Chapter 2100 - Hazarus Cycle Of Twenty Four Essence I woke at the first buzz of my halowatch after taking four hours of sleep; the first thing I did was freshen up before I walked into the kitchen and started cooking myself a breakfast. I wanted to check out the things immediately, but I controlled myself; once I had gone inside me my core, I would not come out of it soon, so it is better that I eat; otherwise, I would be feeling quite hungry while I work. Soon, I finished up the breakfast and comfortably laid on the couch before I went back to my core. It looked the same as yesterday with one small change; the metal essence tree had been completely healed. It is now the same golden-green color with metallic sheen as I had seen it the first time; the only thing it does not have are the fruits. After taking a glance at the tree, I took the package in my hands and unloaded it fully, bringing out all the things it contained. There are resources I would need for my art to the resources I had ordered from my mentees, but my focus is on the huge wooden chest that Grand Commander had sent me. Click! I walked to the chest and opened it, and there I saw different types of things sealed in different bottles and storage. They have sealed so perfectly that not a speck of aura could be leaked out of it. Other than the resources, there is also a letter inside the chest with the seal of the Grand Commanders' office. I took the letter and opened it before I started reading it, and the more I read, the more my expressions would change. "Those bastards!" I let out the curse as I finished up the long letter. When I returned to the fort after the mission, I had informed the Grand Commander about finding an essence tree and even told her I was successfully able to move it to the spatial treasure I have. I have no other choice but to inform her as only she could provide the resources I would need to produce truly high-grade metal essence fruits; those would be way better than general iron essence fruits I had gotten from the tree. I had demanded Grand Lord-level resources, and she had given them to me; the treasure chest contains resources that would the hell out of any Grandmaster who would see them; even Grand Lord would have a hard time resisting their temptation. The thing is, the resources are not free; seventy percent of the fruits I will get from the tree would go to the Pyramid and the nine supremes. In the broken tower, there are several books on the essence tree, and there are several methods to use them most efficiently as possible. There is one method I am going to use called a 'Hazarus Cycle of Twenty Four Essences. Through this method, I could harvest twenty-four fruits of twenty-four types in a single cycle. The conditions are quite heavy, and even powerful people might not be able to fulfill it, but I could. For this method, I would need twenty-four types of different metals, and pyramids and supremes are provided to me. All the twenty-four materials are Grand Lord level, and these metals are simple metals but metallic essences, which are thousands of times more precious than the metals. The Pyramid and supremes have put great trust in me by giving me such wealth that even Grimm Grand Lords would attack this fort for these resources if they know I have them with me; that's how precious they are. These resources have been collected for thousands of years, from dangerous places that are even dangerous to grand lords, but they have handed it to me. I looked through all the resources, some of them are known to me, and some of them are unknown; thankfully, Grand Commander has provided me with all the information I need. I looked at all the resources, and everything is perfect; Grand Commander has provided me with all the things I need, including a special formation ink I need. The grade of the formation ink I had asked for is quite high that it could not be produced in our world. 'Let's not waste any time,' I said and started filling the air pen with ink. Seeing the value of the essence tree, Grand Commander had procured me these things in a day, which could have taken a month if it were normal times with all the negotiation and necessary permissions required to take these things out of the treasuries. A few seconds later, the air pen was filled, and I walked toward the metal essence tree before I started to carve the formation. The formation covered the whole tree, from leaves to roots but also the ground around it. The formation was quite complex and needed me half an hour to carve it and another half an hour to double-check it several times. Buzz! I activated formation; it lit up before it transformed into a small circular pool around the tree, the pool that is divided into twenty-four parts for the twenty-four metal essences I would fill it with. With that done, I take out the first resource. It is in a palm-size bottle and looks like dark black liquid that is burning. It is an essence of abyssal aphate; it is definitely from the wisdom tower, only they need an abyssal element essence fruit. The Pyramid and supremes have taken the seventeen slots of twenty-four; of them, twelve are of the supremes while the five are of Pyramid. The rest seven are for me, which is a little lesser than I would like since I have the essence tree and I will be growing it with my risk, but I have to accept it because it is the Pyramid that is providing all the resources, including the seven slots that belong to me. I had sent a list to Grand Commander, and she gave me seven materials according to their priority in the list, which I am quite happy about, as, without her help, I would not even be able to collect a single resource of this level.
