Chapter 352 The Power Of {Soul Resonance}!
TRUUUUMMMMM...!
For a moment, I saw how he enveloped the fabric of space itself and then crushed it. The vines themselves were also destroyed, as if they were not even there, and then, he freed himself!
"[Void Step]!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
He started stepping and skipping through space itself, reaching us in an instant. Titan immediately got in front of me, as he unleashed a massive beam of flames from his chest, which shaped itself as a furious dragon face, carefully carved from the wood!
"[Dragon Totem Infernal Breath]!!!"
The Dragon Totem opened its jaws, roaring furiously and unleashing a gigantic Flare Cannon against the Demon King right in front of us!
"ROOOOAARRRR!"
FLUOOOOOOOSSSSHHH!!!
BOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!
The enormous flames impacted the Demon King, stopping him from skipping space in a short-range teleportation type of ability. However, as the Demon King tanked the hit somehow, he began to shapeshift! No longer restricted by the wooden body from before, he quickly took over the body shape of Silver Fang, the Dragon belonging to the Mushroom Hero!
However, this time, it looked way more monstrous, with black scales, red eyes, and enormous black horns atop his head, alongside big and ferocious wings, and claws. His blazing red eyes seemed to enjoy the flames, as his chest absorbed them!
FLUOOSH!
"It can absorb fire?!" Titan was surprised.
"GAHAHAHA! Take it back with you! [Chaos Flare]!!!"
The Demon King utilized Titan\'s flames and fired them right back at us, but now merged with his Miasma, they became flames imbued with the element of chaos!
BOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!
The enormous flame cannon was tanked by Titan alone, as his legs rooted underground and then he generated a gigantic shield made of wood and covered on flames. I helped him by erecting a spiritual barrier as well, all while I imbued my Spiritual Energy and Mana into him.
FLUOOOOOSSSSHHHHHH!!!
The flames were enormously strong. The Demon King continued unleashing them from his chest as he imbued more and more miasma, as if he had an endless amount of it, all summed with spiritual energy, which only made it worse.
"Nnnngggh...! Aaghhh! T-This is strong...!"
Mark struggled to maintain the shield, but I continued giving him all of my strength.
I held his shoulders tightly, as I felt his soul resonating with mine.
FLAAAASH!
It felt as if our souls interconnected with the other. Like red threads wrapping at one another, and tightly making a knot... our power was shared, and we became stronger.
Just... what is this?
Ding!
[You\'ve undergone [Soul Resonance] with your Forest Guardian!]
[50% of each other stats are shared with the other.]
[Total Mana is shared with each other.]
[Skill Power and Effects are enhanced by +50%.]
[Duration: 10 Minutes.]
[Cooldown: 24 Hours.]
Is this because I gave Mark a part of my soul? Maybe our souls resonate because of that? And well... becoming my guardian seems to have given us a stronger connection! Perhaps both.
"T-This amazing power... I feel it, this is your strength, your soul..." Mark said with a voice that was filled with emotions.
"I can feel your soul as well... I feel way stronger. The exhaustion I\'ve been accumulating in my soul is completely gone as well!" I said, feeling refreshed.
"Let\'s do something together then, our minds... even our minds feel connected!" Mark said.
"I get it! Let\'s do what you just thought about it!" I nodded.
Although we couldn\'t reach each other\'s minds or something, it felt like our ideas or inspirations could be somehow conveyed with one another. In that mere second since the Soul Resonance started, we combined our power. Terra\'s Earth Magic with my own Green Magic and Geomancy, alongside Titan\'s Flames, Totems, and Beast Spirits.
FLAAAASH!
Titan\'s body absorbed all of that power, converging together into an enormous lion-like shape, made of wood, and covered by several capes of rocks and lava, alongside flames. His body size growing twice as bigger, as he looked like a majestic lion carved out of blazing wood and molten rock, with a blazing mane of majestic proportions.
And I found myself on top of him!
"But that\'s not enough...!"
I quickly put together my Weapon and the Trident, using Spirit Fusion with hundreds of spirits that surged from our surroundings, and fused them into an enormous blazing hammer! If we want to take down a scaled monster, the best way is by crushing it.
"ROOOOAAR!"
Titan roared with blazing fury, charging across the Chaotic Flare as I swung my hammer, countless amounts of Spiritual Essence flowed out of it, clashing against the Demon King of Miasma and destroying his blazing attack, the shockwave alone throwing him into the ground!
BAAAAAAMMMM!!!
Ding!
[You have directly hurt the Demon King of Miasma\'s Soul!]
[The Demon King of Miasma withers in pain! It has lost 11% of its total HP!]
"UNNGGH...! W-What with this power?! Why are your souls... resonating with each other?!"
The Demon King seemed to recognize our new strength. But we had no time to chit-chat, we didn\'t even need to give each other commands with Mark, he quickly charged towards the Demon King and unleashed a Blazing Body Slam attack, hitting him with his body.
Then he roared, as the flames of his mane shapeshifted into a majestic Snake made of Fire, wrapping around the Demon King\'s body, of course, it was being merged with the Vines of Loki as well, generating an incredible combination.
[Soul Resonance], according to what the Great Spirit explained to me, was a powerful Ability that those with amazingly strong or talented souls could do in the past. They were able to temporarily "combine" their souls together, sharing their stats and magic powers for a few minutes... but after that, they often collapsed out of exhaustion.
We need to finish off the Demon King right now before that happens, we have to go all out, absolutely all out without stopping!
"RAAAAAAH!"
"ROOOOAAARRR!"
We roared together, as I swung my blazing hammer tens of times, while Titan unleashed a barrage of devastating slashing attacks using his blazing lion claws, all while firing countless gargantuan-sized fireballs!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"GRUUUUAAAAGGGGH...!"
Ding!
[You have directly hurt the Demon King of Miasma\'s Soul!]
