Chapter 2576: Leaving The Ruin
"We really did not find any everessence," Rai said with a sigh as I took out the bottle of ever-essence from the phantom, and lady Atkins sat on the disk to recover.
The phantom is still on the disk and now covering the lady Atkins, but it is not doing anything. I have designed it in such a way that once any human sits on the disc, it will deactivate on its own and activate as the human leaves the disk.
This way, I would be able to use every drop of every essence that came out from the disk.
"We have found the other treasures, which are in no way inferior to the everessence," I said, and three crystals glittered in my hand.
There are three crystals in my hand, each one of a different color and has a different function. The green one contains extremly dangerous poison energy; it has the power to kill the High Grandmasters easily;
The second one is azure; it is for the strengthening and speed; these crystals would always light up when the vine was to increse its power. The third and the last crystal is red in color; it looks like a ruby it contains pure healing energy.
It is the densest and purest healing energy I had ever seen; the vines hadn"t used this one, likely because we have never forced it to; our attacks were useless to it; even Rai"s sphere was not able to breach more than an inch of vines surface.
I have taken a risk and used the green crystal in recovery formation, and the result was astonis.h.i.+ng. I am recovering my essence twice a faster speed than I should; at this speed, it wouldn"t take me more than two days to recover.
"How far are you in opening your fourth seal?" I asked; I knew the answer but still asked. Opinion matters, it is also a form of data, and I like to collect as much data as possible.
"I think it will break on its own in two days; if I wish to, I could break it immediately," He said and looked at me in askance, "Don"t let it break on your own; it will have the perfect a.s.similation," I cautioned him.
His condition is extremly complicated; the mutation had made him stronger and brough such changes to him that even if he did not work hard, not focus even a minute on practice, and just stayed in his room, he would advance.
From what I have seen so far, he will become a Grand Lord; there is not a single doubt about it. As long as he is alive and controls that mutation of his, he will become a Grand Lord and advance even further.
There is constant friction between the core and mutation, even when they are in balance, and this friction continues to increase their power and purity, which brings advancement.
It is extremly important that both things be kept in the balance, a single wrong step and he will turn into an abomination.
I simply lay on the ground and watch Lady Atkins taking the everessence; it is helping her recover fast. The sooner she recovers, the quicker we will be able to get out of it, as she is the only one who could create the tunnel out.
We are not powerful enough to walk through that raw energy that is around the cavern; it will tear us apart.
I looked at her for a moment before I went to my core, where my clone was staring at a giant phantom. The phantom of the vine, and it is huge.
When it had attacked us, I was able to send one of the most powerful investigation seeds inside it, and now I have its meta-scan.
It is a vine with nine hundred sub-vines; when it had attacked, it gravely underestimated us and had only used around six fifty vines. If it had used the other two fifty-vines, the strongest ones, even my strings wouldn"t have been able to hold back against them.
All the vines came out from the single huge vine, which was deep underground, in a place where all the energies of the poison domain gathered before they came up.
Killing the vine would be extremly hard; one just needs the strength of absolute peak High Grandmaster to deal with the nine-hundred sub-vines. As for dealing with the main vine, I don"t think even the strength of the High Grandmaster would be enough.
I will warn Lady Atkins about it before leaving; she shouldn"t absolutely go to the poison region unless she reaches the absolute peak of the High Grandmaster cla.s.s; only that way she will be able to guarantee her survival, even if the main vine had attacked her.
The vine is not from any type of vine I had studied; it might be something I don"t know or something that is mutated from something else; I will have to look at some books before I could say anything about its origin.
I studied the vine for a few minutes with my clone before we went back to study different things. There are so many things to do, even with a clone; I did not feel like any pressure on me had lessened considering the huge workload that had been piled up from me.
"I have recovered," said Lady Atkins and walked out of the disk; as she did, the phantom again took her place, and I threw another bottle at it to collect the water elemental ever-essence.
"Let"s go; I have been receiving constant summons from the Pyramid," said Rai; he is not the only one. I, too, have been receiving a constant summons. We have stayed longer than we should, and now, the Pyramid is worried.
Soon we reached the exit of the cavern, and Lady Atkins moved her hands about ten minutes later; the tunnel formed in the dense raw elemental energy.
We flew through it, and a few seconds later, we were out; three peak Grandmasters have already waiting for us. The two were the ones who came with Rai and Lady Atkins, while the third one was new, and she looked to be in quite a sour mood.
All three of them looked at us and couldn"t help but be surprised, especially the Grandmaster in the middle; she seemed quite surprised seeing Lady Atkins and me, despite being already aware of our breakthrough.
I had informed Pyramid about mine and lady Atkin"s advancement when she was breaking through.
Though, the woman quickly controlled her expression and once again looked at us with a sour face.
"Lord Solace, Lord Zaar, you have been immediately asked to present yourselves to the Pyramid," She said before she turned to the Lady Atkins.
"Lady Atkins, the Pyramid had made you a temporary caretaker of the navar ruin until further notice," said the woman, like she was reading the order.
"Little veronica, you shouldn"t always be so serious; your Grandfather was such a funny man; he would be turning his grave if he knew his descended was such a sour face; you know he used to hate such people," Rai said with a smile, but next second the smile on his face froze up when the women glared at him.
"It seemed we have stayed here enough, Micheal," said Rai awkwardly as he turned to me, "Wait for a minute," I said to him and disappeared from my spot.
My speed was much lesser than I would like, but I still appeared at a destination in a few seconds, in front of a young man and woman.
"So, have you decided?" I asked; I had given them enough time to make the decision; they should have made a decision by now.
"We are coming," replied Eiligh with the same conviction she had when I asked her last time. I nodded and turned to the young man beside her, "I am also coming," he said after some hesitation.
"Since you have decided, let go," I said and covered them with my energy, and we disappeared from our spot and appeared beside Rai and others a couple of seconds later.
"These two are coming with us," I inform, which clearly surprised them. "Lord Zaar, you know the rules; the Pyramid will not make an exception, even for you," said Grandmaster Veronica as she looked at two people.
"You don"t have to worry about that; I will talk to the council personally," I replied, to which she nodded and activated her beacon, Rai, and also activated our beacon, including the temp ones I have placed on the siblings.
