Myth: The Ruler of Spirituality-Chapter 707 - 251 New Saint
Chapter 707: Chapter 251 New Saint
“The speed is indeed fast.”
On the now empty Sea of Origin, as the Pillar of Thoth gradually dissolved, his form also began to crack like shattered porcelain.

From small pieces to large chunks, like scattering cherry blossoms, the fragments that fell were submerged in the ‘ocean’, not raising a single ripple.
Quietly waiting for his own death and rebirth, from then on, he would no longer exist in the world as an Egyptian God.
Perhaps for a brief time, he would become a mortal with extraordinary power and lifespan, or maybe soon… he could find an opportunity in an Alien Realm to become a new god.
For a moment, Thoth’s mood was a mix of relaxation and heaviness, for not everyone enjoys the feeling of starting all over again. Yet, just when he was enjoying this final moment of peace, a voice suddenly came from beside him.
“…Thoth, you are going to die too.”
The voice was soft, but Thoth immediately recognized its owner.
It was Nephthys, the guardian deity of the deceased, the protector of homes, and the last of the Nine Pillars Spirit.
“I am going to die?”
Turning around, he hadn’t noticed before. It wasn’t until she spoke that Thoth unexpectedly remembered her.
Nephthys seemed to have remained silent ever since she arrived on the Sea of Origin, never uttering a word.
She carried out any task that fell upon her but never voiced her opinion. Until just now, it seemed as though she had spoken for the first time.
“Ha ha, Nephthys, never mind me; you and your husband are truly different. Set charged fearlessly against the Outer Gods, while you chose to silently await the arrival of death.”
With a smile on his face, Thoth didn’t mind chatting with a former colleague for the last time: “Ah—sorry… Nephthys, I almost forgot, you and Set never actually became husband and wife.”
“That’s another mess brought by Isis, so is this because of your godhood, as the protector of the deceased, have you come to regard life and decay with equanimity?”
“No, the fear between life and death, I am far from having seen through it, and neither has the god La. Even though the world itself does not wish to perish, how could I possibly do so?”
Shaking her head gently, Nephthys repeated, “Thoth, you are going to die too.”
“No, I won’t die. The apparent death is not actually absolute, just like Isis, everyone thought she was dead.”
Smiling as he explained, Thoth’s body fragmented even more rapidly.
He felt the fate and divine power of ‘Nine Pillar God Thoth’ receding from him, but this was the very proof of his rebirth.
“Speaking of which, if I remember correctly, you and Isis were sisters. Had it not been for the invasion of the Alien Realm, you would have married Set after she married Osiris, becoming his wife.”
“Unfortunately, due to the catastrophe from beyond our domain, all that came to an end… As the mind of the god Ra, I once heard him mention a corner of the future. You and Isis were meant to have a son each, renowned in the Mortal Realm—one celebrated in the world of the living, the other immortalized in the realm of the dead. But in the face of the world’s power, fate seems so pale and powerless.”
“Your current mindset, however, seems quite good, a mortal dies as a mortal should, and gods should have their own manner of death. Dying in such a disgraceful manner as Shu did at the end of his life is not fitting for a god.”
“Just like me, if death is inevitable, I would face it undauntedly.”
His body had dissipated, only his head still speaking. Thoth looked up at the sky, wanting to see the legendary Outer Gods in his final moments.
But unfortunately, he saw nothing.
“Anyway, I will remember you, Nephthys, for in these last moments of my life, you were the one who accompanied me through this journey… all that is Egypt will be deeply etched in my memory, to be forever cherished. From now till the end of the ages.”
Patter—
With a final faint echo, Thoth’s form completely shattered into pieces.
Fragments scattered like rain across the sky, leaving behind only the divine authority he once possessed.
This power, once carried by his ‘Ka’, seemed a bit at a loss, for its master, in theory, had not died, yet their connection was weakening.
A hint of black and gold light swirled around it, as an early player among the Divine Pillars, this power from the world would not dissipate before Thoth utterly ‘failed’.
But now, on Hemenu’s boundless Sea of Origin, only Nephthys was left alone.
“…”
“…I already told you, Thoth…”
“…You are going to die too.”
Shaking her head slightly, she lay back on the last Divine Pillar in the Sea of Origin.
Thoth saw nothing before, but Nephthys’s view was somewhat different; from an infinite height, she could vaguely see a standoff between two gods.
Immense and boundless powers fell from the Void towards another ‘god La’, with his influence and size in the entire world rising every second. Opposing him was the invading Outer God.
“…Death…”
“Everything must meet its end.”
Chanting softly, Goddess Nephthys remained serene.
“I wonder on which day I will die?”
Boom—
One moment calm, the next, the world turned upside down.
From the infinite heights, the power of the Outer God fell from the sky, piercing through the space recently gathered by the Nine Pillars as if puncturing a thin sheet of paper.
In an instant, Nephthys was reduced to ashes before it.
And the power of the gods did not halt due to her death; it continued downward, towards the Mortal Realm.
