Leylin sat on the ground, with a solemn expression on his face. He withdraw a messy pile of spiritual force crystals and tube of golden blood emitting terrifying energy waves. For this breakthrough Leylin ultimately decided to not use the Lamia Fingerbone

Th milky-white fingerbone inside his Magus Tower has gained a few narrow cracks on it. Leylin ultimately decided to not utilize it because he doesn't have much need for it, Leylin by himself is at the Peak of Crystal Phase.

So far, Lamia Fingerbone has been used by both him and Lita throughout the years, although the effects on him are much less due to his already extremely high bloodline purity and also his deviation from the Gaint Kemoyin Serpent path.

By now the treasure has only one last use for him personally, which is it's stimulation and slight advantage into Morning Star Magus rank but it's more appropriate to keep it stashed for now. Leylin could at most gain a bit of push from the Lamia Fingerbone, and does Leylin Farlier need a push? He with the sentient force help he could achieve what others could only dream! For Leylin the treasure has more value being unused by him.

The road to the Morning Star is vast and long. Many Crystal Phase Magi do not even have the chance to come into contact with this bottleneck. Leylin has seen a clear road ahead of himself but same couldn't he said for Lita, Leylin has great expectations from her for the future. The help from the Fingerbone could be great for her. After reaching Rank 4, subordinates at lower rank have very limited use for him.

Leylin has firmly advanced to the Peak Crystal Phase long ago, and he was thinking of breaking through to Morning Star. Although this speed is very abnormal for others, if nothing else than Leylin would say he waited much too long.

Leylin has a lot of cards in his hand and abundant knowledge, so much so that even some Morning Star Magi could only wish for it.

"A.I. Chip, report my current condition!"

[Beep! Leylin Farlier. Rank 3 Warlock(Crystal Phase), Bloodline: The Seven Bloodline (fused 100%)and Giant Kemoyin Serpent (merged 88%). Nascent Knight. Strength: 50.1, Agility: 45.1, Vitality: 66.1, Spiritual force: 393.2, Magic power: 393 (Magic power is in synchronisation with spiritual force).]

The A.I. Chip replied loyally.

After making use of his gains from the Spirit Mark World, his unification sped up and reached 100%, this wasn't a big shocker as this was bound to happen sooner or later, the spirit mark race techniques only amplified it and shorten the time span, while his merging reached an unprecedented 88%, this compared to previous 63% is just unbelievable.

Now, Leylin could finally attempt at stabilizing his bloodline and be reborn as the one and only of his kind, standing in a completely different class of himself.

Rank 3 spiritual force varies from 200 to 400. The first threshold for advancing to the Morning Star realm is for it to reach a critical value, filling up the entire sea of consciousness.

Because the A.I. Chip had already deduced the information about the Morning Star realm, Leylin currently had no doubts as to his path.

Many times, the crucial reason for failure in advancing was exactly a lack of knowledge about the path to Morning Star, as well as the handling of the many real-life problems during the promotion. This wasn't a trouble for Leylin courtesy of the information gained from Beast world, the A.I. Chip's deductions on the Morning Star realm happened to make up for this, clearing any remaining confusions that Leylin had.

"My spiritual force is at the peak of Crystal Phase. It's critical value. I technically don't need the help of bloodline ignition but it's better to be safe than sorry." Leylin picked up the test tube which was filled with golden blood. Leylin could try to advance regardless of this but he gives great emphasis on his success and as such he won't tolerate any arrogance and mishap butchering his chance for silly over confidence.

The test tube was obviously the bloodline of the ancient red dragon, obtained by a group of his later dispatched subordinates from the Kobold Warlocks of the Forgotten Land. It was extremely pure, and Leylin has some use of it for the future as well.

The bloodline ignition experiment, as its name implies, was conducted by burning various kinds of bloodlines to strengthen one's own power.

Its requirements towards the bloodline was very strict. One had to be a Warlock in order to conduct it, and the grade of the bloodline that was to be burnt could not be too low. If not, the entire experiment would not succeed and could even backfire. The bloodline of the ancient red dragon fulfilled this requirement perfectly.

As for the supplementary resource for the experiment, it was a Crystal Phase Magus' spiritual force crystals! Only the spiritual force fire produced by such crystals could completely burn the ancient bloodline, and convert it into energy that would serve as the driving force for the Warlock's advancement.

A complicated, detailed spell formation was already drawn on the surface of the ground. Leylin inlaid the many spiritual force crystals one by one in an orderly manner, filling up the spell formation quickly.

The spiritual force crystal of a Crystal Phase Magus was a top-grade resource in many social circles. It could even be used as a currency on its own and was of high worth.

But now, a large amount of spiritual force crystals were laid on the ground as if they were worthless, radiating a pure, sparkling light. This has been his gain acquired by all of his capable subordinates throughout these hundred years. Leylin knows how to maximize his helpers utility, while he absorbed himself in experiment all the time, he can leave the gathering of resources to his vassals which eases him greatly.

The marks of the original owners of these crystals had naturally been erased by Leylin.

The ancient red dragon bloodline is preceded only by that of the Sun's child which isn't in Leylin possession as of yet. It's an extremely powerful bloodline that can at least reach rank 5! It could tempt many people and if Leylin didn't have his bloodline almost completely merged and unified he would have given this a shot as well. Lucky Leylin gains in the Beast World was exceedingly plenty and his bloodline become something so powerful that he wasn't a bit envious of the ancient red dragon bloodline.

Leylin smiled, taking off his Magus robe. He then smeared the golden blood all over his body, without missing a spot.

The golden blood felt viscous to the touch, and smelt like orchids. It was cool to the touch at first, but soon became boiling hot.

At the same time, a translucent flame rose from the spell formation below Leylin's body.

Streaks of crystal-clear light were pulled out of the many spiritual force crystals like threads. They then converged at a point, forming a translucent flame comprised of spiritual force!

Once the innate spell had been completed, his entire sea of consciousness started to tremble.

Boundless rays of lights started to radiate from the centre of his sea of consciousness. The four layers of intricate runes started to bind together in a picturesque order, much like a piece of artwork.

Once the centremost part was filled up, the entire crystal started to shake violently, strengthening tremendously within seconds and the immense pressure that was present previously had disappeared.

Leylin observed the rune that was a combination of all his innate runes, his innate ability as well as his bloodline. It represented all of his achievements so far, and hence he commanded the A.I. Chip to record it down.

Perfection! The first impression this rune would leave on a person was that of perfection!

A gigantic rune was created by the combination of these small runes, which cirulated continuously and looked pretty much 3D. Regardless of how one looked at it, it was flawless.

"This is it! This is the collection of all my achievement and gains!" Leylin mumbled. At this very moment, he was almost moved to tears.

*Rustle!* Once the four layers perfectly crystallized, they started to crumble inwards, shrinking to a point that rapidly started revolving. Much like a black hole, it started to suck in everything in its surroundings.

Suddenly, Leylin felt a strange current run through his body as he felt the meridian points collapsed in itself and his dantain which become a center for his sentient force breaking out and coagulating with his point mass creation.

The spiritual force crystals inside his sea of consciousness started to shrink as they got sucked into the black hole.

[Beep! Meridian destroyed, Body transformation under progress, Dantain merging with Point Mass. Proceed the guidelines.]

"Yes!" Leylin gritted his teeth from the immense pain as if his body was ripping apart. He commanded because he didn't have much time, this wasn't a circumstances out of his calculations but the process is much more severe and painful than expected.

[Initiating the construction of point mass. Guidelines activated! ] the A.I. Chip reported.

Leylin, too, started to construct his personal point mass according to his understanding and the information from his A.I. Chip. There was too much on the line and he could only proceed now, there is no backing down.

"Thankfully I was careful and I used the bloodline ignition, otherwise I would be too exhausted to go through to the end." Leylin guided the point mass, as it's creation is much more rigorous than what a normal Magus go through. This not only include his Knight's strength, Bloodline and Magus path but also the unique and mysterious Sentient force.

*Boom!* An immense suction force could be felt coming from the mass point of the spiritual force. Not only were the spiritual force crystals sucked in, even the sea of consciousness was broken through and more energy, flesh and soul aura were pulled in.

*Slap!* Leylin's consciousness suddenly blurred. Time seemed to pass extremely slowly, and at times it felt like eternity was squeezed into an instant.

It took the sounds of glass shattering for Leylin to wake up again.

This time, his sea of consciousness felt empty. There was a dim light shining at the centre of the core, the result of shrinking the spiritual force a million times over such that the nucelus core's density and purity had reached an remarkable level. This was the point mass of a Morning Star Magus!

The source of the light shook, and the purified energy of the Morning Star realm, the energy of the point mass that was also known as soul force, started to leak out into the entirety of Leylin's body.

At that point, he had entered the Morning Star realm!

[Beep! Host's modified Kemoyin's Pupil meditation technique has advanced to the fourth level. Host has advanced to rank 4!]

A savage energy released from Leylin's body as myriad magnitude of magnificent power sued destruction around the whole structure. The skies seem to shake and the ground collapsed, A tremors was radiated unveiled with its unbridled prowess.

Leylin radiated unbelievable amount of power as his raw strength exploded breaking all of his aura isolation arrangements.

Inside his point mass, savage rumble of mighty dragon sounded with lightning crackling and crushing, roars of tiger were released with severe uncontrollable storm wrecking havoc, A shrill high pitched screech sounded as crimson fire ablaze and a disdainful snicker ranged as tsunami of crashing water whirled.

Among all this an indifferent and majestic Furyans Bahamut Apocalyptic Jrmungandr-like Immemorial Ancient Serpent opened its dark abyss like eyes, which could suck all the life force of the world and silenced everyone with its regal presence like a Lord of Bloodline.

"The world shall bear witness to the birth of Immortal Bloodline Demon, Adhishesha Leylin Farlier." Leylin roared as excitement began settle in and he grew accustomed to the changes in himself and the leap in his strength.

The A.I. Chip sounded out.

[Host's spiritual force has undergone a qualitative change. Data is inaccurate, recalculating]

It was a long time for the new data to go up.

[Beep! Leylin Farlier. Rank 4 Warlock, Bloodline: Adhishesha. Strength: 74.6, Agility: 60.8, Vitality: 129.7, Spiritual force: 783.2, Magic power: 783 (Magic power is in synchronisation with spiritual force). Soul Force: ???] [Due to a lack of information about soul force, it is currently not possible to calculate stats.]
