this special way of conceiving gods.
Previously, he had not continued to divide the gods because there were no creatures with strong enough essence to carry the divine duties. But now, he might be able to try this method of origin breeding.
"You can't do it, or it's difficult to do it." As if seeing Ryan's thoughts, Nix reminded him: "In fact, this behavior is not small. The damage to the breeding environment and the world itself is not small. If it is not more harmful than beneficial, why should Uranus be crowned the God King for creating a new way of God's birth?"
"If he is given another 30,000 years, or 50,000 years, maybe he can really take that step and become the first great divine power to achieve acquired achievements, and use this to fight against the power of fate."
Power is power, and status is status. Whether it is the personified dark night twin gods or Uranus at his peak, their power is more than that of the great divine power that has just been promoted, but the gap in status means that they are destined to be unable to do many things, and fighting against fate is one of them.
Although confrontation and victory cannot be confused, it is ultimately a breakthrough from zero to one. Just like there are many mortals who can defeat gods in the future, but gods are immortal. They can defeat gods thousands of times, but as long as they lose once, everything will be over.
"I understand, but I will still try it once." Nodding with a smile, Ryan continued: "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. I don't trust Chaos's judgment very much."
Pouting, Nix did not continue to dissuade. She just mentioned that Ryan must hit the south wall before turning back, so let him try.
Now, she wants to solve the problem of the divine embryo as soon as possible.
"You can try it if you want, but now you have arrived."
"Use your method to let this embryo continue to be nurtured. Although I have separated from my body, this feeling of constantly being drained of power is still very uncomfortable."
"Okay, remember to release the barrier of the Land of Eternal Night to the outside world. If you want to assimilate it, the power of the spiritual world is indispensable."
Nodding, Ryan stepped forward.
The feeling of the divine body in front of him was very strange, or it could be said that divinity itself was so strange. It cannot be simply described as spirit or matter. To be precise, it has both, and it seems to have neither.
If it must be described, Ryan feels that divine flesh and blood tends to be in a quantum state.
If you observe it in the way you observe matter, it will show all the characteristics of matter. If you observe it in the way you observe spirit, it will show all the characteristics of spirit. And the subjective will of the gods is the only "observer" that can make this "wave function" "collapse" in the direction they want.
At this moment, the "sleeping flower" in front of Ryan exists in a material state. The first step to assimilate it is to let it turn itself into a spiritual state.
Reaching out his hand, Ryan tried to touch the petals of the embryo in front of him. But soon, he stopped this behavior because he faintly felt the traces of the world's will.
"It was born under the will of the world and is naturally protected by Chaos. Only when it takes the initiative to release the restrictions can you touch it."
On the side, watching Ryan's actions, Nix reminded him.
"Take the initiative? That's easy."
Nodding slightly, Ryan's will merged with the spiritual world that had already enveloped the underworld. Nyx released the restrictions of the Land of Eternal Night at the right time, so the spiritual power followed the path Ryan came in and directly reached the vicinity of the embryo.
So the next moment, the sleep and dream source power that had been "eaten up" appeared in Ryan's hand. As if sensing the same root and source, the big white flower immediately swayed, and the power surrounding it disappeared immediately.
Seeing this, Ryan did not rush to send the source power that had already been transformed by the spiritual world, but operated his divine power to quietly pull the embryo of the "God of Sleep" into the dream.
In the dream, the embryo's hazy consciousness seemed to feel that the surrounding environment had changed, and its current state was incompatible with it. So driven by instinct, the characteristics of its divine body began to change, from the material state to the spiritual state.
In the outside world, Ryan looked at the "sleeping flower" that began to change synchronously. He no longer hesitated and injected the source power in his hand into it.
Sensing the same source of breath connecting with itself, the "sleeping flower" still sucked greedily even though it was still in the dream, and became a part of its own divine duty. However, with the integration of the source power, the big flower that turned into a spiritual state did not notice that it was also being assimilated by the spiritual world.
For Ryan, the source power he gave was like a divine nature bestowed upon him. It not only did not affect his control over the relevant fields, but was also equivalent to installing an external plug-in.
For the embryo in front of him, there was no such thing as assimilation. After all, it was nothing more than a transfer from the boss named "Chaos" to the boss named "Spiritual World". It did not have any independent consciousness and could not feel the difference at all.
Only the worldly power that originally lingered around the embryo was violently turbulent again, but neither the object it protected nor Ryan paid attention to its meaning.

PS: Regarding the issue of the spirit and body of the gods, you can refer to the wave-particle duality of high school physics. If you really can't understand it, just think of the spirit of the gods as one body, which can be transformed into each other.
