The abrupt change in the flow of spirit energy caught the female grand magus by surprise. Her eyes widened in shock when she felt the Khaos energy that she was pleasantly devouring suddenly pulled away from her.

It was such a strong pull that even after gathering all of her strength, some of the Khaos energy was still forcibly stripped from her.
“What the hell is happening?!”
Caution flashed in her eyes. The bizarre situation automatically made Zenonia want to pull away and reassess the situation. However, not only was she unable to part as she wished, the floating body of her prey suddenly glowed with an immeasurable amount of glimmering dark light.
A split second later, multiple green roots shot out from his mutilated limbs. They rapidly spread out toward her, entangling her body and preventing her from escaping.
Once again, the female grand magus experienced a state of shock, as she found that her energy was being pulled out of her through these roots.
“You fucking dare!?”
In an instant, Zenonia cast her life-saving spell. Darkness power burst out of her like a volcano, disintegrating all of the roots that entangled her body. The moment she was released from her restraints, she swiftly backed away from her prey.
In the meantime, Emery’s body that was hovering started to create numerous distortions in the space around him followed by more plant roots that formed the area around the body, further confusing the female grand magus.
Unfortunately for her, her question had to be left unanswered as her prey was still immersed in his trance-like state, unable to provide the answer she wanted.
As if they were alive, the roots continued to grow, spreading across the dark plains as if to engulf them whole. They seemed to have sensed the presence of the female grand magus as Zenonia watched the rolling waves of green roots rushing towards her fiercely like a predatory mob.
“Again with these useless plants!”
With an annoyed scowl on her face Zenonia made another wave with her hand. Once again the invisible power of space ripped through the terrain, crushing the approaching roots into ashes. More roots came like a tidal wave, but they received the same fate as their predecessors, being destroyed with ease.

Even though her attacks had already destroyed many of them, Zenonia soon found herself surrounded by more plant roots. Dozens, if not hundreds, of arm-sized green roots unceasingly hurled themselves at her.
“These annoying little sh*ts!”
During this time, Emery’s limbs had grown back looking as if they had never been cut off. While he was still in his trance-like state, his body continued to change.
[Your soul force has increased exponentially]
[You have successfully formed a Primal Core]
Unaware of what was happening outside of his body, the changes occurring within him strained all of his focus and mental energy, so much so that he was left incapable to even ask what the notification meant.
Fortunately, it seemed he didn’t need to, as the voice of the supreme magus rang in his ears.
“Primal core… It’s the spirit soul of a beast, a very powerful one at that. To think you could form one…” Taking a breath, Altus said, “How unexpected…”
Even though he could still hear the old man’s words, Emery was unable to give a response as he was still completely powerless. He felt weak all over. Moreover, even though he had successfully formed his second core, it was still fluctuating in chaos to the point of sending excruciating pain throughout his body, causing him to scream in agony.
“Please… Help…” Emery begged, gritting his teeth against the pain. “Make… it Stop!!”
The calm voice of the supreme magus resounded through the air.
“This is the reaction from having two souls each with their own core. They are clashing in an attempt to triumph over the other. Your body is unable to fathom both of them; in your current stage, it’s simply impossible.”
A short sigh escaped the supreme being before brilliant beams of energy began to emerge from his body. “You have done your best. Now it’s my turn to take over.”

The soul of the supreme magus was shining brightly before it swiftly engulfed both Emery’s cores. His crystalline green Magus Core and the pitch-black Primal Core. In an instant, Emery could feel a soothing sensation amidst the excruciating pain.
“Light and Darkness… Each is the bane of the other, yet they cannot exist without the other…”
Those were the last words Emery heard before a violent tremor shook his being as the bright light pulsated brilliantly. It exerted an invisible force that pushed the two cores towards each other.
Unlike his previous situation, Emery’s current state was not about reaching a balance between the two opposing entities. Instead, the supreme being seemed to be aiming for a fusion of the two opposite forces. If this succeeded, the core’s power would be multiplied, not just double, but ten times its original strength.
What followed was a powerful burst of energy, like a star lighting up the void.
[Your soul force has increased exponentially]
[You have gazed upon the power of Cosmos]
The power of the cosmos was within the boundaries of the Grand Magus realm. For Emery to be able to reach such a level, it was only possible due to the power of the supreme magus within his soul.
At that moment, Emery could feel his understanding of the Laws increase exponentially, reaching a level he had not even thought possible. However, he did not receive any notification indicating the increment in his comprehension.
Although he could vividly feel the power, it was as if it wasn’t his.
In fact, right now his mind was filled with knowledge he couldn’t begin to fathom, let alone process and understand.
Before long, the newfound power was channeled into his body, nourishing and strengthening every fiber of his being as it flowed all over. Just like when he received the Immortal Body for breaking through to the magus realm, this time substantially bigger.

Emery couldn’t hold himself from roaring as the power coursed through him and as it reached into his bloodstream, it activated the beast within him once again.
HOWLLLL!
His form started to oscillate in between the Night and Day wolf, furs and fang began to form, however, it was abruptly stopped and restrained.
All of the wolf fur that had appeared on his arms and chest swiftly disappeared, leaving only a conspicuous rune marking that continued to expand, becoming brighter as time went on.
The white silver hair and fangs were still there, creating a different kind of savage aura behind.
Emery opened his eyes. They shone brightly as energy suffused their entirety. He then calmly turned his gaze towards the figure that was his opponent.
“Zenonia, I will stop you now.”
The confidence Emery showed this time did not make her chuckle. After all, she could feel the changes in his body.
“Impossible! This is not possible!”
A deep frown appeared on her beautiful face as she said those words. Finally, realizing the situation was getting out of her hand, she decided not to play around anymore. She quickly waved her hand, and just like before, an invisible force charged towards Emery intending to cut him down.
However, instead of being helpless, this time Emery managed to stop him by casting his [Aegis of Void]. An isolated zone was swiftly created between him and the invisible force …” one that was many times stronger than before.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
As she had decided to fight seriously, Zenonia put aside all of her inhibitions and sent a barrage of invisible force at Emery. Yet each and every one of them were stopped by Emery’s spell.

“You… “
Losing her calm demeanor, Zenonia brought her right arm into the air. Following her gesture, a long sword was swiftly formed. It was a pure blade without a hilt, shining with luster despite its dark color. An energy blade created by her power of space.
[Void Blade]
“You will not block this one!”
Saying those words, Zenonia disappeared from where she was. With her proficiency in space magic, the female grand magus didn’t need to take a step before she appeared in front of Emery, the dark sword hovering above her swinging down as she unleashed tremendous killing intent.
The attack sliced …‹…‹through Emery’s [Aegis of Void] easily, like a hot knife cutting through butter. At the same time, it inflicted a deep gash in his chest. Blood splattered everywhere as a maniacal grin marred the grand magus’ face.
“Now Die!”
The second strike was aimed right at his neck, but by this time Emery was able to phase out his form and step away from the attack.
Before he was about to counter, Emery once more shocked the female grand magus, as he casually showed the same gesture of raising his arm into the air; suddenly an identical dark energy blade was formed.
