Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100 Chapter 1396 Void Origin Eyes

At that moment, Clan Head Jeremy reached their side and checked on Revona's state. Following a quick check, he eased up a bit after verifying that her wounds weren't too bad and she'd just been stunned by the sword blow. He stood tall and faced Max, his face serious but steady.

"This fight is ours to lose," he declared with a heavy breath. "We'll honor your terms. Both our clans will supply you with ample resources to help you climb steadily to the top of the Rebirth Realm. Regarding access to our clans' inherited arts, that hinges on your success in the Tri Clan Tournament, set to happen in a year's time."

"Fine," Max answered softly while the void in his gaze began to lift. His feelings crept back gradually, the intense sharpness easing as he emerged from that cold detachment.

Thus, the event wrapped up for real. The thick pressure hanging over the arena started to fade away, and the watching disciples departed the viewing areas one after another, their faces showing wonder, doubt, and lasting surprise.

Quiet talks broke out as they headed back to their own quarters, everyone mentally reliving that decisive strike, aware they'd seen an event destined to echo through the ages.

Max followed suit. He slipped away from the arena in silence and headed solo to the Thirty Third Hall, his pace even and relaxed. Carl and Lucia had been called off by Lady Virelia for some private business, so Max traveled alone. The route felt peaceful, but his thoughts churned wildly inside.

The clash against Revona weighed on his mind, not from the win itself, but from the nagging feeling that some core secret about her stayed concealed.

Right then, Tian's words rang out in his head.

"Master, you got really lucky in your duel with Revona," Tian noted, his voice unusually grave.

Max lifted a brow a touch as he kept moving. "Lucky?" he questioned. "Care to elaborate?"

"Since you're in the dark, I'll clarify," Tian responded gravely. "If I'm right, Revona holds the Void Origin Eyes for this age."

"Void Origin Eyes?" Max's forehead creased. During the whole fight, her eyes had stayed hidden behind that phoenix mask. "That potent, huh?"

Tian wasted no time. "Master, the Void Origin Eyes rank among the mightiest eye-based powers around. Just one person per era gets born with them, and never duplicates at once. Revona claims them in our time."

Tian went on, his tone laced with deep respect. "In the annals of time, all who wielded the Void Origin Eyes rose to dominate their era, often as the unchallenged top. They towered as humanity's finest, supports that bolstered mankind and elevated it to supreme heights in the Divine Realm."

Max's eyebrows drew in a bit. "She packed a punch," he conceded, "but nothing like the dominance you're painting."

"Exactly why I called it luck on your part," Tian shot back, a subtle grin in his tone. "She likely only unlocked her Void Origin Eyes upon hitting the Rebirth Realm. That's why she hasn't grasped their full might or the dread powers they unleash."

Tian's voice turned more somber as he delved deeper. "The Void Origin Eyes let their owner void out strikes below their core power level. Any might inferior to their base can vanish before it fully forms. They neutralize assaults no matter the type—be it physical, elemental, spatial, or even conceptual. Pushing away or drawing in all kinds of being are just lesser tricks, echoes of their true command."

He halted for a second before pressing on. "A key trait of the Void Origin Eyes is peering into the core of Divine Essence. This lets the wielder shape Divine Essence at its root, offering control so total that nothing else compares. Just this makes them unrivaled lords of Divine Essence in the Divine Realm."

Tian's words softened a notch, tinged with doubt. "They hold more main powers too, but I don't know them all. Still, records prove this one trait alone catapults the Void Origin Eyes' host into the Divine Realm's scariest legends."

While Max pressed on to his hall, his look grew stern. The picture of Revona poised steadily in front of him flashed back, along with how his power had dissolved so easily.

"Had no idea eyes like that were out there," Max whispered under his breath as he strode along, a small grin tugging at his mouth while thrill gradually overtook wariness in his chest. Each fresh revelation made the Divine Realm seem vaster and deeper, brimming with enigmas that stretched beyond his wildest thoughts.

At his core, he knew one truth for sure. His run-in with Revona was just the start, and their next crossing would carry far heavier stakes than this day.

With that idea taking root, another query bubbled up in Max's head, slowing his stride just a fraction. "Tian, you mentioned only one Void Origin Eyes bearer per era," he stated evenly, yet digging for more beneath.

"Yes, Master. Spot on," Tian confirmed promptly. "Why do you ask?"

Max's eyes narrowed as he walked on, his mind focusing on one sharp wonder. "So what of the heir to the Forgotten God?" he pressed. "What of the Dimensional Keeper's class bearer?"

After ages, Tian held back his reply. A thick quiet filled Max's thoughts, dragging on longer than any break Tian had ever made. That hush hit hard, enough to nudge Max's pulse up a bit. When Tian spoke at last, his voice shed its light touch for something weighty, nearly worshipful.

"Master," Tian uttered deliberately, "the Dimensional Keeper defies era limits like no other. From ancient days, through endless loops of birth and ruin, only one has ever inherited the Dimensional Keeper mantle. And you, Master, are that one."

Max halted slowly, those words burrowing deep into his awareness.
