Myth: The Ruler of Spirituality

Chapter 677 - 238 Black Tide

Boom —

In the sky, storms collided with lightning, and molten lava obstructed the rivers.

The tremendous vibrations spread hundreds of miles, making the mortals in Heliopolis pray to the deities with even more fervor.@@@@

However, in reality, the pages in his hands swiftly turned, a mass of repeated text flickering before his eyes. Thoth had devoted most of his energy to the complicated runes in front of him, maintaining only a small part of his vigilance.

After all, he did not trust his enemy so easily, nor would he truly give her a chance to escape.

The battle between worlds does not necessarily correlate directly with losing to an Outer God, at least not for Thoth, for whom this wasn’t the first option.

"This ritual, Life, Spirit... It’s a pity, La did not entrust the authority over her Life to me, otherwise perhaps I could have deciphered its mysteries myself,"

"Hmm, not necessarily. From what Isis has shown, does she actually believe that including all gods, our souls are inherently in an ’imperfect’ state?"

"The soul being divided into ’Ka’ and ’Ba’ is already flawed—no, she even feels that gods having souls is a flaw in itself."

Since the spirit is naturally divided and cannot be unified postnatally, why not use external force to annihilate one part and then regenerate a new, connected other part on the remaining half?

This newly born spirit would then be unified, possessing both the characteristics of ’Ka’ and the capabilities of ’Ba.’ Or rather, it would be the complete spirit itself.

At this moment, Thoth felt that if it were not for external threats and Isis’s current choice of betrayal, with this discovery, she might have been able to obtain the Godhood of the soul and further perfect the Order of the world, completing the unification of all life’s souls.

At that time, she would have garnered countless followers and the favor of the world’s will, with the existence of All Spirits being the source of her strength.

If she then unified life and Magic using the soul as the primary subject and devoured his wisdom... Isis might truly ascend beyond a True God and become as powerful an existence as La.

Moreover, La’s strength is because the Sun of the Hemenu world is inherently powerful, born as rebirth, the supreme of the Stars, a confluence of Light, Fire, purification, and other authorities. If Isis succeeded, she would be creating a Divine Authority not inferior to the [Sun], by piecing together her own authorities.

This kind of miracle is almost unimaginable.

"Huh—it’s hard to say."

"After all, who would choose to give up their authority and annihilate half of their own soul, if not facing the calamity of death?"

Shaking his head slightly, Thoth could only state that fate was such a coincidence.

Had there been no invasion from beyond, there likely wouldn’t have been Isis’s ritual, even if she had more advanced thoughts; she wouldn’t have done something that could lead to death. But with the invasion, she invented this ritual, and as a result, she missed the chance for promotion.
