Chapter 177: Suppressing the Royal Capital
The mana visibly surged towards Orion’s body, forming a colossal whirlpool as it was aggressively pulled into him, guided directly into refining his channels, physique, and even his bloodlines simultaneously.
Viren watched in complete shock and awe, jaw agape and eyes widened to their limits as he witnessed the impossible spectacle unfolding before him.
“What in heaven’s name…” Viren murmured hoarsely, unable to tear his gaze away. “His body is actively devouring the Origin Mana? Just what exactly is this boy…?”
In mere moments, every last drop of dense mana in the pool had vanished, greedily absorbed by Orion’s now profoundly transformed body and awakened bloodlines.
At last, the violent storm of mana settled. Orion, utterly spent and finally reaching his absolute limit, felt darkness envelop his consciousness gently.
His battered yet vastly strengthened body slowly fell backward into the now-empty Origin Mana Pool, completely unconscious.
The chamber returned to a sudden, profound silence.
Viren stood frozen in stunned disbelief, his breathing heavy as he stared at Orion’s unconscious yet undeniably transformed form lying peacefully within the empty pool.
After a long moment, Viren slowly exhaled deeply, gathering himself as a complex mixture of relief, astonishment, and profound respect surged through him.
“Absolutely monstrous,” he whispered quietly, admiration evident in his voice. “Today’s events… no, this young man—he will shake the foundations of this continent.”
Viren stepped swiftly forward, carefully lifting Orion from the now tranquil pool. Despite his worry, a deep, genuine smile formed on Viren’s face as he carefully carried Orion back towards the chamber’s exit.
