"Then it's no longer sothing that talent can accomplish. Forget it; the world has been shattered for so long that the knowledge in my mind might already be outdated."
The Flower Fairy replied, as if comforting herself.
Then the Flower Fairy's voice ca through, "I can't leave here now; I need to wait for a while. Once I can co out, I will have them look for you, and then I'll give you the promised reward."
"No problem, I'll take my leave then."
Alka said, as his figure vanished from the spot and returned to his body.
He opened his eyes and looked around; nothing seed different.
The Great Gardener looked at him, "Has our god fallen into Deep Sleep?"
Alka nodded and then took his leave.
Walking alone back to the Flower Forest, his thoughts had long drifted far away.
The knowledge from the mysterious patterns he had seen in the Dream Realm still echoed in his mind. The shock they brought him was far greater than he had just expressed; he wasn't as calm as he had appeared earlier. The so-called path to godhood was more difficult than he imagined. But this difficulty was actually to be expected, since the formula he'd been given earlier had seed far too simple. At least for sothing like becoming a god, it was indeed too simple. Just as he'd previously thought, the formula he knew before was just the most basic information. Beyond that, there were other conditions. What he had just co to understand was that the next-Level condition was that these six Treasures of different Levels must not reject each other.
Simply put, for most people possessing a Scepter Level Treasure, the Holy Grail Level Treasure they once had was likely incompatible with their Scepter Level Treasure. It's just that because the Scepter's Level is higher, it can easily suppress the Holy Grail Level Treasure, forcibly preventing conflicts and allowing them to coexist within the sa person. Following this line of reasoning, he realized the Crown Level likely followed the sa principle. But if one wanted to beco a god, that approach wouldn't work. They must be compatible, or at least not conflicting.
At the Holy Grail Level, making Treasures compatible was already seen as extrely difficult. Not to ntion, there had to be compatibility between Treasures of different Levels, or at the very least, they mustn't reject each other. Perhaps the first three Holy Grail Treasures and two Scepter Treasures might be relatively easier to align. But for the final Crown Treasure to be compatible with the preceding five, the Difficulty was understandably imnse. Thinking about it now, it made sense why so few people had beco gods in the tens of thousands of years since the Divine War and the world's shattering; it actually seed quite normal. He just didn't know if there were any power requirents for becoming a god. But it had to be at least above the Sixth Stage. Because only those at the Sixth Stage possessed the power to wield a Crown Level Treasure.
Alka's thoughts, however, delved even deeper. If the fundantal requirent for becoming a god truly was these six Treasures from three different Levels, that would an these Treasures, apart from possibly being the essence of a deceased divine creature, might also be remnants of Divines who had perished completely. For example, the heart of the Celestial Flower he had just received. That was also a piece of Divine Essence, and only Holy Grail Level at that. But previous information had clearly stated it had been secretly hidden by the Flower Fairy.
When the Divine Essence rged into the Celestial Flower, Alka had actually seen more through those patterns in the Dream Realm. He just hadn't revealed everything because what he'd seen made it very clear to him that it couldn't be spoken aloud. He had almost deciphered the entire aning expressed by the patterns. The patterns also expressed another aning: that of returning, of becoming perfect. Based on what he had seen and what the patterns expressed, his understanding was that the Divine Essence must have originally belonged to the Flower Fairy. It was almost certainly a part she had lost upon her fall, now rely returning to its original owner.
And Alka had seen sothing even more secret. He had seen three lights of different colors. Specifically, one red and two orange. When the final Divine Essence fully rged, becoming a bud, Alka had also seen a golden one. However, before he could see the golden flower clearly, the patterns vanished, and he could no longer see anything.
This made things abundantly clear. If the standard recipe for becoming a god required Treasures represented by lights, then it would be one red, two orange, and three golden—six compatible Treasures in total. The Flower Fairy, who was currently reawakening, had already obtained one red and two orange lights—the three most important and powerful components. Combined with the current golden one, this ant that once she possessed the other two golden Divinities that originally belonged to her, she should be able to fully reawaken. And the red light was what Alka had initially sensed—the unique flower. That had to be her core.
He had seen far more than the Flower Fairy could have imagined. He had almost completely seen through her. The Flower Fairy could never have imagined he could see so much; she had already been astonished rely knowing Alka could perceive more, however vaguely. She had likely only intended for him to observe from the side, to see those divine patterns, so he could begin to understand higher-Level powers sooner.
