1104 Lumyst Breath

Like many top Players, Jake had learned to protect his spirit as he just did by discarding his doomed body at the last moment, just as he had learned to infuse Spirit or Elemental energy like lightning or fire into his attacks to ensure his enemies wouldn't resurrect to stab him in the back.

Jake waited patiently for the upper half of his body to regenerate, his expression growing increasingly grim, until it fell into utter despondency as he realized his cells were desperately struggling to divide. Normally, they would have possessed enough energy accumulated in their Aether Code to support over 16 instant regenerations without deleterious side effects.

Finally grasping the full extent of his dire predicament, Jake, in his Spirit Body state, meticulously scanned what remained of his pelvis and legs for the cause. A searing pain jolted him out of his body instantly, an invasive energy 'drowning' and 'diluting' his mental sense like a flood or tsunami.
