Chapter 2488: The power of a cornered beast
At first glance, those five treasures seemed almost laughably weak. They emitted no pressure, no aura, not even the faintest ripple of energy. To any ordinary eye, they were nothing more than fragments of broken relics.
Yet as he focused on them, Intu’s eyes widened with shock and horror.
"How did you get those!?"
The Soul Cursing King could not restrain his scream. His voice tore through the void, laced with disbelief and a tremor of fear he could not suppress.
Cain did not answer.
Behind his mask, a silent smile formed as the five pieces flashed toward his arms. Two fragments fused over his left arm, three over his right, sealing around his forearms and hands like living armor. They had seemed inert before—mere scraps of ancient metal. But the instant they connected, their true nature awakened.
"BOOOOOOMMMM!"
A torrent of bright purple plasma erupted from the fragments and flooded through Cain’s body. It did not clash with his existing powers; it merged with them. The scarlet might of the Power of Chaos roared in response. The golden force of The Flow shimmered and expanded. The white essence of his Ancestor Power surged like a tidal wave.
The energies intertwined, harmonized, and then exploded outward in a storm of overwhelming force.
"Hahahaha! Amazing!"
Cain could not stop the laughter that burst from his lips. The power granted by just five fragments of the Sacred Treasure was staggering. His physical capabilities rose sharply, every fiber of muscle tightening with explosive strength. The armor encasing his arms felt almost indestructible, as though no force in existence could shatter it.
Just five fragments.
