All Novel Full Chapter 282 - Progress
-----
Time goes flying by and an entire week has gone by since Noah acquired his Divine Realm, and many things had happened since then.
Well, not really, an entire week inside of Noah's Divine Realm, which was around two days outside.
In these two days, which were a week inside his Divine Realm, if not a bit more, Noah had taken half of the time to relax and assess his power, refining his overflowing soul energy and slowly taming its power.
Taming was not a bad word choice in this, as Noah indeed needed to "tame" his own soul, as it had grown so strong it seemed to have a life of its own, so he had to sit down and meditate for a few days to manage to refine his soul several times until the overflowing divine power didn't damage him anymore.
Indeed, damaged. And well, it had not stopped damaging him, but he had calmed down about 40% of it at the very least.
This divine power was damaging Noah's body because it was not divine, it was a mortal's body with immense supernatural powers, but it was still a mortal body, and because he lacked any power that could let his physical body take on all of this correctly, his body was being constantly burned alive by this power.
Thankfully, he healed himself almost instantaneously too, so his body was "fine" but at the same time being constantly torn apart…
But thanks to this "break" he took for a few days, he had managed to stabilize his energies through methods of soul cultivation he had figured by himself.
This method was rather simple! He used his own soul to cut his soul and then regenerate it back. He cut it and regenerated it constantly through mana regeneration filling the soul wounds, this way, Noah purified his soul from all this malicious overflowing energy.
After that, he devoured his own soul pieces, although some ended escaping his grasp and wandered around the Divine Realm until he caught them and managed to eat them, although these "evil" soul clones had possessed powerful SSS-Rank monsters, although he defeated them all at the end and reclaimed the pieces of his own soul while devouring the beasts.
He had also experimented with devouring the monsters inside his divine realm but gained no skills from them nor stats or power, they seemed to be, to him, made by his own flesh.
It was as if these monsters were made of his own flesh! It was a strange feeling, but everything within the divine realm was in some way part of his own body, even the monsters.
Although the Vampires of his guild and the entire sector entered his divine realm to hunt down these monsters, their meat and blood were very tasty for them and nourished them more than anything.
Anyways, going back to the previous topic, Noah's soul cultivation had advanced so much that his soul became too strong and wild, so he had to cut it down and regenerate it back several times until it calmed down, although its very existence still damaged his physical body. But Noah had become rather dull to pain, so being constantly burned by the divine power of his soul, and then regenerated back was nothing at this point.
After his soul grew so big and strong, Noah had realized that his soul had grown vast and filled with essence… and well, he was now able to create Soul Clones, which he had employed a few times against Excalibur and God, with even more ease.
But what were Soul Clones?
Soul Clones were a piece of Noah's soul that functioned independently, it even had a copy of his own mind, and was connected to him as well, so he was able to order them to do things and even put his own main mind in them.
He had also discovered a way to even give them bodies like his! Although it wasn't through self-duplication, or at least not the conventional self-duplication, as Noah was not a slime or something.
So what he usually did was cutting his head off and growing a new body, cutting, and leaving the bodies separated. After that, he used the potent healing magic of Arthur to make these corpses regrow their heads, although they were soulless.
And after that, he inserted the soul clones inside of them… and that was it! He made clones.
However, they didn't share all of his powers, although they could use part of his magic and skills, but not his lifeblood jewels.
Alongside that, they were not able to grow independently and needed to be "upgraded" by Noah, as they lacked a blood core of their own as strong as his, he wasn't able to split his blood core or dragon heart, so when they were made, he created blood cores and dragon hearts for all of them from the beginning, so they ended with Level I Blood Cores and Dragon Hearts, sadly.
But they were still able to exert more power than what these organs said about them! But they were unable to gain stats by themselves and needed Noah's assistance for that.
But because they held his knowledge and memories, and also could use his skills and magic, he decided to use them for something truly deplorable!
He had begun to plan for a "mass conversion" by sending his Clones around the world.
As they held his appearance and could change their appearances a bit as well, Noah decided to send them to other Sectors through Axis Corporations flying vehicles, courtesy of William.
This event had just begun, so he was still sending more, while he began to travel to Sector C, his next destination, where hunters were still struggling to complete all the dungeons that had suddenly emerged when the mana crystal meteors hit the earth and filled with too much mana.
Of course, Noah didn't even need to move there, as a clone had already reached there and had used Kin Summon to teleport him there directly!
And so, in a night like any others for the people of the sector, Noah and his party stood above the top of the Axis Corporations Building of Sector C, as he began to generate the same magic he used to convert the entirety of Sector D.
