Chapter 166 Absorbing Ultimate Treasures
Looking at the long list of messages, he frowned and had Tintin summarize.
"It's from your family, friends, and subordinates,"
"The Moonlight Empire is just as usual, there is nothing new," Tintin stated.
"Oh, but it seems that there's a girl who's quite fond of your son, Nathan," Tintin gossiped.
"Oh?"
"It's Zoe, with a rank 8 talent."
"Your son seems to be asking if you could bring the girl here to study."
"It's indeed my son," Maximus didn't ask anything and just smiled at Nathan's initiative.
"You should have fixed it earlier."
"I've already done it, host."
"Zoe has already been studying and living here for two weeks," Tintin said proudly.
Although Maximus's token was not connected to the outside world.
A sub-token was still active, in which Tintin could manage the guild, his family, and the Empire.
After all, Maximus's status had significant uses.
It could not stop just because he was in seclusion.
"What else?" Maximus asked about the other messages.
"Your friends just want to know if you're okay."
"There's also Ragnar, who messages you almost every day, inviting you to fight."
"It looks like Ragnar will have to wait a bit longer."
Maximus hadn't even started his training; he had just finished upgrading his talent.
"Continue."
"The Shadow Hunter Guild is running smoothly; there's nothing new."
"Oh, for your family, it looks like your kids, Liam and the others, are getting bullied."
"Bullied? Them?"
Liam and the others were already in grade 3, which is for children aged 10 to 29.
Maybe due to the age gap, they were being bullied.
But he was still puzzled, with the strength and foundation of his children.
There should be no one in the same tier who can defeat them.
"They're just being bullied; I didn't say they lost."
"Although some injuries are inevitable, they also built a famous reputation."
"Oh? What name?"
"There are many,"
"Like 'Devils Incarnate,' 'Sons of the Blood Devil,' 'Handsome Devil,' and 'Goddess Incarnate.'" Tintin began to share gossip she had heard.
Maximus frowned at the use of 'devil' in the names.
"Why does it have 'devil'?"
"It may be because they scared everyone," Tintin suggested.
"During an exercise outside the city of Arcana, at a tier 2 resource point, a group of people ambushed Liam and the others."
"Laim and the other quickly caught into this, and beat them back."
"Those people didn't stand a chance."
"If it weren't for the safety precautions of the instructors, they might have even died." Tintin projected a recording of the scene.
"Hmm, good. They've improved tremendously."
Besides training, they were also using the tailored cultivation technique he had given them, giving them an edge and an overwhelming advantage.
Maximus even saw his son, Max, finally beat Ella.
Unfortunately, it seemed that the little girl got nervous and asked for a tier 9 treasure from her apec sovereign grandpa.
This caused Max to return to being beaten by her.
"Just hold on, son. Wait for Dad to make some money," Maximus sighed.
The weakest Tier 9 treasure costs hundreds of trillions, which is not something he can afford.
By now, his shop in the Myriad World Mall has stabilized.
There is no longer a rush to grab books,
and supply is sufficient.
Maximus can only earn about 100 trillion per month.
Firstly, this is because once those interested have bought it, they don't need any more.
Secondly, it's because the books he sells are only Tier 0 to Tier 5, which are low-tier.
Thirdly, other businesses have caught on to his business model.
Huge shops has bought the copyright of many books with transcendent insight and is selling them.
After all, with almost infinite dimensions, there are more or less people who have reached a transcendent mastery in some technique.
These techniques are just too scattered that it didn't cause much sensation.
However, It seems that his shop has started a trend.
Now, the once inconspicuous books with transcendent insight are like gold mines.
Their copyright fees have skyrocketed causing a bunch of geniuses to start grinding for techniques, spells, and skills.
They hope to reach transcendent mastery and become rich in one go.
After sifting through the messages and seeing that there was nothing particularly important or new.
He began to officially start his training.
"First, absorb these Tier 0 ultimate treasures..." Maximus took out tier 0 ultimate treasures.
These 1118 Tier 0 ultimate treasures cost him a few hundred million.
Usually tier 0 items didn't even cost a gold coin.
However, although they are just Tier 0 materials, they are ultimate in quality.
They embody the essence of the respective element in that tier.
Maximus didn't even know if there were ultimate treasures in the Ethereal Realm.
Soon, he began to absorb these Tier 0 ultimate treasures:
Fire Elemental Lotus...
Water Elemental Lily...
Earth Elemental Core...
...
Three days later,
"Huh~," Maximus exhaled slowly after absorbing the last treasure.
"Fire~," he tried to conjure a Tier 0 spell.
"So powerful?!" Maximus was shocked.
Feeling the intensity of the spell, Maximus was sure it could disintegrate any Tier 3 individual.
A Tier 0 spell defeating a Tier 3 individual was like a dream.
"Continue," Maximus was not satisfied and took out 1118 Tier 1 ultimate treasures.
This time it cost him a few billion.
After absorbing all the ultimate treasures, he conjured a Tier 1 spell.
Maximus felt that the intensity of such a spell surpassed that of ...
A week later,
After absorbing all the ultimate treasures, he conjured a Tier 1 spell.
Maximus felt that the intensity of such a spell surpassed that of Tier 4.
Then he took out 1118 Tier 2 ultimate treasures.
This cost him tens of billions.
...
A month later,
After trying a Tier 2 spell.
Without a doubt, it surpassed the intensity of Tier 5.
"So strong~," Maximus unconsciously muttered.
This was just a Tier 2 spell, and it could already overpower someone at Tier 5.
Eager to start, Maximus took 1118 Tier 3 ultimate treasures.
This cost him a few hundred billion.
...
Two months later,
Feeling his strength, he tried to cast a Tier 3 spell.
"Huh~,"
"Damn!"
Although Maximus was prepared, he still felt palpitations from his spell.
Without any reference, he could only estimate that his spell was comparable to that of Tier 6.
"Who else?!" Maximus muttered arrogantly.
This was just a Tier 3 spell, and he already felt invincible.
"Hahaha, next!"
Maximus excitedly sifted through the Myriad World Mall, looking for 1118 Tier 4 ultimate treasures.
After buying all the ultimate treasures, Maximus looked at his empty wallet.
"So expensive," he frowned.
Tier 4 was already on a different level, costing almost a trillion per Tier 4 ultimate treasure.
If not for his shop's accumulated income of more than a quadrillion.
He might not have been able to buy all these ultimate treasures at once.
"I hope you don't disappoint me."
...
Three months later,
Maximus felt an overwhelming strength after absorbing the last ultimate treasure.
"Huh~"
"So tiring."
Although it was fun to upgrade, Maximus still felt fatigued.
Casting a Tier 4 spell, he felt truly invincible.
Although it might not crush Tier 7 individuals as they had domains.
Maximus was still confident that being hit by his spell was no joke.
Looking at his pitiful few hundred trillion in money, he didn't continue to absorb treasures.
"Time to rest~," Maximus was already tired.
Ultimately, he still didn't begin his training.
He just strengthened his foundation.
Even the world's origin energy remained untouched.
Without checking the accumulated messages, Maximus finally came out of seclusion.
"Huh, is that you, husband?!" Isabelle looked at him in a daze.
They had barely seen their husband after he broke through Tier 5.
Especially in the last half a year, they hadn't heard from him at all.
"Miss me~?"
"Husband!" Isabella jumped into his arms.
"Husband, I miss you~"
"I thought you would still be in seclusion," Isabella said, hugging him tightly.
"How could I forget that you are about to give birth?" Maximus smiled gently, touching her belly.
"Hehe, that's right~"
"Baby, your daddy is here to welcome you into this world," Isabella said sweetly.
"Hmm, just a few more months, baby, Daddy is excited to meet you," Maximus replied.
The baby seemed to respond as Isabelle's stomach moved.
"It seems that the baby is also excited to meet you."
"By the way, where are the others?"
"They are on the terrace," Isabella rolled her eyes.
She thought that she and her husband could have some solo time for a while.
"Then let's go. I also miss the others," Maximus smiled and gave her a kiss.
"It should be," Isabella reconciled.
Anyway, she couldn't do much with her big belly.
Coming to the terrace, he was greeted by his shocked and joyful wives.
"Husband!"
"I missed you~"
"Muah~"
"Ouch! You're holding the thing too tightly," Maximus winced in pain as his wives swamped him.
"Hmmph, what's wrong? Did you get soft after training, husband?"
"How could I?" Maximus held back his smile.
"Really?~"
"Really!" Maximus swore.
"Hehe, then how about you show us how it's done, husband?"
His wives smiled mysteriously as they dragged him into the bedroom.
Isabella, Emma, and Jane were left alone on the terrace.
"Why don't you join in?" Isabella teased, looking at the two.
"Hmph!" Jane didn't reply as she sulked.
Emma, who was about to follow Maximus, noticed Jane.
"What's wrong, Emma? You didn't really like that beast, did you?" Jane asked.
"Hehe, Jane is just jealous~" Isabella put her arm around Emma's shoulder.
"Who wouldn't like my husband?" Isabella teased and looked at them knowingly.
"T-that was just the influence of alcohol!" Jane hurriedly refuted.
Tier 9 wine was too strong that they had been fooled by Maximus.
"Y-yes," Emma also nodded with a blush.
"Hehe, I hope you can still say that in the future~"
