Chapter 287 Abyss Civilization

nIn his domain, he saw that his family was still in seclusion.

n“Still breaking through…”

nOver a decade ago, after he finished creating the 8th chapter of ‘Origin.’

nHe quickly transferred it to his family, coupled with 50 quintillion crystal merits.

nThis way, they wouldn’t waste time waiting for him.

nAfter he advanced to tier 8, he would return to the Ethereum realm to take care of his empire.

nMaximus didn’t want to leave his family in such a dangerous world, so they needed to advance quickly.

nBy now, it seemed that they were still in the process of fully condensing their domain.

nAlthough they just needed to merge their special physique with their domain.

nIt would not be easy without knowing their special physique inside and out.

nInvestigating further, he quietly read memories of his guild members and the gathered intelligence in the past year.

n“It seems that nothing much happened,” Maximus heaved a sigh of relief.

nBecause he entered seclusion, the shadow hunter outpost stopped at the purgatory layer.

nAlthough Eternal Voyager still continuously looked for resources and abyss source, there was not much danger.

nThere is also his job as an intermediary for the said dimensional merchant.

nBefore he entered seclusion, Maximus had already informed the top guilds and organizations that he would be gone for a while.

nThus, before he entered seclusion, they had already bought what they could.

nAlthough, he lost quintillions with his absence.

nFeeling his power, it was worth it.

n“There is no problem here…”

nSeeing that there was no problem, Maximus got ready to test his newfound power.

n….

nIn the fringe area of the source layer:

nAfter a few days of nonstop teleportation, Maximus reached his place.

n“So this is the source layer…”

nBesides the denser abyss aura, Maximus noticed a hint of architecture suggesting a civilization’s presence.

nIf the beings of the Ethereum realm saw this, they would undoubtedly be in shock.

nThe thoughtless bloodthirsty abyss monster they were fighting relentlessly still had the mind to create a civilization? Google seaʀᴄh Noᴠelꜰre.nt

nIt’s like knowing that a group of animals in the forest build their own city.

nHowever, having already been informed about the abyss civilization, Maximus was not shocked.

nWhat’s weird about a great dimension like an abyss having its civilization?

nEven an ant can have a colony, much less the almighty abyss.

nInside these architectures, Maximus was looking for prey.

nA tier 8 lord abyss monster containing a tier 8 abyss source.

nSince he was testing his power, why not earn resources simultaneously?

nTier 8 abyss monsters, even ordinary ones, are worth over a trillion when converted to system points.

nAfter reaching tier 8, his mana generation multiplied by ten times.

nThe Monarch abyss source fragment, which would usually take him over four months to fill, can now be filled in over ten days.

nPlus, other abyss sources could produce over 300 trillion daily system points.

nMaximus can now accumulate about 12 quadrillion system points monthly.

nSuch an amount should be sufficient, especially considering he could only get a few trillion system points daily just a few years ago.

nHowever, after reaching tier 8, his need for system points increased.

nNow, what he needs to study is tier 9 knowledge.

nSuch a monumental task— even a few hundred more quadrillions points daily are not enough.

nThus, little by little, Maximus still hopes to collect abyss source as much as possible.

n…

nFinally, after roaming for a while, Maximus found an intact camp that seemed like an abyss army camp.

nInside was a group of Elite abyss monsters containing at least a fragment of abyss source, giving them a hint of intelligence.

n“This should be an army camp, Malgron told…” Maximus muttered excitedly.

nAccording to his knowledge, an army camp like this should have a general who at least had an elite-level abyss source.

nThat was over 10 trillion worth of system points.

nHaving found his target, Maximus carefully spread his domain in place, studying the location of their traps.

nBecause Malgron frequently attacked these kinds of army camps.

nThe abyss monsters became smart and set many kinds of traps.

nUnfortunately, it was useless, only stopping Malgron for a few seconds.

nHowever, such a time was enough for them to convey the news to their monarch.

nIf not, Malgron could continue to destroy an army camp near the place, causing further damage.

n“What a tricky place,” Maximus clicked his tongue in amazement.

nIf other apex sovereigns unknowingly landed on these traps, they would either be disabled or die there and then.

nFortunately, Maximus had his almost omnipotent domain.

nWith just a few manipulations, such traps became ineffective without triggering any alarms.

n“Now it’s time to fight,”

nStretching his arms, a palm-shaped energy was formed in his domain, slapping the abyss army camp to pieces.

nBoom!~

nWithout the hidden defensive traps, the abyss army camp was like a fragile piece of paper.

n“Oh?” Maximus muttered in surprise.

nHe looked at the remaining abyss monsters, neither attacking nor running but frantically manipulating the void.

nIt seemed to want to send the news to the abyss monarchs regardless of life and death.

n“You abyss creatures are really loyal…” Maximus smiled, not in a hurry to attack.

n“You! You are not the ‘Vermin’!” The abyss monster muttered in shock.

nWithout hesitation, it immediately conveyed another message to the abyss monarchs.

n“Are you done?” Maximus smiled.

nWanting to test his full strength, a tier 8 abyss monster is certainly not enough.

nLetting this guy deliver the message is just appropriate.

n“How dare you-“

n“Since your usefulness is done, don’t talk too much.” Maximus condensed a ray of energy, shattering the tier 8 abyss monster into dust.

n“Tsk, you’re too tender, wanting to delay me.”

nThe abyss monarch was coming; he didn’t have time for these cannon fodders.

nSucking all the abyss source in place, he smiled at his harvest.

nAlthough he only got an ordinary tier 8 abyss source and a few abyss source fragments, it’s enough.

n“But it seems I’m too strong…”

nThinking of wiping out a tier 8 abyss monster in one strike made him marvel at his current strength.

nAlthough such an attack consumed all the energy in his body, it was still too strong.

nAn apex sovereign would probably have to pay a huge price to one-shot a tier 8 abyss monster like this.

nFor him, it only took a fraction of a second to recover his energy.

n“However, without the unlimited power of law, I can only use mana.” Maximus sighed in helplessness.

nTo have unlimited power of law, he would have to upgrade his physique to tier 10.

nLooking at his panel, he still had a long way to go.

nMaximus Shadowcrest:

nTier 8: 0%

nMana Compatibility: Rank 9 Dimensional Source (0

/1 Sextillion)

nSoul Amplitude: 1 Trillion (0.1%)

nSoul Will: 1 Trillion (0.1%)

nDomain: Origin Domain

nPower of Law: 0%

nA sextillion system points!

nTo have the unlimited power of law, he would need to accumulate system points for epochs.

nThis may be a short time for those apex sovereigns who already lived for epochs.

nBut for him, who is less than a thousand years old, such a long time was vague and looked like a dream.

n…

nWhile he was in deep thought, he suddenly felt an intense energy coming toward him.

n“It’s here…”

nWhoosh!

n“So you are the other bearer of the Ultimate physique,” Drekthar greeted with murderous intent.

n“Huh? Only tier 8?” Drekthar muttered in surprise.

nThey thought that the bearer of the ultimate physique had broken through to tier 9, so they sensed his physique.

nHowever, by the look of it, their guess was wrong.

n‘Could it be the special physique advanced to tier 10?’

n‘No, the intensity was too low…’

n‘Could it be because of advancing to tier 8?’ Drekthar was shocked with his guess.

nIf it was true, then this being was more frightening than he thought.

n“However, you’re only tier 8 now,” Drekthar licked his lips in interest.

n“There is only one?” Maximus frowned, seeing only one of the abyss monarchs was in front of him.

nThe others should be in ambush, which made him alert.

n“I, alone, am enough!” Drekthar bluffed.

nIn reality, the other three were hiding somewhere, watching the battle.

nIt’s just that Maximus’s perception is so short that he didn’t see them.

n“Are you sure?” Maximus muttered and quickly attacked.

nRepeating his old trick, he condensed his energy at one point and attacked the abyss monarch.

n“Hehe, interesting…” Looking at the ray of energy filled with all kinds of elements, he only stretched his hands.

nThump!

nThe dull sound made Maximus frown.

n“What a powerful abyss monarch!”

nlightsnοvεl His attack didn’t even cause a scratch to the abyss monarch, which amazed him.

n“Is this all you’ve got?”

n“Did you get an auxiliary physique or something?” Drekthar muttered in puzzlement.

nInitially, he thought this bearer of the ultimate physique would be more powerful than ‘Vermin’ because he caused a commotion just by advancing to tier 8.

nHowever, looking at the attack that can only be used for massage, he frowned.

n‘Did I guess wrongly?’

nFeeling underestimated, the look in his eyes became serious.

n“It seems that I need to get serious…”

n
