Meanwhile, Damon finally reached the sixth break point and felt like he was on the verge of collapse. His entire body ached, his head was spinning, and his health was dropping like a stone. Each breath in that freezing water was killing him by almost half. Even with all his blood reserves and regeneration, he couldn't go any further.
If he tried to push just a little more, he'd die instantly. He knew it.
Frustration and exhaustion hit him all at once. He prided himself on being strong, on always pushing the limits, but this place was on a whole different level. It was like the abyss itself was trying to crush his very soul.
He knew he might be able to push a bit more if he risked everything, but that would be suicide. He needed to be smarter than that. If he wanted to reach the bottom, he'd need a better plan.
His ice affinity had already reached Rank B, and it was not going to be easy to increase it further. He needed to step outside of this cold to come up with a plan.
