With regards to the seal-sealing especially, it was a major problem that showed how far they had to go. Because if you noticed, Anubesetesh, an Eternal with more than 75 points of Eternal Power had never had to seal himself, whether in reality or in the game!
The why was simple. He had full control of his power having been God-King of his race, fighting in many conflicts and mastering his extreme talent while forging new paths ahead. He had long reached the point of achieving full control of the blessing he had as a miniature protagonist himself, whilst even slowly prying the way open to new paths.
In fact, coming to Boundless and witnessing all this has caused the Tomegamon God-King to have new ideas and endless inspiration, which was why he was not often seen around easily.
But for the Evil Trio, they had the way paved for them, they just needed to take the time to walk it. The problem was that time was intensely long, and even using things like time acceleration were not very helpful for two reasons.
Firstly, there was no pressing threat of doomsday or no overwhelming final boss hiding away to pressure them for strength quickly. In fact, if we are being honest, they were literally the doomsday that others should fear.
It was undoubtedly in the best interest of all beings that these three were cut down post haste and everything about them was culled down to the roots to prevent future troubles.
A pity...
It would never happen.
Because of that, they would rather pass time normally than speed it up because it made no difference to them. If they entered time acceleration it was not like their sense of time would change as their physical bodies would age accordingly while their mental age would also accelerate in tandem.
Draco and Eva had painfully experienced this when they simulated 21 years of life for Shuangtian in a pocket space so that she could wash away her memories of being in constant pain. Those 21 years, they felt every single second of it.
So technically, in this timeline, their physical bodies were actually about 45 years old. Their mental age was even worse, being at around 81 when both timelines were added together.
They may look youthful, but they were actually old monsters!
Secondly, the time acceleration thing messed with the flow of the universe. It was akin to trying to listen to the lyrics of a song while it was on fast-forward. What the fuck were you supposed to hear exactly?

It was far better to listen to it in normal flow. This situation could be applied to using time acceleration to do anything regarding comprehension.
Of course, this was not the same as time variation/dilation. Time variation or - time dilation in this case - was basically when you entered a dimension or universe where its flow of time was naturally faster or slower than your source universe.
A perfect example was the real world and the digital universe of Boundless.
Minus the need to use helmets and pods, the digital universe was the perfect place for training given its inherent combative laws, as well as its 4 times increased time-flow compared to the home universe.
So the Eternal Chaotic Bloodline was a long-term project. No, it was the longest-term project, something that they could only work only slowly until they reached endgame in their journey to the top.
For now though, there were other projects that required immediate attention and required short-term effort for long-term gains. For Draco, this was three things.
Because of that, the playerbase which hovered around 1 billion ten years ago had long reached 5 billion and was still going. Seriously, if it weren't for some regions having poor access to technology as well as the need for people to continue working in reality, the game would be choked with every single man, woman, and child.
With more people coming in, more talents were unearthed. This was even a result of Umbra maintaining its strict recruitment scheme.
For the serf players, Umbra alone gathered 1.5 billion, split between the four ranks there as well!
In fact, 'serf' players had been changed to 'support' players now as the previous name was too reminiscent of the brutal and cutthroat air of the previous timeline. In this timeline, with Umbra taking the lead and basically nurturing the entire world, there was far less hatred and conflict.
Besides, 'serf' players meant that they were being heavily exploited while having no choice but to do this.
But let's be honest, the ones being exploited here was Umbra, for its kindness and resources by these average blokes. And no choice? Brother, even if you tried to kick them away, they would cling to your leg like a dog with snot and tears.
What part of this resembled an exploitative system?
Looking at his members, Draco showed no disdain or discrimination between old and new. He did see the old fella like Panty King, Loli King, Johnny Sins, Kicked Bucket, Wee Cunt, Maple Forest and more.
Nodding to them, Draco faced everyone and made an announcement with a smile.
"Hello, my dear members. These past ten years, I have been away in the Divine Realm forging our path forward with my very sexy and beautiful wives, here look at a picture of them~"
Draco then wasted ten minutes showing pictures of his five beauties in various attires, gushing over how lovely they were. The old members were used to this while the new members were speechless, but they resolutely poured eye drops into their pupils so that they could see clearer.
After all, these were the 5 Supreme Goddesses of the game, with social media accounts with billions of followers and fan clubs that were bigger than the entirety of Reddit.
"And here are my darling children~" Draco then showed off his children, from the stoic and cruel Rosella to the rebellious and rapacious Loki, the violent and malicious Kuro, the arrogant and domineering Lucitian, the coy and venomous Lucitera, and finally the pure and sweet Shiro.
However, the crowd was not very moved because they had already seen the Heavenly Heirs, which was their official name outside of the Morningstar Clan. Rather, there was a strange look in everyone's eyes that was expressed by the fearless Panty King who stepped forward.
"Cough, Boss Draco. Can you show us some pics of the Number One True Goddess of our world?"
Draco froze as pairs of greedy eyes fell upon him, and his expression became increasingly ugly. After all, he might have been busy with his family during the ten-year period, but he was not ignorant of things that occurred in the world.
Especially the rise of the one true goddess who surpassed his 5 beauties, being the only woman in the world with nearly 3 billion followers and hundreds of fan sites filled with porn images of her.
As if to prevent Draco from escaping their demands, Loli King virtually stepped forward and broadcasted an image of the Number One True Goddess wearing a bikini while taking a cute picture.
Gremory!
'WHY DOES EVERYONE WANT TO FUCK MY SISTER?!' Draco roared futilely in his heart.
