Hajin stored the Legendary Chain before retrieving Breaker’s Lever into his right hand beneath the descending mountain shell.
Collector’s Grasp covered his bare left palm while five Rings rotated around the same damaged forearm.
Both Growth blades remained stored as singular items while Phase Lock held the avatar’s true incarnation frequency.
Vella pressed the shoulder through their Spirit bond before warning, "One Lever turn remains approved, then that pathway fails under another load."
Dominion raised both valley walls toward Hajin, forcing his body under the complete incarnation instead of leaving a safer angle.
Rumi moved Ferra plus injured Loccy through routes she touched before the converging stone closed their positions.
Aegis received the first impact while Collector’s dark-gold lines touched a bare section of the avatar’s core.
The artifact exposed one true seam beneath three regenerating shells, finding no mortal residue within the hostless structure.
Collector separated each false layer by the pressure it returned through Hajin’s palm, letting Aria discard reflections before the Lever moved.
The first shell copied royal rank while the second copied foundation weight, plus the third hid regeneration behind demonic extraction current.
None carried breath, memory, or a living refusal response when Vella checked the exposed route through their Spirit bond.
Aria marked that result before saying, "One valid avatar core remains, with no second hostage or independent mortal reward inside it."
Hajin fixed Breaker’s Lever against the measured boundary while five Rings supplied force through his approved shoulder range.
The ordinary movement brace Ferra made in Chapter 429 guided his arm without absorbing any divine backlash.
Its leather tore at the marked endpoint while the rigid splints kept broken edges away from his skin.
Collector held the exposed frequency as the Lever forced Incarnation Wedge into the real seam.
Ferra reached the valley edge before shouting, "The Wedge is open, but my repaired pin is moving under the core pressure."
She entered through Rumi’s touched approach with the incarnation pin held inside insulated tongs.
Masterwork Network stayed local, since zero remote fixtures remained after their destruction during the palace release.
Ferra drove the repaired collar through the exposed core, then struck once until its maker mark caught physical pressure.
The bent pin held the seam while Hajin released Collector’s Grasp from his left hand.
He released Breaker’s Lever from his right hand next, allowing the intact artifact to return to inventory with its partial seal.
[Breaker’s Lever: Stored]
[Condition: Intact]
[Incarnation Wedge Seal: Partially Open]
Both hands were empty before the divine Growth blade entered his right hand, followed by the demonic mate in his left.
Ferra retreated from the cutting line while the pin cracked from its point toward the maker mark.
The finite pin shattered around the exposed seam, leaving its fragments outside Hajin’s crossed weapon path.
[Incarnation Pin: Destroyed]
[Recoverable Material: Fragments Only]
No part of Breaker’s Lever broke during that placement, since the artifact had already returned intact to inventory.
Dominion poured regeneration into the exposed core while white-gold rank tried closing the opening around Hajin’s blades.
The demonic extraction current rebuilt the shell from below as five Rings drove both weapon edges forward.
Hajin crossed the divine sword through the Phase-Locked seam, then matched its cut with the demonic edge.
[Crossed Resonance]
[Resonance Wound Established]
The right blade severed Dominion authority while the left consumed each regeneration pulse entering the identical wound.
Ferra watched the destroyed pin fragments stay outside both edges, preventing loose incarnation metal from altering their matched registration.
Rumi held a touched path behind Hajin without opening it until the completed cut removed pressure from his retreat direction.
Loccy kept four Wings beneath the valley floor, receiving only declared foundation weight while the severed authority escaped elsewhere.
Gold-black force passed through the incarnation core, then traveled along its authority link toward the distant true body.
Hajin felt the God fail to close that scar beyond Ouro, but no independent divine viewpoint entered his mind.
The wound carried one matched cut through an existing link without pulling him across worlds or revealing a complete remote body.
White-gold armor broke across the empty valley while dead shell fragments fell away from the severed incarnation center.
Rumi moved falling pieces from Loccy through touched routes as Vella checked each fragment for continuing regeneration.
Eirwen’s riders remained outside the passes until every piece lost its white-gold heat within the exclusion zone.
The kill receipt appeared only after the last regeneration current stopped inside the destroyed shell.
[Crowned Avatar Destroyed]
[Experience Gained: 150,000,000]
[Hajin Current Experience: 250,000,000 / 250,000,000]
A sixth halo opened around Hajin’s right forearm after the avatar’s confirmed death.
The new rotation began beside the first five instead of replacing them, making six distinct circles visible around one damaged limb.
Aria measured each halo before the multiplier registered, confirming that the progression event followed the reconciled kill receipt.
Vella felt the added force enter the shoulder pathway, then ordered every Ring closed before the tissue lost another branch.
Its rotation widened the established circuit into a twelvefold multiplier while five new stat points remained unassigned.
All six Rings occupied the same forearm geometry, with no halo appearing around his neck, fingers, or either weapon.
[Ring 6 Unlocked]
[Multiplier: 12x Base Stats]
[Stat Points Gained: 5 - Unassigned]
[Mana Restoration: None]
[Healing: None]
The breakthrough restored no spent mana, while his Decree Wound stayed open beneath Vella’s direct suppression.
His right shoulder failed after the final Lever use, making the new multiplier dangerous across already torn pathways.
Hajin closed every halo before their force widened that damage, leaving Ring Six unavailable as retroactive help for the victory.
Stolen Moment retained its existing cooldown, plus no new manifestation window appeared through the progression event.
The reclaimed divine authority entered the Goddess Fragment only after every Ring had closed around his injured arm.
[Goddess Soul Fragment Recovery: 30.00% -> 40.00%]
Pressure gathered behind Hajin’s sternum while the Resonance Wound stayed visible along its distant authority link.
One old meeting chamber flashed at the edge of his perception, carried as sensory backwash instead of a separate viewpoint.
Jion turned beside eleven obscured presences, but no name, dialogue, or travel route reached Hajin through that brief image.
The vision collapsed inward before he identified the Dominion God’s true name or location beyond Ouro.
Vella caught Hajin as his knees failed, holding the decree wound through direct Spirit contact without healing its attached command.
Ferra reached the dead core after Rumi marked a stable route across the broken valley floor.
She photographed the pin fragments in place before touching them, preserving proof that the broken material came from one finite tool.
An Eirwen rider signed the image record from beyond the cooling debris, while Aria attached the placement time to the kill ledger.
Ferra used ordinary tongs for recovery, keeping her local network closed until no hostile frequency remained within the fragments.
She gathered every incarnation pin fragment, placing the ruined pieces inside a pouch labeled with their final use.
Breaker’s Lever required no fragment collection, since it remained intact within inventory after returning from Hajin’s right hand.
Aria displayed the distinction while Ferra signed both artifact states beneath the battlefield ledger.
[Breaker’s Lever: Intact in Inventory]
[Incarnation Pin: Destroyed, Fragments Recovered]
Both Growth blades stayed singular, unnamed, plus registered as one matched Mythic set after the completed strike.
Ferra stored the divine blade from Hajin’s right hand before storing its demonic mate from his left.
Their Resonance Wound remained connected to the defeated avatar’s distant authority link, not to either weapon’s identity.
Loccy remained alive beneath splints while Rumi held three touched routes around the unstable slopes.
Nari answered from the capital through their linked contract, confirming the palace endpoint remained sealed behind the team.
Juna kept the sky road closed as Eirwen’s riders entered only after white-gold debris stopped moving.
Their survey found no settlement, traveler, active mine, protected ruin, plus occupied headwater inside the impact boundary.
Aria closed Hajin’s progression ledger at exactly 250,000,000 before opening the new threshold toward one billion.
No carried excess appeared beyond that total, since the avatar reward ended exactly on the sixth Ring requirement.
[Hajin Current Experience: 250,000,000 / 1,000,000,000]
[Unassigned Stat Points: 5]
[Fragment Recovery: 40.00%]
Vella separated the shoulder failure from the decree injury, preserving two distinct treatment problems for their recovery sequence.
Ordinary healing could begin after Phase Lock plus the attached command were rejected without feeding royal authority.
Ferra marked her shattered pin as a finite cost rather than an upgrade waiting to return inside Masterwork Network.
She also inspected the intact Lever through Aria’s inventory record, finding its partially opened seal unchanged after the kill.
Hajin’s awareness faded under Fragment pressure while six Rings remained closed around his injured forearm.
Rumi guided the treatment group through touched paths as Ferra carried only pin fragments inside her marked pouch.
The Crowned Avatar had died through a five-Ring team sequence, leaving the sixth Ring as its aftermath rather than its cause.
Behind them, Breaker’s Lever remained whole in inventory while the destroyed incarnation pin stayed broken in Ferra’s hands.
