Golden light erupted from my body.
The moment I released my pure Soul Force and allowed it to flow into my Origin of Fire, the golden radiance surrounding me suddenly changed. Rather than remaining close to my body, the Soul Force surged outward and began gathering above me.
Flames erupted from the golden light, rapidly taking shape until an enormous fire phoenix appeared above my body, its wings stretching across the void as crimson and golden flames rolled from its feathers.
The phoenix was enormous, and every movement it made caused the surrounding void to tremble. Its eyes burned with a terrifying intelligence, while the flames surrounding its body continued growing stronger as I fed more of my Soul Force into it.
The Eternal's expression changed instantly.
His eyes widened as he stared at the enormous phoenix hovering above me.
"Grade Two Soul Force…"
His voice was barely more than a mutter, but I heard it clearly.
I understood what had shocked him.
