The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 501: Endless Void Nullrift

Endless Void Nullrift:

Opening the void portal, the void ship, 'Shadow' arrived at the great Aeon garbage patch.

This place is said to have a mysterious power that pulls all debris and waste from across the Aeon Plane.

Seeing the endless expanse of ruins, Maximus and the others couldn't help but be amazed.

"Is this the Endless Void Nullrift? Just like the legends say! Endless piles of trash and treasure—the culmination of Aeon Plane's history and battles!"

The towering mountains of garbage were made up of destroyed dimensions, waste materials, ship wreckage, and bodies of all kinds of beings.

Despite the danger and chaos, the Endless Void Nullrift possessed a different kind of beauty.

"Wanderer, deploy the probes. Voyager, be careful controlling 'Shadow'; we might crash into a wreckage. We can't be careless," Maximus ordered hastily.

"As ordered, host!"

"Roger that!"

While executing the orders, Maximus and his wives looked fascinated by the ruins.

"The area seems to be filled with void pollution," Skye frowned, sensing the energy.

"A mere pollution of this degree can't harm the ship," Maximus reassured her.

Void pollution, the corrupted essence of causality of power, was the bane of all beings.

Poisoning the void and laws, nothing could be born before it.

Even a tier 10 individual, without enough strength could be corrupted to death.

Feeling an urge from the system, Maximus began absorbing the void pollution around him.

[+1… +0.5… +0.22… +0.9… +0.5…]

The concentration of void pollution varied; being at the edge of the Endless Void Nullrift, he couldn't even absorb one unit of corrupted causality of power every second.

However, seeing the stable increase, Maximus felt his decision to venture into the void was right.

Every second, every minute, every hour, he gained units of corrupted causality points.

"What a great place!"

Soon, the group became busy.

After Wanderer released the probe to ensure there was no danger, Maximus's wives ventured outside for a tour.

They collected wreckage, destroyed treasures, bodies of various species, and even some spoiled plants.

It didn't feel like a garbage site but a treasure trove.

Seeing this, Maximus just shook his head, amused, while busy collecting causality points.

He also urged Voyager to head deeper into the Endless Void Nullrift, where the void pollution was more concentrated.

A few months passed, and Maximus had collected over a million corrupted causality points.

Although it wasn't as fast as when he was in the Immortal Palace Realm, it was free.

As they traveled further into the center of the Endless Void Nullrift, Maximus absorbed the corrupted causality points to enhance his physique.

Unfortunately, due to the energy's corruptive power, he had to cleanse the negative effects before absorbing more.

Maximus calculated that he could absorb around a hundred corrupted causality points per minute at most.

Even if he absorbed them without stopping, it would still take him 200,000 years to upgrade his physique to Rank 12.

Fortunately, his absorption speed wasn't fixed.

If he grew stronger, the system's purification ability improved, or if he gained greater mastery over the river of knowledge, his absorption speed would also increase.

Moreover, doing all three of these at once was possible.

By comprehending the runic code of the system, Maximus's mastery of the river of knowledge also grew steadily.

Meanwhile, absorbing Tier 10 liquid solutions ensured his cultivation didn't fall behind.

Growing stronger every day, Maximus felt fulfilled.

His wives soon returned to their usual activities.

After a few days of excitement, they went back to the World Tree to train, experiment, and tend to their home.

Most of the time, they were in the small ship gazing into the void, huddling with each other, feeling the warmth of their companionship.

Watching Erica cook leisurely in the small kitchen of 'Shadow', Maximus felt a sense of homeliness.

With his wives by his side, even in such a confined space, he felt he had everything in the world.

As they ate their daily meal, Wanderer suddenly issued a warning.

"Host, a mutated Tier 10 void beast has been detected. Should we reroute?"

"A monster?" Interest sparked in their eyes.

After months of flying through the void, only seeing debris had become monotonous.

The appearance of a monster was a welcome distraction.

"No need to reroute. It seems my wives need some entertainment."

"As ordered, host!"

Soon, they encountered a ginormous mutated void beast in their flight path.

Looking at its bloated and grotesque body, they couldn't help but feel disgusted.

"Who's going to fight?"

"Me! I want to try it!" Skye eagerly raised her hand.

"I also want to get some action," Freya muttered.

"Anyone else?"

"No, we were just eating. Killing such a grotesque monster at this time is disgusting."

"Then it's only Skye and Freya. Be careful, alright? Don't push yourselves too hard."

"Hmm," they nodded and exited the Shadow Ship.

Though void pollution surrounded them, it wasn't a serious threat.

With their strength, the pollution was only mildly irritating.

Soon Skye and Freya launched large-scale attacks on the beast's enormous body.

In response, the monster roared and unleashed a massive wave of void pollution at them.

The concentration was enough to melt even a tier 10 material, much less their fragile body.

"Not good!" the people on the ship muttered nervously.

However, Skye and Freya's combat proficiency was not to be underestimated.

Easily dodging the attack, they continued bombarding the creature.

After a few minutes of fighting, the monster collapsed, its body falling apart like pieces of meat from the sky.

[+1,242,093 Causality Point (Corrupted)]

"Such a huge amount of Causality points?!" Maximus thought, shocked, as he saw the corrupted causality points jump by over a million.

"Is this the monster's experience points?" he mused playfully.

After collecting a few samples of the creature's remains, they continued their journey.

This time, Maximus instructed Wanderer to seek out more mutated monsters instead of avoiding them.

Since these monsters contained large amounts of void pollution, his collection of corrupted causality points accelerated.

Years passed, and with this new target, Maximus's collection of corrupted causality points became more efficient.

[Corrupted Causality Points: 262,256,000]

Looking at the points he had gathered, Maximus couldn't help but smile.

"Collecting corrupted causality of power seems easy."

Maximus needed 10 trillion points to upgrade his physique; at this rate, it might only take tens of thousand years to collect them.

Unfortunately, his absorption speed was too low, capped at around a hundred units per minute.

"If only these corrupted causality points could be used for other things…"

The joy of collecting hundreds of millions of points was dampened by the realization that they were corrupted and could only be used to upgrade his physique.

Determined, Maximus focused on deducing the system's runic program, hoping to upgrade its purification ability.

Even a slight improvement would allow him to use the corrupted points as an energy source.

From dimensional power source to void ship, as long as these corrupted points could be used, he would save a lot.

While Maximus was furiously working on the system, Wanderer's voice interrupted over the intercom.

"Host, a gathering has been found a few light-years from here. Should we engage?"

"Oh? We finally found a gathering stronghold? This place is really vast."

Although they had encountered various treasure hunters and pirates in the past few years, they hadn't come across a proper gathering place.

"What's the name of the place?"

"It's called the 1438 Nullspire Foothold."

"A gathering place for the Dimensional Alliance? Engage, let's gather some information…" Maximus ordered.

Gathering places are divided into three categories: those of the Dimensional Alliance, those of the Devourers, and neutral grounds for trade between the two.

According to the data Jixie copied, the Nullspire Foothold was a gathering place for Dimensional Alliance citizens.

The 1438 Nullspire Foothold seemed to be only overseen by a Tier 11 individual, which wasn't dangerous considering Maximus's strength.

…

1438 Nullspire Foothold

After parking 'Shadow' hidden in the void, Maximus and his wives donned disguises before exiting the ship.

"Wow, we finally found signs of civilization. I thought we'd only see garbage for years!"

Though there were various creatures in the World Tree, they still felt a bit lonely in space.

Stepping into a gathering place, their curiosity was piqued.

Wearing heavy coats, they toured the area, sampling different foods and buying souvenirs.

Amidst their fun, they didn't forget their mission to gather information.

From the position of other strongholds, dangers, different forces, commodity prices, and more importantly, the exact time of the Void tide.

The Void Tide is a phenomenon in the Endless Nullrift where high-tier materials from the core of the void are ejected.

These materials range from Tier 10 to Tier 12.

Though they're often wrecked and filled with void pollution, with some treatment and purification, they can be sold for high prices.

This event only occurs once every millions of years, and according to their husband, there should be less than a hundred years left before it happens. MVLeMpYr-unofficial-chapter

As for the exact timing, that's what they needed to discover.

Being caught in the Void Tide while deep in the Endless Void Nullrift would be dangerous.

Even in their Tier 12 ship, they could be swept away into an unknown dimension.

Soon, after scouring the place and listening to the conversations around them, they gathered the information they sought.

"Seventy years before the Void Tide…"
