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

The Water God's prophecy, which sounded like a curse, was like a boulder thrown into the deep pool of the Star Alliance, instantly creating violent and far-reaching ripples.

The prophecy's core message points directly to the fall and legacy of the God of War and the God of Water, implying that all of this will ultimately benefit the Red Heart Society, instantly widening the already fragile foundation of trust within the Star Alliance.

Suspicion, doubt, and unease spread like a plague through the mental exchanges among the True Gods of the Rules, filling the air with an almost solidified tension.

However, the panic triggered by this prophecy did not elicit a strong reaction.

After all, the true gods of the Star Alliance learned the full story of what happened shortly afterward through their respective channels.

More importantly, the God of War, a true god renowned for his strategic brilliance, had already foreseen the chaos that the Water God's prophecy might cause in the final moments of his life.

Then, with immense perseverance, through his remaining divine consciousness or some pre-set rule beacon, He clearly and unambiguously explained and clarified to the core members of the Star Alliance the cause and effect of the Water God's sneak attack, His own counterattack, and the final entrustment to Agrelius.

This message from the deceased has temporarily dispelled some of the mystery.

As the leader of the Star Alliance, it's perfectly reasonable for Agrelius to kill the water god.

[The war god, on his deathbed, entrusted all his war wisdom, remaining strength, and unfulfilled ambitions to Agrelius.]

This weighty trust and legacy make Agris's revenge against the God of War seem both logically and emotionally justified and necessary.

However, the water god's prophecy, as venomous as a serpent's whisper, did not completely lose its power despite the war god's dying words and Agrelius's strength.

This prophecy, like an invisible poisonous thorn, is deeply embedded in the hearts of many true gods, causing them a constant, indescribable unease.

This unease stems from an empirical rule, almost an ironclad law, that circulates among the true God.

[The probability of a prophecy or curse uttered by a dying deity coming true is astonishingly high.]

Those cases where the curse failed to come true were often attributed to a vast disparity in power between the curser and the cursed.

The weak cannot shake the rock of fate by cursing the strong.

In popular belief, such prophecies and curses tend to come true.

And indeed, that is the reality before them.

After the fall of the two powerful true gods, the Water God and the War God, their divine essence, insights into the rules, and even the resources they fought over ultimately flowed into the Red Heart Society.

[Indirectly, this strengthened the latent power of the Red Heart Society faction.]

This result perfectly aligns with the prediction made by the water god!

For true gods who have lived for billions of years and witnessed countless conspiracies and intrigues, their judgment of events often skips over complex beginnings and convoluted processes, focusing instead on the final outcome with piercing insight.

Whoever benefits most from the outcome is most likely the mastermind behind everything!

After all, everyone here is a seasoned shrewd strategist. They all have a clear understanding of each other's past actions and methods, though it's unspoken.

After carefully examining the remains left by the God of War and the God of Water, Aglios, the Star Demon God, returned to his seclusion.

[Star Demon God, this is the old schemer who can self-destruct and return again in front of the will of the abyss.]

Even if the military genius had some schemes, they would inevitably be exposed by this cunning old fox's investigation.

He felt that the Star Demon God had no right to help the God of War cover up such a thing.

In the year 1065 of the Extraordinary Era, Agris emerged from his seclusion.

Having undergone this period of seclusion to digest and absorb the wisdom of the God of War and to deeply analyze his own path, His understanding of the rules of combat has reached an unprecedentedly profound level.

[Throughout the universe, He clearly sensed that He had touched the threshold that belonged only to the most supreme beings in the cosmos.]

[The bottleneck for the true gods of the first tier!]

[As long as He can accumulate enough power and complete this crucial advancement, with one step, He will be able to dominate the universe and become invincible!]

[However, the invincibility defined by Agris is not measured by the usual criteria of victory or defeat in battles between equals.]

For him, the kind of combat where players probe each other from a safe distance and compete in divine magical power is meaningless.

What He believed in was that unwavering determination, that resolute courage to face death and emerge victorious.

The core of His calculation lies in this: when both sides face an extreme and desperate situation, He dares to unhesitatingly, thoroughly, and recklessly burn His own essence to fight the opponent.

The other party, however, weighing the pros and cons and fearing destruction or greater loss, dares not or is unwilling to pay the same price.

It was precisely this mad will that transcended life and death that gave Agris his own method of calculation.

[If I can successfully advance to the first tier of True Gods, then I can completely protect the Red Heart Society from disturbance.]

In the vast universe, apart from the three supreme world wills, no other true god can stop His rise and development.

[In the year 1108 of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Red Heart Society of the Star Abyss, after its initial expansion and establishment, inevitably encountered an insurmountable bottleneck.] [The Star Abyss, this chaotic and perilous region composed of turbulent spacetime currents, fragments of shattered rules, and dangerous vortexes of stellar debris, is extremely dangerous.]

The environment itself dictates that conventional cultivation resources available for large-scale collection and utilization are extremely scarce and difficult to obtain reliably.

[For true god-level beings, with their powerful divine shield and control over the rules, they can still painstakingly survey, explore, and even fight and fly within the Star Abyss.]

However, for the vast majority of Red Heart Society members under the True God, the environment of Star Abyss was nothing short of a death zone.

Without comprehensive and continuous protection at the divine level, they wouldn't even be able to meet their basic needs for survival in the harsh environment of the Star Abyss. They could be torn apart at any moment by an inconspicuous current of turbulent rules, or corroded and destroyed by chaotic energy.

The noble ideals upheld and strived for by the Red Heart Society have never been a narrow strategy of relying on a powerful true god to ascend alone or attain enlightenment by one person.

The ultimate goal pursued by the Red Heart Club is a vision as brilliant as the stars: everyone becomes a god!

[May every member of the Red Heart Society embark on their own extraordinary path, ultimately igniting the divine fire and achieving divine status.]

To achieve this ambitious goal, an unimaginable amount of top-tier cultivation resources—enough to form a galaxy in scale—is required.

Perhaps the Red Heart Society can continue its steady development in the Star Abyss Land, as long as it slows down its pace.

But will this work?

Insufficient resources inevitably lead to involution.

[By then, will the Red Heart Society have to change its system from time to time, reducing the basic benefits for its members?]

This won't do!

Agrus stared at the glaringly stagnant data in the branch's development report, his brows, thick with lava, furrowed tightly, and hot lava slowly flowed across his body.

Faced with adversity, His solution was clear and resolute.

[Emulate the true founder of the Red Heart Society, the leader who guided the organization from humble beginnings to glory.]

He decided that the Star Abyss branch would no longer remain confined to this resource-scarce wasteland, but would use Star Abyss as a springboard to expand outwards!

[Let's return to the main universe, which is relatively rich in resources and more suitable for the development of civilization!]

[Time has passed, and the Heavenly Pantheon, once the greatest nemesis, has long since turned to dust.]

[The Red Heart Society, it's time to return to our homeland openly and honestly, and start anew. Is there any problem with that?]

[Didn't the Abyss and Hell not target the Red Heart Society before?]

So, it's definitely worth a try.

In the year 1154 of the Extraordinary Calendar, after long and arduous preparations, the Red Heart Society poured unimaginable manpower, material resources, and financial resources into mobilizing all available forces.

[It's even possible that they used some of the Star Alliance's resources to begin a massive reconstruction project on the former headquarters of the Red Heart World, a void coordinate system completely razed by war and left only with spatial and temporal scars.]

This time, they no longer sought out ready-made worlds, but instead used their supreme power to directly extract and refine the core essence of conquered or abandoned faith worlds as their foundation and catalyst.

[Thus, countless precious resources, complex rule arrays, and the beliefs and power of trillions of members were infused into it.]

Finally, a primordial light illuminated several galaxies.

[The next moment, a brand new world embryo, carrying the glory of the past and the hope for the future, was born in the void!]

A world of pure hearts!

This spiritual totem, symbolizing ideals and struggle, has risen from the ashes of destruction and returned once more!

As the familiar yet new outline of the world finally stabilized in the vast sea of ​​stars, the figures of Agris, Yu Xiao, and the God of Pain—the three elders of the Red Heart Society—suspended above the new world's sky.

Although their divine bodies had long transcended mortal emotions, tears still flowed uncontrollably from their eyes.

【finally!】

They are back!

Beside him, the Star Demon God's figure, constructed from star projections, stood silently, witnessing this scene, a complex mix of emotions welling up within this ancient being.

Perhaps, the seemingly insane plan to preserve the flame of the Red Heart Society's headquarters back then has proven to be the right choice under the cruel test of time.

[It is because of the undying flame of the Star Abyss Branch that everything has been preserved.]

[It is the great ideal of the Red Heart Society—that everyone can become a god and illuminate the universe—that allows it to transcend the darkness of destruction, reignite on its homeland, and continue to be passed down.]

Otherwise, any organization created by others based on the Red Heart's ideals will ultimately be nothing more than a fake. (End of Chapter)
