"It seems I have some time to spare, I have been diving from one project into another so, it would be appropriate to enjoy myself for a brief period!" Leylin's eyes had a different look to them.
Leylin has been previously highly guarded against any mishaps which might occur, although he had enough strength to roam freely but knowing the sky above he couldn't really sit back and wait. He had taken the risk to sending Freya to the Purgatory World, dancing on the edge of a blade with no extra time to do something as mundane as enjoying the scenery.
Now, however, after completely ridding himself of these things he had a rare moment of peace and although he would need to indulge in more experiments he can take his time. His body of laws, near rank 7, would last him over 100,000 years.
With this much more time, he finally had time to breathe, released from his tight schedule. This was why he had spent so much effort on dealing with some issues in the clan and monitor the bilateral trade.
He had previously been someone who would not have time take care of himself, so why would he bother with others? Now, with a lot more time and freedom, Leylin finally had the chance to consider the development of Ouroboros Clan, the Farlier Family and so on.
"Taking care of this land and its profits should be able to keep the Warlocks of the Ouroboros Clan living well for thousands of years if managed well… and there is also central continent…" Leylin stroked his chin. Leylin has been assigned to manage and control the whole surface world which means it's his domain now distributed to the reign of his prowess and even if he won't be bothered to care about the ants in Central continent it doesn't mean other won't either.
Freya has reached Rank 6 and this news is not a secret to upper echelon to the Ouroboros Clan. They have decided to expand the clan branch in the central continent as well, obviously they asked for Leylin consent and Leylin let them do as they please.
At his current level, Leylin isn't bothered about expanding his reach or formally conquering the whole Magus World under his empire but those under him are more than thrilled to achieve this scenario flourishing his name through in and throughout. The opponents and people who are in the way as obstacles can only take the situation with a pinch of salt.
There is both Lita and Lancy who are Rank 5 Warlock, the strongest under Freya along with Belinda, Aegnis and many other Warlocks. Their combined strength is extremely powerful and imposing.
Leylin after coming back with origin source of Gaint Kemoyin Serpents have lifted the shackles for a few of them but despite that the amount of energy, resources, time, talent, and luck needed to ascend is extremely difficult for many to acquire. Hence, this made them turn their attention to the huge amount of resources of the big organization in Magus World, this is their key to gain great boost of strength in smallest amount of time so, they want to seize this opportunity to rightfully plunder for themselves.
Leylin didn't object them either since he was planning to use around a few years to take care of matters in the the whole surface of the Magus World. Besides getting his own people to succeed in life, he wanted to build up his own power.
Whatever it was, based on the oral agreement with Ignox, he was going to have to take care of this land anyway. The subterranean existences would pay no heed to his actions.
In their eyes, the surface of the Magus World is not only incredibly small, but also produces few resources. It possesses no resources beneficial for those existences of laws. Amongst the Magi, there are only a few rank 6s, and it's a remote and desolate place. They're not losing out by tossing it to me. After all, Ignox was tasked with the first to fourth levels underground, and each level is comparable to the surface world.
Of course, the reason Ignox had done so was because Leylin had yet to properly advance, and he wanted to ease his work.
That's better for him anyway. He definitely go to the depths of the core, but not yet. Furthermore, Leylin can do a lot with the surface world when it's completely under his control.
...
Eternal Bloodline City, Deep underground, in a laboratory with an unknown location.
"Begin test number 1894!" Leylin's voice sounded, and the A.I. Chip's robotic prompt showed.
[Beep! Beginning experiment. Recording data.]
From behind a huge glass wall, Leylin was now watching the ten bodies he had nurtured. All had the unique characteristics of the subterranean race, and what was more shocking was their distorted faces, which made them look like they were in extreme pain.
Electric current constantly surged through them under Leylin's orders, and on the back of the guinea pigs were numerous transparent tubes that wiggled about, pouring a myriad of unknown fluids in different colours into them.
"Ugh…" "Keke…" The experimental bodies displayed different behaviour. Their flesh was twitching as if tiny rats were burrowing under their skin, and meaty tumours kept rolling and turning on their bodies. They looked disgusting and terrifying.
What attracted the most attention was their faces, where it became more disgusting but similarly become even more dazzling, and their expressions grew even more complex.
[Targets are operating well. No signs of rejection] the A.I. Chip loyally intoned, [Initiating attempt to remotely control targets.] Strands of translucent threads drooped down, attached to the phantom figure of an octopus like tentacular animal at the very end.
The translucent threads first spread over the face of an experimental body, the many legs probing its face and causing it to writhe in intense pain before it moved on to the next.
"Gulu!" "Gulu!" After the translucent threads connected with the other experimental bodies one by one, the bodies suddenly began to twitch vigorously.
[Beginning soul resonance. Experimental body number 2, 7 and 9 are convulsing. Soul waves are fluctuating violently.]
"Adjust the ratio of the sixth potion, activate the R-164 array setting, and the pour life strengthening essence such that they're ten units fewer than before," Leylin looked grave.
[Initiating adjustment. Target's waves are now trending towards stability.]
"....." Watching the interior of the lab that had become quiet, a look of anticipation appeared in his eyes.
However, his expression soon changed.
Along with yells and an intense explosion, the multiple experimental bodies self-detonated, sending blood and filth spraying onto the glass walls.
[Targets have died. Souls have been extinguished. Experiment failed.] The cold voice caused Leylin to sigh.
"It seems that the bodies are not adjusting with Terion Squid and has bulit up an immunity for the life essence potion." After his experiment failed, Leylin readjusted his mood and began to record the results of his experiments.
[Beep! Database on soul splitting methods completely modified. Renamed as Truesoul Splitting Technique.]
Leylin heard the A.I. Chip's response and touched his chin. He has gained this soul splitting techniques from Melinda, the Blazing Flame Monarch and studied it very vigorously. This time, with an in-depth discussion to fill up the gaps, he had made much progress.
This technique was extremely important for Leylin, to the point that it would affect with how he would grow in the future.
Having taken care of the issue of the incomplete technique, Leylin was in a great mood and formulated various laboratory tests to validate his theories and hypothesis.
The procedures to splitting the truesoul have been completely deduced. It has a very high success rate, so next is how to control the other half of the truesoul. Leylin touched his chin, sinking into deep thought.
While the soul splitting technique that Melinda had provided was very feasible, there was also a huge issue— the inability to control the clone's truesoul! Even the Blazing Flame Monarch herself had ruined herself with this, and was later destroyed by Melinda, who was later formed and brought a disaster like Leylin on her way.
Leylin had no wish to be met with a situation like a soul betraying him, and hence had to nip this issue in the bud.
"I guess I would need to go into more depth, Let's deal with this for now.. "
The air vibrated, and Leylin suddenly opened his eyes and looked at his palm.
In his hand was a piece of wriggling meat. It was like a placenta, its life force hidden.
"Its been showing some signs of regaining a bit of essence through the years. This is the root of all Purgatory, an extraordinary object created by a world. It has the blood of every being born in Purgatory, and it could be referred to as the placenta of Purgatory itself!"
This extraordinary object was created by the will of the Purgatory world, and it was what the creation of original energy depended on.
Leylin obtained it with a considerable risk as well as calculations for his own research.
"The power of reproduction and the power of creation are similar in too many ways. The promotion of profession changing in the realm was, in actual fact, constantly adding on to my path of creation through primordial chaos."
Originally, he was still slightly unstable and wasn't able to reveal the full potential of his powers.
However, now there were no obstacles at all.
"With the placenta of Purgatory despite being just a small fraction, I can start trying to refine and harness original power. Of course… there's still a missing entry requirement—the state of a mastering appropriate laws to cultivate them!"
In order to refine and harness original energy, the cultivation and comprehension of appropriate laws are required. It meant to a certain degree to reach the peak state of ordinary law beings finding a path to refine a law path which was the most basic requirement. This meant despite his law of primordial chaos which is capable of mildly mimicking and displaying the prowess of different laws Leylin would need to gain an estimated grasp of the laws themselves.
As for what that law exactly would be, that would depend on the type of creation Leylin whats to propagate as well as what he can stimulate.
'If I guessed correctly apart from the few basics, it may also need the inclusion of high grade laws like law of space and time.' Leylin touched his chin as he pondered. Obviously gaining an inkling of space and time and mastering it is a completely different matter. All of the different greater worlds can be classified as extremely powerful Rank 8 existence who can display unmatched might in their selective domain which is the world created through the origin force. It's quite similar to divine domain of God's in God World.
Only understanding a part of space and time laws isn't really an impossible feat to accomplish, if one where to think about it this feat was somehow accomplished in the past with an item like Ancient Clock, the auctioned item pertaining to space law in Azure Mountain Banter.
But obviously Leylin need to reach a far greater realm just rudimentary concept is far from enough to meet his requirements. One can easily summarise that this is a huge undertaking, even Leylin is not really sure if it would be fruitful.
'I need to look for chances outside the Magus World... but that's also exactly why I am perfecting truesoul splitting in the first place." Leylin is confident that he can achieve a good results despite of not being successful eventually in his main goal hence he isn't very reluctant to invest his time.
This is because he had already reached the realm of law being and has come in contact with Ignox who would fill the missing piece. As for the final result, it would have to depend on luck...
"Luck or maybe destiny? Who knows but it can be said that even destiny is just a part of the greater knowledge, something which is beyond the reach of comprehension is considered as uncontrollable and everyone has different take in this unrestrained factor. A knowledge which is hard to access and gain is what we classify to fall under the hands of fate. It can be considered as something that is all encompassing. A Wisdom which surpass all.. So I would just let the wisdom carry me through the astral plane searching for my destiny!"
Even if it was only an incarnation, it was also everlasting. Leylin original body's upper limit also rose. All he needed now was the resources in order to break through.
"Creation —Four Auspicious Beast Array!"
As he wavered, a large amount of the law power was consumed within a foggy dense sea of consciousness inside Leylin as it manifested into a dreamland. The four elements began to gather, merging crackling dividing and bringing about a stable spirit; shockingly, it was the Placenta from Purgatory World!
"The array that I created using the power of a law as its foundation. With the increase in my stats, the A. I. Chip was also evolved tremendously and it was able to swiftly access and comprehend the previous undecipherable sealing technique on «Hands of Hades». The core creation elements are comparable to the former trigram despite being weaker but then again, it's under my mindscape where it's power is multiplied several folds and would then be comparable to the original seal!"
Kaboom!
The four element energy swirled as the four auspicious beats brimming with bloodline force and law energy roared, transforming into gigantic visage of their transformation. They bowed down in unison, greeting Leylin or the humongous indifferent Adhishesha phantom that appeared behind him.
"Creation of Four Auspicious Beast Array… State of Primordial Creator!"
Leylin could sense clearly that the heart of his materialized dreamland had an unknown form that was gradually accumulating.
"With this I would be able to slowly assemble the vitality of the Heavenly Abode of Purgatory. Although it would still not deal with the fundamental problem of refining it but I would cross that bridge later."
Of course, compared to this, what made him even happier was the transformation of the Four Auspicious Beasts.
Accompanied by his breakthrough of becoming a law being, the bloodline transformed into bloodline origin, and they even had bodies that can be manifested physically which means if he wants Leylin can create Four Bloodline Families with bloodline powers pertaining to Rank 6!
Leylin could tell that if they were let out, then he could completely utilize them to produce offsprings!
This was the power of a law beings—creating something extraordinary even goldy like.
"Hm?" Immediately after, with the raise of his eyebrow, he put simmer the excitement in his heart.
"It's been ten years?" He muttered to himself, suddenly disappearing from a laboratory and arriving at another space.
"Lord Ignox, long time no see! I presume the arrangements for the contract has been settled." Leylin smiled as he greeted the Magus in front of him, a being of laws.
Ignox smiled and nodded. "Yes, Lord Leylin! As well, a lot of our comrades are extremely excited after learning about your existence, They couldn't suppress their desire to meet you!"
"Then lets not delay, I would hate to make them wait. A junior like myself only hold deep admiration for those ancient and powerful beings!" A hint of intelligence shone in Leylin's eyes, and the two of them turned into light and vanished.
While on the way, Leylin transmitted a message, Making use of this opportunity, Leylin began to chat again.
After all, since Ignox was his senior, he possessed a lot of knowledge that Leylin currently needed. The discussion went delightfully on the way. Ignox was rather amazed at how multi-talented and erudite he was. After all, as an existence of laws who had recently advanced, Leylin's expansive and profound knowledge far surpassed his peers.
As they conversed, they kept going deeper and deeper into the subterranean world. They ended up breaking through the seventh level, and entered a dark and unknown space.
'The core of Magus World.' Leylin sized up his surroundings. The void and darkness were like the unknown layers within the universe, holding the mysterious World Will within them.
The closer he got, the more Leylin could sense the existence of the World Will. While it was weak and slumbering, just the natural power it emitted startled him.
"Welcome to the deepest region of the underground, as well as where the higher-ups of the Magus World reside!" Ignox had completely lost his human form and transformed into an unknown existence.
Leylin shut his eyes. Here, he could clearly sense the existence of a multitude of laws, and some were even explicitly conspicuous. The environment here was much better than the surface of the Magus World.
[Beep! Traces of destroyed spacetime pathways discovered. World origin force is being dispersed.] The A.I. Chip prompted at this moment.
This is the reason why all Rank 8 law being stayed here, With laws being exposed and the origin power of the world emanating from it, the attraction it held for all these existences was incomparable to anything else.
If it were him, he would definitely stay here all the time as well…
