Chapter 477: Tier 10 Etherium Realm

"I feel powerful..." Etheria muttered, unsure of what to say.

As a dimensional origin restricted by rules, without the Etherium Realm, her power was insignificant.

She couldn't even harm the people in her world.

Using the manual given by her dimensional master, Etheria felt alive as the restrictions of the dimensional rules began to weaken.

Etheria realized she could now leave her world and travel to others.

Seeing Etheria in a daze, marveling at her newfound power, Maximus used his dimensional authority to observe her transformation.

His dimensional authority allowed him to have the same ability as Etheria, feeling her changes, Maximus couldn't help but smile.

First, Etheria was no longer just a dimensional will—an entity that merely managed worlds with little to no consciousness, worse than even wandering spirits and souls.

This was why Maximus had been somewhat uninterested in her; she had been like a robot, following orders and bound by rules.

Now, with her will and consciousness starting to form, Maximus couldn't help but feel pleased.

The second change was her power.

As a tier 9 dimensional will, even without the Etherium Realm's enhancements, Etheria now possessed an immense power of tens of millions of magnitudes.

If she gathered the full power of the Etherium Realm, perhaps she could even crush a tier 11 powerhouse instead of merely repelling one.

Moreover, Etheria's control over the Etherium Realm had improved.

Not only could she independently use the world's power to create rare materials, treasure, small worlds, etc., she could also summon an entire army on her own.

At the Etherium Realm's current standing, Etheria could create pseudo-tier 9 powerhouses at the cost of just a few origin fragments.

With such power, Etheria was practically a military breeding ground.

As for treasure, beside ultimate treasures that require all laws and even conceptual power, she could copy all tier 0-9 treasure residing in her world.

Thinking about it, Etheria was beginning to resemble the Abyss Will, the strongest tier 11 entity in the Aeon Plane.

Despite the Abyss Will not being a tier 12 overlord, it could still lead its dimension to become one of the three main enemies of the Dimensional Alliance.

With infinite dimensional expansion, infinite soldier creation, devouring power, and an unkillable nature, the Abyss Will was unrivaled.

If not for the presence of three overlords in the Dimensional Alliance, the Abyss Will might have already ruled the Aeon Plane, even as only a tier 11 dimensional will.

Dimensional wills were considered a scourge within the plane—anomalies that shouldn't exist.

With the power to cause destruction and imbalance, the Aeon Plane heavily suppressed the appearance and development of dimensional wills, chaining them with rules and restrictions, locking away their consciousness, and making them puppets to the plane's whims.

The Abyss Will was the first to break free from these restrictions, developing its consciousness and raising its world single-handedly until it reached the top.

Unfortunately, the rules of the Aeon Plane were still unbreakable.

No matter how powerful or influential the Abyss Will became, it remained locked at the tier 11 level.

Yet, seeing Etheria, Maximus's eyes twinkled with curiosity, wondering just how high she could rise.

Every time a world-altering phenomenon happened within the Etherium Realm, it was always for the benefit of the world.

Noticing this change, much grander than anything they had seen before, with mana density shooting through the roof, the people couldn't help but turn their eyes to the sky, watching the world evolve to a higher dimension.

A year later, as catastrophes continued to play out across the world, the mana density and law energy of the Etherium Realm reached its peak.

With a loud explosion, inaudible to the people, the Etherium Realm began expanding like a balloon being filled with air.

At the center of the Etherium Realm, the Abyssal Lands, purified by Etheria, began merging with the lands won in the dimensional war.

The core of the abyss that couldn't be purified was preserved by Etheria and placed at the bottom of the newly emerged land, intending to make it into a dungeon as per her master's instructions.

The new land, as large as a fourth of the Etherium Realm, caused the seas to surge and fill the blank areas of the slowly expanding Etherium Realm.

As this happened, the residual chaotic energy present around the world surged, creating new materials, species, monsters, plants, and more.

Despite the massive changes, the four massive continents remained steady, like spectators watching the world blaze and evolve.

However, amidst their calm, the Star Lords scattered across the seas were having a hard time.

Towering waves and surging currents tossed their islands like balls at the mercy of the world's whims.

Fortunately, the originator of their profession, the dimensional master of the Etherium Realm, didn't let them die.

Activating a mighty barrier, they were able to swirl through the sea without encountering any damage.

In the Shadowcrest Castle, Maximus and his wives watched the transformation of the world.

Etheria was already at the core of the Etherium Realm, manipulating the land, reconstructing the world as it evolved.

Just as they marveled at the world's changes, Maximus noticed beings being born on the new continent.

"The innate creatures of the Etherium Realm?" Maximus thought.

Innate creatures were those born at the creation or the beginning of a world.

Unfortunately, since the Etherium Realm was an artificial dimension, it had never given birth to a new innate creature before.

Advancing to a tier-10 dimension, the Etherium Realm had finally fixed this shortcoming and successfully birthed its own innate beings.

Sensing the origin of these innate creatures, a flicker of interest appeared in his eyes.

"A creature of magic, faith, will, wildness, and blood?"

The magic of the Arcane Continent, the faith of the Divine Continent, the will of the Astral Continent, the wildness of the Beast Continent, and even the noble blood of the fallen gods from the Blood Ragnarok Realm were concentrated in one body.

"Did Etheria succeed?!" Maximus thought excitedly.

This was the ultimate creature he had hoped for—intelligent, loyal, have an iron will, have incredible fighting instinct, and potential that could be passed down and improve from generation after generation.

He hoped for a perfect being that would elevate the Etherium Realm and keep up with his ambitions.

"The Eryndor race, the legacy, heroes, and protectors of the Etherium Realm... How fitting..."
