Adishesha Castle, it is the name of the residential palace of Leylin where his main body lives as well as he delves into seclusion for experiments, although named a castle it’s as big as a city with many residents. After hundreds of years it’s now a mottled building, filled with a sense of history. It was the residence of many high-ranking Warlocks, as well as Leylin’s own bloodline.
*Rumble!* Within the deepest innermost secluded and secured region in an underground laboratory, the dark red light quickly dissipated carrying strange hymn of symphony. A gentle tremor shook the whole castle from inside out.
Having long since developed its own conscient, the castle automatically protected the Warlocks within. It didn’t allow a single person to be injured, and at the same time it transmitted an enormous sense of joy.
At the bottom of the laboratory.
Leylin who had long divulged into relentless experiment and cultivation, suddenly shuddered with excitement as if something he has long awaited for seem to be realized.
He finally opened his eyes with a snap the mere force crackling the void and space, brimming with devastating undulation, and a strange phantom of a giant serpent slithered across his pupils.
“My wish of over hundreds of years has finally been fulfilled… I have finally succeeded,” Leylin sighed. His true soul rapidly communicated with the A.I. Chip, and in an instant he had comprehended something which has eluded him for hundred of years.
“The complete comprehension of a law, and hence my advancement to rank 7… It happens today!” Light flashed as Leylin was completely enveloped by a blood-red fireball. He quickly moved outside the boundaries of the Magus World, arriving at the boundless astral plane.
Comprehending a complete law was no small matter; he wasn’t certain that he could contain all the radiation. Adishesha Castle was full of Leylin’s subordinates and blood relatives, so he wouldn’t accept any large accidents.
“Netherworld of Nihility!” Leylin gently chanted, and dark red runes appeared on his body as a bloody dark mist enveloped him within submerging his body.
After he advanced to become a half a step law being, Leylin had already grasped his understanding of primordial chaos to an unprecedented degree even somewhat surpassing the whole step of smelting into a new path.
However, he was still in a state of imperfection, and apart from waiting for last bit of comprehension all he did was to get accustomed to the power of his tyrannical bloodline.
Leylin has spend hundred of years constantly focusing on his law completion spending huge amount of faith energy from his followers throughout these years along with the minute yet stable amount of origin force from his different world, and obviously the rare opportunity to absorb origin force from Magus World.
And finally after all this Leylin achieved his goal, stepping out of an incomplete state of being. Although Leylin prowess is extremely high easily matching Rank 7s but still he wasn’t a true law being in a real essence.
Primordial Chaos was the ultimate law surpassing most astral laws in term of enigma and ability, its mysterious abilities as well as complexity far exceeding Leylin’s expectations.
A vertical eye opened between Leylin’s brows, its gaze seemingly piercing through the barriers of space and time to connect to an unknown realm revolving with possibilities and uncertainty yet within it reigned a God bending the world to it’s wishes.
[Beep! Host has obtained the origin of laws, determined to be the laws of primordial chaos! Assimilation with the body: 99%. Transferring…] the A.I. Chip’s voice intoned.
[Beep! Law of primordial chaos has been analysed completely.]
[Beep! With the influence of the law completion, the host’s bloodline abilities have been perfected. Adishesha bloodline advanced to rank 7!]
[Innate Sentient Force Skill advanced to rank 7.]
An update on the skill followed.
[Sentient Absorb(rank 7 innate spell)— With a perfect comprehension of the laws of primordial chaos, its power has greatly risen. The ability can now be inherited.]
[All requirements met, advancing to rank 7.]
After the law of primordial chaos was completed, Leylin didn’t restrain himself any longer. He projected his bloodline, and an Adishesha phantom the size of a star hissed as its devilish scales blazed up a massive gale, each single scale representing a world of its own. Its razor-sharp fangs and horns radiated holy yet contradictory polar devilish glow portraying and symbolizing the two extreme opposite in harmony.
With the adaptation into True Law Sentient Physique, the Adishesha scales had turned half blackish half white. A vertical eye had formed between its two eyes that were as large as stars. A torrential surge of his bloodline power assimilated with the law of primordial chaos, wrapping Leylin within a mysterious process.
[Beep! Host has advanced to rank 7. Body of laws has been perfected. Stats have changed greatly, recalculating data.]
The A.I. Chip’s prompts brought Leylin back to his senses. He looked at his hands, mulling over the change.
A perfect body of laws. His body is now completely made up of laws and bloodline; as long as the laws are not extinguished… Leylin would be indestructible!
Leylin felt the law of primordial chaos within his body. The feeling of obtaining a full body of laws was incomparable to what he’d gotten when he’d approached the boundary of rank 7.
[Beep! Host’s stats have been recalculated.]
Very soon, Leylin’s new stats were projected by the A.I. Chip.
[Leylin Farlier, rank 7 Warlock. Bloodline: Adhishesha (rank 7). Strength: 379.74, Agility: 292.63, Vitality: 499.28, Spiritual force: 781.85, Soul Status: Body of Laws. Laws comprehended: law of primordial chaos (100%). Host’s body of laws has lost all constraints, and can now absorb more World Origin Force to increase in power.]
‘This much growth! Not even a law being with multiple laws and at least two fully comprehended laws on the way to smelt them to form a new law to enter Rank 8 couldn’t match my prowess! Although I am not really a Rank 8 match but going a few round against them and escaping successfully won’t be an issue.’
‘This is a Rank 7 Warlock, finally I have officially stepped into this mysterious realm! A Magus that has fully comprehended laws! Only… At this stage I can greatly implement my future plans with higher success.’ His soul now made of laws, Leylin’s gaze transcended all distance. He could see into the infinite river of time and space. As long as the origin of his laws survived, this river would allow him to be reborn even if he were felled.
This was the secret of Magi and Gods!
“As expected with my true ascension, I have even acquired more authority…” Leylin rubbed his chin, and the his own secret imprint appeared. It was an unfathomable snake coiled in the centre.
This is the epitome of Nagaraja! King of all Nāgas and one of the primal beings of creation. When the Adishesha uncoils, time moves forward and creation takes place; when he coils back, the universe ceases to exist! Adishesha is a symbol of ‘infinity’, meaning one who has no limits.
“This will be my emblem from now. No matter which intelligent life, or where the place is, as long as they pray or make sacrifices to this emblem, I will be able to sense it, and send my powers to them… I seem to have finally progressed on the part of the gods’ powers….I guess in the greater schemes of things all paths eventually converge!”
Leylin eyes saw into the distance, his vision traversing countless worlds to try gazing past the boundaries of the astral realm.
“Your Excellency Leylin! Welcome to the realm of rank 7…” In the subterranean part of the Magus world, Ignox and Mother Core congratulated him.
After turning into a rank 7 Warlock, he had finally mastered his own bloodline. In other words, the Adishesha bloodline has evolved into a true progenitor from now apart from Snake Dowager.
This strength was his own, his absolute power. He was not constrained by any bloodline but now, it’s his overbearing law and restriction which crumble all understand him and succumb to his glorious never ending reign.
As close to rank 7 as he was before, he’d still been a rank 6 Warlock. His plethora of trump cards and unique law had allowed him to equal Magi who wielded laws before, but now everything had fallen into place.
“My bloodline has already spread this far? It seems like my childrens have been fulfilling their duties…” At this moment, Freya, Lita, Anna, Ivy, Lancy, and their children surfaced in Leylin’s mind.
“Although it’s only just the start of my true goal and isn’t aligned with my original plans, I should see them again. It’s been such a long time!” With just a thought, Leylin’s body appeared back at the Adishesha Castle. There were no traces of any energy waves, demonstrating the terrifying abilities of a Magus who wielded laws.
Leylin looked indifferent as he walked out through the secret pathway and arriving at the outer world.
On an afternoon in a castle, the warming rays of the winter sun shone down, creating a cosy feeling. There was even some snow on the peaks of a few hills surrounding the castle, while also having some life around.
The place Leylin had exited from was the core area where security was at its strictest in the castle.
In the castle, many high-ranked Warlocks supervised and patrolled. The castle had an atmosphere of splendour and grandeur.
Every underground patrolling Warlock’s’ eyes was filled with reverence towards the castle.
What they were guarding was the most powerful Monarch in the central continent! The pride of bloodline Warlocks, the godly Warlock and the most powerful of the Ouroboros Clan, Leylin Farlier— And this was his castle!
Yes, this castle was the core power of Leylin’s power in the south coast and centre of his reign in the whole surface Magus World, and the main camp of the whole Farlier family.
“The Adishesha Castle hasn’t changed but it’s residents have become more and more powerful!”
Leylin chuckled slightly, disappearing in mid-air and instantly arriving in the hall of the castle.
Numerous ceremonial items began to shake and produced the most splendid music. The throne at the centre began to release a black radiance, as if welcoming the arrival of an emperor.
With a flash, Leylin sat on the throne, the upper part of the throne automatically curving to allow Leylin to recline and sit very comfortably.
“Indeed!” Leylin nodded, and then sensed an elated conscient in the hall. This belonged to the emotional undulations of the castle.
With Leylin’s ability, just the powerful radiation that he unwittingly gave off could, within a short period of time, completely modify the Adishesha Castle.
When he had first built it connecting this with his granite mountain, Leylin had also intentionally vitalised the materials of the castle due to his radiation and modifications.
The whole Adishesha Castle had long since become a real ancient Magus castle that did not lose out to the famed ancient Magi castles in the central continent. It had even created a conscient of its own, serving under Leylin.
The whole castle also had all sorts of mysterious abilities and powerful defences.
Without Leylin approval, not even rank 6 Magi can move around flexibly!
Leylin was rather confident of this fact.
“Assemble everyone!” Leylin muttered almost inaudible as he patted the armrest of his seat.
*Clang! Clang!* At the heart of the Adishesha Castle, atop a large black bell tower, a cumbersome python began to move as its head slowly began to emerge and divide into multiple heads, producing hiss sounds that somehow seemed to penetrate through everything.
The heavy hiss of the python resounded in the whole castle as it’s head began to bifurcate from one head to two and continued to do so, causing many Warlocks to watch with their mouths wide open in shock.
“Sev-Seven heads? Seven hiss? This signal…”
A newly advanced Warlock looked stunned, as if he had seen something unthinkable.
“You’re really lucky, kid, that you managed to witness the moment His Majesty the Warlock Emperor leaving his research!” Beside him, his team leader had given him a ruthless shove to his chest, with some desolateness in his voice, “It’s a pity that the central meeting hall is not a place we can go to… Only the enforcers, housekeepers and family members of the Bloodline Emperor have the authority to enter…”
“Enforcers? I’ll reach that point someday! When that happens, I’ll…”
The young Warlock eyes seemed to be ablaze.
*Screech* As they were talking a thunderous shrill shaking the heavens screamed out bearing extreme excited as it reverberated throughout the castle. A flaming giant suddenly appeared in the sky, these guards below immediately bowed with respect as they knew who this was, except for ‘him’ who else has the guts to act so freely in the Adishesha Castle.
“Is that..?”
“Yes, the Leader of the Four Guardian beasts, Vermillion Monarch Lord Angar!” The team leader signed as the young warlock kept his eyes locked on the gorgeous figure in the sky as it disappeared soon.
“Now stop day dreaming and do your job well!” The team leader patted his head and then laughed encouragingly.
…
*Hiss!**Hiss!* *Hiss!**Hiss!**Hiss!**Hiss!**Hiss!*
After the seven heads of the python appeared each producing a hissing snarl, bundles of jade-green flames burnt within the discussion hall.
Every once in a while, figures could be seen coming out from the flames, bowing to Leylin respectfully and then standing by their assigned seat, eyes full of fervour.
Amongst them were obviously people who had yet to have the ability to shift locations easily. However, since this was the Adishesha Castle, this sort of teleportation was not an issue with Leylin personally allowing this, as well as help from the castle itself.
“Father!”
An even larger bundle of green flames burst into a blaze, revealing five Warlocks’ figures.
The leading one was obviously his oldest and most powerful son. He looked somewhat similar to Leylin and slightly inherited Lita’s enticing dark complexion, his long black hair and eyes full of a mysterious charm.
The unique aura of Warlocks hovered about him, giving him a deadly attractiveness. Just a step behind him were his brother and sisters, each being soul searing and envy invoking handsome men and stunning women.
Standing beside them were Leylin wives, dressed like an upper-class woman. Now, however, their eyes concealed unending stream of love, respect, awe, and adulation.
“Lita, Freya, Lancy, Anna, Ivy come!”
Leylin waved them over and got all five of them to sit beside him, accepting the greetings from everyone else.
He was actually thinking previously that these five may also held a bit of unhappiness towards him because of his retreat for such an extended period but he saw that they were very supportive.
Although Leylin have been busy in his research for hundreds of years but usually he would take some time to spend with his loved ones, and it was only when he needed to breakthrough did he not meet them for such a long time.
It was a pity that Leylin couldn’t be with them much, but he always tried to spend as much time as he can without impacting his experiments much, trying to not neglect their feelings and showcase his appreciation for their dedication towards him.
For Leylin, he would choose to spend a bit more time to arrange things for the people he cares about, even if he could not keep staying by their sides.
Although Leylin has the ideology to cherish what he have and also enjoy himself in the moment but before he reached his goal, Leylin would not halt his footsteps.
However, His wives evidently loved him. They did not mind if Leylin couldn’t be with them much and they had to divide him because they understood Leylin ambition and his dedication which left him unable to spend an extended period of time outside of his laboratory.
Now, under the steps were a large number of high-ranked Warlocks aside from his children. They were all Leylin’s housekeepers and enforcers in the castle, and their eyes were filled with fervent zealousness.
It was as if Leylin was a god in their eyes. There was also a few recognizable people in the crowd as well as new faces, because of the Ouroboros clan ruling status in different worlds and region of Magus World, a big part of Leylin forces are divided to take care of things elsewhere, as only a portion remains here and could gather to attend this assembly.
Amongst the crowd the only people of relevance was Emma Freya’s past mentor, Emilia and a red haired energetic youth with flaming eyes which seems to pour out hot magma.
After the burdensome etiquette was done with, Leylin asked a few questions, mostly regarding the latest news of the Ouroboros Clan.
After getting his answers, Leylin was now up to date with the development of the organisation under him.
The Ouroboros Clan had long since gone through a complete transformation. With the limitless benefits from the underground trade and multiple worlds, they not only had control of the Magus World control but was also spreading towards different others.
Even the branch in the central continent was working out well, its reputation there flourishing even more than it had been. Sheshnaag Leylin’s pet companion back in Beast World who was kicked by him away from the comfortable ruling position there hovering at mere Rank 3 without improvement, and pushed to advance through gaining experience in the central continent showcased his worth.
And finally after gaining recognition he has been assigned as the leader of the branch there, a position he acquired through his prowess and ability leaving others with no choice but to accept the reality.
The Farlier Family made rapid progress. His five children namely Kevin, Chris, Aakesh, Renee and Alyssa in the order of seniority had already reached the summit of Surface Magus World showcasing their superior talents. They are the royal prince and princess of the whole Magus World in a sense. Their names, talent and achievement shake the realms.
Two second generation descendants had already grown from his three sons, and there were even a surge of talents from the third and fourth generation descendants.
Of course, many of them were fervently being sought out by many bloodline nobility, but with the surname Farlier added to their existence, it’s tantamount to being Royal bloodline or connected with them which is more than enough to swagger scot free in the whole Magus World.
“Kevin, you did very well with taking charge of the underground trade!”
Leylin apathetically praised Kevin as he watched the other Warlocks below.
