The energy moved through the runes and finally reached the platform.
A small smile appeared on my face seeing that.
It is an internal smile since I couldn't naturally smile as these formations had not only sealed my strength but had also sealed my body.
I didn't immediately move the forbidden power toward the core.
No, instead I studied the data, I had collected as the forbidden power moved.
I have to be careful, and I have time. I have to finish before they finish with the resources-swallowing stage. Given the speed, it should take at least two hours.
A few minutes later, I had finished with the study and carefully moved the energy forward.
It would have been much easier. If I could use my strings, but that is the last thing, I should be doing. The energy is a little difficult, but I could manage.
I cautiously moved the energy and finally reached the core. There, I stopped once more.
I now have to take the energy inside the core, and here, I do not need to have finesse. I only need it to push the forbidden power inside it and hope, it will work as the books have said. The source of thɪs content is novel✦fire.net
I took a fake deep breath and pushed the energy into the core with my heart beating wildly.
Forbidden power went inside the core without the slightest resistance, as the books had said it would happen. As long as the forbidden energy is the same, the energy will enter the core.
'God!' I gasped internally.
It is one of the most complex things I have ever seen. The control formation of it is far more complex than that of the Orex Cube.
It is why, I had said, I would need weeks and months to just understand it. Much longer to find its weakness on my own.
I am not on my own. I have the knowledge of the library.
To achieve my goals, all I need to do is follow the steps. They are complex, and the slightest mistake will make the chances of my survival disappear, but it is the only chance I have.
I didn't begin immediately. Instead, I looked at the whole formation and it was magnificent.
Soon, I focused on the part I had to tinker with. It is huge and made of thousands of ancient runes. That forms a complex, powerful formation.
I looked at it for a few minutes before a smile appeared on my face.
The formation is the same as the books and behaving the same way. This means, the way in the book is right. If I manage to do this, there is a big chance, that I will survive.
'Let's begin,' I thought and moved the energy toward the formation.
My job is simple but complex. I need to shift around a few runes. A few runes mean a few thousand.
I reached the first rune and moved the forbidden energy around it. Covering it fully, before moving it away carefully, while forming the same rune made of forbidden power.
My heartbeat beat wildly as I expected the formation to react, but it didn't.
Seeing that, I moved to remove another rune, and this time, to formation didn't react. I removed another rune and then another.
Slowly, I got faster and smoother.
I removed the runes and replaced them with their copies made of the forbidden power.
Everything going smoothly till now, but I am, and my clone is watching for every movement. Though, we won't be able to react, if anything happens.
The platform is too powerful and seeing it forged with the forbidden power; I couldn't use my most effective tool to solve things here.
So, I am praying every moment that nothing goes wrong. It is the only chance I have, and I have to succeed in it.
Soon, I took out over a hundred runes, but there are more, and I am taking them out with branching the forbidden power. It makes things easier.
I wouldn't have taken this risk. If not needed to; I would need to control thousands of branches same time when the time comes.
The runes reached two hundred, three hundred, five hundred, and finally a thousand.
I didn't stop and continued removing runes one after another, till I removed the last group of them, before stopping.
I looked at eighteen hundred and seventy-four runes. These are the ones I had removed.
Now, I have to place them in their new places. That will form a different formation than it was before. It is the one, that will help me survive.
I rested for a minute before I began the most difficult task.
I started branching out the stream of forbidden power. I need to branch it into the eighteen hundred and seventy-four sub-branches.
I need to put all the runes in their new places at the same time. If I mess up even a fraction second, it will all collapse.
It's not a big thing with my own forbidden power. Its quite easy actually, I could do it in my sleep, but with this forbidden power, it's quite difficult.
I didn't think about it too much and moved the branches toward the runes.
Soon, the branches begin to wrap the runes around them and within seconds, all the runes have been wrapped in the branches.
With that, I moved them. Using all my focus.
Soon, the runes stopped as they reached near their position. I adjusted their position with the help of my clones. I need them in a place, where I want without the slightest discrepancy.
It took a few minutes before I was able to do that.
Now the most important thing. I didn't think about it and did it. I pushed the runes to their new place.
All the runes moved to their new place at the same time. Destroying the runes made of forbidden power and taking their places.
It took a second for all of it to happen.
All the runes took their new places, while I watched the formation with the bated breath. Praying with my all that it would not react.
