My profession panel inspires loyalty.

Let's get started!

Driven by both survival pressures and a strategic opportunistic mentality, the believers in the gods didn't even bother to seek the consent of the Red Heart Society.

[They also knew perfectly well that the Red Heart Society would most likely not agree, and might even demand a higher price.]

Therefore, they directly ordered their angelic legions and instigator armies to urgently produce and raise numerous imitation banners of loyalty before countless shattered fortresses, burning planets, and crumbling walls of their divine kingdom.

That vivid crimson stood out starkly against the backdrop of a war-torn starry sky.

They eagerly anticipated that this tiger skin would act as a magical barrier, causing the surging abyssal army to retreat at the mere sight of the banner, thus buying them a precious respite.

But harsh reality soon delivered a resounding slap in their face.

The Abyss army completely ignored the crimson banners fluttering above the battlegrounds of the gods of faith.

The roaring abyssal behemoths still trample the ruins of the divine realm, and the abyssal lord, wielding a lava blade, still laughs wildly as he slashes at the wings of angels.

Endless, high-ranking demons surged onto the battlefield, tearing apart every visible living thing.

The Abyss faction seemed to have seen through this clumsy trick completely, or rather, they clearly recognized an undeniable fact.

What truly stops the torrent of the abyss is never the flag itself, its fluttering fabric, or its dyed threads.

Rather, it represents the Red Heart Society, forged from an iron will and terrifying power, as symbolized by that flag.

[Regarding the true Red Heart Society, for reasons known only to himself and the Will of Hell, the Abyss chose to take it seriously and even avoid war.]

But what about these imposters who try to pass themselves off as genuine and use someone else's credentials to make a big fuss?

【beat!】

[Beat them to death!]

In July of the 581st year of the Extraordinary Calendar, a catastrophic event plunged the entire pantheon of gods into a bone-chilling cold.

[A noble clan, renowned for its ancient lineage and formidable defenses within a pantheon, is facing a combined attack on its key defensive line by three Abyss Demons empowered by the terrifying will of the abyss.]

In the past, a defense system built upon faith in a true God, relying on His Kingdom and a network of faith, was sufficient to withstand attacks for a long time, even if it was not defeated, while awaiting reinforcements.

However, under the malevolent influence of the Abyss's will, which relentlessly eroded divine power and divinity, each attack from the three demon gods was not merely physical destruction, but also carried a terrifying curse that tore apart souls and corrupted divinity.

Each collision leaves an indelible, festering wound on the body and divine essence of the Xun Clan's true god.

The defenses of a true god shattered like fragile glass before absolute power and insidious erosion.

[Finally, amidst desperate cries, the divine status symbolizing immortality of the Xun Clan's true god was shattered.]

[The last wisp of divine fire, like a candle flickering in the wind, fled in a sorry state to the rear.]

The gods' faction has thus lost a crucial elite fighter.

The confrontation between the two sides instantly slid into a deeper level of despair.

The catastrophic blow of this noble clan's true god's shattered divine status is nothing short of a major earthquake in the faith of all the gods.

This is an unprecedented event!

In their understanding, the defensive barrier built upon faith in the true God and boundless faith should not have collapsed and fallen so completely in just a few years.

[Is the will of the abyss, even without the opposition of the spirit realm's will, truly so terrifying?]

[Even before the Abyss Avatar has launched its attack, the terrifying aggression and irreparable damage inflicted by the empowered demon god alone are enough to terrify the gods of faith.]

In the past, the will of the spirit world could heal their wounds and allow them to recover.

But now, they face only death!

The very foundation upon which they exist—their divine power and divinity—may be utterly vulnerable before the power of the abyss.

At this most turbulent and fearful time for the pantheon of faith, the will of hell, like a shark smelling blood, sent its messengers.

The words of the messenger from hell, coated with tempting sugar, extended an olive branch to the still-shaken believers.

Once you surrender to hell, the great will of hell will become your strong backing, providing you with refuge.

However, these believers, like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow, harbored deep doubts in their hearts.

[Nonsense!]

If one truly intends to abandon their principles and seek asylum, why not simply surrender to the more powerful abyss?

The power of the abyss is more terrifying than hell!

Moreover, they believe in the true God and rely on faith, not authority!

Their divine power, divinity, and even their very existence are firmly tied to the network of faith among their believers that spans all realms.

If they openly align themselves with the chaotic camp, it could trigger a large-scale collapse of faith among their followers.

The days when several monarchs of the former Heavenly pantheon were forced to join the Abyss and Hell under the threat of death are still vivid in our minds.

How many of their followers remain today?

What is the difference between someone who has lost their faith and a demigod?

The gods have seen their fate!

[Perhaps, they're not even as good as demigods of rules or demigods of authority!]

Most importantly, the chain reaction of the collapse of faith will directly drain their source of power, leading to their inevitable downfall.

[A truly powerful god might be able to switch allegiance and pledge allegiance to the abyss or hell by virtue of their control over the origin of the world.]

But how should we rely on these true gods who survive through faith?

Must the Abyss or Hell pay an unimaginable price to help them strip away their foundation of faith and transform into Abyssal Demons or Hell-based True Gods?

But how could the supreme wills of these two great worlds possibly engage in such a losing proposition?

Are these true gods, who are in distress, truly worth such a huge price from the other side?

[Even a fool could see that Hell's current attempts to win them over are nothing more than a ploy to use them as cheap cannon fodder on the front lines against the Abyss, squeezing out their last bit of value in an endless war of attrition!]

If you actually agree, you'll be cutting off your own path to survival and sinking into an abyss of no return!

【so!】

They refused!

Chapter 470 Even the Abyss and Hell oppose it? Then the Red Heart Society will fight!

The messenger of hell remained expressionless in the face of the explicit rejection from the gods.

There was no expected furious threat, nor any persistent, seductive whispers. The messenger of hell reacted with a calm as still as the deep, calm Dead Sea, even carrying a hint of eerie understanding.

Just before he was about to merge into the portal formed by distorted space and shadows, he left behind a final verse, a cryptic statement that sounded like both a prophecy and a curse, delivered in a hoarse, grating voice, devoid of any inflection yet each word carrying the weight of stars.

Dear sages, please reconsider.

The choices we make today will determine our future, and even our eternal destiny!

As soon as the words were spoken, the figure of the messenger of hell, along with the ominous portal, instantly collapsed and vanished.

Only those fatalistic words remained, echoing in the cold air of the sacred hall, like a stone thrown into a deep pool, attempting to create ripples.

But the coercion and enticement from the depths of hell were less effective than a gentle breeze brushing against the robes of those ancient beings who sat atop their radiant thrones in the temple, having endured countless bloody trials in wars of faith.

The gods exchanged knowing glances; they had all experienced this countless times.

This is an old trick often used by the will of hell: using fear as a whip and benefits as bait to coerce and entice.

[For those beings who struggled to rise from the mire of mortal faith and ascended to the pinnacle amidst the intrigues of divine kingdoms, this is already a rotten and outdated tune.]

If their minds could be swayed and tempted by such simple, even somewhat crude, words, they would probably have been torn to pieces by countless covetous individuals long ago on the long road to igniting the divine fire and exalting the divine throne.

How could one sit here so calmly?

[Perhaps compared to those powerful gods who face near-death experiences, the path to godhood through faith in a true god seems to avoid certain extreme risks of physical destruction.]

But this by no means means it's an easy road!

They needed to build a church system from scratch amidst the ignorance and chaos of the mortal world, weaving an intricate network of faith to resist the encroachment of other deities.

[Even amidst countless bloody battles and conspiracies, thrilling dramas unfold of usurpation and replacement.]

The spiritual traps encountered, the crises that shake the foundations of faith, and the deadly assassinations from deities of the same rank—their perilous and unpredictable nature surpasses even the physical destruction faced by a true god of authority.

Therefore, in their eyes, the unchanging tactics of the Will of Hell are less intimidating and alluring than the relentless and merciless scathing attacks from the fanatics of the Red Heart Society.

After all, the insults from the Red Heart Society are often not an emotional outburst, but rather a countdown before the cold, hard war machine is set in motion.

[When the righteous are attacked, it usually means only one thing.]

The Red Heart Society's iron torrent and rules of destruction are not far from crashing into their opponent's face.

In March of the 588th year of the Extraordinary Calendar, a miracle suddenly ignited within the Red Heart Society's research and development core, a hub of cutting-edge wisdom.

With the continuous support of invaluable research materials on the properties of divine power and the structure of the faith network provided by the gods, the Chixin Society's technical team overcame countless setbacks and iterations to successfully complete the project.

The Divine Rune Research Institute announced the successful development of the third-generation Faith Divine Rune.

This is not a simple accumulation of runes, but a miraculous creation born from a deep analysis and reconstruction of the rules governing the power of faith.

The experiment was a great success!

When these intricate and complex three-generation divine runes combine with the ultimate rules within your body, an incredible synergistic effect is produced.

The powerful, almost law-like, purification ability of the ultimate rules was actually able to effectively neutralize the spiritual imprint contained within the power of faith, which was capable of distorting the very essence of the soul.

This means that you can safely manipulate the power of faith gathered from trillions of Red Heart Society members in an extremely short time, transforming it into a devastating attack or an impenetrable defense.

[As long as the timing of the use is precisely controlled within the purification capabilities of the ultimate rules, the changes that the power of faith has caused to the diversity of one's soul will be smoothed out.]

In other words, the emergence of the third-generation Faith Runes truly grants you the combat power of a true god!

[In the future, as the number of rules contained within the Extreme Path Rules increases, the Extreme Path Rules will continue to grow stronger.]

The stronger the ultimate rules become, the greater their purifying abilities will be.

For you, and for the Red Heart Society, this will be a true path to heaven!

[In July of the Extraordinary Calendar 592, the Red Heart Society had already undergone a complete transformation due to the continuous technological explosion.]

[Cutting-edge technologies have made exponential leaps, from energy manipulation to space folding, from bioengineering to soul analysis, all reaching unprecedented heights.]

The techniques and secret arts derived from, improved upon, and even recreated based on these technological breakthroughs far surpass the treasures of the old pantheon in their sophistication and power.

What's even more reassuring is the Red Heart Society's vast and unparalleled resource reserves.

Having integrated countless battlefield spoils, divine legacies, and an efficient production system, its quantity and quality have long surpassed those of established pantheons, reaching a terrifying scale that even the true gods take notice of.

It was on this fertile land, at your direct suggestion and under your impetus as the founder, that a grand blueprint was developed to reshape the foundation of the Red Heart Society's future strength.

[The Extreme Path Project was born out of necessity!]

From this moment forward, within the territory of the Red Heart Society...

All newborns who meet stringent qualification standards in core indicators such as soul strength and physical potential will be incorporated into an unprecedented and systematic training system from the moment they are born.

Every single moment of their early lives will revolve around the same ultimate goal.

[Strive forward so that when you embark on the path of transcendence in the future, you can hone your battle qi or magical power to the theoretically flawless state of ultimate perfection.]

Looking back at the early days of the Red Heart Society, those difficult years of scarce resources and primitive technology meant that perfecting the Golden Battle Qi was a pipe dream!

[That kind of time, often spanning decades, is enough to exhaust all the energy and potential of a peerless genius, causing them to lose their edge long before they can climb to greater heights, ultimately fading into obscurity.]

Back then, the Golden Battle Aura was an unattainable legend.

But times have changed!

[Based on the standardized training program that the Red Heart Society currently possesses, which can only be described as miraculous, and supplemented by a top-tier resource treasury large enough to form mountains and flow into rivers.]

[This is combined with custom-made gene serums and life essences that can guide and strengthen at the cellular and soul levels.]

[Then, with the help of powerful, cutting-edge instruments capable of real-time monitoring, adjustment, and even simulation of extreme training environments.]

[With all objective factors combined, by practicing those cultivation techniques and secret arts that integrate the latest technology with ancient wisdom, achieving a hundredfold increase in efficiency, one can hone their battle qi and magical power at an unprecedented speed.]

The pinnacle of Golden Battle Aura, once the exclusive glory of prodigies, has now become a standard requirement and an inevitable step on the path of growth for every qualified member of the Red Heart Society.

[It's as ordinary as learning to walk and talk.]

Therefore, the Red Heart Society's vision has long since expanded beyond this.

The Red Heart Society must now unite the strength and wisdom of the entire organization to launch an unprecedented, collective assault on the absolute pinnacle of the extraordinary power realm.
