2 A Father’s Love (1/2)
Leon's soul lacked the brilliance it once possessed but his consciousness was still much stronger than what the average person around him would possess.
Having once experienced tribulation, shedding mortality and achieving the Divine, he had retained the ability to dive into the depths of his consciousness and inspect his soul core, which only divine practitioners are capable of performing.
Swimming through a sea of fragmented memories and into the deepest depths of his consciousness, where his soul core resides, Leon froze upon sight. His eyes swelled red as tears threaten to overflow.
At the epicenter of his soul core was one of the 10 heavenly treasure that ever existed in the history of the Divine Realm, the [Divine Book of Life].
Whether its' use to become an unparalleled doctor or its world space to store medicinal plants and all creation have to offer. To a divine practitioner, both are great uses but perhaps, it's greatest use of all has yet to be uncovered.
However, Leon did not care about any of that. The significance of the treasure being in his soul core means that it has fused with his very being, becoming one with him. He's father no longer being the master of the said treasure means his father will never reincarnate like he did.
The separation of the divine book and soul would result in the collapse of the soul's structural integrity, which further leads to true death.
A Divine King is considered a master of samsara. Even if the body dies, so long as the soul remains whole, a Divine King can never truly die.
However, it was different for the young Leon who had just stepped into the Divine, far from the peak.
The death of his body would result in the slow dissipation of his soul without the nourishment of his body. Eventually, true death will still claim.
His father knew and made the ultimate sacrifice, giving up his own life for his and sent him far away from the Divine Realm, where he could be safe and start anew. A father's love is like the mountain, weighing heavily on his heart.
The new world was lacking in spirit energy, the source of divine practice. Compared to the Divine Realm, it could be considered desolate. Perhaps it is impossible for the average person to reach the Divine state, but was he an average person?
Before returning to the Divine Realm to unleash his wrath on his father's enemies, he will not be stumped by any difficulties on his path.
Opening his eyes, Leon did not continue standing in the hallway and decided to leave.
”Hey bro, you just going to leave me like that?” Fatty Ben asked.
Leon paid him no mind and started walking away. However, before he got far, he halted his footsteps as he was struck by an immense headache.
Tapping Leon on the shoulder from the back, Fatty Ben continued, ”As I was saying-.”
Before he could finish talking, Leon had already fallen onto the ground, out cold.
Scratching his head, Fatty Ben was a bit bewildered at how the event unfolded.
It's apparent that his EQ was a bit lacking, but he was not stupid. Fatty Ben brought Leon to the infirmary, albeit difficultly.
…...
An endless stream of memories poured into Leon's soul core, fusing with it, as Leon relived the body's experience in the past 17 years in fast forward motion. The influx of information had put a huge strain on his soul core, causing him enormous pain unlike any fleshly wounds can inflict.
