Chapter 2223 - Breakthrough With command, hundreds of resources fell on their faces, from essences to the plants in their raw form, metallic ores, and crystal, every type of resource could be seen on the huge formation. I checked the resources and saw no problem in them; I summoned out the thirteen wooden and crystal boxes of all sizes and shapes. The twelve of the thirteen boxes contain the powerful resources I had harvested in my core not so long ago, and while the last box contains the strange crystal in a manor, the one my runes desired hungrily. I removed them carefully before beginning to place them in their respective places. These resources are very precious, and if Jim saw them, he would not hesitate to give me a lot of Grandmaster class resources in their exchange. These resources are special; they contain something special, and even rare and precious resources planted in this place do not. If it had not been for my core and rule-bending power it contained, I would not have been able to sprout a single seed, no matter how many times I would have tried. After placing the resources in the formation and checking their placement one more time, I went to my core and activated the breakthrough process before activating the formation. Buzz! The formation buzzed as I had activated it, and at the same time, the runes inside me began to recede to the core, and a couple of seconds later, all the runes went back to my core, making me feel powerless. The runes are what enable me to project the power that my core contained, and it does feel good to lose the connection with it. As all the runes receded back into my core, it began to spin. It was slow at first, but with every second, its speed got faster and faster. As it got faster, it began to suck the energy, and seeing my expression couldn’t help but turn back. I had placed a very powerful energy crystal in the formation, but my core had completely ignored it and began sucking the chaotic energy around me. The process would have been more painful, but I was prepared for it and had formation, which mellowed this energy a little. Still, I felt like hot lava was tearing through my body, and as the time passed, my core began to suck even more energy making the process even more painful. I could see the signs of energy poison begin to appear on my body and soul, and they began to spread, giving me injuries. It continued for several minutes till finally, all the resources transformed into essences and merged before herbal formation covered every part of my body, which began to transfer a large number of herbal energies into my core. It blunted the force of the chaotic energy and gave me the relief I needed, but at the same time, it made my core even more hungry. It now begins to spin very fast, pulling up a large number of essences every second, but at the same time, it begins to pull a large amount of pure chaotic energy. The whirlpool of chaotic energy got bigger and bigger till it had covered the whole breakthrough formation and still got bigger. I couldn’t help but shudder at the throught of getting more chaotic energy inside, as I am already getting it in an extremely high amount, more than I had expected, and instead of stopping, the appetite of my core kept increasing. It is not just my core taking these energies, but a large share of it, about 30% of it, is getting sucked by the moon. Unlike before, the moon is not releasing mellowed speckled crystals; it is just absorbing them. I have no idea what it will do with it; I just hope there is no harm come to me due to it. There is another strange thing that is happening; my core is not touching the strange crystal. Despite my runes crazily hungering for its energy, it is not taking even a speck for it, which couldn’t help but shock me. I kept my eye on the crystal while my core kept guzzling more and more resources. I have placed more resources than I needed for the breakthrough, but it seemed like I would need all the resources here. An hour had passed, and my core had consumed 90% of resources and now spun even faster, consuming the resources at even greater speed while the whirlpool above me, grown triple the size formation mat that I am sure even Grimms would see it happening. My plan on keeping everything under the wrap had already gone to the drain, and now I am in danger. One broken formation had moved very close to giant Whirpool; it could fall into it any second. The formation is small about my size but poses a great danger, and my friends know it, and they are trying to push it away from Whirpool, but they are not getting any success. I wish I could do anything about it, but I was powerless; I could only watch as the scythe of the reaper came closer and closer to me. Seconds passed by painfully before suddenly the formation fell into a whirlpool. As I fell in it, I felt its aura, and horror couldn’t help but appear on my face while the whirlpool began to shake. Hun! I had throught the whirlpool would break before the formation fell me and kill me when suddenly, the moon inside me shone like a blazing sun. I wished with shock and amazement when I saw the formation meting in from of my eyes before coming at me, and soon that melted cyan liquid touched my body and seeped through me before getting sucked by the moon. As the moon sucked the formation, it stopped sucking the chaotic energies while still remaining blazing like the sun. Rumble! It took me a while to get over my shock, and just when I did, I received another shock. The blazing moon rumbled with loud sound before thick bright cyan energies were released from it and began merging with my core. It had only released the energy for thirteen seconds before it stopped, and its blazing shine began to mute away before it had completely disappeared. At the same time, the spinning of my core began to slow down with its consumption of energy, and essence also began to slow down. One and half a minute later, it had completely stopped spinning and taking the energies and essence. Buzz! For a second, my core remained quiet before runes came out and began to spread all over my core; seeing that smile couldn’t help but appear on my face. I have reached the near end of my breakthrough; all the dangerous parts are over, and in a couple of minutes, my breakthrough will be finished. I would reach the Mid-level of Tyrant stage and be a leader class Tyrant with the power of Grandmaster. Buzz! It took thirty-seven seconds for the runes to reach every part of me, and when they did, my core buzzed and shone and released the energies so thick that it blew my mind and made my runes shine in red hot intensity.
