Chapter 474: Perfect Tier 9 Origin Manual

Three hundred years later.

"Tier 9 Perfect Foundational Manual complete!" Maximus thought, opening his eyes.

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.

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.
