Chapter 433 Choosing Ultimate Treasure
Chapter 433 Choosing Ultimate Treasure
Reading further into the introduction, Maximus noticed a warning at the end.
Unlike other ultimate treasures, the Plane Gate couldn't be bound directly.
Other ultimate treasures could be bound forcibly with the help of the Virtual Realm.
The Plane Gate, on the other hand, only had coordinates.
As for how he would subdue it, or if he could even subdue it, that was up to him.
Seeing this, Maximus's lips couldn't help but twitch.
"Why place such a treasure if it can only be seen?" he cursed.
Maximus felt that this virtual tower was scamming him; placing a treasure that couldn't be retrieved was a waste of his feelings.
Looking at the awesome introduction of the Plane Gate, he nearly drooled.
Ultimate Indestructibility.
Possessing the Plane Gate would make one invulnerable to any attack in the Aeon Plane.
No matter the quantity or quality, it wouldn't have any effect.
Mastering the Plane Gate was equivalent to invincibility.
Unfortunately, the large glare of the warning threw him off.
The Plane Gate was one of the top three ultimate treasures in the Aeon Plane.
According to the Overlords' deduction, one had to be at least the Plane Master of the Aeon Plane for one to be recognized by the treasure.
Becoming a Plane Master? It's an impossible prerequisite.
Based on the Dimensional Alliance database, there are six known entities that possess the power of overlord.
Three from the Dimensional Alliance, and three from the side of the Devourer.
Yet, since the beginning of time, no one from them had become the master of the Aeon Plane.
If one had to be the Aeon Plane Master just to be recognized by the Plane Gate, then this treasure might as well not be here.
If those overlord powerhouses couldn't be recognized by such a treasure, then how could he?
Sighing in disappointment, he looked through the other ten ultimate treasures.
[Tome of Life and Death: Decide the life and death of anyone in the Aeon Plane...] n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Another domineering treasure," Maximus couldn't help but click his tongue.
This ultimate treasure was basically what its description says: it decides life and death.
Mastering this treasure would make one the arbiter of life, deciding who can rightfully live and die.
All the beings that had lived or had been living in the Aeon plane would be written in the tome of life and death.
Thus, anyone who hadn't surpassed the user's strength could be killed or resurrected with one thought.
Unfortunately, it didn't have much use to him.
The only things he cared about who had been dead were the parents of this original body after he transmigrated.
However after such a long time, without any interaction, he had long forgotten them.
If not for this treasure which reminded him of his parent, he might never have remembered them.
"I'll resurrect you and your son after I'm strong enough..." Maximus vowed.
Although he was only given a physical body, the debt of another life should still be repaid.
Turning around, he looked through other treasures.
[Dream Gate: The key to reality and dreams, the way through all parallel realms...]
"Hiss, this is also awesome."
The Dream Gate could enter and create any dreams and make them real.
The resources, knowledge, and lives inside could be condensed to become a reality.
Possessing the Dream Gate would be a key to an unmined and untouched virtual reality.
However, he didn't have a shortage of resources.
Although Dream Gate could also be used to attack, it didn't have much appeal to him.
Thus after a short look, he went to other treasures.
[Aeon Chart: The bridge of the Aeon Plane, a map that interconnects all of the void and dimensions...]
"A space treasure?"
The Aeon Chart is like the sibling of the Eternal Eye.
If the Eternal Eye could watch anything, then the Aeon Chart could take one anywhere.
As long as one had been in the place or even had a vague interpretation, the Aeon Chart could directly teleport one to their destination.
If these two could be mastered at the same time, the whole Aeon Plane would be at hand.
Maximus wondered why these two were still here.
Sitting in this treasure room was a waste of these treasures.
Using these two treasures, those Overlords could have plundered the entire Aeon Plane long ago.
What Maximus didn't know is that there is a limit to the ultimate treasures one could possess.
Even a Tier 12 Overlord powerhouse could only possess three ultimate treasures.
Otherwise, they would be expelled from the Aeon Plane for plundering its world.
They were already at the peak of the world; all material and worldly desires were just within an arm's reach.
A treasure that could only be used as an auxiliary was not on their list of choices.
Thus, until now, besides the Plane Gate, Maximus still hadn't found a treasure that could boost his power or defense.
Every ultimate treasure here was auxiliary, making him a little depressed.
If Maximus hadn't seen Malgron's attack-type ultimate treasure, he would doubt that there is only an auxiliary treasure in the Aeon Plane.
Browsing all the ultimate treasures that possess the causality of time, space, life, death, destiny, balance, order, truth, creation, etc.,
Maximus remained undecided on what to choose.
It's like an automatic checker; you feed it an instance, and it would judge whether it's true or false.
He was torn between two ultimate treasures.
First is the Seal of Truth, an ultimate treasure that could judge the truth of everything in the world.
It's like an automatic checker; you feed it an instance, and it would judge whether it's true or false.
You ask it a question, and it would answer yes or no.
Although it's a simple treasure, for Maximus, this is the most amazing auxiliary treasure he has ever seen.
With his consciousness running at billions and trillions of times compared to reality, every movement of his could be verified.
Would moving 1 attometer to the left be dangerous?
Is the word 'spirit' appropriate for the next sentence?
Would this move of mine succeed?
With too many possibilities and immediate answers, possessing the Seal of Truth would make him omnipotent.
From his daily life to his cultivation, the Seal of Truth was a perfect match.
Another treasure he was deliberating about is the Philosopher's Source.
This is a creation-type ultimate treasure that could create anything in existence.
By "anything," it means literally anything.
This is a heaven-defying treasure that could even create a clone of a Tier 12 Overlord if he willed it.
Just with the prospect, Maximus nearly chose it instantly.
With it, he would no longer have to worry about anything ever.
It could even condense an origin-grade physique for him to play with if he wanted.
Having the Philosopher's Source was like holding the power of the entire plane.
Unfortunately, like all great things in the world, there is always a downside.
The Philosopher's Source requires a terrifying amount of energy.
There are two steps to using the Philosopher Source: input the idea and provide energy.
To input the idea, the clearer the subject, the less the consumption.
Unfortunately, even the most detailed idea, down to the very essence, every particle of the object one wanted, would still consume 100 times the energy needed to normally produce it.
In the past, the Overlords tried to test it and create an ultimate treasure, but before it could continue, they hurriedly cut it off.
They concluded that to produce the ultimate treasure, it would require 30 percent of the entire Aeon Plane energy.
Such a consumption would crush the Aeon Plane out of existence instantly.
Thus, one of the top three ultimate treasures besides the Plane Gate, has remained untouched all this time.
Although the Philosopher's Source has such a downside, for Maximus, it's nothing.
Possessing unlimited energy, he didn't need to worry about consumption.
Unfortunately, the rank of his physique is still weak.
Furthermore, even if it reached Rank 12, it could only provide him with unlimited amounts of origin energy.
Guessing from the Overlords' use of the Philosopher Source, origin energy is certainly not enough.
Maximus guessed that the lower the tier of energy, the slower it is to condense the object one wants to create.
To create an ultimate treasure, using only origin energy, an epoch isn't enough to measure the time it would take to condense.
Otherwise, with various time treasures and techniques, those Overlords wouldn't need to worry even if they used lower-tier energy.
They could just use void energy, which is everywhere in the Aeon Plane, and put a time array that could speed time a billion epochs per second, yet they didn't.
Maximus concluded that such a means would take eternity, with all life in the Aeon Plane entering a cycle before it could even condense.
Such a huge disadvantage made him hesitate.
He was a little Tier 9 weakling; if he chose the Philosopher's Source, he would indeed have unlimited possibilities in the future.
However, at that time, he might not even need anything.
Reaching the peak of the world and further surpassing it, everything he desired would be within his grasp, so why would he need such a treasure?
Thinking of this, he took the Seal of Truth decisively.
Immediate strength is better than unlimited possibilities that he may not even live to see.
