These days, Leylin is making use of the A.I. Chip to scan the red force multiple times, performing many experiments. However, he'd had not much positive results.
Afterwards with a strange ideas, he decided to use the dream spell he learned from Carol on herself.
After Leylin got the spell he has tried all he could to get something to initiate in an interplanar experiment, hoping to link to the Dreamscape.
Facing failures after failures Leylin used it on Carol to testify it's strength and ability, with A. I. Chip meticulous scanning and a top level guinea pig Leylin had a great chances of achieving a good result.
Leylin drived her soul from one fantasy world to another world slowly breaking her spirit with each trail trying to understand the application of dreamscape in these phenomenons. Finally after unceasing torture she couldn't take it anymore suffering abominable damage to her soul and her instability caused an anomaly which revealed the the crack between the reality and dream illusion.
Leylin used this chance to immediately dive in and fish for benefits, ideally trying to crack the coordinates of dreamscape which he unfortunately couldn't but Leylin was successful in capturing and gathering some mass of intangible dreamforce which suited his further research.
The current amount he has left on himself is merely a tenth of what he initially captured, this is mostly because of dreamforce being extremely hard to contain. Leylin performed various experiment trying to prepare an alloy or chamber to keep it contained.
Finally Leylin was able to reduce the dissipation of dreamforce by a great margin as he immediately started the experiment to establish a connection which is very hard but Leylin gained an epiphany during his time in the crack of dream and reality as he utilized his sentient force to analyze and stimulate the dreamforce.
Dreamscape is the source of dreamforce in the astral plane so, if Leylin could replicate that force then he may very well trace it back to it's source finding the dreamscape at the end.
In the boundless astral plane, the two most powerful worlds were the Magus World and the World of Gods.
Of course, due to the ancient war, both of these worlds had been weakened, though the Magus World was now gradually regaining its former glory.
Dreamscape was the strangest and most mysterious world! Time and space were misleading and the place was filled with various indefinite laws.
Things that were obvious and followed common sense did not exist there. In other words, everything was topsy-turvy, and it was a world with no real laws.
Even the ancient Magus World had been taken aback when met with the invasion by Dreamscape. Of course, it was also due to this very instability that Dreamscape's attack had started strong but sputtered out.
And though it's full of all sorts of strange things, that's an opportunity for Leylin. Other worlds had existences that abided by objective laws. Personal growth required much time and energy there.
However, anything was possible in Dreamscape. If he wanted to obtain the most strength in the shortest amount of time, he would have to go in there and try his luck.
Of course, one had to be prepared to return with no benefits.
'To me dreamscape is only a source of energy and nothing else!' Leylin thought inwardly.
[Beep! Astral Gate initiated! Energy source detected to be normal. Transportation of item initiated from #3 Clone. Protocol Administered. Request Accepted. Beginning connection with sender astral gate] The A.I. Chip quickly intoned. Along with its robotic prompt, all the apparatus in the laboratory activated methodically. The rays of light and the sounds combined to form the most splendid of symphonies.
When he had entered, Leylin's soul force had long since taken control of all the apparatus and energy sources here, and then handed it over to the A.I. Chip to manage.
Though Leylin had set up a spirit genie here, that was just a ruse. How could such low-levelled programs match up to his A.I. Chip?
Under the control of the A.I. Chip, Leylin's usage of everything in the laboratory was as fluent as him using his own arm.
[Astral gate has been engaged!]
In the laboratory, the stone gate emanating weak starlight rumbled, being covered by blue light in the form of flames.
Countless mysterious links were generated in the flames, and the void crumbled, revealing the shadows of innumerable unknown places.
A river of light was formed entirely out of blue stars that were the shadows of these foreign worlds, majestically surging into the darkness unknown.
As soon as the astral gate abruptly opened, Leylin knew that the clone from Spirit Mark Works is sending an item since, he used the A.I.Chip to start analyzing the data from #3 clone and find out the reason.
"Interesting!" Leylin murmured as a glint of fervour shone in his eyes waiting for the item meanwhile marveling at the wonders of the Astral World and it's beauty.
After his advance to the Radiant Moon realm, the form of this astral gate before his eyes had been changed as well, and his exploration of the astral plane had become more thorough.
A great, ancient aura was being transmitted from the astral gate, and Leylin immediately turned serious as he closed his eyes, sensing everything attentively.
Bits of blue starlight covered his body, and with the passage of time, the rays on it grew more solid, to the point that they resembled actual flames.
Within the point mass, the crescent that was his truesoul abruptly emanated clear rays of light. It seemed to have absorbed something from the astral plane, in the process becoming more pure and dazzling. His soul force that had been supplemented greatly by the company of the phoenix egg seemed to be rinsed and purified as it completely stabilised.
These are the mysteries of the astral plane, and its resonance with the soul.
Leylin's eyes seemed different as he opened them, One need a complete harmony between their soul and the rest of the world. Once they reach the realm of that fusion, the next step will be to synchronise the soul with the astral plane. No matter what path to power one use, at the end it still feels strangely familiar, like coming back home.
*Buzzz*
Using the astral gate as a coordinate an item emerged from the gate and fall in Leylin hands.
Leylin looked at it with intrest, it was a triangular chalk crystal with a comfortable chill around it, like a breezy wind in a hot summer night.
[Beep! Special object detected! Gathering information.] After a period of examination and simulation, the A.I. Chip sounded again.
"This!" Leylin eyes widen as he looked at the analysis brought up by the A. I. Chip and the fantastic usage it had.
........
Spirit Mark World.
After Leylin commanded for the full frontal war against the Atma Clan deciding to fight straight on against the Ancestor, the whole army march was prepared in a moment of time.
Maroon has been waiting for this opportunity for a long long time and finally today is the day where he would get to destroy the vile family which brought only suffering and shame to both him and his late mother.
Maroon gripped his hands tightly clenching his teeth grinding them, looking straight towards the last fort in this war to conquer.
"I am back and today I would end the job I left over last time!"
Rueh City was a military town which is the center and the headquarters of the Atma Clan. The town was built purely of snow granite, which made it look like a huge fort from afar.
Currently, a huge militia lined away from the entrance of the town, and soldiers and fleets of carriages crossed the gates occasionally.
Flags bearing the Azad Army crest which was a White Tiger were everywhere, and the silhouettes of knights leading small patrol teams were scattered around.
Maroon with the other four general prepared themselves wearing formal standard armour and war attire and stood before the battle hungry and blood thirsty army.
"Today is the day we have all been waiting for!" Maroon said slowly still his voice was loud and clear in the whole battlefield as each and every soldier looked at him with a stern expression.
"The pain that we have been suffering from till immemorial time and the tyranny we have all been a victim off!"
"We have lost a lot of our comrades in this battle for justice and today we might -no- we most definitely would lose more but tell me is it not worth it !?"
"The blood we have spilled and the pain we bear, the losses we have incurred and the scars on our souls, it's all for our future and for the future of our childrens. We would win so that no one shall bear through what we did. Let's Fight For The Future!"
"For The Future!" A boom was heard as the earth shook and the sky roared under the battle cries of the unstoppable army.
"For The Army!"
"For The Army!!!! "
"For The Lord!"
"For The Lord!!!"
Chants and cries were made shaking the whole ground as the moral of the army was all time high currently.
Not far away, a black dot expanded in the sky, gradually forming a human figure.
Watching the army where there was an uproar, Leylin shook his head slightly. He ceased advancing and silently waited.
As their roars again shook the whole plane a sudden silence envelope the army as a suffocation pressure was released for a person who unknowingly appeared above them.
'Its all because of you, Master! Please show them what true strength means!' Maroon looked at the person with reverence and fear as he immediately bowed along with the other generals, "My Lord!"
As soon as they bowed everyone understood the identify of the person in the sky, it's none other than the Supreme One!
"It's the Lord Supreme One! Quick, bow!"
Leave alone ordinary soldiers, even high-ranking military officers and commanders knelt in front of him respectfully.
Leylin stood tall in the sky as he looked at the battlefield before him, his Azad amry outnumbered the remaining forces of the Atma Clan by at least 5 times and the quality of the normal warriors wasn't that bad either.
The only advantage for Atma clan was the greater number of mid-level expert but that would be thoroughly suppressed by the higher numbers of top level Quasi-Continent from the Azad Army.
The Clan had four Quasi-Continent level expert and each and everyone of them except one weren't in best of fighting conditions, both physically and mentally. The strongest was a fragile looking skeleton of a man whose power would mostly be able to hold two of the general Quasi-Continent level expert in Azad Army side and as for the remaining three it's not even a competition against the Azad Army Generals with their superior body conditions.
The Old Man looked dead straight at Maroon as he didn't dare to look at Leylin, "You Bastard! Today even at the cost of my life I would end your dog life!"
Maroon looked indifferent towards his provocation as he lightly smiled, "You are very good for you age, it's most definitely because of a forbidden techniques that you have such rice aura but you don't have much in the tank when pitted against me. Today is the end of your tyranny, Dad!"
"Attack!"
Leylin stroked his chin. "The bloodbath here will truly be terrifying…."
Leylin isn't really a big fan of this extermination fighting because at his level, they are nothing more than mere ants and he would prefer to rule them but all those inside the barricade are the most loyal people of the Atma Clan, they would never siege under him and they would only become troublesome pests if left to their own devices so, it best to get rid of them completely.
"Hoo.. Hoo…."
As if tired of waiting, many warriors started an uproar as they charged towards the city's walls.
Ten thousand horses like rides charged on the field, causing the ground to tremble a little.
