Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

"Of course, it is hard. Where did you find them though?"

"We are not having that conversation."

Sivan replied as he looked at the formation. Currently, the formation on his table is connecting to the souls within the light chamber and in turn to the whole of Gaja city.

Slowly one small dot after another appeared on the city layout and each of them has a different size.

It is the location of all of the living creatures within the city.

He cannot find out who is standing where, but he can estimate the strength of the person.

The problem with the light chamber is that it cannot clearly provide the image of the person. The most they could do is estimate the power of the person and the approximate location.

"So, what are you going to do now?"

"This distorts the spiritual sense of most people even people of your level. At least for you, you will have a very small space where your spiritual sense wouldn't be affected and you will have all of your instincts intact.

But for the rest of the cultivators, this is a living nightmare.

The first step is to let them sit.

If they open their eyes, all they would see is a burning glare and even if they close their eyes, they wouldn't be able to come out of it.

The lack of spiritual sense that they had for decades and for some even centuries, will drive them mad.

They will look for a way to find something out around them. They will try to adapt to the place. But they wouldn't be able to do anything.

Then, I will make my first move."

"Since Sam is the one who created this, he would be able to figure this out. He might even have the key for this."

"Yeah, he does have the key, but there is one problem. The key is with me."

"What?" Avlyn got shocked.

"Yeah, he had a key for this, but after I stole his body and resources, I stole that key too. This is one of the things that the key hasn't been figured out with his intellect and techniques, rather with the resources and artefacts he possessed.

Now he doesn't have anything. He has to figure out a way around it."

"What is that key? I am curious."

"Too bad, you will never know."

Sivan replied with a cold smile as he looked at the formation eagerly waiting.

Meanwhile, back in the city.

Sam is sitting on the ground as he tried his best to keep calm.

He extended his observation as far as he can. Even though Sivan's body has this observation ability that is better than Sam's body, it is still limited.

Even with their observation ability, he could barely observe what is beneath the ground. But for the things that are around it, it is completely impossible.

But he still kept it so that he could have an additional indication if anyone is coming.

In the past few minutes, he tried to connect as many communication tokens as he can and told everyone to pass the message that he told them. To stay stable and stationary without moving around

Apart from that, he is waiting with his spectre out. For the perfect timing.

But he doesn't know if this one chance he has would be enough to figure out a way out of this.

Because, as Sivan said to Avlyn, the only key used to have is currently in the hands of Sivan.

And that key is the Crystal table within the tower of his divine dimension.

The crystal table that gives a clear picture-perfect image of everything that is around him is the only way for him to figure out a way out of this situation.

That is the only thing he thought of when was making it.

The source of it wouldn't be easy to track. At least from within.

And in the current situation, no matter who walks out of the city will be targeted by the Mari clan members and will be killed.

He is continuously brainstorming as he thought of ways to make the one idea he had a successful one.

He is currently feeling the vibrations and the sound of the snapping that Gail is doing.

After a moment, Gail spoke through the communication token.

"Can I just use a spiritual energy attack that won't affect anyone else? It will only create chaos in the surroundings."

"No, it doesn't work."

"Why?"

"There are over a hundred thousand souls around you. In fact, all of the light and everything around is a combination of souls.

They can channel and stabilize the energy most of the time."

"Then I can just kill them?"

"What about others within the clan? The clan infrastructure? The formations? I am pretty sure you are not sure what direction you are facing.

Can you say for sure that you are in an empty spot?"

Gail was tongue-tied.

Even with all of the experience, he couldn't be sure of it. It almost felt like the world is spinning around and he doesn't know if there are any other people everywhere that are going to be hurt if he made a move.

Sam paused and continued.

"Even if that is the case, things wouldn't be as simple. They are currently the same as light particles and they have a high sense of energy. As soon as you try to gather energy, they can manipulate themselves leaving a light spot. You wouldn't be able to hit the soul and the attack would just be wasted."

"How is this even possible? How did you think of making this?"

"Can I tell you about that later? I cannot hear another lecture about how weird and insane my inventions are.

I would like to focus on a way to clear this."

As he spoke, he suddenly sensed something and rolled to the side on the ground.

*BOOM*

A large explosive sound came from the spot that he was in. He couldn't see anything in that spot, but he could swear that he felt some fluctuations in the temperature and the wind flow there.

"What happened?"

"Illusions are starting up. Try to calm down Giyon and Grivon. Tell them that no matter what kind of hallucination comes to them, they shouldn't attack.

They should just stay put."

"Alright. I will be on it."

Sam sat up straight again and took a deep breath. He looked into the white space and he can see some of his own nightmares coming up. He knew that he would be subjected to the hallucinations and particularly with all of the traumatic experiences, he has way too many that these souls could take advantage of.

As he was thinking, an illusion of his past life popped up. When he was just a kid and was being abused.

It was followed by the image of him being trafficked.

The image of him being abused within the organization he was sold to.

All of these are coming up one after another.

He took a deep breath as he knew that things will only get worse. These souls are showing his worst fears and he doesn't want to fall for them.

He focused on the spectre and commanded it to connect with his memories.

The spectre that is actually a ghost chimaera was a compilation of hundreds of souls itself. All of these memories are flashing and Sam is letting them flood into his head.

As he was absorbing those memories and almost placed himself in those situations, the hallucinations are changing based on them and they are unable to stay and influence him.

Sam smiled as he focused on the surroundings with his observation ability.

Currently, most of it's blocked, but soon he managed to find a small opening.

"Catch it."

The spectre stopped the memory transfer process and moved towards a spot. A while glowing soul was absorbed into the spectre.

"AAAAHHHHH…"

The spectre screaming and Sam can hear that through his mental connection. It is going through the pain even as a soul.

That is because of the unnatural combination of the death energy of the spectre and the light energy of the soul.

Sam connected with the spectre as both of them battled and suppressed the soul.

He forcefully made it sign an additional contract with the spectre before letting it be absorbed completely.

The spectre felt a connection with the formation and in turn, Sam also managed to get the connection. With the ability of the light soul that it just absorbed, the spectre managed to get a slight view of the surroundings.

Sam heaved a sigh. Even though he cannot get a complete view of things, he is pretty sure that he would be able to manage to pull the rest of the plan off.

This is just the first step, but it went without a hitch.

As he was thinking, he suddenly felt something coming at him.

He took out his staff and created a barrier around him.

*BOOM*

An explosive impact threw him off and he saw a spear that almost broke his barrier.
