Chapter 367 Recounting Events
Although he had been back to the Etherium realm for over 10 years, his foolish self hadn\'t bothered with his surroundings.
"Tintin," Maximus called.
Tintin was the spirit token given to him when he became a core student at Origin Arcana Institute.
After many modifications, Tintin had already reached the peak tier 9 spirit treasure.
Even so, due to his soaring strength and abilities, Tintin didn\'t have much use.
Fortunately, Maximus was not so cruel as to disregard Tintin.
When he created the Aether Tower, Maximus integrated Tintin into it, making the tower her main body.
Now Tintin was equivalent to a spirit controlling a continental server.
"Hello, host!" Tintin\'s spirit condensed, greeting him with excitement.
"You\'ve become more lively," Maximus praised, patting her head.
"It\'s thanks to Sir Lux; he upgraded my body. Now I can go wherever I want in the Etherium Realm!" Tintin said.
Tintin was now comparable to the main token, having the body of a continental server.
Outside, Tintin was called the Astral Goddess.
As for the spirits of the other three continents, they were called the Arcane Goddess, the Celestial Goddess, and the Primal Goddess.
They, the four goddesses were the rulers of the Ethernet permeating around the Etherium Realm.
It can be said that even the Apex Sovereigns and the World\'s Will were below them in Ethernet.
Fortunately, they were absolutely impartial, only following the orders of their creator.
When it came to the current trends of the world, it could be said that these four Goddesses were omniscient.
After all, all the information in the world passed through them, from the daily notes of a mortal to the discussions of Apex Sovereigns.
Unless it\'s an absolute secret, these four Goddesses knew everything.
After playing with Tintin, Maximus began to ask about the situation while he was away.
"What do you want to know, host?"
"The Abyss? The Etherium realm? Your Empire?"
"Tell me about the abyss first."
"The abyss... well, the abyss was vastly different now."
"In the past, it was a world catastrophe, requiring even the sacrifice of the whole Nexus Continent."
"Now, with the resources from Myriad World Mall, the abyss became our backyard for resources."
As the main assistant of Lux, Tintin also knew about the Myriad World Mall.
After all, to manage his store that sells and exports the whole Etherium realm\'s resources, Lux couldn\'t do it by himself.
With Tintin managing everything, Lux just needed to point the way, and he could sit back and relax.
"We have already captured the Boundary Layer and Middle later"
"The process of capturing the Purgatory Layer was also going smoothly.
"According to our estimate, we only need a few million to an epoch to capture the Abyss."
"As long as nothing extraordinary happens, the abyss is in our bag!" Tintin said excitedly.
"Is that so?" Maximus muttered doubtfully.
He didn\'t expect that the abyss was suppressed to this extent.
Just a few resources can already bring it down to its knees.
However, he knew this was not the end.
Looking at the details directly sent to him by Tintin, he concluded that the Abyss Monarchs were plotting something.
Either the dimensional teleportation array is about to finish accumulating energy, or they found a way to deal with the parasites eroding the Abyss.
Either way, the Abyss was becoming more dangerous in his eyes.
"What about the Etherium realm? Are there any big changes besides the continental servers?"
"No, the Etherium realm is still as it should be."
"Besides the increase in trade and connection, there\'s not much change."
"I see," Maximus nodded in understanding.
After the Etherium Realm had undergone countless epochs, what changes hadn\'t it witnessed?
Furthermore, a thousand years is still too little to change anything.
Even if the Ethernet was available throughout the Etherium Realm, how many people could afford a device that could access it?
Other continents are not as generous as him, directly giving a free device to his citizens.
"What about the Moonlight Empire?"
"The Moonlight Empire can be said to have the biggest change in the Etherium realm."
"First is the population, which reached 100 quintillion, catching up to most populous domains in the Arcane continent."
"Unfortunately, the cost to maintain such a huge population reached a few sextillion dimensional coins every year."
"What about the income? Are the expenses still out of pocket?"
"The income mostly comes from the Myriad World Mall."
"Most of the resources produced by the Moonlight Empire are sold there."
"Unfortunately, it\'s still not enough to sustain the empire."
"Despite the efforts of Excellency Liam, the Moonlight Empire seems to be an endless pit that couldn\'t be filled."
Tintin sighed, remembering countless days and nights Liam had to work to manage the empire.
If not for the ministers and her assistance, Liam may have already collapse by now.
"Oh," Maximus sighed.
A thousand years later, the Moonlight Empire was still in the negative.
Although they could earn income from other ways like the Etherium realm merits and Amalgamation of Will.
It was still embarrassing to hear that the Empire was still operating in deficit.
However, he also understood.
After all, to grow the population to 100 quintillion, massive resources are indispensable.
From hundreds of quadrillions to over a hundred quintillion.
Although it might seem like it\'s only a hundred times, the thought and work put into it was immeasurable.
To make the growth index greatly surpass the lost index, perfect policies, strength, reputation, environment, protection, everything needed to be considered.
No wonder Liam needed to spend a few sextillion every year just to maintain the empire.
"What about becoming the Economic Center of the world? Is that accurate?"
"This was just the boastful imagination of the people of the Moonlight Empire."
"Although the Moonlight Empire indeed receives tens of quintillions of visitors every year, it is by no means the economic center of the world," Tintin said, rolling her eyes.
Economic Center of the World?
It couldn\'t even feed itself? How dare it call itself the economic center of the world?
Furthermore, the market was only artificially boosted with resources bought from the Myriad World Mall.
Without it, the Moonlight Empire was barely comparable to the top domains in the Arcane Continent.
"Hahaha, I see," Maximus chuckled.
It seems that the Moonlight Empire was at peace for so long that its people became a little arrogant.
It looks like they needed a little stimulation.
Planning in his mind, he continued to ask Tintin about what happened to the Shadow Hunter Guild.
"The Shadow Hunter Guild is already one of the top guilds in the world."
"When it comes to wealth ranking, it\'s in the top ten, becoming a veritable plutocratic guild."
"As for strength, the guild has 15 Apex Sovereigns, reaching the top one hundred in terms of strength."
"So many? Did the reborn Apex Sovereigns join the guild?" Maximus asked.
"Yes, Excellency Liam managed to convince them to join the guild,"
"Tsk, I wonder how that brat fooled those powerhouses," Maximus muttered with a smile.
After recounting the events that happened in the past thousand years, Maximus turned his attention to his \'Origin.\'
A few months passed, and his \'Origin\' started to crack again.
The erosion power of the River of Law was too strong.
Even though only a little wisp passed through his \'Origin,\' it still managed to greatly affect him..
Running through his cultivation manual, he began to repair his \'Origin.\'
As he was repairing it, he noticed his \'Origin\' seemed to be more solid.
"Huh? Is the River of Law tempering my \'Origin\'?"
Thinking of this, there was enlightenment in his eyes.
The River of Law was merely too strong for him.
However, as the power that only a tier 11 can possess, how can it not be beneficial?
Just a few wisps already enhance his \'Origin\' to this degree—
what about more?
Maybe his \'Origin\' would mutate and evolve?
Unfortunately, it\'s not something he could try now.
If he is not careful, he may directly die.
This is real death, not something his ultimate cultivation technique can resurrect.
After all, he was only at tier 8 realm.
His \'Origin\' still hadn\'t reached self-cycle, becoming independent to the origin of dimensions.
Maximus concluded he should be able to reach this state at tier 10.
At that time, he would be truly immortal; nothing could kill him.
The world can be destroyed, but not him.
This is already ahead of Skye\'s Ultimate Physique of Immortality.
After all, if the source of the ultimate dimensional physique got destroyed, she would also die.
For him, after reaching tier 10, nothing can bind him anymore.
This is also the horror of ultimate cultivation techniques.
There can be hundreds of thousands of ultimate physiques but less than a thousand ultimate cultivation techniques.
Well, at least that\'s what he thought.
After all, an Ultimate Physique is based on the Origin of Law; with a few combinations, it can even reach millions and billions.
As for Ultimate Cultivation techniques, they\'re unique, artificially created by living beings.
Furthermore, an Ultimate Physique can only guarantee one to reach tier 11.
However, an Ultimate Cultivation technique can have one reach tier 12.
Thinking of his next plan, he continued to reinforce the barrier of his \'Origin.\'
