Max closed his eyes and entered a calm meditative state.
Then something changed inside him. At first, it was only a faint point of light in the depths of Max's body. Then another appeared. Then another. One by one, countless specks of light began shining across his body like stars appearing in a dark sky.
It was beautiful, too beautiful for a battlefield. His body did not burn with ordinary aura, and it did not release bloodline pressure. It did not erupt with lightning, flame, dragon scales, divine veins, or sword force.
Instead, he began to shine like a night sky filled with distant stars. The light was dark, deep, and vast, and every star within it seemed to contain a separate distance, a separate direction, and a separate space folded beyond imagination.
Revona's eyes sharpened as the Null Origin Tide touched the starlight. Nothing happened.
