Chapter 202
A/N : Thank you all for your well wishes, I am feeling fine now. I figured if I am good enough to scroll Instagram all day then I am good enough to write. I would post two chapters today and two chapters tomorrow that would cover up the lost days.
As for my other works, in [Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked] I would resume from tomorrow, I am not so well to pick them all up instantly. And for Tdg I have to first get a review from the fans about the next course of action and take input before I proceed. Well we will talk about those works in those novels.
Thank you for the support and enjoy?

Leylin smiled mildly as Maroon voluntarily surrendered his life essence, his soul alter to him withdrawing all of his natural defences. This is the ultimate sign of surrender to anyone, Maroon has vacated all of his defiance because now Leylin could just choose to devour his soul and it’s knowledge and destroy Maroon for all eternity.
Maroon knew that his reluctance to ask for Leylin help and also trying to keep him away from this world would bring about his dissatisfaction. He has been a first hand recipient of the terror of the powerhouses at Sovereign level, and with his and his daughter life on the line, he immediately suppressed all thoughts of betrayal and wholeheartedly accepted his fate, all for a chance.
Maroon had another reason for this choice, although Leylin hasn’t helped him out of benevolence previously, his help and technique have enabled Maroon to reach heights he could never dream off, he has become someone whose name resounds throughout the continent and all this is credited to this man before him.
Leylin looked at calm and naked Soul Altar which was floating without any resistance and said, “You have gained the whole of your <celestial specter form> cultivation technique I see.”
“Yes, I have but it’s only till the Quasi level I don’t know what to do after that, my best guess is that it’s something one has to experience themselves and if there is any pointers or secrets to breakthough only Ancestor of the Atma Clan would be able to give any.”
“Quasi Level?” Leylin asked with bewilderment but he immediately waved his hand before Maroon answered, all of the knowledge is right before him there is no need in wasting his time asking about it.
‘Let’s dig in!’ Leylin spread his hand as he sucked the soul altar dissolved the information from the soul altar and transferred it into his A. I. Chip through spiritual seed soul force technique.
[Beep! Data is being transferred through the A. I. Chip terminal to the main channel.] Various images, information, data and knowledge flashed past Leylin as the A. I. Chip immediately collected the needed information and started sorting it in different classification depending on the area, genre and importance.
Most importantly the whole cultivation technique was delivered to him, followed by Maroon’s deepest secrets and then the common knowledge and current situation of the Marksa-Mile World(Spirit Mark World).
Leylin opened his eyes and looked at Maroon with an impressed smile, “You have some guts trying to plot against a continent sovereign and although you failed, keeping yourself alive from his wrath is an accomplishment of itself.”
Maroon bowed his head shaking his head in residual regret and sighing, “It was stupid for me to let the status of a Quasi-Continent get to my head and lose the sight of what’s possible and what’s fantasy.”
Leylin nodded and looked at him with an impressed gaze. Leylin now understood what a Quasi-Continent means and the implications of someone at such a level.
Unlike in Magus World where there is a distinct difference of the ability to use soul force which characterizes and distinguish a Rank 3 and a Morning Star Magus, and the difference between the two is heaven and earth. Here in the Spirit Mark World there is a certain classification which falls between these two ranks and it’s called the Quasi level.
A Quasi level cultivator is stronger than a normal country monarch and have a certain ability which touches upon the realm of Sovereigns.
A person only becomes a Quasi level expert when they lack one of the two most basic requirements to break though to Sovereign Level from peak Country Monarch. These two are first accumulation of spirit thread force and secondly the understanding of the realm itself.
Things like cultivation, talent, resources are too vagus to be counted as most important because without these things one cannot even fathom to touch upon the boundaries of these realm.
Quasi-Continent level experts are the strongest and most elite force of any continent just below the Continent Sovereign. In Spirit Mark World there is a total of seven continent divided and ruled by seven top level experts and just below them stands these Quasi-Continent cultivators. And in normal situation these lofty sovereigns rarely care about the worldly ties as they keep trying to push through their own realm and unravel a greater rank, in such a situation only the Quasi-Continent experts rules the continent as they see fit with little to no resistance.
After getting the body strengthening technique, Maroon was unbelievably strong as a cultivator as he stalked his enemies and slowly made his rise while keeping his head down and his name away from dangerous existence. Through his epic journey he successfully killed some direct descendants and acquires more levels and notes of his cultivation technique finally reaching Quasi-Continent level where he stood unmatched and peerless.
His rampant attacks on the Atma Clan caused the downfall of many pillars of the clan as he crushed many of their forces and destroyed their unrivaled control over many regions.
Even after Maroon wantonly killed the direct descendants and also defeated the other Quasi-Continent level experts of the Atma Clan replacing their control and the Sovereign didn’t respond or react hence, Maroon become too overconfident which ultimately was the reason of his downfall.
‘The ancestor of the Atam Clan, he is a legit Morning star Magus level expert but his reluctance to get rid of Maroon by personally involving and attacking is weird. It’s almost as if he didn’t care and in addition to his inability to eventually kill him, it’s too suspicious.’ Leylin thought about the bizzare situation but due to the lack of knowledge about the Ancestor of the Atma clan he cannot make any solid guess.
‘Well eventually I would know, but currently a lot of interesting things are happening and this guys is also valuable.’ Leylin looked at Maroon and smiled.
“My name is Leylin Farlier. Maroon, if you accept me as your master wholeheartedly and promise to serve me then I would help you to reach that level, the one you have always yearned for.” Leylin offered.
Maroon shivered as he immediately bowed with gratefulness, Leylin doesn’t need to offer him anything in return yet he gave him such an offer. He didn’t for once thought that Leylin was lying.
“I, Maroon vows to always serve Lord Leylin through life and death.” Maroon solemnly said as a certain part of his spirit was ripped apart and was submitted to Leylin’s will as a contract between a servant and a master was formed.
With the current situation Maroon has no doubt in his mind that Leylin would completely change the landscape of this continent and the whole world probably so, he immediately jumped at the chance to become closer to him.
“My Lord if you don’t mind-” Maroon looked at his daughter room and said nervously.
“Maroon, your daughter would become a very interesting character in the future I have no doubt about her remarkable achievement in the future as well, but even with her situation and talents I think it would be essential to receive proper guidance so, I would be taking her as my disciple.” Leylin announced stating the thought in Maroon mind, Maroon immediately cried with happiness and was genuinely touched.
Leylin saw that Maroon really loves his daughter more than anything so, he took her in as it would grant his undying loyalty and more importantly..
‘For someone with such an unique birth circumstances how could I not observe it.’ Leylin smiled deviously.
“Your rebellion group, can you contact them and regain your leadership position?”
“Yes, master easily. All the current heads of all the rebellion groups are all loyal to me.”
