"Since you have erected an idol for me, then I will hear the suffering of mankind!"

................

"The renewed launch of the special campaign against organized crime signifies my country's further intensification of risk assessment and governance at the grassroots level. Focusing on key areas such as urban-rural fringe areas, villages and towns, and public services, the campaign targets new forms of organized crime, covert gang activities, and grassroots disorder. It adheres to the principles of early intervention and thorough eradication, comprehensively advancing the normalized fight against organized crime, strengthening the foundation of grassroots governance, and safeguarding high-quality social development..."

The female news anchor's voice carried a hint of seriousness as she carefully read the news script in her hand. She then picked up another script:

"A case that has recently attracted public attention has been officially reported..."

Li Xia sat in the chair, a ball of clear light floating in his palm, the purity of which surprised him.

This was the power of the vow that the man unleashed when he returned to the Zhenjun Temple to fulfill his vow after the case unfolded. He wailed and kowtowed desperately, even to the point of tearing his flesh apart, before being helped away by the staff.

However, the power of his will that he condensed was so strong that it directly attracted Li Xia's attention.

During this period, he completed several experiments, including entering and not entering dreams, and doing things at will and at will. Overall, they were pretty much what he had expected.

The most abundant and purest wishes are those fulfilled freely after entering a dream, while the least abundant and most complex wishes are those for wealth.

One man, after Li Xia arranged for him to receive a windfall through Director Zhang, actually believed it was his due...

Forget about fulfilling the vow, the resulting complex and mixed power of the vow was so strong that Li Xia had to directly dispel it.

The wishes for peace and good fortune are the most stable and numerous, while the wishes for love are mixed with pink, which Li Xia finds somewhat distasteful, and this is also the only wish that Li Xia has not touched.

He's not the matchmaker!

In comparison, the purest forms of suffering are injustice and illness.

Aowu and Heitan guessed that when praying for these two things, there are the fewest distracting thoughts and the purest purpose. Basically, they wouldn't pray for their incurable disease to get better while also praying to win ten million and for their idealized partner to fall in love with them.

"Boss, if that's the case... can't we accumulate wish power by fulfilling such wishes?"

Xiao Long also looked at the light in Li Xia's hand. The power of wishes was truly immense. If enough wishes were accumulated and brought back to the hall, that would be a huge profit.

"No!"

Li Xia shook her head:

"I don't need to care about what's going on here, and I don't want to. Let reality take its course. Ordinary people don't need gods. If there really were such a god, it wouldn't be a good thing."

So I've already spoken to Lao Zhang; I'll pass on what I hear to him, but I won't take direct action.

He suddenly laughed:

"Just think of those idols as a transcription machine, responsible only for relaying messages, not for processing them."

And I've also roughly figured out what the power of will is...

Li Xia held the light in his hand and slowly said, "The power of will is like people's expectation to change the world. Whether it is wine, women, wealth, anger, hatred, or love, it is essentially a kind of change."

Changes in circumstances, environment, and lifestyle... When their expectations are strong enough, they generate a will, which should propel them toward the desired direction.

Or to put it more fantastically....

Li Xia's gaze seemed to pierce through the walls and the external obstructions, looking towards the boundless sky:

"This kind of aspiration is the force they convey to the past, which is now, after they have achieved their expectations in the future!"

In other words, only when the future has already been achieved will the power of aspiration arise at this moment; and this power of aspiration is the power to change the world and change destiny!

Aowu and Heitan listened quietly. What Li Xia was saying was extremely abstract, yet it seemed to carry a heavy sense of fate.

"Therefore, I don't really want to get involved with things like willpower. Once you do, it creates a lot of cause and effect. I'll just act as a transcriber and collect some pure willpower."

Li Xia stood up and looked at his fist:

"My path is not in incense offerings, vows, or faith, but solely in cultivating myself and taking myself as the path."

He slowly clenched his fist, and the pure power that had settled between his muscles and bones flowed out.

"The physical body is the foundation, and one's own path is the way forward. Every step is taken by myself."

.......................

Inside the Time Chamber, Li Xia slowly opened his eyes. The shock brought by the acceleration of time and space also subsided. He walked out of the Time Chamber, his body trembled slightly, and his body surface seemed to be shrouded by an invisible force.

The protective aura, which existed only in legends, now protected his entire body.

In reality, it would indeed be very powerful, but...

Li Xia felt the strength of the protective aura and shook his head, but it was as if it had nothing when placed in the fifth rank.

Using force to compress air out through the pores is ultimately too weak, but this is by no means the limit of skill. To be able to create something like this with the skills of an ordinary person is already astonishing enough.

Moreover, having already mastered the protective aura, one can then release the power within their body through this protective aura...

True Qi roared and circulated within his body, and a faint fluorescent glow gradually appeared on his skin, moving and shifting throughout his body.

That's more like it...

Li Xia nodded in satisfaction and walked towards the manor again.

Judging by the time, the portal should be completed soon.

[Return to the palace!]

Your time spent in the real world this time has reached the minimum limit...

Welcome back to... the Hall of Light!

Li Xia glanced at the panel briefly.

Of the guild skills, he likes the fourth, fifth, and sixth the most.

However, levels 4 and 5 are already at the highest level, and when the sixth item is selected to level 3, it prompts that the upper limit has been reached.

You can only continue leveling up after breaking through to the sixth rank.

Does this mean that each rank can only be clicked once?

"Boss, how's it going? Is it finished?"

The three little ones surrounded him, asking impatiently. Little Dragon was especially excited, as this was the guild's headquarters, practically his own home.

It's like buying a new house.

finished.

Li Xia clicked a few times on the application page, and suddenly a huge door appeared on the wall of the hall.

The door also features extremely delicate relief carvings. Upon closer inspection, one can clearly see the imprints of Li Xia, Aowu, Heitan, and Xiaotian, which look lifelike and even their expressions are extremely realistic.

"What does this mean? Why are we carved on the door?"

Awoo curiously moved closer to examine the relief on the door up close.

The relief carvings on the wooden door suddenly seemed to come alive, with layers of faint light rising from them.

Then the wooden door creaked open slowly.

Li Xia and the three little ones stared thoughtfully at the wooden door, which looked like some kind of authentication.

A faint light screen floated inside the door, which was very similar to the teleportation screen that Li Xia saw when he was in the time-space transfer station.

Li Xia pondered for a moment, then took out her communicator and sent a message to Ma Da'ou.

A moment later, a notification from the Hall of Light appeared before his eyes.

[Employee Madaou, ID SKDU221874, has requested access to his personal space]

After Li Xia granted him visitor access, Madao, who looked dazed, walked in through the main door.

Old Ma started with beautiful Chinese:

"****! How come you have so much personal space?"

There is no fairness in the halls of power; it is a place where privilege and one's ecological niche are strongly linked, where there are no human rights, no laws, no morals, and almost no constraints.

The temple's division of apostles was even colder, without a trace of warmth.

The apostle's personal treatment is the best illustration of his status.

A normal fifth-order apostle has at most 500 square meters of personal space, but what did Madaro see?

He saw an entire manor!

In reality, Old Ma would find the manor rather ordinary; a strategic scientist is far more valuable than a manor.

But this is a palace!

"It's alright, it takes several permissions stacked together to get this much."

Li Xia casually brushed aside the topic, saying that the fewer people who knew about reserve substitutes, the better.

Madaro didn't care. It's true that the size of personal space can measure an apostle's niche in the hall, but does Li Xia's niche still need a manor?

The materials he always sent were things that no one could actually obtain.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Li Xia once again appointed Madao as an advisor to the guild—a position that does not enjoy the benefits of the guild, but allows him to travel to the guild headquarters with the permission of the guild leaders.

Passing through the light curtain felt like passing through a water curtain with resistance; after only a few steps forward, the view suddenly opened up.

The sky above was covered with crisscrossing, pitch-black cracks, as if it had been cleaved and torn apart.

Deep within the rift, a hazy void current surged, and occasionally, tiny streaks of light would fall from the crevice, only to vanish silently before reaching the ground.

There was no sun in the sky, only dim and mottled light, and a hazy, thin light spread out, making the whole space seem as if it were in a mist.

And deep within this mist lies the palace that stretches across the ruins.

With the shattered sky as its backdrop and jade as its foundation, the nine-tiered eaves rise like a dragon raising its head, one layer higher than the other, piercing the torn sky.

Even though the entire celestial palace has lost its original divine light, its sheer grandeur is still enough to bring unparalleled awe.

Madaro stood rooted to the spot, mouth agape, completely stunned, staring blankly at the world around him:
