The Sea God's finger, calloused by eons of divine storms, gently pressed against Kent's forehead.
A surge of power — no, an ocean of power — flooded into him like a tidal wave breaking through the dam of mortality.
Kent's eyes widened. The golden lightning within his meridians churned violently, caught in the rising storm of deep azure spiritual energy. His sea of consciousness quaked, and the glowing rune of the Heart in Sword pulsed like a beating heart as ancient sea runes etched themselves along its edges.
His dantian exploded with light.
The barrier that had held him at Mid Earth Immortal Magus for months shattered — and in its place bloomed an unshakable new foundation.
He had stepped into Peak Earth Immortal Magus Realm, but more than that… his aura held a divine undertone now, as if the ocean itself answered his soul's call.
Kent gasped, the divine resonance still humming in his bones.
The Sea God's gaze remained calm, but there was the faintest smile on his lips.
