Chapter 373 The Crystallization of Will

Chapter 373 The Crystallization of Will

Fifty Years Later...

In the Imperial Castle, Cultivation Room:

Maximus was undergoing a major breakthrough.

A crystal made of will began to surround his intangible 'Origin'.

The crystal was made of hundreds of quintillions of will attracting and supporting each other, protecting his 'Origin'.

Seeing them form and solidify, Maximus slowly opened his eyes with a smile.

"Finally condensed... The Crystallization of Will."

The benefits brought by the crystallization of will were immense.

It gave him an impervious will; a will that was undefeatable and impenetrable.

Even the Origin of Law could only hardly erode his will.

With the Crystallized Will protecting his 'Origin', unless one had a power stronger than the Origin of Law, Maximus was invincible.

"So Strong..." Maximus muttered, clenching his fist.

From now on, he no longer feared that of an ancient Apex Sovereign.

Although he had no means to harm them, they couldn't harm him either.

"From now on, the Etherium Realm is my domain!" Maximus said with excitement.

Calming down, he reviewed his current situation.

"However now is not the time..."

Controlling the Etherium Realm now didn't bring any benefits, but instead a burden.

Power is only one of the criteria to control something; one also needs wealth, resources, manpower, and time.

Maximus didn't have enough time to play house, conquering the Etherium Realm.

The abyss was about to invade the Etherium Realm.

Although it seemed that they were winning now, as long as it was there, it's a time bomb waiting to explode.

Furthermore, sooner or later, the Etherium realm would begin interacting with other dimensions.

Without absolute power, all that he has now may become a mere reflection of a moon in the water.

Maximus had to hurry and create the ninth chapter of 'Origin' and advance to the peak of the Etherium realm.

"13 sextillion system points..."

In the fifty years, the amalgamation of will he received only grew from 10 sextillion to 13 sextillion.

Even with the growth of population and the ongoing Chaotic Star Sea Era, the growth of the Amalgamation of Will was slow.

Maximus seemed to underestimate how large a number of sextillions are.

Each percentage growth of the Amalgamation of Will was a leap of power that cost countless wealth.

Just to maintain the operation of the empire, cost sextillions of dimensional coins.

To accelerate its growth, Maximus needed to spend over ten sextillions, which is more than what he earned over a year.

The Dimensional Origin library barely earned sextillion dimensional coins.

Coupled with Lux business, Maximus had to add 7-8 septillion dimensional coins to the empire.

Fortunately, money was not a problem for him.

Although he couldn't earn enough, he could convert the Amalgamation of Will to dimensional coins.

With 13 sextillion system points every day, he could have over 4 septillion dimensional coins every year if he wanted.

At first, Maximus thought it was a joke.

He didn't evnlen care about his income in Myriad World Mall, much less in the Etherium Realm.

However, thinking that it would be a loss of face if he didn't do anything, Maximus also fought back.

Maximus first stopped the sale of resources from the Myriad World Mall.

Without the resources, the situation in the abyss became a little precarious.

Seeing this, Fealan became a peacemaker and began to persuade him.

Unfortunately, Maximus was stubborn.

Unless those Apex Sovereigns who sanctioned him apologized, he wouldn't budge.

As the situation in the abyss became more precarious they realized they couldn't afford to fight with Maximus now.

They were still fighting with another dimension, in fighting would only benefit the enemy if it continued.

Coming to their senses, they sincerely apologize to Maximus.

Of course, deep down, they still loathed this rich man.

Temping their people with wealth and land, the only thing they could do was grit their teeth.

Seeing their sincerity, Maximus generously forgave them.

Their sincerity, of course, came in the form of some tier 10 treasures that had come from the void.

These Apex Sovereigns had some good stuff hidden, making him a little interested.

Seeing they still had some hidden treasure, Maximus began offering them all kinds of resources to trade.

Unfortunately, they didn't need anything, and wouldn't budge or sell him anything.

Losing interest, Maximus continued to be lazy.

Without the sanction of the Apex Sovereigns, the Etherium Realm returned to its peaceful appearance.

The only difference was the rampant activity of the Star Lords.

Not satisfied with the surrounding area, Maximus began to improve Star Island.

Instead of limiting their movements around the Curse Continent, the entire chaotic sea became their playing ground.

Although it became more dangerous, the resources also became more abundant and unique.

Soon after a hundred years, Star Lords began to be an integral part of the world, like mages, knights, beasts, and gods.

It was no longer a mere profession but an alternative path.

Creating a new path, the World's Will generously rewarded him with merit.

Unfortunately, Maximus no longer cared about such things.

He had already bought all he could in the merit exchange hall.

More merit no longer had any value besides directly absorbing it.

Besides being an integral part of the world, Star Lord Communities began to form.

From academies to specialized products and training exercises, it was no worse than any other path.

Becoming a Star Lord also became so popular that even the Apex Sovereigns who had sanctioned it in the past eagerly let their descendants join the fray.

The treasures that could be found in the Chaotic Sea were all unique.

There were even some that couldn't be bought in the Myriad World Mall.

With many Star Lords, some resources in the past that couldn't be bought also became more available.

Slowly, the Star Lords occupy the chaotic sea, the uncharted sea of the Etherium Realm.
