When Zhao Gongming saw the God of Light appear, he was not the least bit surprised, because he had long since seen through the God of Light's true nature.
So long as Karmak World did not perish, the God of Light could exist forever.
Of course, judging by the commotion caused when the Divine Kingdom's Divine Lord acted earlier, there was no need for a mighty being like him to act. Ordinary Supremes could also destroy a world.
Yet Karmak World was different. It was not entirely situated within the Chaos Sea; part of it remained connected to the Grand Cosmos. This meant that before it completely severed itself from the Grand Cosmos, according to the laws of the Divine Court, no god was permitted to destroy a world like it.
Of course, the Divine Court was not some gullible fool either. Though circumstances like those of Karmak World were extreme, they were hardly unique.
And to handle such situations, the Divine Court's Immortal Ascension Platform was often needed.
When the Divine Court's Ascension Envoy appeared, it meant the time had come for the world to completely detach from the Grand Cosmos.
At that time, all the benefits of being connected to the Grand Cosmos would be withdrawn.
Moreover, because it had previously fused with the Grand Cosmos, where the rules were stable and Transcendent power did not exist, the level of power within the world itself would be exceedingly low.
Once it detached, such a world would immediately become nourishment for other worlds.
Thus, whenever a world like Karmak World appeared, large factions such as the Buddha Kingdom and the Divine Kingdom would seize the initiative within it first, becoming its ruling gods before anyone else. Then, relying on the world's characteristics, they would rapidly increase their own strength.
