849 I Am The Blazing Fire

Joshua's body crumbled entirely, breaking apart into wafting dust.

Even so, a sharp spiritual radiance held on steadfastly in the mist of Steel Strength, protecting the now-shining Φ formation unyieldingly.

Death was just the beginning.

The destruction of the flesh was merely the start of the fight. So-called death was merely the conversion between form—even if substance crumbled and Order collapsed, they would shift, becoming energy and Chaos. The Initial Flame would thus burn it, allowing all that had perished to return to the world in new forms.

Understanding that and using it as the crux of one's own power, one would become a superior being: indestructible, immortal and eternal. As he turned his last physical form into spiritual form, Joshua applied the spiritual combat he learned from the Great Khan to keep fighting the Chaos any way he could!

Ten seconds.

The Φ formation shone to its utmost.
