THE WORLD CONQUEST: GIVING BIRTH TO BECOME A GOD

As Maximus and his wife took a vacation, Nero and Mira were running for their lives.

“Stop! Bring that treasure down!”

“Damn, these bandits are here again!”

“Hurry up, chase them…!”

Looking at the crowd bolting behind them, Nero felt adrenaline rushing through his body.

“Quite brave, you stole a Tier 12 Ultimate Material this time.” Mira smiled while running beside him.

“It’s their bad luck. Since I saw it, it’s mine.”

Earlier, while patrolling the skies, Nero spotted the birth of a Tier 12 Ultimate Treasure.

In the blink of an eye, the rules changed, turning a piece of land into a mortal zone where no one could use their powers or treasures.

Having lived in the Chaotic Continent for ten thousand years, Nero was used to such rules.

Equipping the mechanically powered suit he had created, he bolted toward the treasure ground and picked up the Tier 12 Ultimate Material.

Seeing such audacity, the crowd went wild, chasing him in anger.

Unfortunately, although some also wore mechanical suits, none were on par with his design.

Soon, reaching the edge of the mortal zone, Nero and Mira jumped onto their floating island and bolted away.

Watching this, the crowd chasing them could only curse in frustration.

“How unlucky!”

“Tsk, it’s those two bandits again!”

—

Meanwhile, on Star Bound Island, Nero and Mira quietly examined their harvest.

[Liquid Origin Platinum: A Tier 12 Ultimate Material born in the Chaotic Continent. An enhancement material for weapon-based treasures.]

“Not bad, an enhancement-type treasure!” Nero nodded in satisfaction.

In the ten thousand years they had spent in the Chaotic Continent, this was only the second time they had collected a Tier 12 Ultimate Material.

As for a Tier 12 Ultimate Weapon, it was almost impossible.

The competition was too fierce, that even those Tier 11 powerhouses who had already forged their path would shamelessly join the fight.

Although the rules of the Chaotic Continent equalized everyone, with the differences in experience, skill set, and hidden means, they were still behind.

Looking at the ultimate material in his hands, Nero activated the ability of the Star Bound Island.

As the material was enveloped in a strange energy, a cave formed along the island, with stalactites beginning to drip Liquid Origin Platinum at regular intervals.

“Tsk, this ability is broken!”

Tier 12 Ultimate Materials were so rare that they could only be naturally produced by the Aeon Plane, yet with the Star Bound Island, he could create a natural treasure ground that continuously generated them.

However, this was not without cost. Looking at the necklace his father had given him, he saw it had dimmed slightly.

“Over a million units of Plane Origin… what a scam.” Nero felt a little distressed.

This necklace could not only regulate his mind, spirit, and origin, but it could also grant him access to vast amounts of energy—mana, origin energy, causality power, and even Plane Origin.

For mana and origin energy, he had an unlimited supply.

For causality of power, he had a billion units of quota per day.

As for Plane Origin, his father was too stingy and only gave him 1 unit per day.

Using these energies, Nero never worried about powering the Star Bound Island.

As long as he found new materials, he would integrate them into the island, forming a renewable source.

Because of this, others called his Star Bound Island the Chaos Star Land—a treasure trove coveted by many.

For materials from Tier 1 to Tier 6, Nero only needed a small amount of mana.

For Tiers 7 to 11, the island required origin energy to generate a renewable supply.

For Tier 12 materials, causality power was necessary.

For Tier 12 Ultimate Materials, it required an absurdly stupid amount of Plane Origin.

Looking at his collection, Nero couldn’t help but feel addicted.

Now, aside from vowing to perfect everything, he wanted to collect every material in the Aeon Plane.

As for the mission his father had set for him? It was already at the back of his mind.

Become the Chaos Lord of the Chaotic Continent?

Unless he became an absolute powerhouse, it was an impossible task.

Even after ten thousand years, he was still in the Tier 8 realm.

It wasn’t that he was delaying but bidding his time to lay an ultimate foundation like his family.

According to his father, without the Seed of Law, the only way to compensate for his lack of foundation was to achieve perfection in all laws.

Now, after ten thousand years of study, Nero had barely perfected a few thousand essences of law.

Thinking about the 161,803 essences of law he would need to master, he felt a wave of despair.

Such an enormous number; at this rate, it might take him millions of years to reach the Absolute Realm.

Meanwhile, like a fairy untouched by worldly burdens, Mira seemed completely unshackled.

Having already advanced to the Tier 9 realm, it was only a matter of time before she advanced.

At first, Nero suspected she was taking a shortcut—prioritizing speed and neglecting her foundation.

However, as his physique advanced into Ultimate Grade, he saw that, like his parents, Mira had no issues with her foundation whatsoever.

Feeling left behind, Nero’s excitement over acquiring another Ultimate Material faded.

“Don’t be too emotional. As long as you continue moving forward, you’ll eventually reach the end,” Mira comforted him.

“Hey… I’m just feeling a little nostalgic.”

Beyond his frustration, Nero found himself missing his family.

Throughout the years he had spent in the Chaotic Continent, they had only seen each other in the virtual world.

At most, they visited him from time to time.

Thinking back to his carefree childhood, Nero longed to return home.

“Didn’t your father say you could return anytime you wanted?”

Knowing Nero couldn’t finish the mission in a short amount of time, Maximus told him he could return home once he was tired.

“No. As long as I haven’t become the Chaos Lord, I’m not going back.”

Even though he knew it was impossible in his current state, he bore the name of the Shadowcrest Family.

If he gave up just because of a challenge, he would have no face to return home.

“It’s up to you…”

Unlike Nero, who was as stubborn as a bull, Mira returned to the Astral Continent every now and then.

Looking at his lonely back, Mira could only sigh.
