Monster Integration - Chapter 3938: High Earth-Sovereign
The core stopped, and with it stopped the absorption of the energy.
The essences and the energies had been absorbed.
Now, the most dangerous and painful part. The one, I had been dreading, seeing the changes it had brought to my body and soul.
‘It will not affect my breakthrough, right?’ I asked the question for an umptieth time.
Like always, there was no answer, which I took as affirmation. I mean, what other choice do I have, but not to take it as such?
I took a deep breath and waited.
I didn’t have to wait for long as I felt the change in my body and soul.
The merging began and I braced myself for the soul-crushing pain, I felt every breakthrough.
Hun!
The pain came, but also a surprise, which deepened as the seconds passed.
I had expected pain, and the pain did come, but not the soul-crushing one. It is not even a tenth of the pain, I had felt in my last breakthrough.
I did not like it; I could see what was happening.
The changes brought by the mist are suppressing that pain. It is still there, but I am not feeling it.
It is not the only thing those changes are doing.
They are also making the merge smooth. The same element in them is acting like glue.
If there was not a forbidden power in there, then forgot pain, I would have felt the pleasure, that would have made me moan.
I am not exaggerating; I have seen people moaning during their breakthroughs.
Three of them.
Now, with this breakthrough, they will become an unalienable part of me. It would become tens of times harder to get rid of them than before.
I would have preferred pain rather than this.
It wouldn’t have left some unexplainable ticking time bomb in me.
Seconds passed, and the process went further and further. I watched it carefully.
The breakthrough formation is not only helping me with the breakthrough. It is also a powerful sensory formation, and it projects all the data it is sensing in front of me.
I could see every second change that was happening to me.
Nothing, that is hidden.
That is what frustrated me the most, as I could not sense any problem with changes. From every angle, I looked. They are something that is beneficial to me.
But my instinct is telling me, there is something nefarious in them.
My instincts are never wrong.
I will find it eventually and hope, that when I do. It is not too late.
Finally, the merging is finished.
It made me happy despite my worries. The most dangerous and painful part of the breakthrough is over.
Now it is a consolidation. It is not as dangerous as merging, but still as important. If any problem occurred, I could say goodbye to breakthrough and my life.
It took thirty-nine seconds for the consolidation to start.
In the minute, the solid layer formed a top of it, before going deeper.
Like the other process, I looked at every change and hoped, no problem would occur.
This breakthrough is very important to me. If I am not wrong, this breakthrough will put me in the league of the strongest Sky Sovereigns.
I need the strength because I am feeling quite weak in Avros.
I could defeat any member of Avros, even before my breakthrough, but they are not the challenges.
The challenges are the spires, who give me strange feelings and mist energy. Which made me feel like an ant in front of the mountain.
It is why, I want to gather enough evidence to bright those who could deal with the challenge, because I am not way capable of that.
I took a deep breath and focused on my core.
The consolidation is nearly over. In a minute, I will either succeed or fail.
Seconds felt like a minute. They passed excruciatingly slow.
After what it felt like days, the consolidation is finally over.
I looked at my core, which never looked so beautiful. It feels like a real world, and it is like a real world. Seeing it is capable of sustaining flora and fauna.
Buzz!
I was admiring my core when it buzzed, and the runes came out.
They begin to spread into every part of me. Going deeper, than had ever before.
It took them over a minute to spread into every inch of me. They are everywhere, including in my very strange hair.
Buzz!
The core buzzed again and released the floor of energy through the runes it had spread.
Ahhh!
The energy entered my body, and I moaned as my cells began to absorb it like hungry wolves. They will absorb the moment, it comes.
Thank god, the core is sending the energies at the perfect speed. If it had been slower, those cells might have eaten each other.
I could feel my strength rising every second. It is faster than I had thought.
Minutes passed before, finally, the last drop of energy got absorbed. Taking me formally into the High-level of Earth Sovereign Stage.
One more level and I could start preparing for the Sky Sovereign.
I feel like, I could do everything with my power. The feeling of invincibility course through me. I need to take a couple of deep breaths to control it.
As I did, I closed my eyes and entered my core.
When I saw the changes, a smile couldn’t help, but appear on my face.
There are no big changes, but these changes will bring bigger effects.
The energy becomes denser and so capacity of the core. Its space remained the same, but now, I could bring more monsters with greater power.
This place has a lot of powerful monsters, and I am going to take enough of them in my core that I will not need to worry about them for a year at least.
I looked at each of the changes carefully, before walking toward the late.
My clones are already there, along with the preparations.
I am going to create the twelfth clone, which will be the final clone of this stage.
