Chapter 734 - 261 Harvest_3
Long before, Samsara had already reached a limitation.
Both the life and death that constituted it had reached the limits under the influence of the Great Divine Power, leaving only a minor critical point stuck there. But Laine was equally aware that this point could not be completed by the accumulation of quantity alone; it needed an opportunity as well.
This opportunity was not about piling more Source Power related to life and death inside it, but rather a certain event or node with enough symbolic significance. It must be relevant to both life and death, not just one or the other.
Fortunately, this problem was not as difficult as imagined, and would be resolved at the end of the third epoch.
Therefore, the major portion of the power within this Book of the Undead was directly invested into the Elemental Plane of the fifth layer of the Spirit Realm, leaving only the essence within Samsara.
In Laine’s plans, Samsara would refine the Book of the Undead, then reconstitute it during a later Sublimation, turning it into a Divine Artifact similar to the Book of Life and Death, recording the lifespans and death dates of All Spirits. Of course, to achieve this, there was one hurdle that was insurmountable.
That was the Moirai, the Three Fates who weave, arrange, and cut destiny.
But, this was a matter for later and need not be considered for the time being. If the destiny of the present world was dismembered, they would naturally not escape death. If the destiny of the present world was intact, then they would find it difficult to die. Thus, this was merely a casual arrangement, and did not involve any other matters.
The evolution of the Genesis Artifact would also take some time, and wasn’t something that could be achieved immediately.
"Finally, this is the largest and most direct gain from this journey to another world."
"The Eight Primordial Spirits, semi-entities of the world."
"Even just a fragment of the Absolute Void is more powerful than the Book of the Undead. And the strength of the Primordial Waters is truly infinite."
"Even if it’s only a part, I’m afraid I will have to completely digest it before I can assess its extent."
Some reflected that if there were to be a ranking of strength among the Eight Primordial Spirits that had transformed into the four-layer barrier of Hemenu, then the Primordial Waters would truly deserve to be the first.
Even after splitting off the Sun and creating the Benben Stone to divide gods and the Mortal Realm, it still sat firmly at the core of the four-layer barrier, as the central axis of Hemenu.
In the past, Laine’s assessment system had Tartarus as its upper limit, which was clearly insufficient in the face of the Primordial Waters.
"Back when I clashed with Erebus, we were both around level 25 in terms of Great Divine Power, and what I called my advantage was just a superficial upper hand. A real fight, in fact, would be difficult to determine a victor."
"But by the time the Inner Realm in the fifth layer of the Spirit Realm begins to approach perfection, the symbol of Spirituality will naturally rise to the level 26 standard."
"When the Sun is completely digested in the future, and parts of the Book of the Undead further aid the completeness of the Inner Realm, then the symbol of Spirituality will most likely advance even further, stepping into the domain of 27."
"The fulfillment of the Annals of Time and Civilization Slate is similar, but how much they will enhance is unknown — perhaps, the Codex of Creation will need to participate as well, defining the new order integrated from the remnants of Hemenu, or even... the new Order of the world after the end of the third epoch."
"With this step, the process of achieving Great Divine Power is more than halfway to its end, and the finish line is within sight."
"But all this doesn’t take into account the Primordial Waters, because I’m also uncertain about how powerful it is, or how much I can draw back from it."
Far across distant time and space, when the Demon Sword was plunged into the Primordial Waters, the endless power had already started to backflow into the fifth layer of the Spirit Realm through an invisible connection. @@novelbin@@
In cycle after cycle, the strength of the Elemental Planes of earth, water, wind, and fire also continued to expand.
Laine even wondered if the Spirit Realm drew enough power from the Primordial Waters, whether the future Principal Gods of the four Elemental Planes could reach the Great Domain merely by virtue of this power within the Spirit Realm — at least touching this realm within the Spirit Realm.
After all, his understanding of the Primordial Waters was too shallow, and much had to be guessed.
"However, this also proves that perhaps the Mother Tree is stronger than I thought, just shackled by too many chains."
"No wonder She can partially corrupt a True God, even Chaos’s Sun cannot escape a calamity."
"But this is good, this one stroke with the Creation Force has also made it clear to me that, even with the help of external forces, one must be strong enough themselves to harness its Might to the fullest extent."
"If I were standing at the pinnacle of Great Divine Power when delivering this strike, maybe my own strength would be negligible to the Creation Domain, but my control over it would be much stronger. Perhaps I could have taken the opportunity to eliminate a considerable portion of Amon-Ra’s existence on the spot, rather than just a small participatory existence."

Exhaling, Laine closed his eyes slightly, and after a short while, opened them again.
The past is past, and all in all, Hemenu was like a considerable treasury, indeed providing him with a great harvest.
However, there’s a key to turning these gains into reality.
That is the Chaos World, the conclusion of the third epoch.
