GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1284 Against All Odds.

Billions of souls have been shackled to her wagon. They toil day and night for her. They are immortal as long as she is alive but that's only because she wants them to work for her for all of eternity.

This spirit filament movement technique is just one of the many techniques that she knows. She knows a lot more dangerous techniques that he doesn't want to experience at all. It is something to be expected from an entity that has had billions of years to hone its craft.

He considered her a threat when he was ignorant about what type of being she was but now he knows that she is capable of ending Legion's mission to achieve perfection. If they aren't immortal already then they would be doomed just because they encountered her.

She is also a being who is trying to achieve a great mission. The little he knows about her makes him impressed with her but she is not satisfied with it. She wants more for the ultimate aim of getting out of the spiritual dimension.

This world that he was pulled into is called the spiritual dimension. He knows how to leave this world now. He just needs to be strong enough. When his soul force reaches the strength of an Origin god with a supreme law, then he will be able to leave.

He can also wait for other clones to come and get him but he won't rely entirely on them. There are ways to grow stronger in this dead dimension and become something as powerful as the great mother.

"I just have to avoid her and grow stronger. I will be able to leave then. The problem of the rejection of the void universe is another matter. I will deal with it when it comes to that point."

He has made his plans for both the short term and the long term. The short-term is not a big problem for him anymore. The information he just acquired has given him a path forward. He knows what to do to grow stronger.

The long term on the other hand is still quite problematic. The major issue is that the spiritual dimension is a prison. The barrier blocking his path is not there to weed out weak spiritual entities. It is actually there to lock everyone into the spiritual dimension. But strong spiritual entities can break free from the prison.

The great mother calls the spiritual dimension the soul digestion tract of the void universe. Souls come here when they die. Everyone who dies comes here including the Origin gods.

Origin gods can leave. That's how they resurrect. They are the only ones that can leave but they are not aware when they come here so no one knows about the digestion tract.

As for other souls, they are broken down by the grey water and digested by the void universe. Most souls that come here come as fragments. After all, the reason why they died in the world of manifestation is because they were destroyed and their consciousness fractured. So most souls aren't conscious at all when they come here and are digested peacefully without resistance.

But some soul fragments have enough obsessions to keep them awake. It is a very difficult requirement to meet because the souls were fragmented from the complete souls that were killed. After all, if they couldn't maintain their consciousness when they were complete, it is nearly impossible for them to maintain it when they become fragmented.

These special soul fragments with great obsessions do more than maintain awareness. They don't want to die so they resist the dissolution of the grey water. This resistance is futile most of the time. A complete but exposed soul can't even survive in the physical world where there is no grey water actively trying to break it down. So a fragmented soul exposed to the corrosion of the grey water has next to no chance of survival. But some of them manage this nearly impossible feat.

Some of them manage to grow stronger despite the strong digestive power of the grey water by absorbing other soul fragments. They become soul prowlers who feed on other soul fragments to survive. But they run mad when they become polluted by the memories of the other souls they are. They lose their obsession and survival instincts and are eventually digested by the spiritual dimension when they lose their will to resist.

In very rare situations, an entity with a divine ability related to souls finds a way to circumvent the problem of madness. They are able to grow stronger without limits. Some of them become beings like the great mother. If they become strong enough, they can even break the barrier imprisoning them here.

So the situation is not entirely hopeless. Any soul that manages to overcome the odds can leave. But the void universe won't allow it to occur. No soul that enters the spiritual dimension can return to the void universe unless they are complete Origin gods. Anything else that manages to escape will be attacked and swiftly destroyed in the outside world.

The great mother is in a tricky situation because of the animosity of the void universe. She is strong enough to leave the spiritual dimension but she can't survive in the void universe because the void universe will try and most definitely succeed in killing her so she has to stay here and suffer under the constant digestion of the spiritual dimensions. She has to continue growing or die. And it is all for nothing because there is no end to the struggle to live in sight.

But that didn't stop her forever. She found a way to project herself into the void universe through soul fragments. She managed to make the soul fragments acceptable to the void universe too so they were not destroyed.

Legion-7 doesn't know how exactly she did it. But he does know that it has something to do with the red flames of rebirth and how the whole Phoenix race was formed. In fact, it is more accurate to call her the entire Phoenix race.
