Controlling his system, Maximus tried to use the power of causality points to comprehend knowledge.

As a surge of knowledge began to flood his mind, Maximus couldn’t help but groan in comfort, as if his mind was undergoing a baptism.

“Huh~”

Breathing in, Maximus slowly opened his eyes.

If comprehending knowledge with impure causality of power was like squeezing and hammering knowledge into his mind, then using pure causality of power was like being served a fine dining experience.

Except for the slight ‘fullness’ he felt, using pure causality of power to comprehend knowledge was a heavenly experience.

“Unfortunately, I’m too weak and too poor…”

The fullness he felt was the saturation caused by the causality of power.

He was only at the tier 9 realm, and ingesting a strand of causality of power was a slight burden.

Since he used it to comprehend knowledge instead of cultivating, Maximus calculated that he could only consume about thirty thousand strands of causality of power every year.

As for his lack of wealth, Maximus only had over 30 million causality points in the system.

Over 20 million of those were from shamelessly leeching off Iris.

The other 10 million was the converted amalgamation of will produced by the Etherium Realm over thousands of years.

Fortunately, with the proliferation of the population and the emergence of the Eryndor race, Maximus could now collect about ten thousand causality points worth of amalgamation of will annually.

After estimating how many strands of causality of power he could collect and absorb, Maximus began to assess the efficiency.

Based on the knowledge he comprehended, using pure causality of power was truly frightening.

If time points were like an elementary teacher, then using causality points was like having an academician as a personal tutor.

The efficiency at which it helped him understand knowledge was phenomenal.

By his estimate, he would only need a little over a thousand years to deduce the tier 10 origin manual, instead of the previous tens of thousands of years.

However, the cost was also unforgiving. If his calculations were correct, he needed about 50 million strands of causality of power to fully deduce the tier 10 origin manual.

“I’m too poor…”

Holding back the idea of returning to the Immortal Palace Realm, Maximus began creating the tier 10 origin manual.

While Maximus was in seclusion, he was alerted by waves of energy approaching his secluded room.

“Lilith?” Maximus thought, feeling Lilith’s aura of advancement.

Feeling the massive energy Lilith required, he immediately used mountains of origin fragments from his storage to provide the support she needed.

Soon, after a few years, Lilith successfully advanced.

“Brother Maximus~” Lilith jumped into his arms happily.

“I didn’t expect you to be the first to advance, even surpassing Skye,” Maximus said, admiring her progress.

Skye and Lilith had gone into seclusion at the same time.

With more experience and having lived more reincarnations, he thought Skye would be the first to advance between the two.

“It’s thanks to Brother Maximus for training me regularly~”

“Fool, it’s because of your talent. Come, let’s wait for the others to come out…”

Soon after, Skye also began to advance.

Taking out millions of origin fragments to assist Skye, she successfully advanced.

“Congratulations~”

“Husband, I shall protect you from now on,” Skye teased.

“Uh, I’ll advance soon; just wait,” Maximus murmured helplessly.

His wives were advancing one after another, even his children, grandchildren, and in-laws were preparing to advance to the tier 10 realm.

He, on the other hand, was still at the accumulation stage, but thinking about the efficiency of the causality of power, he knew the creation of the tier 10 origin manual would be soon.

Waiting for his wives to advance, Maximus slowed down his work.

Soon, every few years, one of his wives would advance to the next tier.

With his protection in place, they advanced smoothly without any problems.

Watching his wives grow more beautiful and powerful, Maximus couldn’t help but feel excited.

His desire to conquer seemed to awaken as he looked at them with affection.

Without Maximus voicing his thoughts, his wives already knew what to do as they vented hundreds of years of affection.

Playing to their hearts’ content, they began celebrating this monumental event, growing ever closer to the peak of the world.

Reaching tier 10, they were no longer weaklings without a voice in the Aeon plane.

Entering a new realm, they inched closer to the top of the pyramid of power.

Reminiscing about their journey from mere mortals to such transcendent strength, they couldn’t help but be amazed at what they had achieved.

Looking at their husband, who was the cause of it all, their ever-flowing love sublimated as they gazed at him affectionately.

After another round of fun, Maximus finally had enough of the debauchery.

Because of the little goblins distracting him, he hadn’t made progress on the origin manual in a few decades.

“Can’t play anymore?~” They teased.

“No, we still have a lot to do! Occasional pleasure and fun are enough,” Maximus said helplessly.

“Come on, just one more round, we’ll be obedient~” They continued.

“All right, all right, but this is the last time!”

After a few more years of indulgence, they began to work seriously.

While Maximus worked on the tier 10 origin manual, his wives banded together to deduce the corresponding tier 10 liquid solution.

The importance of the liquid solution was undeniable.

Not only could it hasten their cultivation, but it could also save them a lot of strands of causality.

Using the liquid solution was equivalent to having a booster while others walked or crawled.

The clearest example of this was his children, who were still in the tier 9 realm, the same as him.

Since he had limited liquid solution, he hadn’t given any to his children.

They each had their own blessings and corresponding sects.

Although he could help them from time to time, they needed to be self-sufficient.

Enjoying the liquid solution alone, his wives left their children in the dust.

With each having their own tasks, time began to pass rapidly.

A month, a year, a hundred years.

A few hundred years passed, and Maximus steadily reached the peak of the tier 9 realm.

Looking at his panel, a smile appeared on his face.

Family and Power System:

Host: Maximus Shadowcrest

Power: Tier 9 (100%)

Physique: Dimensional Source (Origin Grade: 0

/Unknown) (Rank 11: 0

/100…)

Magnitude of Power: 99.9 Billion

Family: …

Time Points: …

Potential Points: …

Causality Points: 27,520,7124

“99.9 billion magnitude of power?”

The bearing power of the essence of law was only a hundred million.

To reach almost a hundred billion, the ability of the origin manual to break limits was truly abnormal.

Such concentrated power had already caused his essence of law to mutate, changing in both color and substance.

Each strand of his essence of power was like a work of art, crystallized and condensed under enormous pressure.

If, previously, he couldn’t harm a tier 11 powerhouse even with trillions of magnitude of power from the origin explosion.

Now, with mutated essence of law coupled with the origin explosion, Maximus might be able to kill a weak tier 11 powerhouse in a single shot.

“Too strong!”

From power to comprehension of each essence of law, to even absorbing all 161,803 tier 9 ultimate treasures, Maximus had reached the limit of the tier 9 realm and was just a step away from advancing.

“Only the tier 10 origin manual is missing!”

After a brief celebration, Maximus continued deducing the tier 10 origin manual.

Aside from communicating with his wives, Maximus shut himself off from the outside world.

From the Dimensional War to the New Era created by the Chaotic Continent and the Eryndor race, Maximus set it all aside.

Feeling his overwhelming power that was about to erupt, he needed to quickly create the next chapter of origin.

In the passing years, Maximus didn’t forget to visit Iris from time to time.

Disregarding his pride, Maximus happily flirted with Iris while collecting strands of causality in the passing.

The creation of the tier 10 origin manual alone cost 50 million strands of causality.

Maximus also had to prepare for his advancement to the tier 10 realm.

With his overly mutated essence of power, Maximus was sure that a few origin fragments wouldn’t be enough to satisfy him.

Without sufficient causality of power, he might dry up before reaching the tier 10 realm.

Iris was also accommodating, taking on all his requests without complaint just to keep him by her side.

Even the tier 9 ultimate treasures, which Maximus had been troubled by, were easily given by Iris without question.

Such a gentle and generous woman nearly caused Maximus to fall for her.

Fortunately, he still had a bit of sanity, knowing Iris was only attracted to his physique, not emotionally.

Over the years, Maximus also managed to deduce the uniqueness of his ultimate physique.

Considering Iris’s power and status, Maximus didn’t believe he could attract her simply through his appearance and talent.

He would rather believe that the Iris before him was fake than think she was genuinely attracted to him emotionally.

Knowing they had a mutual need for each other, Maximus no longer held back and absorbed causality of power without shame.

With everything progressing steadily, time continued to pass by…
