Greece: I am Zeus!

Chapter 122 The Dark Ocean
"Under the brutal rule of the ancient god-king Cronus, you were mercilessly devoured and plunged into darkness and despair."

"However, within my new order, you will regain the honor you deserve, and you will gain far greater power and honor than before!"

He looked at Hades and Poseidon, and said with both majesty and affection: "My dear brothers, my steadfast comrades, my closest kin! I will share with you the highest glory of the universe, and let your radiance shine with mine, forever!"

Zeus slowly raised his eyes, looking down upon the entire world: "From this day forward, the world will be clearly divided into the Three Realms and the Three Domains."

"The Three Realms are the Heavenly Realm (Sky), the Earthly Realm (Earth), and the Netherworld Realm (Netherworld); the Three Regions are the Earth, the Sea, and the Ocean."

"From then on, the Three Realms and Three Domains, the universe was clearly divided, each with its own duties and powers."

Zeus first turned his gaze to Gaia, the mother goddess of all things, his voice filled with sincere respect and unwavering commitment: "The earth is forever the authority of the mother goddess, and no god may overstep it!"

Then, He looked at Oceanus, the god of the ocean, and said sincerely, "Respected ocean currents, I will always remember your contributions to me. I will surely fulfill my promise!"

The moment Zeus finished speaking, the once clear and bright sky suddenly began to change color.

Endless dark clouds surged in from all directions like a black torrent, quickly piling up and obscuring the dome of the vast world. The light of the entire world was swallowed up, becoming dim and heavy.

Endless, terrifying thunder began to rumble deep within the clouds, shaking the entire universe once again. Its absolute divine power made the whole world tremble.

Blinding flashes of lightning raged through the dark clouds, each glint clearly illuminating the outline of the entire world and the horrified, awe-inspiring faces of the gods within the temple.

The gods were still pondering what Zeus meant by the Three Realms and Three Domains, and before they could react, they saw Zeus pull this stunt, their eyes filled with shock and bewilderment!

There was even terror!

Weren't we supposed to be cutting the cake?!

Why did they suddenly bring out such terrifying lightning?!
You're not going to treat everyone to this, are you?!

At this moment, all living beings in the universe felt the overwhelming supreme divine power.

Without even considering fleeing, they all faced the direction of Mount Olympus with the utmost respect and devotion, worshipping this supreme power of thunder.

Prepare to face the destiny that Zeus, the Lord of Thunder, is about to bestow upon them.

Whether it's good or bad.

Everything must obey Zeus's will, and obey the destiny and future bestowed by Zeus.

This terrifying power has even directly affected the normal operation of the universe. All the laws of the universe are now slowing down and becoming stagnant under the pressure of the thunder.

Everything that seemed incredibly powerful became so insignificant, tiny, and fragile in the face of this endless thunder.

Many gods, witnessing this apocalyptic scene, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and tremble violently from their perfect and powerful divine bodies. The divinity deep within their laws was also trembling uncontrollably.

Even though they are immortal gods, even though their bodies are spotless and flawless, they still cannot help but exhibit all sorts of chaotic and strange phenomena.

Because of their deep-seated fear.

Because they had witnessed firsthand how this power of thunder nearly destroyed the entire world, plunging it back into chaos.

Because they witnessed with their own eyes how Cronus, the once arrogant and self-proclaimed invincible king of the gods, was forcibly struck into the endless abyss by this truly invincible thunder.

Such a grand spectacle, which terrified and trembled the gods, was deliberately orchestrated by Zeus.

He wants to constantly and clearly tell the gods that he is such an invincible being, and that his power can easily change everything!
So don't push your luck!

Don't even think about challenging my divine power!

I, Zeus, have already given you enough dignity and glory, so you must continue and cherish this dignity!

Only in this way can everyone maintain their dignity!

Any god who wants to embarrass Zeus has better take a good look at the lightning above his head and think carefully before making a decision!

Zeus sat serenely on his throne atop Olympus, lightning flashing across his resolute expression, undisturbed.

He didn't even get up; with a thought, all the etheric elements in the universe moved according to His will, converging into an incredible torrent of energy that surged toward the four corners of the world and began to sweep across the entire universe.

Like a storm whipping up sand and gravel, a massive amount of lightning and plasma poured down from the dark clouds along the edge of the world.

The power of creation and destruction coexist, causing everything in the world to change color.

The pure water currents of the ocean, adjacent to the world, were all transformed by the creative power contained within the thunder under its baptism.

Endless etheric elements, perfectly combined with the power of thunder, began a grand transformation beneath the pure water, which contained boundless energy. The rhythm of life and the breath of life began to emerge from the edge of the earth, and on the side adjacent to the earth, the originally pure and clean ocean water miraculously turned into salty seawater.

The ocean was born!

Between the vast ocean currents and the world's continents, there exists a boundless sea that can sustain life and nurture all things, adding a new dimension and infinite possibilities to the world.

Zeus, not satisfied with that, slowly rose to his feet.

With a sudden wave of his hand, even more lightning bolts, like countless roaring dragons, rushed towards the edge of the ocean current, heading straight for the void and chaos that was intertwined with the primordial chaos and had not been completely assimilated by the laws.

Originally entangled with ocean currents, it was slowly and laboriously transformed by the pure ocean water into a void of chaos—the kind of chaotic void that can devour and erode everything, the most terrifying kind of chaos.

They were all "shattered" under Zeus's roaring thunder, their formless and ethereal bodies completely disintegrated.

Tartarus was swiftly repelled, the boundary of reality was forcibly pushed open, and the ocean currents began to flow more rapidly and powerfully, expanding outward at a speed many times faster than before.

In the blink of an eye, in the face of Zeus’s absolute power, the diameter of the entire world had nearly doubled again, something that Oceanus could not achieve even after countless years of painstaking effort.

In Zeus's hands, the entire world, the entire universe, was nothing more than a clay sculpture whose structure he could alter at will.

This is the supreme ruler who truly controls everything—Zeus, the king of the gods!
Under the relentless bombardment of endless thunder, the newly formed ocean and the ancient ocean currents expanded outward together with the falling lightning, an unstoppable force.

Only when the newly opened ocean had reached nearly half the width of the land did this invincible god-king slowly retract His omnipotent thunder.

However, the thick, dark clouds still lingered, densely shrouding the entire world, foreshadowing that the new god-king's grand plan was not yet fully complete.

Zeus then turned to Gaia, the mother goddess of all things, calm and composed, as if nothing had happened at all, despite the magnificent and awe-inspiring events that had just occurred.

He said calmly, "Honorable Mother Goddess of All Things, please separate the earth. I want to add another layer of space to the world to perfect the structure of the existing world."

Even Gaia, the mother goddess of all things, had no intention of stopping Zeus's idea at this moment.

Even though she has no idea what Zeus is trying to do, and cannot even fully comprehend his intentions.

Even if she was unwilling to admit it, the instinctive tremor deep within her divinity could not be stopped.

She was indeed a little scared.

The earth obediently and with a thunderous roar split open, as if an ancient scroll had been torn in two, revealing the endless, deep darkness beneath.

A satisfied smile appeared on Zeus's majestic face as he nodded gently to Gaia: "Thank you for your support."

As he spoke, His majestic body instantly transformed into countless bolts of lightning, carrying unparalleled energy, and plunged into the abyss of the cracked earth.

In the endless darkness underground, an incomparably majestic and enormous thunder god appeared, his golden eyes like two burning giant stars.

The invincible God-King once again unleashed His invincible thunderbolts, illuminating every corner of the dark abyss!
Under the oppressive force of the thunder, the chaotic void instinctively felt boundless fear and trembling. Tartarus retreated rapidly, not daring to confront the incomparably powerful thunder of the God-King.

As the underground dark space rapidly expanded and extended, an incredibly bright bolt of lightning, as if splitting the heavens and earth, pierced through the eternal darkness and broke the boundaries of space.

The pure water of the outermost ocean currents of the world and the sea was now drawn over by Zeus with his supreme divine power, cascading down like an inverted Milky Way, flowing into the newly formed underground space.

The pure material energy of the ocean currents combined with the profound darkness. The originally formless and intangible darkness, under the tempering of thunder and the nourishment of pure water, began to truly take shape and form a framework of material existence, no longer a void.

Thus, a completely new world, as vast as the earth itself, emerged.

The Netherworld was born.

It opened up the depths of the world's underground, becoming the ultimate destination for all living beings.

From then on, the world was completely perfected, and its structure became flawless.

The vertical structure represents the sky (celestial realm), the earth (earthly realm), and the netherworld (the netherworld); the radial structure represents the earth, the sea, and the ocean.

All structures are a trinity, transforming into the three realms and three domains described by Zeus. The entire world structure is now flawless and extremely stable.

Furthermore, the way ocean currents exert their influence on the world was completely altered by Zeus's immense power.

The original ocean currents were directly connected to the world, constantly opening up the chaotic void, transforming it into matter, and continuously strengthening the world.

But now a new ocean has emerged between the ocean currents and the world, and Zeus certainly wouldn't allow the substances transformed from the ocean currents to continuously strengthen the ocean.
