Galen flashed across the crystal plaza, passing over the scattered skeletons and heading straight for the crystal skeleton left behind by his previous life. With Magic Power, he traced a hexagram-shaped formation in the air.
"Fuse!"
Galen slammed his right hand hard against his chest, forcing out a mouthful of Essence Blood and spitting it onto the crystal skeleton.
"Rumble!"
In an instant, the crystal skeleton radiated boundless, brilliant holy light. A terrifying aura rose from it, and countless holy infants appeared all around, singing the Holy Hymn and displaying boundless holiness and majesty.
The crystal skeleton slowly floated into the air, its body forming a cross. Galen spread his arms, matching its pose. In the blink of an eye, the crystal skeleton forced its way into Galen's body.
"Ah!!!"
Galen threw back his head and let out a long howl. His aura surged higher and higher, while a shrieking tornado formed around him. He became a gigantic ball of light, and boundless holy light began gathering behind him, forming a heavenly paradise!
"Mid-stage Primordial Unity, late-stage Primordial Unity, peak Primordial Unity..."

"Whew!" Li Yi let out a quiet breath of relief. No matter how powerful the skeleton Galen had fused with was, as long as he hadn't taken that final step, he was no match for Main Body.
"To think I only reached peak Primordial Unity!"
Galen furrowed his brows slightly, but soon accepted it. He was only a reincarnation, and his soul had suffered serious damage. Naturally, he could not meld with his former body
