The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

"Does that mean the Ethereum realm can traverse other dimensions and collect resources?"

"No, host, the Ethereum realm can barely interfere with other dimensions, let alone collect resources within them."

"Furthermore, you can\'t survive in the void without strength surpassing tier 9."

"But since you can send your soul, why can\'t you transport resources?" Maximus asked.

Although it has nothing to do with him, it\'s better to know more.

Furthermore, with the Abyss Realm fast approaching, he didn\'t know if the Ethereum Realm could survive.

"The unique property of the soul makes it possible to travel through different dimensions."

"But even then, you need to transform the soul into its absolute state to be able to travel."

"If you want to collect resources from other dimensions, unless you have some special treasure surpassing the world, it\'s not possible," Tintin explained.

This got Maximus thinking about his transmigration.

Indeed, he was in an absolute soul state, so he was able to come here.

But a special treasure surpassing the world? Isn\'t that just his system?

"Hmm, that\'s fair enough," Maximus didn\'t dwell on the topic any longer.

"What virtual world do you think I should try first?"

"You should try the Ancient Battlefield."

"Firstly, it can train your battle intelligence."

"Secondly, and most importantly, it can boost your strength without any complications."

"Boost strength? Isn\'t it just a virtual world?" Maximus asked.

"It\'s like the Virtual Celestial Ascent Path when you first came here."

"Although the blessing to the soul will is not comparable to the real thing, it\'s sufficient."

"Speaking of this, how is that possible if it\'s only a virtual world?"

"It\'s because of the amazing rules of this world."

"Like the Celestial Ascent Path,"

"The creator of its virtual world managed to link it to the real thing, so it can have a slight effect of the real thing."

"As for the Ancient Battlefield, being one at the top means that it has something special."

"That is its link to the Ethereum Realm World Origin!" Tintin explained excitedly.

"Ethereum Realm World Origin?!" This time, Maximus was shocked.

Ethereum Realm World Origin means the source of everything: the very mana, every law that regulates the world, every particle of the world.

Without it, there wouldn\'t be an Ethereum Realm.

"How is it possible that they were able to link a virtual world to the world origin?"

"Wouldn\'t it be better to absorb it themselves?" Maximus asked.

"It\'s because the World Origin voluntarily connected to the virtual world."

"As for the cause, there are no definite studies yet."

"It may be because the Abyss Realm is near that it felt treatment."

"Or it might be because it\'s helpful for the Ethereum Realm\'s advancement."

"Anyway, the only thing known is that any created virtual world that is beneficial to the world has the possibility of having the World Origin recognize it."

"Does that mean all the top have the World Origin as their backing?"

"Of course! Duh?" Tintin rolled her eyes.

"The Ethereum Realm 2.0 can have all the materials with perfect rules because of the blessing of the World Origin."

"Otherwise, who in the world has enough time and patience to study all material to perfection"

"After that, you still need to input it into the virtual world piece by piece"

"Even if this task is distributed, and is done, it would still not be perfect," Tintin explained.

"The Ancient Battlefield, on the other hand, the winner receives a reward of pure energy suitable for mages and knights."

"The Abyss Scape also has rewards of pure energy."

"In the World Trade Realm, the World Origin becomes the middleman, mediating all of its transactions like contracts, authenticity, and delivery."

"Would that mean that anything you buy in it will be teleported directly to you?"

"Otherwise? How can it become the biggest trading platform if it didn\'t even have this function?" Tintin rolled her eyes.

It seems that Tintin is becoming more humane but also more annoying.

"Anyway, the World Myriad Trials are only made possible with the World Origin as an anchor point and power source."

"As for the other virtual worlds, the blessing is roughly the same, but it\'s not that strong."

"Hmm, so that\'s it."

"Then let me get to this Ancient Battlefield," Maximus muttered as he tapped through the token.

"Let\'s see how my transcendent mastery in battle intelligence fares against others," Maximus thought.

...

Ancient Battlefield:

[Input Nickname:...]

[Lord Grim] Maximus typed.

Lord Grim was the battle god in his previous world, proficient in all weapons and techniques.

[Please select battle mode:...]

[Group Battle][Single Battle]

"Single battle."

[Loading profile...]

[Lord Grim: Unranked

Battles: 0

Wins: 0

Losses: 0

Ties: 0

Battle Power: Unranked]

[Please test to determine rank and battle power.]

[Confirm/Decline]

"It seems simple," Maximus muttered, clicking confirm.

...

Ancient Battlefield, Battle Trial:

"So, my opponent starts from tier 1," Maximus muttered.

He was also tiered down.

Furthermore, he felt his Soul Amplitude and Soul Will brought down to the tier 1 limit, which is 10.

[Round 1, Fight begins!]

Without waiting for his virtual opponent to get close, Maximus bombarded it with an over-the-limit tier 1 spell.

Boom*

"Basic."

[Round 2, Fight begins!]

Just like the previous one, he was tiered down to 2, with Soul Amplitude and Will limit of 100.

Without any effort, he blasted his virtual opponent into smithereens.

"That\'s it?" Maximus smiled arrogantly.

But suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

[Round three, Fight begins!]

"I\'m doomed."

He just remembered that the tier 3 soul and mana amplitude limit is 1000.

Meanwhile, he only had about 600 soul amplitude and less than 300 soul will.

Slash*

A sword with a different magnitude of speed nearly slashed his head.

If it were not for anticipating the movement of his virtual opponent, he would be gone by now.

"Damn! Let\'s just fight and see where I rank!" Maximus gritted his teeth as he fought.

Of course, he was barely dodging, as once he was hit, he was done for.

Fortunately, it\'s a knight, so there are no large-scale spells, but the speed is insane.

Due to his transcendent mastery towards many battle experiences, his battle intelligence is top-notch.

With this, he was able to barely manipulate his virtual opponent to his bidding.

Step by step, Maximus lured his opponent while placing a conjunction trap array.

It seemed that Maximus was winning, but in reality, he was dancing on the edge of the devil\'s blade.

One wrong move, and he would be finished.

Fortunately, Soul Amplitude didn\'t directly enhance battle power to a horrifying degree.

In battle, Soul Amplitude can multiply spells, skills, and mana recovery.

Soul Will, on the other hand, can multiply senses, brain capacity, and reaction time.

With the difference in their tiers and without a weapon as an advantage, Maximus could only pray that his plan would work.

As the seconds ticked by, the trap that Maximus had set up was finished.

"Chance!"

Maximus conjured a multi-layered conjoint spell and blasted it toward his opponent.

Boom!

Just as he was about to see what was happening, a sword flashed, severing his head.

"What th-" Maximus didn\'t finish speaking as he returned to the interface stage.

...

Ancient Battlefield:

*Cough!*

*Cough!*

"It\'s not a good experience," Maximus coughed in discomfort.

Besides not dying, everything in the virtual world is 100% real.

"You\'re just too weak, host. You only know how to bully the weak," Tintin mocked from the side.

"Tsk, that was some overpowered monster."

"I already did my best; how could it still survive?" Maximus got curious and clicked on the preview.

"So that\'s it!" Maximus found the answer.

His opponent was indeed trapped for a moment and was hit by his spell.

But with overwhelming soul amplitude, the mana barrier that it propped up managed to nullify almost all of the damage.

The result was that although the opponent was injured, it was not enough.

Furthermore, to make the trap work and execute the finishing move, almost all his mana was depleted, giving him no time to react.

"Tsk, tsk, what a cheater," Maximus muttered.

"By the way, the evaluation..."

[Lord Grim: Rank 3 Iron

Battles: 0

Wins: 0

Losses: 0

Tie: 0

Battle Power: 8329]

The ranks are bronze, copper, iron, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, legendary, and battle god.

The rank merely indicates the highest tier he can compete in.

If he likes, he can compete in rank 1 bronze, but the energy rewards are also comparable to tier 1.

"Should I fight now?"

"You better fight quickly! So you can prove that you are indeed trash," Tintin mocked, eager to see Maximus being beaten.

"Impossible. The test trial opponent was simply a monster."

"The one I will match should also have the same battle power as me."

Maximus was confident in beating anyone of the same strength.

"Let me start the first real fight..."
