"I won''t suffer alone," Zkeron muttered, his voice dripping with hatred. His dark and furious gaze bore into Lein, as if trying to pierce him with sheer malice.


    The remaining dark energy in his body began to gather into his heart, seeping into every crevice and cavity. The process was swift, like a serpent slithering into its prey.


    The more dark energy entered Zkeron''s heart, therger it grew. Its shape became grotesque and terrifying—the ck veins coiling around it seemed alive, pulsing with a chilling rhythm.


    "Heart of the Void," Zkeron muttered weakly, yet his words carried a deadly intent.


    The massive heart, once pulsating inside his chest, now floated in the air, rotating slowly and emitting an increasingly intense ck aura.


    Its beat echoed throughout the void, exerting a crushing pressure on every being nearby.


    "Hahaha… This curse will kill you," he said in a raspy voice. Hisughter was bitter, filled with deep resentment.


    As his words ended, the heart suddenly shattered. From its cracks, ck blood sprayed in all directions, poisoning the void with an ominous aura. The emptiness trembled violently, as if unable to withstand the unleashed power.


    From the fractured void, metallic ck chains emerged with no discernible origin. Each chain moved with terrifying speed, targeting Lein as he continued crafting the constetion in the air. The chains screeched as they shot forward, leaving a trail of lethal ck mist.


    "What is that?" Lein muttered with a hint of curiosity. His eyes narrowed as he observed the approaching chains. He had never encountered anything like this before.


    "Lord Lein, beware of those chains!" Hanes shouted from afar, his voice filled with urgency.


    He appeared nervous, his eyes reflecting deep concern.


    "That''s the old man''s deadly curse skill," he exined further. Hanes was well aware of the curse''s reputation—a technique capable of destroying even high-level spirit bodies.


    "A curse, is it?" Lein muttered softly, his tone unbothered.


    However, a glint of inspiration shed in his eyes. With swift movements, hepleted the strange constetion he had been forming.


    The constetion was indistinct, almost like an abstract pattern. However, upon closer inspection, it resembled an elephant with a long, curved trunk.


    Buzz…


    The constetion,posed of dozens of stars, descended directly onto the ck chains. The moment the constetion''s points struck the cursed chains, something horrifying urred.


    Boom…


    A massive explosion shook the void. Its sound was deafening, and the shockwave of energy swept across everything in its path.


    Irregr cracks spread across the empty space as if the dimension itself could not withstand the impact. ck and white light intermingled, creating a scene of utter devastation.


    "Run!!!" Hanes shouted in panic.


    His face turned pale, reflecting a profound fear, as though witnessing the apocalypse unfold before his eyes. Without hesitation, he activated his spirit body and shot off at an incredible speed.


    Lyra, who had previously hesitated, also sprang into action. In an instant, her body transformed into its spirit form, and she fled as quickly as possible, leaving a trail of blue mist in the air.


    The explosion was so terrifying that anyone in its vicinity instinctively knew that staying would mean certain death.

    Other beings present felt the same threat.


    Aurora and the old man utilized their various tricks to escape. They vanished in an instant, leaving the explosion behind without the slightest desire to continue fighting.


    Aurelius, who had stood arrogantly before, now transformed into a spirit form resembling an angel. Large white wings extended from his back, radiating a golden glow.


    However, despite his majestic appearance, he immediately flew away at tremendous speed, proving that even he did not want to be caught in the destruction.


    On the other hand, Kath transformed into a transparent dragon with gleaming lightning horns. He pped his enormous, powerful wings, generating airwaves strong enough to obliterate the ground beneath him. With a graceful yet urgent movement, he soared away from the center of the explosion, leaving trails of lightning in the air.


    Dom… Domm…


    Explosion after explosion continued to echo, annihting everything in the void. Massive rocks floating in space were instantly reduced to fragments by the shockwaves of the star constetion''s sts.


    The energy radiated so intensely that it spread far and wide, destroying small inds scattered around the battle area. The sound of destruction reverberated, creating an atmosphere of tension and utter devastation.


    Zkeron, still trapped within Lein''s sacred sword prison, watched the massive explosions with a gaze full of regret.


    His eyes—deep, hollow sockets devoid of flesh—widened as he realized the waves of destruction were heading straight for him.


    No one could know what thoughts crossed his mind at that moment, but an undeniable aura of despair emanated from his frozen, motionless stance.


    Doomm...


    Doom...


    The waves of holy energy continued to surge, mercilessly sweeping everything in their path. The empty space began to lose its stability, creating cracks that expanded relentlessly.


    Amidst the chaos, Lein stood calmly, observing the destructive scene from within his


    Dream Sphere


    —a transparent, softly glowing bubble shield strong enough to protect him from the constetion''s explosions.


    "So beautiful," Lein murmured softly, his voice nearly drowned by the roar of explosions around him.


    He watched the destruction as an artist might admire their masterpiece, as if the devastation he had created was a work of art.


    Behind hisposed demeanor, a transparent panel appeared before his eyes, disying notifications that detailed the results of his star constetion attack.


    [You have destroyed Wolf Ind… NO EXP]


    [You have destroyed Goblin Ind… NO EXP]


    …


    A series of notifications appeared rapidly on the panel, informing him that the small inds and their inhabitants had been obliterated.


    Yet no experience points were gained from the destruction. Lein remained unfazed, his face expressionless. He was well aware that killing low-level creatures like goblins or wolves would not grant him any experience.


    But then, his eyes widened. A different notification appeared on the panel, causing him to hold his breath for a moment. The glowing text drew Lein''s full attention.


    [You have killed Guardian - Zkeron, gained +3 level increase]
