You want me to take out a loan to practice cultivation? I'll just pay off the debt physically.

Chapter 394 The First Step to Godhood: Heading to the Spirit Realm!
[You don't know what happened in the Endless Abyss during this time, but what you can be sure of is that you, as a variable, influenced the Star Demon God's judgment.]

However, whether the Star Demon God descends or not will have little impact on the Red Heart Society in the short term.

If we extend the timeline, then we'll deal with the future when it comes.

Even if the Star Demon God, through the power of the stars, has discerned something and is unwilling to get involved in the mess of the Crimson Heart Society, the Crimson Heart Society still has ways to lure the Star Demon God over.

[In the previous timeline, the Heart Demon God successfully transformed into a Rule-based Heart God through the help of the Crimson Heart Society.]

During the process of the other party's transformation into a god, Chi Xin secretly kept records of all aspects of the Heart Demon God's activities.

In other words, the Red Heart Society possesses the very experience the Heart Demon God desperately needs for transforming into a god.

Whether it's the Star Demon God or the Heart Demon God, as long as one of them comes and can help the Crimson Heart Society get through the initial stage and give birth to the first True God of Rules within the Crimson Heart Society, then things will be much simpler afterward.

[Of course, according to the Red Heart Society's high command's plan, they would use their authority to sacrifice themselves to create a true god of the rules.]

[Therefore, once a child is born, there can never be only one!]

In April of the 129th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, after completing their preparations, the Red Heart Society, using the pre-known coordinates of the Spirit Realm, selected three hundred members from the future warrior group who met his satisfaction.

Wang Meng, his body as imposing as a mountain, stood at the forefront of the rift, behind him three hundred elite future warriors clad in special camouflage armor, their auras distorted to resemble mercenaries from the spirit realm.

Each of them is a sincere operative who has endured bloodshed and fire, and has undergone deep assimilation into the culture, language, and religion of the spiritual realm. This disguise will not be exposed unless a true god intervenes to investigate.

Aglios's massive, molten gold-like arm slammed heavily onto Wang Meng's shoulder armor, the dull thud resembling the clang of an ancient temple bell.

"Bro! You should tone it down a bit in that awful place."

[You're not a God of War yet, so don't get cocky. Don't think you can wreak havoc on the spirit world just because you could in the previous timeline.]

When you lack the strength, you should act with caution!

Wang Meng grinned, indicating that although he had been a reckless fool before, his mind had been elevated through the baptism of the rules since becoming a god.

Aglios nodded slightly, completely agreeing with Wang Meng's statement.

That's right!

After all, He knew very well that even if Wang Meng's brain was full of shit, it could be transformed into dazzling gold and silver jewels under the baptism of rules.

Wang Meng's lips twitched slightly as he listened to Aglios's praise.

For a moment, he didn't know whether the other person was praising him or mocking him.

However, he took it as a compliment. After all, they were both masters of the rules, and in a sense, they were the same kind of people.

If Agrippa laughs at himself, isn't that also laughing at himself?

In the spirit world, the human race is also a large race.

[However, the human race in the spirit realm is fragmented and divided among various divine churches for rule.]

Therefore, Wang Meng and the others' primary objective in coming here was to raise a large army of the Red Heart Society within the human territory of the Spirit Realm.

[At that time, with the support and cooperation from various parties, the Red Heart Society may be able to reach new heights in its development.]

Thus, the first thing Wang Meng did upon arriving here was to head to the border of the human race's territory, the boundary between order and chaos: the City of Filthy Light.

Wang Meng transforms into a mercenary leader with a face scarred by hardship and eyes as sharp as a vulture's, codenamed Steel Wolf.

He led a similarly disguised elite squad, silently infiltrating this corrupt land, and quietly spreading his doctrine of loyalty amidst the struggles among various religious sects.

[In September of the 130th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, with the help of a demigod of rules as its pinnacle of power, the Red Heart Society of the Spirit Realm flourished.]

In the previous timeline, Wang Meng, as the God of War of Rules, lived in the Spirit Realm for a thousand years.

It can be said that He had a very deep understanding of the spirit world.

Even though Wang Meng descended upon the Spirit Realm as the God of War of Rules several hundred years from now, for the vast Spirit Realm and the immortal Church of Gods, several hundred years is but a fleeting moment.

The dominant races, the Church of God, and various top-tier spiritual organizations have remained virtually unchanged.

Therefore, in the southern district of the City of Defiled Light, Wang Meng directly chose the notorious pushover of the spirit world—the Church of Greed.

This is a human church that worships a god of greed, seeking divine favor by offering everything to their own deity.

Because of this church's bizarre, or even sinister, practices, it appears almost like a heretical church in comparison to other orthodox churches.

Most importantly, Wang Meng knew very well that this so-called God of Greed was not a true god of the spirit world!

The other party's true identity is actually a divine child of the God of Emotions.

All of this is because the other party is using the banner of the God of Emotions, which is why the surrounding churches of gods turn a blind eye.

The God of Emotions, as one of the ancient and powerful deities in the spirit world, is immersed in the power of emotions, which encompasses all kinds of feelings. Therefore, countless divine beings have been born within this power over the centuries.

[One could even say that the god of emotions is more resilient than the god of blood and hell.]

Therefore, greed is merely an insignificant offspring of the other side. Let alone seizing their territory, even killing them wouldn't elicit a significant reaction from the God of Emotions in the short term, provided it's handled properly. And so, the Spirit Realm's Pure Heart Society entered the territory of the Church of Greed and began spreading its Pure Heart ideology.

Compared to the Greedy Church, which readily forces people to sacrifice organs, bones, and blood, and even exploits people's attachment to family to make them sacrifice their loved ones, the Red Heart Society seems much more normal.

【Do not! 】

[Perhaps it should be said that the Red Heart Society was like a ray of sunshine in the area where the Greedy Church was located, attracting those shrouded in darkness.]

[Especially after the Greedy Church came knocking, wanting to expel or even wipe out the Red Heart Society, only to be slapped to death by the Red Heart Society, the Red Heart Society's development instantly reached a new peak.]

Large numbers of humans began joining the Red Heart Society, hoping to gain its protection and return to a normal life.

[That damned, greedy church! If they weren't powerless to resist, they would have overthrown this brain-dead church long ago.]

Initially, these people didn't have high expectations for the Red Heart Society.

After all, in the City of Defiled Light where canon law reigns supreme, all organizations are founded on the principles of the Church. And what good can the Church possibly be?

Perhaps there is a truly good God in the spirit world, and a church that truly saves lives.

But such a church would never live in a city tainted by defilement.

Therefore, these people believe that as long as the Red Heart Society isn't as perverse as the Greedy Church and allows them to live a normal life, they would be willing to work twenty hours a day.

At least I can get four hours of rest, right?

As for the truth, goodness, and beauty promoted by the "True Heart Theory"?

【nonsense! 】

When a church promotes itself to attract more believers, doesn't it use all sorts of tactics?

[Never mind the details, as long as you can fool them, that's what matters!]

However, once they joined the Red Heart Society and became members, they discovered that the society's various policies, systems, and operations were all strictly conducted according to the Red Heart ideology.

[Once you become a member of the Red Heart Society, you can work in various industries within the Red Heart Society in the City of Stained Light, from 10 am to 4 pm, with various allowances and benefits.]

[If overtime is required, the starting salary will be three times the standard rate, calculated based on exceptional resources.]

[Incredible!]

Unbelievable!

[Beyond comprehension!]

[In the City of Defiled Light, where people claim that everyone is born a criminal, needs faith in God to be redeemed, and needs to donate all the fruits of their labor to the church to gain forgiveness, how can an organization like the Red Heart Society even exist?]

[The Red Heart Society will tell everyone that all humans are born noble!]

Everyone is equal!

Most importantly, everyone has the opportunity to become extraordinary.

[If you want to, if you are a member of the Red Heart Society, and if you are willing to dedicate yourself to the Red Heart Society, then you can become an extraordinary being.]

When the news spread throughout the entire City of Filth and Light, everyone was in an uproar.

For these marginalized individuals excluded from the superhuman realm, they don't care about anything else. As long as they can become superhumans and escape their ant-like existence, they'll give anything!

Even if they sacrificed their own lives to give their child a chance to achieve extraordinary things!

The Red Heart Society's disregard for the rules greatly displeased the churches in the City of Defiled Light.

However, when these churches investigated and discovered that the Red Heart Society contained several powerful demigods, their anger instantly dissipated by more than half.

Since the problem cannot be solved by pure violence, then let's negotiate at the negotiating table.

[Didn't everyone come to the City of Defiled Light and establish churches for the power of faith?]

Now that you, Chixin, are doing this, you're ruining everyone's livelihood!

Of course, everyone understands that the Red Heart Society, as an outsider, wanted to gain an foothold in the City of Stained Light, and therefore used the Path of Transcendence as bait to do such a thing.

[Shouldn't the Red Heart Society at least inform everyone?]

Otherwise, wouldn't it be incredibly impolite to have Chixin Hui, an outsider, join them?

[And most importantly, any church that comes here to collect faith power has a background and a history.]

[Your Chixin will inexplicably show up, and no one will say anything.]

But you should at least show everyone your background, right?
