Chapter 474: Perfect Tier 9 Origin Manual
After hundreds of years and countless epoch of simulations and deductions in his mind, he finally created the complete Tier 9 chapter of origin.
"I didn\'t expect I would create it this fast."
His initial estimate was that it would take thousands or even tens of thousands of years to complete the complete Tier 9 chapter of origin.
However, thanks to the foundational manual of the top sect and alliance, it only took him a mere 300 years.
After Lilith successfully decoded the nine foundational manuals, Maximus immediately started learning and mastering them.
Maximus didn\'t waste time mastering each and every essence of law, and went straight to copying the complete tested formula.
After mastering each Tier 9 chapter of the foundational manual, Maximus began to pry away each essence of law from the nine foundational manuals and merge them into his original manual.
Unsure about what was what because of not studying each essence of law, he used his omniscient treasure, the seal of truth, to deduce if each word he added or removed was right.
This process took him billions of epochs of deduction.
Just thinking of all the simulations he went through gave him a headache.
However, feeling the condensed power he now had, everything was worth it.
His control over each essence of law increased as if it were another part of his body.
What was impossible in the past was now possible.
He could also interchange all the types of law he absorbed into the one he needed.
Even if only the fire law existed in the world, Maximus could subdivide and convert it into all the other 161,802 essences of law.
He also felt his origin become more condensed, meaning he could amplify his origin explosion to a higher degree without dying.
Opening his panel, he looked through the progress he had made.
[Family and Power System:
Host: Maximus Shadowcrest
Power: Tier 9 (3.334%)
Physique: Dimensional Source (Origin Grade: 0/Unknown) (Rank 11: 0/100...)
Magnitude of Power: 5 Billion
Family: ...
Time Points: ...
Potential Points: ...
Causality Points: 3,252,7124]
"5 billion? There\'s almost no change." Maximus frowned, seeing that he was still in the billions.
From over 4 billion to 5 billion magnitude of power, there was almost no change.
"This must be because my realm is empty..." Maximus concluded.
He was only at over 3% progress, so the change from the Tier 9 origin manual didn\'t amount to much.
Maximus could only be thankful that his realm didn\'t regress.
Formulating questions, he began to deduce how many causality points he needed to advance using the Seal of Truth.
"Over ten million causality points to advance every percentage?!" Maximus muttered in shock.
Although the complete origin manual gave him a massive boost of control and power, it also gave him a headache.
In the past, when he trained in the Immortal Palace realm, he only needed over a million strands of causality of power to advance each percentage.
Needing ten times as much energy, Maximus couldn\'t help but sigh.
Diluting his happiness from completing the Tier 9 manual, he used his dimensional authority to review what happened in the past hundred years.
"Three waves of war?"
Instead of one wave every ten years, the Void Battlefield now absorbed 1% of Etherium Realm\'s landmass every hundred years.
"This is also good..."
Maximus couldn\'t take a wave of war every ten years; by then, it would only take a few hundred years before the war ended.
Although it was faster, the casualties would also be much higher.
Now, at a slower pace, the people of Etherium Realm could learn and prepare more from the dimensional war.
Seeing the two massive landmasses scattered in the chaotic sea, Maximus couldn\'t help but smile.
"We won the first two waves of the second phase of the dimensional war? It seems they\'re doing fine without me."
If this continued, it would only take 5,000 years before they could swallow 50% of the land in the Blood Ragnarok Realm and form a Void Gate to officially invade them.
Investigating further, he read the stored data in the Etherium Alliance database.
"So it\'s these three and Wanderer," Maximus nodded, understanding the cause of their consecutive victories.
Advancing to the Tier 10 realm, Fealan, Alabaster, and Readius became stronger, able to fight head-to-head with the Ragnarok.
With more clones, even with just the three of them, they could fight head-to-head with the top powers of the Blood Ragnarok Realm.
After reaching a stalemate, Wanderer came onto the scene.
With the frantic production of the mechanical swarm, they began to massacre the enemy on a wide scale without fearing any casualties.
Wanderer didn\'t need to control each mechanical swarm.
Giving control to the weaker individuals of the Etherium Realm, they demolished the Blood Ragnarok Realm.
However, feeling the origin fragments he stored in the core of Etherium Realm, his expression darkened.
From ten billion origin fragments, only hundreds of millions were left.
"Are these people insane? Wasting over ten billion origin fragments in just 300 years?!"
Maximus was even reluctant to spend a few billion origin coins himself, yet these people wasted 10 billion in just the blink of an eye.
"So this is why they won!" Maximus muttered, gritting his teeth.
Throwing their lives away without fear, how could they not win?!
"No, this can\'t continue. I can\'t waste more money!"
Instead of spending billions of origin coins to win the war, it was better to buy a few more dimensional treasures or some dimensional resources.
Thinking of this, he immediately revised the conditions for individuals who died in the Void Battlefield to be resurrected.
Instead of just resurrecting anyone, Maximus set that each person must first have a minimum contribution on the battlefield.
As for the rest, they would be stored in a special environment, waiting for others to redeem and pay for their resurrection or for when Maximus was stronger.
After he reached Tier 10 or his physique reached Tier 12, he could resurrect all these people without much cost.
At Tier 10, he would have more control of the origin of law and thus lower the costs of reconstructing the body and spirit of the dead
On the other hand, if his physique reached Tier 12, he could just condense origin fragments how much he wanted.
With unlimited origin energy, origin fragments or origin coins would just be numbers in his hands.
By then, depending on how fast he could condense origin fragments, it would only be a matter of time before he became the richest individual besides the overlords.
Without reaching the tier 12 realm, no matter how powerful one is, they could only harvest origin fragments from dimensions or from special places in the Aeon Plane.
Reaching tier 12 physique is equivalent to an infinite lode of origin fragment appearing in his backyard.
Soon after Maximus completed the change in rules, all the beings in the Etherium Realm felt a message in their minds.
Knowing they would no longer be resurrected unconditionally, they began to mourn as if it were the end of the world.
Fortunately, there was still some respite. If they won in the dimensional war, the fallen heroes could still be resurrected.
Feeling renewed vigor, they began to train desperately, preparing for war.
Looking at the positive attitude of the people of Etherium Realm, Maximus couldn\'t help but smile.
"It seems the education in Etherium Realm is not bad."
Having taken care of Etherium Realm, Maximus returned to his wives for a quick vacation.
Although he would take time to bond with his wives, most of the days, he was deducing the perfect tier 9 chapter of origin.
Completing his goal, Maximus decided to indulge for a longer time.
…
A few years later, Maximus returned to seclusion.
This time, instead of deducing the Tier 10 chapter of origin, Maximus wanted to deduce a special solution based on the one the Mechanical Alliance had.
If he only relied on causality of power, it would take billions of strands of causality of power to advance.
Although there is no direct exchange between the two, a strand of causality of power should be worth about a million origin fragments.
Even with a shameless face, Maximus couldn\'t ask Iris for quintillions worth of causality of power.
That was already digging into the foundation of the sect.
Even the overlord forces might not have that much to spare.
His only hope now was to minimize his consumption by making a special formula of his own.
This special liquid was the masterpiece of the Mechanical Alliance, derived from the Alchemy Alliance\'s cultivation potion but much cheaper.
Having Lilith deduced the formula, Maximus\'s admiration for the Mechanical Alliance\'s ingenuity and intelligence grew.
This special liquid solution combines essences from all 161,803 Tier 10 materials containing different types of origin of law, with a strand of causality of power as a primer.
Taking it was equivalent to taking a concentrated origin of law equivalent to a hundred strands of causality of power.
This means that if he created a formula matching the origin manual, he would only need about 10 million strands of causality of power.
Thinking of such a heaven-defying solution, Maximus couldn\'t wait to start his deduction.
