Rumble.

It was like thunder crashing down.

The air twisted, and an unknown force surged through the space.

Thump!

My heart pounded wildly, and energy erupted uncontrollably within me.

A defensive instinct.

My body reacted on its own, and my energy surged through my meridians, spreading across my entire body.

Whirrrrrr—!!!

Nine Flames Firewheel’s rings expanded and spun rapidly.@@novelbin@@

Heat rose sharply, and my crown burned hot.

'…What is this…?'

This sensation—

It was too alien to be simply defined as hostility or killing intent.

And yet, it wasn’t entirely unfamiliar either.

'A spell?'

I decided to classify this sensation as a type of spell.

If that was the case, should I consider it an intent manifested through sorcery?

Intent, when manifested, was shaped by one’s emotions and cultivation level.

And if a spell was being used to manifest an aura—

'Is this the result of that?'

An aura formed through sorcery.

And a phenomenon shaped by the turtle’s level of mastery.

If that explained the current situation—

'Interesting.'

Beyond why the turtle was reacting this way, the situation itself intrigued me.

Sorcery was a complex force, one I had yet to fully understand.

'So it can be used like this too.'

Learning that it could be applied in this manner gave me a new perspective.

'What exactly is the difference?'

The pressure intensified, gradually affecting me as well.

I focused entirely on analyzing the way it was being manifested.

'It’s fundamentally different from internal energy manifestation.'

Then the method of manifestation must also be different.
