The young man, the seal loosening
Above the rubble of the collapsed buildings, a purple-haired girl surrounded by golden light watched her long hair dance in the wind, feeling the immense power within her that had increased a thousandfold.
"This is my valkyrie armament power," she murmured softly.
As Emitia looked around, her gaze revealed a faint authority that made her appear several years older.
In Emitia’s eyes, the phantom beasts that had once exerted intense pressure behind the senior sisters now felt weak, as if she could easily kill them with a single shot.
This was not an illusion; she truly was that powerful at this moment.
While Emitia was lost in the daze of her soaring power, Chen Chu also slightly raised his head, admiring his 'masterpiece.'
The purple-haired girl in her valkyrie form appeared more mature, glamorous, and sexy; her beauty rivaled Lin Xue's, and her figure, with its western traits, was more voluptuous, curvy and pronounced.
However, this was merely a change in appearance. Chen Chu's main focus was on the valkyrie armament she possessed.
In Chen Chu's eyes, that sexy and glamorous armament was not just clothing but a complex energy matrix, akin to an external exoskeleton 'armor.'
This was also the reason behind Emitia’s significant enhancement in her valkyrie form.
Since the source of her power came from the valkyrie armament, she was merely a vessel.
After all, even Chen Chu back then, at the fifth level of heaven, could barely match the seventh level when fully exerting himself, but Emitia, having awakened and broken through to the five-star level, had her power surge to the ninth level of heaven.
However, this valkyrie system, though seemingly powerful, had a very low limit.
As all the power came from the valkyrie armament, these valkyrie warriors had their bodies, will, and souls unrefined.
Let alone that with each breakthrough in realm, their life level would undergo transformation and evolution.
This was also the reason why in this world, the lifespans of valkyries weren't much longer than those of ordinary people; essentially, they remained just regular extraordinary beings.
At that moment, the dean of the Phantom God Academy, Fiorina, smiled: "Emitia, congratulations on awakening your armament and becoming a true valkyrie warrior."
"However, the surge in power often comes with loss of control. Next, I will give you a practical lesson to help you familiarize yourself with your power."
As she spoke, Fiorina looked at Isabel and the other students: "You all should follow to the training ground to see the differences between the valkyrie armament integrated with divine power and your own armaments."
Fiorina attributed Emitia’s strength to Chen Chu, believing that his power had influenced the valkyrie armament.
However, her guess this time was quite accurate.
Emitia, significantly empowered, naturally would not refuse this proposal, but just then, Chen Chu suddenly spoke: "Emitia, I have something I need to verify, so I won’t be watching."
Chen Chu had no interest in these 'childish games' of competition; he had more important things to do.
"… Chu, where are you going?" the purple-haired girl blinked in surprise.
"To the underground labyrinth," Chen Chu said, as the power beneath his feet erupted.
Boom!
The ground trembled within a radius of dozens of kilometers, and the ground around Chen Chu instantly collapsed, sending countless fragments of stone and dirt soaring into the sky, whipping up a storm of qi waves sweeping through the air.
The sudden change caused the students to exclaim in alarm.
"Be careful."
Roar! The phantom beasts behind those girls roared, their colorful powers erupting to block the overwhelming fragments raining down like cannonballs.
Once the dust settled, everyone opened their eyes to look into the distance.
There, beneath Emitia’s feet, the rubble had vanished, replaced by a pitch-black void with a diameter of a hundred meters and a depth that could not be fathomed, surrounded by web-like cracks.
