Prime Originator

Chapter 542 - Into The Dreamworld

In the mesosphere layer, time quickly flew by.

By the time Leon became aware of his surroundings, the world had reached the peak of nighttime, dropping the temperature below freezing point

Frigid winds billowed and battered against Leon's formless barrier while Wrathful Demonic Energy and burning hot temperatures of the day had seemingly all disappeared.

It was like the Cataclysm had never erupted, but in truth, it was just the darkness of the night obscuring everything.

"I should check on the situation below…" Leon mused after he had completely understood the [Soul Dive] technique.

It was a special method of manipulating spiritual senses to inject one's consciousness into the deep consciousness of others.

In his case, it was the manipulation of his divine sense. Divine sense was also a type of spiritual sense, except it is far superior to ordinary spiritual senses.

"Still, I never knew spiritual senses could be used like this…" Leon muttered.

He had always used divine sense in a simple manner, projecting it outward to understand his surroundings.

However, the [Soul Dive] technique required him to condense his divine sense after it is projected outward.

"Now that all preparations are done, I shouldn't waste any more time. The longer it takes to treat Duna and Lumi, the greater chances of unexpected variables coming into play…" Leon pondered.

After checking the surroundings, Leon shortly entered the Worldspace with his true body, leaving nothing behind except a vague book that can only be subtle felt of its existence and not be seen.

Bound to Leon's soul core, the [Divine Book of Life] existed in a different dimension that runs parallel with reality.

Inside the Worldspace, Maya immediately jumped upon seeing Leon's appearance and hissed at him dangerously.

"No need to be alarmed. I won't be dumping anymore Wrathful Demonic Energy into the [Universal Life Conversion Array] for now," Leon chuckled lightly.

"For now…"

Maya picked up the specific words from his mouth. After hearing that, she did not dare to relax and continued to glare at Leon observantly.

"I'm watching you!" She spat.

Leon shrugged nonchalantly.

Shortly after, he made his way over to the ice bed within the small Yin-biome where the slumbering Duna and Lumi's body was placed.

Leon placed at their peacefully sleeping face briefly before sitting down beside the ice bed and closed his eyes in meditation.

Waves of divine sense quickly gushed out from his body before they congregated towards a single point and condensed themselves, forming a miniature avatar of Leon.

There was a reason why Leon had never attempted to condense his divine sense before.

Not only was it self-restricting in scanning the area, but it was also dangerous and put Leon in a vulnerable state.

Leon's soul core would only be hurt slightly, akin to a jolt in the head if his divine sense was in their widespread state.

However, if his divine sense was attacked in their condensed state, his soul core would suffer so badly he might just turn into a vegetative person.

After all, the condensed state of divine sense was akin to the soul leaving the body.

Nevertheless, the Worldspace was completely safe to carry out the [Soul Dive] technique. It was his holy land. No one can attack him here.

"Let me see what you are dreaming about in your slumber…" Leon muttered shortly after the spiritual avatar was condensed from his divine sense.

His complete consciousness was transferred to the spiritual avatar before he slipped into Duna and Lumi's body, heading straight for their soul core.

Once his spiritual avatar contacted Duna and Lumi's soul core, his consciousness's sense of sight turned into complete darkness like he was sailing through the void for a period of time before he eventually saw the light.

The light expanded rapidly and encompassed his entire vision.

Before Leon knew it, he had already entered the world of dreams that existed within Duna and Lumi's consciousness.

Shortly after, he realized his spiritual avatar was floating in the skies.

"This is…"

Leon subconsciously gazed down at the surface before realizing he was in the sky with his spiritual avatar.

"This is the Capital…?" He muttered.

There was something different about the Capital before him. It was not the same Capital he recognized in his memory.

No, the Capital before him appeared to be in its earlier development stages after the city was founded.

"If I recall correctly, Lumi became a vengeful spirit over 400 years ago. Does that mean this is what the Capital looks like in the early year 100s of the Human Restoration Era?" Leon contemplated.

The early year 100s of the Human Restoration Era was a period after the Hero King Aldrich passed on his throne to his son before vanishing from the face of the earth.

At that moment, the skies were dark, and lights could be seen brightly lit all over the Upper District. Comparatively, the Lower District was much darker and almost swallowed in complete darkness.

"I wonder what the specific year is…" Leon wondered before his spiritual avatar descended towards the Capital below.

Shortly after his feet landed on solid ground, his gaze shifted around at the hustle-bustle of the Upper District's nightlife.

Numerous aristocrats and nobles chattered and laughed as they walked past Leon, while some even phased through his spiritual avatar before they continued on with their business.

No one seemed to have taken notice of Leon's presence.

This is because he did not exist in this time period, or more specifically, he did not exist in this world that seemed to be a reconstruction of the past from Lumi's memories.

"Since I am taken here in this specific time and place, Lumi should also be hidden somewhere around here… I should start looking for her," Leon contemplated.

However, after a few steps, he suddenly paused.

"This is a good chance to learn about Lumi's past and deepen my understanding of the special relationship that is shared between Lumi and Duna…" Leon thought.

If he finds Lumi, would he also find Duna? Or just Lumi alone? In that case, where would Duna be? And how did she come to share Lumi's body?

These were questions worth looking into.
