The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 498: A Thousand Years of Preparation (2)

After seeing off his wives, Maximus began perfecting the rules of the World Tree.

Using the origin fragments, he started weaving and manipulating the origin of laws according to the predetermined structure he had deduced.

Each World Tree had a unique combination of origin of laws, similar to the river of laws.

Moving them according to a pattern aligned with the river of knowledge, Maximus began his work.

After years passed without much progress, Maximus frowned.

"This won't work. I need to use the Causality of Power!"

Turning to his system, he began to utilize causality points to weave the origin of rules toward his vision.

A hundred years later, the dimension inside the World Tree began to shake, expanding as waves of energy surged.

The whole world seemed to light up as the origin of laws began to sway and harmonize with it.

All plants, animals, minerals, and treasures within the World Tree also began to mutate, advancing alongside the world.

Far away in the Elfalhn Dimension, three tier 11 supreme witches of the race also felt the advancement of a World Tree.

"What?! A World Tree has evolved to perfection!?" Sylvara, the first supreme witch muttered in shock.

"This is impossible! The rules of the Aeon Plane only allow for the existence of nine perfect World Trees!" Elderra, the second supreme witch said.

"Ask the Ancestral World Tree what is happening!" Veridra, the third supreme witch, muttered in panic.

"It's no use; the World Tree is in deep sleep. Unless a catastrophe descends upon the tribe, it won't wake up."

"Then what should we do?"

"Nothing. The world is about to change. The appearance of another perfect World Tree is a good omen. Maybe it will help us in the future…" Sylvara muttered calmly.

"I hope so…"

…

A few years later, with the perfection of the origin of laws in the World Tree, the dimension within expanded greatly.

The energy and laws became more abundant and easier to comprehend, making the place comparable to a tier 12 dimension.

Although it didn't have the strength, capacity, or defense of a real tier 12 dimension, the complete origin of laws and dense law energy were enough.

"However, the consumption is staggering…"

He could feel the World Tree consuming hundreds of thousands of origin fragments every day—nearly a hundred million origin coins a year.

The Dimensional Library could only earn a little over a hundred million origin coins annually. At this rate, he would be drained of funds sooner or later.

Suddenly, an infusion of knowledge gave him an idea: Utilize the power of his physique to power the entire dimension.

Maximus had intensely studied the utilization of his physique, the dimensional source.

One of his proudest works was the Ethercore technologies.

These devices could absorb his energy and convert it into attacks or material, making them formidable weapons.

This technology was also one of the industries of the Etherium Realm.

Hidden in the core of the Etherium Alliance were trillions of these devices producing materials all the time.

With this alone, Maximus could earn millions of origin coins every year.

He had also used a version of this technology during his fights in the Virtual Tower.

Unfortunately, after his death from a top guardian overpowering his strength, he knew such toys were useless in higher realms, so he didn't continue developing those weapons.

Taking advantage of the influx of inspiration from the river of knowledge, he used his Causality of Power to deduce an Ethercore device generator that could power the world.

Days, months, and years passed, and Maximus felt his mind swelling with fatigue.

…

A hundred years later.

Using tier 12 materials he just bought, he refined and formed a dimensional generator, engraving it with runes of maxim, connecting and harmonizing it with the World Tree.

"Finally deduced! Tier 12 Ethercore Dimensional Generator!"

Turning on the device the energy consumption in the place immediately decreased by 10%.

"Amazing! Such efficiency! If this essence of law could be converted into origin of law, I'd be rich!"

The Ethercore Dimensional Generator was made up of 100 trillion mini-generators, each capable of absorbing his total output per second.

With all 100 trillion of them working simultaneously, it could produce nearly ten thousand units of energy equivalent to origin fragments.

Unfortunately, because of his lack of skill, the tier 12 Ethercore Dimensional Treasure was not worthy of its rank.

Although he called it a tier 12 treasure, it's only because he used tier 12 materials.

If taken apart, the array and material arrangement of it was only at tier 10 rank.

If not for the forceful deduction of the seal of truth and the help of the river of knowledge, he might not even use the tier 12 materials so casually.

"Just ten more, and it could completely solve the World Tree's energy problem!"

However, calculating the cost made Maximus's face fall.

Each Ethercore Dimensional Generator cost a whopping ten billion origin coins in materials alone.

This expensive device was even more costly than tier 11 dimensional treasures he had bought for the Etherium Realm.

Ten of them would cost him a hundred billion origin coins, which he didn't have.

After his recent spending spree for the development of the Etherium Realm and the World Tree, his hundreds of billions of origin coins had shrunk to less than a hundred billion.

"It seems it's time to expand the Dimensional Origin Library!"

Needing more money and having more power, Maximus turned his attention to the Dimensional Origin Library.

Since its first establishment, Maximus hadn't expanded the place.

Besides adding books and knowledge from time to time, he hadn't done much.

Thinking of this, he considered introducing advanced rooms and knowledge to the library.

Using pure Causality of Power and the tier 10 and 11 knowledge he had copied over the past thousands of years, he could surely rack up a ton of money.

The only problem would be the trouble.

If he did this, he would enter the sight of the entire Dimensional Alliance.

Treading on the edge of rules, no matter how careful he was, one wrong move, and he could fall into an abyss of no return.

"But no matter…"

Strength breeds confidence. Aside from the tier 12 overlords, he wasn't afraid of anyone.

Furthermore, he planned to live incognito in the coming hundreds of years.

No matter how much commotion he caused, it wouldn't reach him.

His only concern was Liam and Lux, as they didn't have backing like their brothers and sisters.

If he caused trouble, the enemy might target them.

"I should've let them join a sect," Maximus patted his head in distress.

Shaking his head, he thought of various shortcomings and solutions to his plan.

Despite the dangers, he wasn't willing to give up.

If the Dimensional Origin Library expanded according to his vision, earning billions of origin coins every year would be easy.

However, with his current strength, Maximus couldn't monopolize all the profits if the library expanded further.

He considered involving the Starling family, the Elfalhn family, and even the Immortal Palace Sect.

But as he pondered about the matter, an uncomfortable feeling arose.

Maximus admitted he was selfish; he couldn't stomach the idea of sharing profits just because he was scared of earning too much.

Sacrificing his pride for a little more profit didn't seem worth it.

Finally shelving the idea, Maximus planned to expand the Dimensional Origin Library once he became a master of the river of knowledge.

At that time, as a master of a river of knowledge, it would be natural for his library to flourish.

He would also have more confidence to solve the problems that might come after. story-source-MvLeMpYr

Sighing, he turned his attention to the Etherium Realm.

Perfecting the rules of his World Tree, the only thing left to do was reinforce the Etherium Realm.

Especially by taking Etheria with him, the Etherium Realm would become vulnerable to invasions and various uncontrollable factors.

Maximus had long thought of a solution for reinforcing the Etherium Realm: the Amalgamation of Will.

Currently, it was a tier 9 energy system, but based on deductions from the Seal of Truth, once it reached the tier 10 energy system, it would solve his current problem.

"Deducing the advancement path of the Amalgamation of Will…" Maximus couldn't help but sigh at yet another task.

These past hundreds of years, he hadn't had much rest.

From the tier 10 solution to revising the tier 10 origin manual, the perfection of the World Tree, the Ethercore Dimensional Generator, and now the advancement of the Amalgamation of Will—Maximus was mentally exhausted and just wanted to rest.

"Huh~ let's rest first,"

Maximus was accustomed to being lazy, and working hard for hundreds of years was too much for him.

Deciding to take a break, Maximus began indulging with his wives.

Taking them to the Virtual Realm for a trip and shopping spree, they feasted to their hearts' content.

Still unsatisfied, he also visited the Immortal Palace Realm to comfort the lonely old witch.

"Are you thinking something bad?" Iris asked, sensing bad thoughts brewing in Maximus's mind.

"No, no, I'm just admiring your beauty~"

"Are you sure?"

"Sister, you can doubt my strength, but not my honesty!"

"As if I'd believe you," Iris said, rolling her eyes.

Trusting Maximus' honesty? Becoming more and more presumptuous every time they met, how could he still have any honesty left?

"Sister Iris, stop doubting. Come, it's your turn!"

"Hmph! What a bastard junior…"
