3208 Prison
I let out a long breath as I finished practicing the strengthening method, before vaporizing the sweat dripping from my body.
Even after practicing for months, the strengthening method is as painful as ever.
Still, I am making good progress in it, and it would have been more amazing if I had made such progress in my treatments too, but I am not practicing them. Though, it would change from today.
I decided to take a risk and resume the treatments.
From what I have observed in the past week. Only Primary-III guards patrol every hour and Sovereigns three times a day.
Earth Sovereign is present in the compound as their soul sense enveloped the prison like a sphere, but they never move their soul sense inside.

It is more efficient and less suspecting.
I have broken it, that if I want to, I could easily break through my cell and thousands of others, but what use of that?
An Earth Sovereign is guarding this freaking prison for some reason. It would take them less than a minute to put us back into the cells.
It is absolute power. In front of it, my tricks are nothing.
It is better that I hide my tricks and wait for the right chance. I am sure it will come; I need to be ready to exploit it.
I lay down and rested for a few minutes before I stopped my breath and closed my eyes. A moment later, I appeared at my core and went to the library.
I worked with my two clones on inheritance for seven hours, before coming out and waving my hand. Immediately, a tub appeared in the air; I flew toward it before submerging in its liquid.
Since I had manipulated the formation; I might as well make full use of it.
I will use the seven aurora waves, instead of the second choice. Especially after I had spent a week without treatment.
Though the week was not spent uselessly; I had worked tirelessly and was able to make a major improvement in the seven aurora waves and a few other treatments.
Ahhhhh
The efficacy of the formation had increased, but so is the pain. That I need to scream till my throat is dry as a desert.
Thankfully, no one can listen to them, including the snooping man in the cell next to me.
Every second more and more energy drilled into me, making the process painful with every second. It is unbearable but bore it with gritted teeth.
Now, it had become even more important that I practice hard as I could. So, I could use the chance, when it appears in the future. Most importantly, I should never fall into such conditions again.
As long as I am strong enough, such things would never happen to me.
Time passed painfully, till finally, the pain receded a couple of minutes later. It had completely disappeared.
Buzz!
I remained in the pool for a couple of seconds, before flying out of it and falling on the stone bed, where another formation waiting for me. As I appeared on the formation, it activated.
While the formation works its magic on me. I spread my soul sense and not like a wave, but like thin invisible strings. It is more efficient; through it, I could cover all the cells while using less than half of the soul energy.
I entered my core with thousands of projections in front of me.
I know I am invading their privacy, but it is important. I need to find everything I could; I had already been able to find a couple of interesting things in a week and if I continue looking, I will find more.
I am not just looking into the cells of the prisoner, but also in places where Primary-III and Sovereign guards are.
Their conversation is what gives me the most information.
In this week of snooping, I have found that Primary III has no idea what is happening. They are confused about why their families capturing the people sneakily.
It would not be a big thing. If they picked up a few thousand adventurers and mercenaries. Nobody would question them, but they are doing it sneakily.
It is the same question in the mind of most Sovereigns. Most, not all; there are some who seemed to know what is happening or at least have an idea of what is happening, but they are not discussing.
I have heard a few of their words as they talked in codes and till now, I have yet to make a sense of it.
Though, I am sure, if I listened enough. I will be able to find something that would be useful to me.
I handed control to snooping to my clone and went to the library and studied the ancient runes. I had studied them for six hours, before I stopped, and let go of the soul sense.
It is not easy to control the soul sense in all these sales; doing that for three hours straight gives me a headache.
I will take three hour of break before starting again.
Half an hour later, I opened my eyes and changed the formation before closing it again.
Even though I am in captivity; I am not going to waste any time. I will use every second to it prepare for the chance that my enemies are going to give me. So, when the time comes, I will give back to them, what they have given me.
The formation activated and I once again entered my core. This time, working on the essence storage.
I have made huge progress in it. I am nearly ready with the first workable version. It could be said to be an upgrade of essence roses or a completely different thing.
I do not care, as long as it worked as I intended it to work.
