My profession panel inspires loyalty.

[Achieve the status of a true god of rules!]

Wang Meng said this partly to get the Goddess of Light to cooperate, and partly to see if he could use some means to add another True God of Rules to the Red Heart Society!

[The Star Demon God and the Heart Demon God were able to become true gods by relying on the path of rules during their time in the Red Heart Society in the previous timeline, so there's no reason why the Goddess of Light couldn't!]

In a sense, there is no difference between the three.

They are all the true gods of authority!

[They have all been punished by the will of the Great World!]

Similarly, they are now beyond the attention of the Great World's will and have joined the Red Heart Society.

[Since both the Star Demon God and the Heart Demon God can do this, there's no reason why the Goddess of Light can't.]

[Furthermore, the Red Heart Society currently possesses four True Gods of Rules, and may have more in the future.]

[With the right methods and prior planning, it's not impossible to brainwash the Goddess of Light... and persuade her to become a true god of rules and unwavering faith!]

After all, the other party has no other choice right now.

The value of a true master of rules is quite high.

On the other side, as the Goddess of Light listened to Wang Meng's words, a blazing white spark, piercing through despair, suddenly ignited deep within her eyes, which were as still as a frozen lake.

She knew perfectly well that Wang Meng had no need to fabricate such a promise; with his current terrifying power capable of burning down galaxies, forcibly pinning her into the interlayer of the Heavenly Space was a piece of cake for him.

[A true god, and one that burns everything and is nearing its end—who knows what it might do?]

Even if you really don't want to go in, you still have to go in eventually, right?

[A promise is not a bargaining chip, but rather an extra token of sincerity added to the scales of a transaction.]

This suggestion points to a more terrifying reality.

[The Red Heart Society may truly possess a reincarnation path that allows deities and authorities abandoned by the world's will to be reborn from the ashes!]

This was her only remaining, burning hope for rebirth amidst the ashes of despair; failure meant eternal damnation!

[The throne of the true god of rules!]

This was her only, and last, lifeline!

[The Goddess of Light, in a single breath, had no more hesitation in her heart.]

With astonishing efficiency, she etched the guiding marks and reverse-space beacons left by the Red Heart Society deep within her privacy, their complexity and secrecy even surpassing the highest-level warning runes once set up in the Kingdom of Light.

[If Wang Meng hadn't used his divine power to help her, based on her current abilities alone, she couldn't have done it.]

As the final safety lock was concealed deep within the soul crystal wall, she took a deep breath and resolutely tore open the location in the outer star system of the Heavenly Pantheon, which had been marked as absolutely forbidden.

[The heavenly light, radiating a gentle, purifying glow, descended instantly, like a bridge spanning the boundless sea of ​​stars.]

At the end of the path of light lies the being who, through the power of faith, shared a portion of the divine authority of light with her, and whose relationship with her could be considered that of a friend in Heaven.

[Paradise of Heaven: Lord of Radiance!]

[His immense, incomparable projection, shrouded in pure light, descended personally at the entrance to the sacred outer corridor of Heaven, his gaze calmly fixed on the Goddess of Light, as if welcoming a lost friend returning home.]

Even though the Goddess of Light is no longer a true goddess, their past friendship remains.

After the two sides met, the Lord of Light asked the Goddess of Light how she had been doing lately.

[It's easy to guess what kind of life someone who has fallen from the realm of true gods and been abducted would lead during this time.]

After a brief exchange, the Lord of Glory spoke with a touch of formulaic compassion.

【Chloria Nastine, my sister lost in the darkness, the heavenly light has not forgotten you.】

As He spoke, His will swept over the broken body of the Goddess of Light, fallen to the dust, a cold scrutiny hidden behind pity.

This time, He made no polite remarks.

When facing a true god of equal standing, He needs to use certain expressions and gestures to demonstrate the progress of the friendly relationship between them.

[When facing a demigod, you can speak directly without beating around the bush.]

Because there's no need to waste time on such things.

Even if a true god's lifespan is infinite, they still wouldn't waste it on this.

Reality is cruel.

The next moment, the voice of the Lord of Light resounded around them.

[If you are willing to abandon your old ways, sincerely convert to the true meaning of the Seven Heavens Hymn, and accept the final purification and reshaping of your essence by the Holy Angel's Core Refining Pool.]

I guarantee with the glory of my divine throne that the pantheon of heaven will reserve a safe haven for you!

This seemingly benevolent acceptance is, at its core, as cold as iron chains.

If the Goddess of Light wants to survive in the Heavenly pantheon, she must sacrifice her past divinity and pride, accept assimilation into the Heavenly faith, and be reborn from an authoritative true god into a faith-based Goddess of Light bound by the collective will of believers!

In other words, the path of the authoritative true god has collapsed.

[But the Goddess of Light can still choose to believe in the true God!]

As everyone knows, no one in the universe understands faith better than the pantheon of gods.

Therefore, the only option available to the Goddess of Light is the Heavenly pantheon.

Just as the Lord of Light had made all the plans and felt truly kind and sentimental, the Goddess of Light waved her hand and rejected his suggestion.

Her reason for refusing was simple: who would want to become a god of faith, bound and controlled by believers, when they could be an unfettered god of rules?

[Believing in a true God is not as good as having an authoritative God!]

At the very least, the true god of authority is only responsible for the will of the greater world!

And what about faith in the true God?

Believers are life itself!

[If a large-scale collapse of the faith occurs, the divine authority of the true God will be shaken, and the divine kingdom may even collapse.]

Throughout history, how many true gods have perished due to the collapse of their kingdoms caused by the mass deaths or abandonment of their faith by their followers?

The Goddess of Light's refusal was unexpected by the Lord of Radiance.

The Goddess of Light came here because she had discovered a treasure emanating the aura of light in the Star Abyss, and she wanted to ask the Lord of Radiance for help in finding it.

[With the help of this precious treasure of light, perhaps she can regain her divine status.]

Even if she can't, she can still possess a certain degree of self-protection in this treacherous world, preventing her from becoming a lamb to the slaughter.

After a moment of silence, the Lord of Light asked the other party why they had chosen Him.

The Goddess of Light sighed softly, "Radiance, for you are all I have left."

My old friends and network of relationships are all in the spirit world.

[But you've seen what the gods of the spirit world look like.]

If I go back, it will be like a lamb entering a tiger's den.

The Lord of Light stared at the Goddess of Light for a moment, then slowly nodded.

【it is good! 】

Give me some time to prepare. I will send an avatar with you to the Star Abyss.

In June of the 245th year of the Extraordinary Era, when this journey to the Star Abyss began, the Lord of Radiance was not the only one accompanying the Goddess of Light.

The Lord of Judgment and the Lord of Holy Light each dispatched a powerful avatar to accompany the Goddess of Light.

[The three powerful avatars of the true god, working together, could contend with even a single true god in its physical form for a short period.]

However, when they arrived at the depths of the Star Abyss, they were not greeted by treasures, but by a massive array that sealed off the heavens and earth.

[This God-Locking Array, forged by the Star Demon God in the previous timeline, has reached an unprecedented level of power this time after being used by the three True Gods of Rules.]

Putting everything else aside, sealing off the three avatars is no problem at all.

Who are you?

Why seal off the heavens and earth?

The Lord of Holy Light looked ahead, frowning and rebuking.

Yu Xiao stood there, about to speak, but was stopped by Agluris, who was hiding nearby.

Aglios grinned as he looked at the three avatars trapped there.

There's absolutely no need to be polite with the heavenly pantheon.

Just attack!

【remember!】

The more you talk to these bastards, the more likely you are to get into trouble!

[Strike with a powerful attack from the start, targeting the opponent's vital points, indiscriminately crippling them first!]

[As soon as he finished speaking, Aglios and Wang Meng made their move.]

[The ultimate move has already arrived before the person even gets there.]

[The Lord of Radiance's expression changed after recognizing these three as True Gods of the Crimson Heart Society's Rules.]

Then, he shielded the Goddess of Light behind him with one hand and began to question her.

【The Red Heart Society!】

We believe we have never offended you at any point in time, so why are you ambushing us in this Star Abyss?

Chapter 414 Intercepting the Monarch of Heaven: The Titan Pantheon!

A flicker of understanding of the classic tortoise-shell strategy of the Heavenly Pantheon flashed in Agrus's molten gold eyes. The rulers of the Heavenly Pantheon all believed in the true god!

In matters of attack, faith in the true God is far inferior to that of the authoritative God.

In terms of defense and endurance, as long as the power of faith is sufficient, it is entirely possible to wear down the enemy to the point of ecstasy.

Agris understood this all too well!

The Heavenly Pantheon excels at building an absolute defensive line by relying on its near-infinite reserves of faith, dragging any powerful enemy into a protracted war of attrition, and wearing them down with an endless torrent of faith.

[With this tactic, even if the opponent only has three avatars, it's crucial to prevent them from fully forming, otherwise things will still get very troublesome.]

His will, like a burning steel rod, pierced through the battlefield in an instant, pointing towards Wang Meng's molten lava body, which had consumed its very essence!

[Smash the glorious old tortoise shell!]

Since you've already burned everything, any attack is now imbued with the essence of attack; don't hold back any strength!

No further explanation needed!

Wang Meng had long understood all of this.

Perhaps for other true gods, falling means final death.

But Wang Meng felt no fear of death.

[Because he knew very well that from the moment the great founder of the Red Heart Society displayed his power that transcended time and space, it was destined that the future of the Red Heart Society would be full of glory.]

The Red Heart Society is destined for a bright future!

[Especially someone like him, a high-ranking member of the Red Heart Society, who has sacrificed countless lives for the society, is even less likely to die.]

The death we experience now is not true death; it is merely a temporary sacrifice.

[In the future, in the next timeline, I will still be a brand new hero.]

Most importantly, he knew that his deepest belief and the practice of his most cherished ideals would inevitably be realized in the future!

[Isn't it already starting to happen?]

Therefore, he felt no fear.

[If he hadn't met you, the founder, if he hadn't followed you, and if the Red Heart Society hadn't emerged, he would probably be dead countless times over by now.]

If there is reincarnation, he would probably be dead in his next life.

A world that hasn't been reformed by the Red Heart Society is truly a fucking mess!

So things are fine now!
