Grandmaster Katarina declared two hours later after we added the pink diamond inside it. Now, in front of us is a solution that looked like it was made of melted rubies.

  　　"Everything looked perfect; It seemed like we have really able to accomplish it," Jim said excitedly while his eyes were filled with pure joy. It is not just Jim that is happy but also the Grandmaster Salvador; they have accomplished something that very few of their level could accomplish.

  　　They had crafted a recipe that of the Grand Lord level, even for a Grandmaster Katarina, it a great deal, especially when she succeeded at the first attempt.

  　　"Now, we just need to test it for conformation," said Grandmaster Salvador before his expressions became a little awkward. 

  　　The recipe had mellowed the energy of violent ingredients, but one should not forget that it still contains a lot of Grand Lord class resources, especially the refined essence of monster blood and core, which contain an immense amount of powerful energy.

  　　Grandmasters could forget about consuming it, no matter how strong their bodies are; only some High Grandmasters would have a chance to consume it in its purest form, but they would need a strong body and soul to absorb its effect.

  　　"You are right, little sal; we need to test out its effect," said Grandmaster Katarina before craning her neck back. 

  　　"How about it, girls, is one of you willing to test the effect of little something we have created?" asked Grandmaster Katarina.

  　　I was surprised when she asked behind me as I did not notice anyone coming, but when I looked back, I saw two women standing at the end of two halls. Seeing them, I couldn't help but get surprised and even more surprised seeing utter disregard for etiquette by this old woman.

  　　"Grand Commander," 

  　　All three of us called out in unison and bowed as etiquette required; she was not the only one present. Besides her is her elder sister, lady Vivian, whom I hadn't seen in quite long.

  　　I was quite surprised to see them appear without me noticing; with my current power, even High Grandmasters would find it difficult to evade my notice, but these two did, and they did flawlessly; even now, I could see them visually but having a difficulty sensing them.

  　　"Let me, Grandmistress; it had been a while since I tried something this strong," said lady Vivian and appeared beside us before her sound had reached us; behind her, Grand Commander silently followed.

  　　"Since you agreed, then drink it," said Grandmistress Katarina as she took out a single gemlike drop from the pot and put it in the small crystal bottle before giving it to lady Vivian.

  　　"Thank you, Grandmitress," She said and walked a little distance and sat before she opened the cap on the crystal bottle and drank the single drop.

  　　The moment she drank, the powerful aura of that drop of Nine Blood Burning Essence burst out of her, but she seemed unfazed; there was barely any change on her face as she closed her eyes. I made use of this opportunity and sent my sneakiest seed at her.

  　　I would be in big trouble if she found out; she is a very powerful powerhouse. It is said, she is more powerful than her sister. She is at least a High Grandmaster, might even be a quasi Grand Lord, but I could not afford to miss this wonderful opportunity.

  　　I would not take the risk if there weren't a powerful around drop to the cloud to cloud the seed, and most importantly, there is a very low chance she might discover the seed as it entered her.

  　　The nine blood-burning solutions contain rule-bending power, and the seed will meld in it; once it happens, even Grand Lord will not discover it.

  　　Soon, my seed entered inside Lady Vivian, and I received it; I was barely able to control the shock showing on my face. 

  　　The thing I saw was really shocking, but it should shock me, considering she is a student of lord of glass. It also answers some puzzling questions about the mirror that he had given me.

  　　My seed quickly melded itself into the power of the nine blood-burning essences, and the metaphysical scan of lady Vivian appeared in front of me, which would become more detailed with every passing second.

  　　She is a high Grandmaster, alright, and an extremly powerful one at that. There is a very high chance that she might be a quasi-Grand lord. As all quasi- Grand Lords are high Grandmasters who have comprehended the first energy.

  　　I had looked into the bodies of High Grandmasters before and had been fortunate enough to be invited into a breakthrough of one High Grandmaster a few months ago and I have never body and soul as strong as her; it is clear that she practices a hybrid art like me.

  　　It took a couple of seconds for the immense power of nine blood-burning solutions to spread into the body of Lady Vivian before it burned.

  　　"Eeeeh!"

  　　The energy begins burning, and with it, it starts to burn the body and soul; lady Vivian is feeling torturous pain that would make even High Grandmaster scream with their mouth open, but all she did was grit her teeth to bear the pain.

  　　The sweat began to pour out of the body like rain, and within a few seconds, the white blouse and pants she was in were fully drenched.

  　　The nine-blood-burning essence is burning inside her, but it not harming her in any sense; as long as one has a powerful enough body and soul to bear its energy, it would not harm you when it burned. Though one will experience the torturous pain that will make them wanna die than experience this pain.

  　　I could see the changes the burning of essence was bringing, and it was shocking.

  　　If it had been any High Grandmaster, I would not have been shocked, but it is Lady Vivian, who is at the limit of peak High Grandmaster class, and it is still affecting her to such a degree. It is simply miraculous and likely due to the diamond I had added.

  　　I am rapidly collecting the data on everything about Lady Vivian, not only on the effect of the Nine Blood Burning Solution but also on the other things.

  　　She is a treasure trove of data; it would help me a lot, especially in understanding the vast formation that the mirror has.

  　　Time passed, and the nine blood-burning essences continued to burn Lady Vivian, bringing both internal and external changes into her. I could see the people are surprised seeing the changes but would be shocked if they realized the real extent of them.

  　　It was thirty-five minutes before the energy of the nine blood-burning essences began to diminish but took nearly fifteen minutes to completely expend.

  　　I did not bring out my seed and instead destroyed it and let Lady Vivian absorb the rule-bending power. This will help me integrate my seed inside her quickly next time.

  　　It still took Lady Vivian another ten minutes before she opened her eyes, and when she did, her eyes were shining with joy. It is clear that she is happy, and she should be, considering the huge benefits she has received.
