Chapter 1279 The Quest For The Fire Of Rebirth.

What the squad of justice heard gave them more questions than answers. It made them investigate further. Even Jarkon took this seriously because if any of this is related to Soverick then the Virut plane might be in trouble after all.

------Legion-7's Reincarnation.

Legion-7 was selected to reincarnate into the Phoenix race. Gehaldirah had always coveted their divine ability. They are able to resurrect after death on their own without the help of the law matrix. It is a recovery ability similar to the extra-life divine ability of the Blood Giants. It is better than the extra life because their divine ability can also be used to attack.

The Phoenix race possesses a powerful flame called the fire of rebirth. Every member of their race at the transcendent level can use their fire of rebirth to resurrect or burn their enemies. The more living things they burn, the more powerful their flame gets.

Gehaldirah wasn't the only one to covet their flames. Unfortunately, no one had been able to create a concept similar to the fire of rebirth. In fact, no one knows how it works.

Gehaldirah was greedy for that divine ability so he found a phoenix egg to use as reincarnation material. Then he created an array that sent forth his soul fragments into various races. All of the soul fragments succeeded in reincarnating into their designated race except Legion-7.

Legion-7 didn't fail because he got lost. He found a viable phoenix egg and entered it. What he found there was beyond his expectations. He was shocked when he found a soul as strong as his in the egg.

He asked in utter surprise, "What in high heaven is going on?" This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

An egg should not have a strong soul. In fact, it will be extraordinary if the soul within an egg is fully formed at all. That occurs in dragon eggs. But even that should create a soul that is weak. No egg should have a soul that is as strong as the soul fragment of an Origin god no matter how weak that Origin god is.

Legion-7's opponent was not fighting back at all so there was no challenge. The other soul fragment was also not as sturdy as his. His soul has been infused with divinity and he has access to soul force from Legion-1. He even has Origin essence to use in case he needs it. He is at an absolute advantage in every way. So it is not surprising that the soul fragment will lose.

The red soul fragment at the center of the egg shrunk in size as it gradually lost its spirituality in the fight. But the soul fragment suddenly moved before it was completely destroyed. It didn't fight back when it moved. It seemed to have sunk downwards. Then it disappeared from the egg.

Legion-7 couldn't find it anymore. All he could tell was that it went below the law matrix.

He shrugged when he couldn't figure out what happened. "I won and that's all that matters."

He moved to take over the egg and complete his reincarnation. But things didn't go as simply as they went for the others. For one, there was no body in the egg to possess. There was only energy and matter but no life.

He thought the red soul fragment had formed a connection with it that's why he didn't sense the connection to the body. There is no red soul fragment now but he still can't sense anything that can be considered gestating life.

"What is it this time? How can there be an egg without life? Then what is the egg for?"

One would expect an egg to be created for the gestation of life. He expected that too. But apparently not.
