Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100

Chapter 1465  Reaching the Limit!

Max advanced relentlessly.

He crossed the nineteenth layer, then the twentieth.

Outside the dome, the elders had long since lost the ability to react with coherent speech. The twentieth layer had always been regarded as the domain of peak inner disciples. Yet Max passed it without pause.

When he entered the twenty first layer, the final remaining bud could no longer contain the immense energy it had accumulated from the higher domains.

As Max stepped deeper into the twenty first layer, the bud cracked open and condensed into the fifth dark red fruit.

The transformation completed the flame branch.

Five fruits now hung in solemn symmetry, each containing refined chaotic flame laws drawn from successive layers of the Path to Eternal Flames.

Max stood within the twenty first layer, surrounded by sovereign flames that burned with terrifying authority. Yet his aura remained steady, supported by his strengthened physique and the five matured fruits stabilizing the Chaos Tree.

The trial had long since surpassed legend.

And still, he stood unbroken.

”The pressure here is the strongest,” Max muttered as he stood within the twenty first layer, drawing in slow and steady breaths. The flames surrounding him were no longer merely oppressive. They felt absolute. Each strand of chaotic flame law carried a weight that pressed against his body and spirit alike, testing the integrity of his foundation.

”I do not think I can go much farther from here.”

He did not say it with frustration. He said it with clarity.

The first vein of the Seven Divine Veins still pulsed within him, reinforcing his physique. The five dark red fruits hung heavily upon the flame branch of the Chaos Tree, each one stabilizing his internal structure and granting him extraordinary resistance. Yet even with these advantages, the twenty first layer was pushing him toward his threshold.

The flames here did not merely burn. They judged. They weighed his existence and found its limits.

Max lifted his gaze briefly toward the deeper expanse of the Path. Beyond the twenty first layer, the oppressive aura thickened further. It felt distant yet suffocating, like a mountain range of invisible authority rising ahead.

He wanted to reach the thirty sixth layer.

He wanted to see the peak of the Path to Eternal Flames, to understand the full extent of what this ancient trial contained.

But desire did not override reality.

With his current cultivation at the first level of the Rebirth Realm, advancing beyond the twenty first layer without the overwhelming support of the Chaos Tree would be reckless. Even with the Chaos Tree, the pressure here was already near his limit.

Understanding this, Max slowly lowered himself to the ground and sat cross legged.

The sovereign flames continued to swirl around him, but his aura stabilized as he withdrew his focus inward.

The Path to Eternal Flames was not merely a ladder of endurance. It was a training ground. It existed so that true disciples and core disciples could temper themselves and comprehend a cosmic path. Each layer carried refined flame laws meant to guide those who could perceive them.

Max closed his eyes.

He allowed the oppressive flames to press against him while his consciousness expanded outward, touching the intricate structure of the chaotic flame laws within the twenty first layer. These were no longer fragmented concepts. They were layered, interconnected, forming a greater structure that hinted at something beyond simple flame mastery.

He began to analyze them carefully.

The chaotic flames here were not merely destructive. They carried a sense of order within their chaos, a rhythm hidden beneath their fury. It was as though they embodied a path that transcended ordinary flame comprehension.

Max understood that this was the true purpose of the trial.

To temper the body was secondary.

To comprehend the cosmic path embedded within the flames was the true reward.

He immersed himself fully.

Whether this cosmic path was suitable for him or not remained to be seen. But he would not leave without understanding what the Path to Eternal Flames had to offer.

Within the twenty first layer, surrounded by sovereign fire, Max began his true comprehension.

When the projection showed Max sitting down within the twenty first layer instead of continuing forward, the long standing tension on the viewing platform finally shifted.

For the first time since he began his unstoppable ascent from the thirteenth layer onward, he had stopped.

”He finally reached his limits?” Victor Veron exhaled slowly as he spoke, the weight in his voice carrying both relief and lingering disbelief. His gaze remained fixed on the projection, where Max sat cross legged amid the sovereign flames of the twenty first layer. ”I must admit, I did not know where his limit would appear anymore.”

Henry Lumin nodded faintly, his expression still solemn. ”From the thirteenth layer all the way to the twenty first, he crossed them one after another. Each time we thought this would be the end, he stepped beyond.”

Lilith Carolʼs eyes were steady, though her tone carried quiet awe. ”We anticipated his limit at the twelfth. Then at the thirteenth. Then perhaps the fifteenth. Yet he continued climbing as if the Path itself were unfolding before him.”

An elder nearby sighed deeply. ”When he entered the twentieth layer, I believed that was the absolute boundary. That layer is the acknowledged limit for inner disciples in the Law Awakening Realm. Yet he did not stop there.”

Another elder shook his head slowly. ”The way he accelerated from the thirteenth to the twenty first layer left us no room to breathe. Every prediction we made was shattered.”

The disciples below were no less overwhelmed.

”So this is his limit?” one of them asked quietly.

Victor Veron clasped his hands behind his back and studied the projection carefully. ”There is no shame in reaching oneʼs limit. The twenty first layer is already beyond any outer disciple in our clanʼs recorded history.”

Henry Lumin spoke with measured respect. ”Even the greatest geniuses of previous generations could not approach this depth at the Rebirth Realm. The fact that he sits calmly at the twenty first layer speaks volumes about his foundation.”

Lilith Carol added softly, ”And he does not appear exhausted. He is not collapsing. He has chosen to stop.”

That observation caused a subtle shift in the atmosphere.

Matthew Grimes, who had been silent, finally spoke. ”He understands his boundary. He is not pushing recklessly. Instead, he is using the twenty first layer as a place of comprehension.”

The earlier frenzy of disbelief had transformed into something quieter, heavier.

Max had not been ejected.

He had not been defeated.

He had simply recognized the current limit of his cultivation and chosen to cultivate within it.

After watching him break every expectation from the twelfth layer onward, the gathered elders and family heads no longer dared to define his future ceiling.

The projection continued to show Max seated calmly within the twenty first layer, flames swirling around him like obedient servants.
