Chapter 1007 Might of a Primordial
Kiat's hair had turned whitish-golden while his skin was covered in a membrane of energy.
The energy was some sort of a mixture between his mana and the lesser divine energy which the Heart of the Sacred had devoured and converted into a different type of energy.
Jason was clearly sensing that the new type of energy was far stronger than Soul force which piqued his curiosity.
However, his moonlight divine energy was still the most powerful type of energy Jason had ever perceived.
And it even influenced the Soul fusion, strengthening it manifold.
The tiny feathers that shrouded his entire body were growing in size, slowly morphing into a tight body armor that protected him from the fluctuations of Kiat's energy.
It was almost as if the tiny feathers repelled Kiat's energy, just to turn into a flexible armor that was harder than most metals in the vast Universe.
With destructive traits intertwined, the Sacred Elvyr could decay everything in his surroundings, and turn it into countless particles of energy at will.
This was fearsome, even for Jason, who was not able to understand what was going on.
He could only roughly gauge the element of a decaying poison owing to the all-elemental affinity seed within himself.
However, even then, Jason was not exactly sure what was going on with Kiat, forcing him to act more vigilant.
But this was also not possible as the Sacred Elvyr emerged behind him with a seemingly nonchalant teleportation move.
Jason countered his move by teleporting himself more than a thousand kilometers into the sky.
His transformation was still underway and his constitution was currently adjusting to the terrifyingly high potency the moonlight divine energy had.
There was a reason for Jason to have never used moonlight divine energy before.
His entire being had instinctively prevented him from mixing these two together, knowing that his physique had not been ready to endure the pressure of the high potency.
This had now changed after decades and he felt ready to use it.
Jason was far stronger than his past self, and with the additional knowledge he received over all kinds of affinities, he was confident to fight and defeat Kiat.
Even if he was weaker, his will was unbreakable, giving him the courage to give his all against Kiat.
And that was even though Kiat's strength was now incomparable to before.
With that in mind, Jason didn't hesitate any longer as he made use of the most important treasure he had received from the True Soul awakening!
Scorpio!
In the beginning, Jason wanted to undergo a soul fusion with Scorpio, but owing to the warning he received, he hesitated at first.
Scorpio told him that his cultivation was damaged and that there was some sort of problem.
However, right now, there was no need for Jason to hesitate.
In fact, his entire being screamed to undergo the fusion with Scorpio, to just do it, and to trust his soulbond and himself.
Knowing that his instincts wouldn't betray him, Jason thus ended his soul fusion with Artemis and Solaris at once.
Replacing the two soulbonds with only Scorpio, he initiated it once again. After receiving 100% soul amplification of his soulbond his skin burst open as the strength of a wandering soul at the Mecynar stage was transferred to him.
Under normal circumstances, this would have torn Jason apart as Scorpio alone was on par with Kiat's strength before the activation of the Heart of the Sacred.
Yet, owing to the fact that his cultivation was damaged, things were changing.
Jason was able to fuse with Scorpio, and soon after a huge golden semi-transparent armor enveloped his entire body.
A five-meter-long stinger was growing out of his back, along with two several-meter-long claws that pierced out of his back as well.
Meanwhile, Scorpio's brightly glowing eyes and a portion of his face turned into the breastplate of the golden armor.
Teleporting himself through the surrounding area, Jason allowed Scorpio to fuse with him.
It was the first time they had undergone a soul fusion after more than a century, and too many things had changed between them.
Their bond was stronger than ever before, but their strength was on a completely different level than before.
Even their bodies' characteristics, their cultivation energies and lots of other things were not the same as they had been a century ago.
Thus, Scorpio had been in need of a few seconds to fully fuse with Jason.
However, once Scorpio was done, Jason marched forward and didn't hesitate to face Kiat head-on.
And it was just a fraction of a second later that the Sacred Elvyr appeared in front of Jason.
"Done running away?" He asked with cold eyes that were completely different to Kiat's usual expression.
This would have astonished Jason, but he knew that there was no time to be flustered.
Without meaning to, Jason attacked with Scorpio's pincers and claws while thrusting out with his hands.
The semi-translucent golden gloves that covered the back of his hand were the razor-sharp fangs of Scorpio.
They were powerful enough to penetrate even the strongest materials at the Low Mecynar stage, including the bones of Kiat upon being hit.
However, Jason thought that his attack was still not enough to inflict an injury to Kiat.
Because of that, he circulated the moonlight divine energy through his golden armor, before adding several affinities in order to support the combined attack of Scorpio and himself.
Amongst these affinities were the spatial affinity to seal the surrounding space, and the wind affinity to accelerate the speed at which he was attacking.
Simultaneously, the wind affinity was also used to pull Kiat towards Jason like a powerful magnet, preventing him from moving away.
However, it also included the poison affinity that Jason used to create highly concentrated poison around the claws, stinger, and fangs that were bound to pierce into Kiat's flesh.
Launching a combination of attacks on Kiat, who had just appeared in front of him, Jason was giving his all.
He even began to circulate moonlight divine energy through his Emperor Eyes before utilizing the petrification curse and the abyssal effect.
Using an enormous amount of energy at once, Jason felt that his entire body was cracking under the immense pressure while blood was leaking from his pores after his skin burst open.
It was a horrifying sight, even for Kiat, who had already lost his grasp over the situation.
The fact that they had been just sparring and eager to fight one good battle had long since lost its meaning, causing both of them to feel like giving their utmost effort to defeat their opponent.
However, it was out of nowhere that Kiat noticed something that caused his eyes to widen, his instincts telling him that something bad was going on.
By the time Kiat sensed that something was off, Jason's Celestia aura had just been fully released and was enshrouding his body, while the moonlight divine energy swept through it.
*Thump*
Oblivious to the sudden noise the Celestia aura had emitted, Jason could only perceive that the God's Halo was moving.
It began to rotate, first slowly, only to accelerate to an untraceable speed within no time.
Moments that felt like minutes passed only for a tremendous suction force to emerge from the center of God's Halo.
Jason had not expected this to happen, but he could clearly sense that he was not affected by this.
In fact, only the energies from the surrounding, followed by the winds Kiat controlled were suctioned towards the God's Halo, depriving him of everything.
Even the energy that enveloped Kiat's body was not spared which weakened the Sacred Elvyr drastically.
It even forced Jason to tweak his attack as he changed the trajectory of the claws and the stinger while changing the shape of the gloves, turning them into blunt weapons that swooped down on Kiat, blasting him to the ground as if he was nothing more than a leaf fluttering in the wind.
Smashing into the ground, his impact created a huge crater with a depth of several kilometers that sent cracks spreading through the surface for miles.
He spit out blood, felt helpless, and wrongly treated as he clearly understood why he had just lost the spar.
The God's Halo was still rotating at a rapid pace, only slowing down after some time through which the suctioning force weakened as well.
'So that's the prowess of a Primordial…' Kiat mused while looking at Jason, whose eyes pierced into the depths of his soul.
He was just trying to catch his breath, but that was far more difficult than just a few minutes ago…
The tension enveloping him was too great for him to move, let alone say anything else.
Yet, Jason was just smiling as he answered as if he had read his mind,
"No, not a Primordial. Just Jason, Jason Stella!"
