Death... and me

Chapter 2032 New Divine Soul Power

Divine Soul Power was the fusion form of Divine Energy and Soul Power. However, the twins' group would not have Divine Energy in their Dantians and Cores anymore. That said, the Fusion still happened, but the power used in the Fusion was the Divine Origin Energy instead.

Yet, little did Rean, Roan, Kentucky, and Celis expect that their Soul Power would also evolve because of this. The breakthrough would obviously increase their Soul Power and Divine Sense. Yet, both of them went through a transformation as Divine Origin Energy mixed with it.

"This..." Rean could feel that transformation and immediately summoned some of his own Divine Soul Power. As soon as he did, he noticed that his Divine Soul Power had suddenly turned silver in color. It wasn't much, though. Divine Origin Energy didn't have a color to start with, nor did Soul Power. It was because he felt that transformation within himself that he noticed that shallow trace of silver color.

Roan, Kentucky, and Celis obviously noticed the same thing, so they quickly brought out some of their own Divine Soul Power. Sure enough, just like Rean, all of their Divine Soul Power had the same almost imperceptible silver color in it.

"Sister Orb, what happened here?" Roan quickly looked at Sister Orb.

However, Sister Orb was just as confused. [That wasn't something I was expecting. Divine Energy and Soul Power weren't supposed to have colors, after all. It only gets a color if you mix some elements in it. Give it a try and see if you feel any difference.]

Rean narrowed his eyes in response. "Even without the Fusion, we would be using Divine Origin Energy instead of Divine Energy. There would obviously have a difference even without any color changes. How would we know the difference between Divine Origin Energy and the previous Divine Energy?"

[That is simple,] Sister Orb answered. [Divine origin Energy is a lot more powerful, but that's pretty much it. It also allows you to bend space at will. Try to use your power and see if anything else happens. Perhaps your new Divine Soul Power simply got even stronger. After all, the Fusion was part of the reward system.]

Rean nodded and quickly gathered his Divine Soul Power together with Light Element before summoning a Light Element Arrow. It was basically a gathering of Light Element and Divine Soul Power that he molded like an Arrow. It couldn't even be considered a skill since such a simple method could be performed by anyone with a bare minimum control over their own Elemental Affinity and Divine Energy.

However, everyone quickly noticed that Rean's Light Element Arrow wasn't completely white. It did have the same hint of silver color over it. Rean then looked in the distance and saw a boulder. "Alright, this amount of Divine Soul Power should be just enough to pierce through that rock."

"Wrong!" Roan quickly corrected him. "This is the amount necessary back when we only had Divine Energy and Soul Power fused. The Fusion, this time, has Divine Origin Energy, so it will obviously be more powerful. Sister Orb, you should know this much. Usually, how many times stronger is Divine Origin Energy compared to normal Divine Energy?"

[Oh! It would usually be somewhere around two times as strong. Of course, you always used Divine Soul Power, which was quite a lot more powerful than normal Divine Energy before you broke through. That said, I expect your new Divine Soul Power to be somewhere at least two times as strong compared to other beings' Divine Origin Energy.]

Rean nodded and quickly reduced the Divine Soul Power in his Light Element Arrow by half. "Alright, then this should be more or less equivalent to what I would have needed to break through that rock before the Space Bending Realm breakthrough. Can I go ahead?"

Roan, Celis, Kentucky, Luan, and Sister Orb obviously had no objections to that.

Rean then got up and pretended he was holding a bow, which he used that same Light Element Arrow to pull.

"Is that even necessary?" Celis couldn't help but ask. He knew Rean should be able to shoot that arrow without doing any motions like that. There wouldn't be any difference whatsoever.

Rean shook his head in response. "Not really, but it looks cool, don't you think?"

"I think you look like a retard," Roan quickly answered.

Rean's mouth twitched a little. "H-Hmph! You just don't know how to enjoy the moment."

*Zoooch!*

Without waiting for an answer from Roan, Rean released his Light Element Arrow. He did not use any Space Power in that attack since he wanted to test the new Divine Soul Power. Obviously, there couldn't be anything unnecessary there.

Yet, Luan was the very first one to notice a difference through his eyes. 'Space Power!'

Rean and the rest also noticed it right after. As Rean's arrow flew in the boulder's direction, space began to bend around it. It was as if the arrow was bending the space to reach its destination even faster. No, it was doing exactly that!

"What?! I didn't use Space Power at all!" Rean only had the time to say that before the arrow arrived at its target. Rean had purposely shot it slowly so that they could watch it carefully, so it went as a shock that the arrow arrived there so fast after being released.

*Zuuuuu...*

As soon as the arrow touched the boulder, it went through it for a moment. Following that, the boulder began to crumble inward as if there was some force compressing it from the inside. In the next moment...

*Boom!*

The boulder exploded like a supernova, sending pieces of rock everywhere. Light Element, Divine Soul Power, and Space Power spread out at the same speed, increasing the power of the fragments.

ƥαṇdαηθνε| Of course, Rean had used very little energy in that attack, so the aftermath couldn't cause him or his group any harm at all. Nonetheless...

'Isn't this a little too powerful...?' Everyone thought at the same time.
