Chapter 1012 Implanting the seed of creation
Max was a changed man the moment he stepped out of the dark realm and returned to the Rajput Capital.
Gone were his hesitations, gone were the shackles that bound him, as the man that came out was the Max of old who was singularly focused on achieving his goals.
The seed of destruction's influence still ran rampant in his consciousness as he was constantly hounded by its voice in his head with any deterioration in his mental health holding the potential to result in a relapse of control.
However, instead of working on his mental health and mastering one seed first, Max decided to double down as he realised that it was only poison that cut poison and that the best and most effective solution to neutralise the seed of destruction's influence in his actions was for him to incorporate the power of the seed of creation within his body as well.
The seed of creation was a treasure that even the perfect warrior was after as the power it held was unfathomable.
In the universe, there was no force that could defy fate, however, the closest thing to being a miracle force was the power of creation.
While the seed of destruction enabled one to strip down any form of energy to its most basic form, the seed of creation could shape energy into any form that one willed it to be.
Using its power Max could create planets, inanimate bodies and even rare metals and resources provided that he had sufficient energy to fund the process.
Objectively, it was easier to destroy a planet than to create one because to create a planet out of nothing, one needed to pour enough energy to materialise every rock, every last grain of sand inside the planet, whereas destroying it was much simpler.
However, it wasn't theoretically impossible and an individual like Max could achieve it.
Despite these advantages, the challenge that Max had to actually focus on was to use the power of the seed of creation in synergy with the seed of destruction to craft for himself the ultimate body capable of fighting the perfect warrior on level terms.
While learning the power of the seeds and applying them in combat could prove to be effective, his primary goal was to use them to strengthen his body after witnessing just how strong the perfect warrior's defence was.
Initially, his plan to ascend to the celestial realm in ten years needed him to constantly divert focus towards levelling and hitting the level cap for tier8, however, with him suddenly gaining a lot of levels for killing the perfect warrior's clone, that schedule had been relaxed in the short term, giving him an opportunity to focus singularly on crafting his body.
" Queen, what is the probability that by mixing conflicting energies in my body I'll either lose my mind or die?" Max asked as he was back inside his isolated training room staring at the bright golden seed of creation.
" It's 40% for losing your mind and 60% to die from internal poisoning by mixing conflicting energies" The queen said as she gave Max rather worrying odds for trying to mix two conflicting energies in his body.
Max had already made up his mind to take-in the seed of creation much to the frustration of all his wives who strongly advised Max against going into isolation in the short term.
With the perfect warrior incident, the family was thrown into an imbalance and they wanted Max to stay around for longer and provide everyone with emotional and mental support however Max declined.
Barely six hours after his return he rushed straight into his isolated training chamber having already made up his mind to master the seed of creation.
" Very well proceed with the surgery, if worse comes to worst we can always remove both seeds and try again" Max said as he informed the universal queen to prepare for surgery and implant the seed of creation within his body as well.
Undoubtedly it was a rash decision, however, Max had faith in his own mental fortitude to be able to travel through this mess.
The queen, as instructed by Max , proceeded to bind and restrict Max just like she did when he wanted to implant the seed of destruction and began with the implantation procedure.
The seed of creation showed no reaction to her touch as despite being highly corrosive it did not affect the queen's state of mind as she proceeded to cut open Max's back and plant it beside his second kidney, or at least attempted to.
From the second that the seed came in close vicinity to Max's body, the seed of destruction and it's destructive aura within Max's body strongly resisted the entry of the seed of creation as it let out a strong pulse of destructive aura that sliced the queen's surgery tentacle clean off forcing her to drop the seed of creation and fail with the procedure as Max's body healed back up.
Max felt a violent wave of instructions flood his mind as the seed of destruction tried to force a hostile takeover of his consciousness.
The seed of destruction had detected it's natural opponent and just like a sentient being it showed strong reaction to its entry.
Max could only barely keep it in check while the queen tried again but once more it reacted equally violently.
This time around the queen knew exactly what to expect and was prepared for the destructive aura surge and had created various defensive spells around her body beforehand to withstand it's effects.
The surgery was extremely difficult and with the seed of destruction in protest it became even harder, however, from the moment when the queen placed the seed of creation within Max's body, the seed of destruction's aura was instantly suppressed as Max felt a new second voice flood his head.
" Quick…. Knock me out- activate the contingency plan" he said as the queen immediately knocked him out and once again tossed him into the dark realm as Max feared losing control.
