The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 259 Fighting The God Of Shadow

"Damn, is someone messing with me?!" Maximus muttered with anger.

Just before this lord abyss monster appeared here.

He didn't feel the gathering of abyss aura at all.

It can only mean that this was sent by an enemy.

A strong one at that, at least tier 9.

Seeing the lord abyss monster, his guild members who were in formation froze for a second.

"Just concentrate on what you are doing," Maximus comforted.

"Do you want to try it?" Maximus asked Skye.

"Hahaha, I'm glad you asked!" Skye's face lit up as he looked at the abyss monster.

"Just be careful," Maximus didn't worry about any danger.

This lord abyss monster didn't possess any abyss source, unlike the one they fought in the Eternal Ruin Outpost.

With a leap, Skye pushed the abyss monster away from the stronghold.

Thud!

"Hehe, let's fight this outside!" Skye muttered, not wanting their stronghold to be damaged.

Roar!

Roar!

Unfortunately, the lord abyss monster didn't seem to be intelligent and could only roar in anger.

Seeing Skye able to match such a monster.

The guild members in formation heaved a sigh of relief and concentrated on the battle.

"Defend the stronghold!" Andrew yelled as they concentrated their efforts.

Meanwhile, Maximus was busy spreading his micro-surveillance bots away to find the enemy.

Before setting up the protection array, Maximus had already set up the micro-surveillance array in a million-kilometer radius.

However, it seemed that the enemy noticed these and purposely evaded the surveillance.

Over the years, the micro-surveillance bots had gone through millions of iterations.

They were already at nano size, with a hundred thousand times their previous capacity.

Even in this abyss with thick devouring properties, they could continue to exist for a few days before dissolving.

...

Soon after a few hours, a hundred million kilometers away, he finally saw the culprit.

"God of Shadow?"

Nyx also seemed to see him and smiled.

Before he could think further.

He saw the God of Shadow grab a bunch of tier 7 and tier 8 lord abyss monsters and throw them into him.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Like raining meteorites, a bunch of Lord Abyss monsters appeared and attacked the stronghold.

"Damn, god!" Spreading his domain, he crushed all the Abyss monsters coming his way in an instant.

Mobilizing his power, he teleported a million times and arrived in front of the Shadow God in just a few seconds.

"What do you want?" Maximus asked coldly.

Although the Abyss monsters meant nothing to him.

He still felt irritated, as if someone were throwing rubbish at his house while it was being renovated.

"I'm just bored," Nyx said, squinting his eyes.

Nyx had been watching Maximus throughout the decade, but he still didn't find any hint of treasure that interested him.

Knowing that Maximus planned to set up an outpost.

Nyx took his chance to further observe if Maximus truly carried treasure worthy of his attention.

After sending the first Lord-level Abyss monster, he thought Maximus would fight it out.

Who knew there was a monster beside him who could duke it out with a Lord-level Abyss monster single-handedly?

Before he could further plan, the micro-surveillance bots reached his way.

With no other choice, he could only check personally himself.

"Then you should go back to your place and sleep," Maximus muttered dissatisfiedly.

"I naturally wanted to play with yo-" Before Nyx finished speaking, a fist unknowingly implanted in his stomach.

Thud!

Getting up, Nyx looked at Maximus coldly.

"You were saying?" Maximus pricked his ears.

Equipping various Tier 9 treasures, from full-body armors to different accessories and auxiliary floating items.

Maximus now resembled a god of wealth descending from the abyss.

Maximus felt power spreading from every pore of his body as he looked eagerly at the Shadow God.

"Damn, rich kid!" Nyx thought angrily.

With a rough look, Nyx saw over 10 Tier 9 treasures on Maximus's body.

Although he was expecting Maximus to have some treasure, it wasn't these trash.

What he wanted was at least god-level initiate treasure comparable to a complete godhead.

However, even so, with the bunch of treasures on Maximus.

Although not comparable to what he had in mind, it was amazing enough.

"What are you scared?" Maximus smiled and taunted.

Nyx didn't like to talk and quickly attacked.

A huge essence of law immediately spread as the whole world plunged into darkness.

Even with various illuminating items, Maximus couldn't see anything.

Clang!

A crisp sound was heard as he felt a strike hitting him.

Although Maximus was sent flying, he just frowned, not feeling any damage.

"This is troublesome..." He frowned.

With darkness all around, he couldn't see anything.

Even his domain seemed to be blind and couldn't see anything.

As his brain processed everything around him.

He suddenly thought of his system.

"Scan!" He thought internally.

Although the system range was only dozens of kilometers, it was enough.

Not seeing the God of Shadow in the system scan range, he remained alert.

Suddenly, a tentacle-like shadow appeared and tried to hit him.

Clang!

Maximus didn't dodge and let it hit him.

If the God of Shadow knew that he could see everything in here, then he would probably not get close to him.

Soon, shadow tentacle after shadow tentacle hit him all around.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

A few minutes later.

After wasting a few thousand years' worth of essence of law, nothing happened to Maximus

Nyx was already smoking with anger.

"Damn, that armor!"

"Just what is that made of?!"

"This can't continue..." Nyx muttered as he attacked himself.

Through all the encounters earlier.

He already noticed that Maximus didn't seem to have any treasure to see in his shadow domain made of the essence of law.

With confidence, he slowly walked towards Maximus as he gathered power in his hands.

"Die!" Accumulating his strength, Nyx attacked Maximus forcefully.

Unfortunately, what greeted him was a punch from Maximus.

Thud!

The shadow domain was immediately disintegrated as Nyx was sent a few million kilometers away.

"Damn, god wasting my precious mana accumulation," Maximus complained.

The punch just now used a year of his accumulated mana that he needed to come back to the Etherium Realm.

Now, instead of two years, he needed three years to come back to the Etherium Realm.

...

Cough!

Cough!

Cough!

Nyx coughed heavily as he felt the injury in his stomach.

Using the essence of law, it began to slowly heal.

Finally spending the accumulation of a million years' worth of essence of law, the injury was healed.

However, there was not a hint of a smile on Nyx's face.

There was only gloominess, wishing he could tear Maximus into pieces.

This was a million years of worth of refinement.

He just wasted it on some brat who didn't even reach tier 8.

With shame and anger burning inside of him, Nyx saw Maximus walking toward him leisurely.

"Do you like it?" Maximus teased.

Although he was also angry with the God of Shadow for wasting his accumulated mana.

Maximus was still happy to see such a look.

"I'll kill you!" Nyx muttered heavily as he gathered his attack.

Maximus also became serious and looked heavily.

The fight earlier could be said to be child's play.

If the God of Shadow became serious, he could only escape for his life.

Just as he prepared for defense, they heard a sigh that silenced everything.

"Enough..." Just one word, Nyx stopped what he was doing and looked at the person coming warily.

"Golden Rakasha..." Maximus and Nyx muttered.

Golden Rakasha is the leader of the Etherium Council.

He was born and raised in the abyss, resulting in his massive rise in power.

It is said that in the abyss realm, even those ancient apex sovereigns were no match for him.

"What do you think you are doing?" Rakasha asked heavily.

"We were just sparing, my lord," Nyx hurriedly said.

"That's right, the God of Shadow was just teaching me some tricks," Maximus also lied.

Fighting with their people is explicitly prohibited in the abyss.

Although the Etherium Council didn't enforce it most of the time.

If enforced, the punishment would send them to a living hell.

"Is that so?" Rakasha confirmed.

Although Rakasha knew they were just fooling him, he didn't let the cat out of the bag.

After all, the whole fight was also watched by him from the very beginning

If he punished them, didn't that mean he was also an accomplice?

"Everything is true, my lord," Nyx and Maximus said in unison as they looked at each other with hatred.

"Oh, I'm being a busybody then."

"No, you're not, my lord," Nyx flattered.

"Since there is no real fight, then that's fine."

"However, this is a warning."

"If you were caught 'sparring' again at such a high intensity, there would be due punishment."

"You should remember that our enemy is the abyss, not ourselves..."

"We remember, my lord!"

"Hmm," Rakasha nodded and disappeared.

Seeing that the sword hanging above their heads disappeared, Maximus and Nyx heaved a sigh of relief.

"You're lucky!" Nyx said gritting his teeth.

"This is natural; if I'm not lucky, then could it be you?" Maximus smiled.

Although he wasted a bit of his mana accumulation.

He was sure that Nyx wasted more essence of law healing his injury.

"Damn brat!" Nyx didn't want to talk any longer and teleported away.
