Realizing he couldn't defeat Aaron, King Oren closed his eyes, focusing inward as he tried to connect with his planet, not far away in the cosmic scale, its blue orb visible as a distant speck against the stars.
After a tense moment, he resonated with his planet, his strength surging temporarily, surpassing his eighth-star God rank. His power increased exponentially, breaking through the God rank barrier and reaching the elusive Eternal rank, his body glowing with a halo of mana that warped the vacuum around him.
Unlike the God rank, which granted the strength of a single planet, the Eternal rank meant harnessing the power of an entire solar system, the energy flowing into him like a cosmic river, his tattoos flaring brighter as his form expanded slightly.
Aaron glanced at the strength of King Oren, finding the unique ability of Resonance interesting, his eyes narrowing as he assessed the change, the void seeming to still in anticipation.
