Chapter 465: Immortal Palace Realm
"So, this is the Immortal Palace Realm?"
In the void station outside the Immortal Palace Realm, Maximus looked outside in amazement.
The Immortal Palace Realm was like its name—a dimension shaped like an immortal palace.
If the Etherium Realm was like a blue gem floating in the void, the Immortal Palace Realm was multiple towers made of multiple layers of dimensions.
The size of it was too vast to compare; the Etherium Realm was merely a gem compared to the enormous palace.
"Host, don't wander too much in the void station; you may accidentally get exiled. The void around the Immortal Palace realm is unforgiving," Jixie warned, noticing Maximus inching closer to the edge of the void station.
The void station is a bubble dimension, a relay station to enter the Immortal Palace realm.
Even with Maximus's identity, he couldn't directly teleport inside the Immortal Palace Realm.
If Jixie directly opened a void teleportation inside, they would be bombarded until there was nothing left.
Even a Tier 11 powerhouse who mastered the ocean of law wouldn't dare commit such a disrespectful act.
Soon, it was Maximus's turn to register.
Filling out a bunch of information, the personnel in charge couldn't help but look at Maximus curiously.
"Is that a male human?"
"It seems so! How could a male creature be allowed to visit the Immortal Palace Realm?"
"Maybe he had a high status?"
"No, look at his strength. He's merely a Tier 9 powerhouse. Unless he's on the same standing as the sect's immortal seedling, there's no way he would be allowed inside our realm."
"Then he must be a special talent hired by the Immortal Palace Sect."
The Immortal Palace Realm is home to the most numerous females in the Dimensional Alliance.
Male creatures, whether of the lowest status, from a chicken to the most prodigious race, are rarely found in the dimension.
To maintain the purity of the place, all male creatures, regardless of status, are excluded from the Immortal Palace Realm.
The only instance of a male appearing in the Etherium Realm was when the Immortal Palace Realm recruited special talents for its needs.
From array masters, alchemists, rune inscriptionists, virtual programmers, forging masters, mechanists, etc.
There were also rough jobs like cleaning, mining, construction, maintenance, etc.
Although the Immortal Palace Sect preferred to hire neutral or female creatures, sometimes it wasn't enough.
After filling out the application form, Maximus quickly headed to the main teleportation portal, unable to withstand the curious stares he was receiving.
...
Immortal Palace Realm, Bottom Layer:
Looking at the paradise-like place, Maximus was amazed.
"It's more beautiful inside..." Maximus muttered, thinking of bringing his wives here some other time.
Just as he was admiring the beauty of the place, he felt a suppressive force making him uncomfortable.
"It's the difference in dimensional latitude, Host. You should self-regulate your body to calm down," Jixie reminded.
"I know, you don't have to tell me..." Maximus frowned.
Because his origin was bound to another dimension, travelling to another was like an alien going to another planet.
Without special suits and apparatus, one would be suppressed or even die under the pressure.
The mana and laws would treat you like a foreigner, excluding and repelling you.
This is also why only those who reached Tier 10 Realm and mastered the Origin of Law could freely travel to other dimensions.
Although at Tier 9, the essence of law was self-regulating and wouldn't be absorbed back by the dimension, it wasn't self-generating.
The law needed to reach the level of Origin to generate on its own, regardless of the place one was in.
Even if one was in the deepest void with a barren environment without energy or laws, having even a bit of the Origin of Law could sustain them perpetually.
Mobilizing the World Tree, Maximus propped up a mini dimensional barrier to repel the suppressive force.
"Huh~ Much better."
Although the suppressive force couldn't harm him, it was still uncomfortable.
It seemed he could only bring his wives here after they reached the Tier 10 Realm.
Even with protective measures, they wouldn't appreciate the scenery if they were constantly bombarded by this force.
"I can use my power just fine," Maximus thought, testing his abilities.
Even without the self-generation of the Origin of Law, his mana, power of law, and essence of law still flowed freely.
His special physique had reached Tier 11 rank, capable of providing him energy up to the essence of law.
Even if the Immortal Palace Realm tried to deplete him of energy, it wouldn't work.
Feeling refreshed and light, he walked around to explore the area.
Around him was a plaza full of different species of women, busy with their tasks.
Even so, upon seeing Maximus, they couldn't help but chatter among themselves as if seeing a special species of monkey.
Feeling uncomfortable with their stares, Maximus put up an invisibility barrier.
As for transforming himself into a woman, Maximus would never.
Maximus would be embarrassed to death if his daughters saw him in such a form.
...
Time passed as Maximus aimlessly wandered around, asking for news about nine Valkyries.
Over a hundred years ago, his daughter told him they had become known as the Nine Valkyries in the Immortal Palace Realm.
Using their title to ask around, Maximus hoped one of these people had heard of them.
Unfortunately, most people around have never heard of such a title.
With the vastness of the Immortal Palace Realm, it's understandable that such a title still hadn't spread in this place.
"Do you know where my daughter and granddaughter are?" Maximus asked, frustrated by the lack of information.
"Host, we're in the lower part of the Immortal Palace Realm. The people here are ignorant about general information of the sect," Jixie reminded.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
The Truth Seal was suppressed in this Tier 12 dimension.
Unlike his systemized ultimate treasure that could operate without power, the Truth Seal relied mainly on his strength.
With his Tier 9 strength, using the Truth Seal in a Tier 12 dimension was like a child stealing information from the most secure bank.
The only reason he could use the Truth Seal without any problem was because of his dimensional authority, and most of what he deduced were open secrets, not guarded by any security measures.
Like the laws and knowledge, although hard to deduce, they were freely flowing throughout their plane of existence.
"I just realized we're in the lower realm; even my power is suppressed here," Jixie muttered with a pout, hearing Maximus's reprimanding.
As an omnipotent Tier 11 Nexus Fairy, who could see the entire Etherium Realm like flipping a book, Jixie felt down, like a wilted plant in this dimension.
"A Tier 12 dimension is indeed different," Maximus comforted her, noticing Jixie's expression.
As one of the top dimensions in their plane of existence; even a god had to bow down here.
"How do we get to a higher floor in this place?"
"There should be a dimensional teleportation array in the middle of this dimensional floor," Jixie concluded.
"I see."
Looking at the infinite expanse of land, Maximus headed to the nearest teleportation array.
Personal teleportation was banned in this place; even his domain, which spanned a few thousand light-years in radius, had shrunk to just a few thousand kilometers.
After going through multiple teleportation arrays and enduring the looks from the witches of different species, Maximus finally arrived at the dimensional teleportation array.
However, as he approached, Maximus was stopped.
"Please show an identification pass before proceeding!" they said, looking at him menacingly.
"Oh," Maximus nodded as he scanned the billions and trillions of different passes in his storage space.
Besides the universal pass he could use anywhere, Maximus also had individual passes in case he didn't want his identity to be known.
As long as it was under the jurisdiction of the Dimensional Alliance, Maximus had a pass for every institution.
Even different identity cards, available only to those of special status in the Etherium Realm, had a replica pass.
From membership cards, guild identity plates, special profession cards, VIP cards, etc.
Maximus felt that if the vault of the Moonlight Empire required a pass, the Dimensional Alliance could even replicate it.
With the help of his system, Maximus quickly found the specific pass for the Immortal Palace Realm's dimensional teleportation array.
Looking at the ordinary and VIP passes, Maximus chose the latter without hesitation.
Seeing the dazzling identity card in Maximus's hand, the female guards who stopped him hurriedly apologized and led him to the dimensional teleportation array with full respect.
"Please excuse our rudeness; we didn't know your status, Excellency."
"It's okay, it doesn't matter," Maximus said, not taking it to heart.
After clearing up the confusion, they asked him which dimensional floor he would like to go to.
Hearing this, Maximus frowned, "Have you heard of the Nine Valkyries? Where could I meet them?"
"The Nine Valkyries?" the guard muttered, seemingly remembering the top figures who rose like rockets in just a few hundred years.
"You know them?" Maximus asked excitedly, seeing their expression.
"Of course, who wouldn't know the Nine Valkyries?"
