In this Cosmos, if a world gave rise to a Deity of overwhelming power...

...and the other Deities could not and did not even dare to resist...

...then, the Law of the Celestial Realm—the Mana Will—would automatically open the world's Heart Core, offering it the chance to integrate with the fundamental 'Path'.

And so,

once Lince completed this step,

the entire world effectively became his personal garden, an existence similar to a Divine Kingdom.

Admittedly,

the way this Cosmos worked reminded Lince of the Earth Giant Dragon's Planet Divine Kingdom.

'The methods were just too similar.'

But there was no point dwelling on it.

Now,

it had been almost a year since Lince's successful Path Integration.

It was because of this successful Path Integration that his cultivation realm in this world had smoothly ascended to the Peak of the Fourth Heaven.

This put him at a level incredibly close to that of a Star God.

A Third Heaven world,

actually managing to nurture an existence incredibly close to the Fifth Heaven.

According to the natural order of this world, something like this was absolutely impossible.

But then again, Lince had a cheat.

The depth of his original life force naturally provided this vessel with a considerable boost.

Furthermore, his comprehension of the Laws was far beyond the norm.

In his current state, conquering other Third Heaven worlds...

Lince felt it would be an extremely simple matter.

For now, however, Lince was in no rush.

He needed to give the mortals, who had only just been unified, some time.

He needed more Witches and greater fighting strength to ensure the upcoming campaigns went smoothly.

Therefore,

this was a task for his three Subordinate Gods.

After a moment of consideration,

Lince began to transmit his instructions to White Rat, Sparrow, and Earth Dragon regarding the changes that needed to be made in the Mortal World.

Lince had no intention of accomplishing everything at once.

So, he simply borrowed some systems typical of the Ancient Extraordinary Worlds in the Star Cosmos to establish a more centralized government.

This would also facilitate the upcoming conquests by providing a reliable system of rewards and punishments,

as well as the orderly dissemination of and compliance with decrees among the mortals.

In short, Lince gave these Three Gods twenty years!

He required the entire Fiery Sun World to fully establish a unified language, culture, and system of weights and measures within those twenty years.

To achieve true unification.

Additionally, he also needed more Witch God Halls to be established throughout the world,

and to expand the reserves of potential Witches as much as possible.

Therefore, educational institutions like Witchcraft Academies also had to be systematically rolled out.

Twenty years.

For a world under the complete supervision of a god, this was more than enough time to accomplish everything.

And during this period,

Lince would also be giving the Witches of the Flame Race time to advance to the rank of Great Witch.

As for where Lince would find another world in twenty years?

He didn't even need to worry about that.

Because after Lince's Path Integration, the relevant information had already appeared in his mind.

According to the inherent Laws of this Cosmos, as long as a world produced a qualified Controller,

then by the Law, this Controller would receive a message.

The message was an offer: whether or not to initiate the world's ascension trial.

If initiated,

a Void Realm Gate would naturally appear in both the Celestial Realm and the Mortal World!

The Void Realm Gate was similar to the Star Realm Gate.

In essence, it was a safe passage to another world.

Conversely, the other world could also attack Lince's world.

But the most interesting thing about this Cosmos was that,

in its Laws, no world had a so-called 'newbie protection period'.

As long as a world initiated an ascension trial,

the gate would randomly connect to another world of the same rank.

This was regardless of whether that world was already unified,

or whether its pantheon was settled.

In other words,

if the Fiery Sun World were to initiate its world ascension trial,

the resulting Void Realm Gate would inevitably lead to another Third Heaven world.

Only after a victor emerges between the two worlds would the Void Realm Gate open a path to the next Third Heaven world.

Conversely,

if a Third Heaven world had already opened a Void Realm Gate,

it meant it could very well be invaded by a Sixth Heaven world.

Because opening a Void Realm Gate meant the world had entered a scenario similar to a 'clash of civilizations'.

Therefore, a Sixth Heaven world theoretically also had a chance of being matched with a Third Heaven world.

A Lower-Rank world's ascension trial won't match its Void Realm Gate to an Upper-Rank world.

An Upper-Rank world, however, can be matched to a Lower-Rank one.

So, when you looked at it that way, there was a 'newbie protection period' after all.

As long as the lowest-ranked Third Heaven worlds did not proactively open a Void Realm Gate, they would at least not encounter invaders from worlds beyond the Third Heaven.

But once a Third Heaven world opens a Void Realm Gate, entering the grand arena of 'civilizational conflict'...

...there would be no turning back.

During this process, you could very well face an invasion from a Sixth Heaven world, or even one from the Ninth Heaven or higher.

If you wanted to avoid being invaded,

Lince also thought of a bug he could exploit.

You had to ensure you were perpetually in a state of war with another world.

For example, say your Void Realm Gate was open to a Third Heaven world, and the invasion was locked in a stalemate.

As long as no victor was decided, the Void Realm Gate wouldn't close.

And if it didn't close, it could naturally only lead to that one world.

But even this wasn't a sure thing.

After all, no one knew if this Law was effective against even higher-ranked worlds above the Ninth Heaven.
