Chapter 397 Hundreds of Octillion Books

After entertaining Otto and his friends, Maximus went back to the Etherium Realm.

Absorbing the Ultimate Treasure was an urgent matter.

Leaving the Nexus Fairy he bought to manage the shop, Maximus didn't have to worry about anything.

Upon his return, Maximus quickly notified his family about the ultimate treasures.

There were tens of thousands of tier 7 and tier 8 Ultimate Treasures, enough for his family and more.

Upon receiving the treasure, they didn't ask further questions and also went into seclusion.

They were aware of the dimensional war that would happen a thousand years later.

Although Maximus was there to protect them, they also wanted to have fighting power of their own.

Leaving Liam to manage the empire, they quickly went into seclusion.

...

Looking at the thousands of Ultimate Treasures in front of him, Maximus smiled.

"I can finally complete my foundation," Maximus sighed.

Without absorbing Ultimate Treasures, although he could still advance, Maximus felt something was missing.

Ultimate Treasures were an integral part of the 'Origin' Manual.

By absorbing the essence of these Ultimate Treasures, Maximus was also absorbing the conceptual power of their plane of existence, forming an 'Origin' of his own.

Mobilizing his domain, he began absorbing the Ultimate Treasures in front of him.

...

A few months later.

Maximus slowly opened his eyes, feeling the changes in his body.

"At least three times stronger," Maximus thought with a smile.

Don't underestimate this enhancement.

Previously, if he could only kill an Abyss God using all his strength at the cost of damaging his 'Origin,' now Maximus could do it at a cost of slight exhaustion.

Feeling the enhancement, Maximus couldn't wait to integrate the other hundreds of thousands of laws present in their plane of existence.

Through inquiries from Otto, Maximus managed to learn exactly how many laws were present in their plane of dimension.

In total, there were precisely 161,803 laws in their plane of existence.

Maximus couldn't imagine how strong would he be after integrating all laws and their corresponding Ultimate Treasures.

Opening the virtual panel of the Virtual Realm.

Maximus quickly browsed through the shop, instructing the Nexus fairy he bought, Joy, to buy all cultivation manuals she could find pertaining to the other elements.

Because he would need to spend the money from his alternate identity, he couldn't use Jixie for the job.

Fortunately, a tier 10 nexus fairy was more than enough to scour the virtual realm for all the public knowledge that can be bought.

Maximus needed these knowledge to fully deduce the elements and law and merge it into the 'Origin' Manual.

In the beginning, to create the 'Origin' Manual, Maximus only dabbled in other techniques to pave the way for the 'Origin' Manual's future expansion.

This alone cost him over one hundred thousand Origin coins, plus the auxiliary materials needed to embed about one hundred thousand common essences of law.

Overall, it took about five hundred thousand Origin coins to upgrade the current World Tree.

Initially, Maximus thought that a hundred Origin coins would be enough.

After all, in the beginning, each trillion epochs, the World Tree could accommodate an essence of law.

He didn't expect that for each ten thousand epochs of law, the cost would increase exponentially.

Especially once it crossed the hundred thousand barrier, even if it was for common essences of law, Maximus had to bleed heavily.

For the rest, Maximus could only wait until he was rich enough.

A hundred thousand laws were enough for him to fumble for a long time.

Furthermore, although the World Tree was missing over sixty thousand laws, it was already equivalent to a psuedo tier 11 Ultimate Treasure.

In terms of auxiliary use, it was a perpetual resource-producing machine.

After spreading high-tier seeds, the space inside the World Tree, equivalent to a tenth of the Etherium Realm, was blooming beautifully.

Although the resources were of no use to him, having a back garden of such tier was enough.

Maximus and his family even moved their main residence inside the World Tree.

With resources that could be found all over the ground like stone and grass and abundant pure mana and laws that were exclusively theirs, the space inside the World Tree was truly a paradise.

Maximus even merged unique small worlds and treasures that he could buy, like the Still World, Timeless World, Healing Spring, Bamboo Grove of Enlightenment, Sword Mountain, the Rains of Dew, God Soil, etc.

The space inside the World Tree was full of treasures, making anyone who stumbled inside a legend when they got out.

This is only the auxiliary function.

As a tier 11 Ultimate Treasure, its power is no joke.

Containing about one hundred thousand essences of law, it is akin to a tiered-down tier 12 mini-dimension.

Its dimensional barrier defense was as strong as a tier 10 dimension.

Unless one can instantly destroy a tier 10 dimension, Maximus would have no problem escaping.

So far, besides those invincible tier 11 individuals who had mastered one hundred percent of the River of Law, Maximus was unkillable.

While inspecting his masterpiece that cost him hundreds of thousands of Origin coins, Joy finished buying the cultivation manuals he wanted.

Looking at the pile of books that he couldn't see the end of, Maximus was stunned.

"This..." Speechless, Maximus felt his head hurt just seeing the books.

"How many books are these?"

"There are over 398 octillion books here, from tier 0 to tier 9."

"In total, it cost me over 170,000 Origin coins," Joy said emotionlessly.

"I—" Maximus couldn't open his mouth, as he nearly collapsed.

398 octillion books? Who is he kidding?

So far, the Dimensional Origin Library only has a few sextillion books for sale.

Just that took him over a few months, urging his consciousness to study all day at a maximum capacity of tens of quadrillion epochs every day.

Imagining the torture that he will go through to finish these books, Maximus could only gulp in despair.
