Chapter 684: Unknown Danger
While Maximus hurried toward his goal, thousands of other talents also entered the Primordial Origin Realm.
However, unlike Maximus, who could calm down before dazzling treasures, most became dazed, frantically grabbing each one they could find, forgetting their goal.
Among the talents, only Sira, Nyx, Zar, and Paragon quickly got the hang of it after being in a daze for a few years.
As time hit the hundred-year mark, the members of the Shadowcrest family finally snapped out of it.
Collecting over a dozen treasures, they finally noticed the time flashing by.
"This is not good!"
Being fooled by the Primordial Origin Realm, they forgot their initial goal.
If not for the derived origin manual, being independent and capable of telling them the time, they might have succumbed to pleasure until the end.
Fortunately, being awake and aware of the danger, they began to concentrate, spreading their consciousness and letting themselves be dragged by the bubble that had the most affinity to them.
Soon, time began to pass.
As three thousand years hit the clock, all the million talents had entered the Primordial Origin Realm.
Some also woke up, realizing the dangers of the place.
Finding a seed of law, they continued to sink to the bottom, ignoring everything.
Meanwhile, as Maximus was sinking, his heart began to throb.
"What is this? Danger?"
The deeper he got, the more dangerous he felt.
It was as if a shark was circling its prey, just waiting for him to fall into its mouth.
Unfortunately, not having information about the place, he could only remain alert.
Soon, another thousand years passed when suddenly, he felt a huge force charging toward him.
"An attack?"
Although he couldn't see in the darkness, he could still feel. Although he was powerless, he could still move.
Using his utmost will, he moved his body to dodge, gripping the neck of the attacker tightly.
Blop~
Like a bubble popping, the attacker didn't have much resistance and disintegrated.
"What was that?"
Not getting any feedback, Maximus couldn't help but frown.
Soon, as Maximus sank deeper and deeper, he began to encounter more and more bubble monsters.
"Are these the past talents that assimilated here?" he guessed.
Unfortunately, neither the path of law, physique, nor ultimate treasure worked in this place.
With no way to confirm things, Maximus could only be cautious on his way down.

Finally, nine thousand years after he came to the Primordial Origin Realm, Maximus located the Seed of Origin.

[Seed of Origin]
"Found it!"
Finding his goal, Maximus felt unprecedented excitement!
Five thousand years!
Since he encountered those bubble monsters, they were like endless pests that wouldn't leave.
These past five thousand years were like silent hell, where he could be killed anytime.
The closer he was to the Seed of Origin, the denser and stronger the bubble monsters became.
If not for the solidity of his core of origin, he might have already succumbed to this place.
"Now I just need to absorb this and break through to Tier 11."
A seed of law can't be taken out of the Primordial Origin Realm.
Once it comes in contact with the void, it would break, like a deep-sea creature exploding once it ascends to the shore.
Breaking through to the Tier 11 realm was the only way out of this special place.
Even the Overlords could only open the Primordial Origin Realm after paying a huge price, much less create a path of exit.
Without any strength, they could only follow the rules of the place and advance to the Tier 11 realm to be kicked out.
Fortunately, those who came here were the top talents of the Aeon Plane. Breaking through to the Tier 11 realm was merely a matter of thought.
Grasping the Seed of Origin, Maximus hurriedly merged it into his body.
Although the place seemed peaceful, Maximus had a feeling something was about to happen.
In the past, he thought it was the bubble monsters that were causing it.
However, as he killed more and more of them, there was no way they could be the cause.
"I hope they also found what they were looking for…" Maximus thought one last time as he absorbed the Seed of Origin.
---
On the other side, as Maximus wished, all his family members had long since found the seed of law they were suited for.
Unlike the Seed of Origin, which was at the deepest part of the Primordial Origin Realm, the seeds of law suitable for them were not so deep.
Absorbing the seeds of law for hundreds of years, it was only a matter of time before they could merge them and build an ultimate foundation.
Meanwhile, being the first to find his seed of law, Paragon reached a critical juncture to set up an ultimate foundation.
"Condense!"
Condensing his path of law and the seed of law, Paragon began to advance to the Tier 11 realm.
Boom!
Completing the transition, Paragon felt unprecedented power, as if a beast had broken free from its shackles.
"I finally condensed the ultimate foundation!"
However, before Paragon could celebrate, he felt an inviolable tug pulling him into the unknown.
"Kicking me out already?"
Thinking he was merely being kicked out of the Primordial Origin Realm, Paragon relaxed.
But as he opened his eyes, astonishment and fear overtook him.
"This is—The Chaotic Void?!"
"How could I be in the Chaotic Void?!"
Feeling the corrosive power beginning to whittle away at his body, Paragon began to sweat heavily.
Looking around, he saw a few top talents of the Aeon Plane now floating lifelessly in the void.
"Enemy?!"
Although a Tier 11 individual couldn't remain in the Chaotic Void indefinitely, they could at least survive for a few thousand years.
Seeing them dead and lifeless, Paragon could only conclude that there was an enemy.
Swoosh~
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a shadowy attack charged at his back.
Bang!
Despite being alert, Paragon couldn't dodge the attack, flying backward like a ragdoll.
Cough~
"This- How could this thing appear here?!"
