A month later.
Bip… Bip…
Maximus opened his eyes as his token vibrated.
“What happened?” He asked Tintin.
“Your wives broke through to tier 4.”
“Oh? So fast?” Maximus’s eyes lit up.
A month after giving his wives the tailored cultivation manual, they unexpectedly broke through.
He knew the condition of his wives and could break through at any time.
But as they were polishing their foundation, they held back.
“It seems that it’s effective,” Maximus muttered.
Worried about his wives’ foundation.
The cultivation manual he created absorbs various treasures as substitutes, strengthening their foundation.
“Looks like I should also start training.”
After he finished creating the ‘Origin,’ he was distracted by all kinds of things.
He also took his time to relax before formally starting training.
“Let’s see how many units of World’s Origin energy I have.”
Maximus tapped on the Ancient Battlefield and his profile.
[Lord Grim: Rank 5 Gold
Battles: 512,135
Wins: 512,131
Losses: 4
Ties: 0
Battle Power: 513,532
World’s Origin: 13,936,163]
“I don’t know how much this will get me…”
Maximus used less than 200 thousand units of World’s Origin to advance from tier 4 to tier 5.
Now, from tier 5 to 6, Maximus couldn’t calculate how much he needed.
Furthermore, his training manual was more demanding in terms of energy.
Before he started training, he sent Ragnar a message.
[Maximus: I will train first.]
[Ragnar: Oh? Is it going to take long?]
[Ragnar: It’s boring fighting alone.]
[Maximus: Good luck with your fight.]
[Ragnar: Hit me up after you finish training.]
Maximus didn’t bother to reply further.
A year ago, while he was creating a cultivation manual.
Ragnar dragged him to fight in the Ancient Battlefield.
They grouped together and fought.
Sometimes they also took Silas and fought 3 v 3.
Maximus only fought from time to time while waiting for his system points to refresh.
But Ragnar was immersed in it.
Unless Ragnar lost and had a cooldown, he would not stop.
This also caused Ragnar to be the rising star in the Ancient Battlefield, with over a million battles in just a year.
As for Maximus, he was hailed as the grandmaster fighting encyclopedia.
As long as he fought, people would flood in to watch, hoping to get a glimpse and learn his fighting style.
He also earned billions from the live-streaming fees per month, which he treated as pocket money.
Before training, he wanted to upgrade his mana compatibility first.
This is also why he didn’t start training immediately.
After all, the difference between rank 8 and rank 9 talent is enormous.
He didn’t want to waste the World’s Origin Energy he had painstakingly accumulated.
[Mana Compatibility: Rank 8 Supreme (0/100 million points)]
[Potential Points: 1,033,573,283]
“Over a billion potential points…”
Without hesitation, he began to add points to mana compatibility.
[+100 million PP]
[Mana Compatibility: Rank 9 Primordial (Please select a special physique)]
“Huh, I get to choose?” Maximus thought that this was automatic.
Curious, he looked at what special physiques were available.
[Chaos Body (Ultimate): Physical embodiment of raw, unpredictable chaos. The physique of unpredictable destructive chaos.]
[Elemental Body (Ultimate): Become the embodiment of all elements, making them your servants.]
[Ethereal Body (Ultimate): Can pass through anything from physical reality to virtual dreams.]
[Dragon Body (Ultimate): The embodiment of physical indestructibility.]
[Time-Space Body (Ultimate): The control over time, from speeding and slowing time to intervening with the river of time.]
[Void Body (Ultimate): The master of the void, the endless space that holds all dimensions.]
[Nexus Link Body (Ultimate): The link to all beings with consciousness. The pathway of dimensional causality.]
[Dimensional Source (Ultimate): The source energy of all dimensions.]
[…]
Looking at all the physiques that reached the ultimate level, Maximus nearly drooled.
Maximus hoped to have all these physiques.
Unfortunately, after he thought so, there seemed to be some premonition in the dark that destroyed this thought.
“Why can’t I have multiple physiques?” Maximus frowned.
Seeing no one to answer him, he took his time choosing the most powerful physique.
A day later,
“Huh~” Maximus breathed heavily as he finished browsing through the physiques.
“What to choose…”
Maximus was torn between the Time-Space Body, Nexus Link Body, and Dimensional Source.
With the Time-Space Body, he could basically control time.
From speeding up to slowing down, even going back to the past.
Of course, granted he was powerful enough.
As for the Nexus Link Body, it was basically the casual type of law that connected all living beings.
If he was powerful enough, he could connect through all dimensions, becoming the ethernet, becoming the pathway for the exchange of information.
Of course, it was more powerful than that.
But controlling the connection points of all dimensions, there was already a lot he could do.
As for the Dimensional Source, it was the source of energy for all dimensions.
Basically, with this physique, he could have unlimited energy.
“Time-space, no…”
He already had life points, although he still didn’t have much control over it, it was enough.
Furthermore, the ‘Origin’ he created mastered all the elements.
After he condensed the laws of time and space, it was almost the same.
“Nexus Link Body… no.”
Maximus finally decided to eliminate this physique.
He had a hunch that the one who created the Myriad World Mall had this physique.
He was worried that he would be detected by the creator.
Such a powerful being that managed to create a transdimensional platform was unfathomable.
“It’s Dimensional Source it is,” Maximus chose.
Energy is the driving source of everything.
With unlimited energy and the ‘Origin’ he created, he may possibly imitate these physiques.
When he tapped through the Dimensional Source Body, a panel popped up.
[Not enough points]
“You also need to pay?” Maximus was speechless.
After looking at the potential points needed, he sighed in relief.
“Fortunately, it’s only a billion points.”
[Potential Points: 972,073,283]
…
The amalgamation of will he received per day was worth over 38 million system points.
Plus the 200 thousand he received from his children.
“Wait for a day…”
…
A day later,
Maximus excitedly tapped the system to activate the Dimensional Source Body.
This time, he was ready.
He placed a tier 9 concealment formation within the room.
This small formation, which covered only this room, was worth over 100 trillion.
It was almost all the income he had earned from the sales of his shop in the Myriad World Mall this month.
Furthermore, it was also the cheapest kind that only had a concealment function.
He also cut off Tintin’s connection to the main token to be safe.
Soon, the Dimensional Source Body began to merge with him.
Streaks of mana that came from within the void seeped into him.
…
In the void just outside the Etherium Realm,
The void energy began to transform into pure mana and seep into the Etherium realm.
“Huh? What happened?”
Various peak powerhouses within the Etherium Realm began to notice this phenomenon.
Upon further investigation, they didn’t find the probable cause of this phenomenon.
Nonetheless, they were excited.
Although it seemed like the Etherium Continent had unlimited energy, it didn’t.
It was finite and stagnant.
The void energy outside the Etherium Realm was unreachable and unabsorbable.
The reason why the Etherium Realm was stuck was because of this.
How could it advance to a higher dimension without outside stimulation?
The only thing they could do to upgrade the Etherium Realm was to make its energy a higher quality.
Hence the full-blown prosperity of knights and mages.
With every mana they absorbed and released, the energy became of higher quality.
With every death, the energy they released was of higher quality.
Although it may seem insignificant, quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
Now, seeing that energy coming into the stagnant Etherium Realm,
These apex powerhouses seemed to see the dawn of their world advancing.
…
Three months later,
“Huh~”
“Finally absorbed~”
Maximus felt unlimited energy overflowing from his body.
After trying some mana-intensive spells, he felt that his mana didn’t even budge.
He also tried circulating this mana to hasten his training but failed.
“It seems that this unlimited mana can’t be used for training…”
After that, he tried various things, testing the limits of his physique.
“Huh~ Truly amazing.”
Maximus truly felt invincible.
“Unlimited Forbidden spell…”
*Hiss*
Imagining his future enemies, he could only pray for them.
Done with a brief experiment, he looked at his talent.
[Mana Compatibility: Rank 9 Supreme – Dimensional Source (0/1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)]
Looking at the zeros, he had already given up on upgrading his talent in a short while. 𝚘𝑣𝐞xt.𝑐𝓞𝗆
Maximus deduced that after his talent was upgraded to rank 10.
The Dimensional Source Body would provide him with unlimited law energy.
As of now, only his mana, soul energy, and physical energy were unlimited.
Before he started training, he connected Tintin to the main token.
Bip… Bip… Bip…
His token vibrated almost immediately, sending him messages and news over the past three months.
“It seems that something happened in these three months…”
