Marco stood before the altar, his chest heaving from exhaustion. The Blood Holy Sword rested on crimson velvet, its blade pulsing with hungry anticipation. But before he could reach for it, a familiar presence materialized between him and his goal.

Benjamin, wreathed in blood flames that burned brighter than ever before.

"Congratulations, boy," the Blood Lord said, his spectral form more solid than it had been in the previous chambers. "You've exceeded every expectation. Defeated challenges des

    The divine light cut off abruptly, leaving Benjamin's barely-conscious form suspended in darkness. The void pocket stabilized, the cracks in reality sealing themselves.Benjamin gasped, still alive but shattered. His unified form was cracking like porcelain, the three lords' consciousness barely holding together."Why?" he rasped, his voice breaking. "Why didn't it finish?"Adrian pushed himself to his feet, his expression grim. "Because the Divine Trial never intended to kill you. It was testing your worthiness for godhood. And you failed.""Failed?" Benjamin's voice carried confusion and disbelief. "But I survived!""Survival is not success!" Adrian's voice thundered through the void pocket. "The Divine Trial tests whether you deserve ascension, not whether you can simply endure punishment! You fought with desperation and rage instead of understanding and transcendence! You tried to claw your way to godhood instead of achieving it through merit!"Benjamin's form destabilized further

    The temple's interior crystallized as Benjamin's consciousness fully reasserted dominance over their fusion. The combined entity stood at nearly twenty meters tall now, wreathed in divine light that bent reality itself. The three lords had stopped fighting for control and instead united their power toward a singular goal: ascension to godhood.Adrian materialized before them, his spectral form glowing with the last reserves of his power. "You will not ascend while I still exist!"He launched himself forward, his spectral blade moving with speed born from centuries of combat mastery. The blade struck Benjamin's chest—and bounced off harmlessly."Holy Artifact protection," Benjamin sneered, his voice layered with the Fury and Honor Lords' bloodlust. "Your attacks cannot pierce us."Adrian tried again and again, his blade scraping against armor that wouldn't break, against defenses that seemed absolutely unshakeable. Each strike succeeded only in exhausting him further.From the temple's

    Edwin's spectral form solidified fully, becoming visible for the first time in centuries. But he wasn't alone. Behind him stood Adrian, the Fury Lord's true name, holding his own spectral weapon."The Stele's barrier!" Adrian roared, and his form pulsed with ancient power. "It cannot contain all of us simultaneously! If you three expend energy on the boy, we will break free!"Benjamin hesitated, his assault pausing for just a moment.That moment was all Lily needed."Soul Scream!" she unleashed her most devastating technique.A piercing wail erupted from her body, pure spiritual anguish given voice. It targeted the deepest cores of the three lords' consciousness, exploiting the fragile unity of their forced fusion.The Fury Lord and Honor Lord's control wavered. Their voices separated, speaking in confused discord."What's happening?!""The fusion is failing!""They're attacking our consciousness!"Benjamin tried to reassert control, but the other two lords were resisting, their indiv

    The moment Marco claimed the Blood Holy Sword, the entire temple structure convulsed. Not from the weapon's power, but from something far more sinister.The three massive temple doors at the chamber's far end exploded inward simultaneously. Through them stepped Benjamin, but he was transformed beyond recognition. His spectral form had solidified into something between ghost and god, wreathed in blood flames that reached toward the ceiling.Behind him floated two other figures, equally imposing. The Fury Lord with his burning rage aura. The Honor Lord with her crystalline defensive barrier."What the hell?" Marco raised the Blood Holy Sword defensively."Benjamin," Edwin's voice carried shock and horror. "The three lords have fused. They've broken the soul separation protocols that bound them individually!"Benjamin's laugh was different now. Layered. Multiple voices speaking in horrible harmony."We are no longer separate guardians," the Blood Lord announced, his form pulsing with pow

    Marco rolled aside as another devastating blow cratered the floor. His mind raced, analyzing the situation. Benjamin's power output was absurd, easily comparable to Third Transition despite being a spectral construct. The Heavenly God Descent multiplied everything by three, and Madness doubled his attack power on top of that.But there had to be a weakness. Every skill had limitations."You're using too many skills at once," Marco called out, putting distance between them. "The energy cost must be massive!""Perceptive!" Benjamin's laughter was manic. "But I'm a soul construct! I don't tire like you flesh-and-blood weaklings! I can maintain this state indefinitely!"Marco's eyes narrowed. Benjamin was lying. The slight flicker in his blood flames, the minor inconsistency in his massive form's edges, these were signs of strain."Lily was right about you," Marco said, his voice carrying across the chamber. "You're not a guardian anymore. You're just a bitter ghost clinging to power you

But before he could reach for it, a familiar presence materialized between him and his goal.Benjamin, wreathed in blood flames that burned brighter than ever before."Congratulations, boy," the Blood Lord said, his spectral form more solid than it had been in the previous chambers. "You've exceeded every expectation. Defeated challenges designed for warriors twice your strength. Integrated divine blood that should have killed you. Impressed even the corrupted Golden Guards."Marco's hand tightened on his greatsword. "Then step aside and let me claim what I've earned.""Earned?" Benjamin's laughter was harsh. "You've earned the right to face me. The final guardian. The true test." He gestured, and the Blood Holy Sword flew from the altar into his waiting hand. "This blade has been mine for nine centuries. You think I'll surrender i
