3832 The Range

"H..how?" It asked, with its voice filled with shock.

To be honest, I am a little shocked too. I had kind of expected to take a step back and even prepared to blast away, if I am wrong, instead the opposite happened.

I bore its attack, with only a shake.

I am still having a hard time believing; that I managed that and looking at my core, where I am seeing how my armor reacted.

The force breakage and distraction had worked better than I thought. Those little formations of ancient runes, I had added, had helped the formation of common runes effectively break the force and same time, isolated me from it.

I didn't look at how energy-perfect the attack performed. My armor specializes in dealing with energy; there is no need to look at it.

It is not all the inheritance credit. I am also strong; I had been able to fight against the Sky Sovereign before advancement. Might have been able to survive against it for a few minutes to an hour after completing zero level of completion of dance.

"You are weak. I don't know, why I had even hid from you," I replied, with clear mocking.

"Bastard!" it cursed, and I thought it launched an attack. It acted as such, but to my surprise, the bastard turned and started to run away.

"You disappoint me," I said, shaking my head. I am really disappointed; I wanted it to use its full power, which it had yet to do. Instead, it is running away.

Puch!

I appeared in front of it, and Grimm stopped and looked down at the tiny toothpick sword piercing through its chest.

It opened its mouth to say something but wasn't able to open it fully before the energy froze it.

I looked at it for a moment later, before I pulled it into my core.

I would have placed it with it to test my armor, but decided against it, seeing we were in a dangerous place. Where a broken formation could vaporize me in an instant, even with all the power I had gained after the breakthrough.

"What is the method that gave you such power?" asked the girl. I turned to her, with a smile on my face.

"It is rude to ask such a question, little one, but to answer your question, it is a sealing method. I had my power sealed, I just unsealed it," I lied, which embarrassed her, but also disappointed her.

There is no need to tell her that I had just leveled up. I had been projecting myself as a powerhouse, a Sky Sovereign and now I am, or rather have, the power of one.

I appeared beside her and raised my hand.

"Can you not make me unconscious?" she asked. "This place is dangerous and the place I am keeping you needs you to be unconscious," I said and tapped on her head.

She disappeared while I sighed.

If there hadn't been a time dilation, I would have kept in my abode in my core. With it sealed, she would have been able to see what is outside, but I cannot control the time in my core yet.

I pushed away the thoughts of the girls spread out my soul sense and sent the soul waves.

My range has now expanded even further, and my soul sense has become even more sneaky. Now, I don't think Sovereigns could sense it, even when I didn't try it willingly.

I would need to make the conscious effort to make them and those of higher level sense it. I didn't want them to suspect anything about my soul sense.

Suddenly a smile appeared on my face; my longest soul wave had gone out of the field. Which is a great thing, seeing the sheer interference this place causes.

Now, I have data about everything that is between me and the exit, including the powerhouses that are in between. It is not as detailed as the short-range soul sense, but it still gave me the data I needed.

I immediately send more extra long-range soul waves, while I begin to move again.

My target is to get out of this place, but I will start to kill any Grimms, that I found in the way. I think, I am powerful enough to kill those, that had sensed.

Buzz!

I had just taken a few steps when I nearly stopped. The Grimm inside had been harvested and now, it had released the energy.

This time, I didn't resist. I took the essence and I have to say, it is powerful. Every drop of it begins to take my strength to higher and higher.

However, I am more focused on the growth of the seedling of the world tree and the energy it has released.

I had killed many Grimms in this ruin, but not a single one was able to make the seedling of the world tree grow, but the bloodline essence of Sky Sovereign Grimm, had made it grow over ten meters.

Which is a lot for the normal trees, but given how big it's already; it is not that much.

I am not focused on the growth of the tree, but on those things, that will turn into fruits. There is no change in there; the Sky Sovereign, or at least the initial one, isn't enough to make them grow.

I shook my head and focused on the growth of energy.

It is being exclusively fed to old plants. The most important ones, like the stainless lotuses, metal essence trees, spatial trees, and other plants.

I need to take them to Sky Sovereign as soon as possible, but the growth energy from the Hyenaman is far from enough to achieve that.

I am aware of it, and it is why I will be targeting the ones with the bloodline. I had already sensed three of them in here, with two of them being directly on the way.

The third one was a little distance away, but I had already made up my mind to kill it. Let's just, it didn't move away too far to change my mind.
