A different world game? A different world game!

The God King's palace was solemn and dignified.

Aside from Kana and the god-king who sat high on his throne, the audience seemed to consist only of Cronus, Talia, and Luminar.

They listened quietly, even though Kana had given them a general overview earlier.

But they didn't delve into the deeper, more hidden things, and Kana clearly wouldn't speak of them rashly.

This time, Kana is prepared to share much more information, and in much more detail.

He took a deep breath, adjusted his posture, and looked firmly at the God King.

In addition, another deity sits in the shadows to the side of the throne of the god-king.

However, the other party's presence seemed to have been deliberately concealed, as if it had blended into the light and shadow of the temple itself, so much so that Kana and the others had slightly overlooked it before.

They seemed never to have noticed that there was a god there.

But He has always existed.

Only now, as Kana and the others bowed to the God-King and prepared to give their report, did the deity seem to release a slight trace of his own aura.

Cana, Kronos, Talia, and Luminar noticed His presence almost simultaneously, and their gazes involuntarily turned in that direction.

Fortunately, none of them showed any surprise.

The moment they saw Him, a gentle flow of information followed, making them understand that this was a signal of goodwill from Him, indicating that He had no ill intentions and was simply habitually in the position of an observer.

That was a female deity.

He sat regally on a secondary seat carved from pure moonstone, his posture elegant and serene.

What is most striking is His face.

Where the eyes should be, there is only one deep, vertical pupil, seemingly containing an endless starry sky, located in the center of the forehead, gleaming with the light of wisdom and insight.

This single eye did not detract from His appearance; on the contrary, it added an exotic and sacred charm.

Aside from these unique features, His facial features were perfect, with a high nose bridge, soft lips, and skin that radiated a warm luster like the finest mother-of-pearl. Among the Titans, this was absolutely unparalleled beauty.

Of course, apart from the eyes not conforming to human aesthetics, everything else conforms to human aesthetics perfectly.

But precisely because of the eyes, it doesn't inherently conform to human aesthetics, yet you can still perceive the other person's beauty.

This is at the level of rules; these are rules that inherently exist within the position of the Goddess.

He wore a robe woven from flowing nebulae and moonlight, the style of which was ancient and simple, and the surface was covered with a faint white halo, like the morning mist.

The hazy halo made His figure appear somewhat indistinct, as if He might disappear into the temple's light at any moment, or as if He were blending into the entire space.

His existence itself carries a sense of detachment and alienation.

This must be one of the legendary Triune Goddesses.

Kana understood.

I just don't know which of the goddesses this person in front of me is.

There is indeed very little specific information about the Queen of the Gods; even Cronus and the others had not shared many details before.

At this moment, a gentle yet clear fluctuation of divine power emanated from the one-eyed goddess once again, like a silent whisper.

This time the information is much clearer.

His authority seems to be associated with [secrecy], [insight], and [existence].

Kana and the other gods immediately understood this goodwill.

He is showing that He did not intentionally hide there to spy; it was simply a natural manifestation of His way of being, and that His appearance at this moment was to show respect and honesty.

Of course, this is mainly to let the two unfamiliar new gods get to know each other.

The God-King's gaze swept over the God-Queen, and he nodded slightly, seemingly tacitly approving her appearance.

Then, He turned His gaze back to Kana, a gaze that was deep and powerful, as if it could see through all appearances.

"Begin, guardian from the Holy Stone Plane, Kana."

Kana composed himself and began to speak.

He spoke earnestly and clearly, revealing the desperate situation facing the Holy Stone Plane, the "datafication" rules he created, his plan to gain energy through the Abyss Blood War, and ultimately to protect the entire world to the greatest extent possible during the Void invasion.

The God-King and the One-Eyed Queen listened quietly, their faces showing no change in expression, only profound calm.

Kronos and the others listened intently. Although Cana had given them a general overview before, this information was undoubtedly more detailed.

In particular, regarding the core operational logic and potential assessment of the "data-driven" rules.

When Kana finished his long speech, the entire hall fell into a brief silence.

After listening, Kronos, Talia, and Luminar quickly analyzed the vast amount of information contained in Kana's words.

Their faces couldn't help but show varying degrees of surprise, and Kronos even subconsciously rubbed the hard keratin layer on his chin.

In particular, Cronus and Luminar, who possessed intermediate divine power, had a deeper understanding of the underlying rules governing the world, unlike Talia, who had weaker divine power.

She was wide-eyed, trying to process the information that was far beyond her current understanding, and she was completely bewildered.

They astutely gleaned a key point from Cana's narrative.

A brand new, emerging and evolving core rule system – datafication.

It sounds like this new rule is an unprecedented and potentially powerful force of rules, born from Kana's unique ideas and actions, which innovatively blend and reconstruct some existing rules.

That is, what he described as "datafication".

The problem is how to use it.

It doesn't create a new race, but rather allows all races, all living beings, and things that are not necessarily alive to utilize nesting.

The prospects for its application are so broad, and the growth following these rules is so firm and clear.

What is a broad and wide road? It is a broad and wide road that can be seen at a glance and walked on.

Envy.

“The new rules… Is this the unusual brilliance I’ve been seeing in you? I see.”

The God-King's deep voice broke the silence, his murmurs resounding clearly in everyone's hearts like a booming bell, carrying a hint of sudden realization and profound insight.

With the God-King's discerning eye, he naturally sensed the vibrant, new life force emanating from Kana the moment he stepped into the temple, a force unlike that of ordinary gods.

But what exactly this aura represents is something that even he cannot directly discern under the protection of the supreme rules of the astral plane.

Although his keen eyesight had already guessed that it was a new rule.

"But the new rules... and you are the only one who holds them."

The God-King's gaze seemed to pierce through Kana's divine essence, looking directly into its core.

The problem arises here.

Throughout the entire astral plane, the birth of new rules is absolutely protected. New rules can be established regardless of how powerful the gods they face.

Even the greatest divine power cannot be forcibly explored to uncover its core secrets.

This is one of the most fundamental manifestations of the will of the stars, a supreme protection for new life and new possibilities.

This is also an unshakeable form of protection.

Because the birth of each new rule means that a god can ascend freely without hindrance by relying on this exclusive rule path.

This indicates that this deity possesses immeasurable potential.

However, other gods coveted such rules, and who wouldn't want to claim such a broad road full of unknowns and power for themselves?

This means that as the rules spread, are understood and used by all beings, the creators of the rules will naturally rise in rank as the rules themselves grow stronger.

The higher the potential ceiling of this rule, the higher the limit of this god's growth.

There are also distinctions in the hierarchy and strength of rules.

However, for most of the new rules, if the creator can fully grasp them and develop them to their fullest potential, a rank of intermediate divine power is a certainty.

The vast number of weak and minor divine powers in the astral plane are not fundamentally due to the scarcity of rules.

In reality, the number of rules contained in the astral planes or various worlds far exceeds the number of existing gods.

Rather, they failed to fully grasp a core rule sufficient to support their promotion.

Simply put, it's not that there aren't enough places, but rather that the vast majority of gods lack the ability to occupy those positions.

They lack the ability to fully understand and control a complete set of rules.

For deities, mastering some minor details of the rules, or comprehending a part of a rule, is already commonplace.

This is precisely why the vast majority of gods in this world remain at the stage of weak or negligible divine power.

Gods at this stage often spend their lives trying to comprehend various fragments of rules, attempting to find the one that resonates with them and that they can hope to fully control.

Because suitable rules may not exist, or may not have been discovered.

However, existing rules that are less suitable for certain situations may be much easier to master, and could be a viable path to advancing to intermediate divine power.

This is the helplessness and struggle of the vast majority of gods.

However, this is merely a problem for the gods.

For Canna, the situation is quite different.

Therefore, if a mortal or other being can ascend to godhood along with the birth of a completely new rule, that is, the rule is born because of him.

Therefore, it means that this deity naturally and inevitably possesses a smooth path to ascending to intermediate divine power.

This is a temptation that would drive the countless gods struggling with fragments of rules in the astral plane mad with desire.

And if the potential of this new rule is large enough...

Therefore, a powerful god, or even a being of the level of a great god, would become possible.

A powerful divine force is a force that cannot be ignored, even for a great being like the God-King.

The Titan pantheon, as one of the most prestigious and renowned pantheons in the astral plane, has only produced six powerful deities throughout its long history.

Moreover, these six powerful deities are all veterans who rose to prominence during the glorious period after the Titan world was reborn from the void in the ancient "Golden Age" and followed the God-King.

Since then, many years have passed, and no new powerful gods have emerged in the Titan pantheon.

It can be said that these six powerful deities are one of the most generous gifts bestowed upon the astral plane after the Titan world broke through the void and experienced the Golden Age.

The addition of a powerful deity can give a pantheon unprecedented momentum for vigorous development.

Many powerful pantheons are supported at their core by only one powerful god.

After all, the number of great divine powers can be counted on one hand, and not every great divine power has created a pantheon.

For the God-King, with his great divine power, he could not directly comprehend the specific mysteries of this new rule of Kana.

But his vast and boundless divine sense could clearly perceive the vibrant life force and immeasurable future contained within this rule.

He already had a vague certainty in his heart.

This is a being that guarantees the attainment of immense divine power!
From both a moral and logical standpoint, regardless of the reasons, he had to provide investment for Kana; it was a deal that would absolutely not lose money, without a doubt.

Such a being actually came knocking on our door. Even the God-King had to slap his forehead and wonder if he'd been having a particularly lucky streak lately.

Was fate on his side?

It seems he's been favored by fate lately.

He was loved by his wife.

"The Stone of Creation..."

The God-King's gaze shifted from Kana, seemingly piercing through the temple's dome and looking into the depths of the astral plane.

He suddenly raised his right arm, which was as steady as a mountain, and extended his index finger and thumb, making a very natural and gentle pinch in the seemingly empty air in front of him.

The space seemed to ripple like water, and then, a complete creation stone, radiating a gentle silver glow and seemingly containing a miniature universe within, appeared out of thin air between his enormous fingers.

Kana's pupils contracted slightly as he stared blankly at this unbelievable scene.

The aura emanating from that Creation Stone was pure and complete, sharing the same origin as the core aura of the Sacred Stone Plane it guarded, yet being entirely different.

It carries a sense of "new life".

Is this the power of a great god?
Kana was deeply shocked.

Even without the existence of the Creation Stone, the other party can conjure up the core manifestation of the rules out of thin air based on their profound understanding of the fundamental rules of the world.

Because Kana could be 100% certain that this creation stone, which the God-King created casually, was not a core product of his world.

The vast knowledge of the astral planes he had learned from Star Ring City and Kronos had long made him understand that the so-called Creation Stone was the unique core of his "Holy Stone Plane," a crystallization of the world's will and rules.

Worlds possessing such a unique core are indeed rare on a scale across the entire astral plane.

However, this "few" absolute numbers are not extremely rare.

Kronos had previously mentioned that the Titans had clearly identified and documented over a hundred worlds with similar unique cores.

Of course, this number is extremely small compared to the almost infinite total number of worlds in the astral plane.

"This is a manifestation of the birth and creation of the world, a crystallization of the core rules that have been formed in the process of the world's growth and creation. It can be described as special and unique."

The God-King's voice carried an all-knowing calm as he toyed with the newly formed Creation Stone between his fingertips.

"But it is by no means the main reason for the emergence of a completely new rule."

As he spoke, the God-King's gaze returned to Kana, filled with an unprecedented solemnity. (End of Chapter)
