The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 588: Incarnation of Evil

At the march of over fifty Masters of the Ocean of Law, the Dimensional Alliance, the Court of Council, and the allies of the Shadowcrest family were quickly alerted.

Marching closer to the Etherium Realm, they looked into the majestic barrier of knowledge as they called for Maximus' name.

"Tsk, bad timing."

It had only been a few months since his last battle.

Despite wielding the Supreme Law of Origin and countless strands of causality, Maximus's core of origin was still damaged.

"Maximus Shadowcrest, don't be a coward and hide inside this turtle shell of knowledge!" a voice boomed.

Hearing this, not only did Maximus frown, but his family, the Order of Maxim, and all the people of the Etherium Realm trembled in fear.

From the sheer pressure the enemy emitted, they knew they were severely outmatched.

"Don't worry; they can't get inside," Maximus reassured them.

Knowing they would come, Maximus had further reinforced the Source of Knowledge.

Although maintaining it cost billions of strands of causality every day, it was far better than facing a direct attack.

Hearing his words, his family calmed down.

If their father said the enemy couldn't attack, then the enemy couldn't touch them even if they were a hundred times stronger.

Soon, seeing no sign of Maximus, the attackers grew impatient and struck the barrier surrounding the Source of Knowledge.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

As the rumbling echoed through the Etherium Realm, the people inside prayed fervently for their Supreme Emperor to defend them successfully.

Finally, after dozens of attacks, the silence that followed left everyone staring at the sky in disbelief.

"N-nothing happened?"

"We're safe! The enemy couldn't pierce the sky!"

"Hahaha, the barrier of knowledge is impenetrable!"

Laughing in joy and disbelief, the people celebrated while the Masters of the Ocean of Law outside stared in shock.

"How is this possible? How can a mere Source of the River of Law withstand our attacks?!"

"It's the power of causality!"

Staring at the dense web of causality that spread over the barrier of knowledge, their expressions darkened.

Hundreds of trillions of strands of causality forming a chain to support a barrier.

How could it not be strong?

"Hmph! This mere trick has its limits," Yumar scoffed.

Still, knowing Maximus was the Origin and could essentially produce unlimited energy, they were slightly discouraged.

"Don't fret. I calculated that the barrier's replenishment rate is lower than the consumption from our attacks," Shenri calculated.

Hearing this, their expressions brightened as they stared past the barrier with greedy anticipation.

Mobilizing their power, they resumed bombarding the barrier, eager to reveal their prize.

Meanwhile, in the Etherium Void Outpost, Maximus was entertaining the Shadowcrest Allies.

As soon as the fifty Masters of the Ocean of Law had marched toward the Etherium Realm, his allies honored their promises, preparing to stop the enemy.

However, knowing they couldn't win the battle and would only delay the inevitable, Maximus quickly stopped their actions and invited them into the Etherium Realm.

"How long will this barrier last?" Malgron asked with interest.

"About 500 years," Maximus replied after calculating his reserves and what he could generate simultaneously.

"Is that enough?" Malgron asked, glancing at Maximus's visibly injured body.

He knew why Maximus hadn't confronted the enemy outright.

In perfect state, his friend was more arrogant than he is.

Even now, facing over fifty Master of Ocean of Law, there is not the least bit of fear in his eyes.

"It's more than enough," Maximus said, smiling with gratitude.

Beside Malgron were two other Masters of the Ocean of Law from the Ashura sect.

The Sterling family had also sent an elder of equal strength, fulfilling their duties as allies.

Otto's father and mother could not come as they were still in seclusion, hoping to advance to the Absolute Realm.

The Fritz family had sent two Masters of the Ocean of Law, honoring their marriage alliance.

The Elfalhn family sent all three Supreme Witches, offering their full support.

Other sects, including the Immortal Palace Sect, had sent one Master of the Ocean of Law to show their support.

Iris was still in seclusion, preparing herself to advance to the Absolute Realm.

Having support from the Immortal Alliance at this time was already a show of sincerity.

Looking at the eleven Masters of the Ocean of Law gathered before him, Maximus felt satisfied.

Entertaining them, he strategically used his reserves of causality to buy time for his core of origin to heal.

Outside, as they continued to see the barrier recover slower than the damage they inflicted, their excitement grew.

But just as they prepared another assault, an overwhelming pressure descended, halting their movements.

The Absolute of Righteousness had arrived.

"We greet the Absolute of Righteousness!" they said in unison, bowing.

"What are you doing here, attacking a helpless dimension?" the Absolute of Righteousness asked coldly.

Initially, the Court of Council had refrained from interfering.

But seeing dozens of Masters of the Ocean of Law gathered and receiving reports they were about to clash with another dozen, they had to step in.

A war of this scale would cause catastrophic damage to the Aeon Plane, which could no longer bear such devastation.

Even the conflict between the Dimensional Alliance and the Devourer Faction had paused to preserve strength.

Yet this group of restless guys wanted to start a war at such a scale?

"Lord of Righteousness, we are here for revenge! We want Maximus Shadowcrest to pay the price!" Yumar declared boldly, showing no fear.

While the seven Absolutes of the Court of Council combined could match an Overlord's might.

Yumar knew their collective forces—including five sects with Absolute founders, plus the Donmarch, Nexus, and Eonfrir families—outnumbered the Court of Council seven to eight.

With their superior numbers and deep foundations, the outcome of such a confrontation would be uncertain.

"What did he do to cause such hatred? Can't you resolve this peacefully?"

"No! That evil being killed nine Masters of the Ocean of Law, severing our foundation and causing immeasurable losses!"

"Nine Masters of the Ocean of Law?!" Discover stories at mvl

Even the Absolute of Righteousness was momentarily shaken.

Such a loss was unprecedented, even in billions of epochs of conflict with the Devourer Faction.

Hearing Maximus's sin, a flicker of doubt crept into the Absolute's righteous heart.

Was this man an incarnation of evil?
