Nylreg was quick to respond, and the haze of dark energy instantly condensed into multiple intertwined sharp threads of shadow that were suddenly pulled into a tight knot. The location of that knot was Jake.
If he didn't move he would be chopped to shreds in an instant, but just before impact a mental wave spread out from his body, followed by a darting Soul Arrow that shot through some invisible point in space. The cohesiveness of these dark energy filaments was broken and the Will of Destruction permeating them was dispelled.
Without that Will, those threads were just a concentrated mass of Fluid, admittedly dangerous, but not enough to threaten someone like Jake. With a sweep of his hand, he slammed down and a blast of heat swept through the fog enveloping him with the full force of a small nuclear bomb.

Edit for non priv readers: Before mad readers slander me again, the 5 chaps were not limited to priv readers as there's a sliding between priv and normal chaps. Except if you just caught up with the novel recently you should have noticed the 5 chaps released last sunday too.
Morever, it's impossible to release chaps for priv readers only except if you add a new priv tier.
I also remind you that the author's note is 8 days old if there's not the mention "Edit for non priv readers".
