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

[Thus, the vast Abyss Alliance survived the destructive wave of the Spirit Realm's will.]

The wrath of the spirit realm, like a cataclysmic flood, precisely destroyed the Star Society established by Agrelius.

However, through a series of unforeseen events, the Abyss Alliance was able to survive.

Despite its development over the years, the Yuan Alliance has not progressed in the way of its ideal state.

But as long as something has existed, it will leave a memory and a legacy.

Furthermore, how could the Abyss Alliance not have a record of such a miracle that the Crimson Heart Society could produce?

Because of these people, the Red Heart Ideal has indeed been passed down.

A happy life makes people forget the hardships they've endured.

But the more severe the suffering and sense of imbalance, the more the public will yearn for the glorious and beautiful era of the past.

[Thus, the dreams of the Red Heart Society's headquarters days began to be constantly brought up for comparison and reminisced about.]

In the year 4158 of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Star Society was utterly reduced to cosmic dust by the devastating blow of the Spirit Realm's will.

This not only signifies the break in the orthodox lineage of the Red Heart Society, but also directly severs a vital lifeline upon which the Abyss Alliance relies for its operation.

The critical resource supply channels from the Star Society have completely collapsed.

[With the loss of this vital supply line, the already depleted resource reserves of the Yuan Alliance, weakened by internal strife, instantly plunged them into an unprecedented crisis.]

The extreme scarcity of external resources pushed the already acute contradictions within the Abyss Alliance to the brink of explosion.

Amidst this suffocating sense of despair, an undercurrent of reflection began to stir within the Abyss Alliance.

Meanwhile, large numbers of Abyss Alliance members began to flee, hoping to live a better life in other worlds.

Within the Abyss Alliance, they are weak and worthless.

[If it could travel to other worlds, it would be a symbol of power, the greatest being in the world.]

However, how could the Yuan Alliance allow such a large-scale exodus of personnel?

These ordinary people are gone; who will pay for their comfortable lives?

This stark contrast has fueled considerable discontent among the people.

Is there anything wrong with people simply wanting to live a peaceful and prosperous life?

Even more appalling is that, against the backdrop of resource depletion, the Abyss Alliance has developed a terrifying form that transcends the bottom line of bioethics.

[The Yuanmeng's technology development has almost stagnated in the field of divine power and military weaponry, but it has reached its pinnacle in life-extending technology.]

After thousands of years of research, they successfully developed a technique that could completely pulverize and purify the physical body and soul of a ninth-level professional into the purest primordial particles through a forbidden and extremely painful process.

These particles, containing the primal power of life, were then injected, like delicacies, into the bodies of wealthy members of the Abyss Alliance whose bodies and souls had withered due to natural aging or excessive indulgence.

Although the rules of the universe set a lifespan limit for ninth-level professionals, these powerful individuals can forcibly extend their lives by continuously consuming the primordial particles of lower-level life forms.

[Using rare and precious medicinal herbs?]

【No need!】 【That's not only expensive, but it also leads to drug resistance.】

[Primordial particles not only have stable effects and no side effects, but their raw materials are also inexhaustible.]

The Nine-Turn Citizens scattered throughout the Abyss Alliance are an inexhaustible mine of life.

Even more terrifying is that, under the distorted social rules of the Abyss Alliance, a distorted way of survival has spontaneously formed among the lower classes.

[Actively selling parts of their flesh, organs, and even fragments of their soul in exchange for a meager amount of Abyss Coins.]

[Anyway, those who reach the ninth level of cultivation possess a certain degree of regenerative ability; as long as their core essence isn't affected, they can always recover.]

This trade in renewable resources, built upon endless suffering, became the most glaring element in the hellish landscape of the Abyss Alliance.

In the year 5368 of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Abyss Alliance's already cracked and blood-soaked foundation of rule finally erupted in a complete and utter catastrophe.

The root cause of all this lies in the ideology of the Red Heart Society headquarters era.

Resist oppression!

【Pursue equality! 】

Rebuild Justice!

[They combined the current dire situation of the Abyss Alliance with a brilliant and contemporary reinterpretation of the classic work "Loyalty to the Heart."]

They transformed ancient ideals into sharp theoretical weapons, igniting the long-suppressed anger in the hearts of hundreds of millions of people.

The sparks of resistance were initially ignited only in the outer star systems where the Abyss Alliance's rule was weakest and its oppression most profound.

Although the ordinary people of the Abyss Alliance had long harbored deep resentment towards the blood-sucking and parasitic practices of the divine families, wishing they could be completely destroyed.

[In particular, the insane policy of encouraging procreation for thousands of years to provide more raw materials for primordial particles caused the three theocratic families to swell to a suffocating size, like a cancerous tumor.]

The amount of public resources consumed annually by the Yuan Alliance to support these theocratic families is astronomical.

But the fear of reality still exists.

[In its early stages, the resistance lacked high-end combat power and had no True Gods of the Rules overseeing it. In the eyes of the world, if any one of the six True Gods of the Abyss Alliance were to personally intervene, this ragtag resistance force would surely be crushed to dust.]

However, the flames of rebellion proved far more resilient than the rulers had imagined.

[More and more members of the Yuanmeng Alliance are discovering that despite the harsh living conditions, lack of supplies, and frequent threats of encirclement and suppression in the rebel-controlled areas, there are a host of problems.]

However, its interior was permeated with a long-lost aura, one that had long since vanished from the Abyss Alliance.

That is the most basic respect between people, the relative fairness of giving and receiving, and the simple style of leaders sharing weal and woe with ordinary soldiers.

There were no luxurious palaces of theocratic families, no primordial particle extraction factories that instilled despair; only the belief in rebuilding their homes and the warmth of mutual support.

The allure of even the faintest glimmer of human light seen in the depths of despair far surpasses any propaganda or intimidation!

And so, a miracle unique to the resistance, or rather, to their unwavering loyalty, occurred once again. (End of Chapter)
