Monster Integration

I looked at the pitched black door in the center of the round hall, which looked like, it had been carved out of the smoothest granite.

I did not immediately walk toward the door and instead got closer to the skeletons.

Hun!

Their clothes were withered, but weapons were in great condition, which I immediately took with my strings, and it made the bones turned to dust, which did not surprise me.

It had been hundreds of thousands of years with the time dilution; one needs to be extremely powerful for their bones to survive for that long.

I searched through the bone ash for storage but did not find any. I did not even see the sign of it.

It is clear that whoever killed them likely took their storage, which is quite bad, as I was really hoping to get some powerful above-limit resources.

Aside from the skeleton, there is nothing in the hall, no painting, no artifact. The only thing it has is the black gate.

I appeared in front of it and looked at the letters on top of it, which were carved in a language, I didn't understand. I had copied it to look for it later when I had time and walked toward the door.

There are no runes visible on it, and with rule-bending power, I could not sense the slightest defensive mechanism or formation in it.

Krrrrrr!

Seeing that, I placed both of my hands on the door and pushed; as I did, I found it opening smoothly that I had lessened the force to open the door, and when it did, I walked inside.

Gasp!

As I entered inside, I couldn't help but gasp at what I was seeing in front of me.

In front of me is a huge statue, which is at least four hundred meters tall, carved from some transparent stone.

It is a humanoid being with a regality that seemed to ooze from every part of it; it has four hands, pointed ears, and a human face.

It is very hard to describe its gender, as it saw men and women simultaneously, but one would forget them when one looks at those eyes.

They held no emotions in them, but they were captivating, so much so that I unknowingly continued to stare at them for more than three minutes before I came to out myself.

"Fuck!" I cursed loudly but immediately felt like I had committed some sort of blasphemy and was unconsciously about to bow for forgiveness when I had stopped myself.

"This place," I said slowly while activating all my mental defenses to the fullest before looking around at all this divinity.

This place is filled with divinity; there is so much that I had never sensed before in my life, even a few of the above limited divine crystals that Rhaek had pale compared to the divinity I am feeling here.

It is all coming from the statue; the whole statue is carved from the divine crystal.

It is shocking when one thinks about the sheer amount of divine crystals needed to make the statue.

It is one of the rarest and most precious commodities in the world, and here some rich bastards have carved a whole statue out of it.

The whole thing had flabbergasted me, but excitement took over, and I moved toward the statue.

Hun!

A few hundred meters later, I had to stop myself. The divinity has become so dense that it begins to create a suppressive atmosphere that begins to make me feel breathless.

It had also made taking steps harder due to the sheer density of the divine energy.

To be honest, I have never I would come across such a heavy amount of divine energy that will make even taking a step forward a challenge.

It seemed like it was a wet dream of every powerhouse turned nightmare.

"Father, do you want the statue?" asked Nero from my head. "Yes, try if you can take out a small piece of it and be careful," I said and warned when Nero flew toward the statue, hearing my first word.

He did not seem to have any problem with the divinity like he did not have any problem when he entered dense energy areas that would kill me.

It took him a few seconds to reach the statue, and immediately, his mouth became hug, wanting to swallow the open palm of the statue.

Hun!

His huge mouth covered the palm, and he closed it and swallowed it when suddenly, he got repelled hard and had to turn into mist to absorb the force before constructing into a small wolf cub.

"I am going to try again," he said before I could even open my mouth and tried again and once again repelled before trying again.

"Enough, Nero; there are obviously powerful restrictions there," I said when he was about to try for the fourth time.

His expression turned sad, and he flew toward me, sulking.

"It is fine; sometimes we have to bear the disappointments," I said, and I patted him as I took him in my arms.

Chew Chew

I was patting when Ashlyn chirped haughtily; her target was obviously Nero, who glared at her immediately from my hands.

"Why don't you try then? I am sure you will not have any problem taking a few pieces off it," Nero challenged angrily, but she kept looking at him haughtily until he looked away.

I couldn't help but shook my head seeing that and petted him for about a minute before waving my hand, and a disc size of my hands appeared in front of me.

Buzz!

I activated the dick and waited expectantly, but to my disappointment, it did not work either.

This disk is a special artifact I have found in the Grimm Grand Lords' storage.

It is an artifact of divine energy, but it did seem to work; not a speck of divine energy had entered inside, which surprised me.

I did not think the restrictions would be so powerful that even an artifact of such a grade wouldn't work.

Sigh!

I sighed in disappointment; a precious amount of divine energy was around me, but I couldn't take it.

It is like a famished person seeing the feat but could not taste it, even a single bit.

I shook my head in disappointment and moved my leg to take a step forward when I suddenly stopped.

There is one more thing I have to try, and it took me a few minutes to take it out and till, then I decided to walk.

Seven minutes later, I stopped and waved my hand immediately; a tree came out in a huge flowerpot.

The tree is a little taller than me, filled with thousands of flowers.

Divine Asamaer.

It is a flowering tree that had flowers that looked like lilies, but this is no breed of lily, but a completely different plant whose seeds I have found in the Rhaeks storage and cost me to fortune to grow.

It is the last of the plant I have grown in my core, and I had to for a while before planting it and kind of regretted it doing that.

As to just to take it above the limit, I had to use 50% of the divine crystals I had, which is a huge amount, as I am counting all the divine crystals I have got from Grimm's storages, including Rhaek and Old Snakes.
