GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Origin gods have shown that it is possible to get immortality through the fusion of their existence with their Origin. Their use of Origin essence to fuse their Origin with their existence has proven that true immortality through the fusion of his spark of consciousness, soul Imprints, and Origin is also possible for him.

"I will call it the theory of the immortality of consciousness. It will be the first step for Legion to acquire complete, independent, and total immortality."

The theory of the immortality of consciousness will be the foundation of the independent resurrection system that he wants to create for Legion.

He will use his ability to wield and manipulate psychic engrams to save the psychic engrams of the other clones within his spark of consciousness. That way, if they die, he can always restore their psychic engrams into new bodies.

It is a good idea but he knows that the theory of immortality is currently lacking compared to the immortality of origin gods. As it is, it can only ensure the immortality of the consciousness and at most, the immortality of the soul.

It is not the immortality of the body, soul, and concept of Origin gods. If his theory is achieved, Legion will become immune to death, but they will lose all their powers and abilities if they die.

"The situation is not entirely hopeless. As long as I can also save their cultivation and concept within myself, I will be able to restore their power after their death. If that doesn't work now, then it should work when we create our Supreme laws."

He is already thinking of the solution to the weakness of the theory of the immortality of consciousness. The best and easiest solution is that he also saves the concept, divine ability, or power of the clones when making backups of their psychic engrams. But he can't be sure it will work unless he tries it.

He even has a second solution that he is sure will work. Origin gods have their advantage because of the help of the void universe. As long as Legion's consciousness becomes supreme through the creation of a supreme law. Then all their powers and abilities will be contained in their consciousness and will be based on their Will. They won't need a body or a soul anymore.

"In fact, at most, I should be able to save their abilities and even wield it when they become Origin gods. At that point, their concepts should be part of their psychic engrams. But that is for the future."

"I must say that it is a bright future. This step is the first step towards acquiring perfection. After all, a perfect being should not be killable. At least not permanently. But what can I achieve with what I already have? Can I defeat my greatest enemy now?"

He decided to test his current power the best way that he could. He exposed himself to the law matrix, his greatest enemy. The law matrix reacted swiftly. Lightning descended with a renewed determination to kill him.

The sight of the lightning storm that appeared suddenly scared Legion-7. He rushed back to hide in Malekite's body as lightning bolts struck him from every direction.

It was not until he was back in Malekite's divine body that the lightning stopped chasing after him. The storm disappeared but his mood was gloomy. If he had teeth, he would chewed through it right now.

"So my evolution has not made the void universe tolerant of me. It still wants to kill me."

Then he observed painfully to himself. "The evolution has surely not made me immune to lightning. In fact, it is more painful now that there is no difference between my cocoon of grafted soul fragments and myself. What good is my evolution then?"

He is seething and moody. He expected a nice change now that he has evolved so his disappointment hit him with a big blow.

"Maybe I was expecting too much. The great mother has also evolved but she is not allowed in the world of manifestation. Besides, there's a little good news. My improved soul force has reduced my damage to lightning. It is not great but it is good. I just have to be content with that for now."

He expected better because his evolution is different from the great mother's. As far as he knows, he has evolved two times in a row. First, he got the soul flame and the crystallized spark of consciousness. Then he used Origin essence to fuse his consciousness with it.

So he wasn't entirely full of himself when he expected a warm welcome from the void universe. But it turned out that once someone has been labeled as a death row inmate by the void universe, there's nothing that can remove that label.

But then he thought of something that the great mother had managed to achieve despite the hostility of the void universe.

He asked himself, "How did the great mother create phoenixes that can hide from lightning punishment? Has she evolved more than once or did she gain more than the soul fire and the ability to manipulate psychic engrams when she evolved once?"

The great mother isn't welcomed in the world of manifestation but she managed to slip her soul fragments past the scrutiny of the law matrix to create the Phoenix race. He has done that too with his infection and creation of zombies but he was hoping he would be able to do more since he has soul force which the great-mother doesn't have.

"I can only try to experiment. Maybe the answer to freedom lies with the Will of the plane. It is a spiritual entity and it can survive in the world of manifestation without being destroyed. Let's see how it does it."

Things would be easier if he could chat with the Will of the plane and exchange pointers with it. Unfortunately, he can only manage the first one. He can't achieve the second part because the Will of the plane is not cooperating.
