Chapter 466: High Profile Act
The Nine Valkyries were recruited by the Immortal Palace Sect over seven hundred years ago.
When they first arrived, they were just like the rest of the regular disciples recruited by the sect.
Undergoing the baptism of the sect's origin, receiving the sect's knowledge inheritance, being granted the sects treasures and resources, solidified their foundations, and more.
However, as they competed with the other sect disciples, things started to change.
The Nine Valkyries began to show their fangs, defeating opponents one after another, completing trial after trial, and submitting perfect task time after time.
They were unstoppable.
In just a hundred years of displaying their unprecedented prowess, the title "Nine Valkyries" resounded throughout the Immortal Palace Realm.
Thinking of all the achievements of the Nine Valkyries, the guards looked at Maximus as if they understood his intention.
"The Nine Valkyries just finished a one-hundred-year trial. They should be undergoing a commendation ceremony in the upper level of the Grand Hall Domain."
"A hundred-year trial?" Hearing this, Maximus frowned slightly.
"A hundred-year trial is a general term for hell level trials to become a core disciple of the sect," they patiently explained, thinking of Maximus's high status.
"Core disciple? I see," Maximus replied.
After gathering more information, Maximus quickly went to the center of the dimensional teleportation array.
Soon after setting the coordinates, the dimensional teleportation array lit up, taking Maximus to the Grand Hall Domain.

Grand Hall Domain:
The area was full of people chattering among themselves as they looked at the colossal in front of them.
"It's them!" Maximus muttered, seeing his daughter and granddaughter strolling onto the podium.
Maximus took out a VIP guest card and flew to the podium as if making up his mind.
The VIP guest card seemed to be an ultimate deterrent weapon.
Despite being male and of unknown origin, no one stopped him as he flew to the podium.
Finding a better view, Maximus sat in one of the stands, looking at his daughter and granddaughter with a smile.
While Maximus watched leisurely, the sect elders beside him looked on in shock.
"Who is this? Are they one of your relatives? This is a solemn ceremony!" one of the elders warned, thinking Maximus had sneaked in to see the beauties of the Nine Valkyries.
Since they had become famous, male creatures of high status had traveled all through the Immortal Palace Realm to catch a glimpse of their beauty.
"No, look at his identity pass. It's different from the ones we usually give," one of the elders noticed.
"Huh? The fluctuation of the Dimensional Alliance law of causality? Who is he?!"
Seeing the hidden mark of the Dimensional Alliance, they couldn't help but be shocked.
Although the Immortal Palace Sect was a part of the Dimensional Alliance, the management of the Alliance was different altogether.
Without enough status, they couldn't know the inner workings of the Alliance.
"Furthermore, do you feel that aura?"
"A Tier 11 Shadow Elder?!"
As elders of a top sect, they were at the minimum of the Tier 11 realm.
Spotting an individual with the same strength was not a problem.
Sensing the Shadow Elder, another veil of mystery seemed to wrap around Maximus.
A Tier 9 individual with a Tier 11 elite creature as a guardian?
Even their Immortal Seedlings were nothing compared to that.
Their Immortal Seedlings were the most talented individuals of the sect, possessing a minimum of a Supreme Grade Ultimate Physique.
They were the embodiment of invincibility.
To protect them from harm, they were usually guarded by a Tier 11 Elder proficient in combat.
Seeing Maximus was the same, they couldn't help but guess which sect Maximus belonged to.
Looking at the reaction of the elders beside him, Maximus secretly sighed in relief.
Maximus wouldn't usually act so high-profile.
However, for the sake of his children and grandchildren, he needed to do this to add a layer of protection.
In a sect, disciples not only competed with talents and skills but also with backgrounds.
Those with low backgrounds and insufficient talent could be bullied or excluded by the sect.
Maximus didn't know how much hardships his children and grandchildren had endured to reach this state with their pitiful backgrounds.
A being from a Tier 9 dimension, no matter how talented, would eventually be coerced or subdued by someone of higher background sooner or later.
If not for the reputation of the Immortal Palace Sect being protective of their disciples, Lily and the others might have already been coerced because of their potential.
Such a talented specimen was a perfect cauldron or slave to possess.
Even at the risk of exposing a bit of his status, Maximus was willing to suffer.
The identity pass he carried was equivalent to that of the Immortal Seedling of the sect or a potential sect inheritor.
Thus, unless the Immortal Palace Sect wanted to be the enemy of a potential sect master, Lily and the others would have a smooth journey within the sect.
While the elders had different thoughts, Lily and the others finally noticed Maximus.
"Father!"
"Grandfather!"
Hearing this, the elders on the stand were shocked again.
"Just who is this man?"
"He's a relative of the Nine Valkyries?!"
Seeing that Maximus was only in the Tier 9 realm, yet possessing various prestigious identities, they felt like they were dreaming.
Not caring about their thoughts, Maximus smiled, waving for them to finish the ceremony before anything else.
In excitement and surprise, Lily and the others quickly completed the commendation ceremony as they were promoted to core disciples.

In the sect's private courtyard, Maximus domineeringly occupied the space, inviting his daughter and granddaughter as if it were his territory.
"Wow, how did you manage to occupy this, Grandfather? This is one of the sect's private courtyards!" Lila asked in shock.
As a sect's private courtyard, the atmosphere and energy environment of the place were worthy of one of the 9 top sects.
It was equipped with a dimensional magnifier, projecting the river of laws across the Aeon Plane.
Maximus even saw the virtual projection of the river of knowledge.
As for the origin of laws, they were condensed into solid manifestations.
Whether it was the lake, the rocks, the trees, the flowers, or the birds, everything was made of solid origin of law.
He felt that if he trained here, his progress would be millions, if not billions of times faster.
After having enough fun exploring the place, they sat down as the girls talked about their experiences over the years.
Arriving in an unfamiliar place, they were uncomfortable for a while, especially since the dimensional latitude of the place was different from the Etherium Realm.
Fortunately, their introducer, Alexandra, was quite nice.
Taking care of them all the way, they felt welcomed and at home.
However, upon facing other sect disciples, they felt pressure.
They were just somewhat talented individuals from a Tier 9 dimension.
Despite the baptism of the sect, which equalized their standing with the rest, they still felt inferior and weak.
Fortunately, the training their father had put them through was not for nothing.
Although subtle, no matter their situation, they could always find a solution.
Whether it was their thinking abilities, skills, comprehension, or overall capabilities, everything in them seemed molded to overcome any challenge.
This marked the beginning of their rise—the rise of the Nine Valkyries.
Hearing their story, Maximus couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
His transcendent parenting and training knowledge had paid off.
Although lacking in some specific aspects, Maximus ensured to ingrain basic survival instincts in every member of his family.
Even if they were thrown into a chaotic world, without power and alone, they could thrive just by relying on themselves.
As they shared their experiences over the years, Maximus tried to gauge their power level.
"Peak Tier 9 Realm with tens of millions in magnitude of power?!" Maximus thought in shock.
100 million is the bearing capacity of the essence of law.
Unless they performed a destructive secret technique, disregarding their foundation's destruction, this power magnitude could not be surpassed.
Seeing that they possessed tens of millions in magnitude of power, surpassing even Skye and Lilith, Maximus thought he was hallucinating.
Just how deep is the foundation of this sect that even a core disciple had the power of this caliber?
If they continue to progress and solidify their foundation, they might reach the peak of the essence of law's bearing capacity, forming a perfect foundation.
"How could you be this strong?" Maximus couldn't help but ask.
"Hahaha, you finally noticed, Father!" Lyla laughed, wanting to show off their power.
However, remembering that their father possessed hundreds of millions in magnitude of power, they felt helpless.
"It's thanks to the Immortal Palace Sect. Besides helping us harmonize our physique to peak dimensional level, they also provided us with a foundational manual with 161,800 elements and laws. After hundreds of years of training and absorbing causality of power as rewards for the tasks we completed, we were able to attain our current strength," Lily explained.
"Top sects are indeed different..." Maximus sighed.
