Chapter 2510 Mighty Mammoth I
Finally, the pink-blue substance has covered the whole Inheritance of Leonard; there is not a single ruin that hadn"t been covered by it.
Now, it is the most important part, destroying the Inheritance and replacing it with the new Inheritance right after.
Many things could go wrong during the process, from the explosion of runes to the shatter of veins and heart, which would cripple one immediately.
I have made all the preparations, so something might like that not happen, but even with all the preparations, I do not have complete confidence.
"Leonard, I am pulling the trigger," I said, giving him the one final chance; after this, there is no going back.
"Do it, Grandmaster," He said with his eyes full of conviction. Hearing that, I did not hold back anymore and began the deed.
KHUTCH Khutch Khutch
The pink-blue substance pressured the runes with great pressure, not only on the runes but also on the Inheritance point. The pressure was great, so great Inheritance point, and all the runes got crushed in a single moment.
Seeing that, I couldn"t take a sigh of relief as this process needs to be quick as possible. The power contained in the body will be directionless, and it will begin to mess around. If things go bad, then within a few minutes, Leonard will become a puddle of flesh and blood.
Ahhhhh!
A moment after the Inheritance runes are destroyed, Leonard begins to scream. Leonard did not scream easily, but the pressure its directionless power putting on him was making him scream loud.
I could already see the huge power inside its body and soul-making begin to wreak the havoc; I had a minute at most before Leonard suffered unrecoverable damages.
I acted immediately; the moment the runes were destroyed, the pink-blue substance began to absorb all their energy rapidly. The speed of absorption is very high, but despite that, it takes a long, especially at the Inheritance point.
These runes contain ma.s.sive energy, most of which they collected after Leonard became my mentee, but these runes were using the energy extremly inefficiently; with the new Inheritance I had created, I want to rectify that problem and hope I succeed.
It took sixteen seconds for the pink-blue substance to absorb the destroyed runes and recede back to a blob in the heart.
"Begin!"
I said, and s.h.i.+ning formation lit up even bright, and inside Leonard, change began to occur.
Thousands of solid runes begin to transform out of the blob; formations after formation appear and connect with each other while Leonard"s body begins the slow collapsing process.
He had fallen down, still screaming, but if one looked at his eyes, they would find they were still sane.
The majority of Grandmasters would not bear what he was feeling; the pain he is feeling due to the collapse of body and soul is unimaginable; even I did not know a thing I would be able to bear such pain.
I could not do anything to elevate this pain; healing energies or pain killers might disturb the process, and I could not have that.
Thirty seconds had pa.s.sed since the old Inheritance was destroyed, and now Leonard had begun bleeding from his orifices; his skin also began to slip and bleed.
Inside him, half of the blob had turned into the runes, and the other had rapidly turned; in fifteen to twenty-second, all the blob would turn into the ruines; Leonard just had to bear it till that.
Each second feels like an hour as I watch his condition of the Leonard. I wish I could make it faster, but I cannot. I have tried everything I could to make it faster and safer and felt I had done a pretty good job, but now, looking at Leonard"s condition, it did not feel that.
Finally, at the fifty-seventh second since the destruction of the old Inheritance, the blue-pink blob had turned into a Pyramid of runes.
The Pyramid may look tiny, but half a million runes have been used.
Half of the job of this stage had been finished; now it is time to finish the other half. It is more dangerous than the other part.
Imprinting the Inheritance on Leonard and hope, his body and soul accept it. I don"t know whether I will succeed, as I have destroyed the old Inheritance and wiped away all its signs, just as bloodline fruit does before merging with the host.
Still, sometimes even the body does not accept the perfect things like the bloodline fruit, so there is a high chance that it might not accept it. Still, I think I would not faint, and the reason for it is the rule-bending power.
Nearly every treatment Leonard got and experiment I have done on him had rule bending power, and the better part of these Inheritance runes is made of the rule-bending power. So, it will act as a bridge; I do hope it does.
Buzz!
The moment the whole blob transformed into the Pyramid of runes, it shone brightly, and thousands and hundreds of runic chains have released from it and began to spread into every part of his body.
It took only nine seconds for the runes to spread through his whole body, making the implantation process finished.
Now, it is time to activate the Inheritance; within a minute, I will know whether the Inheritance will work or not.
BUZZ!
The runes buzzed loudly before lightning up blindingly; they lit up so bright that Leonard"s whole body began to s.h.i.+ne from outside.
I could see the runes merging with Leonard"s body and soul, taking control of the energies.
They are facing the resistance more than I thought, but this Inheritance is having none of it; it crushed through the resistance and began to take control of every part of the body at amazing speed, much faster than I had expected given the resistance.
Before I know it, ten minutes have pa.s.sed, and the Inheritance has finally imprinted itself on Leonard.
"Leonard, activate the Inheritance," I said as he stood up stumblingly.
He nodded and activated the Inheritance as he did, the grey-blue and grey energies swirled around him, and the armor began to form around his body.
The armor is blue-grey in color and looks like it is made of steel and stone and radiates pure might. I looked at his meta-scan; there was no problem with the synchronization of his body and soul with his new Inheritance; I could see how efficiently he would be able to use his power through this Inheritance.
"You did it; you have changed his Inheritance without making him lose a single level. Only the miracle fruits are capable of such fear," Marina said with wonder s.h.i.+ning in her eyes.
Destroying Inheritance is not complicated; there are safe ways, but through these ways, one not only loses their levels but it also affects their talents. People do not take that step unless they have no other choice.
Tap!
I tapped on the ground with my foot, and a single layer formation activated, and essences placed on it released the smoke, which began to move toward Leonard.
There are things I have to do, but before I do that, I have to heal all the injuries on Leonard"s body. If I begin with the injuries present, he will die within a minute.
