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

[There's no way around it; in the perception of the Will of Hell, the Red Heart Society is simply too sinister!]

On one hand, the other side's history is entangled in the paradoxes of time and space, while their burning passion fuels an almost obsessive flame.

On the other hand, the Red Heart Society's membership is a mixed bag of outcasts from various eras and dimensions, not to mention the time travelers known as future warriors hidden among them.

Anything that seems simple and logical, once it occurs within the unpredictable and treacherous vortex of the Red Heart Society, will inevitably be distorted, becoming unpredictable and fraught with danger!

The declaration of the three gods of Agrippa, on the surface, seems to be an inevitable fall brought about by power, a vulgar drama of selfish desires triumphing over ideals.

But the will of hell, tempered by countless conspiracies and betrayals, is issuing frantic warnings. Beneath this surface, could a scheme by the Red Heart Society's higher-ups be lurking?

Would they really allow the three True Gods of Rules to so easily take the core secrets and resources of the Red Heart Society and leave unscathed to establish that so-called new Red Heart Society?

The three gods of Aglios knew better than anyone the immense power possessed by the enigmatic founder of the Redheart Order.

[Able to traverse the river of time and go back in time to directly intervene!]

Under the shadow of such a terrifying existence, betrayal?

[And such a blatant and high-profile betrayal?]

This is tantamount to placing one's past self under the immense, timeless power of the founder, a power capable of correcting all paradoxes—what is this if not digging one's own grave?

Indeed, Agris, Yu Xiao, and the God of Pain have now ascended to the position of Eternal True Gods, and yearn to gather the unique True God privileges that belong to them.

They were no longer willing to expend their divine power on the Red Heart Society's large and perceived burdensome ordinary members.

But was it necessary to stage this betrayal so dramatically, so ostentatiously, as if afraid the founders wouldn't notice?

The sheer amount of acting itself exudes an aura of conspiracy!

Perhaps, Aglios and his companions weren't betraying each other at all, but rather putting on a spectacular show of loyalty.

[Their purpose was not to break away from the Red Heart Society, but to send a message to the founder who could transcend time and space—a message powerful enough to overturn the current situation.]

This is just like the usual tricks of powerful ministers in mortal dynasties, using grand slogans like "acting in accordance with Heaven's will to quell the rebellion" and "purging the court of corrupt officials."

The slogans they shouted had already revealed the truth.

In short, the founder of the Chixin Society was right!

The fault lies with certain high-ranking members of the Red Heart Society!

[Aglius intended to use this momentous defection, his actions serving as a blood-written testimony, to prove himself to the great founders who might be watching this place.]

The path I have chosen is the true way to reach my sincere ideals!

[The previous Red Heart Society may not have produced any powerful beings at the level of true gods.]

Therefore, the Red Heart Society's understanding of the existence of the true God remains at the level of ordinary members.

This is wrong!

[Now that our combat strength has met the standards, our corresponding compensation and benefits must also keep pace!]

The Red Heart Society can sacrifice others, but how can it sacrifice the true God?

When relevant systems are mismatched with the realities of development, conflicts and contradictions are inevitable.

This rebellion and upheaval may well be an expression of the ideas held by Aglios and others.

They are right!

They are loyal!

Those treacherous officials entrenched in the upper echelons of the Red Heart Society are the real culprits who distort ideals and hinder progress!

Therefore, the ironic oath of loyalty that took place above the headquarters of the Red Heart Society was not a display of hypocrisy at all, but rather a blood oath made by Agris to the Founders, with the entire universe as its stage.

Ordinary observers only see the second layer: the so-called fall and betrayal of the gods.

[And Agris, already positioned on the dazzling fifth level, is orchestrating a grand, far-reaching remonstrance, using himself as a pawn!]

The intricate schemes within the Red Heart Society are like countless tangled threads of cause and effect, so complex that any attempt to unravel them would crumble.

But the Will of Hell, this ruthless strategist forged in the abyss's furnace, possesses a remarkably simple yet deadly method of insight.

He stripped away all the fog of appearances and pierced straight to the core.

After examining each complex operation of the Red Heart Society, has its overall True God-level combat power been damaged or benefited?

The plan to create chaos in the spirit realm that swept across the universe has finally come to an end. On the surface, the Red Heart Society seems to have gained nothing, and even suffered a further blow by losing three crucial True Gods of the Rules—a truly catastrophic loss.

The key point is that these three true gods of rules were originally pawns to be sacrificed in the Red Heart Society's higher-ups' plan! Now, they have cleverly shifted from being sacrificed to defecting.

If this is a fake betrayal, then not only have they escaped the fate of being consumed, but they have also taken away the Red Heart Society's vast resources, establishing a potential branch force outside that obeys the original high command.

From a strategic perspective, where is the loss?

This is clearly a masterful feat of escaping unscathed and breaking down a large operation into smaller parts!

[This is a stroke of genius that transforms internal redundancy into an external strategic foothold!]

[Beneath the surface of the losses lies a covert and efficient expansion and diversion of the Red Heart Society's core strength!]

Having seen through the bloody scheme buried beneath the betrayal, the Will of Hell responded with remarkable composure.

The will of Hell took no direct action, and there was no movement from Hell itself.

Like a master schemer, He meticulously analyzed the truth about the Red Heart Society's betrayal and transmitted it to the Abyss's will through hidden eyes and ears buried deep within the abyss—eyes and ears that even the Abyss's will might not be fully aware of.

The very act of transmitting the message is the first testing stone thrown by the will of hell.

[How will the Will of the Abyss react after receiving this information?]

Is this a thunderous rage, an immediate bloody reprisal against the Red Heart Society?

[Or was the will of the abyss already fully aware of this, and perhaps even pleased to see this peculiar diversion of the Red Heart Society's power?]

[The will of hell is indifferent; He will simply observe and wait.]

If the will of the abyss turns a blind eye and deaf ear to this blatant provocation, it undoubtedly confirms the judgment of the will of hell.

The Abyss's Will may have a deeper scheme against Crimson Heart, perhaps even some kind of tacit understanding.

[At this moment, the Will of Hell must immediately adjust its strategy, closely follow the Will of the Abyss, and spare no effort to gain favor with the Red Heart Society, seizing the initiative in this impending upheaval.]

Conversely, if the will of the abyss is provoked and launches a devastating attack on the Crimson Heart, the will of hell can remain calm and observe from the sidelines.

[When the Crimson Heart Society is on the verge of collapse amidst the abyssal turmoil, the Will of Hell descends from the heavens like a timely gift, offering seemingly crucial assistance.]

This would not only garner immense gratitude and dependence from the Red Heart Society, but also, at minimal cost, firmly bind this uncontrollable and chaotic force to the chariot of hell, transforming it into a sharp spearhead against the abyss.

Regardless of the outcome, the will of hell remains undefeated; the key lies in the reaction of the will of the abyss, which will reveal the future trajectory of the situation.

Most importantly, the core driving force behind the Hellish will's ingenious calculations stems from the cosmic power vacuum created by the complete closure of the spirit realm after its turmoil.

The battleground for the divine resources that will continue to be generated in the vast universe and nourish the growth of gods has inevitably shrunk from the multiverse to the arena of the two giants, the Abyss and Hell.

The isolation of the spirit world is like closing the door to a treasure trove of resources, completely imprisoning the two hungry beasts, hell and the abyss, in the same small cage, where bloody tearing is just around the corner.

Therefore, the core of the will of hell's mind gleams with a cold, calculating light.

Whether it's accumulating advantages for the next timeline or ensuring the survival and growth of the forces in this timeline's hellish realm, the Red Heart Society fighters are a crucial link.

[Bringing the Red Heart Society, a force that operates outside the rules, possesses bizarre spacetime abilities, and seems to be actively diverting influence, into our ranks has become an urgent top strategic objective.]

In today's changing landscape, the Red Heart Society itself is a huge variable.

Its abilities can be a key factor in tipping the scales, especially in the long war against its nemesis, the will of the abyss, where it can play a crucial role.

[In September of the 548th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, the insidious web meticulously woven by the Will of Hell was quietly cast upon the Will of the Abyss, like a venomous snake flicking its tongue.]

But this time, the will of the abyss reacted with unexpected calm.

He displayed an almost indifferent disregard for this top-secret intelligence regarding the truth of the Heart's betrayal, as if it were merely an insignificant speck of dust in the abyss.

This unusual silence itself represents the answer to the abyss.

The abyss remained silent, and the will of hell made no further provocations.

After all, some things only need to be done once.

Overdoing it can easily lead to disaster.

[If the abyss remains still, then He will also remain still for the time being.]

At this critical juncture, where undercurrents surged and the will of hell recalibrated its strategic course due to the silence of the abyss, stood the weathered yet still majestic headquarters of the Red Heart Society.

A pure and brilliant beam of light suddenly tore through the veil of space, and a sacred aura spread out like a tide, yet carried with it a subtle, almost imperceptible, caution.

[The Lord of Radiance, the strongest representative chosen by the remaining gods of faith in the spirit realm.]

[It has arrived at this crucial moment!] (End of Chapter)
