Jason didn't know most beings amongst the masses of the Oceanfolk, but there were some he knew.
Among them were the reptile beings like Murlocs that were known for building huge societies in order to defeat their opponents with numbers instead of individual strength.
However, there were also beasts called Corallemasse that were large beasts, whose appearance was that of big, intertwined corals.
Other than that, there seemed to be some sort of Lizardmen, and even beings that looked similar to the Deepsea scion race he had encountered on Argos.
Despite their similar appearance, they were not the same, and the moment Jason crashed into the ground, right next to one of the Deepsea scion lookalikes, he beheaded it with Byakur, who had manifested in his hand.
A moment later, Jason used his seven-meter-long tail to lash out with it, flinging away several of the Murlocs that were less than one meter tall.
Circulating mana through his body, while exerting the Floating Sky movement technique, Jason's speed increased further as he catapulted himself forward, breaking the ground open.
Slashing, thrusting and piercing Byakur, the death toll kept on increasing with every passing second as he continued to kill several beasts.
At the same time, he was attacked by more than a dozen opponents at once. Yet, instead of evading all of them, Jason trusted the scaled armor and focused more on attacks than adopting a defensive strategy.
As such, he only had to evade the attacks that would certainly hit his vital spots, or those attacks that were issued by beings whose strength exceeded the defensive capabilities provided by Petri through a simple body part manifestation.
Because of that, Jason had to twist his body in uncomfortable angles more than once, but that was fine because everything was under his control.
His Celestia aura was fully unleashed, followed by the Stigma above his right eye that began to glow brightly. Additionally, Jason's mana circulation speed increased tremendously, allowing him to move much faster, while the same applied to his reaction speed.
Through this, evading most powerful attacks was not an issue, while the others were easily defended by him.
Yet, instead of just focussing on defensive tactics, Jason made good use of his tail.
Thus, several attackers fell to the ground or were flung away before they even realised, only to be run over by their own allies.
One of the biggest disadvantages of being in an extremely huge group was the loss of control.
It almost led to a stampede while charging forward as one was forced to run over their brethren, just to not die oneself.
This was extremely frightening, but at the same time helpful for Jason because he could issue simple attacks to kill most opponents rather easily.
There was not a single Murloc at the second threshold of the Prismar stage, and only beings like the Deepse Scia, which was the name Jason gave them nonchalantly based on their appearance that resembled the Deepsea Scion, as well as the Corallemasse, were more dangerous. Some of them were either at the peak of the Prismar stage's second threshold, or they were already gathering mana to construct their dome crystal.
However, Jason didn't think that this was worrisome.
Rather, he was astonished that he had yet to see a single being at the Peak of the Prismar stage, with a completed dome crystal.
He had expected to see at least a few of such existences in the entire mass of beings the Oceanfolk was consistent of, but oddly enough there was not a single one.
'Is that some sort of restriction the Dungeon created?' Jason wondered while slicing apart several Murlocs at once.
They were not really strong, and thus, Jason killed only a few of them, while reluctantly letting a minority through to the village.
He was not able to defeat every single opponent, and focusing on the large mass was more important than the minority of beings that were able to slip past him.
In the end, pursuing them would waste more time, and create even more chaos, which was much worse than fighting from where he was, acting as a major defensive shield for the village.
Because of that, Jason did plan on focusing on everything in front of him, while allowing the beings behind him to advance towards the village, where many surprises were waiting for them.
These surprises were not something they would have to encounter, but that was not something to be bothered about.
Rather, Jason began to smile lightly in face of the horde of opponents that were emerging in front of him.
Knowing that it would be impossible to protect everyone if he were to further restrict himself, there was no way that Jason could continue holding back that much anymore.
With that thought in mind, he simply activated the enhanced version of his sub area's passive mana gathering, once again.
This caused a sudden suctioning force to emerge from within Jason and almost the entire mana in his surrounding was pulled towards him.
Owing to his stigma and the Celestia aura, this force was further enhanced, and the surrounding Maest beast that was also passively absorbing mana owing to their racial characteristics, couldn't help but stare at Jason in fright.
There were only a few beings with a stronger suction force than them, and each of these beings was several times more powerful than them.
Because of that, the Deepsea Scia that was one of such powerful beings, couldn't help but stare at Jason, reluctant to attack or rush past him.
Nevertheless, they felt a force from behind pushing them forward, only to see a black flame sprouting from Jason's body, enveloping his entire being, and Byakur tightly.
Golden eyes pierced through the black flames and it was at this exact moment that most beings realised that something was off.
Yet, instead of being able to do something, they were forced ahead, which gave Jason the opportunity to test out something Solaris had wanted to show him.
As such, his entire being was enveloped by Solaris' flames, which gathered a tremendous amount of mana, draining the entire surrounding of it, only to manifest in the center of Byakur's blade.
This made Jason hold Byakur horizontal in front of his chest with his hand stretched out, one hand holding Byakur's tip while the other held the handle.
Taking a deep breath, Jason knew that something big was about to happen because it had been a long time since he was able to use Solaris properly.
Even though he had been using the origin flame for a very long time as his highest priority owing to its high strength, Jason's current strength exceeded Solaris' capabilities by far.
At least, that was what Jason had assumed.
However, what he didn't know was that Solaris had long since tried and tested different ways in which it could attack its opponents in order to become stronger without necessarily increasing its cultivation.
As such, what Solaris had been trying to achieve was to create something like a martial art technique that allowed it to reach the highest possible lethality with a fairly low amount of strength.
Or in Solaris' case, the most devastating attack with the given amount of firepower!
If they were already able to fuse with each other, the firepower of Solaris' flame would increase drastically, but that was not the case, even if Jason hoped that their time would come soon.
Nevertheless, given the abilities Solaris had, and the fact that it had already created a total of nine prismarine crystals, it was ready to release everything at once.
And this was something Jason supported wholeheartedly because he was also eager to see what his soulbonds could do.
"Release everything Solaris! Use it, the Fire of the Black Dragon!!"
