Chapter 323 Taking a shortcut to become a rule-based demigod!
When Agrus's divine sense, imbued with endless battle rules, attempted to connect with the Extreme Domain, the Extreme Domain surrounding it trembled slightly.

Even though this true god of rules had already restrained his divine power and suppressed everything around him to a controllable level, like a trickle, the absolute suppression from his godhood still triggered the prelude to the collapse of the domain.

[Buzz——!!!]

The chaotic galaxy at the core of the Ultimate Domain, symbolizing the source of power, suddenly unleashed a destructive storm the instant Agris's divine sense touched it.

[Aglaus's power and life level are too high!]

Even though the Ultimate Domain is based on the world's primordial essence, and was finally formed through the perfection of battle qi, the tempering of rules, and even the fusion of some hellish origins, its essential solidity and capacity far surpass the soul domain of a demigod.

However, your own level of existence is too low; you haven't even crossed the crucial chasm of becoming a demigod.

This is not merely a matter of operation, but a colossal chasm in the very essence of the dimension of life!

At the critical moment when a devastating catastrophe was about to occur, Aglios's divine sense was instantly withdrawn as if electrocuted!

However, after carefully sensing and observing, Aglios felt that while the Extreme Realm couldn't offer any help, he might be able to assist Him himself.

[His divine power, and the constant fluctuations in the rules generated by His own inherent rules, are the most supreme nourishment for demigods!]

[And if one's divine power, and one's understanding and comprehension of the rules, could be added to the Extreme Path Domain, it would undoubtedly bring a tremendous boost to the Red Heart Society's high-end combat power.]

Do you think it's worth giving Agris's suggestion a try?

[With your approval, the Argrius Research Department, comprised of top scientists, rune engineers, combat rules researchers, and elites from the Equipment Department of the Redheart Society, has been established.]

Its core mission is clear and radical: to reverse-engineer the power of the true god of rules and contribute to the renewal and transformation of the Red Heart Society!

With Agris's full cooperation, the divine power was, for the first time, subjected to in-depth analysis using scientific instruments.

[Aglius demonstrated unparalleled cooperation with the research process, even proactively providing divine power samples and opening up a simulator of some core rule structures for the Red Heart Research Institute to scan and analyze.]

Inside the bizarre and fantastical experimental hall of the research department, streams of high-energy particles intertwined and collided with cold, divine tendrils, unleashing an energy surge surpassing even stellar storms.

This is a power that no other world organization possesses. Even an organization founded by a true god himself would absolutely not tolerate its subordinate organizations conducting analysis and research on it.

[During the research process, they even conduct close-up data collection on their own bodies, souls, and divine fire.]

The true God's purpose in establishing an organization must be to serve Himself!

Even the organizations they created carried a strong religious aura, serving merely as tools to gather faith for the true God.

[Tools, and you want to study the gods?]

What kind of audacity would lead someone to think of such a thing?

But what did this matter mean to Agris, a fighter of the Red Heart Society?

[As long as it can lead to the progress of the Chixin Society, as long as it can bring about a complete transformation within the Chixin Society, then let alone merely gathering some information from one's surroundings or providing a small amount of insignificant divine blood.]

Even if it meant lying there, being dissected by the Red Heart Society's research institute, He wouldn't hesitate.

[In short!]

[I'm willing to sacrifice myself for the sake of my sincere heart!]

[And Agris's ideas naturally brought significant research results to the Red Heart Society Research Institute.]

[June, Year 184 of the Extraordinary Calendar, Joint Research Laboratory of the Armor Research Department and the Aglios Research Department.]

A golden energy beam, imbued with a drop of pure battle divine power from Agris, precisely struck the core rune matrix of the one hundred state-of-the-art Abyss-type demigod armors suspended before them!

The anticipated terrifying explosion did not occur; instead, the surface of the hundred suits of armor was instantly coated with a layer of flowing golden flames upon contact!

[Within the extraordinary alloy that constitutes the armor, countless micron-sized rune structures underwent a tremendous transformation under the domineering guidance of divine power.]

[Reorganization!]

[Collapse!]

[In this cycle of life and death, a temporary energy circuit mimicking the imprints of combat rules was born at the energy core of the Silent Abyss-type demigod armor!]

As the pulsating golden divine flames subsided, a hundred suits of armor, gleaming with a new, subdued dark gold hue, floated in mid-air.

The aura they exuded was like that of an ancient god resurrected; their sheer energy intensity and ability to interfere with the laws of nature were enough to crush any ordinary abyss supreme lord!

The success of this undertaking can be considered a huge success.

Although the Aglios Research Department didn't come up with any innovative combat rules, they did make significant changes to the Red Heart Society's demigod armor.

The most important raw material was the divine power provided by Agris.

A single drop of divine power can elevate a hundred demigod armors, unleashing a combat force capable of overwhelming ordinary supreme lords.

Most importantly, the demigod armor, enhanced by the battle god power of Agris, has been lightened to the point that even a ninth-level professional can wear it and use the battle rules to defend against enemies.

[This has one advantage: those ninth-level professionals who have a vague understanding of the power of rules, or who appear to understand them but actually don't, can gain early access to the rules of combat by wielding these demigod armors.]

[Furthermore, after gaining a deeper understanding of the rules of combat, one can advance to become a demigod of rules!] [The normal path to becoming a combat demigod is like learning mathematics: first elementary school, then middle school, then undergraduate, then graduate school, until finally, after many years of study, one begins to study the most cutting-edge mathematical problems in the world.]

However, the latter was possessed by a world-renowned mathematical master, who then helped solve many mathematical problems and retained various problem-solving strategies, insights, and ideas in their mind.

At this point, going back to study middle school math problems becomes incredibly easy!

The results of this technological innovation sparked heated debate among the top management of Chixin Group.

The technical and conservative factions, led by Chixin Wudai, are deeply worried, believing this move allows Nine-Turn Warriors to cheat on the essential path to understanding the rules.

Everything in this world that takes shortcuts will inevitably suffer the consequences in the future.

This might quickly create a group of pseudo-rule demigods with exceptional combat power, but the vast majority of them will never truly understand the core of the rules.

This artificially creates an insurmountable cognitive barrier to its future access to deeper rules, and even its ambition to become a true god.

In other words, the new demigod armor's function might be to trade the warriors' future potential for immediate combat power!

[However, the generals of the Red Heart Society's alliance group gleamed with excitement upon learning of this.]

[Trying to force growth? Hidden dangers?]

【joke!】

Without a foothold in the present, how can one talk of reaching for the heavens in the future?

For the Red Heart Society right now, this armor is like a ladder to heaven!

[First, let the warriors ascend the steps of the demigods of the rules, truly gaining the qualification to look down upon all living beings, before they will have the energy to calmly comprehend how that ladder was constructed!]

If you're afraid to even climb a ladder, why are you worrying below about whether it will affect your rock climbing skills?

That's the view of a fool!

[A person is about to die, yet they're still worried about whether eating will make them gain weight.]

To put it bluntly, isn't that just plain stupid?

Ultimately, the aftermath of this debate reached the table where you were sitting.

Looking at the reports before you, you've already made your decision.

Could I have imagined back then that I would stand this high in the future?

Even the ability to instantly become a demigod is considered a drawback, but this idea also illustrates the power of the Red Heart Society from another perspective.

[Hidden dangers may exist.]

But when the Red Heart Society was first established, all you did was lead everyone to survive in this world, to survive without being bullied!

If even a few brothers in the Red Heart Society could reach the legendary Seventh Rank, that would be a heartfelt, unspoken wish of yours!

Now, the Red Heart Society holds a divine artifact that can empower thousands of warriors to ascend to a level capable of shaking the Supreme Throne!

[It is the foundation upon which the banner of loyalty can unleash a stellar storm on the battlefields of all realms!]

If one day, a warrior truly seizes this opportunity and reaches the true barrier of rules, he will undoubtedly be a powerful individual upheld by countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood, by the collective wisdom of a righteous civilization!

Behind the other side is the driving force of the entire Pure Heart World!

If we truly encounter obstacles then, why not gather all the strength of the Loyal Heart Society and carve out a smooth path to heaven?

Besides, we'll see what happens when that time comes!

Where there's a will, there's a way!

In July of the 186th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Red Heart Society continuously acquired various extraordinary technological information from the outside world, and the number of worlds they explored, as well as the different cultivation systems within them, continued to increase.

Just as the Red Heart Society was fully digesting the combat power innovation brought about by the Divine Radiance Armor and absorbing the rules to accumulate strength, an urgent message came from the intelligence network the Red Heart Society had established in the outside world.

[A secret alliance of three worlds!]

Their goal is to overthrow the Red Heart Society!

[After taking over the Red Heart Society, use their extraordinary technology and all their resources to become even stronger!]

Upon receiving this information, Lin Xue immediately convened a high-level meeting of the Red Heart Society's united leadership.

[As everyone examined the various intelligence reports on the Life Crystal World, the Soren World, and the Celestial World in their hands, a slight twitch appeared at the corner of their mouths.]

The fundamental reason these three worlds united to wage war against the Red Heart Society is that they believe the Red Heart Society lacks top-tier combat power?

They believed that their number of demigod-level experts surpassed that of the Red Heart Society!
