Chapter 843 The Allure and Stimulation of the Hunting Origin
The Demon Hunter was not unaware that the Founder would return, nor was he unaware of the consequences of defection.
He just doesn't care!
He didn't care what his future self would be like in the next timeline, he didn't care about the future of the Red Heart Society, and he didn't care about the life and death of billions of lives.
He only cares about himself in the present moment: whether he can gain power, live more comfortably, and achieve a higher status.
Therefore, Aglios took action himself.
[The Demon Hunter roared in despair, recounting his illustrious achievements for the Red Heart Society, lamenting his sacrifices, and even kneeling to beg for mercy, willing to give anything in exchange for his life.]
But Agris's eyes remained completely unchanged throughout.
【Demon Hunter, everything you received from the Crimson Heart Society will now be returned to you in its entirety.】
In the year 982214 of the Extraordinary Calendar, Aglus, with unparalleled power, forcibly extracted the essence of the Hunting Rules from the Demon Hunter God's body, which had become one with his soul.
[It was a beam of primordial light, entirely black, wrapped with countless blood-red chains. It contained the insights the Demon Hunter God had gained over hundreds of millions of years regarding the rules of the hunt, and was also stained with the blood and resentment of countless living beings.]
The moment his essence was stripped away, the Demon Hunter let out a scream that echoed throughout the heavens. His divine body crumbled inch by inch, and his soul was cast into the Eternal Purgatory of the Crimson Heart Society, to suffer the torment of hunting for eternity.
Afterwards, Agrus brought this weighty source of the hunting rules back to the Red Heart Society headquarters and placed it at the very center of the Rules Stele Forest.
This forest of steles is the most sacred place in the Red Heart Society, where the rule imprints left by Red Heart Society transcendents who died in battle throughout the ages, as well as the primal power stolen from their enemies.
[Agrius hereby establishes a rule: in the future, if any True God who comprehends the rules of the hunt reaches the pinnacle of a top-tier True God, they can activate this source and directly ascend to become a transcendent being.]
The moment this news broke, the entire Red Heart Society erupted in excitement.
[The Transcendent Realm is a realm that countless cultivators cannot reach even after a lifetime of effort. For ordinary True Gods to break through, they not only need unparalleled talent and perseverance, but also an extraordinary stroke of luck; the slightest misstep will result in their death and the annihilation of their cultivation.]
Now, a direct and unrestricted path to transcendence has been laid bare before everyone.
[In an instant, a turbulent situation arose within the Red Heart Society.]
Countless demigods who originally cultivated other rules have abandoned their cultivation and switched to the hunting rule.
The hunting-related secret realms in each branch were packed to capacity, and even some True Gods who had already achieved something in other rules were considering switching to other cultivation methods.
In a short period of time, the Red Heart Society produced many Hunting Gods, many of whom were exceptionally talented.
The overall strength of the Red Heart Society, far from declining, has actually increased amidst this unprecedented surge in cultivation enthusiasm, reaching another peak since its founder.
In the year 990235 of the Extraordinary Calendar, the Red Heart Society finally accumulated sufficient power.
At Agrus's command, the Red Heart Society's billions of troops split into 720 groups and launched a full-scale counterattack against the abyss that lurked at the edge of the transcendent universe.
Under Aglios's leadership, the warriors of the Red Heart Society advanced with unstoppable momentum.
Those abyssal monsters that once struck fear into the hearts of countless civilizations were utterly no match for the Red Heart Society's iron hooves.
One by one, the abyssal fortresses were uprooted, and the abyssal rifts were completely sealed.
The Abyss army suffered a crushing defeat! In just a thousand years, all defenses were completely breached.
What shocked all living beings the most was that, from beginning to end, the will of the abyss never again gave rise to any transcendent beings to fight against it.
It's not that He doesn't want to!
[It's not that they dare not!]
[From the last war with the Creators, the Will of the Abyss had clearly realized that ordinary transcendents were utterly vulnerable before the leaders of the Red Heart Society.]
[The transcendent being He cultivated at the cost of countless sources of His essence could not withstand more than ten moves against Agrus. In the end, He would only suffer the fate of death and the stripping away of His fundamental rule essence, becoming yet another cold exhibit in the Forest of Rules of the Red Heart Society.]
Rather than needlessly sacrificing our source and allowing the Crimson Heart Society to grow stronger, it's better to endure for now.
The will of the abyss huddled in the dark core of the universe, watching its territory being devoured bit by bit, feeling Agris's sun-like, scorching will sweep across the entire abyss, its heart filled with boundless fear and resentment.
He knew that as long as Agrippa was alive, He would never have a chance to rise again.
[But the era of Agrelius has only just begun.]
In the year 997847 of the Extraordinary Calendar, the iron hooves of the Crimson Heart Society's counterattack trampled into the first battlefield created within the Abyss: the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons.
This is one of the oldest birthplaces of the Abyss, where countless powerful monsters have been conceived and born over billions of years.
At the bottom of the abyss flows a river of highly corrosive black blood, and the air is filled with chaotic energy capable of corroding even the bodies of true gods.
The Abyss's Will has concentrated all its remaining forces here. It knows that once the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons falls, the Red Heart Society's army can advance unimpeded and directly threaten its core lair.
On the first day of the battle, the sky was forever stained crimson.
The true gods of the Red Heart Society displayed terrifying combat prowess. Like the most precise hunters, they moved through the dense horde of monsters, each strike hitting the monsters' weaknesses with pinpoint accuracy.
The power of rules was unleashed to their fullest extent: tracking, concealment, and a fatal blow. Those abyssal monsters that once plunged countless civilizations into despair became lambs to the slaughter before them.
[And one young hunting god named Ling Ye was particularly dazzling.]
[He was originally just an ordinary demigod from a remote branch of the Red Heart Society. After the Hunting Origin was unlocked, he resolutely abandoned the Flame Rule he had cultivated for 30,000 years and started from scratch to cultivate Hunting.]
In just three thousand years, he rose from an unknown demigod to the realm of a true god.
During the Battle of Ten Thousand Demon Abyss, Ling Ye single-handedly slew three Abyss Demon Gods.
His figure traversed the skies above the River of Black Blood, each time he drew his hunting longbow to its fullest extent, a beam of black light shot forth, piercing the heavens and earth, pinning distant demons to the abyss's rocky walls.
The allure of the hunting spirit has indeed created an exceptional prodigy!
The high-ranking members of the Red Heart Society were all deeply moved by the sight of the battlefield.
Argus stood above the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons, his silver cloak fluttering in the blood-red wind.
He didn't rush to attack, but quietly observed the battlefield. His gaze swept over each Hunting True God, finally landing on Ling Ye, a barely perceptible hint of approval flashing in his eyes. (End of Chapter)
