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

[And so, the will of the abyss was enraged.]

This rage surpassed the fury of the Heart Demon God's escape, and even the frenzy of the Star Demon God's sacrifice; He entered into an unprecedented state of absolute rage.

This rage was no longer directed at a specific traitor, but spread throughout the entire hierarchy of true gods.

[Or rather, it's directed at all powerful individuals nurtured by the greater world, yet ultimately potentially turning against themselves.]

Under such extreme emotions, a cold and genocidal thought emerged from the deepest recesses of the abyss's will.

[True gods are all cancerous growths!]

From His current biased perspective, cultivating true gods, especially top-tier true gods, is a completely unprofitable endeavor.

[The Great World cultivates true gods, investing massive resources and rules of authority, sending them out to conquer and subjugate, seemingly gaining territory and faith.]

However, they will ultimately face the enormous risk of a true god reaching their peak and seeking independence, or even plundering the origin of the world.

The disadvantages outweigh the advantages!

Since true gods, especially top-tier true gods, have become destabilizing factors and potential thieves, the most effective and permanent solution is to eliminate them.

Therefore, He should annihilate all the Abyss Demons; only in this way can He preserve His precious Abyss Authority and prevent any future troubles!

This idea is filled with abyssal extremism and madness, but it also reflects its deepest fear and powerlessness.

The moment the Abyss Will conceived this destructive idea, its undisguised, chilling killing intent, like the most biting wind, instantly pierced through layers of demonic realms, and was sensed by all the Abyss Demon Gods in the darkness.

[It was a terrifying force originating from the very source of existence, a terror about to be devoured and erased by the Mother Body!]

[Under such a crisis, the Abyss Demon Realm was plunged into unprecedented panic and a frenzy for survival.]

Aside from the three top-tier demon gods—Source, Meteor, and Slaughter—who are currently advancing in rank, all the remaining demon gods from the first to the third tier have begun to make changes.

No matter how unruly, cruel, or tyrannical they may be on ordinary days, at this moment they are all expressing their loyalty to the will of the abyss in the most humble, earnest, and unreserved manner.

They opened their divine kingdom, offered their most precious tributes, uttered their most fervent prayers, and swore eternal loyalty.

[Especially those demons in the third and second tiers who are relatively weaker and think they are more likely to be targeted for elimination, they directly upload all their thought processes, memory fragments, and even soul fluctuations.]

They allowed themselves to be examined by the will of the abyss to prove that they had no ulterior motives, had never been involved in the practice of sacrifice, and were absolutely satisfied with the existing system.

They are expressing one thing!

Despite their past misdeeds, extreme chaos, and countless atrocities, including burning, killing, and looting.

But all of that is within the framework permitted, and even encouraged, by the rules of the Abyss.

These sins are utterly insignificant in the value system of the abyss!

[It even proves its pure abyssal bloodline and outstanding survivability!]

All their evil deeds stem from their adherence to and promotion of the rules established by the will of the abyss; they are a manifestation of the abyss's power and majesty, and are fundamentally different from betrayal and independence.

They attempted to use this logic to prove that they were fundamentally different from the likes of the Heart Demon God and the Star Demon God, and that they were loyal hyenas of the Abyss rather than ungrateful wolves.

[After receiving the messages from these countless true gods, the Abyss's will, despite its boiling killing intent and destructive impulses, was forced to suppress its inner rage in the face of the massive flow of information and the cruel reality that severing its own limbs would lead to a complete vacuum in the Abyss's combat power.]

The price of purifying all demons is too high, too high even for the raging abyss. But this does not mean forgiveness or trust.

[However, relatively speaking, His supervision of those strongest and most likely to be restless top-tier demon gods became even stricter, to a suffocating degree.]

Or rather, it became extremely brutal.

[Constant will scans, near-imprisonment-like activity range, every minute study of the rules is recorded and analyzed, and the slightest abnormality will result in direct will-based oppression and punishment.]

The top demon gods, once powerful rulers, have instantly become high-risk prisoners under close surveillance.

This unexpected turn of events, this murderous intent and brutal control emanating from the Mother, is precisely the reason why the three top demon gods ultimately made their decision to sacrifice themselves for advancement at this moment.

They knew better than anyone that when the will of the Great World developed systematic doubt and murderous intent towards the top true gods, only two fates awaited them.

[It will either slowly decay amidst endless surveillance and suspicion, and eventually be eliminated under some pretext.]

[Either seize this precious opportunity presented by the temporary chaos and distraction in the regulatory network caused by the Lord of Power incident, and fight to the death, embarking on that dangerous but potentially liberating path of sacrifice.]

If you miss this opportunity, you'll have no future!

Not getting promoted is like a slow death, or even a sudden death at any moment.

Promotion, though fraught with great risk, at least offers a glimmer of hope and a chance for transcendence.

Driven by despair, they chose the most insane, and perhaps only, option.

In July of the 562nd year of the Extraordinary Calendar, after witnessing the betrayal of the Lord of Power of the Spirit Realm and the simultaneous sacrifice of three demon gods from the Abyss, the Will of Hell began its own machinations.

[Although this time the true god of hell behaved unusually well after the incident with the Lustful Lord, showing Him face in various ways.]

However, the vigilance of the Will of Hell did not decrease; on the contrary, it increased to the highest level.

He cannot let his guard down!

He knew that temporary compliance might just be the calm before the storm, a sign of more careful concealment and waiting for the right opportunity.

[Faced with the ideological plague of sacrificial practices, which can shake the very foundations of rule, any slackening of vigilance is fatal.]

We still need to strictly regulate, otherwise we'll be the ones betrayed next time.

The Will of Hell has further intensified its surveillance of its top rulers, employing methods so harsh and frequent that they are beginning to rival those of the Abyss.

He would never allow such tearing wounds to appear on his own body.

The three worlds, without prior agreement, have entered a period of terrifying rule characterized by unprecedentedly high pressure on their top experts.

The chaos in the three great worlds led them to focus most of their attention on self-eradication.

[Thus, a natural protective shield appeared on the Crimson Heart Society, located between the ordinary world and the Star Abyss Land.]

No major world order would believe that this terrifying calamity shaking the universe was launched by an ordinary organization that was quietly developing in the ordinary world.

This is simply unrealistic! (End of Chapter)
