Indeed, it was time to change some things and give some energy to the development of the Ouroboros Clan. He realized that what he was doing till now wasn't bad, considering all things, but it would not be enough.
If he wanted to have equal footing with the other members of the Orden, he would need not only personal strength, which was certainly the most important, but he would also need other types of power.
Not only would he be able to gather more resources through the larger faction, but he would look more powerful.
And most importantly, if he was able to cultivate some very strong faction, he would be able to gain a stable foothold in any place in the empty vastness of the Endless Void. With such a powerful faction behind his back, he could send them to do things for him.
Not to mention that he had perfect conditions to create one because everything would stem from his bloodline. His bloodline was very powerful and on the greater path; naturally, he could cultivate more people that were originating from his bloodline.
If he could create something akin to greater bloodline control and build his faction around the Ouroboros Clan in the center, then he would be able to create a powerful hegemon.
"It seems that there is a lot of work to be done..."
Leylin muttered...
"Moving to the South Coast is not a strategically wrong decision, but some environmental changes there are necessary... increasing the Elemental Density should be a priority and the Ouroboros Clan needs to extend their roots deeper into the Subterranean World than I have initially predicted."
The resources in the Subterranean World are far more than one faction could ever use and Leylin was aware that it would become the lifeblood of the Ouroboros Clan.
For now, the most important thing was the re-structuralize the South Coast and revitalize that dammed place, increasing the Elemental Density and Magical Desnity in that place.
Even though the Elemental Density was not as important for the Warlocks as it was to Magi, it still played a significant role in their path.
Aside from that, Leylin was already thinking about how to obtain more and more territories in the Subterranean World. The Arthur Empire that ruled great parts of the 1st Layer of the Subterranean World was not that strong in his opinion to keep control over those lands.
Some accidents may happen from time to time... Unforutanly, right now, the Ouroboros Clan was too weak... too weak.
From his talks with the Ignox, the Rank 7 Magus Being of Law, who was responsible for the upper layers of the Subterranean World, he noticed that the old man didn't care about mortal affairs...
He certainly understood why most of beings of such level tended to just do their own things and completely disregard the mortal matters. Yet at the same time, he understood the prolonged benefits of cultivating the forces.
Leylin took the Father of All Devils as an example.
He was aware that if the man didn't spend too much time playing Emperor and cultivating his armies and forces, then he would have certainly reached higher levels of power and wouldn't need outside help like this.
Nevertheless, nobody could deny the behemoth that the Chthonian Empire was...
As a member of the Longinus Dreizhen Orden, he was aware that even the most powerful ancient magi, those who reached Peak Rank 8, would be considered only 1st-rate Powerhouses.
Not the top...
Because the top belonged to beings that were even above the Rank 9 Magi.
Such was the terrifying might of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator that Zeoticus Lucifer cultivated.
And the gains were visible.
From what he saw, the might of the Chthonian Empire was so terrifying that they were able to send expeditions to other Universes, bring them to heels and obtain the resources for the Father of All Devils without the man needing to move an inch.
"For now, the cultivation of powerhouses within the Clan should become a top priority... Breaking Dawn Magi are nothing special, as they are still essentially mortals; Beings of Law are different."
Leylin was already formulating plans with his A.I. Chip.
"First step would be reaching the Rank 7 Being of Law and using some of the treasures to exchange them for the Law Crystals to allow some less talented but loyal subjects to reach the Being of Law. That should allow the Clan to undergo a significant power boost and increase our reach tremendously."
The Law Crystals were something that was very precious in the Kadath Universe, where several members of the Longinus Dreizhen Orden lived. They would allow one instantly to comprehend Laws and reach the status and rank of Being of Law.
Naturally, nothing was free in the entropy of reality and the cost was that one wouldn't be able to progress to higher levels of power after consumption of the Law Crystal.
All paths would be cut and the sole one would remain, which was to use the Law Crystals once again.
The Law Crystals were expensive even for the nobility of the Chthonian Empire of the Baator, but with the upcoming wealth the Ouroboros Clan would obtain, Leylin had already long ago calculated that he could afford a few of them.
"And the Warlock Union and other Magus Organizations would create the outer layer around my faction, essentially acting as foot soldiers and lower-end powerhouses."
The Bloodline Monarch Leylin Farlier, has decided to act and to start the work. The first thing he did was to summon all three Dukes of the Ouroboros Clan, who were only Rank 4 Morning Star Magi and his wife, Freya.
As his payment, he also found a few things, such as some rare treasures that are able to raise the Soul Aptitude of the person; it only affirmed the vision of how important the thing was to the Father of All Devils.
