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

In June of the Extraordinary Calendar 1387, a purge within the Red Heart Society, driven by the will of Shadow Guard Commander Agris, swept across the entire Star Abyss Territory.

This veteran warrior, whose soul has been forged into one with his unwavering ideals through countless lifetimes, has placed his Shadow Guard Legion, composed of the most elite Rule Gods and extraordinary warriors, into the highest level of combat readiness.

[Aglius's command was concise: anyone who violated the Red Heart Law, regardless of rank, origin, or past achievements, would be punished.]

[Arrest them all!]

Whether you are a god who rules the stars, a general who commands an army, or a lurking rat in the shadows!

Before the law, all beings are equal!

This command, like a final judgment, instantly shattered the facade of calm maintained by the Red Heart Society.

[This was immediately followed by the most iron-fisted execution.]

[After the arrest, there was no appeasement or compromise, but rather the most severe sentence was handed down according to the "Red Heart Law," forged by the Red Heart Society over millions of years of iron and blood.]

[Exiled to the Star Abyss!]

[Strip him of his divine status and power!]

[Even their very soul and form will be annihilated!]

The cold, hard lines of law stand awaiting the fall of the gavel.

What's most shocking about this storm is that even the supreme ruler of the rules is prominently listed at the top of the wanted list.

No one was spared!

This purge targeting the true gods of rules is precisely aimed at those outsiders who have reincarnated from the abyss and the spirit realm.

After all, the true gods of rules born from the Red Heart Society have absolute respect for the law.

[These transformed True Gods maintained their stability under the repeated strict orders of the two transcendent leaders, the Source Demon God and the Lord of Power.]

These two also stated that they came here to seek the Great Dao of Transcendence, not to indulge in selfish desires or repeat past mistakes!

These words caused these cultivators to outwardly restrain themselves, but the arrogance stemming from chaos and power never truly dissipated.

Especially after the five Transcendent members of the Red Heart Society left the Star Abyss base camp to venture into dangerous territory and hunt down the incarnations of the Abyss's will, these cultivators who had transformed into True Gods acted like ferocious beasts breaking free of their final shackles, becoming increasingly unrestrained.

They regard the true god of the Red Heart Society, born in their homeland, as worthless chickens and dogs, a mere third echelon, worthy of governing us?

Their hearts were filled with disdain and contempt. Which of those who had endured hardship, broken free from the shackles of the greater world, and successfully transferred to this realm hadn't advanced to the second tier?

[To put it bluntly, there are even a number of top-tier individuals in the very first tier.]

[The Red Heart Society's proudest divine military weaponry?]

【Ah! 】

Without a powerful figure of equal rank to suppress them, those heavy lumps of iron would be nothing more than a pile of scrap metal to be dismantled before the mighty power of our true gods.

This absolute sense of superiority stemming from their power level has led them to disregard the fundamental laws, and their private acts of violating rules, trampling on order, and satisfying their selfish desires have long been deeply entrenched and irreversible.

In March of the year 1400 of the Extraordinary Era, the Shadow Guard Commander, Aglios, personally intervened with overwhelming force.

Within a single day, four former unruly individuals who had disregarded the law and turned to cultivation as true gods were arrested and imprisoned.

[Among them, the one from the spirit realm, a top-tier true god of immense power whose name once resounded throughout the universe, became the perfect target for Agrus to establish his authority.]

[Faced with the Shadow Guard's arrest warrant, this top-tier True God was enraged and laughed, regarding it as a humiliating disgrace. His violent divine power instantly tore apart the imprisonment space.]

A terrifying divine war, powerful enough to shake the very core of the Star Abyss, erupted!

This rebellious god of the spirit realm revealed his terrifying foundation as a first-tier being, transforming the power of rules into a destructive tide, intending to crush Agrelius along with the Shadow Guard legion.

[But He underestimated Aglios, a direct descendant of the Red Heart Society, whose rise to the first tier was no fluke.] [He further underestimated the terrifying war power unleashed by the Red Heart Society's millennia of accumulated strength across multiple timelines.]

[Agrius took the lead, using his powerful, rule-bound body to directly confront the opponent's sharp edge; his fighting will was as unwavering as an ancient star core.]

Meanwhile, the Shadow Guard Legion, which had already laid a trap, launched its highest-level Godfall Plan.

[The hundreds of divine cannon arrays surrounding the battlefield instantly charged to their maximum power, their muzzles radiating a destructive glow capable of evaporating stars.]

[Under the cover of spatial folding technology, countless Ripper assault teams appeared like ghosts at every critical point on the battlefield, precisely severing the defensive network of the rebellious god's rules.]

Furthermore, a massive Divine Realm Silent Interference Matrix was operating at full capacity, forcibly suppressing and distorting the rebellious god's perfect control over the power of the rules.

[Agorius's art of combat, combined with the Red Heart Society's unparalleled technology and their divinely powerful military might, created a perfect symphony of war at this moment.]

No matter how much the rebellious god of the spirit realm roared and struggled, its domain of rules was torn apart layer by layer, and its divine body suffered continuous and accumulating wounds.

In the end, Agrelius seized that fleeting opportunity, unleashing a final strike that combined all his power with the combined firepower of the entire battlefield, a strike as powerful as the light of cosmic judgment, piercing the core of the rebellious god.

With a piercing howl that echoed through the soul dimension, the once invincible top true god of the spirit realm shattered, his divine body turning into cosmic dust.

[Agrius stood in the void, sword in hand, coldly proclaiming his final crime.]

[Resist the Law of the Heart!]

[Unforgivable!]

【He should be executed! 】

This scene was deeply imprinted on the core of the divine essence of all the Transcendent Gods who sensed this battle.

This brutal and bloody battle had a far greater deterrent effect than any appeasement policy or empty warnings.

[While the aftershocks of the fall of that supreme True God of the Spirit Realm still echoed in the Star Abyss, the calm and authoritative voice of Lin Xue, the Chief Administrator of the Red Heart Society, resounded throughout the entire region.]

She proclaimed to the gods and issued a "Special Provision Regarding Lenient Punishment for Those Who Voluntarily Confess to Offenses Against the Law."

This command was like gently plucking a string stretched to its limit, instantly triggering a chain reaction.

The mental defenses of those who had previously harbored illusions, hesitated, or even secretly conspired against the trend collapsed under the iron-fisted tactics displayed by Agris and the terrifying war machine of the Red Heart Society.

Before the Temple of Surrender established at the Shadow Guard headquarters, one after another, true gods of the rules appeared.

[A large number of formerly unruly cultivators, now looking terrified, rushed forward to confess their past transgressions against the Red Heart Law.]

[I only hope to secure a relatively lenient sentence before that wicked Agrus comes knocking.]

This scare tactic, orchestrated by Agrus with the blood of a top-tier true god, was unprecedentedly effective.

The internal purge of discipline within the Red Heart Society has achieved a decisive, phased victory!

The radiance of a pure heart once again envelops the Star Abyss.

However, beneath this seemingly settled surface, in the hearts of those top-tier Transcendent Gods from the Spirit Realm and the Abyss, what surged was not genuine submission, but a raging torrent of boundless resentment and chilling fear.

[Aglaus's power and ruthlessness, and the terror of the Redheart Society's war machine, truly sent chills down their spines, making them dare not act rashly again.]

But beneath this submission lies a resentment, like a venomous snake coiled within.

[If it weren't for the fear of those five transcendent beings who were hunting down the incarnations of the Great World's will outside the Star Abyss, especially that killing god Ye Lingtian!]

How could they be so humiliated?

[After all, the power of those who transcend is unfathomable. If they learn of the true gods' rebellion, they will return at all costs and crush these transformed true gods like ants.]

This looming catastrophe, which could strike at any moment, is the true sword of Damocles hanging over their heads, forcing even the Transcendent God to temporarily lie low. (End of Chapter)
