Monster Integration

Chapter 3192 Breakthrough

"Good girl," I said to the wolf monster as I fed her the strips of meat. She ate it before coming to snuggle against me, licking my face.

She is a young wolf monster that I had been feeding every few days since I had come here. The wolf is cute and quite obedient, and also intelligent enough to follow complex commands.

The people here had taught her well.

I played with her for an hour before I went back to my cabin. As I entered inside, I went to the practice room directly. 

It is time that I make the breakthrough to the Peak of Primary II.

The treatments I have gone through in the past one and a half month is going to make it difficult.

If I had made a breakthrough without it, it would have been smooth like the last breakthrough, but I am not the person to take things easy.

I laughed at that thought before waving my hand and immediately, a square red crystal plate appeared on the wooden floor. I have changed my breakthrough formation again.

I had to; I could not let a single thing come back to me. Thankfully, it is not a big thing for my breakthrough formation.

A moment later, resources appeared on it, over 95% of them were in essence form, prepared by me. Some of them were very hard to process, and I had failed a couple of times before succeeding.

It helped me improve my alchemy skill; not to mention, saved me a lot of money.

Processed resources are expensive. Even with failures, I have saved a tremendous amount of money by processing them myself. 

These resources are also huge amount. Forget those who are breaking through for the Peak of Primary II, even those who are breaking through for the Peak of Primary III wouldn't use resources in such an amount.

I looked at everything before floating up in the center of the formation. 

I had been waiting for this moment. If I had wished, I would have been able to go through it two months ago and it would have made things quite easy for me, but I have waited.

Now, if I can make a breakthrough, it will be all worth it.

Buzz!

I took a deep breath and initiated the breakthrough; a moment later, the breakthrough formation buzzed, and with it, the brown-green formation inside my skin also appeared out.

It will play an important role in this breakthrough, or should I say, make it more dangerous.

I just hope it will behave as I predict it would be. Going above that will make me pay a very high price.

As the breakthrough formation activated, the essences begin to come out of the bottles and begin to fill the runes. It is happening fast, faster than it had to happen during the normal breakthrough.

While others may be able to make a breakthrough in it; I have designed it myself, and now even better than before.

It had gone through several upgrades in the ruin, powerful upgrades. Not just materials improved, but also the formation with the massive amount of data I have got.

The data is impressive. I have not thought I would be able to get such data and run a few experiments when I entered the ruin.

Fifteen minutes later, the runes were ready, and they moved toward me like a tide within a few seconds. The runes have covered every part of my body; from head to toe, there is not a single inch that is opened.

While it was happening, the changes were also happening to my core, which was turning into a blob of the world.

One and a half minutes later, my core had turned into a complete blob and begin to spin slowly. As it did, it begin to pull the resources inside, while at the same time, the brownish-green formation also started to shine.

For a few seconds, everything was fine, but soon, I begin to feel the pain.

It was slight at first, but slowly it increased till it became painful. 

The normal breakthrough should be painless, but it is brownish green formation is doing something to my body and soul; something quite dangerous.

Nobody in a sane mind will try to do something like that; even those insane wouldn't do it, as it would make their breakthrough unsuccessful.

Unless it is what they are trying to do.

I am not. I am different from the others, the forbidden power inside my cell and speck of the soul let me do this thing. Even with it, I need to be careful; it won't be an overstatement if I say, I am dancing on the edge of the blade.

The pain continued to increase, till I needed to grit my teeth to bear it.

Thankfully, it had stabilized by them, but even then, it is extremely painful, and it will last till the end of the breakthrough. Where I will know when I succeed or not.

A failure will give me pain greater than this, just thinking about it made my whole-body shudder. A success, on the other hand, will make me climb the first step toward the sovereign stage.

An hour passed, and my core had consumed half of the resources.

Seeing that, a smile couldn't help but appear on my face. I have done tinkering with my breakthrough, so my core will absorb more resources than it should. 

Doing that is extremely dangerous, but I don't have any choice.

Every minute, my core would consume more and more resources. Its speed is immense. If anyone were to see it, they would get shocked. This is why, to guard against it, I had created a cloak around the formation.

I feel it is good enough to even fool the casual swipe of soul sense from the Earth Sovereign, but I will only know for sure if the soul sense of Earth Sovereign sweeps by it.

I hope that did not happen. 

Once the interest of such a powerhouse was piqued, I could say bye-bye to my freedom.
