Su Yu encounters a mirror projection of himself in an unknown realm, which claims to be a manifestation of his inner desire to become stronger—a powerful Subspace True God named Saintly Sin, far surpassing lesser Evil Gods. The entity reveals its divine function as the embodiment of all beings' drive for self-improvement across the universe and tempts Su Yu with visions of immense power through merging with it. Unswayed, Su Yu refuses the offer, insisting on relying on his own potential, prompting the projection to sigh and release him.

"Saintly Sin?"

As soon as Su Yu caught wind of this title, a flood of details flooded his mind from just those two simple terms.

These words appeared to embody one of the universe's core "truths," obvious and packed with rich meaning.

Initially, an overwhelming wave of resolve and bravery swelled in his chest.

Pushing ever higher, refining the self without cease, eternal pursuit.

Such defines the essence of "Saintly."

Abruptly then, Su Yu sensed an unfathomable wave of corruption, shadow, and brutality.

Along the road to personal growth, countless obstacles, trials, and lures await.

It's an unyielding odyssey of torment, where amid cosmic immensity and one's fragile form, transcendence seems impossible.

Yet, by casting aside boundaries and resolve, shortcuts become viable.

With little effort, tremendous might can be seized, regardless of abandoning one's humanity, employing ruthless tactics, slaughtering countless souls, or dooming whole star systems, solely to accelerate progress.

This embodies "Sin!"

Saintly Sin represents precisely this contradictory being.

Its sacred role stems from the primal drive for evolution in myriad creatures, the deep desire for greater strength, the wellspring of might.

The vibrant, ascending drive inherent in life forms its foundation.

This drive for upward advancement goes beyond mere strength.

It spans advancements in tech, knowledge, society, resolve, morality... and beyond.

Every aspiration toward self-betterment lies under its godly domain.

Should creatures uphold inner harmony while lifting their tech, knowledge, society, and morality to peak levels, they embody the true "Saintly."

Should the cosmos brim with such "Saintly" entities, harmony and splendor would reign supreme, akin to the fabled paradise.

In that case, Saintly Sin would evolve into an authentic exalted deity of virtue.

But evidently, such a scenario defies possibility.

Numerous species chase quick paths amid their quests for betterment.

Strength isn't solely forged through solo refinement; it can be seized or drained from fellow beings.

Offerings to the Evil God yield boons.

Trading one's vitality secures fleeting might.

Launching assaults on foreign races boosts growth via combat and carnage...

Likewise, tech, knowledge, society, entire societies... all permit detours, myriad ruthless approaches.

From pursuit of these detours spring infinite battles, agony, schemes, and misery.

Against this canvas, the cosmos inevitably descends into disorder.

Every entity dives into perpetual killing, conflict, raiding... to amplify their might without end.

When taken to its zenith, this becomes "Sin."

In the current primordial universe, the general atmosphere scarcely matches the Saintly; upon scrutiny, Sin dominates overwhelmingly.

"No surprise then..."

Su Yu grasps now the roots of the myriad clashes in this cosmos.

It all traces back to this Saintly Sin Evil God!

On the flip side, one might argue the ceaseless quarrels of cosmic inhabitants have spawned such vast "Sin."

Furthermore, Su Yu thinks back to the moment he forged a fresh vocation.

Then, he found channeling standard spiritual force into a vocation extraordinarily tough, rituals demanding immense effort.

In contrast, vocations powered by the Evil God Demon’s shadowy essence proved effortless to establish.

At the time, Su Yu attributed it to shifts in the subspace conditions.

That idea held partial truth.

Yet the profound cause lay in this universe's tilt: "Saintly" waning as "Sin" surges.

Vocations drawing on the Evil God Demon’s shadowy essence align nearer to "Sin," thus simpler to create and inherently stronger.

Grasping Saintly Sin's core, Su Yu fathoms all prior events fully.

Earlier, upon stepping into subspace, the Saintly Sin detected him at once and hauled him into that realm, granting a view over the whole cosmos.

The Saintly Sin views Su Yu with great esteem, filled with respect and favor.

It even believes Su Yu possesses the capacity to rise to its own level.

While odd to earn favor from so mighty an evil deity, reality stands thus.

Su Yu earns such esteem since his path and trials mirror flawlessly the "Saintly Sin" concept.

Through earnest toil and self-refinement, Su Yu captures the "Saintly" trait.

Yet he also embraced detours, wielding diverse tactics and cutthroat strategies to bolster his power, navigating dangers, staking his existence, and often wiping out societies, shattering dimensions even, embodying the "Sin" trait.

Within Su Yu burn unyielding bravery and ruthless intent; to the Saintly Sin Evil God, these traits gleam vividly.

Ordinary folk might harbor both tenacity and ruthlessness too, blending into the background seemingly.

What the Saintly Sin Evil God cherishes truly is... how Su Yu leveraged such intents to ascend to this might swiftly, a feat most astonishing and captivating to it.

Regardless of tenacity or ruthlessness, the end aim remains personal elevation.

Determination alone, absent true progress, holds no worth?

Su Yu matches the Saintly Sin’s ideals perfectly; resolve and growth coexist in him.

It appears, with sufficient time, Su Yu could strengthen boundlessly.

Hence, as Su Yu felled the paramount awareness that shook the cosmos, the Saintly Sin turned its gaze to him, spotting his exceptional nature instantly.

Later, Su Yu's subspace entry prompted it to pull him close.

At heart, it admires Su Yu, eager to grant a "shortcut," steering him toward peak "Sin" for swift empowerment.

Still, Su Yu rejected it firmly.

Blessings from an evil god come at steep prices.

On this matter, the Saintly Sin appears somewhat frustrated.

It delights in empowering formidable sorts like Su Yu, as they match its tastes.

But as Su Yu noted, those with real promise shun the Saintly Sin’s gifts.

Those craving such gifts fail to impress the Saintly Sin.

Thus, Su Yu's denial left it with no choice but to release him grudgingly, hoping he might reconsider in the future?

Should Su Yu ever yield, this mighty Evil God might swiftly despise and scorn him.

Before, the Saintly Sin treated Su Yu with reasonable courtesy, almost respectfully.

Still, its core stays evil godly; its clashing chaos strikes as ridiculous on reflection.

All these insights struck Su Yu the instant he learned Saintly Sin's true name.

A breath of ease escaped his heart; fortunate that his watcher was this approving Saintly Sin.

Were it some other terrifying force, danger would loom large.

All the same, per the Saintly Sin, beings of its caliber abound not alone.

Luckily, Su Yu has now departed, back in the subspace.

True enough, right now, Su Yu has departed that odd domain, genuinely immersed in subspace.

Regaining awareness, he starts surveying the primordial universe's subspace, noting variances from the Azure Star System.
