Monster Integration



Another wave of energy came at me and filled my body further.

The waves of energy contain the power that should explode me into pieces, but it is drilling into me forcefully.

The cells and the particle of my soul which could hold merge with this power are surviving, while those which couldn't are cracking apart; it won't be long before they get destroyed.

It is scaring the hell out of me.

It is manageable on a small scale, but happening on a large scale. Nearly a third of my cells and a quarter of my soul particles are suffering damage.

If they get destroyed by this energy, I will die. 

That will happen, seeing wave after wave of energy coming inside every second and soon, even those cells that are bearing the energy will also crack apart as more energy poured into them. 

I may be powerful, but this energy is not something I could deal with.

It is at the level of the Earth Sovereign, while I am Primary-III.

The cloud tar soil and the herbal mixture filtered all its impurities and enhanced its properties.

So much that it would have been a panacea for them; an opportunity that given them a big enough boost to reach the next level, but to me, it is an extreme danger that is destroying my cells and soul particles by forcefully merging with them.

So, to survive; I activated the formation in my core.

Buzz!

The formation I activated had only three things. The berry he had given me and the other two light elemental healing resources of Earth Sovereign grade.

The formation sent its energy, and it does not cool like a gentle river, but like a searing torrent that wants to crush through everything. 

The energy entered inside me and spread through my body and soul, increasing the pain I am feeling even further and while it might be painful. It started to do the job; I expected it to.

Like burning needles, it begins to pierce through my cracked cells and begin stitching them.

What is happening is a lot more complex, but the healing energy is doing its job.

It is keeping the cells from damaging further, while more energy pours into them.

The energy is heartless; it didn't stop, because the cells started cracking. 

It will not stop till I cut it out from the source, which will not happen, considering only four seconds have passed since I entered the pool and I wouldn't get out of it before the storm has passed.

I have to survive for a minute and not only that; I have to be in a condition from which I could heal.

I couldn't let myself injure to the state, from what I couldn't recover from.

For the next three seconds, everything was wonderful, before the thing I had expected happened. 

The cells and soul particles, which were merging with the energy without a problem before, had started cracking. They were reaching their limit, and it hadn't been even ten seconds since it had all started.

The light elemental energy moved and begin covering the cells, but I know it wouldn't be enough.

The healing energy is getting consumed rapidly, while filtered energy coming endlessly. At most, I have seven to eight seconds before it is fully spent; I have to find a solution to my problem before that.

It is easier said than done, considering the level of energy I am dealing with.

In my core, thousands of resources appeared in front of my clones; many of these resources are moving into different formations.

These resources are all Earth Sovereign; some of these, even from the section, which I was not going to touch before making the next big breakthrough, but now I am forced to use them.

Thankfully, the resources are not something I lack. Even if it is an Earth Sovereign grade.

I have killed many Grimms and many of them have these resources. Most importantly, it is Nero's kill that contributed the most; 86% of these resources have come from his kill.

The rest fourteen is something I have got from the Grimms and found through my efforts.

The resources moved around my clones before falling into formation and twenty seconds passed, nearly seven seconds outside.

The healing energy was nearly spent.

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

Finally, the formations are activated.

There are more than twenty formations in my core, and more are forming, but only five activated and sent their energies inside. Of the five, four were healing type, while the fifth one was a disrupting type.

I had created it to whittle away the waves of energy.

Unfortunately, that failed spectacularly; the energies of the fifth formation, swept in waves of honey-thick energy. It didn't destroy it; just swallowed it.

As if it is nothing.

Thankfully, the healing energies have a much better job; they are stopping my cells and soul particles from getting destroyed, but it is not enough. 

More and more energy will pour in, and the time will come when it all will just explode. When that happens, I will be in a puddle of good. Even if my body somehow survived, my soul would be messed up.

I am fortunate that I have a forbidden power into cells and soul particles. 

The herbal sludge I added between clay layers also had a heavy amount of forbidden energy mixed in it, which is also merging with my cells. It is one reason that I am still standing, but as I had said, it is not enough.

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

Seven formations activated one after another and the seven energies came inside me.

They have begun to wrap around my cells and soul particles, becoming a support that is helping them carry these waves of energy that are pouring into them.

If I cannot heal them, I will need to support them externally. I could not let them puncture and explode; while doing that, I will create another problem, but I will deal with it later after I finished with energy.

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

Six more formations were activated, two for healing, and four for support. 

Forty-second had passed since the storm started and now every second has become a struggle to me.

I have activated twenty-one formations in total, and my body and soul had reached the breaking point. Every cell and soul particle of mine had cracked and held so much energy that even a cell of Peak Sovereign wouldn't be able to.

It is not because they are not strong enough, but also because the cells and soul particles haven't been built that way.

They wouldn't be able to do it despite all the healing energy and supporting formations.

The only reason, I am able to do it, is because of the forbidden power, that changed cells and soul particles, but the advantage provided by that had reached the breaking point.

Buzz Buzz!

I activated another two formations, and these will be the last ones; my body couldn't bear it anymore and if the energy kept coming; then the only thing that will happen to me is turning into a puddle.

Fifty-second passed and my condition has become extreme; I won't be able to live even five seconds now and simply wait for death.

I have done everything I could from using forbidden power to the best resources I have; I couldn't do anything else.

Hun!

Two more seconds passed, and I waited for my body to collapse, when suddenly. The thick yellowish-violet storm enveloping the space above the water begins to recede. 

I was waiting for this moment and didn't wait, even for it to fully recede; the moment it moved away from the water; I removed the physical lock and rose with it.

I don't know if the storm had left any residual energies and what will happen if they touch me. But I know for sure, that If I didn't get out of this water immediately, I am going to die.

So, I will take my chances, and I did. 

I stood up before jumping out of the pool.

Bang!

The moment a bang rang out; the layer of clay covering me exploded away from my body before all its pieces disappeared into my core.

They are precious, but I will care about that later. I have to care about myself. I am very much in danger.

I am still standing, but very much in danger.

My cells and soul particles are holding an immense energy that I need to get rid of and I have an idea.

It will most likely kill me, but it is the only option, I have to get rid of this dangerous energy in my body.
