Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100 Chapter 1464 Racing Through The Trial!
Previously on Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100...
In the fourteenth layer, heavy flames bore down as if enforcing a divine mandate from above. The chaotic flame laws in this place were honed to an incredible level, circulating in orderly flows that aimed to smash anything undeserving of their territory. Still, Max moved ahead with a firm, resolute rhythm. His footsteps showed no haste or uncertainty. They conveyed a subtle assurance.
The two current buds on the Chaos Tree's flame branch throbbed steadily while taking in the ambient energy. The polished flame laws from the fourteenth layer flowed inside nonstop, swallowed and squeezed without any pushback. Each time Max advanced a step, the pressure that ought to have built up actually lessened a touch around his form.
Upon hitting the midpoint of the fourteenth layer, the fourth leaf could no longer handle the overload of energy it had gathered.
A profound throb echoed through his internal realm.
The fourth leaf expanded noticeably before tearing apart at its core. A fresh bud sprouted from inside, shining with a rich scarlet glow that matched the rest. As soon as it appeared, the intake rate spiked sharply.
The four developing points operated in perfect sync.
The nearby chaotic flame laws curved oddly toward Max, like pulled by unseen force. The smothering streams that had once opposed him now turned toward the inside, processed and densified by the Chaos Tree.
Max sensed the change right away.
The burden on his frame eased more.
His pace quickened.
The fires that had once blocked him now seemed to yield in front of him, diminished by the unyielding suction coming from his core.
Swish.
His silhouette blurred while he traversed the leftover span of the fourteenth layer with measured speedup. The outer projection wavered as he rushed on, escaping the heavy realm behind.
He entered the fifteenth layer without delay.
The fires in that layer appeared murkier, denser, and charged with greater dominion. The chaotic flame laws had solidified into nearly solid forms, creating unseen walls that would demolish typical cultivators.
But Max kept going.
He pressed onward.
Inside him, the three buds throbbed with force, pulling in the fifteenth layer's energy at an alarming speed. The Chaos Tree's flame branch shone brightly, its form steadying amid the huge rush of processed laws.
Before long, the fifth and last leaf hit its breaking point.
The ongoing energy intake drove it past fullness. It shook fiercely before bursting open, spawning the ultimate bud.
The instant it took shape, the air near Max altered anew.
With four vibrant buds collaborating with the existing ripe dark red fruit, the drawing speed soared to new heights. The fifteenth layer's chaotic flame laws were drained inside quicker than before. The suffocating force that marked the layer faded clearly close to him.
Max's velocity kept climbing, as if the Path to Eternal Flames had stopped being a challenge and turned into a smooth path built for his rise. Every stride through the fifteenth layer grew easier than the previous. The four lively buds on the flame branch consumed the processed energy without mercy, diluting the heavy streams around him as his power drove ahead unchecked.
In mere heartbeats instead of vast distances, he finished the fifteenth layer and moved into the sixteenth.
The sixteenth layer's flames blazed with intensified command. The chaotic flame laws had formed into controlled floods that bore down on his body from all sides. However, his rhythm stayed steady. The four buds beat together, hauling in the nearby might at a scary tempo. The sixteenth layer's refined energy streamed inside in dense flows, squeezed and cleansed by the Chaos Tree.
Max proceeded firmly until arriving at the core of the sixteenth layer.
Right as he neared the edge, a deep transformation happened in his depths.
The second bud quaked hard. Its outer layer fractured with vivid crimson radiance, and the vast energy it held rushed in for the last surge. Then it solidified.
The bud changed into a dark red fruit, matching the first in shape but emitting its unique potent command. The flame branch now supported two fruits, laden with distilled chaotic flame laws.
"Nice," Max said with a subtle grin. "Only three more, and this trial is finished for me."
He moved ahead into the seventeenth layer.
The force there weighed much more. The chaotic flame laws acted fiercer, more commanding in their dominance. Still, now that the second bud had ripened into a fruit, the drawing speed dropped a notch. The three leftover buds couldn't yet rival the suction of four.
The force grew around him.
Max noticed it at once.
In response, he unleashed the first vein of the Seven Divine Veins in his body.
A strong surge coursed through him. His build powered up sharply as sacred energy ran through his meridians. The smothering flames that had weighed on him just before lost most of their heft.
"With my body alone and the aid of my first vein, I should handle crossing plenty of layers," he whispered steadily.
Bolstered, he pushed through the seventeenth layer. His frame withstood the grinding force while the leftover buds kept processing the ambient laws. It wasn't long before he passed the heart of the seventeenth layer and stepped into the eighteenth.
The Path to Eternal Flames quivered as he climbed.
In the eighteenth layer, the third bud at last hit its peak. The higher layers' refined energy had fed it fully. As Max drove on, the bud solidified, its skin blazing fiercely before turning into a third dark red fruit.
The intake rate adjusted once more.
Now just two buds stayed active, yet the power of three fruits fortified the flame branch, giving Max stronger defense against the crushing surroundings.
He didn't slacken.
He cleared the eighteenth layer and went into the nineteenth.
The flames deepened to a darker hue, thicker, nearly pitch at their heart. The chaotic laws weren't just heavy here anymore. They ruled with brutality. Still, Max's frame, empowered by the first divine vein, held firm without wavering.
Halfway across the nineteenth layer, the fourth bud shook and solidified. It also became a dark red fruit, joining the increasing yield on the Chaos Tree.
Four fruits dangled from the flame branch now.
Just one bud was left.
