Reincarnated as a World

Ch.207 Soul Cultivation

Gaia funnelled her Divine Soul Essence directly into Aeshma’s Soul, something that would have immediately initiated a strong backlash if he were conscious but only caused minor rejections now. Actually, the Soul was so complex that even such minor rejections would have caused the plans of most people to fail, but she was not normal at all. At the peak of her previous life she had reached the 48th Stage in Soul Cultivation.

Such a cultivation was enough to classify her as a peerless genius in most of the Lolay Galaxy, not that she let that fact be known to the public, because that would have resulted in her being coveted to the point of having no choice but to sell her loyalty.

Not that that was an entirely bad idea, after all, if she sold her loyalty to the Kong Eternal Family then she would have been able to obtain access to special Soul Techniques that weren’t accessible to the public, preventing her previous situation of having a high Soul Cultivation but having almost no Soul Techniques to efficiently utilise it, and granting her a brighter future. She might have even been able to secure at least a pseudo protection for the Sigothia World, which was a wonderful idea.

But the plan had flaws and the few risks involved possessed lethal consequences.

There were all kinds of strange techniques and abilities all over the universe and the ability to steal someone’s cultivation could be considered elementary level amongst them. If the Kong Family had the ability to steal her Soul Cultivation, the chances that they would choose to do so weren’t low at all. They didn’t become the strongest family in the galaxy by playing nice with everyone, and they could be just as ruthless as anyone else.

Gaia couldn’t help but think of these thoughts as she shaped her Divine Soul Essence into the unique sigil that was shown in the Limitless Soul Brand technique.

Soul Cultivation was very similar to Anatomy Refinement in the way that they both had no established Realms, only endless Stages (with the same big boost being gained every multiple of 10), and made the Soul stronger in the same way that Anatomy Refinement made the body stronger. But different from Anatomy Refinement was that not only was Soul Refinement much harder to accomplish, but there were also different types of Soul energies that could fuel it, similar to Essence Cultivation.

In Essence Cultivation, Mana could be formed by all kinds of energies, including Law Essence, with each having their own pros and cons. Similarly, Soul Cultivation, or to be more specific, the very Soul itself, could be fueled by different types of Soul energy. Only, there weren’t nearly as many choices to pick from as there were in Essence Cultivation.

Mental Energy was the most basic Soul energy, her Soul Cultivation was powered by this energy in her past life. But there were others like Spirit Essence that was mostly exclusive to entities like Spirits and Ghosts, Matrix Energy that was generated by extremely unique techniques that converted knowledge, especially that of the mathematical kind, into unique soul energy, Magic Soul Essence which was a sort of fusion essence caused by a special synergy between Soul and Mana- this, she was now learning was what Aeshma currently had; his Soul having the same ruthless properties as his Mana. Divine Soul Essence which was what she and other gods had, and the most spectacular of them all, Primordial Essence.

Not much was known about Primordial Essence, and although she had run into a few people that owned it, even getting a feel of it herself from their soul undulations (which was why that she could identity that it was somebody’s Primordial Essence that had aided her in converting her previous Laws of Destruction into Laws of Creation), they were all lofty figures that she did not have the hopes of prying information from.

In any case, with her new Divine Soul Essence and past life experience, her Soul Cultivation was bound to experience nothing but success in this life. In fact, despite the fact that she was cultivating all 3 paths of Cultivation, her Soul Cultivation was already in the 11th Stage, which was a phenomenal feat!

And although Aeshma possessed the illustrious Magic Soul Essence which was on the same level as Divine Soul Essence, or even above (depending on the affiliated mana type), he was only in the 1st Stage of Soul Cultivation. Nothing compared to her.

She weaved the last bits of the Soul Brand into his Soul- which she had also noticed was growing in tandem with his body, and sighed breath of relief. She took a step back to marvel at her work but couldn’t help being distracted by the growing size of his Soul.

Soul size was another aspect of the Soul that could aid its cultivation, and a bigger size was equivalent to having a greater foundation, but although it also had the useful feature of increasing the max amount of Soul Essence, it had the universal flipside of increasing the amount of Soul Essence needed to upgrade the Soul. But still, most people including her believed that the bigger the Soul the better, so she was a little envious of Aeshma’s current condition, but only a little. The price he was paying for this was too big.

Gaia sighed, feeling sorry for Aeshma’s condition.

In any case, what was done was done. She could only hope to prevent the same thing from occurring to anyone else and making sure that kept Aeshma in control. Perhaps one day he would recover his mind, and she would do almost anything to aid the process if that were possible.

Taking one last look at the Soul Brand and pushing away the small strand of pride that tried to rise in her heart, she withdrew her Divine Soul Essence.

Immortals and gods all possessed ridiculous amounts of comprehension, so as long as a technique was explained with the sole purpose of teaching and not trying to hide in a sea of riddles, most immortals/gods would be able to perform the technique on the first go, which was what she had just done, so it wasn’t anything to really boast about.

But still, to perform a technique created by Limitless Soul The Almighty on the first go? Hehe, she actually had to suppress her emotions from falling into giddiness despite the grim situation. The technique was extremely straightforward and could be learnt by any other immortal or god just as easily, but still! A Limitless Soul Technique! Limitless you hear?! Limitless!!!
