Chapter 1214 - 590:
Above the dome, stars are scattered, vast and boundless.
Countless points of light float within, slowly burning their own energy, releasing unique spiritual waves.
Fang Cheng did not rush to leave, sitting alone atop the high throne.
His gaze calmly swept over the entire dome of the great hall, like a king surveying his realm.
With the conclusion of the cross-dimensional confrontation just now, this starry sky constructed by spiritual power seemed to undergo some subtle changes.
The originally pitch-black curtain was drawn deeper and wider, making the entire dome appear more grand and magnificent, more like a true miniature universe.
Although the number of stars covering it did not increase, the order of their arrangement became more severe and orderly, clearly demonstrating his increasingly strengthened control.
It was like a star map that completely adhered to the Law of "Universal Gravitation."
Each star represented the consciousness coordinates of believers who had established a Spiritual Link with him, forming essential nodes of the entire Sun Heart Net.
As for the very center of the dome, that blazing sun symbolizing his own will radiated its brilliant light and heat in a posture of absolute supremacy.
A golden torrent radiated outward layer by layer from the core, like waves rising and falling, sweeping over the void.
In the area near the Great Sun, a huge light wheel nearly dense enough to be liquid had apparently formed.
This is the "absolute core zone" of the Sun Heart Net.
Within this range, many tiny yet exceptionally bright points of light are densely distributed.
Most of them are ordinary people in reality without special ability, making their light points appear rather small.
Many are unaware of the mutant world hidden in the dark, merely seeing Fang Cheng as a Divine being descended from legend, worshiping him.
Precisely because they have not been disturbed by other high-dimensional forces, their souls are pure and unblemished, resulting in a higher degree of compatibility with the Sun Heart Net.
Meanwhile, their faith in Fang Cheng is the purest, one might even say nearly fanatical.
Like loyal satellites and planets, they are firmly captured by the terrifying gravity of the sun, running steadily in this light wheel, providing the most basic energy support for the entire Heart Net.
Beyond this circle of light, the rays emitted by the sun begin to be gradually devoured and diluted by darkness.
There lies the vast and cold outer space.
Stars scattered in this region are slightly larger in size, but their light appears dim, and their orbits are rather unstable.
They represent two kinds of people.
One kind are mutants like Lin Chuqiao and the Professor who possess special ability.
Even if a Spiritual Link has been established, there are still barriers deep in their souls, always resisting the gravitational pull of the sun, drifting outside the core system.
The other kind are those influenced by Fang Cheng, but who have not formed devout faith.
At the very outermost edges, stars become increasingly sparse, their light flickering, and their trajectories chaotic.
Aside from these faltering edge stars, Fang Cheng can basically establish smooth connections with the consciousness coordinates of believers in outer space.
Although they cannot compare with the fanatical believers of the core region, they are enough to form relatively stable spiritual bonds.
Fang Cheng’s gaze shifted, landing once again on the point of light representing Shanks’ consciousness.
Just minutes ago, this star, like other new members, flickered at the very edge of the starry sky, ready to extinguish at any moment.
At this moment, it had completed an astounding leap.
It was like a comet forcibly dragged, crossing the vast Dark Void to plunge near the central region’s light wheel.
Its current position is even closer forward than the stars representing Lin Chuqiao and the Professor.
Only ranking behind Xu Hao and Xiao Shuai who were thoroughly brainwashed by the Great Sun Burning Body Technique.
Fang Cheng looked at the star steadily emitting light, a glint of brilliance flashing in his eyes.
This does not mean that Shanks’ feelings for him are deeper than Lin Chuqiao’s.
It is purely the result of a violent breach.
The experiment akin to snatching meat from a tiger’s mouth just now proved his conjecture completely feasible.
Directly erase the Old Gods’ imprint from the source of the spirit, then forcibly imprint his own mark.
Although this method is brutal, it is the most efficient way to manufacture Death Warriors with skyrocketing loyalty.
It eliminates the lengthy process of cultivating trust in reality, establishing a master-servant relationship directly on the soul level.
As long as Fang Cheng wills it, he could instantaneously shoot golden spiritual Light Arrows into the opponent’s sea of consciousness through a broad and stable channel, then forcibly pull their consciousness into this Inner World.
Even if some unforeseen events cause the target to nurture a heart of betrayal, "Divine Punishment" could still be delivered at the first opportunity.
Fang Cheng looked at the star of Shanks which had come alive with vitality again, a satisfied smile curling his lips.
This advanced utilization method of the Sun Heart Net allowed him to more securely control the entire organization.
It could be entirely extended in the future, applied to other members of the Illuminati, thoroughly resolving the troubles of mutual probing and suspicion.
"Hmm?"
While indulging in the thought, Fang Cheng’s pupils suddenly constricted slightly, sharply catching a trace of anomaly.
The star representing Shanks’ consciousness was subtly shifting in position.
Although the magnitude was so minute it was almost indiscernible to the naked eye, as the ruler of this world, Fang Cheng clearly perceived the deviation in its trajectory.
It seemed to be trembling, struggling.
As if some invisible force was dragging it, trying to pull it away from the gravitational range of the sun’s light wheel, plunging it back into the dark, boundless Abyss.
