Chapter 333: Luke Creates His Own Version of Azrion’s Unwritten Art!

Both Sevaroth and the Origin Titan reacted at almost the same time, their eyes widening as they finally understood what Luke was constructing.

The Origin Titan could now feel the difference clearly because the energy, gravity, and other forces generated by the celestial bodies were beginning to move through the funnel-like alignment instead of simply interfering with one another.

If Luke could withstand the burden created when all of that power reached a single point, then the combined force of those systems could actually be used instead of merely detonated.

Sevaroth understood even more.

Only two words escaped his mouth.

"Cosmic Eclipse."

That was exactly what Luke was preparing.

Cosmic Eclipse was a technique developed by Caelith herself, and she had personally demonstrated its principle to Luke during their training inside the Time Chamber, where he had witnessed just how absurd the technique became once enough celestial systems were involved.

Caelith’s Cosmic System had always possessed one fundamental limitation.

One Cosmic System contained a fixed collection of celestial bodies, including its planets, moons, stars, asteroids, and other objects, which meant that although she could combine the power of everything inside a single system, any additional Cosmic Systems she created still functioned as separate entities.

After years of refining her own fighting methods, Caelith created Cosmic Eclipse to overcome that restriction.

Instead of treating every Cosmic System separately, the technique arranged their celestial bodies into a formation capable of gathering and channeling their combined strength through one path, allowing multiple systems to contribute toward a single attack.

That was how Cosmic Punch could evolve into something far more destructive.

"Cosmic Eclipse Punch"

A normal Cosmic Punch drew upon one Cosmic System.

Cosmic Eclipse Punch could draw upon many.

At her peak, Caelith couldn’t destroy a galaxy with the power of a single Cosmic Punch, but once enough Cosmic Systems were combined through Cosmic Eclipse, that limitation disappeared.

Luke, however, still wasn’t finished.

"Huh..."

He slowly drew in a deep breath while forcing his mind to remain steady, because the twelve copies behind him still required constant subconscious control to maintain their Cosmic Systems, and even a brief lapse in concentration could destabilize the entire formation.

That was also why Luke had chosen Elythos for this attempt.

The Armor of the Cosmic Heart helped him manage and manipulate cosmic power, reducing some of the burden involved in maintaining the celestial systems while his attention remained divided across thirteen bodies.

Even with Elythos helping, Luke could already feel the pressure building inside his mind.

Unfortunately, what he intended to do next would place even greater strain on him, and he knew there was a very real chance that the moment he activated the next part of his plan, his concentration would break for at least an instant.

’Come, Crown of Creation.’

Luke called upon the halo belonging to the Cosmic Heart Titan, and almost immediately, golden-white radiance gathered behind his head before forming into a luminous halo that slowly rotated while pulsing with dense Cosmic Energy.

He still didn’t understand why the Crown of Void hadn’t manifested automatically after he transformed into Vorthar, but he didn’t have the time to think about that now, because the moment the halo appeared, his control over the thirteen Cosmic Systems noticeably improved, while the twelve Cosmic Heart copies behind him continued supplying their own Cosmic Energy to stabilize the celestial formation.

The strain inside Luke’s mind finally eased enough for him to focus on the next step.

He drew in another deep breath while staring at the crimson-eyed Origin Titan standing at the center of the distant landscape.

’It’s do or die.’

Luke wanted to know where his current limit truly stood.

He wanted to see the peak of what he could produce as a D-Rank being, and more importantly, whether everything he possessed together could finally break through the Peak B-Rank barrier and perhaps even touch the threshold of Half-A-Rank.

"Absolute Strength!"

The moment Luke activated Azrion’s Ultimate Ability, the muscles beneath Elythos swelled violently as power flooded every part of Vorthar’s seventy-foot body, while his already terrifying physical output instantly multiplied threefold.

For the first time since Luke had begun preparing his attack, the Origin Titan’s expression changed completely.

"This..."

His crimson eyes narrowed as he stared at Luke, because what had just happened didn’t properly follow the normal rules governing physical strength in this universe.

Then again, Azrion had never been an existence particularly interested in following such rules, even during the age of the Titans, because his ultimate ambition had been insane enough that he had created an entire fighting method around one impossible goal.

To construct a body capable of carrying the universe itself.

Luke had inherited that madness.

And now he used it.

"AZRION’S UNWRITTEN ARTS"

The moment the Unwritten Arts awakened, the sky of the trial world began to darken.

The change wasn’t caused by clouds or the Cosmic Systems above, because behind Luke, an immense phantom slowly emerged from the gathering Force, taking the form of Azrion with a calm expression and an impossibly large body that stretched across the horizon.

Its head seemed to reach the very ceiling of this artificial world, although that clearly wasn’t Azrion’s true limit; the trial world itself simply wasn’t large enough to contain a manifestation any greater.

Luke raised his hand.

"First Move! Heaven’s Palm!"

The phantom of Azrion responded.

Its arm slowly lifted before descending toward the Origin Titan, as though the heavens themselves had decided to press down upon the thousand-foot crystalline figure.

At the same moment, Force gathered across the darkened sky and rapidly condensed into a spectral palm nearly three kilometers across.

The palm was made entirely from the unique Force wielded by the Atlas Titan, and even before it fully materialized, the pressure rolling from it caused the atmosphere below to distort.

Luke still didn’t stop.

He couldn’t afford to.

Absolute Strength would last only ten seconds, and once those ten seconds ended, the physical foundation supporting what he was about to attempt would disappear with it.

The thirteen Cosmic Systems immediately began moving.

Their carefully aligned celestial bodies shifted together until the entire funnel-like formation passed directly in front of the largest sun, and as planets, moons, comets, asteroids, and stars covered its radiance, darkness spread across the entire trial world like an eclipse had swallowed the sky.

Luke then moved Heaven’s Palm directly before the cosmic alignment.

The instant the three-kilometer spectral palm entered the path of the eclipse, black Void Energy ignited across its surface.

Nyx’s Authority of Severance had entered the attack.

Luke currently possessed only the aspects he had already awakened, so he poured both **Physical Severance** and **Energy Severance** into Heaven’s Palm, causing thin black lines to spread throughout the gigantic manifestation while its original Force remained underneath.

If Luke had already awakened deeper forms of Severance involving things such as distance, life, or other fundamental connections, the attack could have become far more terrifying, because at Nyx’s true peak, Severance possessed the potential to cut apart things on a scale that ordinary beings couldn’t even comprehend.

For now, however, physical matter and energy were enough.

The Heaven’s Palm, now carrying the Authority of Severance, floated directly before the thirteen aligned Cosmic Systems.

Luke finally raised his own giant hand and positioned it along the path of the eclipse, making sure his palm, Heaven’s Palm, and every celestial body behind it formed one continuous line toward the Origin Titan.

Then his hand slowly began descending.

"COSMIC SEVERINITY ECLIPSE PUNCH!!!"

The instant those words thundered across the trial world, Luke curled his fingers inward.

Sevaroth’s expression immediately froze.

"What the fuck?!"

The Crypt Titan stared at the three-kilometer Heaven’s Palm in disbelief because Luke had just attempted something that wasn’t part of Azrion’s First Art at all.

He was trying to turn Heaven’s Palm into a fist.

Azrion’s Unwritten Arts did contain methods involving larger portions of his manifested body, but Luke’s current physique wasn’t supposed to be capable of bearing the backlash required to transform and control that much externalized Force.

Yet Luke wasn’t relying only on Azrion.

He was using the gravitational flow of Cosmic Eclipse itself to help force the gigantic spectral fingers inward, making the thirteen Cosmic Systems act upon Heaven’s Palm while Vorthar carried the resulting burden.

Even then, what he was trying to do was absurd.

The three-kilometer palm began moving.

Its spectral fingers trembled under the combined gravitational pressure before slowly bending inward, one after another, while the surrounding air distorted under the Force required to control something of that scale.

Sevaroth’s eyes widened further.

’He’s actually doing it?!’

At the same time, the backlash reached Luke.

BOOOOM!

Invisible pressure crashed through Vorthar’s entire body, concentrating most heavily along his raised arm as the muscles beneath Elythos tightened under a weight that would have torn apart a weaker Titan instantly.

Luke gritted his teeth.

If he had attempted this with Azrion alone, he wasn’t even sure whether the Atlas Titan’s current D-Rank body could have completed the transformation of the palm.

Vorthar was different.

This fusion had been created from the Atlas Titan and the Void Titan, and at its true peak, its existence was meant to bear the weight of the Endless Void itself.

Luke was nowhere near that peak yet, but if his present Vorthar body couldn’t carry even the weight of his own attack for several seconds, then the fusion wasn’t worthy of that future in the first place.

"HAHHHHHH!"

Luke roared as his fingers continued closing.

"COME DOWN!!!"

He clenched his fist completely.

At the same instant, the enormous Heaven’s Palm responded.

BOOOOOOM!

All five spectral fingers finally folded inward, compressing the three-kilometer manifestation into the shape of a gigantic fist.

Sevaroth’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.

"He actually did it..."
