The Power of the Codex of Creation

The moment the words left his mouth, Hyperion didn't hesitate. Vast Divine Power surged from him, echoing the celestial bodies in the sky.

Having made his decision, he didn't intend to test the waters any further. The great Sun in the Sky instantly erupted with a thousand times its usual heat. Every sentient being in Khaos could see the Sun, which had been hanging in the mid-sky, beginning to deviate from its original position, descending towards the earth with increasing speed.

As the original Sun God, a Titan God of Great Divine Power, Hyperion didn't need any Sun Chariot to drive this celestial body. Or rather, relying on external objects to control the symbol of his Divinity was, in itself, a sign of insufficient strength.

At the same time, the Titan Ancient Gods Theia and Crios also subtly exerted their authority. Although they didn't directly attack, Light and Sun were too closely aligned, and Meteorology could amplify the power of the great Sun. The Sun's light became ten million times more intense, and it hurtled straight towards Ryan, guided by Divine Power.

The power of this single strike, under the combined force of the three Titans, elevated Hyperion's strength by more than one level. Even the Great Divine Powers present couldn't help but reveal solemn expressions.

Although Hyperion's Divine Power had fallen back to the threshold of Great Divine Power due to the birth of his eldest son, this attack, drawing on the great Sun, was enough to make any God present retreat.

"You still have time to give up," Hyperion finally smiled, looking at Ryan on the Divine Mountain.

"Once the Sun falls, you won't have another chance to regret it."

Raising an eyebrow, Ryan had to admit that Theia and the Sun God were indeed a match made in heaven. Their combined strength had faintly approached the level of Divine Power 19. If Hyperion hadn't been digging his own grave, Ryan wouldn't have dared to stay where he was.

Of course, not being able to withstand it didn't mean he couldn't avoid it. The great Sun faintly locked onto this Space-Time, but it ultimately didn't have authority over Space-Time. As long as he bypassed History and traversed Space-Time, Ryan could easily retreat at any time.

But compared to dodging, he had a better solution.

"Nothing is absolute, Hyperion. Gods must pay the price for what they have done. Uranus did, and so will you."

"The lessons of History are right before your eyes, yet you have never learned a thing."

Slightly shaking his head, Ryan calmly responded. In the next moment, the light around him was instantly distorted. Under the effect of his authority, one second was stretched into more than a quarter of an hour.

This was just a basic application of the Power of Time. With ample Time, he slowly raised his hand, and the Codex of Creation floated in mid-air, flipping through its pages on its own. In the blink of an eye, countless pages filled with Spirit Script turned, finally stopping at the section describing the rules of celestial body movement.

Everything has its order. Even the God King would be punished by the world if they abused their authority, let alone a Sun God.

And wielding the Codex of Creation, Ryan could make this punishment more specific, more severe, and more efficient.

The great Sun falling to the mortal realm wasn't a big deal in itself. As long as Hyperion controlled it properly and didn't let it actually collide with the earth, the backlash he would have to bear would be almost non-existent. But the Sun God had suppressed his eldest son for hundreds of years, keeping the celestial body that should have risen in the east and set in the west suspended in the Sky. This was his greatest violation of order.

And on this Divine Mountain, where 'legislation' had just been completed, the remaining laws of the present world would further amplify the power of the Codex of Creation, causing those who deviated from order to suffer double the punishment.

"The movement of the Sun and Moon has its rules. According to the Codex, each follows its own path."

As the words fell, Ryan's Divine Power flowed into the book in his hand, absorbed by this powerful creation that was already close to a Creation Artifact. In the next moment, a crisp sound of chains rattling echoed in the void. The speed of the Sun, which had been hurtling towards Ryan, suddenly decreased, completely losing its initial momentum.

Hyperion, as the Sun God, also discovered that the more the Sun deviated from its original orbit, the stronger the force preventing its movement became.

Although the great Sun was still approaching Ryan, the power of this strike had been reduced by more than half.

"Hmph, mere tricks."

With a cold snort, Hyperion glanced at the Mother of Light beside him. Theia understood and, at the same time, they began to urge their Divine Power, and the speed of the Sun's descent accelerated again.

If Ryan were also a Great Divine Power, or wielded a complete Creation Artifact, Hyperion would definitely turn around and leave. But now, even if he had to use nearly half of his power to resist the chains of law, he still had enough confidence.

However, until this moment, he still hadn't realized the severity of the problem.

"Violators are guilty. Those who are guilty shall be punished."

Along with Ryan's second pronouncement, Hyperion initially didn't take it seriously, but then his expression suddenly changed.

He had already prepared himself to once again withstand the Power of Order, but just now, he discovered in horror that his control over the Sun was actually decreasing.

Aside from Khaos, no one could shake the authority of the gods; Hyperion thought he was hallucinating. But then, he suddenly realized the problem.

"Is it Helios? What have you done to him?"

Hyperion exclaimed, realizing that it wasn't Khaos diminishing his divine authority, but that there was an issue with the Sun itself.

Since Helios's birth, the Sun had two masters: one symbolizing its existence, and the other symbolizing its operation. But because of the oppression of his eldest son, the Sun had never truly operated since the day he was born.

Undoubtedly, this was a violation of the current order. But under normal circumstances, as the original Sun, a mere few hundred years would not be enough for Hyperion to pay the price. However, under the effect of the [Codex of Creation], the feedback from the order was amplified.

Hyperion's control over the Sun began to flow to his child. Although this transfer was reversible, he was forced to stop the Sun's descent.

He could continue to attack, as long as he had enough trust in Helios. But obviously, there was no trust between the Sun God father and son.

Although Helios usually listened to him, Hyperion didn't believe it at all, knowing himself.

For the Sun God who had personally staged a 'filial piety' act, his daughter was fine, after all, there was no conflict in Divinity. But his son Helios, he had been wary of him for a long time.

"Good, very good, Themis, is this your justice?"

Knowing that he could only return empty-handed today, Hyperion glared at his sister beside him.

Since the Divine Decree Stone Tablet was reshaped, it was completely different from the original. Even the ancient gods on the Divine Mountain who had seen the Divine Decree did not recognize that the [Codex of Creation] was the former stone tablet.

"This was originally Ryan's, I'm just returning it to its rightful owner."

Themis frowned and explained.

'With his relationship with us Titan Gods, would he kindly lend you a Creation Artifact?'

Hyperion snorted coldly, not completely overwhelmed by anger. He took one last look at Ryan and turned to leave.

Saying more harsh words now would only become a joke, but today's matter was not over! Watching Hyperion leave, Ryan shook his head slightly. He could probably guess what the other party was thinking. But unfortunately, you can decide when to act; but I will decide when to end it.

So, in the next moment, he reached out and took out a gift that had been stored for fifteen hundred years.

Regarding the Divine Power level issue yesterday, since everyone felt that it should appear in the narration rather than the dialogue, I changed it according to public opinion. For at least one era after this, I will not mention numbers in the dialogue between the Khaos Gods. But I don't know why, the comments there were automatically deleted after the modification. Anyway, I didn't delete them. If there were any accidental injuries, blame Qidian.

Also, you all say that I end chapters abruptly, but to be honest, a newbie author like me can't do that at all. I can't even control a chapter of two thousand words well. Like when I read books myself, each chapter costs 20/10 coins, like it's perfectly timed, I can't learn it at all.
