“Based on those kid’s interests, we can only offer our ultimate treasure,” Elvian muttered with heartache.

Through all their transactions with Maximus, they knew he had a special liking for ultimate treasures, especially those ranked among the top thousand and top hundred.

Just during the dimensional competition millions of years ago, if not for their strength, they felt Maximus would have robbed them blind.

“Ultimate treasures? Then give it to him. After we advance to the Tier 13 realm, what ultimate treasure could we not get? Would it still even be useful to us?” Frir said, not taking it seriously.

Among them, the only use of ultimate treasures and materials for him was for experiments. Once he reached Tier 13 Realm, Frir was sure his research would evolve even further.

“Just ultimate treasures? I’m sure that brat won’t be satisfied,” Ascelon thought decisively.

Having Maximus’s wealth and bargaining power, if it were him, how could he be content with a mere ultimate treasure?

“Anyway, as long as we have something he wants, I’m willing to offer anything for that supply of plane origin that could help me advance to Tier 13,” Sira said, ready to sacrifice even her innocence.

Once she advanced to Tier 13, the Zergs would rise to the top.

For her dream, nothing was too much.

“I’m also willing to exchange anything…” Nyx agreed readily.

To achieve the Tier 12 realm, he had even thought of giving up his foundation, the abyss. What could he not give for the chance to reach Tier 13?

Although his incarnation still hadn’t advanced to the Tier 12 Overlord Realm, preparing early was necessary.

“Tsk, too much talk. We should just ask Maximus what he wants and decide if we can do it. If not, then just beat him up until he submits,” Lazo said, still not taking it seriously.

With half a plane treasure merged into his body, he could go anywhere.

As for advancing to Tier 13, if fate willed it, he would gladly accept it—if not, he would sleep until the opportunity came.

Deciding on the matter, they headed toward the Shadow Void Land situated in the sub-void near the junction of the Dark Void Domain.

Arriving at the Shadow Void Land, they began to morph their figures until they shrank to human size.

Although it was a little uncomfortable, especially for Lazo, who was used to his void beast body, seeing the array ahead, they knew they couldn’t enter with their huge forms.

Entering the array, they were immediately shocked.

“Is this really the front line of the Dark Disaster?”

“It’s more prosperous than the center of the Aeon Plane!”

“Surely, it’s the concentration of all the power in our plane. If it didn’t have such vitality, how could it dream of expelling the Dark Disaster?”

“Tsk, I wonder how much money this place could produce?”

“It should be enough to surpass all of our income combined…”

Walking inconspicuously through the Shadow Void Land, they couldn’t help but discuss the liveliness of the place.

They even momentarily forgot why they had come, looking enviously at the prosperity around them.

It seemed that, in just a short while, if they could somehow survive the onslaught of the Dark Disaster and the external forces outside the Aeon Plane, Maximus would become the leading man to stir their ship.

Worrying about their future, they couldn’t help but think wildly.

“This won’t do. We need to quickly advance to the Tier 13 realm…”

If they advanced to the Tier 13 realm, no matter how high Maximus could rise, they would still have a place in the future.

At the very least, they would be on equal standing, and if not, they could roam the Chaotic Void and build their own ambitions.

Knowing that Tier 13 was the peak of the Planar Chaos Region, they would have a place wherever they went.

Unable to hold on any longer, they began to spread their presence, invisible to most powerhouses, announcing their arrival to Maximus.

In the Source of Knowledge, as Maximus was busily experimenting with a new Ether Device, he felt the presence of the overlords.

“Oh, they’re here? It seems they’ve woken up from their seclusion.”

Knowing their thoughts, he expected they would quickly find him once they woke up.

“Haha, time to kill the whale…”

“Maximus, you’re here…” they muttered, acknowledging his arrival.

“Welcome to the Shadow Void Land,” Maximus greeted them with a smile.

Although they were in different forms, feeling their familiar auras, he immediately knew they were the overlords.

“Let’s go to another place. I reserved a spot for you.”

“Then lead the way…”

Following Maximus, they arrived at the gates of the Etherium Realm’s Shadowcrest Castle.

“Is this your famous castle? What a grand place,” Elvian muttered enviously.

With its striking feature of luxury and extravagance, just one look and they could tell the place was mainly built with ultimate treasures, layered with dense Tier 12 arrays.

Even as overlords, they didn’t have the resources to be this extravagant.

“Welcome to my humble abode. Make yourselves at home,” Maximus smiled, seeing their reactions.

In his spare time, he hadn’t forgotten to enhance his residence.

Pouring all the plane origin and ultimate materials, he had in excess to the Shadow Castle; it had become one of the top hundred architectural wonders in the Aeon Plane.

“What a ‘humble’ abode. It’s indeed humble,” they muttered sarcastically, taking seats as they waited for Maximus to speak.

With Maximus’ intelligence, they were sure he already knew why they had come.

“Are you here to inquire about the current status of the Dark Disaster? I have complete information here,” Maximus said, not giving them what they wished for.

In a negotiation, the first to speak would always be at a disadvantage.

Knowing this, they played along with Maximus’s words, asking for all the information about the Dark Disaster and the Black Sigil.

Although they already had intelligence from their subordinates, seeing Maximus’s information gave them a much clearer picture of the situation.

As they talked about various topics, steering away from their real purpose, Lazo finally grew impatient.

“Enough. Where is the Plane Origin I heard about? Can you give us a sample?”
