Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

The soul orb hovered around Cray.

It struggled to get out of the circle now and then, but it was unable to do so and it ended up revolving around Cray again and again.

Cray opened his eyes as he looked at the orb and said.

"That guy is good."

He muttered with bright eyes.

Avlyn just calmly looked at him waiting for him work.

Cray made some hand signs and a bright glowing energy that took the shape of runes came out of his body. He held the energy in the form of a ball and placed it into the formation.

"But I wonder if he is good enough to overcome this."

The formation absorbed the runic energy and channelled it into the soul orb. The orb that was clear until then suddenly had runes marked all over it. The formation was cleared.

The orb flew threw the air and appeared within the city as it passed through the battlefield.

It went within the range of Sam's complete control and kept on going until it reached the formation.

When it finally reached the inscribed formation in the middle of which Sam is sitting with his soul almost out of his body, it entered the formation and hit Sam's soul projection.

Sam who was sitting with his full focus on controlling the undead, golems and Lightning worms suddenly felt something hit him.

At this moment, in his mind, there is a large array of perspectives showcased. They are the perceptions of every creature and entity he is currently controlling.

He felt like he is standing in a blank space with screen hovering all over him and he is looking at all of the screens at the same time.

He felt like all of the screens are connected to him through a thread and within that space there are some stray orbs that are hovering around.

One of them hovered away a bit and a large screen opened up from it.

That is the perception of one of the Lava worms.

He felt like his mind is connected by a threat to each of these orbs and then in turn to these projections. But at this moment, there is an extra thread that is not just connected to him.

He focused on that one orb and he noticed the runes around it.

There is another thread that is connected to someone else on another side.

Sam frowned and he concentrated on the orb a bit. He caught on to that thread and tried to pry to the other side.

Cray who is sitting in the camp, frowned and muttered.

"He is quick too. But also a bit hasty."

Avlyn's frown relaxed a bit after listening to that.

Cray started making some more handsigns. At this moment, within the Sam's headspace where his soul is viewing everything, he envisioned a large tear occurring at a corner and someone trying to pry it open.

He frowned and focused on the tear. He started mending it with his mental energy and it started getting narrower. Within a few seconds, the whole thing was closed.

There are a dozen or so orbs that are around Sam and they moved up on his command as they reinforced the boundaries of the space.

Cray suddenly opened his eyes in his tent as he looked shocked.

"What happened?"

Avlyn asked in surprise.

"He is really good. Way too good for a young man."

"Young man?"

"Yeah, it is Sam who is doing it. The soul, I caught a glimpse of it. The soul definitely belonged to the person named Sam. He is operating this network and there is a great chance that he created it."

"Sam created this soul network? Are you kidding me?"

"I was skeptical on why the other person didn't use any divine will in it, now I understand, he doesn't have any to use at all."

"Are you sure, he is not just operating the network that someone else created?"

"I don't know, but from the looks of it, it is highly likely that he made it by himself. There is also something resisting me from entering the soul space.

Apart from his own resistance that he is putting up, this is very natural and more powerful too. I don't know what it is though."

"Try to open it again. A young man operating a soul network? Apart from 'them' nobody has ever done that."

"'Them'? This is better than 'them'. You will only be able to understand after you see it or experience it. Those normal soul networks are only used by some necromancers to control the undead creatures and some puppet and golem masters to operate their puppets and golems.

But this one is different. He is operating the golems, puppets and undead all at the same time and look at the number. There are hundreds of them and before this, he controlled more than a thousand.

He is way better than 'them'."

Cray said in excitement as he closed his eyes and tried his best to get into the soul space once again just like before.

But this time, Sam is actually waiting for him on the other side. He knew that he is coming this time and he used all of his extra souls to provide extra reinforcement to the boundaries of this soul space.

"Who is this guy?"

Sam muttered to himself.

"How the fuck is he doing this?"

On the other side Cray also muttered to himself as he tried to pry it open. Apart from the force that is Sam is using to oppose him, there is another force that is trying to stop it.

He opened his eyes and frowned as he felt the connection with the orb that he sent to Sam.

Avlyn looked at him askance and he said.

"There is some trouble. I wanted to suppress my cultivation and enter it sneakily before destroying the space, but it seems like things are not going as well as we want.

I will try to increase my strength a bit."

"Why can't you just use your full strength? Gail and Gamin are outside, we might be able to deal with him like this?"

"If my next trick doesn't work, I will do it."

Avlyn nodded and Cray tried again.

But this time, Sam who is on the other side focused on the orb that caused this connection. He cannot find anything wrong it, but he could feel that there is another extra thread connected to it.

After some thought, he attached a ghost chimera to it.

And at that exact moment, Cray who is trying to pry open the soul space again, suddenly felt the ghost chimera invading his own soul.

He pulled himself back immediately and opened his eyes.

Avlyn who is standing right beside him became frustrated.

"He is a kid compared to you and you were thrown back three times already. Are you kidding me?"

"Yeah, he is a fucking kid alright. I highly doubt he even knows the concept of soul network. He just handed over the control of a soul to a ghost chimera. Do you know anyone who would use soul network like that?"

"What did you say?"

"You heard it right. I just got attacked by a Ghost chimera. He is really reckless. It is almost a taboo to use such a thing in a soul battle. Nobody with a sane mind does that. I suddenly don't want to kill him anymore.

He has such a potential. It would all be wasted if he dies here now."

"What the hell are you talking about? He is an enemy to us now. We need to kill him."

"Well, I don't want to."

"Stop screwing around and kill him."

Avlyn almost lost and wanted to scream.

Cray sighed and was about to go back to attack. But before he could do that, he suddenly felt a sensation and he sighed.

"I can't, he cut the connection off. He destroyed the soul."

"What?"

"He decisively cut destroyed the soul forcefully."

"In the middle of an operating soul network?" Avlyn asked in shock.

"Yes."

"Is he fucking mad?"

"From the exchange, I have with him. You could say that. He is an insanely mad guy who either doesn't know what he is doing or is too confident in his skills to give a fuck about the consequences of what he is doing.

But trust me, if he grows, that would be some seriously good soul commander. He will make those snotty brats quake in their boots."

"Too bad, we cannot let him live and realize that potential."
