Starting to Gain Experience from Push-Ups Chapter 1214 - 590:

Stars dotted the ceiling of the dome, stretching out in endless vastness.
Myriad specks of light drifted inside, steadily consuming their own power while emitting distinct spiritual fluctuations.
Fang Cheng didn't hurry to depart, remaining seated by himself on the lofty throne.
His eyes steadily scanned the full expanse of the grand hall's dome, akin to a sovereign overlooking his domain.
Following the end of the recent cross-dimensional clash, this spiritual energy-formed starry sky appeared to experience certain delicate shifts.
The once utterly dark backdrop grew even deeper and broader, rendering the whole dome more majestic and splendid, resembling a genuine tiny cosmos.
Though the quantity of stars blanketing it stayed the same, their positioning turned more rigorous and structured, plainly showing his growing mastery.
It resembled a star chart perfectly following the Law of "Universal Gravitation."
Every star stood for the awareness coordinates of faithful followers linked spiritually to him, serving as key junctions in the full Sun Heart Net.
Right at the dome's heart, that fiery sun embodying his own determination shone forth its dazzling glow and warmth with utter dominance.
Golden streams poured outward in successive layers from the nucleus, resembling surging waves that swept through the emptiness.
Close to the Great Sun, a massive luminous ring, almost solid like liquid, had clearly taken shape.
This marks the "absolute core zone" of the Sun Heart Net.
In this area, numerous small but intensely radiant light spots crowded together densely.
The majority belonged to everyday folks in the real world lacking special powers, so their glows seemed quite modest.
They knew nothing of the mutant realm lurking in shadows, simply viewing Fang Cheng as a legendary Deity who descended, adoring him devoutly.
Because external high-dimensional influences hadn't tainted them, their spirits stayed pristine and spotless, yielding superior harmony with the Sun Heart Net.
At the same time, their devotion to Fang Cheng proved the most unadulterated, bordering on utter zeal.
Acting as devoted moons and worlds, they remained tightly bound by the sun's fearsome pull, orbiting reliably within this radiant ring, supplying the fundamental power for the whole Heart Net.
Outside this glowing band, the sun's beams started fading, gradually swallowed by the gloom.
There stretched the immense, frigid outer cosmos.
Stars in this zone were somewhat bigger, yet their shine looked subdued, with paths that wavered.
They signified two types of individuals.
One type included mutants such as Lin Chuqiao and the Professor, endowed with unique abilities.
Despite forming a Spiritual Link, deep soul barriers persisted in them, constantly defying the sun's attraction, lingering beyond the central setup.
The other type consisted of those swayed by Fang Cheng yet lacking true pious belief.
At the farthest fringes, stars grew scarcer, their lights wavering, paths disordered.
Besides these shaky border stars, Fang Cheng could reliably connect to the awareness coordinates of outer space believers.
Though not matching the core fanatics, they still forged solid spiritual ties.
Fang Cheng’s eyes moved, fixing anew on the light point for Shanks’ awareness.
Merely moments prior, this star, like fellow newcomers, had blinked at the starry sky's brink, on the verge of winking out.
Now, it had achieved a astonishing surge.
Like a comet yanked by force, it traversed the immense Dark Void to dive toward the central light ring.
Its present spot lay even nearer than those for Lin Chuqiao and the Professor.
Trailing only Xu Hao and Xiao Shuai, fully indoctrinated by the Great Sun Burning Body Technique.
Fang Cheng stared at the steadily glowing star, a spark of insight gleaming in his gaze.
This didn't indicate Shanks harbored deeper sentiments toward him than Lin Chuqiao.
It stemmed solely from a ruthless override.
The bold test akin to wresting food from a tiger's jaws earlier fully validated his hypothesis as workable.
Directly wipe out the Old Gods’ mark from the spirit's origin, then impose his own seal by force.
Though savage, this approach offered the quickest path to forging Death Warriors of soaring allegiance.
It bypassed the drawn-out real-world trust-building, forging a soul-deep master-servant bond outright.
Whenever Fang Cheng desired, he could fire golden spiritual Light Arrows into the foe’s mind sea via a wide, firm conduit, then yank their awareness into this Inner World.
Should unexpected betrayal brew in the target, "Divine Punishment" could strike without delay.
Fang Cheng regarded Shanks' star, now pulsing with fresh vigor, a pleased grin forming on his mouth.
This sophisticated use of the Sun Heart Net let him grip the full group more firmly.
It could fully expand later to Illuminati members, eradicating issues of wary distrust.
"Hmm?"
As he savored the idea, Fang Cheng’s pupils narrowed faintly, keenly spotting a hint of irregularity.
The star for Shanks’ awareness shifted position ever so slightly.
Though the change was tiny, nearly invisible, as this realm's lord, Fang Cheng distinctly sensed its orbital drift.
It appeared to quiver, resist.
As though an unseen power tugged it, seeking to wrench it from the sun’s light ring's hold, hurling it back to the dark, endless Abyss.
