Chapter 265 Return to Abyss Realm
Chapter 265 Return to Abyss Realm
Fortunately, the range of his domain was amplified within the Empire, thanks to the amalgamation of will.
The Moonlight Empire could be considered within the scope of his domain.
As he traveled around, observing the changes in the empire.
He also investigated the current state of the Curse Continent.
Currently, the Curse Continent is unprecedentedly peaceful.
Even the sea beast tide, which was still ongoing, seems to be curbed at the moment.
However, beneath these disguises lies a cruel trial and a war waiting to erupt like a volcano.
Multiple empires formed alliances, various covert operations, secret dealings with the other three continents, etc.
All kinds of mixed ingredients can be said to be being mixed in the pot called the Curse Continent.
What amazed Maximus the most was the Westle Empire.
This Empire currently occupies almost one-fourth of the ruling power in the Curse Continent.
There were only over a thousand surviving empires in the Curse Continent.
Others were either destroyed or merged by other empires.
This means that hundreds of empires were secretly under the Westle Empire\'s control.
This information made Maximus frown a little.
It\'s not that he is scared by the potential of the Westle Empire.
It\'s simply because this accelerates the culmination point of the Era of Imperial Domination.
Now, instead of thousands of years as he previously estimated.
There are only hundreds of years or even less than a hundred years before a huge war sweeps the Curse Continent.
This means Maximus needs to hurry.
Otherwise, the Moonlight Empire would be swept into dust before he knew it.
After all, he would rather let the Moonlight Empire perish than expose all his cards to the world.
Of course, he can also take the Moonlight Empire, break its connection in the Curse Continent, and wander in the chaotic sea.
"A hundred years..." Maximus gave himself a timeframe.
A hundred years to reach tier 8.
If he can do it, he can ensure the safety of his family and his empire without any problems.
"Looks like I have to increase my efforts."
Right now, his only business in the abyss realm is Shadow Hunter Pavilion.
This is mainly to acquire abyss sources and provide manpower, not even money.
He needed a plan to convert his dimensional coins into crystal merits quickly.
Sitting in his system were over three hundred thousand trillion dimensional coins.
However, even if converted into crystal merits, the purified abyss origin, it was not enough.
He needed at least a 100,000,000 trillion dimensional coins merits to advance to tier 8.
His current income was simply not enough to earn this in a hundred years.
His only chance was to sell tier 8 books in his shop in the Myriad World Mall.
However, even after decades, his progress with mastering all tier 8 cultivation manuals, skills, spells, etc., was not even 10 percent.
"Looks like I need to concentrate my system points on this," Maximus thought.
Due to a lack of urgency, previously all his system points were invested in studying various physiques, domains, and other miscellaneous professions.
Now, concentrating his system points, which were over a trillion daily.
Maximus estimated that he would soon sell tier 8 books in about 50 years or even less.
After all, after coming back to the abyss, he could continue to collect abyss source, further enhancing his daily system points generation.
While thinking about his plan, he felt his family in the castle nearing saturation.
Before they could fully advance to tier 7, he immediately stopped.
"Let\'s return to the castle," Maximus said to Skye and his two grandchildren.
"Are they finished training?" Maya asked excitedly.
"Yes."
...
In the castle, seeing that they were awake, the most excited one was Martin.
Now he was able to walk and run.
Seeing his parents, who were only with him for a few days, he couldn\'t help but be excited and run to them.
"Mommy! Daddy!"
"Martin!" Zoe exclaimed, missing her son.
Nathan just smiled, looking at the mother and son interaction.
As for the rest, they just looked at the two, reminiscing about the past.
Shaking his head, Maximus turned to look at his wives\' affectionate gaze.
"How did it go?" Maximus asked.
"We are already at the peak of the 6th tier; just a little push, and we\'ll advance to tier 7."
"I see," Maximus nodded.
Although they could advance forcefully with crystal merits, Maximus deliberately stopped it from happening.
They needed to experience breakthroughs by themselves and form a domain.
Otherwise, their potential would be lacking.
After all, they also needed their own input and experience to advance further.
Furthermore, if they advanced at the same time in such a short period, chaos would ensue.
Maybe this presence here and the existence of intact crystal merits would be exposed the next day.
It\'s still okay if his presence here was noticed.
At most, people would be amazed and curious about how he could come back to the Etherium realm independently.
But if the possession of intact crystal merits is known, there would be no place for him to hide.
Crystal Merits is a purified abyss origin, which is more effective than Etherium origin.
Being able to bring it back without the attention of the world\'s will would already touch their main interest.
They would kill just to know some information about it.
Thus, Maximus made sure that his family didn\'t show any weirdness and halted their advancement.
Furthermore, they also needed to maximize their soul will and soul amplitude before advancing to have a stronger foundation.
Anyway, he would need 30 years to accumulate enough mana to go back to the abyss realm.
Just enough time for his family to fully advance.
...
Thirty Years Passed.
Maximus remained hidden in the empire.
While his children continued to do their own business, Maximus stayed with his wives.
It seems that his wives wanted to recover the years that he left.
Maximus also worked super hard to produce the next generation.
Unfortunately, the binding of this world is really hard to beat.
Even with an unlimited amount of money, there was still no movement.
Fortunately, his wife, Jane, was not in a hurry to have a child.
As for Skye, she had no idea about it for the time being.
For her, staying with Maximus is enough; there is no need for these trinkets.
Over the years, his family and in-laws also broke to tier 7 one by one.
However, they still stayed in the Etherium realm, waiting for him.
Anyway, they didn\'t mind if they were sent to harsher places in the Abyss realm.
With Maximus\'s current status and connection in the abyss realm, fetching them was no problem.
In the castle, all of them gathered as they said their goodbyes to Maximus.
In the room were Maximus, his wives, children, and his in-laws; Amara, Elysienne, Zoe, Ella, and Aria.
Over the years, Elysienne officially married Liam.
Liam still didn\'t know that Amara was a reincarnated battle god; naturally, he also didn\'t know about Elysienne\'s true identity.
It seems that these two women were quite tacit and hid everything from Liam.
Maximus also didn\'t bother to expose them, letting them play on their own.
Max also officially married Ella, taking her hand and having a grand marriage.
Reaching tier 7, even without his father, Max broke through the territory of the Celestine family and asked for marriage.
Ella\'s family was also not that stubborn and agreed to the marriage.
After all, Max\'s exploits over the years were almost as legendary as Maximus, the one they were optimistic about.
Furthermore, they also learned about Maximus\'s exploits in the Abyss Realm.
With such a divine son-in-law, how could they still refuse?
Unfortunately, despite formally marrying Ella, they still had no idea of producing a seedling.
Max and Ella were simply busy with themselves, and they had no intention of adding a child to disturb them.
There was also Neo, who was secretly a romantic bastard.
After secretly proposing to the Kingsley family for Aria\'s hand, Neo set up one of the biggest proposals in history.
Taking over the entire Kingsley Domain, Neo collaborated with Aria\'s family and took money from his younger brother, Lux.
After ten years of preparation, a few days of romantic play ensued, just for Neo to propose in the end.
For this, Maximus could only shake his head, considering it a waste of precious years.
Those ten years could have been used for more useful things, like training, making money, or even having a child or two.
Unfortunately, his wives didn\'t agree with him and even praised Neo for his thoughtfulness and effort.
"How is it? Have you prepared everything?" Maximus asked.
"We may not come back here in hundreds of years, so make sure you don\'t forget anything,"
"We have already prepared everything, Dad/Husband," they said.
For his wives, there was not much preparation, as they had no entanglements in the Etherium realm besides their husband.
For his children, besides Lux, they only had a few minor engagements that they easily settled.
As for the Aetherium Pavilion, managed by Lux, they were being taken care of by his subordinates.
Now with everything ready, they were prepared to go to the Abyss Realm with Maximus.
"Since everything is ready, then just do as planned," Maximus said with a smile.
Taking Skye in his arms, he gathered his energy and began to teleport to the Abyss Realm.
"I will meet you on the other side..."
