Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

The nine stars inside his body blazed as one, and his aura surged violently upward. The illusory star palace behind him shone brighter, and the nine massive stars encircling the throne poured streams of light down into Orion’s body. His skin split in several places under the pressure, yet he did not stop.

Blood ran down his arms, and even that blood glimmered with faint starlight. His eyes became twin stars, and the crown of starlight reappeared above his head, far clearer than it had been before.

”Nine Star Sovereign Body.”

His voice dropped deeper.

”Full Star Convergence.”

Boom!

The entire stage shuddered beneath the clash of two Pseudo Cosmic Paths. On one side, the Void Origin Realm spread outward as a hollow world that erased existence itself. On the other, the Nine Star Sovereign Body had transformed Orion into a vessel carrying all nine stars at once.

Orion moved, and this time his speed was terrifying. He crossed the field like a star plunging through empty space. The Void Origin Realm began erasing the star force around him the instant he entered it, but the nine stars within his body kept replenishing what was lost.

Every step burned through his stamina, every punch consumed the power circulating through his organs and bones, and every shift of star force tore at his meridians, yet Orion pressed forward without a moment’s hesitation.

Revona raised both hands, and ripples of void origin spread outward like invisible waves. Orion punched through the first wave and lost half the star power in his fist, so he changed stars. He stepped through the second wave and his left leg went numb as the void devoured the force inside it, so he changed again. He pushed into the third wave and struck.

Boom!

Revona blocked with both arms, but the impact shoved her backward, and a crack split the hollow space behind her.

The spectators were stunned.

”He is fighting inside her Pseudo Cosmic Path!”

”His star power keeps being erased, but he keeps replacing it!”

”This is insane!”

”Both of them are burning through their power far too fast!”

Inside the Eternal Hourglass, the top geniuses watched without blinking.

Damian Voss’s eyes were cold and sharp. ”Orion is forcing his way through by overloading the gap between her erasure and his replenishment.”

Kaiden Voidmere gave a slight nod. ”But that method costs him too much. The Void Origin Realm is multiplying the price of every single attack.”

Ervin’s gaze ran deep. ”If he cannot break through soon, he will be the one to collapse first.”

Rakan Thorne clenched his fists, his grin wild yet serious. ”Even so, that star bastard is amazing.”

Max said nothing. He could see everything the others saw, and more besides. Orion’s Pseudo Cosmic Path was among the strongest paths he had witnessed in the entire conference. It had turned a long-range star genius into a supreme close combat monster, and even inside Revona’s Void Origin Realm, Orion was still forcing her back one step at a time.

But Revona’s path was perfectly suited to bleeding him dry. Every strike Orion threw was partially erased before it could land, every movement demanded more power than it normally would, and every attempt to change stars grew harder beneath the pressure of that origin emptiness.

Yet Orion kept going. He struck Revona’s shoulder and broke through her void guard. Her palm landed on his chest and erased a great slab of his star armor, tearing open the flesh beneath it. He answered with a Third Star Elbow that cut across her side and scattered blood through the air.

She turned the Void Origin Realm on his right leg, swallowed the force within it, and very nearly brought him down. He shifted to the Sixth Star and slammed both fists downward, forcing her onto one knee for the length of a breath. She lifted her eyes, and the void around him surged upward, stripping three layers of star force from his body at once.

Orion coughed blood. Then he smiled.

”Not enough.”

He stepped in again.

The battle climbed to a terrifying intensity. The stage became a place where stars were born and erased with every passing second. Star fists detonated and vanished, and waves of void spread and cracked. Orion’s body was soon covered in wounds, with his armor broken, his hair in disarray, and blood running down his forehead into one eye.

Revona had not escaped unharmed either. Blood stained her sleeves, her breathing had grown heavy, and the hollow world behind her shuddered several times under Orion’s relentless assault.

Neither of them stopped, and neither surrendered. Orion drove Revona to the brink by endlessly changing the star circulating through his body, forcing her Void Origin Eyes to chase one force after another.

Revona drove Orion to the brink by expanding the Void Origin Realm until every step he took cost him more strength than an ordinary full-power attack. Their Pseudo Cosmic Paths collided in a way that made countless spectators forget how to breathe.

Then, at last, Orion found one more opening. Revona’s gaze had locked onto the Seventh Star burning in his blood, and the Void Origin Realm had begun erasing the star force in his veins. In that moment, Orion abruptly shifted everything into the Ninth Star Crown above his head, and for a fraction of a breath, Revona’s nullification lagged behind.

Orion appeared in front of her.

”Nine Star Sovereign Body. Celestial Crown Breaker.”

His fist descended with all nine stars compressed into a single crown-shaped strike. Revona’s eyes widened slightly, and for the first time, she could not fully erase it in time.

Boom!

The strike landed square against her chest. Revona was hurled backward with blood spilling from her lips, and her body slammed into the far side of the barrier. The entire arena shook, and the hollow world behind her flickered violently.

The Nine Star Court went mad with cheering, but Orion did not celebrate. He dropped to one knee, coughing blood onto the fractured stage while his right arm trembled beyond his control. That single strike had very nearly emptied him.

Across from him, Revona slowly pushed herself away from the barrier. Her face was pale, and the front of her clothes was soaked with blood. The Void Origin Realm behind her had dimmed, but it had not collapsed.

Orion lifted his head, saw it still standing, and a bitter smile crossed his face. ”You endured even that?”

Revona wiped the blood from her lips. ”Barely.”

Orion laughed once, though the laugh quickly broke apart into another cough. He forced himself back to his feet as the nine stars within his body flickered. One of them dimmed, then another, and then a third.

Revona regarded him calmly, though her own breathing had grown unsteady. ”You are exhausted.”

Orion smiled, and strangely enough, that smile was brighter than it had been all battle. Blood still ran from the corner of his mouth, several wounds across his arms and chest gaped deep enough to expose the flesh beneath his broken armor, and the star lines tracing his body had dimmed to an unstable flicker, yet he looked as though none of it mattered to him in the slightest.

”Almost,” he said lightly.

”Not almost,” Revona replied. ”You are at your limit.”
