BXBX NOVEL Chapter 586 - Frozen Palace
Nevertheless, the strength coursing through his veins right now made him feel exhilarated as he had never been as strong as he was right now.
Dense thunder currents spread through his entire body, and only a fraction of them were released.
Despite that, the thunder currents Xyna could see were already more than enough for her to be forced to enter a defensive stance.
Even though she had beaten up Jarid just a moment before, his demeanor had changed within a single moment.
As one of the strongest prodigies, she had her connections to figure out the secrets of the other potentially dangerous participants of the liberation tournament.
Jarid was one of them which allowed Xyna to learn about Jarid\'s unique constitution.
She also knew that his constitution was too strong for his body to handle and that it had to be sealed with multiple seals.
Because of that, Xyna was not only able to figure out that Jarid\'s current strength was something he could barely handle, but also that it was much stronger than she had initially estimated.
As such, she set aside devising strategies to fight Jason for now because Jarid had become an opponent worthy of her attention!
With the White tiger spirit descension, her strength had increased exponentially, allowing her to fight everyone below the Prismar stage without sustaining too many injuries.
However, the thunder currents released from Jarid\'s body had already reached the Prismar stage, and he had barely unlocked a total of three seals right now.
Both Xyna and Jarid released their strongest technique while their body reached the peak of their current limitation, but Jarid went one step further and broke through his limits to be at par with Xyna.
Turning into an existence that looked like a humanoid thunder elemental, Jarid\'s speed and lethality increased while his mana consumption decreased to the bare minimum.
Meanwhile, Xyna\'s body was slowly transforming as her lean body frame turned bulkier.
By replicating the spirit of the white tiger, the lethality of Xyna\'s light affinity increased while her mana consumption decreased, as the technique absorbed her life force, draining it slowly.
As she used a secret technique, she had to supply it with her own life force and nutrition.
Jason\'s fusion and fortified soul conjunction could be considered as a state similar to a secret technique, the only difference being that he didn\'t have to activate anything.
While Xyna and Jarid approached each other at a rapid speed, devastating the surrounding area, Jason was occupied with the small group of three prodigies who were trying to fight against the frozen fire that froze everything in its wake.
Jason had more than enough time to test out Solaris\' strength in his new form, which was even more interesting than he could have expected.
Who would have thought that Artemis and Solaris, who had incompatible elements as their affinity, were working together in such a weird way?
Jason was definitely not one of them, but he felt that it was extremely beneficial for his soulbonds to support and amplify each other.
He trusted his soulbonds with his life and it made Jason happy to see that his polar opposite soulbonds were now working in perfect sync and shared a bond of trust.
The Hran, Hamaa, and Fyrmn team had tried to attack him several times with the exact same tactic, only to realise that Jason\'s mana consumption was as low, or even lower than the mana required for their combined, multi-layered attack.
That was only logical in Jason\'s opinion because he only had to summon a small flame to deflect each attack.
Despite that, he acted as if it was draining him in order to stall for some time to test the waters about several things.
There were too many things he was curious about, but Jason wanted to fight his opponents in close combat right now.
As such, he didn\'t want to continue fighting as they were currently doing.
At the same time, the fight that occurred behind him was extremely interesting, wanting him to leave his own and watch it instead of trying to make sense of what was happening from far away.
Jarid released dense thunder currents like never before, and his combat strength seemed to be at par with Xyna\'s despite her higher cultivation base!
Her secret technique was also extremely interesting, and the two behind him generated way more curiosity in his mind than the group of three in front of him.
All of them may have a cultivation base at the 8th and 9th Lique stage, but that was just equivalent to what Jason could reach owing to his fusion with Artemis.
Even without the fusion, his standard strength wouldn\'t be much worse as long as Artemis or Petri occupied his mana core!
With Byakur in his hand, Jason decided to test out how strong his opponents were in close combat, which was something he looked forward to.
Based on his observation, the Hamaa prodigy was the strongest, followed by the Hran while the female Fyrmn prodigy had to deal with several problems while facing him!
This was mostly because the prodigy of the Fyrmn race had tried to manipulate his mind with her affinity, only to notice that Jason was immune to her mind attacks.
Until now, mind attacks had never worked on Jason, but that was mostly because of his Emperor Eyes that had supported him ceaselessly.
They had never really betrayed him in dangerous situations, but Jason knew that he was once again too dependent on his eyes\' unique ability.
It was the same situation he had been in several years ago, the only difference was that he had learned from the mistake of trusting that his eyes were able to perceive everything, which was not the fact.
Otherwise, they might have been omnipotent, which was certainly not the case!
Jarid used his unique daggers that increased the lethality of thunder attributed mana that had been inserted into it. He slashed at Xyna\'s hands that seemed to take the form of real paws as she deflected them with the razor-sharp claws she had released.
Several minutes had already passed since they started fighting and both were worn out, covered in bruises and small cuts that tore open due to the rapid movements they had to make in order to evade their opponent\'s attack.
Xyna had already used up a large amount of mana even before her fight against Jarid had begun, and she could only curse at Jason\'s freezing icicle attack while staring at Jarid, who was breathing heavily.
Jarid\'s body was aching heavily, and he could barely move, and his only hope was that Xyna was in the same state, worn out and extremely tired.
However, this thought drove Jarid with the necessary momentum to continue fighting, while it was exactly the same with Xyna, who hoped that Jarid would collapse first.
At the same time, Jason was full of energy, and his entire mana core was overflowing with mana as his eyes gleamed in excitement.
Fighting against the group of three had been extremely exciting, despite his earlier disappointment.
Unfortunately, it was almost time for his fusion to end.
Recalling the exhaustion that had overcome him after Petri\'s fusion had been completed, Jason knew that he wouldn\'t be able to overcome the next wave of exhaustion.
Jason was aware of the fact that he wouldn\'t be able to fight directly afterward.
As such, he had to end the first battle royale right now!
There was only one minute left before his fusion would end but that was more than enough time for him to complete everything he had planned in his mind.
With both Solaris and Artemis\' help his plan should work out.
Because of that, he retreated from the group of three prodigies he was currently fighting, only to soar a few meters high into the air.
Initially, the Hran, Hamaa, and Fyrmn prodigies wanted to follow him, only to notice that he was still full of vigor, while they were already exhausted.
Yet, the moment Jason halted in the air, and turned around, their faces paled.
Without any prior warning, Jason released his frozen fire by supplying every ounce of his overflowing mana into it.
The cold air that permeated the entire colosseum made the mercury drop several degrees further, only for the entire arena to come to a standstill.
Some were unable to move, others didn\'t want to move, and it was only Jason\'s hand, which was holding a sky-blue flame, that pointed towards the ground.
Only a moment later he let go of the flame, allowing it to wreak havoc.
Jason\'s sight blurred for a moment and a headache overcame him which caused his senses to be distorted.
He could only feel the surrounding cold, and the moment he reopened his eyes, the entire arena had turned into a blue palace; a Frozen palace!
