The Void suddenly fell silent.

A deep eye opened in the sky, reflecting not scenery, but the chaotic scene of the beginning of all things. All the Sun God Pantheon within the domain simultaneously felt that the foundation of their existence was being shaken.

The God of Law merely raised his right hand, and the phantom of the Holy Grail of Origin emerged from his palm. It was not a material entity, but rather the concept of "existence" suddenly gained a focal point.

Centered on the rim of the Holy Grail of Origin, the vast space began to "rewind," and the blazing Blazing Sun Divine Light that had shot forth flowed back, like fireworks rewinding and shrinking back into the Eternal Blazing Sun. Countless golden threads appeared in the air, which were the causal chain of attack and result.

With a flick of his finger, the God of Law snapped a thread, and suddenly, countless phantom warships appeared in the previously empty Void —the very same imperial fleets that had been annihilated by the Eternal Blazing Sun's attack.

Having done all this, the God of Law slowly raised his head and looked at the Sun God.

Above his head, the Holy Grail of Origin was clashing with the aura of the Eternal Blazing Sun; the two Miracle Creation were evenly matched, and neither could overcome the other.

The Holy Grail of Origin is not in the traditional shape of a cup or goblet, but rather a personification of the concept of "existence." Compared to the Eternal Blazing Sun shines throughout the heavens, the Holy Grail of Origin has no fixed form. Sometimes it appears as a drop of suspended dark golden liquid, and sometimes it unfolds into a swirling nebula. The form of the Grail that is currently displayed is just one of its many forms.

Within a light-year radius of the Holy Grail, a self-contained "Origin Domain" exists, where time flows in a circular pattern, cause and effect are reversed, and twelve "conceptual tassels" naturally hang from the rim of the cup, symbolizing: matter, energy, time, space, life, death, order, chaos, consciousness, and Fate.

On the surface of the Holy Grail, ripples flow at the boundary between "existence" and "nothingness," and the viewer can see the echo of the origin of their own life. The cup is formed by the condensation of a large number of "embryonic membranes of the unborn universe," and its translucent appearance contains the faint light of billions of stars at birth.

The Holy Grail of Origin does not contain liquid, but rather the primordial state before all possibilities collapsed into reality, as deep as the oldest night, yet constantly bursting with sparks of creation-level energy.

This is called "Ability Energy".

One of the two super energy sources controlled by the Northern Spirit Empire.

Another major super energy source is "Origin Energy".

Unlike "Origin Energy," which is mainly used in industry and warfare, it generally serves as a power source for various technological machines.

The function of "Ability Energy" is much simpler: to cultivate a group of Ability Energy and enhance the empire's overall strength in the realm of the Transcendent.

Even the Ability Energy profession of "Transcendent individuals" is named as such because of the "Ability Energy" produced by the Holy Grail of Origin.

After drinking a drop of "Ability Energy," any living being will awaken the Ability Energy that best matches its own nature, which is its bloodline talent.

What's even more terrifying is that the "Ability Energy" can be used multiple times.

The second consumption can promote the evolution of Ability Energy and break through the inherent limits. The third consumption will touch the "Origin Reconstruction", Ability Energy will be sublimated into an existence that is closer to the laws of the world. After that, a fourth and fifth consumption can be carried out, but the effect will not be as good as the first three times.

But it's not entirely ineffective.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Holy Grail of Origin that the Northern Spirit Empire was able to develop and grow into one of the Transcendent Ability Energy Transcendent the Astral Realm in a very short period of time, comparable to professions such as knights and spellcasters, by using bloodline sorcerers as a model.

Especially among the Transcendent groups in technologically advanced civilizations, those with Ability Energy generally occupy a mainstream position, and the exemplary role of the Northern Spirit Empire has played an indispensable role.

Besides its role in cultivating groups of Ability Energy, the Holy Grail of Origin's combat power is also not to be underestimated.

This Miracle Creation possesses the Miracle Trait known as the "Origin Point," capable of directly granting or depriving "existence." Possessing the Holy Grail of Origin allows it to imbue objects with the concept of "life," bringing spirits to rocks; it can imbue energy with the concept of "consciousness," creating elemental spirits; and it can even imbue space with the concept of "time," creating independent Space-Time...

It can also trace the origins of anything touched by the power of the Holy Grail, allowing us to trace its original form and even "return" enemies to their unborn state, including their Fate, existence, nothingness, and so on, all traced back to their origin.

An Eternal and another being, though not Eternity, possessing the full power of Eternity combat, gazed at each other across a vast Void.

Their gazes transcended Space-Time, igniting a fierce spark.

The God of War had returned to the ranks of the gods, but his expression was not good, because a part of his "existence" had been cut off, sealed, and taken away by the fleet of the Northern Spirit Empire.

This also led to a certain degree of decline in the God of God of War's strength.

Of course, as the God of War of the Astral Realm, one of the beings closest to the Eternal, even with a slight decrease in combat power, the God of War's strength still easily reaches the level of Peak Supreme God, making it no problem to easily defeat beings like the Ancestral Tree of Destruction and the Infinite Serpent.

But the realm of Eternity has undoubtedly become even more distant.

However, the Sun God was not dissatisfied with this outcome; on the contrary, he felt that this God of War was just right.

The fact that it doesn't suddenly break through to become Eternal makes it more controllable and predictable, and easier to manage.

Otherwise, if it were a fully-fledged God of War of War, after being incorporated into the Sun God Pantheon, the Sun God would still have to devote some of his energy to keeping an eye on him.

Despite thinking this in his heart, on the surface, the Sun God still completely stood on the side of the God of God of War. His face was filled with clear anger, and his eyes were spitting out raging fire.

"God of Law, relinquish a portion of Dax's existence."

"Hehe, Sun God, stop pretending. This is probably the result you wanted, isn't it? The God of War becoming incomplete makes it easier for you to control him, doesn't it?" The God of Law smiled slightly, the Holy Grail of Origin above his head spinning rapidly, releasing continuous Origin Ripples that affected everything around it.

It is like a massive Black Hole in the cosmos, whose very existence draws in a vast amount of matter and energy.

The words of the God of Law caused a slight change in the expressions of the gods of the Sun God Pantheon. As they exchanged glances, their eyes subtly turned to the imposing figure standing at the forefront of the gods.

The God of War remained expressionless, but what he truly thought after hearing these words was unknown.

The Sun God's anger intensified; this time, He was truly enraged.

Seeing through it but not saying it, the Northern Spirit Empire is truly despicable.

"Nonsense! You bandit who attacked the God of War and coveted his Primordial Divine Soul, what credibility do you have? Since you refuse to return Dax's part of his existence, then we'll take it ourselves!"

"All Sun God Pantheon, heed my command! Kill!!"

Boom!!

As the Sun God finished speaking, the Void sky, shrouded in billions of divine lights, suddenly trembled violently. Countless divine chants erupted forth, sweeping through the network of rules and reaching the depths of the hearts of countless beings in the Void.

Amidst the rolling divine sounds, carrying the terrifying will of the gods, a sweeping attack ensued. Suddenly, majestic and solemn Spirit Ruins appeared in the vast Void, wielding various divine artifacts and unleashing terrifying divine techniques, overwhelming the fleet of the Northern Spirit Empire.
