Chapter 2858 Humbling

BOOOM!
"The power," I said as I listened to the boom that rang out as I punched in the air; the punch was casual, physical, without any energy, but it still broke the sound limit effortlessly.
If it had been a normal place, this is not all it would have been, but this place is a safe zone, and my strike neutralized before it even crossed a meter.
I wish I could have a place where I could practice at my heart's content; this safe zone is not a good place; there are too many restrictions to do any good practice.
I shook my head in a sigh before taking a step forward and immediately appearing beside the huge ball of boost, nearly crashing into it before I was able to stop myself an inch away. My strength has increased tremendously, and so is my senses; I need to learn to control them and work them in a synch.
Instead of that, I am increasing my strength further.
I wish the boost could wait, but I have already stretched my luck here.
Till now, no one has come, but it will not be the case forever; soon, the people will come, and they will not wait. Seeing a big ball of boost, they will immediately run toward it.
Hun!
"Let's eat it," I said, and then touched the boost; immediately, the boost disappeared and entered inside me.
The moment it spread inside and began to advance my strength, seeing the way it was increasing my speed, my eyes couldn't help but widen.
'No wonder the people are so crazy about it. If I had such a boost continuously, I would have been crazy about it too,' I said inside as the boost seeped inside me.
It took more than ten minutes for the huge boost to be completely absorbed, and I now feel even more powerful, but unfortunately, I do not have a scale through which I could measure my strength.
I shook my head before taking a step toward the formation and appearing inside; now that I had leveled up to the Grandmaster and taken the boost, it was time to do an important thing. I would have done it right after the breakthrough if not for the boost.
I sat down and closed my eyes; immediately, I appeared in my core, which now had become even more vibrant and energies inside even denser.
It felt like the whole garden is drenched in thick energy, and it is it felt wonderful.
I looked at Ashlyn and Nero; both of them were still sleeping, with a soft glow covering their bodies. They have not taken even a shred of energy from me, but still leveling up.
They have not taken any energies from me; both of them are quite capable of tapping into the very high-level energies of the universe, the ones I could sense, much less see. The only reason I knew about it was that I looked inside Nero, who was absorbing those energies with every breath.
I looked at it for a few seconds before walking toward the lake; appearing on the pure white crystalline rock inside the lake, which had been carved in the shape of a pool.
The small lake had changed quite some time; it had already the water when it formed, but the fire in it came a little later. The crystals, on the other, are the latest development, not so the latest, especially when one counts the time; it had passed in the core.
The crystals are the grace of the being that had tried to eat me and use my body to host its soul because of my constitution.
I don't know what the hidden being did to it; I only know when it an open restriction to my core a few minutes later, the crystals had been added into the lake.
It is not just crystals; the quality of water in the lake and sea has also changed.
These crystals are pure soul crystals; they will be a tremendous help when creating the clone.
The pool created into the created into the crystal is already filled; it is green and purple in color. One might have a hard time believing it, but if I count the soul crystals, the cost of creating the second clone is greater than leveling up to the Grandmaster class, which gave me the power of the Grand Lord.
I sighed once again at the cost before stepping into the pool; all the preparation had already been made. My clone is sitting in front of me, and my hand is a blood-soul stainless lotus.
It is the thing I used in creating the first clone, and it is the thing I will need to create the second and all the other clones. Which it is very important to choose a resource that could reach a very high level because if not, then you will have to stop practicing the method once the level of one's surpassed the resource.
The blood-soul lotus in my hand is High-Grandmaster grade, which might seem like a lower-level resource, considering my power, but it is not.
I am Grandmaster, and the lotus is level above it; not to mention it is capable of holding the power of the method, which is all that matter.
If it not for that, I would have waited to create my second clone; with war and the methods I have, I am confident I would have been able to bag at least one Grand Lord, which would have been enough to produce a Grand Lord-level stainless lotus.
I have waited for more than a year for a breakthrough; I could defiantly afford to wait for a few days, but I do not need to; I have everything I need.
"Let's begin," I said.
"Ok," said my clone and transformed into the energy and went inside the blood-soul stainless lotus in my hand; as it, I closed my eyes too, and a moment later, tiny silvery lines of runes began to come out of my temple.
The runes may be small, but they are jammed-packed with soul power; I need to use my soul power to create the vast formation. I still remember how difficult it had been last time; I had to burn my soul for extra power. I really hope I do not need to do that right now.
I should have enough energy for the clone.
The constant lines of tiny silver runes came out of my temple, and they would enter the lotus, covering every part of it, from stem to petals.
As the runes came out, I saw my soul energy draining; before I knew it, half of the soul energy was already gone, and there were still quite many few runes to be materialized.
60%, 70%, 80%, 90%.
Even after draining 90% of my soul energy, there were still runes I had to materialize, and I continued doing that, even when the soul energy was 95% and 98% a few minutes after.
Soon, the consumption of soul energy reached 99%, and I could barely keep my thoughts straight.
It wasn't long before I felt all-powerful and mighty and had the power to destroy the world, but now, I felt like I couldn't even hurt a child.
It is really quite a humbling experience.
