God's Eyes (Web Novel)

After hearing Kiat sigh deeply, Jason acted instinctively.

He pushed himself away to increase his distance from Kiat.

Unfortunately, he was already too late, as the Sacred Elvyr released his energy explosively.

With his mana and the lesser divine energy merged within his body, Kiat's entire being was brimming with uncontainable energy.

A faint, whitish-green hue enveloped him tightly, as his emerald eyes met Jason's.

Only a moment later, the Sacred Elvyr disappeared from his position, only to appear above Jason.

It seemed that he simply pushed the flat of his hand forward, but stopped right before hitting the designated target.

Yet, that was not what Jason felt as Kiat's flat hand halted right before his chest.

His Emperor Eyes could clearly sense what was about to happen, forcing him to grit his teeth as he was unable to move.

Kiat had confined him to the spot he was standing in and restricted the space around him with the use of both the spatial and wind affinity.

Because of that, it was easy for the Sacred Elvyr to use the same affinities, enhanced by lesser divine energy, to blast him in the ground.

With a simple push, Jason was mercilessly shoved into the ground that cracked open as rubble and rocks flew all around him.

A crater of five meters was created, and Jason was lying in the middle of it.

Yet, instead of accepting defeat and staying on the ground, he used his tail to push himself upward.

The push was subtle, and barely enough for him to lose touch with the ground.

But that was already more than enough for him to manifest a spatial portal below him, through which he disappeared.

At this very moment, a wind spear shot towards him, piercing his shoulder as he emerged several kilometers farther away.

Looking at his scaled armor, and the crimson blood that trickled down his shoulder, Jason smiled oddly.

It took him just a short moment to tear the wind spear out of his shoulder that made fresh blood trickle out of the injury, but it was only moments later that he felt the pain.

But he had no time to endure it and Jason released his soul fusion with Petri before allowing Solaris to enter his mana core.

After a few seconds, he fused with Solaris, before enveloping his entire body with its flames.

Using the unique abilities of the Life essence flame that Solaris had adapted, the wound on his shoulder was healing at a rapid pace.

To enhance the recovery speed further, he used his moonlight mana and divine energy which made the bleeding stop almost instantaneously.

However, that was not something Jason could pay much attention to.

He had just finished his soul fusion with Petri, and was now entering another soul fusion.

Earlier, this would have been impossible as his body, mana core, and soul would have required a certain period to cooldown and recuperate from the strain each of them took by accepting a soul fusion.

But this was not the case anymore!

To be precise, Jason was currently able to undergo four to five different soul fusions in a single day, while each of them could be maintained for several days.

This was possible owing to the changes every single one of his companions is it his soulbonds or Jennifer had undergone in the last decade.

Not only was everyone's soul connection unbreakably firm, but it was so deeply rooted within all of them that they could fuse with one another at a moment's notice.

The only thing Jason was missing out on was the ability to fuse with multiple soulbonds at once.

However, that was not something he could be bothered about right now.

After all, he had to overcome the fury of the Sacred Elvyr that had emerged right in front of him.

Kiat's eyes were fueled with anger, and Jason could clearly understand why this was the case.

'The influence of my soulbonds…'

Jason knew that his mind was heavily influenced when he underwent a soul fusion.

This was also something he could clearly sense while being fused with Solaris.

The Origin flame had evolved by devouring a Life essence flame shard.

But this didn't change its opinion to feel like burning down every single existence that dared to stand in its way.

Instead, owing to the dragon flame it had devoured earlier, Solaris was now even more inclined to mindless destruction.

Thus, while enveloping Jason with a thick layer of compressed, blazing flames, it burned through the surrounding area, reducing everything around him to smoke and ash.

Solaris' flames didn't even think of sparing the surrounding cultivation energies.

They were either devoured or completely burned.

This prevented Kiat from making use of the surrounding energy, let alone winds to attack Jason mercilessly.

In fact, the Sacred Elvyr quickly understood that it was getting increasingly difficult to maintain control over the wind spears which he had shot at Jason.

Yet, even before they could reach him, Solaris had burned them thoroughly, using some of the Divine energy he could utilize.

While being fused, Solaris was able to use everything that belonged to Jason. This also worked the other way around.

Thus, in mere seconds, everything around Jason turned black as he released Solaris' flames, materializing a huge black dragon head with golden eyes and a white glowing mane.

Spitting out the dragon's flames, he demolished the protective layer of the wind currents that enveloped Kiat, devouring them completely.

However, that was not all because Jason was not yet done with his attack.

Replacing Solaris in his mana core with Artemis, he fused with her at once.

Through this, he underwent a rapid transformation, and Solaris' flames turned sky blue as Artemis' soul fusion influenced Solaris' flames as well.

Solaris and Artemis were much closer to each other than any of the other soulbonds were.

As such, their bond was unique too.

Thus, the golden-eyed black dragon with a white mane turned into a glacier dragon head that spit out freezing cold flames.

The change from extreme heat to extreme cold took only seconds, and this was what caused Kiat's eyes to widen once again.

Right now, the spar was not a matter of testing one's strength, or of pride to win against someone at a higher strength.

With each passing moment, Jason's determination to overwhelm Kiat grew stronger while his eyes and entire demeanor clearly radiated the desire to make use of his highest combat prowess to fight against an existence that was far stronger than him.

And he was ready to use everything he could!

With the desire to emerge victorious fueling him with vigor, Jason let out a roar.

The God's Halo reacted in time, and began to rotate, pulling the purest portions of the cultivation energies in his surroundings towards him.

At the same time, it provided him with a tremendous amount of divine energy, and Artemis, giving the glacier dragon's breath the chance to show itself at its strongest.

The dragon breath reached a distance of more than a kilometer, and it was sustained for more than three seconds before it died down.

What was left behind was only an overly exhausted Jason, whose appearance had reverted to his original form.

The God's Halo behind him was faintly glowing, and rotating subtly as it attracted the surrounding energies.

It was ready to empower Jason if necessary.

However, as of now, this would hurt him more than helping out.

He was not yet accustomed to the energy he had just wielded.

To be precise, his mind was ready, but his body had yet to accept the fact that his strength had increased to the extent to which he was able to fight beings much stronger than he was.

If Jason were to know that he had attained the combat prowess threshold of a Primordial of a younger generation…he wouldn't be able to tell whether he should be proud or not.

After all, the biggest question was whether he had attained this prowess with or without having undergone the True Soul awakening!

But all of that was not something Jason could bother thinking about right now as he looked at his hands with a bright smile on his face.

'I am much stronger than expected!!'

Meanwhile, Kiat was hovering in the air, his hair fluttering in the wind, with an incomprehensible smile on his face as he remarked,

"Good Job"

Only to add the last word in his head,

'...Monster'
