Buzz! I heard the buzz, and the flood of crystalline strengthening energy came out of my core. It flooded into every corner of my body before it started to get absorbed by it. My body is hungry for it, and it begins to absorb it madly. Increasing my strength at incredible speed. I am shocked at the speed. I shouldn’t be. This is part of the absolute limit, Peak Prime. It contains incredible power, which I am more than happy to get. This battle made me realize. How weak I am compared to the others. If I had been alone. There would have been no chance of survival. Even if I used every trump card, I had. I would have died without any problem. I felt my strength rising, but also controlled the energy to not let my external injuries heal. I am still in precarious condition with a couple of Primes checking my condition. Some even used their soul sense to scan me as deeply as possible. They are not even hiding it. I am worried, but I know they will not find out anything. I had made preparations to stand against the Silver Prime. The only reason I am worried is because of the strengthening energy in my body. I am afraid. They might sense it. Though, the chances are slim. The strengthening energy isn’t the only thing that has been released. There is also a growth energy. The strongest kind and it is flooding into the plants, but I am not looking at them. My eyes are only on one thing and one thing only. For which, I had waited for a long time. Fruit. The seedling, or rather the tree now, had finally produced some fruit. There is only one fruit in over a hundred flowers. It didn’t look like any images of the world tree fruits; I had seen. It looked like a common fruit, but I know it is far from the common fruit. The nectar they had taken from it is a proof of that. Your journey continues with freewebnovel Minutes passed, and finally, the last drop of the strengthening energy was absorbed by my body. The growth energy had lasted for a little longer, but it got absorbed by the plants too. "The instability is subsiding slowly," said Prime Vratis. I planned to stay like this for a while. I need to be as convincing as possible about my performance. The time passed, and I stabilized the aura slowly, before finally opening my eyes. I saw Horyvos standing beside me, and he wasn’t the only one. There is also Vondell, who is maintaining the distance with him. It’s clear that he doesn’t like the other man or trust him. "Prime Arys. I am relieved, you are fine," said Vondell with relief flooding in his eyes. "I am not fine, but I will be," I replied, before gently sitting up. The mist had cleared and so had the bodies. All of them seemed to burning in a large furnace. It is a standard policy to do that, but I am sure, they all have collected ample samples before burning others. "Arys, thank you. Without your help, I would have died ten times over," he thanked. I could see Vondells turning bad for a fraction of a moment. I didn’t say anything other than smiling, before my expressions before serious. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞 ’What happened to the platform and gems?’ I asked. I know what happened, but I need to ask about it or it would seem suspicious. We have fought a massive battle. It would look strange if I didn’t ask about the prize. ’They took it,’ he replied with anger flashing in his eyes for a brief moment. ’It seemed like we are not getting anything from that?’ I asked, to which he shook his head. ’They promised to give us something of equal value,’ he replied. We both laughed as he said it. We are not going to get anything of a similar value. Even if we get it, we want those things, but there is no chance we will get them. A minute later, he walked away and summoned his abode. He is injured and needs rest. ’You shouldn’t have saved him. Taurus and his organization are at odds,’ said Vondell, with clear displeasure. "I am not a member of Taures, Prime Vondell. My decision will be based on my will," I replied, looking directly into the man’s eyes before slowly getting up and taking out my abode. He looked like he wanted to say something, but didn’t. ’Though, as I promised to Prime Carter. I will not do anything, that will harm Tauras,’ I added and stepped into my abode. I laid down on the couch and closed my eyes. Falling, asleep. The battle had made me tired. While my injuries had been healed, the battle had strained my body and soul. When I woke up, it was four hours later. I was feeling hungry, but I didn’t get up. Instead, I closed my eyes and entered my core. "It had fully transformed!’ I said, as I looked at my core. It looked so different than what it had been yesterday. Over 70% of the plants have reached the Prime. That is a huge thing, seeing the sheer number of plants. Many of which I had planted just a few months ago after my breakthrough into Sky Sovereign, which had increased the size of the islands. I would have been able to turn all the plants into Prime. If didn’t direct a lot of growth energy into specific plants to harvest a large number of resources off them. It is a wise choice as now; I have a large collection of them. It also means I could remove some of them as I won’t need them. I looked at each plant. The stainless lotuses that are floating beautifully in huge ponds, and the metal essence tree. I used all the Prime-grade metal essence; I had to harvest the fruits. Finally, my eyes turned to the greatest plant. The world tree seedling which produced its first fruit.
