"!"
Everyone around Greg looked shocked and confused at the sa ti.
The mont they saw him collapse onto the floor with a twitching body, they looked stupified.
The very first one to act was Eliana and Zane. They knew that if Greg dies now, they could forget about entering the Altar and obtaining the keys.
Without him, their aim to obtain the Creator's power would be impossible, so they needed to do anything to save him.
However, just as they were about to move, a huge explosion broke out from Greg's body, making the two experts to halt instantly.
"What?!"
Not just Zane and Eliana, but everyone around Greg looked at the breathtaking phenonon with widened eyes.
Right before them, golden flas started to appear around Greg's body in the form of lotus petals, while his whole body was engulfed with the crazy swirling wind.
It was like he was surrounded by a tornado, ready to tear anyone into hundreds of pieces in his close proximity.
As this happened, the golden flas slowly started to move, and bit by bit they started to lt together into the whirlwind around Greg.
The sight was very similar to when Greg used his First and Second Flows at the sa ti, but with a slight difference.
Instead of the wind vortexes that were covered with golden flas, right now the two elents mixed together and ford a completely new one.
It was neither fla nor wind, but instead, it was both at the sa ti. The golden flas which were half-transparent around Greg's body didn't burn as normal fire should, but rather swirled around his body like a typhoon.
What was even more surprising that even though it was burning around him like flas from the scariest part of hell, it had no sound at all.
Just like his First Flow's characteristic, it was dead silent. If soone didn't see the crazy phenonon around him, they wouldn't be even able to detect the change around him at all!
Even the crazy heat that could be felt all the ti from the distance was now hardly noticeable. It was scary.
However, no power ca without consequences and this was quite visible on Greg's body too. As the Fla Waves ford around his body, the twitching and shaking motions of his body beca even greater and visible.
"Let's help him!", said Eliana with a serious expression and stepped forward.
But instantly as she stepped closer to Greg's body, which was around 5 ters away from her, the temperature around her skyrocketed to insane heights instantly.
"What the hell? This heat could rival even with those on the God rank! Just what is happening with him?"
As Eliana and Zane thought about this, they started to walk closer and closer to Greg, however, with each step they took, the heat around them would beco twice as powerful.
*BAM!*
Just as they wanted to take another step, from Greg's body, another explosion broke out, but this ti it was several tis powerful than before.
*Swish!*
Appearing before Eliana, Zane activated his power and protected her from the golden assault, while in the back Hogan defended the three kids, Jay and Cloud with his barrier.
"This is the doing of the fruit or what?", asked Hogan with clenched teeth as he did everything to maintain the barrier around them.
However, the explosion from Greg's body was not only extrely powerful to the point where it could rival a God rank's attack, but it had destructive characteristics because of the flas.
Simply as the Wind Flas flew in all directions because of the explosion, everything they touched lted away without a second thought.
Even God's Tree that stood proudly and strong a few monts ago now turned to burnt ash because of the half-transparent Wind Flas.
The sight was simply too scary. To think that this power ca only from a boy who was on the Ascender rank... It was shocking.
Using his Celestial Serpentines power, Zane teleported away into Hogan's barrier and looked at Greg with a serious expression.
Never in his wildest dream did he think that sothing like this would happen. A boy, who was not even on the God rank, made him to use his power to escape.
It was outrageous!
As he watched the happenings with a sharp glare, suddenly before them Greg started to move and sat back up slowly.
Crossing his legs into a lotus position, while putting his hands together, Greg clenched his teeth together and started to ignore the pain he was feeling.
Even like his muscles were twitching like crazy, he just frowned slightly and concentrated on the sight inside his body.
Finally, all the 25 points between his First and Second Flow have been ford, making him to turn excited.
However, because he achieved this, a great consequence ca with it too. And that was the insane pain he was currently feeling.
"That is the pain you feel during Soul Tempering. From now on, every ti you activate the First Layer to usage, this pain will welco you. Naturally, only until you won't break into the Mind Grade."
First Layer was the term when Greg activated both his First and Second Flow at the sa ti.
Because the layer was what connected the two elents together, calling it First Layer was kind of expected.
"Is there a ti limit on how much I can use them at the sa ti, or it only depends on my pain tolerance?"
"It depends on you. The longer you use them together, the stronger the pain will beco, but at the sa ti, your Soul will beco stronger too."
When Greg heard that there was finally no ti limit, he turned happy but instantly turned sour when he found out that the pain only beca greater the more he used his power.
Hearing that, Greg didn't know whether to laugh or cry at that statent. Right now, the pain he was feeling in his soul was almost unbearable.
If it wouldn't have been because of the insane amount of energy inside his body which made his body feel extrely relaxed, he would have already passed out.
"Well, at least I was able to form the First Layer. But as I can feel, I still have a bit of energy inside , so let's continue."
With that said, Greg closed his eyes and started to examine his Third Flow.
As he could see, there were a total of 20 points where he needed to form a bridge between his Second and Third Flow.
"With the amount of energy inside my body, I should be able to form 5 more at least."
As he said that, he cald his breathing down and started to make the layers to move.
*BAM!*
*BAM!*
One small explosion after another, Greg's sure broke to the surface, but with the only difference that it was not as strong as before.
This surprised Eliana and the others instantly. A few monts ago, Greg had a terrifying presence that was on par with that of a God rank, but now he didn't. He was back on the Ascender rank, which was very confusing.
"Didn't he break into the God rank previously? What happened?", asked Mila with confusion.
"He is using that fruit's power to strengthen all of his elents.", said quietly Joe from the side as he looked at Greg with bright eyes.
Eliana and Zane knew that sothing like this was happening, so without any hesitation, they retreated.
Now that it turned out that Greg's life was not in danger, the only thing they needed to do was to wait for Greg to finish consuming the fruit's energy.
Once he finished with that, they could finally leave this place once and for all.
*BAM!*
One eruption after another, Greg's presence started to climb toward the God rank once again, after the 6th outbreak, no more ca.
Slowly, Greg's twitching body started to calm down, and soon everything turned back to normal.
Normal, except for the sight that now everything was far away from the scenery the mont they first saw it.
The ground was scorched, God's Tree was burnt to ashes, while the ground below Greg's body was lted.
The beautiful scenery could be nowhere to be seen, but only a chaotic hole in the middle of the Flake Zone.
Sitting in one place as his body cald down, Greg slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
Seeing the sight that awaited him, he looked surprised and thought, "Did... Did I do all of this?"
"It seems the outco of completing one layer with God's Fruit was out of prediction. The energy was so great that it pushed your power to greater heights but look, it was worth it."
Greg hearing this looked at his palm and after thinking for a while he nodded.
"Yeah, it was. I an, I can feel that my first two elents beca several tis stronger."
While Greg was thinking about that, suddenly a palm appeared on his shoulder, making him to flinch slightly because of surprise.
"!"
Peeking behind his back, Greg saw as Jay was looking at him with a slight smile and start talking.
"You did great. Now let's get out of here. This place seems unstable. Looks like space will break down here."
And just like a reply to that statent, the whole place started to shake like crazy, making Greg and everyone else to turn alard instantly.
*TREMBLE!*
