It's like a clash between a company that focuses on meticulous management and growth, and a company that develops recklessly and extensively.
Under the same conditions, or even slightly worse conditions, the advantages of meticulous management in growth far outweigh those of extensive and reckless development.
During their sparring match.
Odin almost raised his power to the level of a single universe. If he hadn't been afraid that unleashing his full power would immediately put him into the multiverse level, Odin would have used almost all of his strength.
Even so, it only achieved a certain degree of suppression over Rennes.
When Odin first started showing off and only used his Celestial-level power in the fight, he was like a sitting duck, being controlled and attacked by Raine for an entire day.
This battle also allowed Renn to understand his current combat strength.
Without using the Blood-Transforming Demon Blade, it would be difficult for Raine to inflict fatal damage on a single universe-level powerhouse.
Similarly, even if a single universe-level powerhouse unleashes their full power, without any special methods, it would be difficult for them to pose a significant threat to Renn.
Even someone like Odin, a top-tier individual among those powerful beings in a single universe.
Without resorting to the ultimate trump card of Gungnir's spear, which guarantees a hit, they could only exert limited pressure on Renn.
If he were at the Heavenly Father level, Raine would basically be able to kill indiscriminately.
After all, Renn is a true cheater.
Since obtaining the Luofu World Mark, Renn has naturally reached an extremely profound level in his understanding of the Dao Realm.
The intangible wealth that those countless teachings and methods have brought to Renn is truly immense.
There's no need for enlightenment; simply enhance your magical power, physical body, and spirit, while also stabilizing your mental state.
Raine can unleash the full power of any spell or supernatural ability to its limit.
If spiritual practice is a test...
The moment Ryan received the exam paper, the World Imprint had already instilled all the correct answers into him.
While others struggled with answering questions, Ryan took an open-book exam.
Open-book exams are one thing, but the kind where even flipping through the book has an automatic search function is another.
He was covered in cheat codes.
Raine's combat strength does not depend on his cultivation level, but on the amount of his vital energy and spirit.
Raine's cultivation speed does not depend on accumulation, but on how quickly he can acquire resources.
This is why.
The reason why Raine and Odin had such different expressions after they came out of the training ground.
After returning to the long table on either side of the Hanging Gardens.
Frigga saw Odin's expression and knew what was going on.
In this sparring match, Raine must have had some extraordinary abilities, even causing Odin to suffer considerable losses...
Then, Frigga gently patted Odin's arm, half to comfort and half to remind him, "Your Majesty, you were the one who suggested the battle. The stronger Rein is, the safer the children will be in the future, right?"
Odin was taken aback by Frigga's words.
Then, Odin took a deep breath, glanced at Raine with a helpless expression, shook his head and chuckled.
A short while later.
Odin looked at Renn and said, "Young friend Renn, now we can talk about how much you'd like to add to the price."
Raine didn't stand on ceremony and said directly, "Your Majesty, I want Asgard's Rainbow Bridge technology."
Odin raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat hesitant.
Frigga gently reminded him, "Your Majesty, Ragnarok will destroy everything. If Raine can master the Rainbow Bridge technology, it will be a glory for Asgard. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Odin nodded and said, "Great! You've got a really sharp eye, kid."
"The Rainbow Bridge technology is the most precious treasure of Asgard besides its divine lineage."
“Midgard is also under the protection of the World Tree, so it can be given to you.”
"Besides that, what else do you want?"
Without hesitation, Raine replied, "The Fountain of Wisdom."
Odin's expression changed slightly, but he still said, "Okay, but there's not much Wisdom Water left. I can only give you one pot at most."
Renn smiled shyly and said, "How about adding the Monument of Life?"
Odin silently placed his hand on Gungnir and said, "It's fine, but kid Renn, I'm warning you, you'd better not be too greedy. Greed is a sin, and you can't control it!"
Renn nodded and said, "Your Majesty is so generous, how could I be greedy?"
"If it's possible, I'd like to borrow some books from Asgard's library. Is that alright, Your Majesty? Rest assured, I won't take a single page with me."
White vapor began to billow from Odin's nostrils, and lightning flashed on the tip of his spear.
What a treacherous and greedy bastard!
You won't take away a single page, but you will take away the treasures within.

In the final negotiations, Raine had an impeccable grasp of Odin's psychology.
Raine's demands all fell just short of Odin's tolerance.
The Rainbow Bridge technology is undoubtedly one of Asgard's ultimate assets, but due to the impending Ragnarok and Frigga's persuasion, Odin readily agreed.
The remaining Wisdom Fountain, the Monument of Life, and Runes.
These three items are very precious, but they are not magical artifacts that can increase immediate combat power. Whether Odin gives them to you or not will not have much of an impact.
If Raine were to replace those three items with Asgardian artifacts, Odin wouldn't be so agreeable.
Of course, Raine also looked down on the Asgardian artifacts to some extent.
In terms of crafting equipment, Asgardian artifacts are not without merit.
But even if there is something, it's not much.
Moreover, in Raine's view, after Odin dies, he can simply make another trip to Asgard and bring the entire dwarf race under his control.
17. Rein is also very interested in the entire Nine Realms.
With Odin gone, Ragnarok arrived. Without Asgard's rule, the beings of the Nine Realms must be quite unaccustomed to it. It shouldn't be a problem for them to reluctantly follow in Odin's footsteps.
At that time, the entire Nine Realms, and even the World Tree, will be his.
This is also why Raine deliberately asked for the three items unique to the Aesir.
The Fountain of Wisdom is said to be the source of Odin's omniscience, and anything that can increase wisdom must be the most precious natural treasure.
If the effect is sufficient, Raine deliberately uses this opportunity to condense the sword of wisdom and integrate it into his own sword embryo.
The Monument of Life is a treasure that Odin obtained when the continent of Atlantis sank into the sea.
Legend has it that it contains the life equations that enable organisms to evolve infinitely, as well as the formulas for potions that can make people young again.
Needless to say, the runes are the origin of the Aesir civilization, the traces of laws left by the World Tree.
With these things, Renn's strength will definitely increase significantly.
Raine was overjoyed to have received Odin's promise.
And at the same time.
Odin, equally solemn, spoke up to remind him, "Young Raine, you took the old man's treasure; I hope you remember the responsibility you should bear."
While it was meant as a reminder, Odin's words likely contained a hint of warning.
Under normal circumstances, Renn might have had another showdown with Odin.
But now that we've just squeezed a lot of money out of them, it's not a big deal for them to be a little tough on us.
Moreover, amidst Odin's seemingly harsh warning, Renn faintly sensed a helpless plea, even one that was somewhat sorrowful and poignant.
A god-king of his generation, yet in the end, he couldn't even guarantee the safety of his own children.
While feeling sorry for him, Renn couldn't help but feel a little curious.
After a moment's thought.
Raine said very seriously, "Your Majesty Odin, rest assured, as a Daoist cultivator, I will do my utmost to fulfill my promise regarding cause and effect and state of mind."
"However, I have some questions in my mind, but I'm not sure if I should ask them..."
Hearing Raine's earnest tone, Odin felt a little comforted.
But after hearing the second half of Ryan's sentence.
Odin seemed to sense the question in Ragnarok's mind and asked, "Is what you want to ask related to Ragnarok?"
Raine nodded and said, "Since His Majesty Odin has already foreseen the arrival of Ragnarok, I wonder why he doesn't try to change that so-called future. If it's just because of fate or something, it seems..."
Raine didn't finish her sentence, but Odin understood what she meant.
After a moment of silence.
