Sun Eater

Chapter 42: The Sun Eater

Fifteen hundred years ago, Uranus lost his position as God King, and it was on that day that Ryan opened up the Spirit World.

It was also around that time that the Twin Gods of the Night were drawn to the world, but in the end, not only did they not clash with Ryan, but after he sent out the Soul embryos, each of them returned a gift.

Nyx hung a star for Ryan, while Erebus sent Ryan the negative emotions from when Uranus lost his position.

It was the father's hatred for his son, the monarch's killing intent towards the rebel. Ryan originally planned to mix it with other materials in the future to refine it into an artifact specifically for targeting the Twelve Titans, but later, he had some new ideas.

What could be more effective than targeting one god, when targeting twelve?

His left hand lightly touched the Codex of Creation, and the invisible order was rewritten accordingly. At this time, the Sun in the sky had not yet returned to its place, and the 'Order's' punishment for Hyperion was still being maintained. So Ryan mobilized Divine Power and cleverly adjusted the method of 'punishment'.

The Sun God in the sky suddenly felt a shadow cast over his heart. He suspiciously looked around, but found nothing.

The next moment, standing in the distorted Time, Ryan guided the source power of the Spirit World and slowly injected it into the ever-changing black gas in his hand. The newly acquired Chaotic Source Power was also quickly converted a little, and mixed into that ball of negative emotions.

Time slowly passed, and the creation in front of him, entangled with source power and emotions, had begun to take shape. It inherited its previous appearance, like a vague and uncertain mist. The mark that once belonged to Uranus was washed away, and only the hatred for the Titans was retained.

Unsurprisingly, directly contacting the origin meant it would never have normal rationality. But Ryan didn't care. It was just a weapon, it didn't need rationality, as long as it was useful, that was enough.

After examining it for a while, Ryan finally granted the thing in his hand a new Life in the name of the Lord of Spirituality.

"Eclipse, an indescribable Spirit World evil spirit, an uncertain mist that devours Light and Heat, in the name of the Creator, I grant you Life."

As soon as the words fell, the black mist in front of him trembled first, and then became agile. Although the evil spirit still had no rationality, it was born with chaotic instincts. The next moment, the newly born Eclipse seemed to sense the Creator's will, so it instantly merged into the surrounding Space-Time and rushed towards the distant celestial body.

The God King's killing intent was originally directed at the Twelve Titans, but it was concentrated by Ryan on the Sun represented by Hyperion during the reshaping. When the scope was reduced, this power became more targeted and restrained.

Moreover, this kind of Life created is different from gods. They don't need to grow, they are at their peak at birth. After mixing in other powers, this emotion, which Ryan originally thought 'could create creatures comparable to True Gods', went a step further and directly became an evil thing close to Intermediate Divine Power.

Facing the Sun, its power was even more extraordinary.

It seemed like a long time had passed, but in the distorted Time, only a few seconds had passed outside. So the gods on Mount Othrys had just seen Hyperion leave in a panic, and the next moment, the Sky darkened.

Hyperion, who had never seen an evil thing before, was in a daze when the black mist had already circled in front of him. The newly born evil spirit spread out its illusory body, wrapping the originally huge Light body inside. So the Light of the Sun was covered, and Khaos fell into darkness for the first time outside of night.

"What is that?!"

"No—stop it!!"

After a moment of stunned silence, the tall and heroic Sun God showed a look of fear for the first time. When the evil spirit originating from the emotions of the previous God King covered the Sun, he suddenly felt that the power belonging to the Sun was truly weakening.

This was not the previous transfer, nor was it a temporary Change. Hyperion clearly felt that part of the Sun's origin was being transformed into a force that was opposed to it, a force that seemed to hate Light by birth and wanted to drag the world into Eternal Night.

Even at this moment, his Divine Power, which had finally stabilized after the birth of his eldest son, began to falter. If the Sun's source power continued to flow away, he was afraid that he would no longer be able to maintain his power.

"Get out!"

Boom—! In fright, Hyperion no longer cared whether he would hurt himself. He mobilized Divine Power and punched towards the Sun. The black mist covering the surface of the Great Sun was scattered by the blow, and a little Light was revealed, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, in the blink of an eye, the black mist covered it again.

Hyperion's attack could not be said to have no effect, but the evil thing that directly merged with the source power itself also gained incredible immortality at the cost of sacrificing rationality. Even if the power gap was huge, it was difficult to directly defeat it.

"Theia, help me!"

Listening to her husband's somewhat flustered call, the Mother of Light, although not as able to clearly feel the Change in the Great Sun's source power as the Sun God, still took action without hesitation.

The black mist wrapped around the Sun instantly swelled up, that was the 'Light' triggered by the goddess. But in an instant, the black mist returned to normal. The Light triggered by Theia failed to penetrate its body, but was instead turned into food by the evil spirit.

Clearly, the Sun God couple, encountering an evil entity for the first time, didn't know the correct way to respond. Pure Divine Power bombardment was merely giving the opponent a massage.

At the same time, as Hyperion went all out, the shaking of his Divine Power was noticed by the surrounding gods. The second and third generation Titans only had a vague sense, but the first generation Titans were different. As early as when Ryan took out that wisp of emotion, they already felt something was wrong. Now, the Sun God's Divinity shaking made their expressions completely change.

"Tethys, did you feel it just now?"

"I felt it... I'm not entirely sure, but it gave me a feeling of facing Sky Father directly."

Responding to her husband in a deep voice, the Goddess of Primordial Water couldn't help but clench her fist. Thousands of years had passed, and she thought she had forgotten the past, but when that familiar aura came, she couldn't control her emotions.

Titan, a synonym for Coward. In order to separate themselves from the past, they changed the word to Titan, using it to represent courage and strength. But the truth proved that in front of Sky Father, they were no different from thousands of years ago.

"It's not him, at most just some of the power he left behind."

Unlike her older siblings, the Goddess of Light Phoebe seemed much more 'dignified'. Phoebe always valued appearances, craving the respect and flattery of others, but even she didn't notice that her voice was trembling.

Whether it was the two gods in charge of the Ocean, her husband the God of Celestial Bodies, or even Hyperion in the Sky frantically attacking the Sun, they were all at least Great Divine Power, but Phoebe was different.

If the Mother of Light failed to advance because her Divine Power accumulated too slowly, then she was simply limited by her Divinity.

Perhaps in the original trajectory, Phoebe once held the Divinity of Divine Decree and used it to gain enlightenment, taking that crucial step. But now, she probably wouldn't have that opportunity.

"Some power... If it were just that, I wouldn't be too worried, but he can actually turn this power into that kind of special Life."

"Inherent restraint, even though the power gap is so huge, it can render Hyperion helpless, truly a terrifying creation."

Beside them, the taciturn Lord of the Mountains pointed out the key issue.

"Hopefully this is not replicable."

Pontus's face was also a bit gloomy. Unlike his indifferent brother, he had personally hidden Uranus's organs in the seabed back then.

He didn't know if there was only one power targeting the Twelve Titans, but whether there was one targeting him was what the Ancient Sea God was truly worried about.

A silent sense of oppression spread among the gods. A creation that could shake the origin of Divinity was something they had never heard of before.
