Since Leylin desires to tear through the astral restrictions and entered another domain for his future path, such a wish cannot be fulfilled easily. Quite in fact, it’s a very tall order to consider because only those who have reached the Everlasting Realm where one is the Magus of Magi, a god amongst gods and nothing in the astral plane could deceive them, would they be able to walk out of the astral plane wilfully, This is realm is none other than Rank 9!

That is what Leylin is pursuing and obviously he is far far away from it but that doesn’t mean there is no other way but despite the possibility of other means it’s almost impossible to have access to such luxury.

In the whole Astral World the amount of beings who can achieve this is rare beyond comprehension. But thankfully for Leylin one such being is someone he had a faint interaction with, The Ancient Wisdom Tree.

The ancient Wisdom Tree would ultimately gave up on rank 9, allowing itself to roam across the universe. Even though its powers were close to that of the Magus Will, it couldn’t intervene in the real world.

The Ancient Wisdom Tree, Magus Will, Overgod of World of God’s these are existence far surpassing the limits of what one can comprehend. Amongst them Leylin has no idea if the other two have a way to breakthrough the astral plane and into the vast universe and even if they did Leylin would have no means to acquire such means, let alone the current him, these existence don’t even need to give face to a peak Rank 8.

Although they are also at that rank but their research and understanding into the space and time law have pushed them far outside the realm of normal Rank 8s, and one must keep in mind that no Magus, God or being who can reach Rank 8 are to be underestimated in the first place.

So, With this conundrum Leylin could only sigh in defeat and accept reality but then a potent idea eventually sprouted in his mind.

The idea to have Wisdom Tree lend him assistance through the Seed Of Wisdom gifted to him! Leylin knows that Wisdom Tree is definitely someone to look upto and a fearsome existence and it might have even calculated the trajectory of Leylin previous plans but even still out of its own volition it’s gifted Leylin the Seed Of Wisdom after answering his question about the the path of God’s.

Leylin has always treated the Seed Of Wisdom as a sacrifice for the Purgatory World until he got his hands of «Hands of Hades» which completely reshaped his plans, and only after the feasibility of the newly formed idea was proven did Leylin decide to use Seed Of Wisdom in a more sophisticated and daring manner.

The Wisdom Tree’s will had surpassed the shackles of the astral plane, entering another region outside it. If he wants he can help Leylin detect another universe nearby, but obviously there is a huge distinction of ‘if’ he wants.

It is a great risk but Leylin choose to capitalize, at worst he would just lose a clone and although the injury to his truesoul would be troublesome but with his Law of Primordial Chaos which excels at regeneration and healing, he would recover eventually after a period of slumber. With the back up of World of God’s already in his pockets Leylin decided to let his fate, an ancient wisdom and his hardworking decide the course of his future.

….

Inside Leylin underground laboratory,

In Leylin’s mind, the truesoul splitting technique he had gained from Melinda, the method to maintain control over a truesoul clone that he had obtained from Ignox and many other techniques he acquired, research and modified were already being broken up and re-organised to form an even more complex and profound body.

The mysteries of the truesoul began to unveil itself before Leylin, allowing Leylin to touch on the truth of the world on a deeper level.

Universe and truesoul, macroscopic and microscopic, matter and conscient… At the very heart of it, everything mysteriously has its similarities.

Leylin looked intoxicated as he licked his lips in excitement.

In front of him, dazzling starlight fused into one body, yet its form seemed to be constantly changing.

From the outside, its seemed to be an irregular spheroid formed of starlight. There were scenes of the explosion of the universe and shrinking of the black hole, which then gradually formed into a human figure.

[Beep! Completion of Rank 7 spell— Astral Sentient Reincarnation. Referenced material: ‘Soul Splitting Technique’, ‘How to control your soul— Enoja’, ‘Spirit search of Cosmos’, ‘Exploring the mysteries of the world’, ‘Antique Lightning Rune’, ‘Adjoin Devour System’, ‘Truesoul concealment— Basics for Demons’]

The A.I. Chip’s prompt sounded, followed by an even more detailed introduction to the spell.

[Astral Sentient Reincarnation. Rank 7 spell. Ability to split the truesoul of the main body and project the body to another world or outside the boundaries of the plane to be reincarnated. The main body will have absolute control over the truesoul clone and synchronise completely with the world origin force’s frequency, getting treatment as a native would. As a fragment of the soul, the clone would posses ‘modified power of Innate Sentient Force Skill—Sentient Absorb’]

In the Magus World’s history, there were few rank 7 spells, and much less spell models to record them.

This was because the existences of laws, after reaching rank 7, could make use magic at its source and bypass the process of using the spell model.

Besides, spells at rank 7 and above usually needed the corresponding power of laws as the basis, and had no properties that allowed it to be used widespread.

The spell formation that Leylin had specially developed was much different from the original soul splitting technique, it even included the vastness and might of his terrific law.

It can be said that this ‘Astral Sentient Reincarnation’ is actually a new method of traversing to another world. If used on an ordinary person, it would still have the same effect.

Leylin’s lips quirked up into a smile. His rank 7 spell not only made use of the intelligence of Melinda and Ignox, but also included what he felt was important along with a gift he included for faster growth of the clone.

Amongst this was the A.I. Chip’s simulation analytical skills as well as the transformation by the world origin will.

In his reincarnation spell, the truesoul had to go through a transformation by the world origin force. Hence, the clone that successfully descended into the whatever world it reaches would be accepted by it no different from a native, and even law beings would not notice.

Only with these would his clone have enough space and time to develop without worrying excessively.

Of course, because the clone had abandoned all its original strength and lacked any power from the main body, the clone would start off in the weakest state. But in this regards, Leylin is better than anyone else because not only does he have his A. I. Chip but also his innate sentient force powers which with his current realm of understanding would be much more easier to wield and make use of after reincarnation.

Along with Leylin’s truesoul memories, the clone would definitely grow quickly and then begin to pry open the secrets outside of the the domains of the astral plane.

But it was only after reaching the realm of the law beings and synchronising with the world origin force that the clone would possibly coordinate with the main body, in order to break through the barrier of the worlds or astral boundaries in his case.

Even still, Leylin can’t be sure of his success completely, because going outside he might have the help of Wisdom Tree but, getting inside in order to combine the two parts of his soul even with the combined powers of the main body and clone would be very difficult.

Leylin don’t have any idea as to what awaits him, he don’t even know what are exactly the astral boundaries and if there really is any barrier there, or it’s just that no one can access it. These are all question which would be answered in his journey later but Leylin has a certain confidence that it would not be necessary to be a Rank 9 to interchange planes but it’s just that it would be very dangerous.

From his own initial research and calculations, Leylin found the astral plane to be infinitely vast but he knows that this finding is only the result of his lack of sphere of understanding which cannot enclose the marvel and length of this plane, this was his research till his breakthrough to half a step Rank 7 but afterwards especially when he properly reached Rank 7, his A. I. Chip also gained an upgrade and calculated a few theories and hypothesis in this subject.

Leylin invested hundred of years of his research time to formulate a few cosmic theories which were later justified slightly by some preexisting research in the matter by past supreme Magus astrologists.

Astral plane is quite in fact seem to be divided from other similarly adjacent cosmic planes with an envelope of chaotic space boundaries which makes it impossible for even a normal law beings to cross it, according to estimation not even peak Rank 8 can hope to clash against such a disturbing mighty turbulence of the astral boundaries and hope to survive.

And if that’s the case, then how do one cross it. The first and straight forward method is to reach Rank 9 completely surpassing the limits of astral plane, but that rank is what all this fuss is about so, it’s impossible for now.

The other way is to search for space nodes appearing during the clash of spatial turbulence, this space node would theoretically have a lesser strain and could allow for transverse but then again, it would require a certain grasp of space and time law however miniscule it may be, from accomplish the sensing, registration and distinction of these space nodes.

This is the reason why Leylin thinks that only Magus Will, Overgod and Wisdom Tree may achieve the feat of going outside this plane in theory, but even among them only Wisdom Tree is both a reliable and viable answer because not only would this feat require ridiculous requirements of strength, prowess and law but also unbelievable difficulties of calculations which only some like Wisdom Tree, the cumulation of Wisdom might accomplish, because not even with the ridiculous high scanning and calculating powers of the current A. I. Chip inside a Rank 7 Warlock like Leylin is sure to achieve this feat.

“The theoretical and practical experiments for these have been completed. What’s next is to put everything into practice…”

Leylin looked very grim. Neither the splitting of his truesoul and reincarnating outside the astral plane were simple tasks. In this plan, even if everything goes right and Seed Of Wisdom is indeed useful but still the rest of the journey is equally difficult.

Even with Leylin’s rank 7 body of laws, he had to treat this very seriously.

“So after centuries of planning, I’ve finally reached this point?”Leylin’s eyes were filled with emotion. All his memories flashed before his eyes, from starting off as an ordinary little noble that developed into a being filled with fear in the Magus World, to his memories of glory and splendour afterwards.

Leylin’s mind lingered with the mysteries and vastness of magic, the glory and mystery of the his journey, as well as the limitless strength system and the supreme truth.

Now, he was completely rising above the path that the ancient Magi had walked, entering the vast world of unknown in order to search for the origin or to meet his end.

The slight wavering in his emotions was suppressed by him in the blink of an eye.

Soon, his eyes went back to a state that was impervious to desires and passions.

Leylin arrived in the astral laboratory. Here, an astral gate exactly the same as before had been rebuilt.

The large stone gates and the strange, simple patterns seemed to be narrating some ancient and great history.

“Manderhawke Plate!” Leylin’s right hand flickered with light, and a round stone plate appeared. Based on the data from the previous experiment and live demonstration against the crystal wall, Leylin modified it further and made an imitation Manderhawke Plate with the addition of some other materials!

Leylin’s eyes flashed as the A.I. Chip’s robotic voice sounded.

[Manhark Plate (Imitation). Weight: 3852g. Effect: Weaken world(rejection) force, makes it convenient for transmission of energy. This is an imitation, made from the Manhark Plate Beezlebub possesses. Holds 76.5% of power of the original. Maker: Leylin Farlier.]

“Mm! The wait has definitely been worth the while, Compared to the previous inferior versions which only had 20 – 30% the effects of the original, this imitation is evidently more powerful. It should help the plan work more smoothly…”

Leylin touched his chin, suddenly looking resolute, “Let’s begin!”

*Rumble!* An abyssal misty, malevolent sun hidden within holy light radiating from the edges slowly appeared from behind him.

This was a projection of Leylin’s truesoul, representing a rank 7 Warlock. This was the strength of the highest quality soul! And even among the Rank 7s, Leylin soul is extremely special because of his sturdy foundation, repeated strengthening by his innate skill and also the radiation of his extremely potent law powers. There is also the wildly beating Placenta of Purgatory in the centre of his sea of consciousness bounded of seals, and it also nourished his soul extremely well.

The black devouring and white blazing soul flames that appeared physical wreaked havoc in the laboratory. Besides the astral gate, everything was incinerated into nothing.

“Step first,… the multi-splitting of the truesoul!”

Leylin looked incomparably grave. Based on the technique to split the truesoul into two, a powerful tearing force entered his point mass but imposingly and astonishingly enough Leylin isn’t just splitting it into two but rather three!

At the heart of the point mass, which was where a Magus’ soul and strength gathered, the rank 7 truesoul began to tremble abruptly.

Pain! The intense pain of tearing one’s soul apart! Leylin bore the sudden attack, which made him turn pale with cold sweat running down profusely.

At his back, his truesoul quivered, and even the Adishesha appeared, producing hisses of misery, howling with pain and suffering with a ferocious expression.

“Hah! Split!”

Leylin looked extremely malicious, as if a devil from hell. With his yell, two white streak of electricity fell, striking the figure behind him.

*Crash!*

The Brackish White sun with an abyssal chaos breath was split into three an instant, forming three truesouls, one larger than the other two.

“Ugh—” At the moment his truesoul was split, Leylin’s mind went completely blank, and his eyes were filled with confusion.

“I think I underestimated the pressure and danger of soul splitting…”

Once he completely regained his senses, he forced a smile as he sensed the terrifying injuries to his truesoul.

“Just breaking off a small part of my truesoul is already so terrifying…”

Leylin gazed at the three irregular truesouls. While they had both turned into black and white flaming suns, the physically larger one was obviously tens of times bigger than the two smaller truesoul.
