Protagonist:

Lena
Just as the residual ripples from Lin En's use of the Dominion Grasp had yet to fully dissipate.
The Incarnation of Yi Su, who had maintained a semi-observer stance, quietly presiding over the ritual, finally ceased its act.
It no longer hovered in the distant Void, quietly watching; those massive wings covered in countless bizarre pupils fiercely unfurled completely.
Amidst the intertwined, stacked tentacles, innumerable eyes of varying sizes snapped open, each pupil swirling with the unique, dim blue spiritual radiance of the myriad-changing Chaos.
In the next instant, dense waves of blue light poured forth from the countless pupils, like a star-rain scattering across the sky.
Like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, they crashed down upon Lin En, covering heaven and earth.
The light waves tore through the Void; where they passed, the surface of space rippled with fine undulations, and even the surrounding floating soul fragments melted and dissolved upon contact with the light waves.
Having just barely broken free from the full-body limpness brought by the Dominion Grasp, the weakness of his soul being repeatedly torn.
Lin En's limbs and muscles still retained bursts of tearing soreness.
He gritted his teeth, suppressing a muffled groan in his throat, driving his body to roll fiercely to the side.
The power system of the Power Armor on him had long since been damaged; the metal joints emitted an urgent, piercing "creak" of friction.
Yet he still exerted every ounce of effort to evade the blue light waves rushing at his face.
But in that brief moment of rolling and dodging, Lin En clearly perceived that some inconceivable change had already occurred within his body.
The heart-rending agony and exhaustion-induced weakness from activating the Dominion Grasp moments ago seemed not merely a price, but rather a cruel physical reconstruction.
Stream after stream of scalding, searing power ceaselessly emerged from the depths of his bone marrow, flowing through every inch of muscle fiber.
His entire body's strength, dexterity, and reaction speed climbed steadily higher.
The inner lining of the Power Armor on him continuously squeezed his shoulders and chest; the hard alloy inner walls transmitted a distinct sense of constraint.
As if this suit of Combat Armor, which had fit well enough before, had now become somewhat tight, almost unable to contain this metamorphosing fleshly body.
Those light waves, which in outsiders' eyes were so fast only a blue residual image could be seen, were slowing down bit by bit within Lin En's rapidly changing perception.
The flight trajectories of the light waves, the meridians of psychic energy flow, became clearly discernible in his field of vision, bit by bit.
Even a strange impulse faintly surfaced in his heart.
As if... he needed only a thought, and he could reach out to finely adjust the flight trajectories of those blue light waves, twisting the direction of their bombardment.
Lin En fiercely suppressed this mad thought.
This was a psychic attack personally unleashed by the Warp Evil God Yi Su; casually touching and altering it, who knows what dire consequences it would invite.
Moreover, that feeling of wanting to dominate everything was no good thing.
So he merely relied on his skyrocketing agility, dodging left and right, consecutively evading several rounds of the all-covering light wave baptism.
But he soon sensed something was wrong.
As his control over this newborn body grew increasingly proficient, his own speed and explosive power rose higher and higher.
The attack intensity unleashed by the Yi Su Incarnation also rose synchronously, climbing with the tide.
The density of the blue light waves became even more terrifying; the psychic destructive power contained in a single light wave multiplied explosively.
Worse still, that Warp Incarnation would occasionally reach out and grasp at empty air.
A sharp light blade condensed entirely from pure, dim blue psychic energy would take shape in the Void.
Bearing the might of cleaving heaven and earth, it slashed down fiercely upon Lin En from above.
Each time a light blade fell, Lin En could only exert his utmost limit to barely shift sideways and dodge.
The light blade grazed past his side; the slash landed on the Void barrier behind him, exploding with a boom, blasting a dense, spider-web-like network of fine cracks across a large expanse of space.
Yet Lin En could also keenly feel that the Yi Su Incarnation's improvement had an invisible ceiling.
It did not directly release destructive power capable of utterly annihilating him in a single instant.
It was more like it was constantly probing, bit by bit measuring where the limits of Lin En's brand-new body lay.
A strand of icy, bone-piercing unease rushed up Lin En's spine straight to the crown of his head.
The opponent wasn't unable to kill him; what was Its true purpose?
Just as this thought had just flashed through his mind, that massive Yi Su Incarnation in the Void suddenly completely dissipated.
As if melting into the surrounding surging Warp mist, disappearing without a trace.
Lin En's pupils fiercely contracted, every muscle in his body instantly tensing to the extreme, his gaze frantically whipping around searching for the enemy's tracks.
The next second, the entire expanse of space above his head suddenly distorted.
An incomparably massive shadow enveloped down; a vast, boundless giant palm, covered in distorted runes, slowly pressed down from the Upper Level Void.
The outline of that palm obscured the vast majority of the scenery in his field of vision, as if the entire Sky had been completely covered by this giant hand.
Space in all eight directions was completely sealed; beneath Lin En's feet, on both left and right Sides, all were sealed dead by solidified air pressure, no way to retreat, no way to dodge.
The shadow of death had already firmly enveloped his head.
But a strand of strange dissonance arose in Lin En's heart.
This giant hand, sufficient to easily crush him, its descending speed did not possess that kind of thunderous, extreme speed one would imagine; rather, it appeared somewhat sluggish.
What was dragging down Its movements?
The answer was revealed almost in a single instant.
From the depths of a distant spatial rift, a heart-rending, terrifying psychic shriek that resounded through the entire Warp Layer erupted with a boom!
It was Lena!
Seeing Lin En about to be slapped to death by the giant hand of Yi Su's incarnation, intense Despair and Fear directly shattered all of Lena's reason.
She could no longer care about any schemes, Misgivings, or forbearance.
Maintaining the Frost Dragon's towering massive body, the surface of its blue scales suddenly surged with raging burning Pale Purple psionic flames.
The entire dragon body was completely wrapped by this surging psionic fire.
In an instant, Lena burst forth with a Terrifyingly shocking Spirit Energy Level.
The surging Warp Energy Flood rushed outward in a Green Skin Virus Rampage, actually forcibly breaking through that layer of spatial shackles that had originally been imprisoning her!
The surrounding spatial barriers shattered and collapsed inch by inch like thin ice under the Psionic Shock.
Lin En could Notice.
Even Yi Su's incarnation, upon seeing this scene, revealed a Trace of genuine surprise on that face composed of vortices.
But this surprise was Instant, replaced by a touch of smugness mixed with calculation and success.
