"SOL!!"
Yoon-Jae, seeing his sudden appearance, panicked and tried to call back his attack. The others reacted similarly and tried to pull back their attacks, but it was too late. These powerful attacks were out of their control.
"Sol, what are you doing?! Move!!"
Yoon-Jae yelled, but the attacks were fast, and even if Sol wanted to escape, it was too late.
The six attacks bore down on him, threatening to destroy him in body and soul.
"Stop this already."
Sol muttered as he raised both of his hands towards the six attacks on either side of him.
The bracelets on his wrists expanded and revolved around his hand. This unsealed his Bloodline Energy, and it raged inside his body.
Sol’s hair swiftly turned golden, along with his pupils and eyebrows.
Both the black crescent moon and golden Holy Crest sun tattoo appeared on his forehead.
When the Bloodline Energy flowed out of his cells, it seed as if it was frustrated after being trapped for so long. Sol and Byeong-Ho’s fight must have awakened sothing with it.
A desire to battle.
This desire bombarded Sol’s senses as his Bloodline Energy continuously flowed out of his cells and crescent moon tattoo.
However, unlike before, where Sol used this energy to empower his physical body, or rather his Immortal Cultivation, he instead directed it towards his Holy Crest tattoo.
The Holy Crest imdiately released a blinding golden glow, having been injected with so much power.
Holy Energy erupted from Sol and ford two massive golden hands on either side of him.
Sol didn’t know it, but this was power similar to what he had shown when he took off three bracelets during his fight against Adalhard.
Despite only having taken off two bracelets, he had achieved this strength by combining the power of his crescent moon and Holy Crest tattoo, sothing he had never done before.
However, despite being similar, this level of power was far, far weaker than what Sol had shown at that ti.
Nevertheless, this power was not to be underestimated. At this mont, Sol could potentially rival soone who had just entered the Spiritual Realm.
Imdiately as those massive golden hands appeared, Sol clenched his fists. The massive hands mimicked his movents and grabbed the six attacks.
Byeong-Ho’s pink sword strike imdiately shattered along with Mar-Dule’s dual saber strikes. The hand then went on to slap down on the snake Yoon-Jae had conjured.
The snake’s entire body was covered by the hand, and it burst into crimson flas that spread everywhere.
At the sa ti, on the other side, Sol’s massive hand crushed Heon-Tae’s golden blade arc, as well as the two Divine Artifacts’ attacks.
The result of this clash was terrifying. Cracks appeared on the ground of the hall, and the entire palace started to tremble uncontrollably.
The shockwave from the attacks slamd into Cheong-San, Cheong-Su, and Jinji’s chests, forcing them to retreat several more ters.
Little Abdu wiggled his paw and created a small black barrier that protected both him and Little Zeel.
The chaos in the hall didn’t die down until a few dozen breaths had passed.
The smoke cleared up, and everyone witnessed Sol hovering in the air.
His eyes glowed brightly, and his hair seed to have a life of its own as it danced without wind.
To the others, it felt like Sol did not belong in this world. As if they weren’t supposed to lay eyes on soone like this.
It was a strange feeling they couldn’t put into words. But if they had to, they could only describe Sol as looking divine at this mont.
Ji-Hoon stared at Sol, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. Though it quickly disappeared as soon as it ca.
The bracelets around Sol’s hand contracted and clamped back onto his wrists. His hair and eyes returned to their normal color, while the crescent moon and sun tattoos faded away from his forehead. The two massive arms also dissipated.
Sol then lowered himself to the ground, and Yoon-Jae rushed over as soon as he landed.
Sol felt sothing dripping onto his lips.
When he reached up to touch the area with his hand, his fingers ca back with blood.
Sol hurriedly used his sleeves to wipe off the blood running from his nose. The backlash he suffered was severe.
Before he took off his bracelets, Sol’s body was at one hundred percent. But after taking them off and suffering this backlash, that hundred percent took a nosedive.
However, this backlash was different from all the others Sol had received up until now.
The backlash would always result in his physical body coming under pressure it couldn’t handle and thus becoming injured, but for this backlash, it wasn’t his physical body that was affected, but his soul.
Sol’s physical body, or rather, his Immortal Cultivation, was still in good condition. If he wanted to, he could continue fighting using it.
However, with his soul receiving a backlash, he wouldn’t be able to use a hundred percent of his Immortal Cultivation. Probably only around fifty or sixty percent.
Maybe if he took off his bracelets again and empowered his physical body and Immortal Cultivation with his Bloodline Energy, he could fight at a hundred percent. But that would an both his soul and physical body would suffer from a backlash. At that point, it wouldn’t be odd if he couldn’t move afterward.
As for empowering his soul and physical body, or his Holy Crest and Immortal Cultivation, at the sa ti, maybe he would be stronger. But the backlash would result in a complete burnout; that might cause him to black out.
These were Sol’s thoughts after using his Holy Energy for the first ti.
But his usage was too unrefined. He went from never using his Holy Energy to empowering it with his crescent moon. It was a miracle his soul hadn’t suffered more damage than this.
Sol wiped and wiped, but the blood kept coming out of his nose.
Sol thought for a mont, then tried using his Innate Dharma to heal his backlash.
He didn’t know if it would work since it wasn’t a physical injury, but turns out his Innate Dharma released a green glow that went on to encapsulate his mindscape, where his soul was located.
The headache that was coming on slowly faded away, and he felt his soul being healed.
"Sol, what were you thinking?!"
Yoon-Jae yelled as he ca up to Sol.
"I’m fine, Brother Yoon-Jae."
Sol glanced at Byeong-Ho and Heon-Tae, who were approaching.
"Do you guys have to fight? The result would an nothing."
Sol then glanced at Ji-Hoon.
"If this is your decision, then as I am now, I have no right to stop you, but don’t go too far. Release the disciples of the Academy."
Ji-Hoon looked at Sol, who was wearing a serious expression. That wasn’t a request on his part; it was a straightforward demand.
After staying silent for a mont, Ji-Hoon nodded.
"Okay, I’ll listen to Brother Sol this once."
Ji-Hoon waved his hand, and though it didn’t look like he did anything, the disciples in the dinsion all began vanishing one by one.
The people who were gathered outside the Hundred Plants and Herbs dinsion were shocked to see disciples being spat out from the void.
Ji-Hoon then said.
"That exit will lead you guys to the outside world. I guess this is goodbye."
Everyone looked behind them to see a small white doorway.
It had appeared out of nowhere.
When Jinji saw this, his body shook.
’He didn’t even need to motion to conjure that doorway. Is his control getting stronger even now? This isn’t right. Just who is this brat?’
