Soon, time began to pass…

After discovering his deficiencies, Maximus began working on his problems, solving each issue one after another.

With his plane-level ability True Path, the Absolute of Knowledge, and a vast arsenal of ultimate treasures that enhanced his deduction ability, he quickly filled the holes he had found.

However, creating an automated production machine capable of forging a Ring of Origin was still not an easy task.

To produce a Ring of Origin, the machine had to simulate his abilities and process materials under the influence of the Absolute of Knowledge.

Thus, despite Maximus’ unhindered deduction, he still encountered various obstacles that slowed the machine’s development.

It wasn’t until 25,000 years later that he finally completed the first prototype.

Looking at the marvelous creation before him, Maximus still couldn’t believe it.

“I’ve created it…”

Truthfully, even with the Space-Time Lab, Maximus hadn’t been confident he could build the machine this quickly.

He had thought it would take at least hundreds of thousands of years or even millions.

But it seemed that his foundation, knowledge, materials, and various means were all perfectly aligned, allowing him to create such a heaven-defying machine ahead of time.

If this machine worked, it would open an unprecedented path.

All his redundant, monotonous, and repetitive tasks could now be automated.

From Ether Devices, the Void Outpost, and Dark Plane Blasters, even merging Seeds of Path into the Source of Knowledge.

If he succeeded, Maximus would truly be free, growing stronger even without lifting a finger.

There was also the advantage of efficiency. If Ether Device production could be automated, the members of the Order of Maxim could free their hands to do more important things.

If he automated the production of the Void Outpost and Dark Plane Blasters, they could quickly break through the Dark Disaster and wipe it out instantly.

If he automated the integration of Seeds of Path, ultimate treasures, and ultimate materials into the Source of Knowledge, his family would no longer need to work so hard.

It could even accelerate his progress, leaving everyone far behind.

Unfortunately, this was all still a grand dream. Even if he had the means to create them, he didn’t yet have the time.

His current priorities were the Automated Ring of Origin Production Machine, optimization of the micro-surveillance bots, and the creation of Ether Devices that could absorb plane origin.

While branching into these other paths could be beneficial or even revolutionary, he had to finish the Trial of Origin first.

The trial to win the number one architecture, the Atrium of Law, could begin anytime.

This trial, the race to the throne of the Aeon Plane, was more important than anything else, even the Dark Disaster.

Calming his mind, Maximus focused on the machine before him.

“I hope this works…”

Taking out origin energy, strands of causality, and various other materials, Maximus began operating the machine to craft a Tier 10 Ring of Origin.

“Eve, connect my Path of Law to the device using the Observation Tower.”

Isolated by the Origin of Law of the Aeon Plane, he had to manually link his Path of Law to the machine. Otherwise, it wouldn’t function.

“On it…”

Soon, as the humongous device began to run and various runes and arrays lit up, strands of his Path of Law carrying the influence of the Seed of the Absolute of Creation began to materialize, printing an inconspicuous ring.

“Just a few seconds, not bad!”

Although it was nothing compared to his own production speed, which allowed him to create millions of Tier 10 Rings of Origin per second, Maximus still gave credit to the machine.

After all, it was automatic; he didn’t need to do anything.

As long as he created millions of these machines, the issue of efficiency would no longer be a problem.

The only issue was cost. Just the materials and energy required to create a single Ring of Origin were already ten times more expensive.

Moreover, building the production machine itself had cost him hundreds of ultimate materials.

To create a million such machines, Maximus estimated he would need to invest hundreds of millions of materials.

Fortunately, most of the ultimate materials he needed could be purified from the bodies of dark beasts.

Otherwise, no matter how convenient these machines were, Maximus wouldn’t waste his resources to build them.

After all, the innate ultimate treasures he got from the Overlords only amounted to a few billion.

Although that sounded like a lot, it wasn’t enough to spend in such a wasteful manner.

Examining the Ring of Origin, Maximus didn’t notice any discrepancies.

“Not bad, just like the original,” Maximus smiled, finally confirming the success of his creation.

Even though he had simulated it countless times, holding the actual product in his hand was a different feeling.

“You’re amazing! I didn’t expect you’d be able to automate the creation of such a treasure!” Eve praised, clearly impressed by Maximus’s success.

“This is also thanks to your help. I didn’t expect you to be such a knowledgeable spirit,” Maximus replied sincerely.

Aside from Zero, the spirit that managed the entire Virtual Realm, Eve was the only other spirit he had met who could rival or even surpass the Absolutes.

“How about working for me after this? I promise I can help you advance to the Overlord Realm.”

Eve seemed like a perfect assistant, capable of handling every task.

With her help, his overall efficiency had increased by 20 to 30 percent.

“I’m sorry, but I’ve already pledged my loyalty to Overlord Frir. No offer could ever shake my heart,” Eve said seriously, without a hint of hesitation.

Although advancing to the Overlord Realm was tempting, Eve still chose her master.

“What a pity…”

Spirits could never advance to the Overlord Realm.

It wasn’t that they were restricted by rules, but rather limited by potential. Reaching the Absolute Realm was already the highest they could achieve, even with all kinds of resources.

If not for Maximus’s confidence in the True Path and Plane Origin, he wouldn’t have dared to make such a promise.

“How about I ask your master what he thinks?” Maximus joked, thinking of approaching Frir directly.

“Please don’t do that. I’ve been with my master for countless epochs. I’m sure he would never sell me out.”

“Oh, if you say so…”
