The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 534: Spirit of Knowledge



In the Void Domain, the famous Dimensional Origin Library was closing.

Outside, various individuals who saw the announcement were shocked.

"What happened?! Why is the library closing?!"

"Did the library finally succumb to those forces?"

"Damn, and here I was, thinking I could finally access tier 10 knowledge without those stringent clauses!"

Sad and devastated, the group of individuals almost rioted upon hearing the library was about to close.

Although the Dimensional Origin Library cost much more than most libraries, it had a complete array of knowledge, filled with transcendent insights and high-tier techniques that were monopolized.

The ones angry the most about the Dimensional Origin Library closing were the Devourer, the wanted convicts of the Dimensional Alliance.

The Dimensional Origin Library was like their holy place.

No matter their identity or status, the library treated them fairly.

As quoted by the owner, Magnus, "Before knowledge, everything is insignificant."

More importantly, those enlightenment rooms!

These rooms were like a panacea that could help them master the river of laws.

Although super expensive, they provided a clear path to their future.

Just when the crowd was about to explode from anger, an Arcanum Scholar, a staff member of the library, came out.

"Please calm down, gentlemen. We are not closing but merely relocating."

"Huh? Is that it?!"

"You should've said so earlier! What a waste of my feelings!"

"Damn, there better be a discount for the inconvenience!"

Because the Dimensional Origin Library closed without any announcement, they thought it was over.

It seemed they were just overthinking.

"Where is it? Can we still get in?" a Devourer asked.

Due to their wanted status, they couldn't access most of the virtual domains in the Virtual Realm.

"Don't worry, folks. The Dimensional Origin Library will open in a private domain of our master, with no restrictions on entry regardless of strength or status."

"Then where is it? Where will it be?"

"In the Etherium Virtual Domain. It will open a month later…"

---

A month later, in the Etherium Virtual Domain:

Gustavo, a tier 10 potioneering alchemist, looked around the place, confirming if this was where the Dimensional Origin Library was.

Seeing a tower piercing the sky, he confirmed he was in the right place.

In the month since the library's closure, an earthquake no less than a major war between two tier 12 dimensions had occurred.

The Dimensional Origin Library had relocated to a private virtual domain!

For most individuals, this move didn't mean much besides teleporting to another virtual domain, wasting some time and money.

However, for most forces, opening in a private domain was akin to declaring a public identity.

Especially the Dimensional Origin Library, whose ownership had long been a mystery.

From breaching various patents and copyrights, selling monopolized knowledge, to becoming one of the top knowledge hotspots in the Virtual Realm, many were curious about who or what force controlled the library.

A month ago, hearing that the Dimensional Origin Library had relocated to the Etherium Virtual Domain caused a wave of shock.

The Shadowcrest family, a rising family said to be one among the top in the future, was revealed to be behind the Dimensional Origin Library.

Although many expected they would rise sooner or later, they didn't expect it to be this early.

Forget about the Dimensional Origin Library, which was causing a commotion; they were more shocked that Maximus was already a master of the river of law.

A private server is different from a dimensional server.

A dimensional server could be opened as long as one was a dimensional master.

However, to open a private server, one needed to become a master of law.

Using their various sources, they discovered that the primordial candidate Maximus Shadowcrest had become a master of the River of Knowledge at just the tier 10 realm.

This was more shocking than learning that he was behind the Dimensional Origin Library.

Becoming a master of the River of Law at such an early tier 10 realm was unprecedented in the history of the Dimensional Alliance.

Even Paragon, hailed as the No. 1 prodigy before Maximus, was still struggling on the edge of the River of Law.

Such monstrous talent and potential made them temporarily forget the atrocities of the Dimensional Origin Library for its rampant piracy.

As Gustavo navigated the Etherium Virtual Domain, he finally arrived at the Dimensional Origin Library.

Seeing the massive crowd entering and curious about the building, Gustavo quickly made his way inside.

[Welcome to the Tower of Knowledge. Which floor would you like to go to?]

"Floor? What's the price for different floors? What level of knowledge can I access?" Gustavo asked with interest.

[The tower has 161,803 floors. Each floor offers a corresponding amplification to comprehension. The access to knowledge is the same on each floor. Prices can be browsed through the catalog…]

[First Floor: 100 dimensional coins/day

Second Floor: 200 dimensional coins/day

Third Floor: 300 dimensional coins/day

…]

"Take me to the 100,001st floor," Gustavo said, paying 100 Origin coins.

Being a regular customer of the Dimensional Origin Library, he knew its usual tricks.

The more money you spent, the more conducive it was to learning.

As soon as Gustavo was teleported to the floor, he felt his mind become unprecedentedly clear, like a god who knew everything in the world.

"This—amazing!"

Gustavo felt his comprehension suddenly shoot up a hundredfold.

All haziness and confusion in his mind seemed to dissolve, with answers coming one after another.

Engulfed in the feeling, he couldn't help but sit down and sort through his thoughts.

A day later, a notification broke his concentration.

[Your stay in the library will end in 1 minute. Please pay before the due date or leave the premises.]

"A day has already passed?!"

He felt like only a few minutes had gone by!

However, feeling the knowledge in his mind almost sorted, he knew the time had indeed passed.

Paying 1,000 Origin coins to extend his stay for ten days, he couldn't help but feel his heart ache.

1,000 Origin coins!

For a tier 10 weakling like him, this was already an enormous wealth spanning a few generations.

Spending it all at once made him quickly regret his impulsive decision.

"However, it's worth it. Just staying here is worth the investment," he hypnotized himself to avoid regretting his action.

A hundredfold comprehension rate didn't just make his understanding a hundred times faster but also a hundred times clearer and more logical.

A bottleneck he had been struggling, an incomprehensible piece of knowledge, a problem he had been pondering could all be solved in a few minutes.

Staying in such a place would be like having the wisdom of god knowing anything and everything.

"As expected of the River of Knowledge. Is this what it feels like to be on the path of knowledge?"

"No, the path of knowledge is not suitable for me!" He hurriedly shook his head.

The path of knowledge didn't offer any combat ability.

To save his dimension from oppression, he needed to develop powerful combat abilities.

Remembering what he came here for, Gustavo looked around, searching for books.

"Huh? Where do I find them?"

Around him was a vast, empty space.

Because he was on a higher floor and the library had just opened, no one was in sight.

There was also no librarian he could ask about finding the book he wanted.

[Mr. Gustavo, you need not worry. Simply call out the name of the knowledge you seek, and it will appear before you.]

"Who are you? How do you know my name?" Gustavo frowned.

In the virtual realm, his name was Gust, a lone potion-making alchemist.

To hide from his enemies, Gustavo didn't dare to use his real name.

[I am the Spirit of Knowledge, the guiding spirit of this library. I am the embodiment of knowledge itself. Knowing your name is only natural.]

"Is that so…" Gustavo squinted, staying alert.

After a few moments of silence, contemplating his situation, Gustavo could only sigh.

What could he do? He had already paid, and even if he were allowed to leave, there was no way he would waste the 1,000 Origin coins he had just spent.

"Since you can bring me anything I want, bring all the tier 10 awakening potion recipes."

With his request, a sea of books flew around him.

"Is this all the tier 10 awakening potion recipes?" Gustavo gulped.

Even with a hundredfold comprehension, reading all these books would take him thousands of years.

"Could you filter it?"

[Yes.]

"Then…"

Soon, Gustavo racked his brain, trying to filter the tier 10 awakening potion recipes into a manageable selection.

After several minutes of struggle, thinking of all the possible keywords to narrow the books, Gustavo finally slumped.

Despite his hard work, millions of books were still floating around him.

[Please ask a more specific question. For example, what purpose does the potion serve?] the Spirit of Knowledge suggested.

"A more specific question?" Gustavo sighed.

It wasn't that he couldn't, but he didn't dare.

Although he didn't know how this spirit knew his name, he was wary of divulging more information.

[Gustavo, the dimensional master of the Crystal Blue Dimension, affiliation: none, opposition: Crystal Nome Civilization.]

"You! How do you know?!"

[I am the embodiment of the River of Knowledge. Whether it be the past or the present, all information in the Aeon Plane can be known by me.]
