Victor's eyes finally opened.
"…Enough."
He exhaled and for the first time since he began suppressing, Victor stopped resisting.
He focused everything inward.
Every wisp of qi.
Every ounce of pressure.
Every fragment of spatial authority granted by the Void Emperor Bloodline.
He didn't let it explode outward.
He funneled it all into his dantian.
The world seemed to tilt.
Inside his body, something ancient and fundamental began to shift.

Victor's Nascent Soul trembled.
Cracks spread across its surface as it shedded like a cocoon splitting apart.
Golden-white light burst from within as the Nascent Soul began to melt, reforming into something far more abstract. No longer a static entity, it started to flow, stretch, and resonate with Victor's consciousness directly.
Soul and will blurred.
Dantian and mind overlapped.
