"My master once said that the most precious thing in any world was its world origin. It was the core of that world and offered immense benefits even to deities."
Chen Xiaojun paused here, then continued, "As for whether that is really the case, I'm not entirely sure."

"Put simply, forcibly taking the World Origin would exact an enormous price, perhaps one even they couldn't bear."
"Besides, even if they wanted to take it, they might not succeed. They have already become gods, and the plane consciousness rejects them."
"You can see that from the requirement that anyone who becomes a god in this world must leave within a hundred years."
At this point, Chen Xiaojun's tone grew heavier. "Once its world origin is taken, the entire world will fall into calamity."
"The world barrier will weaken, Heaven and Earth primordial qi will diminish... in short, the entire world's environment will become unbearably harsh. The world might even fall to a lower rank."
