Over a hundred clusters of ghostly green soul fire hung motionless from the cavern ceiling.
Each gave off the same energy signature. Each echoed with Bone King Ulrich's mocking voice.
"Come on. Pick one."
Sword Master in the Snow's face darkened.
This was no choice at all.
It was a problem with no solution.
Below them, the sea of ghostly green liquid churned ever more violently under Evergreen's Holy Light Formation.
Evergreen swayed on his feet. Golden Divine Blood seeped between the fingers he had pressed against the ground.
He could not hold on much longer.
"What do we do? Dawn, can you use that move again?" Water God asked anxiously.

More importantly, Dawn's body could no longer withstand that level of Divinity output.
Bone King seemed to see their predicament.
Over a hundred voices spoke at once, taunting them like a cat playing with mice.
"What's wrong? Giving up?"
"Then I'll start with the one causing me the most trouble."

He simply stood where he was and closed his eyes.
The Divinity within him—Flash Shadow—began collapsing inward
