In his domain, he saw that his family was still in seclusion.
"Still breaking through..."
Over a decade ago, after he finished creating the 8th chapter of 'Origin.'
He quickly transferred it to his family, coupled with 50 quintillion crystal rits.
This way, they wouldn't waste ti waiting for him.
After he advanced to tier 8, he would return to the Ethereum realm to take care of his empire.
Maximus didn't want to leave his family in such a dangerous world, so they needed to advance quickly.
By now, it seed that they were still in the process of fully condensing their domain.
Although they just needed to rge their special physique with their domain.
It would not be easy without knowing their special physique inside and out.
Investigating further, he quietly read mories of his guild mbers and the gathered intelligence in the past year.
"It seems that nothing much happened," Maximus heaved a sigh of relief.
Because he entered seclusion, the shadow hunter outpost stopped at the purgatory layer.
Although Eternal Voyager still continuously looked for resources and abyss source, there was not much danger.
There is also his job as an interdiary for the said dinsional rchant.
Before he entered seclusion, Maximus had already inford the top guilds and organizations that he would be gone for a while.
Thus, before he entered seclusion, they had already bought what they could.
Although, he lost quintillions with his absence.
Feeling his power, it was worth it.
"There is no problem here..."
Seeing that there was no problem, Maximus got ready to test his newfound power.
....
In the fringe area of the source layer:
After a few days of nonstop teleportation, Maximus reached his place.
"So this is the source layer..."
Besides the denser abyss aura, Maximus noticed a hint of architecture suggesting a civilization's presence.
If the beings of the Ethereum realm saw this, they would undoubtedly be in shock.
The thoughtless bloodthirsty abyss monster they were fighting relentlessly still had the mind to create a civilization?
It's like knowing that a group of animals in the forest build their own city.
However, having already been inford about the abyss civilization, Maximus was not shocked.
What's weird about a great dinsion like an abyss having its civilization?
Even an ant can have a colony, much less the almighty abyss.
Inside these architectures, Maximus was looking for prey.
A tier 8 lord abyss monster containing a tier 8 abyss source.
Since he was testing his power, why not earn resources simultaneously?
Tier 8 abyss monsters, even ordinary ones, are worth over a trillion when converted to system points.
After reaching tier 8, his mana generation multiplied by ten tis.
The Monarch abyss source fragnt, which would usually take him over four months to fill, can now be filled in over ten days.
Plus, other abyss sources could produce over 300 trillion daily system points.
Maximus can now accumulate about 12 quadrillion system points monthly.
Such an amount should be sufficient, especially considering he could only get a few trillion system points daily just a few years ago.
However, after reaching tier 8, his need for system points increased.
Now, what he needs to study is tier 9 knowledge.
Such a monuntal task— even a few hundred more quadrillions points daily are not enough.
Thus, little by little, Maximus still hopes to collect abyss source as much as possible.
...
Finally, after roaming for a while, Maximus found an intact camp that seed like an abyss army camp.
Inside was a group of Elite abyss monsters containing at least a fragnt of abyss source, giving them a hint of intelligence.
"This should be an army camp, Malgron told..." Maximus muttered excitedly.
According to his knowledge, an army camp like this should have a general who at least had an elite-level abyss source.
That was over 10 trillion worth of system points.
Having found his target, Maximus carefully spread his domain in place, studying the location of their traps.
Because Malgron frequently attacked these kinds of army camps.
The abyss monsters beca smart and set many kinds of traps.
Unfortunately, it was useless, only stopping Malgron for a few seconds.
However, such a ti was enough for them to convey the news to their monarch.
If not, Malgron could continue to destroy an army camp near the place, causing further damage.
"What a tricky place," Maximus clicked his tongue in amazent.
If other apex sovereigns unknowingly landed on these traps, they would either be disabled or die there and then.
Fortunately, Maximus had his almost omnipotent domain.
With just a few manipulations, such traps beca ineffective without triggering any alarms.
"Now it's ti to fight,"
Stretching his arms, a palm-shaped energy was ford in his domain, slapping the abyss army camp to pieces.
Boom!~
Without the hidden defensive traps, the abyss army camp was like a fragile piece of paper.
"Oh?" Maximus muttered in surprise.
He looked at the remaining abyss monsters, neither attacking nor running but frantically manipulating the void.
It seed to want to send the news to the abyss monarchs regardless of life and death.
"You abyss creatures are really loyal..." Maximus smiled, not in a hurry to attack.
"You! You are not the 'Vermin'!" The abyss monster muttered in shock.
Without hesitation, it imdiately conveyed another ssage to the abyss monarchs.
"Are you done?" Maximus smiled.
Wanting to test his full strength, a tier 8 abyss monster is certainly not enough.
Letting this guy deliver the ssage is just appropriate.
"How dare you-"
"Since your usefulness is done, don't talk too much." Maximus condensed a ray of energy, shattering the tier 8 abyss monster into dust.
"Tsk, you're too tender, wanting to delay ."
The abyss monarch was coming; he didn't have ti for these cannon fodders.
Sucking all the abyss source in place, he smiled at his harvest.
Although he only got an ordinary tier 8 abyss source and a few abyss source fragnts, it's enough.
"But it seems I'm too strong..."
Thinking of wiping out a tier 8 abyss monster in one strike made him marvel at his current strength.
Although such an attack consud all the energy in his body, it was still too strong.
An apex sovereign would probably have to pay a huge price to one-shot a tier 8 abyss monster like this.
For him, it only took a fraction of a second to recover his energy.
"However, without the unlimited power of law, I can only use mana." Maximus sighed in helplessness.
To have unlimited power of law, he would have to upgrade his physique to tier 10.
Looking at his panel, he still had a long way to go.
[Maximus Shadowcrest:
Tier 8: 0%
Mana Compatibility: Rank 9 Dinsional Source (0/1 Sextillion)
Soul Amplitude: 1 Trillion (0.1%)
Soul Will: 1 Trillion (0.1%)
Domain: Origin Domain
Power of Law: 0%]
A sextillion system points!
To have the unlimited power of law, he would need to accumulate system points for epochs.
This may be a short ti for those apex sovereigns who already lived for epochs.
But for him, who is less than a thousand years old, such a long ti was vague and looked like a dream.
...
While he was in deep thought, he suddenly felt an intense energy coming toward him.
"It's here..."
Whoosh!
"So you are the other bearer of the Ultimate physique," Drekthar greeted with murderous intent.
"Huh? Only tier 8?" Drekthar muttered in surprise.
They thought that the bearer of the ultimate physique had broken through to tier 9, so they sensed his physique.
However, by the look of it, their guess was wrong.
'Could it be the special physique advanced to tier 10?'
'No, the intensity was too low...'
'Could it be because of advancing to tier 8?' Drekthar was shocked with his guess.
If it was true, then this being was more frightening than he thought.
"However, you're only tier 8 now," Drekthar licked his lips in interest.
"There is only one?" Maximus frowned, seeing only one of the abyss monarchs was in front of him.
The others should be in ambush, which made him alert.
"I, alone, am enough!" Drekthar bluffed.
In reality, the other three were hiding sowhere, watching the battle.
It's just that Maximus's perception is so short that he didn't see them.
"Are you sure?" Maximus muttered and quickly attacked.
Repeating his old trick, he condensed his energy at one point and attacked the abyss monarch.
"Hehe, interesting..." Looking at the ray of energy filled with all kinds of elents, he only stretched his hands.
Thump!
The dull sound made Maximus frown.
"What a powerful abyss monarch!"
His attack didn't even cause a scratch to the abyss monarch, which amazed him.
"Is this all you've got?"
"Did you get an auxiliary physique or sothing?" Drekthar muttered in puzzlent.
Initially, 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.
However, looking at the attack that can only be used for massage, he frowned.
'Did I guess wrongly?'
Feeling underestimated, the look in his eyes beca serious.
"It seems that I need to get serious..."
