Chapter 4449: Swallowing II
Feeling the growth energy, a bold idea came to my mind.
Though I hesitated, because if I failed, I would waste the most powerful growth energy I had ever received. That would benefit me tremendously.
I remained hesitant only for a moment before I made the decision.
At that same moment, the entire growth energy converged on the single plant. Yes, I am giving it my whole heart, in the hopes that it will help it survive.
I watched it, and my expression became worse as I felt it was doing barely anything.
The blood energy has become too vast, and even now, its volume is increasing, while growth energy is healing and advancing it, but not at a fast enough pace.
Hun!
A few more seconds passed, and I thought of cutting it, when I noticed something.
I saw it transferring over half of the growth energy to the plants in its domain. There are many plants, and seeing their benefits, I have planted every inch of their domain.
For a few seconds, I was confused, as I could have done it more efficiently, but soon I noticed something.
It is making changes in these plants as these small changes are made. It began to send something to those plants, another type of energy.
The blood energy.
I thought it would tear them apart, even the small amount it is sending their way, but it’s not.
Instead, the blood energy is getting refined by these plants before coming back to it for absorption. It began to use these plants as an extension of its digestive system.
"My god!" I gasped.
Seconds passed, the small stream had turned into a surge as small changes turned big.
By the end of the minute, a large amount of blood energy had entered these hundreds of plants. It gets refined and absorbed back by the plant.
The changes are not only happening to the little plants, but also to the plant.
It underwent rapid changes internally, utilizing growth energy while advancing simultaneously, and refined blood energy.
Still, its state is precarious because a massive amount of blood energy is being directed at it, and it is increasing even now.
Seconds passed and turned into another minute, and the state of the plant was much better than before. It is now slightly bigger and healing faster, while refining more energy.
’What is happening?’ he asked. "I am killing you, the same way, you wanted to kill me!’ I replied.
’You cannot consume me, I will be the one consuming you!’ it roared. ’But first, I will deal with this bloody plant!’ it stated and released even more energy.
Earlier, it felt controlled, but now there is an uncontrollable quality in it, and it is rapidly increasing.
I frowned and looked at the plant worriedly. Its condition had only been able to stabilize, but now, it had become worse again.
I wanted to do something, but I could do nothing other than watch.
The condition becomes worse as the uncontrollable blood pressure begins to flow into the plan, but around a minute later, I noticed it is slowly stabilising despite increasing energy.
It had connected all the plants with its roots and formed a grand digestive system.
It begins to send all the energy into it and the system, not only bore it, but also refine, which it would absorb along with the growth energy.
It is advancing with the energy of growth, becoming more powerful every second, while healing its injuries.
Soon, it had reached the level of the plant I had seen in the Violet Zone and was still getting powerful.
Over three minutes passed, and its injuries had healed, but it had also reached the limit. It could not grow any powerful; that is, it could not absorb any more growth energy.
It had grown very powerful, more than that plant in the violet zone, which was at the limit of Prime.
Its limit should have been the same, but after years in the core absorbing forbidden power, which is present in every part of the core. Along with my actively feeding it, its limit increased beyond what should have been possible.
Though it still worried me, without growth energy. Things could become difficult.
I directed growth energy to the metal essence plant and a few other plants without taking my eyes off the plant. Hoping it would not collapse without it.
A few seconds passed, and a shock appeared in my eyes.
I was worried about what it would do since it had reached the limit. It can’t use refined energy to fuel its growth. It could absorb some and send it to plants, but it needs to deal with 80% of the refined energy itself, without absorbing it.
It is creating a storage of it beside its core.
Concentrating that energy at a single point. At first, it was a dot, but slowly it became bigger as more refined energy its added to it.
It looked pure ruby, and it is growing bigger.
He seemed to sense that as well and pumped more blood energy, but everything is getting smoothly refined into pure blood energy.
And pure blood energy is refined through the green element. Making it very precious.
So much that even a child would be able to use it without suffering any side effects. However, it is far too powerful for a child.
He kept trying, but failed as the plant absorbed everything he had sent to it.
It’s when I sensed the change in it, which alarmed me.
’I have failed,’ he said with his voice heavy with defeat. ’But don’t think you will come out alive through it. I will take you with me as well as this bloody plant!’ he roared, with all the rage in the world.
I felt the instability in the core and was about to move toward it to deal with it, when I noticed the plant doing something.
A part of it opened and swallowed the core.
At first, nothing happened, but soon, I noticed the instability lessening and the core calming down.
’No!’ he screamed and tried to self-destruct, but it couldn’t. Instead, the plant began to pull the energy out of the core and refine it into the pure blood crystal, while he raged.
It made me relieved, but also curious what it will do when it reaches the deepest part of the core.
There won’t be the blood energy alone, but I will have to wait for that. It’s such a regret that I won’t be able to watch from now on.
At least for a while.
I reached the village, and the battle is still raging.
I saw the battle before me; it is everywhere, with three fighting against the Master, while others are fighting against the hosts and the monsters.
The battle seemed to be at a stalemate. The itornas aren’t weak, and they have come prepared.
They had brought a large number of monsters, which is taking quite a lot of our manpower. If it were not for the village supporting them, it would have been very bad.
Still, things are not good.
I wish the fight had ended by now. Since it didn’t, I moved forward, with new strength coursing through my veins, making me stronger every second.
