Grey knew he would only see the answer to the question when he tried it out.

He had studied the first flower and had gotten a rough grasp of stabilizing the energy for some time. As long as he wanted, he could solve the problem for now. They wouldn't have to stay here long to stabilize it. According to the old man, all they needed to do was take care of the flowers.

Grey calmed his mind and started to work on the flower, he infused more of the light element, not daring to add anything to the fire element. He didn't necessarily need to infuse essence for each element since some had more, all he needed was to balance it with the others.

The flower shook for a second but was quickly able to keep the essence in the flower steady, making it almost balanced. He couldn't achieve a perfect balance for now, but there was no issue with getting something close to it.

After some seconds, the flower lit up. Grey sensed strange energy from it and grabbed it without even thinking.

The energy burrowed into his body, and he felt a great sensation, it was like all his power was being merged.

He raised his brow and looked at the flowers strangely, "They can help stabilize the power in your body."

Alice studied Grey's condition and nodded, this energy was a strange yet beneficial to them. With it, they can get better control over their strength.

When the sensation died down, Grey created an orb made from essence, he wanted to see the difference now that he had this energy.

His eyes opened wide, and he laughed delightfully, "It can help with this. Wouldn't this make the level simple?"

Alice tried as well after Grey's successful attempt. She had a better grasp of it than Grey, so her control was by no means lower than his, instead, it was higher.

When Alice sent a stream of energy inside the flower, there was no fluctuation, and before long, the same scene that appeared when Grey stabilized the first flower happened.

Alice also merged with the energy, this was a good treasure, so she would naturally not want to lose the opportunity.

Alice was ecstatic when she absorbed the energy.

"Void, stop sleeping and learn this, it will help you stabilize your power." Grey called out to Void.

Void opened his eyes and looked at Grey oddly, "My power is balanced."

After saying that, an orb appeared in front of him.

Grey's mouth twitched when he saw this. At first, he thought Void was only saying it to escape the stress of learning this, but he didn't speak any further after seeing the orb Void conjured. Void's energy was more balanced compared to theirs. Even Alice was lacking when it came to Void's control.

'What the hell is this cat?' He complained.

How could Void's control be so high? It was shocking. Void rarely cultivated and only slept.

Since when has sleeping been able to make people so strong?

Void couldn't be bothered with them, he closed his eyes and continued sleeping.

The bunny leader, sensing Grey's gaze, also created a ball in front of him and tossed it at Grey.

Grey caught it, and his expression turned sour.

These two Magical Beasts were far superior to them. From the looks of it, they should have at least ninety-eight or ninety-nine percent control over their strength.

Grey might be powerful, but he didn't dare to say he had more than seventy-five percent control over his strength.

He didn't bother with the duo anymore and continued accessing the next flower.

Just as he was about to sense it, the old man's projection appeared again.

"Little friend, since you've balanced the flower, you have passed this stage." The old man said with a soft smile.

"Oh, are we not allowed to continue?" Grey asked suspiciously.

"You can, but since you've already balanced the energy in one flower, you can leave this place and go to the next one." The old man explained.

"Will these things disappear forever if we balance all of them?" Grey asked another question.

The old man smiled, he could tell that Grey was attracted to the energy he absorbed, so he probably wanted to absorb more.

"They will reappear once another person enters this stage." The old man replied with a chuckle.

"Oh, then I would like to continue, senior." Grey bowed respectfully.

"Alright. But be warned, it will only continue to get harder with each flower you balance." The old man said and his projection disappeared.

As the projection disappeared, a spatial tunnel appeared on the side. Apparently, the old man didn't bother with Void and the bunny leader, this meant that they could leave without doing anything.

Grey looked at the flowers and turned to Alice, "Would you like to try?"

Alice thought for a while before nodding. The energy was a treasure, she wanted to absorb more of it if possible.

Grey nodded and went to the side. He sat down cross-legged and entered a cultivation state.

Alice knew he was probably preparing for something, so she went ahead with her business.

.

Two hours later, Alice gave up with a helpless expression. She only managed to balance four more flowers. The difficulty was more than ten times harder than when she started.

"I can't continue."

Grey opened his eyes when he heard this.

"Alright, it's time for me to try." He muttered and walked over to the garden.

He didn't start to balance them instantly. First of all, he wanted to see how many flowers were left, and if could do more than Alice.

He started to sense them, and after some time, he knew that he would be able to balance at most five more.

'If I follow the conventional path, then I won't be able to go far.' He thought to himself.

Just like Alice, he sensed that the difficulty was stronger than the first time he balanced it.
