After a series of processes, with the help of Jixie, Maximus managed to sneak into the Mortal Domain of the Ashura Sect.

The Ashura Sect didn’t have many rules regarding their sect.

Aside from the Heaven Domain, anyone could enter the Hell and Mortal Domain.

Landing on the ground, Maximus nearly knelt from the pressure.

Even when he propped up the dimensional barrier of the World Tree, it didn’t have much effect.

“Host, converge your energy to Tier 3 Realm,” Jixie hurriedly reminded.

Not thinking much, he quickly suppressed his realm until it fell to Tier 3.

“Huh~ What is this suppression?” Maximus asked, heaving a sigh of relief.

He felt he would have been flattened like a pancake if it had continued longer.

“This must be the famous suppressing Tier 12 dimensional treasure of the Ashura Sect. Anyone who breaks its rules will be suppressed until they die,” Jixie guessed.

“Is that so?” Maximus nodded in understanding.

This must be why the Ashura Sect has lackluster management—everyone, regardless of status, has to follow its rules once they enter.

Suddenly, Maximus noticed Jixie frowning.

“What’s wrong?”

“I can’t connect to the Virtual Realm. The signals here are blocked,” Jixie frowned.

“Hmm? No signal?” Maximus finally understood why his children couldn’t contact them in the Virtual Realm.

In the Mortal Domain, even Jixie, a Nexus Fairy, couldn’t connect to the virtual world, much less mortals at Tiers 0-3 realm.

Thinking about the rules, Maximus quickly understood its purpose.

Those resurrected in the Mortal Domain are losers who need to rebuild themselves.

If they could access the Virtual Realm all the same, their punishment would be meaningless.

From entertainment, resources, training facilities, to business, one could do everything in the virtual realm.

What would they learn in the Mortal Domain if they could access the Virtual Realm?

It’s like one was grounded for playing too much games, yet could still access the internet all the same.

Not wanting to waste any time, Maximus began to find Max and the others using the Seal of Truth.

If in the Immortal Palace, everything foreign and dangerous is suppressed to the limit, in the Ashura Realm, there were no restrictions.

Aside from his tier being limited to Tier 3, Maximus could use every treasure at his disposal.

Under the deduction of the Seal of Truth, Maximus flew and passed various teleportation points around the Mortal Domain for a few months, finally arriving at the massive fort before him.

A teleportation array from this barren world could only cover so much distance.

Maximus had to take multiple teleportation arrays before he could reach his destination.

The Mortal Domain was too big beyond his cognition. Searᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

If measured, the Ashura Realm’s Mortal Domain should be billions or even trillions of times the size of the Etherium Realm.

With such a vast place, Maximus couldn’t help but marvel at the foundation of the top powers of the Aeon Plane.

As Maximus approached the stronghold, it suddenly transformed as mechanical cannons and formation arrays lit up.

“These kids are quite alert,” Maximus nodded in satisfaction.

“Let’s see how prepared you are.”

Maximus faced the stronghold’s defense, not revealing his identity, using only his Tier 3 strength.

Blocking a few easy waves of attack, Maximus smiled.

“This is not enough. Show me more…”

Seeing the enemy easily survive the few waves of their defense, Max and the others frowned.

“This is bad…”

“Take the tier 12 treasure given by the sect. I’ll see if he still dares to invade our stronghold,” Zoe muttered in dissatisfaction.

“No! We are here to train. Using the treasure to fight the enemy would make us dependent on it,” Nathan said solemnly.

“Then what do we do?!”

“We fight, of course. The stronghold’s defense is only for warning. Now that the invader insists on going forward, he must be strong,” Max licked his lips.

“That’s more like it! Come on.” Ella smiled, loving the idea.

Deciding on the matter, Max, Ella, Nathan, Zoe, Martin, and Silvan quickly formed a human formation and attacked the invader.

Seeing them finally come, Maximus smiled.

“Let’s see how much you’ve improved over these years.”

Soon, a despairing battle ensued. Max thought that with the seven of them cooperating in a tight formation, they could easily defeat the enemy. He didn’t expect they would face despair.

The enemy’s moves flowed perfectly, dodging as if he saw the future, with attacks they couldn’t block.

Max and the others felt they were facing their ultimate enemy.

If not for the different face and aura, they would have thought they were facing their father.

Finally, after a few hours of exchange, Max and the others knew they couldn’t win and began to use their treasures one after another.

Seeing this, Maximus just smiled and propped up the dimensional barrier of the World Tree, blocking their attacks.

“That’s enough! It’s me,” Maximus said, removing his disguise.

“Father!”

“Grandfather!”

“Father-in-law!”

They shouted one after another, looking at him with surprise.

“I knew it. How could there be someone so monstrously strong beside father?” Max smiled helplessly.

“Grandfather is invincible!” Martin muttered, wanting to fight again.

“Father, what are you doing here?” Nathan asked.

“I’m here to check on your safety. Your mothers were already getting worried. How dare you not send any news!” Maximus scolded, thinking of the worried faces of his wives.

“But—”

“I already know you couldn’t access the Virtual Realm, but how could you stay in this place for over a hundred years? You should have long returned to the Hell Domain with your talent.”

Unlike the Immortal Palace Sect, the Ashura Sect didn’t have disciple ranks; there were only elders and sect leaders.

All disciples from Tier 0 to Tier 10 had the same status—a seedling that needed to grow in the harsh environment of the Ashura Sect.

There were no missions, tasks, responsibilities, or contribution systems. The only thing they needed to do was fight.

However, to distinguish the disciples of the Ashura Sect from ordinary individuals, they were provided with conveniences.

From Tier 0 to Tier 10, they could have as many resources as they wanted.

From magic crystals, origin fragments, potions, weapons, and materials—as long as it’s for personal use, they could ask and take them unlimitedly.

Besides that, they also had unrestricted access to all knowledge stored in the Ashura Sect.

They could pick top-tier dimensional techniques as they wished, as long as they could comprehend them.

Finally, the disciples of the Ashura Sect could also receive personal guidance from a Tier 11 powerhouse of the sect.

If they had questions about something they didn’t understand, they could contact the sect for answers.

Such a sect, which put everything aside except fighting and killing, was a perfect battleground to cultivate the strongest fighters.

Because of this, knowing they were getting such benefits in the Ashura Sect, Maximus doubted why they were still in the Mortal Domain.

“We are still building our foundation, Father. The people in the Hell Domain are not something we can compete with…” Max sighed.

Being killed in the Hell Domain as they forged the path of invincibility, they were a little traumatized.

The old fighters staying in the Hell Domain for thousands or millions of epochs were monsters.

Usually, if they could survive after fighting for hundreds or thousands of years, one could advance to the peak of the Tier 10 realm and begin advancing to Tier 11 in the Heaven Domain.

However, these monsters were a bunch of cheaters, bullying newcomers like themselves.

“So, you encountered the gatekeepers of the sect?” Maximus laughed a little at their experience.

These gatekeepers stayed in the Hell Domain to prevent disciples from growing arrogant and advancing with unstable foundations.

“Then what are you doing here? How can you train without fighting?” Maximus said angrily.

“We’re trying to comprehend the top-dimensional fighting techniques of the Ashura Sect. There’s also the foundation manual with 161,800 elements and laws. It’s too hard, so we unknowingly stayed here for over a hundred years,” Max said in embarrassment.

“You really are stupid,” Maximus sighed, feeling worried for them.

“Alright, I will stay here for a few years with you. I’ll teach you what you don’t understand,” Maximus decided.

He was also a little greedy for the book collection of the Ashura Sect.

Although Max and the others could only access up to Tier 10 books, it was enough for him.

More importantly, the foundation manual containing 161,800 elements and laws.

Maximus had already copied the foundational manual Lily and the others had in the Immortal Palace Sect.

If he could copy the one they had, he would have two almost perfect manuals as a base to create his own.

Studying knowledge one by one to create the perfect Tier 9 and Tier 10 origin manual would take too long.

By estimate, it would take Maximus hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years.

But if he had a manual to copy, it might shorten the time to just a few thousand years.

Thinking of this, he felt excited.
