The plan broke down quite simply to Sylas, but to Fanelei it was like Sylas had suddenly become a mad scientist. At some point, Yamero began to laugh uproariously.
"Madman. A true madman. You know this isn't even your body, right? What does the little lady think of all of this?"
Fanelei had long stopped shuddering, though, her gaze replaced by a sharp focus.
Sylas' plan was insane, but it was the best idea they had right now.
What Sylas wanted to do was stratify her souls into the various Layers of her body, separating her Will into locations it shouldn't even be in.
There were two Layers one's Will was usually separated into. Those were the Will Manifestation and the Will Core Layers.
Often, the Will Core was where actual life was, while at the Will Manifestation tier was where the Will could begin imposing itself onto the world through telekinesis, and finally at the Soul Construct level, you had things like Rune Mastery.
When one thought of the Layers of the body, it was often thought of in terms of where the talent was hidden, and not often enough in terms of how those talents manifested themselves into the outside world.
What Fanelei was doing with her veins could actually be considered a form of Blood and Bone Essence manipulation. But she had skipped too many steps, the foundation was shoddy, and the Runes weren't as good as they could be.
Sylas couldn't do much about the Runes, not at this level… unless he changed things.
The plan was quite simple in Sylas' mind. He would separate out Fanelei's souls into their seven original pieces rather than allowing them to fuse together into one. Then, he could stretch them from the Will Manifestation Layer upward.
There were a perfect seven Layers above Will Core, each one getting closer and closer to what could be manipulated.
Those Layers were: Genes, Gene Talents, Blood Essence, Bone Essence, Comprehension, Soul Construct, and Will Manifestation.
Sylas would take the soul from Fanelei's first life and anchor it into the Gene Layer, he would take the second and anchor it into the Gene Talent Layer, the third and anchor it into Blood Essence—so on and so forth.
The reason he wanted to do this was to stratify Fanelei's Foundation and make it more accessible.
Usually, when one progressed from one Tier to the next, everything would be compressed into a Foundation that would form a platform to help you elevate to the next Tier.
When things were like this, Sylas couldn't do anything. The Genes and other Layers he was more familiar with existed between the F-tier and the D-tier. He could even have a decent understanding of the C-tier now, but it wouldn't be to the point he could snap a finger and create a Legendary Gene.
This stopped him from being able to help Fanelei.
However, if Sylas forced this stretching to occur, the line between Foundation and her current Tier would blur enough that, theoretically, he could access her far weaker Genes, Gene Talents, and so on.
If he could do that, then he would, one, be able to better understand her path, and two, he would be able to actually manipulate and change them.
The first thing this would do was ingrain Fanelei's path deeper. Right now, she was only trying to draw the various paths of her lives together by manipulating her Blood Essence and only peripherally her Bone Essence.
