"Such Injuries to the truesoul are the most terrifying to encounter and most troublesome to deal with. Even existences of laws would sink into a deep sleep in order to heal them, although my soul is remarkably strong and has ultimate regeneration ability, the burden of double splitting would still be very horrifying…" Leylin laughed wryly. This is a result of splitting a small part of his truesoul. If it's anything like what Beezlebub did, giving his soul a great portion of his prowess then, it's very possible that Leylin main body could even die after failure.
The phantom of an injured and tired Adishesha behind Leylin's back withered and slowly disappeared. Two bit of faint red light flew out from between his brows and disappeared into his hand, flashing like a firefly. These were the smaller truesoul that Leylin had split. The experiment had to begin immediately, lest it dissipate from prolonged exposure to the external world.
"Astral gate, open!" Leylin huffed in a low voice, and a procedure identical to before was executed but apart from before currently two astral gates were working simultaneously. On the first one, his soul force waded through the long astral river until it arrived at the tremendous crystal wall surrounding the World of Gods.
Leylin glanced at the second astral gate which was set at the farthest most end region closet to Magus World known in this astral plane called 'Dead Soul Domain'. There were dense space turbulence the likes of which caused the astral gate to shudder uncontrollably even through it was very far away from it!
"Let's deal with both of them at the same time, I am too tired to work them one by one."
"Manderhawke's Plate!" The stone plate in Leylin's hands came to the crystal wall and a funnel like distortion appeared in the Dead Soul Domain, although in the later the effects looked very subpar but on the World of God's crystal wall it was emitting a light that caused a portion to seem to be on the verge of melting.
After a few moment, the second astral gate showed nothing remarkable except for the increase in size of the funnel meanwhile for the first one, a channel opened through the crystal wall.
'It's about time... I hope it works' Leylin eyes sharpened as he spread his palm which had a green vein right between his hand lines. The green vein enlarged as a shadow of a huge tree appeared, the lively light green energy from it illuminated the whole laboratory.
"Seed Of Wisdom!" Leylin muttered solemnly as he surprisingly just casually throw the tree towards the second astral gate as if it was worthless, as it transform into a mass of green calming energy and formed a funnel in the Dead Soul Domain with the help of Manderhawke's Plate.
Suddenly the funnel erupted with dense dark green power, as a suppressing power the likes of which Leylin have never felt before condensed in the astral gate turning it greener in color enveloped with a mysterious aura seemingly able to perceive the truth of whole world.
Leylin's eyes brightened and immense rank 7 spell undulations were emitted from his body. "Rank 7 spell— Astral Sentient Reincarnation!"
Leylin's eyes flashed, and the two small truesoul separated and disappeared into the two astral gate.
Time seemed to stop in that instant. The first bit of truesoul in Leylin's hands was enveloped in the brilliance of the Astral Sentient Reincarnation spell as it disappeared into the World of Gods.
Everything happened quickly. Once it was done, the Manderhawke Plate exploded thunderously as huge cracks threatening the integrity and existence of the object appeared on it, and the crystal wall from before closed itself quickly with no trace of a flaw.
The second part of the truesoul was likewise enveloped by the Astral Sentient Reincarnation spell but it was also permeated by the energy from Seed Of Wisdom as an immense kinetic force accumulated on the funnel compressing it largely decreasing it's size and the extremely compacted twitching amalgamation radiated as it suddenly exploded breaking through a small almost hundredth of a hair breath size space node and into the great unknown..
*Boom!* Practically the very moment the truesoul disappeared into the pathway, the entire Manderhawke Plate crumbled into powder. Leylin main body was sent flying backwards, numerous terrifying wounds already appearing on his body as he turned pale.
Fresh blood spurted everywhere, but it returned to Leylin's body at an even faster rate, as if his body had become a huge magnet. The terrifying injuries disappeared in an instant, though Leylin's face was still obviously pale, his figure was furiously shuttering.
Although Leylin forcefully maintained his body integrity together because of his otherworldly level of vitality but he still suffered huge injuries pertaining to his soul.
"It's all up to the truesoul now…" The huge astral gate gradually collapsed, and Leylin could only smile wryly.
With his serious injuries, he could only slumber in his laboratory despite his primordial chaos law and the Placenta of Purgatory which has the ability to both nourish his soul. The primordial chaos is the beginning and convergence of multiple paths where the gods collide the magus and the ability of soul purification is the sentient force alternation.
Sentient Force is capable of reshaping itself into any form of power, it's ability is something which is absolutely ridiculous. If one has enough sentient force then they can even bypass all the other resources needed for growth in magus path or ant other power system because it can substitute them all! With Leylin rise to Rank 7, the true face of his innate ability also slowly surfaced.
Currently only law force can take the charge and be of any use to him suitable enough to bear the weight of the cost, otherwise not even killing thousands of Rank 6 would amount to anything for the current him!
Leylin primordial chaos is in complete synchronization with his innate ability and he would be able to swiftly recuperate with time as he controlled his clone in the World of Gods and also beyond the astral plane.
These injuries are enough for a law being to sleep for a few hundred years, and even Leylin would need a considerable amount of time but he can return to functionality in a few decades or possibly a century, he could then probably spend his time with his wives and childrens if his schedule allows it and he is recovered enough.
At that time, he would be weakened but it's no problem, his enemies won't dare come to Magus World and those who can threaten him like the law inhabitants of Magus World won't act unkindly, Leylin has signed a contract with Magus Will as a witness and the terms of the contract goes both ways.
Any Law being who act against Leylin would face a huge full blown retaliation from the keeper and they might even need to flee, that is if he can keep his life.
Leylin has no grudge or clash of interest against any of them, so they won't act stupidly without rhyme or reason and Leylin also knows that Mother Core would not allow him to fall so easily because of the War which is creeping near. There is also the fact that most would be extremely busy in their planning for the upcoming battle.
"If I don't get any benefits from outside the astral plans, the World of Gods would be my saving grace otherwise I would be crushed in the clash of titans, and it would be such a huge loss…" With this thought, Leylin's body disappeared into the ground under the laboratory.
With the slumber of his main body, all of his attention was focused on his clones.
The brainwashing and refining from a world origin was a very terrifying process.
Leylin felt that his second clone would need some time to transverse the astral plane boundary even with the help of Wisdom Tree hence, he turned his attention to World of God's.
Leylin's truesoul could sense that ever since he entered the World of Gods, terrifying energy whirlpools had formed next to him, tirelessly washing away all traces of the power he used to possess.
Evidently, this was an effect of the rank 7 spell, Astral Sentient Reincarnation. It allowed Leylin to reach the core of the World of Gods and be altered by the origin itself.
Once this modification was over, he could perhaps wash off all traces of being from another world and truly become a native of the World of Gods.
This alteration happened extremely quickly. The luster of the Manderhawke Plate had diminished by a huge degree after opening just the external layer of the crystal wall, and after opening up the World of Gods, it had been directly destroyed with no traces of it left at all.
Next was the power of the rank 7 spell, the reincarnation spell that allowed Leylin to arrive in this world. Its luster gradually dissipated.
Just like stripping off a greatcoat, once the rays of light of the reincarnation spell dissipated, Leylin's truesoul was fully bared in the immense darkness.
Vastness! Terror! Boundlessness!
This was Leylin's truesoul's first thoughts. Compared to this enormous world, his little truesoul was nothing and couldn't even be compared to an ant, and it could only tremble in the corner.
The and powerful source immediately invaded into Leylin's truesoul. The truesoul, which had already been shrunk and condensed to a large degree, surprisingly gradually became slower under the alteration of the world force.
"Everything is being removed…" Leylin's truesoul watched this process, able to only laugh.
The truesoul was constantly altered, to the point that Leylin's own conscience was gradually becoming fuzzy.
Gradually, the changes from the world force went on to the deepest layer of his truesoul, where his memories and his most important elements of self were.
The tremendous soul force ruthlessly invaded it with no intentions of stopping.
"Truly terrifying.."
Leylin's truesoul was on the verge of death, and only this little thought appeared tenaciously, as if making its last struggle.
*Bzzt bzzt!* At this moment, a bright silver white light shone from Leylin's truesoul memories.
Under the influence of the white rays of light, the world force hesitated for that slight moment, and then let go of Leylin's memories, altering other areas.
This is the power of the Astral Sentient Reincarnation spell, it still has a bit of energy left, stored in his memories.
Leylin's truesoul was perplexed, but having been diminished to the limit quickly sank into a deep sleep.
Time seemed to stop at this moment, but at the same time, a long time seemed to have passed. During this long time of inactivity, Leylin main body in the Magus World felt a jolt as a feedback seem to appear from it.
"It has finally crossed and entered into the new plane, now all that's left is to choose a good enough powerful World to infiltrate but from the state of things, it's a tall order. The Truesoul is already on the verge of collapse and at this point anything is good enough. It seems that it's not up to me to decide at this conjecture, no matter there is always the scope of reaching the appex of that World and travel and search the cosmos. There is a whole new astral world to discover but.." Leylin fell into contemplation remembering the truesoul clone past adventure, because at the time of final portion of journey he could feel that the Seed Of Wisdom has run out of gas and the truesoul was bare naked without any protection left with a portion of dangerous journey left for travel.
Leylin thought for sure that the truesoul is dead but astonishingly enough, a channel seem to appear from the new astral plane itself sucking his truesoul guiding it as well as protecting it, at this point Leylin is sure that something must have helped him transverse.
"Maybe it was a reincarnation of that soul? Did the Wisdom Tree actually helped me traverse to reach the destination of a soul looking for reincarnation and replaced in its place? " Leylin furrowed brows, at the end of journey, Leylin encounter a small minuscule glob of energy which come in contact with him and immediately wither away, afterwards Leylin soul felt a calling and was grasped by some power to break into the new world.
"Oh, the truesoul from God World is finally reborn!"
...
"Where… is this?" Leylin muddled truesoul, who regained his consciousness, sized up his surroundings, stunned.
Perhaps 'sizing up' wasn't the right term for it, because he no longer had a body, and naturally had no eyes or organs like that.
What he was now doing was using his senses to explore the area like feelers.
Darkness… It was darkness all around with no light at all. Leylin, who was now conscious, measured up his surroundings and felt helpless.
At this point even his truesoul has vanished. This just a body that's a mixture of memories and a fragmented soul now.
Leylin's conscient was suddenly enlightened waking up from a foggy state. At this moment, there seemed to be a black hole in the air that sucked his conscient in.
Leylin's conscient found itself getting dizzy as it sunk into a deep sleep…
....
An Unknown World, at a corner of an unknown universe.
Leylin woke up with a start. His head was throbbing in pain, as if it was filled with lead and it felt extremely heavy.
Once the pain faded decreased slightly, he found himself in a dimly lit stone cave which was the size of a basketball court. Piles of bones were scattered all over the place, and a dozen corpses covered in strange clothes lay beside him. The clothes looked new and bright. As if these people had died recently.
"Where is this? In this the place where I was sucked into. Was it a soul summoning spell? If it was, does it mean Ancient wisdom Tree actually helped me swap places with the so-called protagonist of a novel?" Leylin thought amusing himself as he was slowly rearranging the information in his head, and he is remembering the time when he lost himself during the travel inside a mysterious blue-hole.
Leylin powerlessly lay collapsed on the ice-cold rock ground, looking at his surroundings with the aid of a dim light coming from the cave walls. In his mind, there appeared some memory fragments that didn't belong to him.
This was the memory of another person...
That of a strange boy who was 17 years old. He was attracted to antiques and was obsessed with all kinds of historical remains; because of an ancient map, he strived for half a year and eventually got here with his guards.
Feeling weak all over, Leylin unused to this situation and fragile state frowned and slowly lifted himself up.
Just then, Leylin noticed this body, his new body which was that of the other person who was only 17 years old.
He was dumbstruck for a moment.
"Astral Sentient Reincarnation spell should reborn me as a child after being thoroughly scanned by the World Will, why am I a teenager? Is there no World Will? or is it muddled like Purgatory or perhaps it's the work of the strange blue hole?"
