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

In the year 375 of the Extraordinary Era, in the star field on the outer edge of the Spirit Realm, illuminated by countless golden rays of supreme protection, a cosmic spectacle intertwined with tragedy and glory is unfolding.

Amidst the dim, scattered lights that symbolized the fall of countless Red Heart Society demigods who ultimately failed to cross the chasm, a few dazzling beams of light, like stars rising against the current, suddenly erupted with a power capable of tearing through the void.

These most resilient warriors of the Red Heart Society have taken another step forward, relying on their iron will honed to its absolute limit.

[Through their absolute loyalty to their unwavering beliefs and their mastery of profound soul techniques, they endured the excruciating pain of having their authority stripped away and withstood the tearing sensation of the rules being merged.]

In the final moments, as countless companions fell, they broke through the ultimate threshold that separated the mortal from the eternal.

[The divine flame of their own rules, witnessed by the entire universe, was ignited with a resounding roar.]

This newly born divine light not only illuminated the future path of the Red Heart Society, but also, like the sharpest straw, plunged once again deep into the vast ocean of authority and origin in the spirit realm, greedily and efficiently drawing upon the fundamental power belonging to the spirit realm's will!

[Buzz——!!!]

The entire spirit realm seemed to emit a hum of pain and rage.

The Spirit Realm's will, with its boundless perception spanning the universe, clearly saw its precious origin being forcibly extracted once again, like golden blood.

[The loss isn't too great, but it seemed like it was all over, so how did these few thieves manage to succeed?]

【fury!】

[An uncontrollable rage!]

The next moment, a divine punishment of order, imbued with the power to destroy starfields, instantly condensed deep within the origin of the spirit realm. Carrying the ruthless will to annihilate all thieves, it was about to crash down upon the newly formed divine flames of rules.

But at this very moment, a tentacle of abyss, composed of pure chaos and destructive energy, once again lies across the path of divine punishment.

[Boom! B ...

[A divine punishment powerful enough to reduce star systems to elementary particles slammed into the tentacles of the abyss, unleashing a terrifying energy storm that distorted even spacetime.]

The tentacles were charred black and spewed out a viscous liquid that smelled of sulfur, but it stubbornly withstood the fatal blow once again.

[The Spirit Realm!]

【enough! 】

The voice of the Abyss's Will, like the roar of billions of demons, reverberated through the void, carrying a detached and consoling tone.

Calm down!

It's just a slight loss of vital essence, why get so worked up?

Getting angry is bad for your health!

【Oh no, it's the Boundary of Injury!】

On the other side, the roar of the spirit realm's will instantly tore through the void, its rage sweeping out like a supernova explosion.

【calm? 】

【abyss!】

You idiot, your brain is full of chaotic filth!

【you tell me!】

What are you thinking?

Why repeatedly protect these rebellious gods who are not affiliated with any major world and are completely out of control?

They have stolen my authority, sucking the very foundation of the spiritual realm like parasites.

Their very existence is a subversion of the ruling order of our great world!

Such a rebellious individual should be met with united hatred and suppression from all three realms, crushed completely in its infancy.

This is the eternal law of survival!

But what about your abyss?

【what have you done? 】

Instead of joining forces to annihilate you, you've acted like a blind and deaf person, repeatedly obstructing my punishment!

How much hellish filth and pus must have filled your brain to do something so foolish and self-destructive?

Faced with the volcanic eruption of the Spirit Realm's will, the core of the Abyss's will, composed of chaotic vortexes, remained as calm as a stagnant pool.

Not even a ripple appeared.

[His twisted will even mimicked a human-like action, responding in an almost persuasive tone.]

[Loss?] [Is this even considered a loss?]

[Spirit Realm, what is your perspective?]

【Look at me! 】

Just recently, I truly lost a full fifty units of Authority Source.

That is the very essence of my Abyss Core!

Compared to your meager losses, wouldn't I be so angry I'd explode on the spot?

But look at me, I'm still eating and drinking as usual, aren't I?

The Abyss's dismissive statement about the loss of fifty units of origin was like pouring boiling oil, the equivalent of an entire star, onto the raging flames of the Spirit Realm's will!

The form of the spirit realm's will, composed of chains of order, froze instantly, then erupted with a terrifying energy storm powerful enough to throw the nearby galaxies into logical chaos.

【What did you say? 】

The roar of the spirit realm's will transformed into a tangible shockwave of rules, its power almost piercing through the void and striking the invisible face of the abyss's will.

Fifty copies?

You're crazy!

[A complete madman, the biggest idiot of all!]

[The True God of Rules is a rebellious god who can threaten the existence of the will of our Great World; he is the common enemy of the Three Realms.]

Not only did you fail to eliminate them, but you even secretly funded them?

[Fifty portions of the Source of Authority in one fell swoop?]

The water in your brain could probably fill the entire starry sky.

[Abyss, open your eyes, blinded by chaos, and see that you are raising a tiger that will eventually threaten your own future.]

You are personally nurturing a future behemoth capable of swallowing the very will of our great world as a snack!

Aren't you worried at all that when the number of true gods of the rules becomes large enough to cause a qualitative change, they will turn their attention to your Abyss and devour it all, treating it like a juicy cake?

You're practically asking a tiger for its skin; you're courting disaster!

[The Abyss's will remained completely unmoved by the Spirit Realm's roar, which was filled with order and logic; it didn't even bother to change its expression.]

He responded slowly, in a tone that was a mixture of indifference, mockery, and a hint of barely perceptible madness.

[The spirit world can't even handle this?]

[Are you furious?]

The vision is still too narrow.

Let me tell you something even more exciting!

[His will resonated with a sincerity throughout the spiritual realm.]

[The actual losses and fundamental wounds inflicted on me by those true gods who rushed into the heart of my abyss, tearing and plundering my essence like ravenous hyenas, far outweigh the amount you have lost.]

[And those mere fifty portions of the source I gave away are far more serious, far deeper, and far more painful!]

As for the future, we'll have to live to see it.

If I perish, what will the future have to do with me?

[If your spirit world truly desires to annihilate me completely, then I wouldn't mind creating a True God of Rules before my death, one capable of utterly destroying your spirit world!]

[As he spoke, the voice of the Abyss's Will suddenly rose, carrying a defiant, resigned tone.]

Moreover, I'm not afraid to tell you.

Not only did I give it, I also promised those true gods of rules.

[Once this damned war of gods has settled, regardless of the outcome, the Abyss will offer another fifty portions of the Source of Authority.]

This is the promise of my abyss!

At that time, in this vast and boundless universe, the true gods of rules will surely have a place that belongs to them.

No one can stop this!
