3000 Limit

Even though I could not see its claws, I moved my sword, burning my essence at full power, without holding anything back.

I feared something like this would happen; there is a huge difference in strength between the Grimms and humans, and they will find a way to come at me in some way, and I had been prepared for it.

CLANNNNNNG!

My sword clashed against its fiery claws; the fire surrounded me immediately, and at the same time, I spurted out the, which burned away while I shot back like a cannon, with every bone on my body broken and flesh split apart.

The blow had been too powerful; I wouldn’t have survived something like that, and now I can.

The strengthening energy filled me, healing every damaged I had suffered. A second later, all the grievous injuries healed while the wings opened behind me, stopping the momentum that was sending me back.

The Grimms was coming for me, but before it could reach me, Ellen and Lady Vivian clashed against it.

The shining glass bound it while Ellen attacked it with thick holy bloodline energy covering her blade.

I moved away, but not too far; I needed to remain in the range to manage my strings.

Soon supreme commander too joined in, and three people of crystal domination began to fight against it.

The bastard had used the substitution method to get away; it is very good, and if it not for my strings, I wouldn’t have been sensed it.

It was too fast.

It will happen again, and I have to be careful; the humans might keep an on the method, but it is not the only method the Grimms have; there are numerous, and one will work eventually.

Another minute passed, and as I had expected, another Grimms was able to get away and hit me, but again, I had survived.

Eight seconds after that, the moment had come; the strengthening energy had begun to recede into my core from my body and soul.

I had reached the limit.

There is a massive amount of strengthening energy that has remained, but since I have reached the limit, it will be converted into growth energy and spread to the plants.

Buzz!

With the strengthening energy gone, my healing protection had also disappeared, but there was a second best option, which I have already, and it activated the moment the strengthening energy had disappeared from my body.

It filled me and made me feel cool all over my body; it was life-force from the necrotic tree.

It could not compare to strengthening energy, as it not only heals my injuries but constantly replenish my essence.

This life force could not do that well, though it would be good, healing my energies.

Still, the time clock had started for me; now, like others, I did not have unlimited strengthening energy. All of it would turn into growth energy, and it is also the same for the bloodline essence of the three Grimms.

All my share of bloodline essence will go to the mysterious tree, which will foster its growth and create a massive amount of growth energy.

I wish I could absorb it, but I am already extremely lucky to absorb so much.

I have harvested the bloodline energy of more than thirty-five lords and even merged with above old snakes’ essence and above-the-limit substance.

It is all due to the core’s element of rule-bending; without it, it wouldn’t have been possible. Nirvana also helped me tremendously; it expanded the limit of my body and soul by a lot.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

A few more minutes passed when finally, all three Grimms in my core turned into dust.

It had taken a lot more time than I had thought, a little more than nine minutes outside.

Six times more than what Raxth took, but it is not surprising, considering even with the help of Nero, three Grimms have put an immense amount of strain on my core, which had slowed down the process.

With them turning into dust, the growth energy had increased, but only by around 150%. It is not because there is not enough growth energy harvested, but because this is the limit of what mysterious the tree could release.

The limit is increasing as it is still growing, but I do not mind the slow release of it, as it will give the clone more time, to plant and harvest more resources.

CLANNNNNNNG!

Once again, the Grimm had appeared, and I swung my sword before being sent back vomiting with lots of broken bones, as not as many as before, but still many.

The formation inside me glowed with the power and sensed a large amount of life force into my body, which merged with rule power and began to seep into the injuries and heal them.

It is quite fast, not as fast as the strengthening energy, but still fast.

It had somehow advanced my rule by a little, likely because I understood the mortality deeper as I watched kindles struggling against the storm.

It is a great struggle where a single mistake would have cost us our lives.

It is our fortune that our world has produced so many of the great powerhouses, who are, despite being young, experienced and talented and working together without any problems.

If we did not have such great numbers, we might not be alive right.

We are not without mortality; in these past hours, millions of people died innocent humans, some of them had level lifted a weapon in their lives.

The shifting of battle here had mitigated a lot of that; nearly all shockwaves and energy storms created by the battle had been contained in the island, and there was barely anything that leaked out.

A few more minutes passed, and the battle got more desperate; the Grimms had gotten the impending feeling of danger while we were depleting our energies fast.

Even the life-force would not help anymore, as it is just a complementary resource; the real power is still given by the lifeforce they are burning.

A few more minutes and a couple of sneaky attacks later, a smile appeared on my face. Despite the resistance and constant attacks, I have the Grimm; it took me sixteen minutes, but I got the first of fourth.

Immediately, I focused on seconds.

While my strings are targeting all Grimms at once, they are focusing on a single Grimms at once; it is the best strategy.

If I focus on it all at once, it will take a huge amount of time, and by then, if we lose our essence, it will be very bad, which is why I am focusing on one Grimm at a time, so even if we lose our essence, we will still have a chance.

Rai is the best hope to deal with any Grimm if it remains.

He is the only person who is facing the Grimms head-on, and the Grimm it is fighting is the only Grimm that hasn’t attacked me yet.

He is growing powerful that, in a few minutes, he will have strength equal to the Grimm and surpass it in an hour.

The Grimm also seemed to understand that, seeing the way it was fighting.
