Boom!

The force of the twin lightning dragon immediately shattered the ground upon impact. Aria's body disappeared in the bright flash of light, and powerful pressure blew away all the surrounding palace guard!

”Aria!” Elizabeth immediately cried out.

”Don't go!” Heinrich held his wife back and warned, ”It's too dangerous!”

Elizabeth dropped to her knees and stared at the scene before her in disbelief. It was the first time she witnessed a Transcendent Phenomenon that could potentially kill the person achieving Transcendence.

”How can the baptism from a Transcendent Phenomenon be so powerful?” She muttered.

Other Transcendents would get a baptism in a steady stream of light, but Aria was struck by everything in a single shot instantaneously.

After the twin lightning dragon clashed into Aria's body, they did not get discharged and disperse into the air. Instead, they weaved and coiled around Aria's body like it was trying to strain her while her body hovered in midair.

However, if one looks carefully, the twin lightning dragon did not actually touch Aria's body. There was a tiny gap between them like some invisible spatial force was preventing the two from contacting.

Aria's eyes snapped open with two streaks of tears running down her cheeks, but her expression was determined.

The twin lightning dragons of blue and purple immediately roared as they began to deform and sucked into Aria's glabella like a powerful vacuum.

Once the entirety of the two lightning dragons was devoured into Aria's Ice-Lightning Seed, traces of remnant lightning flickered across her eyes.

Bzzt!

Aria's body slowly descended, and her feet landed on solid ground. A few strips of electricity immediately escaped and ran across the shattered ground like snakes before dispersing into nothing.

Shortly after, Heinrich let go of his wife after determining the situation was safe. Elizabeth shot to her feet and made her way over.

”How are you feeling, Aria? Are you alright? Does it hurt anywhere?” Elizabeth asked with concern.

Aria was confused by Elizabeth's overly concerned and began waving her hands and feet, studying her body's condition.

After determining her body was in perfect condition, she wiped her tears and temporarily pushed her sorrow aside before shaking her head.

”I'm fine, Mother. It does not hurt anywhere.”

”Does that mean you're a Transcendent now?” Elizabeth asked with a bit of doubt.

Heinrich also glanced at Aria with suspicion and commented, ”Aria's Transcendent Phenomenon was unprecedented. Not only was it big, but the process was also long, and the baptism was instantaneous. However, the power coursing through her body is real. There's no doubt in my mind that Aria has achieved Transcendence successfully.”

After Elizabeth sensed the power in Aria's body, she agreed with a nod.

”Try testing your strength, Aria,” Elizabeth suggested.

Aria nodded.

She distanced herself from Leon's parents with a few steps and closed her eyes, feeling the power in her body. At this moment, she felt like she was filled with energy and wisdom.

The Ice-Lightning Seed had changed into crystallized form after absorbing all the ice-lightning power from the twin lightning dragons.

However, that was not the only Transcendent Crystal existing within Aria's sea of consciousness. There were vague forms of two other Transcendent Crystals that revolved around the Ice-Lightning Transcendent Crystal.

They were like transparent glasses, an empty shell.

Despite that being the case, they were gradually growing more distinct at a slow but steady rate. The soul core emitted soft particles of light that fluttered over to the two hollow Transcendent Crystals like glitter.

In the sky, the dark clouds were still present.

However, they slowly dissipated after exhausting their power of lightning. Despite that, Aria raised her hand to the sky, and the dispersing dark clouds began to gather once more.

In a short moment, the rumbling thunder was heard, and the flashes of lightning were seen brightening the dark sky.

Bzzt!

A strip of lightning descended and danced around Aria's fingertips harmlessly before zapping around her body playfully like a tamed pet.

The lightning was entirely under her control, and the scene appeared especially beautiful, like Aria was some goddess of lightning.

”Truly extraordinary!”

A distant exclamation was heard.

Judas' eyes lit up when his gaze landed on Aria's fairy-like figure and became enraptured, compelling him to descend from the sky and greet her.

”Young Master Judas!” Elder Gustavo growled in warning, but it was too late.

They had already exposed themselves.
