At his current level, the skill would need 66,000 lives to activate. Sitting at 136,407 Lives, Moon wasn't going to waste so many lives before activating the skill.
So, he leveled up one of his most anticipated skills at the second order.
[Advanced Elental Body]
[Order: First]
[Rank: Epic] [Level 15] [Evolve]
[Details: Your entire body has been tempered by the five elents—Fire, Wind, Earth, Water, and Lightning. You gain strong affinity with the four basic elents, and low affinity with the lightning elent. 150% Elental Control. 150% Elental Damage. 150% Elental Resistance to the five elents.] [Level 15 → 16: 2,048 Lives Consud]
[Level 16 → 17: 4,096 Lives Consud]
[Level 17 → 18: 8,192 Lives Consud]
[Level 18 → 19: 16,384 Lives Consud]
[Level 19 → 20: 32,768 Lives Consud]
[Your First Order Skill Advanced Elental Body has evolved to Second Order Skill: True Elental Physique!]
The evolution consud a massive chunk of his lives, leaving Moon with 72,919. A little over the minimum threshold for what ca next.
He didn't hesitate.
Moon activated [Life Burn].
[Life Burn activated. 90% of Lives consud. All attributes doubled. Spiritual acupuncture points expanded. Duration: 10 minutes.]
For a mont, nothing happened.
The battlefield continued to rage around him. Spells flew. Steel clashed. His team fought and bled and fought again. The ten First Star Evolvers surrounding Moon pressed their advantage, unaware that anything had changed.
Then everything changed.
One by one, like valves being wrenched wide. His first acupoint, the one housing True Elental Physique, surged with power so dense the spiritual energy inside it doubled in volu. His second acupoint, housing Thunderclap Raiju, followed. The lightning foundation crackled violently within him, unable to stop.
Then the remaining fifteen acupoints in his body, the ones that held only traces of spiritual energy, also doubled. Moon felt the warmth of spiritual energy spread across his entire body. It seeped through his pores, lifting the hair on his head, making the air around him distort for a brief mont. The fury within his body was imnse, like a hurricane had been compressed into his acupoint and was now battering against his body demanding release.
He could feel it. If he stood still, if he didn't move, if he didn't channel this energy outward, he would tear apart from the inside. That was how dangerous this power was.
The ten Evolvers surrounding him felt the change in Moon before they understood it. The pressure rolling off Moon's body hit them at once. Two of them stumbled backward on instinct.
On her throne, Layla's eyes widened as she stood up instinctively in shock.
"His aura." She whispered, her two ruby eyes locked on Moon. The faint smile that had lived on her lips since the battle began was gone. "Why is it so much stronger? How?"
Her subordinates felt it too. The threads of her curse trembled inside them, not from interference, but from proximity to an aura that made their instincts scream at them to run.
For the first ti in a very long ti, Layla felt sothing she had almost forgotten existed.
Fear. Fear of soone greater in power.
Moon stood at the center of the throne room. Lightning and fla orbited his body in violent arcs. The elents didn't just respond to him anymore. They moved with him. They breathed with him. Five elents in perfect synchronization, each one amplified beyond anything he had ever produced.
His doubled attributes. His expanded acupoints. His newly evolved True Elental Physique feeding every elent simultaneously through a foundation that had been built to maximize exactly this kind of output.
Ten minutes.
Moon's eyes found Layla's across the room.
'That's more than enough ti to wipe the floor with everyone here. Including her.' Moon smiled, his gaze landing on Layla.
He activated [True Elental Physique].
The blue arcs that would usually crackle across his arms changed color, turning into a rich shade of purple.
The light they cast painted the throne room walls in a color that hadn't existed in it before.
Moon stared at his own hands. Purple lightning crackling around them.
His gaze landed on the closest First Star Evolver. The man was still recovering from the shockwave of Moon's suppressive aura.
Moon's first guinea pig.
Without waiting, Moon hurled a bolt of purple lightning toward the man.
The bolt crossed the short distance in an instant and struck the man in the chest.
"AAHHH!"
The scream tore from his throat with a shrill that made every person in the room flinch. His body spasd imdiately upon impact, but it didn't stop there. His eyes rolled back into his skull. His shield fell from fingers that had forgotten how to grip. When he hit the ground, he was still shaking.
Moon's brows rose at the effects of his purple lightning.
'Interesting.'
The purple lightning was clearly much stronger than its previous counterpart, that much was apparent.
"Focus on Moon! Leave everyone else!" Layla's voice rang across the throne room, frantic in a way her subordinates had never heard before. She was on her feet, her red eyes burning, her composure cracking. "All of you! Attack him…Now!"
Her gaze snapped to Moon's teammates, casting curses on them. Turning his own people against him to add to the numbers. Several of Moon's Evolvers stiffened for a brief mont, their eyes losing focus. Monts later, their gaze moved towards Moon.
