The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 573: Choosing an Ultimate Treausre

Among the ultimate treasures, a dozen were what he had seen in the past.

The Tome of Life and Death, Dream Gate, Aeon Chart, Time Source Crystal, Eternal Eye, and more.

Stopping in front of an illusory gate, Maximus couldn't help but sigh.

"I still can't pick you…"

The Plane Gate, the strongest defensive treasure, was one of the top three ultimate treasures in the Aeon Plane.

Looking at its virtual projection, yet unable to do anything, Maximus could only sigh in frustration.

The Plane Gate required one to be a Plane Master before it could be subdued.

Shaking his head, Maximus moved on to look through the other treasures.

After rummaging through over a hundred ultimate treasures, Maximus finally landed on three he liked.

[Immutable Sword: The sharpest blade of the Aeon Plane. Capable of slicing through every fabric of reality down to the essence of causality.]

[Celestial Purity: A divine treasure of purity. It can cleanse all filth, heal any wound, and shield its bearer from all harm.]

[Eternal Book: The tome of boundless knowledge. It grants limitless wisdom and inspiration, empowering the wielder with unparalleled comprehension.]

"Can I pick all three?" Maximus asked shamelessly.

"Just one. Don't be greedy!"

"Tsk!"

Looking at the three ultimate treasures he had selected, Maximus couldn't help but feel torn.

The Immutable Sword alone was enough to make him salivate with greed.

The sharpest sword, capable of cutting through anything and everything.

Although not the strongest, it was the sharpest weapon in existence.

The only limitation was that one needed to land the attack for it to be effective.

This characteristic made the Immutable Sword fall short of being the strongest blade.

However, for Maximus, it was more than enough. Confident in his abilities, he believed he could become invincible with the sword in his hand.

Then there was Celestial Purity. Although an auxiliary treasure with mixed abilities, its potential was undeniable.

Its purifying ability would help him absorb and remain unaffected by the trials stored within his origin.

With this treasure, perhaps he could absorb billions of epochs of experience within just a few epochs.

By then, he could achieve the Tier 12 realm in merely a few million years.

Its abilities to heal and protect would also come in handy in moments of chaos.

Finally, there was the Eternal Book. It was the perfect ultimate treasure for his path, the path of knowledge.

This book granted the bearer limitless enhancements in comprehension and inspiration, scaling according to the amount of knowledge possessed.

This meant the more knowledge he mastered, the greater the amplification it would provide.

As the master of the River of Knowledge, Maximus held all the knowledge in the Aeon Plane at his fingertips.

Taking this treasure would be like gaining wings that would accelerate his advancement in the path of knowledge.

Looking greedily at the treasures, Maximus's thoughts wandered to his family.

With dozens of them, surely they would also be able to claim one of these ultimate treasures!

In that case…

"Don't even think about it. Because you completed the Enhanced Trial, the treasures you're allowed to browse are equivalent to someone finishing the Tier 11 Virtual Trial," the Supreme Law of Virtuality reminded.

The three ultimate treasures Maximus selected were among the top 100 in the Aeon Plane.

Any one of them would spark wars among the Overlord forces. How could such prizes be offered for a mere Tier 10 trial?

Take the Immutable Sword, for instance.

Bearing the title of the sharpest blade and wielding the power to cut through virtually anything—how could anyone else simply be allowed the chance to claim it?

Then there was Celestial Purity. Its purification ability was unrivaled in the Aeon Plane.

Even the corrupted causality that spread across the void could be purified with ease.

Possessing such a treasure meant access to untapped wealth and opportunities on an unimaginable scale.

As for the Eternal Book, its potential was virtually limitless.

If one possessed a vast quantity and quality of knowledge, the book might even enable the deduction of grand paths never seen before.

Treasures of this caliber couldn't possibly be offered in a Tier 10 Virtual Trial.

"I see…" Maximus sighed in disappointment.

Finally, he crossed out the Immutable Sword from his list.

Although it was awe-inspiring, he wasn't particularly a fan of swordplay.

He preferred to rely on his fists or outright crush opponents with his overwhelming power.

Furthermore, without the power of absolute speed to complement the sword's sharpness, it would be nothing more than a decorative weapon in his hands.

"That leaves Celestial Purity… and the Eternal Book,"

Celestial Purity could drastically cut down the time required for him to advance to the Overlord Realm while also granting him abilities to heal and protect in times of chaos.

It could even allow him to tap into the vast reserves of causality scattered throughout the void.

Although Maximus could generate and condense strands of causality himself, obtaining the ready-made ones would save him significant effort.

Then there was the Eternal Book. Its potential was infinite, opening limitless possibilities that even he couldn't fully comprehend.

Although it wouldn't grant him the ability to immediately advance to Tier 12, it held the potential to allow him to glimpse beyond it.

"A million… or a book to create a million?" Maximus mused with a smile.

Closing his eyes, he did what he did best—deducing countless futures to determine which treasure would bring him the greatest benefit.

After spending the remaining hundreds of millions of strands of causality he had accumulated and meditating for several days, he finally chose the Eternal Book.

"The future is never-ending. Instead of choosing a fixed path, why not choose the one that lets me create my own?"

While the former offered a fast and efficient road, the latter promised the ability to pave his own, with limitless possibilities that far surpassed the other.

Faced with a choice between a pre-built path with defined limits and one that would allow him to create a road leading beyond all others, Maximus finally chose the latter.
