Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Chapter 1411  Gathering!

Dimension of Time.

Max finally stopped practicing his inheritance techniques, his chest rising and falling steadily as sweat covered his entire body. Even in his Rebirth Realm physique, the strain of what he had been doing was undeniable. He had done exactly what he set out to do.

One by one, he had entered the Inheritance Chambers of the Flame, Ice, and Sword dimensions, selecting the highest level inheritance techniques currently accessible to him and imprinting them deeply into his understanding.

The days that followed were spent entirely within the Dimension of Time. What passed as only a few days outside had amounted to thousands of years of repeated practice within that timeless space.

Every movement had been refined, every mistake corrected, and every nuance carved into instinct. He had pushed himself relentlessly, not allowing even a moment of complacency, because he knew the Thirty Six Hall Grand Trial would not forgive weakness.

Now, a full week had passed in the outside world, and the day of the trial had arrived.

"Four Divine Beasts Manifestation is far more difficult to master than Ice God Hand and Thousand Divine Swords," Max muttered as he wiped the sweat from his brow, mentally reviewing his progress.

Among the three inheritance techniques he had obtained, the flame technique demanded the most from him. It was not simply about power, but control, balance, and resonance with multiple divine manifestations at once. In comparison, Ice God Hand and Thousand Divine Swords were far more straightforward, brutal in their own way, yet easier to bring under command.

Four Divine Beasts Manifestation, Ice God Hand, and Thousand Divine Swords were now all firmly etched into his foundation, even if one of them still resisted complete mastery.

"Anyway, it is time to head to the central hub of the Thirty Third Hall," Max muttered as he straightened his posture.

With that, he exited the Dimension of Time and left his room.

The moment he stepped outside, he was greeted by movement in every direction. Disciples were streaming through the corridors, all heading toward the same destination. Some wore confident expressions, others were tense and silent, while a few radiated barely concealed excitement.

Max blended into the flow without drawing attention to himself, moving alongside them toward the heart of the hall.

Not long after, he arrived at the central hub of the Thirty Third Hall.

The sight before him was overwhelming. The vast open space was already packed with disciples of all ages and backgrounds, filling the area with noise, conversation, and restless energy.

Max estimated that there were thousands present, if not more. In the Divine Realm, numbers like this were not unusual, especially for an event as significant as the Thirty Six Hall Grand Trial.

"Max, you are here too."

The familiar voice made him turn. Carl and Laura were approaching him from the side. They were not alone. Three additional individuals walked with them, each carrying an aura that was calm, confident, and clearly not ordinary among outer disciples.

Max's eyes lingered on them briefly, already gauging their strength as the atmosphere around the hub continued to grow heavier with anticipation. 'Peak of Rebirth Realm...all of them.'

"Carl and Laura, it is good to see both of you here," Max said warmly as he greeted them, his gaze shifting naturally toward the three individuals standing beside them.

Laura stepped forward and gestured toward the group with a composed expression. "These three are Simon, who is ranked sixth, Drisco, who is ranked seventh, and Flora, who holds the tenth rank among the outer disciples of the Thirty Third Hall."

"I am pleased to meet all of you," Max said with a bright and unguarded smile.

Simon and Drisco merely glanced at him before giving brief nods of acknowledgment, their expressions calm but measured. Flora, on the other hand, looked at Max with unconcealed curiosity, her eyes lingering on him as if she were trying to see through something deeper than his surface demeanor, though she said nothing.

Max then turned his attention back to Carl and Laura, a thoughtful look crossing his face. "If they are ranked that high, then you two must be near the top as well, right?"

Carl smiled faintly before answering, his tone relaxed but confident. "I am ranked fourth among the outer disciples of the Thirty Third Hall, and Laura is ranked fifth."

"Fourth and fifth in the outer disciple rankings," Max repeated with a nod of approval. "That is impressive. You two must be quite strong."

As the words left his mouth, another thought surfaced in his mind, and he asked it without hesitation. "What about the top three?"

"They will arrive soon," Laura replied, her lips curving into a smile that did not quite carry warmth. "The gathering has only just begun."

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Max asked with a wry smile, sensing that there was something unspoken behind their expressions.

Laura's smile widened further, a faint glint of amusement flashing in her eyes as she replied, "Things are definitely going to get interesting once the top three show up."

Carl nodded in agreement, his expression carrying a hint of sympathy mixed with quiet anticipation.

"Am I missing something here?" Max asked, glancing between the two of them as his curiosity deepened.

Carl let out a small chuckle before explaining patiently. "By now, everyone in the Thirty Third Hall knows that you are a direct disciple of Elder Virelia. The top three outer disciples of this hall have been striving for years to be taken in by an elder, and more than anything, they all set their sights on Elder Virelia because her teaching methods are considered the best in the entire hall."

He paused briefly before continuing, his tone turning slightly serious. "Then you appeared out of nowhere and became her disciple almost overnight. Now think about it for a moment. What do you think will happen when the disciple who was personally chosen by Elder Virelia finally comes face to face with the three disciples who have been chasing that same position for years?"
