Chapter 483: The New Era

Soon, a few months passed.

While playing and flirting with Iris, Maximus didn’t forget to absorb strands of causality of power through his system.

Iris didn’t fail to notice this.

At first, she thought Maximus was just training.

However, when she saw him absorb a million strands of causality of power, she was shocked.

“What are you doing? Why do you need so much causality of power?”

Causality of power, like all energy, could be used for cultivation.

However, it was more malleable and easier to absorb.

If a mortal used it for training, they could reach the Tier 9 realm in just a few years.

“Can’t I?” Maximus asked, a little embarrassed by his greediness.

Strands of causality of power weren’t easy to acquire.

Obtaining a million strands out of the blue was like robbing a bank.

“No, I’m just a little shocked. Since you call me sister, how can I be stingy?”

“Thank you, Sister Iris… But how do you have so many strands of causality?” Maximus asked curiously.

As far as he knew, the only way to extract causality of power was by using an ultimate treasure.

However, seeing Iris was neither distressed nor stingy, Maximus thought there might be a more efficient method.

“It’s the River of Law. Once you master it, you can use it to extract causality of power from the Aeon Plane.”

“Depending on your proficiency, you could extract one strand of causality of power from a million origin fragments. As for extracting it directly from the void, only a Tier 12 Overlord could do that.”

“Oh? The River of Law can extract causality of power from origin fragments?” Maximus muttered excitedly.

His two ultimate treasures were a bit useless when it came to extracting causality of power.

The systemized ultimate treasure could only extract causality of power from will-based energies.

The Seal of Truth, on the other hand, was even more useless—it couldn’t extract any causality of power.

Thinking that the River of Law could extract causality of power from origin fragments, he couldn’t help but envision his future.

Unlimited origin source equaled unlimited causality of power.

It seemed Maximus didn’t need to break the limits of his physique to become self-sufficient in causality of power.

“So, this is the reason even the Dimensional Alliance was eager to acquire origin fragments,” Maximus murmured.

He thought, why would a high and mighty Dimensional Alliance ruling half of the Aeon Plane wanted something mundane, like money?

“Origin Coins became the universal currency in the Aeon Plane for a reason. Otherwise, why do you think top sects like ours need so much of it?” Iris explained.

“You said the River of Law could extract one strand of causality of power from a million origin fragments. What about the Ocean of Law?”

A million-to-one ratio was too expensive.

Even though he had hundreds of billions of Origin Coins, that would only be worth a hundred thousand strands of causality of power if converted.

“The efficiency is much better. At my strength, I only need a thousand origin fragments to extract one strand of causality of power.”

“This—” Maximus felt a little envious.

A thousand fragments for one strand of causality of power was incredibly cost-effective.

He now understood why Iris wasn’t too distressed by the millions of strands he absorbed.

For her, a million strands were worth only a billion Origin Coins.

For a top sect like the Immortal Palace Sect, which earned trillions of Origin Coins every year, that was mere pocket change.

“Sister Iris, you need to take care of me from now on~”

“Hahaha, don’t be presumptuous. Although I can extract causality of power without much loss, it’s not easy work. Even if I worked at full concentration for an entire year, I might not extract a billion strands.”

“That’s still a lot.”

“In normal times, I can only extract tens of millions of strands, so if you don’t want to overwork your sister, slow down a little,” Iris muttered, a bit distressed by how quickly Maximus absorbed causality of power.

A million strands of causality of power were usually enough for a sect elder to last hundreds of years.

Seeing Maximus absorb that amount in a few months—who wouldn’t be distressed?

As time continued to pass, Maximus stayed with Iris for a few years.

Receiving a message that his wives had returned to the Etherium Realm, Maximus prepared to say goodbye to Iris.

“When are you coming back?” Iris asked, reluctant to let him go.

Talking and playing with Maximus had calmed her soul.

Interacting with him made Iris smile more than she had in the endless epochs she’d lived through.

The beginning of her life wasn’t easy.

Possessing beauty that surpassed anyone in the Aeon Plane, the suffering and disasters she faced were numerous.

If not for her talent, luck, and perseverance, Iris might not be alive today.

Such suffering had made her indifferent to most things.

But with Maximus stirring her stale emotions, Iris couldn’t help but want to keep him around.

“I still have things to do…”

“Can’t you stay longer?”

“I want to, but my journey is still long. I need to hurry so I can keep up with you,” Maximus sighed.

Although their relationship had grown closer, the difference in their strength was a huge barrier.

It was so vast that Maximus dared not take things too far.

Knowing the other party could kill him over a slight disagreement made him cautious.

If Maximus couldn’t even keep a clear mind, how could he hold such beauty with sincerity?

Etherium Realm, Shadowcrest Castle:

Seeing his wives wake up one by one, Maximus greeted them excitedly.

“We’ve returned, husband!”

“Welcome home~”

Seeing them glowing with power and confidence, Maximus instantly knew their physiques had reached the ultimate level.

“Congratulations ~”

“Hehe, it’s thanks to your training and advice; otherwise, how could we even gone here.”

“Then how about you give me some interest?~”

Wanting to vent his frustrations over the years, Maximus began engaging with them intimately.

“Husband, you’re so naughty. We’ve only been away for a few years—how could you be so wild?”

“I just missed you deeply~”

Enjoying the moment, Maximus was like a god of war, taking on his ‘enemies’ one by one—or even at the same time.

Halfway through, Etheria, who was far away, joined in, with a bit more aggressiveness and a smile.

After indulging for a while, his wives were exhausted.

“We need to advance to the Tier 10 realm. Don’t be so impatient, husband.”

“That’s right. Skye and Lilith are about to advance—we don’t want to be left behind.”

“Oh, then I look forward to your advancement…” Maximus sighed with a bit of reluctance.

“Hmph! Wait for us to return. Don’t go to other women while we’re away,” Erica muttered, feeling Maximus might have other thoughts.

“Don’t worry, I’ll only look at Etheria!” Maximus smiled, wrapping his arm around her shoulders.

“That’s fine~ Take care of our husband while we’re gone, Etheria!”

“I will~”

After seeing his wives off and giving them advice for their promotion, Maximus turned his attention to Etheria.

“How is the Chaotic Continent coming along?”

“It can be opened anytime. I’ve also modified the rules according to your instructions.”

“That’s good.” Maximus nodded in satisfaction.

The Chaotic Continent would become the center of the Etherium Realm in the future, a breeding ground for talents and faith.

With the Eryndor race at the heart of the vortex, Maximus looked forward to the results.

“Should I open it now?”

“Hmm, let’s see the effects, shall we?”

At Etheria’s will, the light barrier surrounding the Chaotic Continent disintegrated.

This phenomenon caused shockwaves throughout the Etherium Realm.

Whether mortal or powerhouse, everyone seemed to hear a voice tempting them to venture to the Chaotic Continent and have their wishes granted.

Whether it was power, wealth, or status—everything could be found there.

However, contrary to the voice they heard, the Eryndor race heard a different call.

An invasion of other races, a mission to spread their beliefs, and a will to protect their homeland.

Looking up at the sky, it seemed a new chapter was about to open in their lives.

A few months later, brave Star Lords near the Chaotic Continent ventured into the unknown land.

“Huh? The energy is so dense?” Marvin, a Tier 7 Star Lord, muttered.

Feeling the energy, he felt bombarded by mana as soon as he landed.

Looking around, he was greeted by rare and expensive resources growing all over the land.

They were like grass and rocks—everywhere.

“I’m rich! I’m rich!” Marvin shouted, laughing loudly at the sky.

Although no Tier 8 resources were found, Tier 1-7 resources were abundant.

It was like stepping into a fairyland, where all his dreams came true.

Eagerly collecting resources until his hands were cramped, he filled his storage, turning the land bare.

Having enough fun, Marvin eagerly returned to his Star Island to tell the good news.

“The New Era was about to come…”
