The seed absorbed all the Knight-class essence roses and moved to Lord-grade essence roses. It had taken seven seconds to absorb the first, six seconds to absorb the second, four seconds to absorb the third, and one second to absorb the fourth. By it is the fifth essence rose of Lord class, it had been absorbed in less than a second; after that, Lord class essence roses began to disappear one after another, and before I knew it, all seven hundreds of them had vanished, and it moved toward the Duke class essence roses. The same thing begins to happen with Duke class essence roses. While it absorbs essence roses and a huge amount of growth energies, there was no sign of germinating. This is the seed that is not easy to grow; it takes years for one to know whether germination failed or not, while this process quickened by the thousands of times with the growing energy. There are grey swirly marks appearing on the seed, but it is not proof that it will succeed. They appeared as if they absorbed the energy; only when it germinated; would I know whether it was a success or not. I really hope it is a success because there are a lot of things riding on it, most importantly, the growth energy. I am using a lot of growth energy on it, which could help me grow many resources that will be useful and the Grand Lords, especially the new resources I got from the old snake. I am growing some of them but could grow even more if I did not use the huge amount of growth energy in the seed. Soon, the Duke-grade essence roses disappeared, and King class began. It started to absorb them too and, in little more than a minute, was finished with them too and moved to Emperor class essence roses, which it finished less than three minutes before moving to Tyrant class. The necrotic blood spill tree is different from most other plants I have come across, as most plants the resources according to the level of nutrients they absorb, but not this tree. It starts from Primary-I class or Tyrant stage, which is why it is also called the Grand Lords tree because the resources produced from this tree are the Grand Lord class from the beginning. The last necrotic blood spill tree was very tightly guarded, but Grimm, in their ways, were able to entice students that Grand Lord. It was a major incident that forced Pyramid to change many of its policies, especially related to restricted information and resources. Even Grand Lords couldn't tell anyone easily. Within a few minutes, the Elite, Leader, and Master class essence roses had also disappeared, and it began to suck the Grand Lord class essence roses. I had used nearly all my essence roses, turning them into rose vines, but those rose vines were able to kill many Grandmasters and produced many more essence roses, which I have taken from the Pyramid. It is a good thing I did, as now they are turning out quite useful to me. While it was happening, four more Grimms entered the battlefield; I felt their gazes on me, and thankfully Supreme Commander took quick action. She arrived, and with her was her sister Lady Vivian, both of the sisters went toward the new Grimms that arrived, seeing that I couldn't help but take a sigh of relief, while it made Mazla angry. It seemed to hurt its pride that they needed the reinforcement for it to kill me, a young Grand Lord, as it began to shower me with attacks from outside while trying to burn my shields in the inferno, which had now become even hotter. It is great; while it is attacking, I could focus on that wonderful plant, as it will be hard to kill another Grimm again, how far they have run away from me, and while the Rose Redemption has a long-range, it is not that long. Though with every Grimm I consume, its range would increase, and so is its power. Every second, right, I am getting stronger by strengthening my energy, which in turn strengthens my abilities. I looked around for a few more seconds before focusing on the core, where the seed had just finished consuming the Grandmaster class essence roses and now turned to High-Grandmaster class. The marks on it are becoming more profound; when I compared it with the marks on the past seed, I found the marks on my seed more vibrant and prominent. It would have been wonderful if I had images of the seed that her excellency planted but did not leave behind the images. I watched it with great focus, recording everything for future purposes and also adding notes, which is quite easy at my core. I just need to think of words, and they will appear much faster than writing at Grand Lord speed. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚 Soon, it had consumed Grand Lord class essence roses, and now it is turning toward Grand Lord class lotuses; I have only six of them, but I think they would be enough. A few seconds after it started consuming the Grand Lord class essence roses; a change occurred in the seeds that were not mentioned in the boost.] Hun! It lit up, and marks on it began to change rapidly; I was watching when suddenly, the seed cracked open, and a small sapling came out of it, split the ground, and came out in the light. It did not stop growing, nor I had expected with the growth energy supporting it; it continued to grow. At first, it looked like a normal plant, but as it began to grow bigger, those notable changes began to appear on it. Multiple branches begin to split from it and with minimum leaves, which is usually not the case with plants grown with growth energy. But this one looked like it had grown in a parched land. It had dried bark, thin branches, and few leaves. It looked like it is the verge of dying, but it was not the case at all. One looked inside it; they would be shocked by the amount of vibrancy this plant had; it is really shocking. No plant in my core possesses as raging vitality as this nearly dead looking plant does. It stopped growing when it had reached over two meters tall and consumed half of the resources; as it happened, its speed of consuming the essence roses increased suddenly by four times, and the black essence rose to begin to shrink at visible speed and before disappearing. It was the turn of blue essence rose, but I am not looking at it. I am looking at the white sap that begins to come out of its bark, the sap filled with such vibrancy that it is just breathing in; I begin to feel alive and refreshed. This sap is one of the resources that everyone desire; it could injure and help increase the chances of a breakthrough, but its biggest use is recovering the lost life force. For this reason, I have paid such a high price to an old snake; with this resource, I could recover my life force in a matter of hours instead of days. For someone like me, it is a resource that is worth fighting to the death for.
