The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God-Chapter 773: Waking Up Scarlet
After getting the plane origin, the Overlords didn't say another word and quickly left the place.
They didn't want to see his smug face any longer. Having gotten what they wanted, they had no business left to do.
"Tsk, too stingy~ Didn't I just get some ultimate treasure?" Maximus commented, seeing their hurried expressions.
Although the Overlords were losing a lot, it was still a sure-fire investment.
They might not earn back the ultimate treasure and materials even after a few epochs.
However, as long as they didn't advance to the Tier 13 realm, they would have continued access to wealth that only a Tier 13 individual could touch.
And if they advanced to Tier 13 sooner, it was an even bigger win.
Who would want just wealth when they could gain the strength to generate wealth?
It could be said that although Maximus was at an advantage now, in the long run, the Overlords would still come out ahead.
No matter whether they advanced or not, they were set for life.
Of course, if he broke through to Tier 13 first, their contract would be void.
With his strength, even if it wasn't stated in the contract, he could break through the binding of the Aeon Plane.
Shaking his head, Maximus headed deeper into the castle, walking toward Scarlet's Seclusion Room.
Now that the Abyss Realm could accelerate her advancement, staying in seclusion like this was a waste of time.
Notifying Scarlet of his presence, the room slowly opened.
"Maximus…"
Seeing him, Scarlet was still starstruck, unable to calm her emotions.
"I'm here. No need to get emotional."
Seeing Scarlet about to have withdrawals again, Maximus hurriedly pulled her into his arms.
"Maximus, you're really here…" Feeling his warmth, Scarlet finally began to calm down.
After spending billions of epochs apart, she still couldn't get over the fact that they were together again.
"Don't worry, I promised I wouldn't leave you alone…"
"Hmm."
"Come, let me show you around the place."
Not in a hurry to send Scarlet back to training, he began showing her around, visiting all the familiar places.
Having been in seclusion for over a million years, Scarlet was filled with curiosity, looking at the massive changes in the Etherium Realm.
Looking out at the blood-red moon that was the Chaos Dimension and the growing Shadow Void Land, she couldn't help but be amazed.
"You did all this in just over a million years?"
"How is it? Is your husband great?"
"Great! My husband is the best," Scarlet cheered like a little girl.
Even the Abyss, which could expand endlessly, couldn't have changed this much in just a million years.
If Maximus weren't beside her, Scarlet might have thought she was hallucinating.

After touring the Etherium Realm, they went into the Chaos Dimension and entered a trial.
Due to the limited time, Maximus even asked Nero for a special event that would last only 10 years.
Disguising themselves, they blazed through the trial, defeating everyone until they claimed the ultimate prize:
[Red Abyss Flower: An eternal flower that can bloom even in the deepest abyss.]
"How beautiful~"
Though it was just a flower, Scarlet saw it as the greatest treasure in the world.
"Do you like it?"
"Like~"
Feeling happy, Scarlet gave Maximus a kiss.
---
After having fun in the Chaos Dimension, they returned to the Shadow Void Land to rest a little.
"What do we do next, Maximus?" Scarlet asked excitedly.
For her, no matter what they did, as long as she was with her beloved, everything felt fun and exciting.
"We'll take a tour of this place, then I'll send you to the Abyss."
"Huh? Are you kicking me away?" Scarlet teared up, thinking Maximus no longer wanted her.
"No, no. I made a deal with Nyx, the Will of the Abyss, to help you advance to the Absolute Realm."
Hearing that Maximus wasn't sending her away, Scarlet calmed down.
But then she began to wonder if Maximus didn't trust her to advance on her own. That thought made her emotional again.
"Why? Couldn't I do it on my own?"
"I believe in you. I know you can achieve anything if you put your mind to it. Unfortunately, we don't have time to wait…" Maximus sighed, explaining the situation of the dark disaster.
Because Iris and Scarlet had gone into seclusion before he knew the dark disaster was coming to advance, she still had no idea they were deep in the Dark Void Domain.
"I see…"
Hearing that danger was imminent, Scarlet felt a new sense of urgency.
Without strength, not only would she fail to protect her beloved, she might even become a burden that dragged him down.
Not wanting to waste even a single moment, Scarlet forgot about having fun, ready to leave right away.
"Let's go now. Since you need my strength, I don't have any time to waste!"
"Are you sure?" Maximus asked, seeing the resolve in Scarlet's eyes.
"Come on, don't dawdle. Let's go to the Abyss."
Grabbing Maximus, Scarlet activated her connection to the Abyss and teleported them both in the blink of an eye.
---
"So fast?"
Arriving at their destination, Maximus was a little shocked.
He hadn't expected the Abyss to have such a convenient teleportation function.
"This is thanks to our connection to the Abyss. Once an abyssal creature forges their Path of Law, no matter where they are in the Aeon Plane, they can return here anytime."
"Quite convenient…" Maximus muttered, already thinking about how to create an array with the same function in the Shadow Void Land.
Even if he couldn't fully recreate it, as long as it worked, that was enough.
Getting over his surprise, Maximus finally had time to take a look around the Abyss.
The Abyss, an ever-expanding darkness that devoured everything.
Closely resembling the properties of the Dark Beasts. At one point, the whole Aeon Plane even treated them as an enemy, mistaking them for Dark Beasts in another form.
Fortunately, the Abyss operated differently. They devoured, not destroyed. They sought power, not chaos.
More importantly, they had intelligence, consciousness, and a will born from the same source.
Though they were beastly and caused a lot of destruction, they were still fundamentally creatures who acted out of interest, not mindless ruin.
