Chapter 484: The New Era(2)

Soon, time passed, and the matter of the Chaotic Continent continued to unfold.

As more and more bold Star Lords ventured into the continent out of curiosity, news began to spread throughout the entire Etherium Realm, sending the world into an uproar.

Elixirs growing like grass and unique metals were as common as rocks.

The Chaotic Continent was a paradise, even compared to the capitals of the four continents.

Although no Tier 8 or above resources existed, the surface resources alone were more than enough.

Soon, the Apex sovereigns began arriving in droves.

Teleporting nonstop for months, they reached the edge of the chaotic continent.

However, as they entered, a spiritual barrier tried to repel them out.

Looking at the solid barrier, they didn't dare to continue; such work could only be done by the Dimensional Master, barring them from entry.

Sighing at the missed chance, they return to their station and continue to work or train.

After thousands of years under the rule of Maximus, they had grown numb to changes.

After all, the Etherium Realm had already ascended to a Tier 10 dimension—what more could surprise them?

Instead of being shocked and questioning everything, they must adapt and strive to reach the higher realms.

Having access to the Virtual Realm, they understood that the Etherium Realm was just a small world.

Tier 9 was merely the beginning of their journey; they had only just set foot on the path, and nothing could distract them now.

Yet, unwilling to let this opportunity slip away, they hurriedly sent their subordinates to establish a foothold on the continent.

Despite their wealth, such a resource-rich place was still attractive to them.

Soon, with the collective strength of the Apex sovereigns and Rakasha, they opened a continental teleportation array just outside the Chaotic Continent.

The Chaotic Sea was vast, especially after the Etherium Realm advanced to a Tier 10 Dimension.

Even a Tier 9 Apex Sovereign could no longer teleport anywhere in the world as they used to.

The dimensional atmosphere had become denser, making it harder to open teleportation portals.

Without the help of Rakasha, one of the supreme leaders of the Etherium Realm, it might have taken them hundreds of years to build the continental teleportation array.

Rakasha was the strongest Apex Sovereign besides Fealan and the other.

He was a prodigy holding the fort of the abyss, preventing internal fight and invasion of the abyss.

Recently, with the abundant resources provided by the Etherium Alliance, the Void Core simulating a Tier 10 dimensional environment, and the Etherium Realm advancing to a higher dimension, Rakasha shattered the barrier and reached Tier 10 realm.

Upon reaching the peak of the world, Liam appointed him as one of the supreme leaders of the Etherium Alliance, after consulting with his father.

Liam, managing the Etherium Alliance, was at his wit's end, relying only on a few Tier 9 Apex Sovereigns for assistance.

Managing the Etherium Realm was not just about internal factors but also external ones.

The Etherium Realm was also tied to the Virtual World, trading and exchanging with other dimensions.

A dimension couldn't grow in isolation; it had to interact with others.

Although Maximus could afford to raise the Etherium Realm, it was better for it to be self-sufficient.

By exporting their products to weaker dimensions, Liam had to negotiate terms with other dimensions.

If anyone dared to betray them, all the Star Lords would besiege the traitor, no matter the cost.

Besides their Dimensional Master, the origin of their profession, the Star Lords feared nothing—especially if there was profit to be made.

With the investments they received from sponsors, they rapidly strengthened and expanded their Star Islands as various forces began their exploration of the Chaotic Continent.

...

Meanwhile, at the center of the Chaotic Continent, the Eryndor Empire was also in a state of emergency.

As soon as the light barrier surrounding the continent disappeared, the top powers of the race began investigating.

One of them, Latin, a fifth-generation Eryndor under the line of Ugur, possessed a mutated eye that allowed him to see far beyond his realm.

Through his eyes, as soon as the barrier vanished, he saw the sea fill his vision, along with a vague shadow of the four continents.

Although they were smaller than the Chaotic Continent, it was still a delight to discover another civilization to join them in the worship of their god.

However, as time passed, and various individuals reached the continent's edges, Latin grew daunted by their power, abilities, and advanced technology—beyond the Eryndor Race's comprehension.

Sensing unprecedented danger, Latin reported to Ugur, the supreme emperor of the Eryndor Race.

Ugur wasn't surprised and began mobilizing his people.

Their first priority was to develop transportation systems, from mana-based ships to teleportation arrays.

The Eryndor Race still lacked the capability to traverse the entire Chaotic Continent.

Although Latin could see it, traveling with their fastest ships would take a million years to reach the end.

The Chaotic Continent was a fourth of the Etherium Realm in size, including the Chaotic Ocean.

Navigating such a vast land as a Tier 7 individual was nothing short of a dream.

The only hope was to harness the power of nature and mana to create faster ships and longer-distance teleportation arrays.

Unfortunately, breakthroughs wouldn't happen overnight.

Looking out in worry, Ugur gazed into the distance with a sigh.

...

In Shadowcrest Castle, Maximus, observing the developments on the Chaotic Continent, nodded with satisfaction.

A new era had already begun, and now Maximus only needed to wait for heroes to emerge and miracles to unfold.

Watching as Etheria left again, Maximus sighed.

Alone in the room, he began contemplating his own progress.

Everything was moving steadily along the path he had set, but the only thing stalling was his realm.

Maximus needed to create the Tier 10 Origin Manual as soon as possible.

He couldn't remain in the Tier 9 realm much longer.

With his wives and children advancing and the Etherium Realm entering a new era, Maximus couldn't afford to lag behind.

"How about I use the causality of power to deduce?" Maximus thought boldly.

The time points in his system were created from the impure causality of enlightenment and time.

Maximus wondered what the difference would be if he directly used the causality of power.

"Let's try..."
