Chapter 2238 - The Growth

I woke up after sleeping four hours and felt completely refreshed. Though, I was not much tired, to begin with, as I had told Lord Whitmore.
I did not get up as I woke up; instead, I closed my eyes and entered my core. I had resisted for quite a long to carefully look inside my core, but no more. Now, I want to look at each and each changes carefully.
The first thing I saw was the multi-color crystalline snowy grain under my feet; they have formed on the thin layer on the whole ground of the small island.
It is purified crystalline energy specks that the moon had released after my breakthrough as it absorbed the thick energy in the melody Garden. It would take them a while before they merged with my core; it would not only strengthen them but also make the soil even more optimal.
The energy inside my core is dense, and its density would increse even further after my core is done digesting the crystalline snow.
The plants have grown a lot; the biggest growth occurred in none other than the mysterious tree, which had grown forty meters tall, taller than the average trees in the world.
Unlike the average tree, its trunk is thicker and its branches wider. It is very clear that the tree would not stop growing at this stage; it had a lot of potentials before and would grow taller from I can tell.
As for how tall it might grow, I have no freaking idea.
The second most important tree in my core, the essence tree, has also made huge progress. It had sucked all the twenty-four essences of metal, leaving not a single one behind, and for it had a lot to show.
In just a short time of a few days, it went from having flowers of some fruits to actually having the fruits and not one or two or ten but all twenty-four of them. One could see all twenty-four multicolored essence fruits hanging by the tree.
These fruits are eatable, but due to their level, they would not provide as many benefits they could; they have not even reached the Tyrant grade yet.
Though I am not worried about their growth, I would need to harness a Bloodline of another Grandmaster before they reach the Tyrant stage and a few more Grandmasters again before they reach the stage where they will be able to get the optimal benefits.
The fruits would have already reached the Grandmaster grade if the tree prioritized its own growth over the growth of the tree, which I think is a wise choice.
The tree has since doubled in size since I had found her, which is a good thing, as only a robust tree would be able to produce the highest grade fruits, and I am more than willing to provide it all its needs for its growth.
Aside from these two unique trees, others have grown immensely. Every tree, whether it is herb or root, had Master class resources on them, and six even had Grandmaster class resources; seeing those, my eyes couldn't help but shine brightly.
Each of my breakthroughs would require unique, powerful resources; the quantity would not be enough, I would need quality too.
One thing that made me quite happy is the seeds of aralas grapes that I have planted right before my fight with Grimms, and it is the best decision I have made. Within a few days, the seeds have turned into grown trees with grapes on them.
Those grapes are no low-level grapes, but Master class grapes, and I require them immediately, not only for myself but also for my experiments.
I walked toward those trees and harvested a few clusters off them while leaving the most. I still want them to reach the Grandmaster level, and the only thing I have to do is hunt the Grandmasters.
I would have to be very careful with the resources here. Unlike the Masters, there are a limited number of Grandmasters, and even among them, the minority are with bloodline, and more than half of them, I could not defeat.
Aside from a lot of time, these Grandmasters are the only things that could help me grow a Grandmaster level resources. So, I have to be very careful on how I use the resources produced in my core; I could not spend them on frivolous activities.
Hun!
After the plants, I looked at the other things, especially focusing on the nine plated quern, which are refining the corrupted soul flames, and the refining speed is very slow.
So slow that even after more than four days, not a single wisp of flame had reached the last plate.
The flames are at the seventh plate, and to reach the ninth plate, it might take weeks and more than a month to complete all the flames stored in the quern. Which is quite long, and I could wait that long to get the end product.
My quern is powerful, but it had a limit due to its grade.
I had noticed the slowness and had made my avatar research it; it was able to find the reason for the slow refinement.
It was its art, which used some powerful resources. Some elements of these resources merged with Grimm energy made something that is very hard to destroy.
Fortunately, I have found a way to make the process faster with one of the things I had gotten not long ago.
I waved my hand, and the next second, a yellow shiny jagged crystal appeared in my hand. It is the side of an adult thumb, quite small in size when one considers it is the core of Thunder Hog, a Grandmaster class monster.
Lightning is an extremely good purifier of corrupted things. The core had powerful raw thunder inside it, and with the current tools, I could use that raw thunder inside it to purify the corruptness from the soul flames.
With command and thick transparent wires came out of each plate of quern before the end of the wire merged and formed something akin to the holder.
I placed the thunder hog core in it; just as I did, it closed immediatly, and yellow lightning runes began to appear on the wires, and soon it had spread into the quern, covering all of its nine plates.
