I flew out of the hole into the afternoon sky, with a big smile on my face.
For one time, I didn't think I would be getting out of here, but I did with the mixture of effort and luck.
Now, I want nothing more than to get out of this ruin. I have got everything I have wanted and like to return to the organization. I wouldn't leave it, till I made a breakthrough into the Peak of Sovereign Stage.
It is afternoon, and one part has wanted me to set up an abode and begin dealing with the things in my body.
I am not at my peak; I have taken a far more life-force, than had been taken for me. Life force, that was higher than mine and that brought some consequences; I would need to deal with them.
I pushed that urge down for a few hours; I needed to use the daylight to cover as much distance as possible.
I am not the only one who thinks that nearly every person who went out and moved toward the exit and I followed them.
As I moved, I looked at the scorched around. It is still crystalized to meters deep; such land would be barren for years in the outside world, but there the greenery had also started appearing less than a week after the explosion.
If I am wrong, then within a year, the whole place would turn green and a few years after that, the verdant forest would return as if it had never disappeared.
An hour passed, and there were hundreds of Earth Sovereigns in my soul wave range, when I started to sense the Sky Sovereigns.
'It seemed like, they are finished with the Sky Sovereigns,' I thought, sensing the Sky Sovereigns who were moving in the same direction as us.
This is good because with their presence, they will kill and scare away the monsters that will help me fly and others fly longer. Flying is much faster than running on the ground and I want to keep flying as much as possible.
I am barely sensing any monster, which isn't surprising.
The explosion had scared away many of them and it would take them some time before they return. Which is the reason why, I am flying. If there had been a Sky Sovereign monster moving around, I wouldn't have dared to do that.
Especially in my condition.
Another hour passed, and I noticed the number of the Earth Sovereigns had increased in the area surrounding me. It seemed like we were flying in a loose-large group, with a few Sky Sovereigns among us.
It didn't usually happen; people like to stay separate in places like this.
It gives them freedom to explore and if they find anything, they keep it instead of fighting with others for it, but after the experience with the cultist, no one wants to be alone.
I would have moved away; such an enormous group is a huge invitation sign to the monsters, but there are also Sky Sovereigns in here and a few seemed quite powerful.
I know, they are powerful. I had inserted my seeds in a few of them.
Soon, there was an hour until the evening, and I began to sense the monsters, but not a single one had dared to come at us. They are watching and some are following us, but they didn't attack.
Still, I remained careful of them; they might be dumb monsters, but they were powerful enough to kill me in a single attack.
That is more than enough for me to take them seriously.
The hour passed, and the people began to land and set up abode. They remained far from each other to have privacy, but not far enough, that help couldn't come quickly, if any danger appeared.
It would have been better if they were closer. In two hours, the energy will become dense enough that most Earth Sovereigns will be contained to their abodes.
I wanted to move further, but that would arouse suspicion; there are over a thousand soul senses; it would be impossible to sneak away without them discovering.
So, I landed and brought out my abode. It is in convectional form and looks like many average abodes that cover the surrounding ground. Even Sky Sovereigns wouldn't find anything special about it, even if they looked closely.
Click!
I opened the door and entered inside, but instead of appearing on the walkway, through the lake, where I usually appear, I appeared in the practice room.
Immediately, my clothes vanished, and a tub appeared in front of me.
It is filled with crystalline turquoise water, from which steam could be seen coming and densely covered in the runes.
A few of those small formations are in the ancient runes.
It is my first time using those runes in the medical formation.
I didn't plan to do that until I gained more expertise over them, but circumstances demanded that I do it. I have no other choice, given the formation needed to be powerful and efficient, and the ancient runes are good with that.
I sealed my power and entered into the steaming solution.
It is hot enough to melt the metal, but my body is strong enough to bear the pain. However, that doesn't mean it is not painful.
It is that I wanted to get out of it immediately, but I bore it and laid in it as completely submerged in it.
I need to be completely submerged in it.
Buzz!
Soon, the formation began covering me, and within seconds; it covered every inch of me, before activating.
As it did, I breathed again. I will need to stay in the formation for hours and I couldn't hold my breath for that long; breathing would be necessary.
I barely started breathing when I needed to grind my teeth as the formation started working.
I have absorbed a massive amount of life force and over 99% of it isn't mine. It belongs to thousands of people with different constitutions, inheritance, and arts, which all affect the life-
force.
While the tree had purified it; it had only removed the harmful elements and not all of them.
Seeing the fruits weren't made for the people, they are for the god. We shouldn't have gotten our life-force back, but we did, and while it is purified enough to not be dangerous; it would take months, if not years, to successfully fuse with.
I do not have months to waste and thus devised a method to deal with it quickly.
I could see how the energy and runes helping me fuse more life force into me. It was quite painful, but I needed to do it.
If it works as I had expected, then within a month, I will be successfully making that life-force mine.
I hope, others also doing the same. I have given them the methods to deal with this. If they used those, then most of them would be able to deal with the side effects in less than a month.
Unlike me, most of them only accepted the amount of life-force that was taken from them. A few had taken more than that.
