THE WORLD CONQUEST: GIVING BIRTH TO BECOME A GOD

A hundred years later, after a long vacation, Maximus and his wives were fully rested.

“How is Nero?” Maximus asked, noticing the worried look on Skye’s face.

“That child is stubborn…” Skye shook her head with a sigh.

“Hahaha, just like you.” Maximus laughed, pulling Skye into his arms.

He recalled the first time he saw Skye treating abyssal monsters as training partners. No wonder Nero had such a stubborn temper.

“But he hasn’t even come home…”

“Don’t worry. Each of our children has their blessings. It won’t be long before he returns in splendor.”

“Hmmm…”

After comforting Skye, they teleported to the void, ready to deal with the source of knowledge.

As they passed through a towering structure piercing the void, Maximus couldn’t help but be stunned.

“Crazy! These powerhouses are insane!”

The Tower of Knowledge, which he thought would take hundreds of thousands or even millions of years to complete, was already taking shape before his eyes.

Although only the skeletal framework was in place, seeing it built like in fast forward was astonishing.

“Are these guys maniacs? Do they plan to finish the Tower of Knowledge in one go?”

“They must be too eager to use it.”

Looking at the scene, even his wives were too shocked to speak.

“It’s still too much…”

Surveying the area, Maximus estimated that 99% of the manpower in the Etherium Void Region was concentrated here.

Furthermore, with the creation of direct transmission void portals, tier-9 powerhouses from other dimensions had begun migrating to the Shadow Void Land.

Basically, for every square kilometer of the tower, someone was working.

Although progress was slow, the pace was steadily accelerating.

“It looks like we’ll have to work here first.” Maximus sighed.

Seeing their eagerness, he knew that if he broke his promise, these powerhouses would go crazy.

In the past, to boost morale, Maximus had promised that once the fundamental structure of the Tower of Knowledge was completed, he would open a few experience rooms within it.

While not comparable to his ultimate vision, they would have the same energy intensity as those in the virtual realm.

Now, with the tower nearing completion, he had to integrate the source of knowledge quickly; otherwise, it would be a mere floating tower.

After discussing the plan with his family, they got to work.

Integrating the source of knowledge into the Tower of Knowledge was both easy and difficult.

Easy because they were near the source, allowing Maximus to mobilize it effortlessly.

Difficult because, to supply the tower with origin energy without loss, he had to process it similarly to Ether Devices.

Turning the Tower of Knowledge into a giant pump that absorbed his energy required bending the source of knowledge to an extreme degree.

Realizing it was too slow to work alone, Maximus called on his entire family and the powerhouses of the Order of Maxim, who had forged the path of knowledge.

With all of them shifting their focus to the tower of knowledge, their efforts began attracting attention from forces outside the Etherium Void Region.

As rumors spread about this insane project, those previously unaware of the Shadowcrest Family and the Order of Maxim started to take notice.

Although the Shadowcrest Family and the Order of Maxim had risen to the top in strength and wealth, their reputation had yet to reach every corner of the Aeon Plane.

Unlike other forces, whose names could spread to even the most remote dimensions with a single word, they were still solidifying their status.

However, with this massive construction boom in the Etherium Void Region, more and more people began hearing of the Shadowcrest Family and the Order of Maxim.

Drawn by the immense opportunities and wealth, many migrated to the Shadow Void Land, eager to start anew as glorious migrant workers.

—

Five thousand years later…

After tireless work and under the watchful eyes of countless onlookers, Maximus urged the Source of Knowledge to integrate with the Tower of Knowledge.

Like a dragon coiling around the majestic structure, the Source of Knowledge manifested, causing the void to tremble in response.

As soon as the source of knowledge began merging with the tower, pure origin energy seeped out, spreading waves of benefits to the powerhouses observing from a distance.

Closing their eyes, they felt their bottlenecks loosen. Their cultivation paths rotated and surged, advancing as never before.

Meanwhile, noticing the transformation in the Tower of Knowledge, Maximus couldn’t help but smile.

“Another top-thousand architecture!”

From the Shadowcrest Castle to the Multidimensional Platform, and now the Tower of Knowledge—each had been blessed by the Aeon Plane, ranking among the top thousand architecture in existence.

Maximus could only imagine that once the Multidimensional Platform and the Tower of Knowledge were fully completed, replacing the top ten architectures was a real possibility.

As the massive phenomenon subsided, the Tower of Knowledge revealed its true form.

“Beautiful! So this is the Tower of Knowledge…”

“Even though it’s only a skeleton, its majesty surpasses the one in the Virtual Realm.”

“Hah~ I wonder what it feels like inside…”

Even from a distance, they could sense the overwhelming presence of origin energy, nurturing and enhancing everything around it.

Those who had forged their path of law felt its miraculous influence even more.

Standing before the tower, they sensed their paths of law surging with excitement as if drawn to an irresistible feast.

Turning toward Maximus, they looked eager, waiting for the moment they could step inside.

“It’s not open yet. It’ll take a few years before you can enter.” Maximus shook his head.

If the outside was bare, then the inside was utterly empty.

Aside from the surging energy of the Source of Knowledge, the Tower of Knowledge lacked even the most basic spatial expansion arrays needed to accommodate visitors.

Letting these powerhouses in now would only create chaos.

“Just a little peek?”

“We promise to behave, Lord Maximus!”

“We’ll even pay the full price to enter!”

They didn’t care if the Tower of Knowledge was unfinished.

All they wanted was to bathe in the energy of the Source of Knowledge—just this alone was enough to bring them immense gains.

Turning to Maximus, they shamelessly pleaded.

“It’s not possible. Just wait a few years. Don’t be impatient.”

Not wanting to spoil these powerhouses, Maximus firmly refused.

Fulfilling his promise and coddling them were two different things.

Since he said they could enter in a few years, then it would be exactly that—a few years later.

Waving to his family, he led them inside the tower of knowledge to have the first look.
