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

However, these matters are not what the Lord of Glory needs to consider at the moment.

His cold, rational mind was perfectly aware of the benefits of cooperating with the Red Heart Society.

However, similarly, He harbors an overwhelming and inescapable hatred within His heart!

But when faced with life-or-death situations, these hatreds can be temporarily suppressed.

[First, survive.]

[The priority is to ensure that the foundation of the Heavenly pantheon's faith is not destroyed in the struggle between the abyss and hell.]

After confirming my thoughts, a new problem arose.

How to build an alliance?

Who will contact the Red Heart Society to establish an alliance?

What are the boundaries and depth of the alliance?

Even if the situation on the Heavenly Pantheon can be temporarily suppressed, can the Crimson Heart Society truly set aside their deep-seated hatred and fight alongside the Heavenly Pantheon, which once sought to completely eradicate them?

This series of problems, each like a noose wrapped with thorns, could easily nip the fragile alliance in the bud, or even drag them into a deeper abyss of destruction.

Not far away, the gazes of the gods, like tangible probes, were fixed on the Radiant Lord, awaiting the decision of this monarch who had once led Heaven.

Of course, everyone has their own thoughts.

If the Lord of Glory's decision conflicts with their own thoughts, they will weigh the pros and cons based on the current situation and make the choice that best serves their own interests.

In November of the 532nd year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the chaotic and destructive torrent that the gods of faith had anticipated did not arrive as expected.

The two colossal entities, the Abyss and Hell, which should have seized the opportunity to launch a purge, were strangely calm at their border, with even the usual primal ripples symbolizing small-scale conflicts almost completely absent.

After all, the will of the abyss and the will of hell had devoured so much of the spirit world's essence; naturally, they needed time to digest it.

This chilling, pre-storm stillness hangs over the world like an invisible curtain.

The more unusually calm the situation, the more alarm bells rang deep within the divine essence of the gods.

The calm before the storm often foreshadows a more terrifying and utter destruction.

The brief lull in the abyss and hell is not an act of mercy, but rather a process of digesting the spoils of war and accumulating the ultimate power to crush all resistance in one fell swoop.

[You, the founder of the Red Heart Society, clearly sensed this extremely oppressive atmosphere throughout the world through various intelligence channels, as if feeling the faint pulse before it stopped.]

However, no matter how turbulent the outside world may be, the core principles of the Red Heart Society have never wavered.

【develop!】

[Development at all costs!]

[Gather strength!]

Driven by your will, the massive machine of civilization, the Red Heart Society, is roaring to life with unprecedented efficiency!

Meanwhile, the ultimate principles deeply rooted in the core of your soul are also quietly transforming through this continuous understanding and refinement.

Over the past few centuries, with the Red Heart Society's full commitment to and development of new rules, three hundred and twenty-five distinct power rules have flowed and intertwined within your will like a dazzling galaxy.

The 325 rules together constitute the vast, profound, and immeasurable Ultimate Rules, giving them an even more magnificent and powerful aura.

Within this galaxy of rules, the primordial essences of those rules that once gave birth to true gods of rules shine with an especially intense and refined light.

The rules of the True God are like the main-sequence stars in a galaxy, radiating a vast power far exceeding that of other rules.

This power continuously nourishes your ultimate rules, making your strength even greater.

Furthermore, the enlightenment boost brought by these 325 rules allows the Red Heart Society to continuously produce rule demigods on their respective paths.

[Due to the emergence of numerous rule-based demigods, the old headmaster also obtained a massive amount of various materials.]

[Whether it's the change in the path to becoming a demigod through rules, the leap and manifestation at the soul level, or the true spirit evolution comprehended by some chosen ones when advancing to the demigod realm.]

Everything, in its purest form, flooded into the old principal's mind.

[And deep within the old principal's divine aura, constructed solely of educational rules, an unprecedented storm of thought was surging.]

[Once, he devoted everything, traversing multiple timelines, to construct a steady ladder for high-level professionals to reach the ninth level.]

With the help of the Soul Spirit Record, the era of the Red Heart Society's full nine-stage advancement has arrived.

Now, he wants to fully utilize his divine wisdom.

[Under these circumstances, his grand blueprint for a rulebook emerged.] [However, the construction of the rules themselves was far more complex than initially conceived.]

Within the current territory of the Crimson Heart Society, countless demigods of rules have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. The sheer variety, intricacy, and diversity of the rules they wield constitute a vast and ever-changing sea of ​​rules.

Every rule is like a living star, containing countless laws of change, conflicting yet intertwined essential characteristics, and endless application problems.

Each and every minute detail of the problem required the old headmaster to expend a tremendous amount of his divine power to analyze and deduce.

Even though he sat high on the throne of enlightenment, using his vast computing power at the true god level and his profound understanding of the soul and the origin of rules to manage this massive project, progress was like trudging through endless quicksand.

This is a feat that could not have been accomplished in a thousand years!

This is essentially a grand project, comparable in scale and difficulty to the creation of gods, aimed at constructing the ultimate temple of universal rules and knowledge, and capable of influencing future generations for billions of years.

[In August of the 535th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, you sat deep within the hall symbolizing the highest will, your golden divine eyes closed, yet your consciousness pierced through the dimensional barriers of the vast universe.]

The ultimate rules deeply rooted in the very essence of your soul are now like the most precise cosmic compass, with the 326 distinct forces of law flowing within them subtly resonating with the fundamental rules of the universe.

[Especially those few fundamental rules that once gave birth to true gods of rules, their resonance was the clearest and most powerful.]

Following this mysterious connection originating from the essence of the rules, your divine sense, like invisible tentacles, quietly probes into the depths of that chaotic and turbulent Star Abyss.

[You have seen the nascent form of the Star Abyss Gathering Ground, jointly constructed by Agrus, Yu Xiao, the God of Pain of Rules, and the seventeen rebellious gods of the spirit world, just like a steel seed stubbornly growing amidst a storm of destruction.]

Even though the true gods who participated in the construction were all wounded in their divine nature and in low spirits, everything constructed from the pure power of the rules still demonstrated the terrifying efficiency of divine creation.

This nascent, chaotic holy land possesses a stable internal spatial structure and a sophisticated environmental regulation, sufficient to accommodate the survival and development of billions of Red Heart Society members.

[The instant your divine sense swept across this steel fortress, deep within the core of the settlement, the three cores of will condensed from the rules of lava, darkness, and pain simultaneously rippled with a barely perceptible intensity.]

[Aglaus's golden divine eyes suddenly opened, Yu Xiao's figure, which had merged into the shadows, froze slightly, and the crimson aura surrounding the God of Pain rippled slightly.]

They sensed it!

[Through their own faith and the connection between them, a cold yet familiar will, traversing endless starry seas and originating from the Red Heart Society, peered in.]

Although you didn't say it explicitly, Aglios understood what you meant.

[In the same month, in the dimensional star field where the Red Heart Society headquarters was located, before the alarm could even be sounded, the anomaly had already pierced the heart like the sharpest dagger.]

The top-secret area, protected by multiple layers of rule barriers, divine military defense arrays, and a mental early warning network jointly set up by the Star Demon God and the Heart Demon God, shattered like fragile glass.

The next moment, a towering figure, wreathed in destructive lava and radiating an aura of overwhelming rebellion, descended with the overwhelming pressure of a war god of rules that made even the stars tremble.

【Aglius!】

[The most heinous traitor in the history of the Red Heart Society!]

[A villain who betrayed the trust of the founders and plunged the Red Heart Society into a strategic disadvantage!]

He was intimately familiar with every energy node in the Red Heart Society's defense system, every weak point in every rule barrier, and even every loophole in every emergency evacuation protocol.

His appearance was completely unexpected, and his breakthrough path was precise and ruthless, directly cutting into the core teleportation matrix of the Fireseed Base.

Even before the Fireseed Base's defense system had been activated and the piercing alarm had even sounded its first note, Agrus's lava fist, carrying a dimensional-tearing, ferocious power, slammed into the base's core protective shield.

【boom--! ! ! 】

The composite shield, capable of withstanding attacks from true gods, vanished instantly like a soap bubble in the sunlight.

[The three massive Spark Bases, along with all the embryo repositories, civilization database cores, and key personnel maintaining their operation, which were all under emergency freeze, instantly came to a standstill.]

Under the invisible giant hand of Agrus, formed from the rules of battle, the three Fireseed bases were uprooted and transformed into three streams of light that disappeared into the spatial rift he had torn open.

[The Rebel God Agrelius!]

【How dare you—! !!!】

Five roars, each carrying boundless rage and the power of destruction, exploded almost simultaneously like world-destroying thunder.

This time, the Red Heart Society reacted with extreme speed.

[Lin Xue, the Rule Spirit God, transformed her divine sense into countless invisible chains of soul energy, instantly sealing off all dimensional exits in the surrounding area.]

[Zhou Mo, the Star God of Rules, drew upon the power of the vast galaxy, unleashing countless beams of destructive energy condensed from pure stellar rules, which rained down upon the closing spatial rift in Agris.]

The old headmaster's divine domain unfolded ruthlessly, and the holy light of enlightenment transformed into tangible rules and shackles, attempting to imprison any act of rebellion against the god.

[The three True Gods of the Rules acted immediately, solely to capture Agris completely under the watchful eyes of everyone!] (End of Chapter)
