At that moment, a figure in a jade-green robe stepped out of the Shadow behind the council table. It was Observer No. 7. "You’re finally awake."

Observer No. 7 spoke calmly, a ball of green light floating above his palm. "The Observer No. 1 has controlled the Ancient Tribunal for years. All this time, he’s been draining the origins from every restricted zone. Once he devours all the planes, every living being in this world, including life on Earth, will be sacrificed to the Void aliens."

"When that happens, he’ll use that power to break through to the Void Lord stage—what we usually call the True God stage. At that point, not a single being in the entire multiverse will be able to stop him."

With that, he waved his hand, and a holographic screen appeared in front of everyone.

The projection showed a swirling star map of all the planes The Observer No. 1 had already controlled. A total of 128 divine origins were Flashing with bright light.

"The origins of those 128 planes he consumed naturally conflict with each other. Before, he kept them in check using the Truth Mark. But now that he’s trapped inside Kane, his ability to suppress them has weakened a lot." Observer No. 7 continued. "If he breaks free and returns to the plane graveyard to rebuild his true form, his power will peak at the True God level. None of us have reached that level yet, and we simply couldn’t stop him."

"Let me try. Maybe the will of the universe will guide us." Cassandra raised her staff of prophecy. The crystal at the top began to Flash rapidly, and pale gold divination runes constantly spun in the air.

A few minutes later, his face lit up. "I found his fatal flaw."

Cassandra’s voice carried a hint of excitement as he explained. "The stat of the 128 plane origins The Observer No. 1 consumed are all different, and they actively reject each other."

"If he channels more than ten Divine Rules at once, the conflicting origins of the planes he controls will spiral out of control. That will trigger a chain reaction of spontaneous combustion, causing him to fall apart from the inside, or even trigger Self-Destruct."

Observer No. 7 nodded. "Exactly. The reason he’s desperate for Logan’s body is because the world heart fragment inside Logan can unify all the rules. It would fix that flaw for him."

"As long as we force him to use multiple rules at the same time, he’ll collapse on his own. We won’t even need to lift a finger."

Hearing that Logan possessed a world heart fragment, everyone fell silent for a moment before quickly agreeing on a plan.

Observer No. 2 would use the time rule to disrupt The Observer No. 1’s sense of time...

Observer No. 3 would lock down the space to prevent The Observer No. 1 from escaping...

Observer No. 4, Observer No. 5, and Observer No. 6 would take the frontline, keeping The Observer No. 1 occupied and forcing him to deploy more rules...

Observer No. 7 would handle defensive creation rule-light generation...

Cassandra would handle precognition and warnings...

Clea and Gray Bone would provide support healing and soul suppression...

Finally, Logan would use the authority of the world heart to deliver a fatal blow to The Observer No. 1 the moment his Divine Rule Self-Destruct mechanism activates.

"To stop him from retreating to the plane graveyard to rebuild his true form, we’ll seal this area off first."

Observer No. 7 raised his hand, spreading a green creation rule-light across the area. It formed a massive wall covering the entire plane graveyard, cutting off all space portals.

At the same time, a faint Resonance echoed from the direction of the Creation Temple.

Observer No. 9’s soul fragments drifted out from the temple. They also emitted the light of the creation rule, merging with Observer No. 7’s spatial barrier to create a double lockdown.

Seeing the sealing formation before them, everyone nodded in satisfaction.

Cassandra looked at the formation that combined the strengths of all the observers and sighed. "With this array, even if The Observer No. 1 actually breaks free, he won’t be able to easily punch through this lockdown to reach the plane graveyard."

Meanwhile, Observer No. 3 took out the cross-plane communication array of the Ancient Tribunal and quickly linked up with Logan.

As soon as Logan’s projection appeared in the center of the array, everyone laid out their plans.

After hearing the full assault strategy, Logan nodded. He agreed it was a solid plan. "I’ll adjust the seal on purpose, leaving wider cracks to lure him into constantly pushing against it with his rules. This will drain his power early."

"At the same time, to get him used to handling multiple rules for future fights, I’ll consciously loosen the seal. That way, when he tries to blast it with combined rules, he’ll actually make some progress."

"This will make him dependent on fusing multiple Divine Rules. Then, when we launch our full attack in three days, he’ll instinctively call upon more rules, making it much easier to trigger the spontaneous combustion."

Hearing Logan’s advice, the observers in the room all stared at him, eyes wide.

Right now, the way they looked at Logan was filled with caution and shock.

Only after cutting the communication link did Observer No. 2 finally let out a breath. "This kid is way too cunning."

On the other side.

After the call ended, Logan got straight to work adjusting the seal’s structure.

The original pin-sized cracks were widened to the size of a rice grain. This allowed The Observer No. 1 to channel much more power, and his strikes against the seal grew heavier.

"Hahaha! Your seal is about to break! When I get out, I’ll kill you first!" The Observer No. 1’s excited roar echoed from inside the seal.

He fired three rules at the gap like a madman, completely unaware it was a trap set by Logan.

Logan sat beside the seal, watching The Observer No. 1 exhaust his power like a fool, a cold smile touching his lips.

Three days would be enough to drain his power to barely half. By the time the full attack happened, he wouldn’t have a choice but to push even harder.

...

Meanwhile, while Logan was draining The Observer No. 1, the eight observers were still arguing.

"Is this your B Plan? Betting everything on a single Earth human?" Observer No. 2 watched time rule light swirl around his fingertips, his brow furrowed. He had just regained consciousness and still doubted Logan’s true identity.

"Listen up. You all need to know that if this plan fails, we are completely powerless to stop The Observer No. 1. If that happens, the only future waiting for us is becoming puppets again, or even being devoured." Observer No. 7 raised his hand and released a patch of green light, sharing the exact energy signature from the fragment of Logan’s world heart. "Rather than getting eaten by The Observer No. 1, why not keep investing in Logan and make him stronger? Remember, Logan holds the world heart. He can absorb our Divine Rules with almost zero backlash."

Sensing that the energy matched the primordial rules of their origin world, Observer No. 2 relaxed his tense shoulders. "So this is the world heart... The feeling is so familiar."

Observer No. 3 showed everyone the faint scar on his forehead where the puppets mark used to be. "Do you all feel this too? I’ve always suspected that the world heart inside Logan comes from the world we used to live in."

Hearing Observer No. 3’s guess, everyone fell silent for a few seconds.

Seeing their hesitation, Cassandra sighed. "Even if you’re not doing this to invest in him, you need to think about yourselves first."

"I can prove it. The world heart inside Logan is the same one from our shared homeland, the Origin World."

"You all know the rules well enough. If we merge our Divine Rules and soul origins into the world heart, no outsider can control our souls."

"We would completely escape the threat of being enslaved by The Observer No. 1. Far from being a loss, this is a guarantee for our safety."

Hearing Cassandra’s words, everyone’s eyes widened in shock.

"If Logan’s world heart truly comes from our old world, I agree to share my power with him." Observer No. 2 nodded firmly, clearly convinced.

With Observer No. 2 setting the example, the others quickly reached an agreement.

Their goal was simple: use Logan’s world heart to break free from the threat of being enslaved and devoured by The Observer No. 1.

By sharing their Divine Rules and soul marks with Logan through the world heart, they were essentially signing a contract to become Logan’s familiars.

In return, Logan could quickly absorb the Divine Rule power held by the eight observers through the world heart.

As Demigods, these observers possessed a vast, endless sea of Divine Rules.

Once Logan understood their Divine Rules and turned them into his own power, his stage and combat strength would undoubtedly take a massive leap forward.

With that settled, Observer No. 3 raised his hand. Pale gold space chains shot from his fingertips, linking the foreheads of the remaining seven.

Using the Ancient Tribunal secret technique [rule Resonance soul link], he built a cross-plane mind network.

Observer No. 2 went first. He opened up his time rule origins and demonstrated the core techniques of multi-layered Time Anchoring and parallel timeline simulation.

Observer No. 3 contributed his ultimate mastery of the Space Rule, sharing core experience in spatial compression and cross-plane portal construction.

The other observers—Numbers 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8—opened up their rule origins one by one. Meanwhile, Observer No. 9’s soul fragments drifted from the Creation Temple, projecting the divination techniques of the Prophecy Rule.

Soon, the rule-light from all eight palms wove together into a massive glowing array. It crossed planes and reached straight into Logan’s mind.

At that moment, Logan was busy maintaining the seal on Kane.

The sudden influx of power caught him completely off guard, so he immediately retreated into his familiar world.

Above Logan’s familiar world, unfamiliar Divine Rules were constantly gathering and compressing, slowly taking shape as brand-new planets.

Logan frowned at the sudden external power, but then he quickly summoned a singularity black hole to devour and digest it.

As the power was absorbed, Logan finally realized where it came from. It was a soul gift from the eight observers in the First Restricted Zone.

"This... are they trying to form a soul contract with me? I can’t believe I got this lucky."

Overjoyed, Logan pushed the singularity black hole to its absolute limit, spinning it as fast as it could go.
