Chapter 140: The Ball of Nothingness, Gaia was tricked and became lame!
1
Before the seven Seraphim were born and Hemera, the goddess of day, and other gods left, Tartarus contacted Hemera with his divine thoughts.
Let her return to the underworld and inform the goddess of memory, Mnemosyne, to contact Gaia and ask the latter to come to the underworld.
Just returned from space, Tartarus is sensing it.
At this moment, Kronos, the god of space, had already hidden the sky power barrier from Uranus.
A space channel was built to the underworld, above the River of Forgotten, Let.
Deep in the Lete River, the water in an area of one kilometer was pushed away.
The space fluctuates, and Tartarus appears.
Afterwards, he activated the dimensional divine power and also created a space channel to connect to Kronos's space channel.
In a blink of an eye, Gaia, the Earth Mother, flew rapidly through the space channel and appeared in front of Tartarus.
Gaia's body naturally radiated a white halo, and he revealed a gentle smile: "Long time no see, brother Tartarus. First of all, congratulations on creating a new god."
"You asked my daughter, Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory, to contact me. Do you need more earth essence and divine power?"
Tartarus did not tell Mnemosyne that the artifact had been successfully created.
Of course, Gaia doesn't know yet.
The more critical the moment, the more careful you have to be.
He really used his memory to tell the other side that the artifact was successfully built. In the middle of the process, Gaia was very excited and was discovered by Uranus.
If I really can't come here, then all my efforts in building the Tree of Life would have been in vain.
After all, Tartarus didn't want the Tree of Life to take root in the underworld and slow down its growth.
Being nice to the gods of the underworld is only possible if one is strong enough.
If it affects one's own strength, that's another matter.
"Sister Gaia, long time no see. I don't need your origin and divine power this time." Tartarus replied. Then, a ball of nothingness appeared in his hand, revealing a crystal clear pocket-sized version of the Tree of Life inside.
"This is? Success!?" Gaia's eyes showed surprise.
Covered by the ball of nothingness, there is currently no breath coming out from inside.
At the same time, Gaia's divine consciousness was unable to detect any powerful force within it.
Just looking at the outside, she wasn't sure what was inside.
But she felt that it was most likely that divine weapon.
Otherwise, Tartarus would not have taken it out.
Tartarus smiled and nodded: "Yes, the artifact was successfully created."
As soon as he finished speaking, he removed the cover of the ball of nothingness.
In an instant, the Tree of Life in the transparent crystal ball released an incomparably powerful breath of life.
"This artifact! Such a powerful vitality!" Gaia exclaimed in surprise.
In the Chaos world, Gaia, as the earth itself, is the god who controls the most laws of life.
Gods are eternal and immortal. Their divine power varies in levels, and the life force within them also varies in levels.
Gaia, the earth, is the being with the strongest life force among all the gods.
Her divine body also has the most powerful life force among all the current gods' divine bodies.
In contrast, Tartarus, the essence of the abyss, has the weakest life force among all the gods.
Of course, he is the one with the strongest destructive power.
And at this moment, I felt the aura of this divine weapon.
> Gaia was not only surprised, but even shocked.
The vitality released by this artifact is far stronger than her divine body.
At the same time, if the earth does not release the strongest breath of life, it is not as powerful as the breath of life released by the artifact in front of us.
Gaia felt such a powerful breath of life, although she had not yet tried the efficacy of this artifact.
But she was 90% sure that Tartarus had succeeded.

Chapter 140: Ball of Nothingness, Gaia was tricked and became lame!
Based on her understanding of gods, origins, and laws.
Obviously, the power of destruction will hurt the gods and affect their growth.
On the contrary, the life force will heal the gods and make their injuries recover quickly.
Restoring the growth rate that has been slowed down due to injury can also be considered an improvement in growth rate.
Naturally, when the life force becomes strong enough, it will most likely accelerate the growth of the gods.
At this time, Tartarus said: "Its name is the Tree of Life, or it can also be called the Tree of Life."
"Unlike ordinary divine artifacts, this is not a material artifact, but a law artifact."
"The Tree of Life is not used for fighting, but is used to increase the growth rate of the gods."
As he spoke, the Ball of Nothingness left Tartarus's palm and flew in front of Gaia.
"Thank you, brother Tartarus. Your efforts will be remembered by me and the children." Gaia said excitedly.
She quickly stretched out her hands and held the crystal ball.
Gazing at the crystal-clear tree, Gaia's divine consciousness penetrated into it, carefully sensing this artifact...
It was too sudden.
In her opinion, a divine weapon that can increase the growth rate of gods must be extremely difficult to create.
She thought it was normal that it took Tartarus hundreds of years to build.
Unexpectedly, less than a hundred years had passed and Tartarus had been successfully built.
In her perception, Gaia determined that this artifact, the Tree of Life, was not simple.
Currently, the breath of life it exudes is not at its strongest state, but only at its initial stage.
Tartarus said at the right moment: "The tree of life can take root anywhere."
"Space, the underworld, the abyss, the sky, the earth, the ocean, even in darkness and night."
"After the Tree of Life takes root, it mainly absorbs the elements of earth, fire, water, and wind that exist in the world of Chaos."
"And attract the power of various laws, using them as nutrients to grow into the Tree of Life."
"When the Tree of Life absorbs nutrients to saturation, it will produce ninety-nine fruits of life."
"After the fruit of life is picked, it will enter the next stage of nourishment, growth, flowering, and ultimately fruiting."
"Fruit of Life?" Gaia looked at Tartarus and asked curiously, "What are its effects?"
Tartarus said, "For gods below the peak power stage, eating a fruit of life will increase their growth rate ten to twenty times within ten years."
"A god at the peak of divine power, after consuming a fruit of life, will increase his growth rate by two to five times within ten years."
"This is related to the stage of divine power the deity is in and the upper limit of its potential."
"The weaker the strength, the higher the growth rate. The higher the potential limit, the higher the growth rate."
"For example, a god of medium or weaker power. After eating a fruit of life, their growth rate will increase twenty times within ten years."
"And gods at the powerful divine power stage, such as Kronos, the god of space, and a Cyclops, also ate a fruit of life."
"Kronos's growth rate is likely twenty times higher than the highest. After all, he has one of the highest potential ceilings among the gods below us."
"And the Cyclops' growth rate could be twelve times, or even ten times at the very least."
"Similarly, at the peak divine power stage, for example, if our primordial gods ate the Fruit of Life, their growth rate should increase fivefold within ten years."
"After all, we are the gods with the highest potential in the current Chaos world."
"And if the Hundred-Armed Giant eats the Fruit of Life, it will most likely double its growth rate."
"So that's how it is." Gaia exclaimed in amazement, "This truly has greatly increased the growth rate of the gods."
She thought to herself, "Someone like Kronos has the highest potential. Ten years is equivalent to two hundred years of growth."
"If this continues for a hundred years, it would be equivalent to a growth rate of two thousand years. In just a few hundred years, he might be able to reach the peak of his divine power."
"Moreover, the boost to strength provided by the Fruit of Life far exceeds the increase in the growth rate of a god's own domain."
"Then, if my two children of the Sea God eat this fruit of life."
"They will no longer be satisfied. With the sea areas they currently control, the benefits Uranus has given them are naturally not much."
"By then, they should also take the initiative to stand on my side. If I join forces with the ten Titan gods, my chances of winning will be even higher."
"The Tree of Life in Tartarus has solved my two biggest problems. I must control the Tree of Life."
At this time, Tartarus said: "Sister Gaia, I will plant this fruit of life in the underworld and make it begin to grow."
"It should bear fruit for the first time within a hundred years. When that happens, you can come to the underworld and take away eleven fruits of life."

Chapter 140: The Ball of Nothingness, Gaia was tricked and became lame!
"These belong to you and your ten Titan children."
Gaia frowned slightly, and then his brows relaxed in an instant.
She looked at Tartarus with an embarrassed look and said, "Brother Tartarus, you know."
"The sky god, Uranus, is cruel and selfish. For his own sake, he imprisoned the heavens, the earth, and the oceans, and robbed my hundred-armed giant child of his divine power."
"Afterwards, seal the sun's true form and deprive Kronos and Hyperion of their divine artifacts."
"I have sent down giant gods to watch over my Titan children."
"We don't know what he'll do to harm us in the future. The world is extremely dangerous right now."
"My children urgently need to improve their strength so that they can better ensure their own safety."
"Comparatively, the underworld, space, and the abyss under your management are very safe, and the Midnight Gods are not in great danger."
"So, eleven is too few for us, and you don't need eighty-eight."
"Please provide us with more fruits of life!"
Tartarus also looked embarrassed.
He said, "Sister Gaia, what you paid was two oracle tablets."
"And I spent decades to create this artifact."
"Although it's been less than a hundred years, during this period, I've been consuming my divine power and spirit every day and every moment."
"Because of this, I haven't grown at all in the past few decades, and my strength has stagnated."
Tartarus certainly didn't tell the truth.
He continued to create artifacts, mainly because the fusion of various laws and forces was slow.
It doesn't consume much of his spiritual power and mental energy, and it doesn't affect his growth.
However, the only one who truly understood the important details was Tartarus, the creator.
After a brief pause, Tartarus continued, "You should understand that your current strength is inferior to Uranus'."
"So, as long as you don't actively challenge Uranus, he won't attack you again. After all, on the surface, you're in this together."
"But I'm different. You know Uranus. He has been hostile to me since he was born."
"He constantly yearns to conquer the underworld. If I don't grow and become stronger, he will grow and become stronger, and the danger to me will naturally increase."
"I took great risks to create this artifact. Besides, in the Chaos world, I am the only one who can fight against Uranus."
"If I am suddenly defeated in the near future, this world will be controlled by Uranus."
"Do you want such a cruel and selfish God-King to rule this world?"
Gaia frowned and said, "You are indeed taking a great risk. Uranus's current strength has increased significantly compared to earlier."
Tartarus continued, "Yes! I am taking a great risk. Also, you need the help of ten gods."
"And my underworld currently has more than forty gods who need my help."
"So, if you want more, it's a bit difficult."
"After all, the Tree of Life is rooted in the underworld, although it mainly absorbs the elements and laws of the world of Chaos."
"But it will also absorb the elements and laws of the underworld, thus affecting my growth."
"At the same time, among the gods to whom I offer the Fruit of Life are the mountain god Uriah and the sea god Pontus."
"Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory, and Themis, the goddess of justice."
"And three Cyclops, three Hecto-Armed Giants, ten gods in total. These are your children."
"I believe that the gods are free and can choose any way they want to live."
"Because of Uranus, they are all my Midnight Gods now, but what if Uranus is gone in the future?"
"They may continue to live in the underworld, or they may return to the earth. I am not sure whether they will stay or go."
The next few sentences reminded Gaia.
Gaia fell into deep thought, thinking, "Tartarus is right. I've overlooked this for hundreds of years."
> "Now ten of my children live on earth, and ten live in the underworld."
"Before Uranus was deified again, most of them were earth gods."
"It was Uranus who made them sense danger and leave the earth and enter the underworld."
"Besides, even if they enter, they don't decide to stay in the underworld forever."
"Like Mnemosyne, the goddess of memory, she doesn't always deliver messages from Tartarus, right?"

"She became Tartarus's lover, and she still occasionally tells me and the children about the underworld."

"Mnemosyne cares about us."
"And Pontus, who was originally the keeper of peace between the earth and the underworld, also cares about me."
"I'm overthinking it. Even if these ten gods choose Mingye, they are still my children after all."
"I shouldn't completely ignore them just because they left the earth."
"They will leave the earth and return to it in the future. I have to care about them."
After figuring this out, Gaia looked at Tartarus.
She said, "Brother Tartarus, the Tree of Life has taken root in the underworld and will affect your growth rate."
"Let's try a different approach and let the Tree of Life take root in the earth. This way, it won't affect your growth."
"This will affect my growth rate, so I should take more, right?"
"Every time the result comes out, I take 33 and you take 66."
"Then you must ensure the safety of Pontus, Mnemosyne, and the other ten children of mine who live in the underworld."
"Every god gets at least one fruit of life."
Tartarus smiled helplessly and said, "Sister Gaia, I've been spreading the knowledge of numbers and calculations across the land, and your calculation ability has improved significantly!"
"It looks like thirty-three, but you actually took forty-three."
"The Tree of Life takes root in the underworld, given to you and your children. I only need to take out twenty-one. There are still seventy-eight left."
"The Tree of Life is rooted in the earth, so I only have fifty-six left, which means I'm missing twenty-one."
"I created this artifact myself, but I'm the one who suffered the most losses. I can't accept this."
Gaia said, "Brother Tartarus, since we are collaborating, we naturally need to state our terms and conditions. You can state the amount you wish to contribute."
Tartarus said, "You took a total of thirty-two, and each time you took twenty-two."
"Then I promise that each of your ten children living in the underworld will receive at least one Fruit of Life."
"Sister Gaia, you care about your child, and I care about mine. We can't deviate too much."
"Even if there are twenty-two, each of the ten Titan gods and you can get two Fruits of Life."
"As for me, Mingye and I, neither Nyx nor I want the Fruit of Life."
"There are still many Midnight Gods who can only obtain one Fruit of Life. Later, I will have to find a way to solve this problem."
"I can't let them go without. So, you taking a total of thirty-two is the lowest limit I can accept."
Gaia looked at Tartarus and fell silent.
She thought to herself, "In total, I have gained less than Tartarus."
"But based on the average harvest of the gods, each Titan god on earth received two Fruits of Life."
"Among the forty-plus Dark Night Gods currently, some will not be able to obtain two Fruits of Life."
"If Tartarus chooses to give only one fruit of life to earth gods like Pontus living in the underworld."
"In the future, this will be the reason why they leave the underworld."
"If Tartarus only gave one to some of his children, this would be a source of dissatisfaction among the gods."
"Invisibly, I have created a difficulty for him. Thirty-two pills is indeed enough."
"After all, I only provided the oracle tablets that were useless to me and some origins and divine power."
"If Tartarus didn't agree to create the artifact, I wouldn't have given so little. With such a huge reward, I can't be too greedy."
After a moment of silent thought, Gaia looked at Tartarus and nodded, "Okay, then we'll divide it up according to your numbers!"
Then she continued, "Tartarus, if the Tree of Life took root in the earth, would it emit the same breath of life as it does now?"
"This appearance is too exaggerated. If Uranus senses it, there's no guarantee he won't snatch it away. Is there any way to conceal it?"
Tartarus said, "Of course there is. Now you hold not only the Tree of Life, but also a divine artifact wrapped around this divine artifact of law."
"The Sphere of Nothingness. Its sole function is to possess an extremely strong concealing ability."
"Any spirit or object enclosed by the sphere of nothingness will have its divine thoughts, divine power, and laws all shrouded in nothingness. It will be imperceptible to the outside world."
"So, after the Tree of Life takes root in the center of the earth, it will be shielded by the Sphere of Nothingness, making it undetectable to other gods."
"Even Uranus cannot sense the existence of the Tree of Life. Like..."
"At most, he will sense that the earth is absorbing more of the power of the elemental laws of Chaos' world."
"He'll suspect that your growth rate might be increasing."

"If he's afraid that you're stronger than him and will hurt you, then it makes sense that you absorbed more."
"I understand." Gaia felt much more relieved.
She looked at Tartarus and smiled happily. "We are one step closer to success. It's a pleasure to work with you, brother Tartarus."
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Sister Gaia." Tartarus smiled.
Afterwards, Gaia stepped into the space channel and quickly left the underworld...
Deep in the earth.
Soon, the other eight Titan gods gathered in the hall.
"Mother Goddess, you suddenly notified us of your arrival. Is there something important?" Hyperion asked anxiously.
