Chapter 2545 Master I An hour and a half passed, and since my core had begun to accept the energy and it is still doing that. The energy concentration in the artifact had reached the point where even a person couldn't see who is front of them. It is a good thing; these people are protected by the artifact; otherwise, even I don't know for how long my nearly depleted seeds would have been able to protect them against this concentrated energy. My core seemed to have an insatiable appetite, even after consuming a huge amount of energy. Its appetite did not seem to be satiated; it is still consuming the energies and would continue for some time more. The breakthroughs of the high Grandmaster lasted for hours; even though I am not breaking through into the High Grandmaster class, I am gaining its power. It could be said, I am breaking into High Grandmaster class if one forgets a little rule-bending. The core had also been guzzling up herbal essences constantly, but till now, barely half of it had been consumed. Those essences are extremly powerful, and on top of that, there are resources like the divine crystal and cosmic energy mixed into them. Even to my abnormal core, I would need quite a lot of time to consume it all. Though it is taking quite a lot of time, I am not bored; I am observing everything. Noting every point, not the in the formation but my own breakthrough. It would have been wonderful if I hadn't been restricted with my observation; I could not use my strength at all. It is quite a disadvantage, but it also made things quite fun and made me remember the days when I was just a knight. I was an ant to those above me, but now Grand Lords want to kill me, and the Grand Lords come to protect me. Another hour had passed when finally, my core stopped taking the herbal energy, and seeing that, I couldnt help but sigh in relief. There is barely 3% of essence has remained; if it had continued guzzling, I don't know what I would have done. I had an abundant amount of herbal essence in the storage, but I did not have much divine crystal and no cosmic energy. If I had used just the herbal essence, it might have broken a balance, and I do not want to see it happen, ever. While the core had stopped taking the herbal energy, it did not stop taking the wordly energy, and now its need for the herbal energy had been satiated, is fully focused on taking the worldly energy, and the sphere is ready to deliver it all. I had made the runes of the sphere strong, so strong that they were very much capable of transferring the colossal amount of energy through them, and they transferred for an hour and twelve minutes more when finally, the swirling of my core began to slow down. Within a few seconds, it had completely stopped, and the changes began to appear on it. It begins to change back to its previous shape of the word, but this time, the colors are more vibrant, and its aura is much heavier. Though there wasn't any change in the size of the core, If one looked at the core before and now, they would see a huge difference in them. In just a couple of seconds, the changes in the core had finished, and I could already feel the changes in the core without even entering inside, which I could not, as the breakthrough was not over. I had just thought that when my core lighted up softly and tens of runic chains came out of the core and began to spread into every part of my body. Buzz The chains were very fast, and it took them less than half a minute to spread through every part of my body, and just as they did, they buzzed alight while my core lit up like a blinding sun as it released the energy. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖 The thick, powerful breakthrough energy spread inside me, rapidly strengthening my body, soul, and energy. It is really thick, like honey but spreading inside me like the tide, merging into every part of me, strengthening them rapidly. I could feel myself getting stronger at visible speed, breaking fast the boundary of power that separates the Grandmasters and High Grandmasters. I am breaking through the Master's class, but in power, I had already reached the level that only a select few in the whole world could reach. Hun! I enjoyed the feeling of rising power when Nero contacted me and gave me the news instantly; the smile on my face vanished, and my expression became serious. For a while, I forgot where I was, but Nero had reminded me of that and how things had become even more dangerous for me. Though now, the things are not as dangerous as before, as I have made a breakthrough. Still, I have to be very careful; the Black Sharkman Fasra is no simple enemy; even for a council-members, he is an enemy they have to be serious about, and if I did not make changes in the constitution that give me the confidence, I wouldn't have even throught about surviving against it. As the time passed, more and more energy poured out of my runes and continued spreading inside, making me stronger and stronger with each second. It was nearly nine minutes when it had finally stopped; I had formally reached the Master class with the power of the High Grandmaster. I feel like a god, and this time, this feeling of omnipotence did not feel over the top. The high Grandmasters really do have the power close to the god; the strength they could control is incomparable to the Grandmasters. It took me a while to get control over emotions; it is better to get them in control, as that feeling of omnipotence could really fester and create troubles that are far worse than a life-threatening injury.
