Chapter 2495 Racing For Lotuses

It had been a minute since the battle had begun, and it had been intense; Sarah was not holding anything back as she fought against the two-peak Tyrant.

I have to say that despite being a whole level lower than them, she has a clear advantage over them and has begun injuring them already. If she continues to fight in such a way, it won’t take even five minutes for a battle to finish.

’Finally!’

I said in my mind as the silver and green runes have finally finished harvesting the bloodline of the Black Horned Apeman.

Buzz!

A second later, the runes buzzed, and the pure crystalline strengthening energy flooded into me from my runes. It was so pure that I had barely able to stop myself from making a moaning noise as it began to merge inside me.

As the strengthening energy begins to merge, my strength begins to rise rapidly; at the same time, the resources also begin to mature rapidly as they consume the growth energy from the mysterious tree.

The same phenomenon has appeared around the essence metal tree; the speed of its absorption of the dried tree’s metal energy essence floating above it had also increased. 

It had happened last time, too, when it began to consume the growth energies. 

The absorption of metal energy essence from the half tree above has rapidly begun to increse the level of the metal essence tree, which inwardly begins to benefit the fruits hanging by it, as they also matured rapidly.

Hun!

Suddenly, my eyes sharpened, and a light smile appeared on my face. “Since you are already, there is no need to leave,” I said, and light in the eyes of the Master class Grimm Monsters died, and its body disappeared.

I am not tired; I had just waited to see if the assumption was right, and it was right. 

That Master class Grimm Monsters was a rune Grandmaster, and it had an escape talisman. Whether it would have worked in this restricted space, I don’t know; I had only waited this long to confirm my hunch and also wrap my strings around them.

”Let’s stop it; we have wasted enough time,” I said and waved my hand; the Grimms stopped what they were doing and disappeared.

The two-peak Grandmaster that Sarah was fighting had also disappeared. Though, I am polite enough to leave behind the storage and the artifacts of the two Grimm Monsters 

The next second, Sarah and I appeared at the same time and appeared beside the corrupted pool. There are some precious things here, but nothing came close to the five remaining stainless blood soul lotuses inside the corrupted pool.

Sarah also wants these lotuses, but she was a sword piercing the skeleton even more. The sword had to begin to shine even more brightly as she appeared beside the pool.

Sarah closed her eyes as she appeared beside the pool while I focused on the remaining five lotuses in the pool.

The Grimms have broken the restrictions of the corrupted pool, but the corrupted pool itself is a challenge. To harvest the lotuses inside the pool, all the Grimms used a collective method and are even then infected by the corruption that latches on you with the slightest touch.

Still, I have confidence I could harvest these lotuses and would be able to do it before Sarah does. I couldn’t help but wonder how angry she would be when I harvested all stainless blood soul lotus, and she couldn’t get a single one.

These stainless loti, after all extremly, are extremly precious that a single one would create a huge ripple among the Grandmasters and Grandlord, and there are seven of them, all of which I planned to get.

Hun!

I just thought that when suddenly, the sword shone like a bulb and released a light which created a bridge across the corrupted pool.

Before I could say anything, Sarah jumped onto the pool with a huge smile on her face and moved across it speedily, and in a second, she stopped beside the stainless blood soul lotus and harvested it expertly.

She barely took twelve seconds to harvest the lotus.

I had thought after harvesting it, she would walk across the sword as there is no other lotus on the light bridge way, but to my shock, a bright light split and moved toward the stainless blood soul lotus on her right.

’Fuck, I could not let her hot these loti,’ I cursed and made a move; earlier, I wanted to be careful but now, seeing this bitch manipulating the light from the sword; I could not take the risk otherwise before I know it, the remaining four loti would be hers.

A dense holy light blazed from my body, surprising even Sarah, who was moving toward the lotus, and four pinky think ropes moved toward the four loti over the pool.

The corruption attacked the moment my ropes went over it; it crushed the holy energy before beginning to seep inside my ropes. My ropes resisted, but still, the corruption began to seep inside them and came toward me before infiltrating my body.

Ahhhhh!

I screamed through the greeted teeth as powerful corruption hit me, but I did not let it affect my goal.

My four ropes and Sarah reached the lotuses at the same time; three of my ropes began to harvest the lotuses, but the fourth one remained static as Sarah began to harvest her second stainless blood soul lotus.

The fourth rope is a warning to Sarah; if she dared to do anything to impede my harvest, the rope will act. 

As for her acting after she finished harvesting the lotus; well it would not happen. My ropes are very fast, they would only be half of the time required by Sarah to harvest these lotuses.

It took me six seconds to harvest the lotuses before the ropes begin to bring them toward me. I thought Sarah might try for them and was ready to defend my precious loot but she did not and I got the lotuses safely in perfect condition.
