"The essence of gravity was far more complex than I had imagined. But..."
Wei He sat upright in the cave, knowing full well that his understanding of gravity amounted to no more than a superficial grasp.
A superficial grasp based on modern theoretical science.
Yet that superficial grasp alone was enough for him to utterly crush everyone in this era.
He did not need to understand gravity completely. He only needed to understand it better than everyone else.
Besides, no one would likely think of using Universal Gravitation as their stored deity.
People of this era probably could not comprehend a concept as advanced as Universal Gravitation at all. Being able to grasp gravity would already make one an exceptionally formidable figure.
"The most convenient thing about gravity is that it can go from weak to strong in one smooth sweep. Unlike many deities, whose inherent might has limits.
"The greatest advantage of gravity is its seamless progression. An apple falling is gravity; two planets colliding can also be gravity. Even the sun collapsing into a white dwarf is gravity."
After careful deliberation, Wei He ultimately chose Universal Gravitation.
Because no history could possibly surpass its own. No one knew how long gravity had existed.
Moreover, it did not merely truly exist—it was everywhere. Its power could be great or small, making it suitable for controlled use.
Its future potential was immensely powerful.
According to the framework of modern physics, gravity could even warp space and time.
Therefore...
"It's decided!"
Within his heart, Wei He stored his deity. The appearance of the Gravity God was a mass of twisted, pitch-black ripples.
It had no fixed shape, representing his own impression of gravity.
Gravity itself had never possessed a fixed form.
Gravity was merely a phenomenon, a description of a phenomenon
