After a while, Lux managed to calm down.
However, the excitement of knowing that they possessed such a property still thrilled Lux.
It was like discovering that your family is hiding trillions of dollars while living as a middle class.
“By the way Dad, why did you bring me here?”
“What business do you want to talk about?”
Lux finally remembered that his father wanted to discuss some business with him.
“Could it be that you wanted me to inherit this?” Lux teased, although he secretly hoped it was true.
“Just dream; you have everything in there.”
“I brought you here to sell this to you,” Maximus pointed at the flora and fauna around.
Maximus thought it would be a waste to keep the plants here, especially the lower-tier ones.
They would only take up more space, crowding out other plants due to their fast growth.
“Sell?” Lux’s eyes lit up. If he could have these rare plants, he could use them as leverage to strengthen the business of Aetherium Guild.
“Sure, I will take everything,” Lux said quickly, fearing that his father would back out.
“Everything? Do you know how much it costs?”
“Can’t I borrow it?” Lux as if natural.
“I didn’t say that you can borrow it; you need to pay in cash.”
“Furthermore, there will be no discount; you need to pay the original amount,” Maximus smiled.
Maximus didn’t want Lux to have it easy; otherwise, he could just give him money and be done with it.
“That is fine,” Lux reluctantly agreed, lamenting the stinginess of his father.
Isn’t he his son?
How can a father be like this, not even sparing his hard-earned money?
“Hahaha, don’t be reluctant.”
“If you’re not my son, why would I sell these rare resources to you?”
“If I were willing to sell it to another top family or guild, maybe they would offer me multiple times the price,” Maximus said, noticing Lux’s mood.
“Oh, don’t worry, Dad, I’m not reluctant,” Lux smiled.
He just faked it; who knew if his father would be lighthearted and give him a discount?
“That’s better. I’ll give you the list later; tell me what you want to buy.”
“Hmmm.”
…
A few days later, in the training chamber:
Maximus just finished his daily training when his token vibrated.
“What is it Tintin?”
“It’s a notification for the Origin Mana Pool reward, In the World Competition three years ago,” Tintin answered.
“Oh, that’s right, I nearly forgot about this.”
Maximus remembered that in addition to treasures the top three will also be rewarded an Origin Mana Pool.
“Just right, I was still thinking about what wedding gift to give Liam and Amara,” Maximus pondered.
Origin Mana Pool is a vast collection of Origin Mana that can enhance one’s connection to the world, thereby increasing talent.
Unfortunately, he already possessed a rank 9 talent.
As for his elemental affinity, the Origin Pool is not very effective.
What is needed to enhance elemental affinity is an specific Elemental Origin.
This kind of thing is rare, and apex sovereigns often scramble to acquire it.
How could they just give it to the juniors?
Since he can’t use it, it’s better to use it as a wedding gift.
Giving it as a wedding gift to Liam and Amara is just right.
Amara originally had a rank 9 talent, but because she just reincarnated, it is still sealed.
By now, her talent is still at rank 7.
With the Origin Pool, she should quickly regain her former talent, progressing at a faster speed.
The only problem is that the possibility of Amara regaining her past memory after she regains her former talent is more likely.
Maximus can only wish that his son can handle it.
As for the possible retaliation of a former apex sovereign?
Maximus didn’t have that worry.
Not only can he fight hand to hand with a tier 7 beings, but if he uses his trump cards, killing any 8th tier being is easy.
Furthermore, he is confident when it come to training progress.
No one can surpass him, not even a former apex sovereign.
Now he was still in accumulation stage, which made his progress a little slow.
Once all of that is solve, Maximus was sure to advance like a rocket.
Coming out of his training chamber, he was greeted by Skye.
“Did you also receive the notification?” Skye asked.
“That’s right.”
“Then let’s go; this Origin Mana Pool is a good thing for making wines,” Skye said excitedly.
In a few lifetimes, Skye earned a lot of this Origin Mana Pool.
As she already had heaven-defying talent, the Origin Mana Pool was useless to her.
Turning it into wine is barely okay, which she can drink whenever she likes.
Wine is something that can soothe her mood, so she quite likes it.
The testament to this is the several stashes of wine she buried during her few lifetimes.
Skye just didn’t know if it was still there or if someone found it.
Soon the two came to the Origin Tower.
Entering, they were greeted by Dean Fealan.
“You two are finally here,” Fealan muttered as he grabbed them and teleported to the world origin.
…
Core of the World, Etherium World Origin:
Opening his eyes, Maximus felt an unprecedented oppression.
It seemed as if the whole world was bearing down on him.
Even with his deep foundation, he could barely resist the pressure, not to kneel down due to pressure.
Meanwhile, Skye also resisted the pressure that nearly knocked her down.
Every time Skye came here, it seemed that every hair on her body was the weight of a mountain.
“Hmm, good. You were able to resist the pressure, as expected of the no. 1 and no. 2,” Fealan nodded in satisfaction.
As the core of the world, the gravity here is so enormous that even he, a tier 9 apex sovereign, can barely fly.
As for teleportation, forget it.
Fealan was only able to teleport here because of the World Origin permission.
After a while, the top three, Elowen Shadowfang, and Apex Sovereign Alabaster from the Beast Continent came.
Unlike Maximus and Skye who was able to resist the pressure and can still stand.
Elowen was immediately knocked down like a pancake.
If it was not for the Alabaster’s assistance, his body would have been crushed by the pressure.
“Let’s go get your reward quickly; staying here is really uncomfortable,” Alabaster, who just came in, hurried.
The gravity in the Origin World is not the main problem, but its assimilation property.
If someone stays here for a long time, they will sooner or later be assimilated into the world.
Even now, Alabaster felt his blood being urged to be in the same frequency as this world.
If this were not his world, Alabaster would have thought that he was in an alternate abyss.
As for Maximus and Skye, they didn’t feel even a little of this world’s assimilation.
Possessing an Ultimate Dimensional Physique, how can a mere tier 9 world assimilate them?
It can only dream of being stronger so it can have these two delicious fish.
As for the system, Maximus didn’t know if the World Origin could detect the system.
Thus before he came here, he set the system into hibernation mode.
…
While Maximus and the others were picking their rewards,
In Sword Domain, Golden Sword Mountain Burial:
Alistair was silently meditating, absorbing the golden aura with a hint of sword.
With over a decade of training, Alistair had already recovered up to the 6th tier of his strength.
After untold hardship, he was finally about to return to his peak.
Alistair promised to change his nickname from the shortest Apex sovereign to ever live to the strongest swordsman alive.
This is what he learned after studying the history after his death. action
Such an embarrassing nickname, even now Alistair wished to cut that scum who came up with such a name.
Just as he finished absorbing the aura, a man came up to him.
“Hello, I’m Kufra. May I ask if Your Highness is Alistair?”
“I am. What do you need?” Alistair asked.
There should not be many who knew him.
Except for the few first Apex Sovereigns of the world, most of them only knew his name.
“I am tasked to send you a message,” Kufra started.
“Your sister Amara is going to get married in a few months.”
“Lady Amara wishes to have Your Highness present at such an important event,” Kufra explained.
Kufra was one of the guild members of the Shadow Hunters Guild who own an intelligence agency.
Finding and inviting Alistair to the wedding had a huge reward, so Kufra quickly mobilized his intelligence agency.
For three whole years, he and the others scoured the whole continent just to find this man.
Now that he found Alistair first, how could he not be excited?
Finishing this mission, he should be able to get up to the tier 6 chapter of the cultivation technique that he wanted.
“Oh, that little girl is going to get married?” Alistair was a little dumbfounded.
He had just left for a few years, and his sister was already getting married.
Furthermore, being able to find him, it seems that his sister’s husband is quite powerful.
“Then I’ll make sure to come,” Alistair said after thinking.
He would like to see if the man taking care of his sister is worthy.
Until now, he still didn’t know that Amara was also a former Apex sovereign from the Nexus Continent.
Alistair just treated Amara like a normal sister who was lucky enough to be his family member when he was still ignorant.
Kurfra also quickly gave the invitation letter, reminding him that he must come.
After all, his additional reward depends on this.
“Don’t worry, I won’t miss my sister’s wedding.”
