A few months later…
After several months, the top forces finally uncovered why the Codexia world was generating so much commotion.
Aside from the flawless logical rules of the games, devoid of any bugs.
Upon reaching a certain milestone in the games, one can access the game exchange list.
This list not only contains everything the Etherium realm has to offer but also includes some unique items that Maximus hadn’t sold before.
Among unique treasures, materials, and knowledge, two unique items caught their attention: the Crystal of Life and the Crystal of Enlightenment.
Each Crystal of Life can extend one’s life by a day.
If it were only that, they wouldn’t even bother looking at it.
In the Etherium realm alone, many treasures could extend the life of a mortal for millions of years, let alone a few days.
However, what’s unique about this Crystal of Life is that it can be used an unlimited number of times regardless of the realm.
Unlike others, which had all sorts of limitations, the Crystal of Life did not.
Meaning, that if they could have an unlimited number of Crystals of Life, living an eternal life is no longer a dream.
A feat that can only be achieved by an Apex Sovereign can easily be achieved by anyone.
Especially those tier 8 powerhouses; if they could have more time, the chances of reaching tier 9 would skyrocket multiple times.
Furthermore, even if they couldn’t advance, they could still prolong their lives with the Crystal of Life.
In the exchange list, a single Crystal of Life only costs the equivalent of 10 million low-grade crystals.
Although it was unreachable for others, for peak powerhouses like them, besides the Apex Sovereigns, it was nothing but pocket change.
Their daily cultivation alone costs hundreds of millions; what’s an additional 10 million to extend their life?
Unfortunately, they can only obtain the Crystal of Life in the game.
The Crystal of Life was in limited quantity and was not for sale.
They can only enter the game and fight others for it.
This also elevated the game to another level.
With various tier 8 powerhouses entering the games, the Codexia world became even more lively and chaotic.
It also propelled the game from last place to enter top ten thousand rank.
As for the Crystal of Enlightenment, although it also received attention, it’s not as significant.
The function of the Crystal of Enlightenment was to make one undergo enlightenment on a certain subject for a moment.
After various calculations, this so-called enlightenment is only equivalent to a full day of concentrated study.
With time chambers reaching 1 to 1,000,000 ratio, this function is useless.
Instead of spending 10 million on that so-called enlightenment, why not buy more Crystals of Life?
However, what most of the forces didn’t know is that the Crystal of Enlightenment is not simple.
The brief moment of enlightenment is not based on their comprehension.
No matter how stupid they were or if they were in a bottleneck, a single Crystal of Enlightenment could break that barrier.
Fortunately, not all forces are stupid; some were more meticulous and lucky.
They tried the Crystal of Enlightenment at the right or enough times, thus noticing these properties.
Not wanting competition, they quickly suppressed the news.
…
While they were scrambling in the Codexia world, Maximus was busy modifying the Etherforge Reactor.
The current Etherforge reactor output is a hundred million units of energy per day.
Even if Maximus had millions of Etherforge Reactors printing rare resources worth thousands of times, he could only earn 2-3 trillion dimensional coins a year.
Compared to the tens of trillions of dimensional coins cost of each Etherforge and quintillions of dimensional coins maintenance fee of the Codexia world, it was nothing.
To break even, Maximus had to reconfigure the Etherforge Reactor or print rarer resources.
With higher-tier powerhouses entering the Codexia world, in just a few decades, they should be able to decipher tier 7 and above rare materials.
By then, even if the Etherforge Reactor remained the same, he would surely turn his income upward.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t wait that long.
With the money-devouring Codexia world, he would be bankrupt sooner or later.
Fortunately, with the opening of the exchange list, his expenses lessened a lot.
Most of the items there were inflated but cheaper than when he sold to the Apex Sovereigns.
This is equivalent to giving them less money.
After all, if they directly withdrew the money, he wouldn’t earn the price difference.
There is also the Crystal of Life and the Crystal of Enlightenment, which he directly condensed from his system.
One of each was condensed from a single System Life Point.
He already experimented with the limitations of these items.
The Crystal of Life can only extend one’s life; artificially making one older is not possible.
There is also the Crystal of Enlightenment; no matter how much one used, one can only push their mastery to perfection.
As for Transcendence mastery, it’s impossible.
One needs to have the system to break the wall between perfect mastery and Transcendence mastery.
Life points are quite easy to condense, as they are just strands of the Origin of Time.
However, for potential points, that could increase talent and potential, it’s impossible.
It seems to be a specialty of the system.
Unless he fully deciphered it, condensing the potential points is impossible.
Fortunately, the Crystal of Life and the Crystal of Enlightenment were enough.
With all kinds of powerhouses scrambling for them.
The money that others originally wanted to directly withdraw was bought by these powerhouses at a high price.
All of this effectively lessened his expenses to a few quintillion a year.
With no pressure from money, Maximus patiently modified the Etherforge Reactor.
Although it may not be profitable in the short term, it has unlimited potential.
As for the Dimensional Library, it was reaching its limits.
The Myriad World Mall only sells books up to tier 9.
From tier 10 and above, he can’t even find miscellaneous books.
Maximus didn’t know if it will be unlocked after he updated his transdimensional system.
However, as of now, it’s in a semi-retirement state.
He also couldn’t sell the tier 9 books he studied.
With quintillions of system points every day, Maximus has already studied all professions he is interested to tier 9.
If he sold this knowledge, Maximus would surely have no problem with money in the short term.
Unfortunately, as soon as he input it into his shop, he was barred by a copyright warning.
After a bit of investigation, he had come to know that all tier 9 knowledge was protected.
Unless it’s an entirely different technique, one couldn’t sell it in the Myriad World Mall.
Maximus was only able to sell those lower-tier knowledge because there were too many of them that had similarities.
Adding his transcendent insight into it was enough to qualify it to be sold.
To sell tier 9 knowledge, Maximus either had to modify the original content or create an entirely new one.
If he had that time, why not study more knowledge and enrich himself?
With no other choice, Maximus can only concentrate on other money-making schemes.
Looking at another failed prototype of the Etherforge reactor, he sighed.
“This won’t do…”
Without any progress, Maximus could only buy those tier-11 materials hoping to create miracle.
Opening the Etherium Alliance projection, he noticed something abnormal in his merit balance.
“Hmm?”
Initially, his balance jumped by hundreds of trillions every day.
However, with a quick calculation, it reached quadrillions of additional merits every day.
“What is it? Did those Apex Sovereigns do something?”
After inquiring about the world’s will, there was a shock and a smile on his face.
“The virtual game!”
That’s right, the virtual game, Codexia World, was formally acknowledged by the world’s will.
The benefits of the game were thus repaid with merits.
This is also why others are eager to upload their virtual applications to the world.
Not only can they make money in the game, but they also get benefits from the world’s will.
Maximus didn’t expect that his money game would be accepted by the world’s will.
Many had tried making games that directly gave money in the past.
But what they got was only some pitiful merits and an empty wallet.
Knowing this, Maximus didn’t expect much to earn from the game.
He only wanted everyone in the world to inscribe items so that he could print them.
He didn’t expect that the world’s will would be moved and directly give him money.
Maximus concluded that this should be thanks to the Crystal of Life and the Crystal of Enlightenment.
These two factors are what drive the game to be regarded as beneficial to the world, thus the world’s will rewarding him for it.
In a good mood, he contacted various Apex Sovereigns for their tier 11 materials.
