The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 384 Dimensional War Ranking

"I want to unite the Etherium Realm under me," Maximus said firmly.

Hearing what he said, Fealan, Alabaster, and Readius paused, thinking he was joking.

Meanwhile, Malgron just smiled, looking forward to a good show.

"What a greedy brat! Who do you think you are?" Alabaster said, looking like he was about to teach him a lesson.

Readius, on the side also smiled thinking Maximus was out of his mind.

"I'm Maximus Shadowcrest, the Holy Emperor of the Moonlight Empire, the controller of the Curse Continent, I wanted the Etherium Realm to be under me," Maximus said with a smile.

"This is too hasty," Fealan said with a frown.

Although Fealan knew his son-in-law was ambitious, he didn't expect Maximus to be this impatient.

He should've waited until he was stronger than them, or at least until he was healed.

"Haha, this brat just needs some beating!"

Although they admitted that Maximus could compete with them, the winner and loser were not yet clear.

As for Maximus's seemingly unlimited energy, in their eyes, it was only a trick.

Although they couldn't be as extravagant as Maximus, there were many ways to achieve this kind of seemingly unlimited energy.

Like Readius, although he could get less Faith than Maximus getting an Amalgamation of Will.

After countless epochs of accumulation, his energy reserve was enough to drown Maximus.

Just because Readius was stingy like an old dog, he hadn't contributed his energy reserve in the battle.

Anyway, there was already Maximus, who was generous enough.

"The unity of the Etherium Realm is a must, and it must be done as quickly as possible," Maximus reasoned, not deterred by Alabaster and Readius.

"Heh! Then how about you submit to me? Why should it be you?!" Alabaster said, looking at Maximus ridiculously.

"Hahaha, talking about this, it's only natural for the God of Gods to be the ruler of the Etherium Realm," Readius said with a laugh.

Now that there was no longer an external enemy, it was time to split the interests in the Etherium Realm.

"What about you, Fealan? You should also want to be the ruler of the Etherium Realm!" Malgron said, adding fuel to the fire.

"I'm not that ambitious..."

"We already have the Etherium Alliance, having all the Apex Sovereigns of the world. There's no need to be so radical," Fealan said, calming the atmosphere.

"This is not enough," Maximus said.

"The binding power of the Etherium Alliance is not enough."

"Hmph! What binding power? Why do we need it? Strength is enough to bind everything!" Alabaster said forcefully, not liking the word 'binding.'

"Yes, furthermore, what are you blabbering about? Unite? Why do we need to unite?"

"Isn't it enough to be on each of our continents?" Readius said impatiently.

Readius didn't have any interest in the other continents.

As long as he had the Divine Continent, what more would he need?

The power of faith couldn't be fully utilized on other continents.

Due to the imperfect fusion of the Etherium Realm, absorbing faith on other continents is too inefficient.

If he had that time, then it was better to make the Divine Continent bigger and more prosperous.

"The Etherium Realm is no longer unknown..." Maximus said silently.

Suddenly, they seemed to be enlightened, looking gloomily.

"Have we been targeted by another dimension?" Fealan asked.

They had only explored the Nexus Virtual Gateway for a few days.

Getting to know the hidden rules of the Dimensional Alliance.

They knew that the danger they would face next would not only be the straightforward attacks of the Devourers but also the hidden arrows of higher dimensions.

"Hmmm," Maximus nodded, showing various messages hacked by Jixie.

As a Nexus fairy, Jixie was omnipotent in the virtual world.

As long as one had money, even if it was a tier 12 dimension behind the scenes, Jixie wouldn't care.

Unfortunately for these messages, Maximus had to spend a couple of septillions.

"Over a hundred..." they muttered gloomily, looking at a bunch of traitors.

Just for some money, they dared to sell out the Etherium Realm.

Fortunately, all of them had already died in the earlier fight.

Suddenly they look at Maximus doubtfully.

"Don't look at me like that. I didn't kill them. I just didn't help," Maximus defended.

Most of the Apex Sovereigns who died were these traitors.

If not, there would have been only dozens of casualties.

To dare to sell them out for some money, they didn't deserve any mercy, much less his help.

"So that's why..."

Understanding the core of the problem, it seemed they really needed to unite the whole Etherium Realm.

Only by gathering the whole dimension could they have a chance of survival.

"How about it?"

"Uniting the Etherium Realm is a must... However, why should we be under you?" Readius asked.

Having fought together against the Abyss, they were not entirely against unity.

However, having someone above them?

They would rather die and have the whole Etherium Realm destroyed than accept that.

Throughout their lives, they had always been at the top.

Pushing them off it was worse than killing them.

"Is this about resources? Pride? Sentimentality, or what?" Maximus frowned seeing they didn't budge.

"Maximus... no matter what you do or what you give, you can never persuade them," Malgron advised.

In the past, he had also tried to conquer these bastards.

However, even under the threat of death, they didn't change their stance and were ready to trade their lives for what they wanted.

"Is that so..." Maximus paused, seeing their expressions.

It seemed he had indeed been too hasty.

These arrogant powerhouses had been on top all their lives.

How could they be under him just because he said so?

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.

He didn't need the allegiance of these arrogant powerhouses.

He just needed to have absolute control of the Etherium Realm.

Although it might seem the same, it's different.

"Since you don't want to be under me... how about your people, your territory? How about you give it to me?"

"Hahaha, Maximus, you are truly the greediest of all!" Malgron laughed loudly.

"Enough! You're testing our bottom line!" Alabaster, who had the hottest temper, was already ready to attack.

"The enemy outside our dimension?!"

"Unite?!"

"How are these things related to you greedily eyeing the Etherium Realm?!"

"It's because I can," Maximus said with a smile.

He knew reason couldn't persuade these powerhouses.

He can only hope that his fist could persuade them somehow.

"What arrogant words!" Readius said coldly, joining Alabaster.

"You can't beat me..." Maximus said playfuly.

As a killing intent flashed in their eyes, Malgron suddenly coughed, interrupting the erupting battle.

"You don't need to be so tense. We shouldn't fight among ourselves."

"What Fealan said is right. Instead of fighting for the ruler, why don't all of us become one?"

"Malgron..."

"Maximus, although I don't know if you could defeat them, it's too hasty." Malgron shook his head.

Although he had the intention of watching the show, once everything went awry, Malgron still had to step in.

Like in the past, instead of sacrificing all the living beings in the Etherium Realm, Malgron bravely stood up and sacrificed himself.

"I'm just joking, I simply want to prove that I have that capability."

Since they ask for his plan, then Maximus can only truthfully say it.

What he wanted was absolute control of the Etherium Realm.

Now that he had the strength to do it why not?

With all of the Apex Sovereigns injured, the only obstacle was these powerhouses before him.

If he didn't take this chance, then when will he?

"Then why are so hasty?"

"It's for the Dimensional War Ranking."

"Dimensional War Ranking?"

"The Dimensional War Ranking is a way for all dimensions to advance to tier 12," Maximus said, showing them the information he compiled.

Dimensional War Ranking is an all-out war for a dimension to advance.

It was a ruthless battle where only one dimension could advance.

This was the Dimensional Alliance way to produce a steady stream of tier 12 dimensions without destroying the balance of their plane of existence.

In the Dimensional War Ranking, only dimensions on the same rank are allowed to fight with each other.

No matter the conflict, hatred or interest, a higher dimension couldn't directly attack a lower dimension joining the Dimensional War Ranking.

Unlike the current situation of the Etherium Realm, although they have the protection of Dimensional Alliance it's only superficial.

As long a high enough dimension wanted, they can make up reasons and directly declare war.

As for unknown dimensions who hadn't joined the Dimensional Alliance, they were doomed to be conquered without any rights.

Just like the Etherium Realm in the past which could only defend from the Abyss invasion helplessly.

Without the transdimensional system, they wouldn't even know that there is a greater world out there.

Now they were facing the hunters interested in their Dimension.

If they wanted a fighting chance they could only join the Dimensional War Ranking, forging a path of blood.
