His race has changed from a giant of order to a sun giant. His body upgraded from half-divine which demigods possess to half-celestial which only a few possesses. That's why his race changed. He used to be a pretender before. Now he is truly the son of the sun god. They are joined now in more than just divine power. Helios has gained access to his Authority. It is much more powerful than divine power.

Transcendence means breaking your limits. The process is dangerous but it is highly rewarding. You are rewarded with evolution and the power that comes with it when you combine the potential of your soul and your body to break the limit on each of them. Individually, a being can only reach a stat of 1000 at any point without external Influence. It is called the mana limit.

This limit is based on race and some don't have this limit at all. For those with this limit, the potential of their body has been fully exhausted. There's so much that mana can do to strengthen an organism. There comes a point when mana can't strengthen a being any further. That point is the 100% conversion rate of a being.

Stats stop growing even before reaching that point. Some races have a biological limit to a specific Stat. Giants of Order can grow behind the 1,000 mana limit but their speed cannot cross that limit. Realistically, substantial growth stops around a 90% conversion rate. Helios needed divine life energy to experience any amount of growth beyond that point. Becoming a transcendent breaks that limit, allowing a being to reach 10,000 stats.

That's for normal transcendents. Helios is not normal. His soul is far stronger than his body and has been limiting itself because of the body. But the body and the soul are combining now. Ideally, the power of his soul should fall drastically because of his weak body. The power of his soul is sacrificed to break the limit of his body to create an average result.

That means, his soul which is at 1,000,000,000 will fall to 200,004,000 because of the 5,000 of the four aspects of his body. It is a huge drop-off but it is still far beyond what a normal transcendent can have for stats. His body and soul will also be able to return to 1,000,000,000. That is unbelievable for a transcendent. It is far greater than the 10,000 limits of normal transcendents so Helios would have still been a powerhouse of a transcendent.

But that didn't happen. Helios absorbed the power of a Celestial when he was breaking through. That changed everything. The power contained in the Celestial divine energy was absorbed by his body and soul helping him reach his fullest capacity and breaking the limit of both his soul and body. So now, he has reached the limit of the stats that his soul can contain. His stats are comparable to some Sovereigns of law and he even surpasses a lot of them but he isn't as powerful as them.

Currently, he doesn't have a seed of power or any form of amplification from laws. At best he is as strong as a king of law whose stats has reached the limit of 1,000,000 stats. Except he can still grow stronger and acquire more Authority. The divine energy didn't allow him to grow stronger than 1,000,000,000 but it broke the limit of his soul. So his soul and body can grow past what he has achieved.

He is nowhere near being a normal transcendent right now but there's one thing that he shares in common with them. It is conditional immortality. Transcendents have broken more than the limit of stats. They have also broken the limit of Health and Stamina. These constructs cease to exist with any physical weakness.

Transcendents can't be incapacitated by cutting off their heads. They will regrow it quickly and easily as long as there's Origin energy. Their consciousness and the matrix of their existence become one so they can heal from any injury as long as they will it. The only problem they face is that injuries caused by attacks empowered by laws are very difficult to heal.

Laws scramble the matrix of their existence by injecting it with wrong information. Information about their body is overwritten with information about the law of fire. The impurity of the law of fire needs to be purged first before they can heal. That delay can be exploited to cause their death. Their bodies will break apart once enough laws as been injected into their existence.

"Just in time."

He heard the stomping before he saw who it was. The ground began to shake rhythmically as if a giant is walking the earth. Helios suspects that it is truly a giant or in this case, a Colossus. He spread his divine sense that has ballooned from 500 meters to 1 million meters. But the absence of Origin energy in the plane reduced that to 100 thousand meters or 100 kilometers.

His solidified divine sense needs the proper energy in the atmosphere or it can't be stable. The only reason why he can use this much is that he has his own supply of Origin energy from his title as the child of the Virut plane. What he has is enough to confirm that it is really a Colossus making that disturbance.

He can see the unwelcome guest in his mind. His divine sense passed through the impenetrable material of the ant mound. A figure almost 1 kilometer tall is running in the direction of the ant mound. The figure's face is grim with determination. Their eyes are practically glowing with the light of justice and their heart has been made up to deliver it.

This figure is an enforcer of the church of order sent on an important mission from the Celestial Supreme to get to the bottom of the mystery shrouding the ant mound.
