Chapter 1844: Immortals vs True Immortals

'So that means most of these Immortals are like hounds who can bark and bite when they are on their turf but become a scared cat when they leave.'

Eren thought to himself and chuckled.

Of course, he made sure to maintain a stoic face in front of the goddess, not letting her know that he was comparing her and others like her to dogs.

"Although Immortal Fall rarely happens, there are many cases in the past in which the Immortals died right after leaving their Immortal Planes. Some were plotted against. Others met unfortunate ends due to other reasons."

The goddess said as she looked at Eren. She took one last sip of the tea from her cup and relished its taste on her tongue for a bit before carrying on.

"Who would want to die after working so hard to become an immortal? So the Immortals develop their own ways to explore mortal lands for various purposes. Some want to spread their faith while others are looking for certain opportunities.

The clones and avatars we make are a way for us to protect ourselves while enabling us to explore the boundless cosmos. So naturally, we invest a lot of our resources in such projects," the goddess explained.

"Hm? What kind of opportunities would an Immortal find in the mortal planes?" Eren asked curiously.

"You ask that because you don't understand how lucky mortals are," the goddess shook her head before saying further.

"Put it this way, when an Immortal dares to leave their home turf, it probably has to be an opportunity related to becoming an Elder God, a True Immortal. Although there are a few exceptions, no Immortal would leave their den to protect their followers.

After all, we can always look for some other worlds to spread our faith in inside the boundless cosmos. You remember what happened to Anfang in the past right?" the goddess asked and smiled wryly.

The Goddess Great Mother also had invested a lot of effort in Anfang when the God Vulcan decided to ruin that world for her. She obviously wasn't happy when that happened. However, Anfang was just one world. And after it had been turned into a ruin, the goddess also had to prioritize her own interests.

"True Immortal," Eren mumbled to himself, his gaze practically screaming at the Goddess Great Mother to make him understand the concept.

The goddess pursed her lips before speaking further.

"Let's just say that when someone becomes an Immortal, they need the faith energy more than ever to sustain their Immortal Plane. The term Origin Force has a profound yet simpler meaning. It is the energy required to form and maintain worlds and planes of existence.

Without the Origin Force, no world can originate from the void. And without a consistent supply of the Origin Force, the plane of existence will collapse, forcing the Immortals to come out of their so-called impregnable forts.

The mortal planes have mortal laws, which forces the Immortals to obey their commands to a large extent. As such, the Immortal can be killed when their real forms appear in the mortal planes.

However, True Immortals are different; they don't have to maintain their Immortal Planes to sustain their Immortality. As such, they are not dependent on mortals' faith to stay Immortals," the goddess explained with unhurried words.

"So let me guess. You want to become a True Immortal?" Eren asked. The goddess nodded before adding further.

"That's right. Although I am a lot more powerful than the newly ascended Immortals, I still have a long way to go before I can call myself a true powerhouse in the Celestial Hall.

There are many Immortals like me who have bigger dreams. Becoming a pantheon god is the first step to becoming a True Immortal. The second step is to forge their Immortal forms in True Immortal Laws.

If the Immortal Writs are applicable to one's home turf alone, the True Immortal Writs are basically an all-access pass for the True Immortals to wield their powers with undisputed might and authority.

However, the conditions for becoming a True Immortal are different for everyone, depending upon their divinity and their Individuality. As such, the Immortals are often left with one option to look for chances and opportunities in the mortal planes and ruined Immortal Planes by using the avatars to our advantage."

"And that's why you created a clone for yourself? To look for an opportunity in the boundless cosmos that can allow you to become a True Immortal?" Eren asked, slowly putting the pieces of the puzzle together.

"That's right," the goddess nodded and chuckled in self-

disappointment before speaking further. "At that time, I had this crazy idea of following God Aleph's footsteps. The creation of a natal clone was made so that I could mimic his actions," the goddess said while looking at Eren knowingly.

"Follow God Aleph's footsteps? Are you talking about his abominated divinity?" Eren guessed.

"Wait. Was God Aleph an Immortal or a True Immortal?". Eren had so many questions in his head that he couldn't prioritize them properly. The goddess didn't seem to mind. She collected her thoughts before speaking further.

"God Aleph was already an Elder God by the time I became an Immortal," the goddess explained.

"It is said that he was one of the few Elder Gods who had survived an ancient divine catastrophe that had resulted in the falls of many True Immortals.

It wouldn't have been possible for him to create not one but seven planes of existence with his divine powers if he wasn't an exceptionally powerful Elder God.

Can you imagine how powerful he was? When an Immortal creates one plane, they consider themselves to be the overlord of their own turf.

However, God Aleph had the power to unify the demonic powers by segregating them into seven main planes of existence. He then bound those seven planes of existence to his own divinity and became a Demon Emperor.

Some of the Immortals believe that God Aleph might have been very close to becoming a Primordial God and he would have become one eventually if he hadn't fallen back then."

The goddess said in a calm voice. However, Eren could detect a bit of envy laced in that voice even though no prompt appeared on the Spectral screen.
