Not only was the power of the lotus crushing me, but even breathing felt impossible under its immense weight.
It was a power unlike anything I had ever witnessed before.
The massive Golden Lotus of pure energy loomed closer with each passing moment, its brilliance blinding and suffocating. The sheer force it radiated threatened to obliterate everything in its path.
If it hit me, I would most likely suffer devastating injuries.
But that didn't mean I was weaker than him. My attacks could rival his lotus—easily.
The problem was the cost. To counter this, I'd have to expend an enormous amount of soul power, leaving myself vulnerable and too weak to continue fighting.
What do I do...
Time was ticking, the lotus descending rapidly, and my mind raced at unimaginable speed. I had to find a solution—something, anything—that would allow me to escape this overwhelming situation unscathed.
Think, Gaon. Think.
