Chapter 379

Although my reincarnated body is influenced by the divine microcosm and divine soul, infinitely evolving toward a divine body, it is ultimately not a true divine body.

I absolutely cannot unleash my peak strength, nor do I have any possibility of further progress, but this divine body is completely different!

This body has already lost its original soul, and Saisori Shiori can see that the true god named Luode has been nurturing this body with his divine power.

This body is now filled with divine power and vitality; I can use the divine microcosm to let my current mortal body fuse with this true body.

Then this divine body will become the most suitable body for me, allowing me to fully recover.

"Thank you, Mr. Luode! I can help you awaken the divine microcosm, but I need a quieter place—come with me!" After taking the divine body from the ground, Saisori Shiori spoke.

To fully fuse this divine body, I still need some time; I must first awaken the divine microcosm of this god named Luode before I can proceed.

"Okay!"

The two left Saisori Shiori's small garden together, and under her guidance, Luode came to the bedroom of this contemporary Yatianna.

"Come sit here, Mr. Luode—just sit beside me." Saisori Shiori sat on the bed and patted the cushion beside her.

Luode nodded, came before Saisori Shiori, sat down, and asked: "Miss Shiori! How will you help me awaken the divine microcosm?"

"Mr. Luode! Before I help you awaken the divine microcosm, I have a question: do you feel an urge to burst forth with the divine power and divine soul within your body?" Yatianna asked.

At the initial awakening of the microcosm, divine power always manifests as an explosive sensation, whether in humans or gods.

"Exactly—I felt this sensation the moment I arrived in this world, but I have been suppressing my divine power and never let it explode." Luode nodded and said.

"Fortunately, you suppressed it in time; if not properly guided, recklessly detonating your inner divine power

will lead only to one outcome: your body exploding and dying, and even your divine soul will be destroyed." Yatianna said.

When the divine race awakens their microcosm, it is always after adulthood, with help from their parents; as for the first-generation divine race, they are born in a perfect primordial state, possessing their own microcosm from birth.

Upon hearing this, Luode felt a wave of lingering fear; fortunately, upon arriving in this world, I did not act rashly but chose to seek help from an experienced god, rather than fumbling on my own.

"So what should we do next?"

"First, relax your body, sit cross-legged, and I will guide you using my own microcosm.

Then ignite the divine power within you, and you must control it, letting it burn and explode.

Produce an effect like the Big Bang, then orderly constrain this chaotic explosion, thereby awakening your microcosm, entering the will of the gods, and transforming into a divine microcosm." Saisori Shiori gave Luode a detailed introduction to the divine microcosm.

That sounds quite simple.

"Next, I will tell you the cultivation method of the divine microcosm—actually, the divine microcosm and human microcosm cultivation are not different.

Both involve burning to release microcosmic energy, thereby gaining unimaginable power.

The difference lies in the fact that gods have innate advantages far surpassing humans, so the awakened divine microcosm is far beyond what humans can reach." Saisori Shiori began to explain the microcosm in detail to Luode, saying: "It seems human microcosms and divine microcosms have similar awakening methods—Miss Shiori, could you introduce me to the relative strength of human and divine microcosms?" Luode said.

"No problem—first, let's talk about the human microcosm: after awakening, it becomes the sixth sense, granting various superpowers, such as telekinesis, control over elemental forces—wind, fire, thunder, lightning—instant movement, hypnosis, and similar abilities.

Further advancement leads to the seventh sense of the microcosm, the ultimate microcosm, a power only the strongest warriors can awaken, possessing unimaginable destructive force.

Beyond that is the eighth sense of the microcosm, also known as Alaya-vijnana, transcending the seventh sense, an ultimate realm beyond life and death.

Humans who awaken the eighth sense while alive are not bound by the laws of the underworld; such humans can even match some weak gods.

Meanwhile, the divine microcosm is called the will of the gods; upon awakening their microcosm, gods gain unimaginable power and can effortlessly control all natural laws.

They transcend life and death, becoming eternal and indestructible; even if a god's body is destroyed, as long as the divine microcosm persists, it will not perish and can undergo endless reincarnation.

The divine microcosm varies in strength, mainly depending on innate talent, the strength of one's divine power, and postnatal cultivation.

Above the will of the gods lies the ultimate power, also known as the true power of the gods—the power held by the primordial gods who created the world, the chaotic force that constitutes all existence in the universe.

This power can cause the universe to expand infinitely, create and destroy all phenomena in the world; the primordial gods at the birth of the universe were the ones who wielded this ultimate power.

Absolute gods—at the birth of every spacetime, when neither worlds nor gods existed yet.

Yet in the void, many creator gods had already been born; they are the absolute gods, each possessing the power to create the universe and the gods, to evolve mythology, worthy of being called the ancestors of myth, the creator gods.

Above the absolute gods exists a being called the supergod.

The root of all universes, the creator of all things, the end of time and space, born from the void: the supergod Kronos." Cheng Shuzhi gave Luode a detailed explanation of the divine ranks and human microcosm levels.

However, she did not tell Luode about the great cosmos Omega, after all, even the gods have never seen such power.

The Athena's Astonishment controlled by my Golden Saint Warriors, the Three-in-One Tactics, utilizes a portion of Omega's power.

But this power is extremely difficult to grasp, and even if mastered, humans cannot be immortal like gods.

As for gods, it is said they cannot control this power.

"I understand, Miss Shiori—then please begin!" Luode sat cross-legged before Yatianna, emptying his body, mind, and spirit.

Saisori Shiori nodded, condensed her own divine microcosm at her fingertips, and gently touched it to Luode's brow.

Boom—boom! Luode instantly felt his entire body trembling; his divine power, at this moment, began to riot under the pull of Yatianna's microcosm.

Life divine power, chaotic evil energy, chakra power, arcane power, Asgard divine power, ancient Greek divine power—all the divine power within his body began to compress continuously, then formed an ever-smaller singularity.

"Mr. Luode, now I am helping you compress your divine power—keep compressing until it can no longer be compressed, then stop.

The smaller you compress it, the stronger the divine cosmic explosion will be, and the greater the power and divine microcosm you will gain." At this moment, Yatianna's voice entered Luode's ears.

Upon hearing this, Luode nodded and began to continuously compress all the power within his body, compressing his divine power without cease, while Yatianna's microcosm also assisted him.

"Mr. Luode, your physique is extremely strong and contains unimaginable life force—compress your divine power to your heart's content, then prepare to generate a cosmic Big Bang and guide the birth of the divine microcosm." Saisori Shiori said.

"I understand!" Luode nodded and said.

Outside the two's room, suddenly a supremely holy power arose, forming an unbreakable divine barrier; several bronze weaklings outside tried to rush in.

But they could not break through the barrier before them, gazing at the earth-shaking momentum within the villa, they could only fret helplessly.

"Damn it, what's going on? You, you—how can you let the young lady be alone with that stranger?" The old butler Chen Yi spoke angrily.

How did these scoundrels become guards? How can they let a stranger approach the young lady? What if the other party is a bad person—what then?

"I, I also want to stay by Miss Shiori's side, but, but Miss Shiori let me out, saying the man before us poses no threat." Xiewu spoke. "Damn it, if something happens to the young lady, how can I face my father?"

At that moment, as everyone anxiously waited, several golden lights flew from afar, and several men in golden holy clothes appeared within the villa.

"What happened? We felt Athena's microcosm violently burning, and there is also an immensely powerful presence beside her." Leo Aiolia spoke, asking.

"This morning, a strange person suddenly arrived; Miss Shiori let me bring him in, then we talked for a while and entered the room, after which this barrier appeared—thus we are blocked outside." Xiewu explained the current situation.

"Don't rush, Aioria. Although Athena's cosmos is burning fiercely, there should be no battle. If I'm not mistaken, the person inside should also be a god." Saga said.

"Why don't we try to break this barrier by force?" Taurus Aldebaran said.

"No, without Athena's or Master Taurus's command, we Gold Saints cannot act rashly. Besides, Athena doesn't seem to be in danger right now." Mu reached out to stop the Taurus who wanted to act.

"In any case, let's wait a bit! From the looks of it, Athena is not in danger."

Others can't see the situation clearly, but we Gold Saints can see it clearly.

Athena placed her finger on a mysterious man's head, using her god's cosmos to do something? This posture clearly isn't combat. This male god, from the looks of it, is not Athena's enemy.

At this moment, Luode's body was trembling violently, having compressed all his power into a singularity so small it couldn't be smaller, already at the limit of his body.

"Now! Mr. Luode, burst forth!

Let the god-point explode! Let your cosmos explode, then enter the will of the gods." Athena's voice entered Luode's ears.

After hearing this, Luode no longer hesitated, and burst the singularity compressed to the extreme within his body.

Boom!!

Like the sound of the universe's beginning, like the truth of the universe's birth, Luode's singularity burst within him. Luode felt his entire body begin to tremble, even feeling as if he were about to be torn apart, and could only begin to suppress with all his strength.

At the same time, Athena City Hood Shiori also began to burn her god's cosmos with all her strength, helping Luode, allowing the god's cosmos just born within Luode to stabilize.

This is a profound realm difficult to describe in words. Luode clearly felt that all the power within his body seemed to vanish in an instant.

Merged into his own cosmos, yet all power seemed not to have disappeared, because he could still use them, only the source had become the cosmos.

At this moment, Luode's soul gained eternal elevation, nourished by the god's cosmos, becoming immortal and undying, entering the eternal realm, becoming a god's soul.

And his body, nourished by the cosmos, became even stronger, even Luode's appearance changed, becoming more handsome.

His entire body radiated dazzling brilliance, emitting a supremely sacred god's aura, appearing so noble and pure.

"Just like that, congratulations, Mr. Luode, you have entered the will of the gods." City Hood Shiori wiped the sweat from her forehead, looking at Luode and said.

Awakening the god's cosmos before this male god consumed a great deal of her power.

Fortunately, the awakening ultimately succeeded. The cosmos power now possessed by the other party is exactly that possessed by a god.

"Thank you, Miss Shiori! The god's cosmos is indeed an unimaginably great power.

Without you, I fear I could not control this power to enter the will of the gods." At this moment, a mysterious red spiral flower pattern appeared on Luode's forehead, emitting dazzling godly light.

"You're welcome! You brought me a god's body, so helping you awaken your cosmos is just a trifle." City Hood Shiori shook her head and said.

"Miss Shiori! I know gods have their own god cloths. I want to know how to obtain one for myself." Luode asked.

"If it's a god cloth, I'm sorry, I don't have one now. The god cloths of the Olympian Twelve Gods have all disappeared with Zeus's disappearance.

What I'm wearing now is the holy cloth I invented. As for Hades and Poseidon,

they invented their own scale cloth and nether cloth. The making of this special god's battle armor is very simple.

If you want, I can teach you." Athena said.

If needed, City Hood Shiori intends to teach the other party her own version of the holy cloth forging method, though the materials for forging holy cloth in this era are hard to come by.

"I have a decent god's battle armor. Perhaps Miss Shiori, you could help me a little, so my battle armor becomes a holy cloth." Luode said.

Speaking of prestige, Athena's holy cloth is still very high. Luode plans to borrow Athena's holy cloth version to forge his own holy cloth.

"No problem, Mr. Luode, please take out your battle armor." Shiori said.

If the other party has a god's battle armor, things will be much easier to operate.

Luode nodded and immediately took out the golden flame armor forged for him by Hephaestus before.

"The texture of this armor is quite good!

And the craftsmanship—I can tell it's made by a god of craftsmanship, even the forging technique seems somewhat familiar to me!" Athena reached out and touched Luode's god's battle armor, praising as she spoke.

Leaving aside the craftsmanship, just the materials used are better than those of my own holy cloth, even better than my own god's cloth.

At least four god-level materials, while my own god's cloth has only one god-level material.

"Hahaha! Miss Shiori! The forger of this armor is Hephaestus, the fire god from another world, and the materials he used are also the finest I could find." Luode said.

"It's no wonder it was forged by a fire god. Perhaps this special battle armor can reach the level of a god cloth." Athena said thoughtfully.

The prototype of the Olympian Twelve Gods' battle armor god cloth was forged by Hephaestus, the fire god. If the Hephaestus from another world still exists,

I wonder if we could ask Mr. Luode to have that other world's fire god reforge his holy cloth? "Hahaha! If Miss Shiori likes it, I can provide you with some materials." Luode said.

"You're truly generous, Mr. Luode. Then I won't stand on ceremony. Luode, now we will turn your battle armor into a holy cloth!

First, infuse your god's cosmos into this battle armor, then smear your god's blood upon it." City Hood Shiori began teaching Luode how to do it.

Under Athena's guidance, Luode infused his god's cosmos into the battle armor, then cut his palm and dripped his blood upon it.

The god's battle armor quickly absorbed Luode's blood and his god's cosmos, and produced some kind of resonance with Luode.

The appearance of the god's battle armor began to change: the wings became larger and more magnificent, the helmet became more splendid and beautiful.

On the god's armor, mysterious exquisite patterns began to appear, looking supremely noble. The armor began to disassemble on its own, then was worn upon Luode's body.

At this moment, Luode finally counts as a standard god in the Saint Seiya world, possessing his own god's cosmos, possessing his own holy cloth. (End of chapter)
