The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

A few months after the top forces in the Dimensional Alliance signed the treaty, the Tower of Knowledge became immensely popular.

Members of the top families, elite sects' disciples, and the Overlords' organization members flocked to experience the features of the Tower of Knowledge.

Thanks to the contract, they could access the first hundred thousand floors and browse all the books for free.

Ingrid, one of the Primordial Candidates from the Midgar Family, grew curious and decided to visit the library.

Upon reaching the hundred-thousandth floor, he felt his comprehension skyrocket nearly a hundredfold.

Slightly impressed, he sat down and browsed through books of interest, from history to forbidden techniques.

A few hours later, Ingrid felt bored.

Although it was interesting, reading books wasn't really his thing.

"Is that it?"

Feeling that his family had overpaid for nothing, he couldn't help but complain.

If the only benefit was enhanced comprehension, the Midgar Family had better treasures and potions with similar effects.

As for knowledge, although not as comprehensive, they still held a vast collection as one of the top families.

Suddenly, Ingrid overheard a clansman muttering something.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"I'm asking the Spirit of Knowledge to deduce a tailored cultivation manual for me."

"Hm? This tower can also deduce knowledge?"

Focused on training, Ingrid didn't know much about the Tower of Knowledge.

If not for his father's insistence, he wouldn't have known the so-called supreme Primordial Candidate ran a business as dull as a library.

Learning this from his clanmate, Ingrid summoned the Spirit of Knowledge.

"Can you really deduce anything?"

[Yes. However, according to the contract, you would only receive a discount for the deduction.]

"I know. Then, deduce my chances of defeating Paragon!" Ingrid asked in curiosity.

Although Maximus was called the Supreme Primordial Candidate and the first among them to master a path of law, Ingrid still revered Paragon and believed he was the strongest.

[This deduction would cost 10,000 origin coins. Do you wish to proceed?]

"Just ten thousand? Proceed!"

[Deducing…]

[Ingrid Midgar: Tier 10 Realm, 630 million power magnitude, 67% mastery of the River of Divine Law.]

[Paragon: Tier 10 Realm, 3.8 trillion power magnitude, 99.99% mastery of the River of Boundless.]

[Probability of defeating Paragon: 0.000001%]

"W-What? I only have a millionth of a chance against Paragon? Is he that strong?!"

[This deduction does not account for interference by the Master of Absolutes or Overlords.]

"I see…" Ingrid sighed, feeling helpless.

Paragon really was out of his reach.

"What about Maximus? What are my chances of defeating him?"

[This deduction would cost 100,000 origin coins. Do you wish to proceed?]

"A hundred thousand? Why is it ten times more expensive? And isn't there a discount?"

[Higher-tier deductions cost more.]

[The discount has been applied. According to the agreement, deductions under 10 million origin coins are discounted 90%.]

"Is Maximus truly stronger than Paragon? Deduce it—I want to know the difference."

[Deducing…]

[Maximus: Tier 10 Realm 10.5 trillion magnitude of power. Master of River of Knowledge]

[Probability of defeating Maximus: 0.0000001%]

"A ten-millionth chance? Is he that incredible?" Ingrid muttered, wondering if the Spirit of Knowledge was merely protecting its creator's reputation.

However, seeing the 10.5 trillion magnitudes of power, he couldn't be more shocked.

"Over ten trillion magnitude of power? Is he still in the tier 10 realm?"

Although mastery of a river of law could increase the amplitude of power, it shouldn't surpass 10 trillion.

If not for the limitless ability of the origin of law to bear power, Ingrit would have even thought Maximus was a dark creature in disguise.

"What would I need to do to catch up to them?" Ingrid asks expectantly.

Seeing trillions and trillions of magnitude of power compared to his mere hundreds of millions, he felt he was unworthy of standing on the same stage as them.

[This would cost 30 million origin coins to deduce. Do you wish to proceed?]

"Proceed!"

It was only money, after all. As a Primordial Candidate, he still had hundreds of trillions in his pocket.

[Deducing…]

[To catch up, you need to:

Change to an ultimate cultivation manual.

2. Master the Path of Divine Law to the Ocean level.

3. Acquire a complete set of ultimate treasures.

4. Become a dimensional master of a Tier 12 dimension.

5. Master alchemy to the Tier 12 realm.

6. Master all runic languages.

7. …]

Seeing the endless list of requirements, Ingrid grew solemn.

"How could I possibly do all this? Isn't this an empty deduction? What a waste of money!" he complained.

Although some tasks seemed useful, he lacked the time and loathed the boredom they entailed.

[To achieve the impossible, you must also attempt the impossible.]

"What? Are you mocking me?" Ingrid muttered angrily, yet the line resonated with him.

If he truly dreamed of surpassing those at the top, he'd have to leave his comfort zone.

Since it was an impossible dream, he also needed to achieve impossible things.

"What about Borish? How can I surpass him in strength?"

Ingrid was the 11th of the 13 Primordial Candidates. Borish, from the Primordial Beast Alliance, ranked 10th.

[This deduction would require…]

"Just proceed. I can afford it."

[Deducing…]

[To surpass Borish, you need to change your cultivation manual to one tailored to your physique and path of law.]

"Can you do that?"

His cultivation manual was near-ultimate, containing 161,802 laws.

However, due to his family's limited resources, he couldn't select a manual more attuned to his physique and path.

[Yes, it would cost 150 trillion origin coins to deduce.]

"Is that price discounted?" Ingrid gasped.

[No. According to the agreement, once the deduction price reaches a trillion, no discounts apply.]

[Do you wish to proceed?]

"This—" looking at his balance of about 150 trillion, Ingrid felt as if the Spirit of Knowledge was extorting him.

After a moment's hesitation, he gritted his teeth and proceeded.

If this could make him stronger, it was worth the cost.

[This deduction will take 75 years. Please wait…]

…

Meanwhile, at the top of the Tower of Knowledge, Maximus gazed down upon the bustling crowds.

Prodigies, old masters, mediocre elites, and arrogant entities had all gathered in the library.

"Now, let's see if there will be more true seekers of knowledge…"
