Monster Integration (Web Novel)
chapter-3578

It is just a strand, not longer than the finger and slightly thicker than hair, but it is bright.

It is a dense red in color, with purple boundaries covering it and the aura it is releasing, made me have difficulty in breathing.

I didn't let it affect the breathing and used more force to maintain the breathing as the method required.

Since the mystic energy materialized. All the space for the mistake had disappeared and now, I will have to do everything as the method stated, a single mistake and it will be the death of me.

This beautiful, strange strand of energy looks mystifying, but it is just as powerful. If I make a mistake; it will collapse, and I don't want that.

You see, this energy isn't dangerous, but it will affect the surrounding energies. It would break the bonds of energies around if it collapsed, and that would create so much energy that forget me, even Sky Sovereign would have a hard time surviving.

It is why, in this method. The mistakes are allowed until only the 24th move, after that, every move takes you closer to death.

Once the mystic worldly energy materialized. There is only death for any mistake and even if everything is done perfectly; there is a chance that this energy might be the practitioner.

Despite that, many people practice it; the benefits of it are too great.

It is a powerful strengthening method; normal ones couldn't compare. This mystic energy didn't just strengthen body and soul, but also helped to strengthen the body between them, which is tremendously useful during the merging.

There is also the cleansing.

It is normal cleansing; it doesn't remove the impurities but also removes every harmful element present in the body and soul.

Which is different from the impurities.

I started to move in the thirty-seventh move, a complex move, where I not only needed to maintain the breathing but also to make my heart beat in rhythm, which is just as difficult as manipulating the soul at a deeper level.

I am doing it all together, and it will become harder with every move.

The strange moves closer to me as I perform the moves of dance and finally, at forty-eight moves.

It entered the center of the formation.

Hun!

Immediately, I felt like, the suppression of the powerful being downed on me.

It is extremely powerful that I nearly stopped the dance before I forcefully controlled my mind and continued moving in suppression that began to take me everything I had to, not fall down on my knees.

It is too powerful, and it has spread to the whole runes, turning them bright red, with purple borders.

At the forty-eighth move, I had only felt the suppression, but at the forty-ninth; I felt the pain. The energy moves inside me and all I can be is not screaming.

The necessity to maintain the breathing and rhythm of my heartbeat had helped me against the pain, as I had channeled it all into them.

Though not uncontrollably. That would be suicide. I could feel how unstable this energy was and if I made the slightest mistake, it would collapse, and I could forget surviving with it inside me.

At fifty-second move, the energy reached deep enough that it had met the essences and began too deep inside them.

Hun!

As it happened, I noticed something immediately. The needles increased the pace of essence by 120%.

The pain increased as more resources entered my body, but the pain of pain dwarfed what the method was given.

The strand may seem small, but it contains immense energy. It kept filling the essences as it entered the deep inside me.

It also started bringing rapid changes into essence as it merged with it.

It had burned them into smoke, keeping the purest form of essence, which is less than 10% of its original size.

Mind you, the essences were already pure; my clone itself had purified them, but this mystic energy had done it even further.

The purified energy had turned into crystal mist and now, this must seep into soul and cells, while the burned essences came out of my body, bringing out impurities and every other harmful thing, that is present in it.

I continued to practice moving after moving, which became harder and harder.

Not only because the moves had become complex, but more energy began to come inside me, and I needed to use more to absorb it.

The purified mist of essences and mystic worldly energy also didn't make things easy, either.

I could understand why, 90% of people who practice this method give it up. It is too dangerous.

I am at the seventy-second move and it has already become too hard for me to perform the moves, but there is no other choice. If I didn't, I would die; I understand clearly how it will turn me shower of blood and gore.

That, too, will be vaporized a moment later.

I continued performing move after moving; no matter how difficult and painful it was, because there was no other choice.

Soon, I finished the hundredth and started on one-hundred and first.

There, the torrent of mystic energy begins to enter my body and is absorbed into the large number of essences that needles are sending into me.

I have never taken such a large number of essences in my body, but now I need to do it. They are the only thing that contains the energy, without them, the energy will directly try to merge with my body and soul.

Which will destroy me.

Hun!

As I begin to perform, one and a hundred and four moves. The runes covering me begin to move, turning into a different formation than before.

That whole formation seeped inside me as I performed one hundredth and fifth move and at one hundred and sixth move. The needles sent a massive number of energies into me, and the runes accepted it.

Buzz!

At one-hundredth and seventh, their hunger satiated, and I began to perform the one-hundredth and eighth move, and the formation activated.

As it did, something amazing and horrifying started to happen.

The formation turned to a crystalline red-film with purple boundaries. At the same time, already the tremendous load on me, increased three-fold, that I nearly stopped performing.

It took colossal willpower to perform through this pressure, but I did, while this concentrated but thin crystalline field covered every part of me.

It is the most important step; the mist absorbed my body, but it isn't stable. This film covering me will stabilize everything perfectly.

My methods are great, especially with things I got from the cultist, but it was not without flaws and now this method has fixed those flaws.

So, despite the colossal suppression that felt like crushing me to a pulp. I performed the last move as perfectly as possible. The mistake isn't allowed when I am so close to completion.

The seconds passed, and I continued, while the red-film with purple borders sealed everything perfectly, before disappearing into my body and soul at the last stance I had performed.

Thud!

I let go of everything and a moment later, I fell down, but I barely felt it as the sweet embrace of sleep had already taken me halfway into its embrace.
