Chapter 13 - chapter 13

Bhoumik sat cross-legged on the frozen ground, closing his eyes. He took a deep breath, focusing inward, pushing away the distractions of the world around him. Slowly, he began to sense the energy in the air, the spiritual essence that lingered in the atmosphere. It felt like a soft breeze at first, barely noticeable, but as he reached out with his consciousness, it became more tangible, like a current of water flowing around him.

He could feel it—the spiritual energy entering his body, coursing through his veins like a flowing river. The sensation was surreal, as though the very essence of the world was merging with his being. And within that energy, there was a distinct coldness. The ice element.

It was more potent than he had expected. As the ice energy flowed into him, it brought with it a sharp clarity, a biting chill that invigorated his mind and body. The cold didn't bother him—it empowered him.

Indrali watched from a distance, her keen eyes observing every detail. She could sense Bhoumik's growing focus, the way his body was naturally adapting to the flow of spiritual energy. His concentration was far beyond what she had anticipated for someone just starting out. The way he absorbed the ice element was remarkable, as though it was a part of him.

Hours passed. Bhoumik remained deep in meditation, the spiritual energy around him swirling like a gentle storm. His cultivation was progressing rapidly, and Indrali could feel it. But there was something else—something unusual. Beneath the surface of Bhoumik's cultivation, another energy stirred. It was darker, more ominous. A force that had been sealed within him for who knows how long.

Inside Bhoumik's body, a crack appeared in the seal of this mysterious energy. It wasn't the dark element. It was something far more dangerous. As the crack widened, the energy began to seep out, slowly but surely. It twisted and coiled within him, spreading through his veins like a shadow.

Indrali's expression darkened as she sensed the shift in the atmosphere. The sky above them, which had been clear moments ago, suddenly grew overcast. Dark clouds gathered overhead, swirling ominously as the wind picked up.

And then it happened.

Bhoumik's body convulsed, his eyes snapping open, glowing with an eerie dark light. His body began to float off the ground, lifted by an unseen force. The energy inside him surged, breaking free from its confines. The air around him crackled with power as a pillar of dark light shot up from his body, piercing the sky.

"What is happening?!" Indrali shouted, her voice filled with panic. She had never seen or heard of anything like this before. The spiritual energy around Bhoumik twisted and warped, forming a dark lotus with crimson veins around him. The lotus pulsed with malevolent energy, enveloping Bhoumik's body as if protecting him—or perhaps consuming him.

Maya, who had been resting nearby, hissed in alarm. "This... this can't be..."

Indrali turned to the serpent, her face pale. "What do you mean? What's happening to him? Do you know anything about this?!"

Maya's eyes glowed with a strange intensity as she answered. "In the memories of my ancestors, they witnessed this phenomenon once before, millions of years ago. This... is the awakening of the most formidable and feared constitution—'The Cursed Body of Lotus Devouring Infernal Void.'"

Indrali's heart skipped a beat. She staggered back, her breath catching in her throat. The very mention of that name sent a chill down her spine. "The Cursed Body of Lotus Devouring Infernal Void... That constitution is..."

Maya nodded, her voice low and filled with dread. "It's a body that brings devastation wherever it goes. A taboo constitution ranked zero in the ancient body constitution records. It's said to be capable of devouring everything in its path... including worlds."

Indrali was stunned, her mind racing. "No... this can't be... If that's true, then he's—he's a danger to everything!"

The dark light around Bhoumik intensified, and from the clouds above, a bolt of black lightning struck the ground, resonating with the energy around him. The spiritual dark lotus pulsed one last time before Bhoumik's body slowly descended to the ground. The storm clouds dissipated, leaving a quiet stillness in the air.

Bhoumik lay unconscious on the cold ground, his body now calm. But inside his consciousness, something had changed. The dark lotus with crimson veins was now fully formed, and Bhoumik found himself sitting in its center. It wasn't just a symbol—it was a force of nature, something that had become part of him, protecting his soul and body.

Outside Indrali approached the bhoumik with different expression.

But deep in the snow mountain a man with white silver robe with long black hair was cultivating but he open it eyes as he sence the power of cruse body Lotus devouring of infernal void constitution "someone has awakened this their is no right to live this person" he then disappeared from their.

In the frozen heart of the Endless Snow Peaks, the world was locked in eternal winter. The mountains stood tall, jagged against the white sky, their snowy crowns undisturbed for eons. But now, these peaceful slopes would bear witness to a battle of unimaginable fury. A dark shadow loomed over this pristine landscape-a battle that would stain the snow red with blood.

The air crackled with tension.. Standing atop a ridge of ice, cloaked in a snow-white robe, was Ren Zhaoyang, a name spoken in hushed whispers across the cultivation world. A rare figure at the Manifestation 8 realm, his long black hair whipped violently in the storm, framing eyes that shimmered with cold malice. The Lotus Devouring of Infernal Void constitution had awakened nearby, and he was here to end it before it consumed the world.

Facing him was Indrali, fierce and resolute. Her black hair stood stark against the pale snow, and her ice-blue eyes burned with determination. She stood in defense of the unconscious boy, Bhoumik Pal, his cursed constitution threatening to become a force of destruction. Coiled protectively around the boy was Maya, a rank-5 dark-scaled serpent, hissing ominously.

The mountains trembled, as though the earth itself was afraid of what was to come.

Then indrali see this person " who are you ?" She said , the ren was standing in air his eyes on unconscious bhoumik say " this lady you step aside this man is awakened the lotus devouring of infernal void constitution he threat so i should killed him before he grow up".

Hearing this indrali " what if i say no " her voice was in very cold and ice tone ren " lady you i am sincerely asking you to leave this boy, if not then i have to attack to you also".

"Then... i am sorry !" indrali in very cold and anger tone.

"You will not leave here alive, Ren Zhaoyang's voice echoed in the freezing wind. "I will rid the world of this cursed constitution, even if I must slaughter you and that snake to do it."

Indrali's breath fogged in the air. "You'll have to go through me first. I won't let you harm him."

Ren's expression remained impassive as he raised his hand. Without hesitation, he unleashed Moon Blade, a shimmering crescent of silver light that seemed to rend the very air as it surged toward her. The sheer speed and power of the technique cut through the snow like butter, the ground splitting open as the blade advanced.

Indrali barely had time to react. She stomped her foot, summoning her Ice Domain. The ground around her froze instantly, ice rising in jagged spires to shield her from the oncoming attack. The Moon Blade smashed into her defense, and the impact was deafening. Ice shattered like glass, sending shards flying through the air. One particularly large piece slashed across Indrali's cheek, leaving a deep, bloody gash.

But the blade didn't stop-it broke through her defenses and clipped her arm. Blood sprayed onto the snow, the bright red contrasting starkly with the white landscape.

Indrali gritted her teeth against the pain. "You'll have to do better than that, Ren."
