Within the fragmented space of consciousness of the saint of Abope, there was an independent world several light-years wide. Solanky, with his consciousness strength and spiritual sense at the level of a powerful transcendent saint emperor, easily invaded the world, which had a weaker will of the saint guarding it. Solanky's will swallowed the saint's will and took over control of the world; inside this world there were several galaxies and starfields numbering in the thousands. On one life planet deep within the seabed of the planet was a buried chest that contained the desolate god region slot token from the trade, which was tactically hidden, and any being who searches the mind or consciousness of the saint would have a hard time discovering it if they didn't have a powerful consciousness to swallow the will of the saint and know its location.
Using his will, the chest disappeared from the seabed and appeared before him in the outside world, and he stored the token in his internal world space. He then condensed an avatar with the energies of the saint, which was now masterless, and descended upon the life planet. He landed on the highest point of the planet and spread out his spiritual sense to scan every living being alive to investigate whether the saint had a reincarnation of himself living amongst these beings. Because the safest way a saint could survive without depending on beliefs and other direct techniques was to reincarnate in his own world and slowly absorb energies to reach their peaks. This was also very risky because the reincarnated being would have no idea of this and might disrupt the merger of the old will and new will, which can later ruin both wills.
Solanky, having consumed the old will, knew exactly where this new will would respawn from, and he had to consume it too if he wanted total control of the saint. He located the reincarnated new will residing in a young boy who seemed like a bully. He instantly locked the space as a form of caution because with the old will gone, this young boy, in terms of life and death, could summon upon the energies of the world and quickly rise to the level of the old will and escape the internal world, which would make it almost impossible to discover his whereabouts.
The young boy was around the ages of twenty to twenty-two, and the will of the saint had set it in stone that whenever he reaches 25, he would be able to wield the power of the internal world and begin to cultivate regardless if the saint is dead or alive. Solanky didn't waste time, as the boy was now too immature and clueless of his shared destiny with the powerful being they called the god of their world, and trapped the boy in a velvet ball of contamination, as he wanted to show him how being bullied felt like. After a few minutes the young boy collapsed and fell dead with his will and consciousness dissipating into the nothingness. Solanky was now relieved, as he now had total control of the saint's body, and he could utilize his power in difficult situations.
Solanky didn't touch any of the worlds, as he knew the belief that elevated this saint to this level was due to the fact the beings of this internal world had total trust and loyalty to the saint; with that, he could draw on the power of the billions of beings in his internal world. Solanky was impressed because this was a thing only a transcendent saint emperor could do, meaning this saint had once obtained a saint emperor's inheritance.
Solanky withdrew his consciousness from the saint and started forming seals with his hands; he teleported out and spread out his spiritual sense without restraint to warn any weaker approaching venerable saints and lower entities. He planted the spear in space and entered its internal space to begin refining the saint into his puppet. With the half-step peak turns sealing and formations set around an area of five light-years of him, any being with weaker strength having ill intentions would instantly be reduced to ashes.
Inside the space of the spear, the saint was suspended lifeless above a huge cauldron, which had four intertwining flames burning beneath it. Solanky took out one transcendent grass of eternity and melted it to extract the original energies of the grass. He then added some special herbs to the energies of the grass inside the cauldron and formed seals with his hands and sent them flying to attach themselves to the body of the saint and enter his destroyed consciousness space, which was now reformed by Solanky.
The body of the saint was gently lowered into the cauldron, with the refined saint will left inside the body. It slowly began absorbing the energies inside the cauldron with the guidance of Solanky's spiritual power. The puppet refinement technique was among the crimson engravings imprinted into his consciousness, and that was how the two golems were created, as their consciousnesses were refined and controlled by the forsaken god himself.
After half an hour, two-thirds of the energies inside the cauldron were absorbed by the saint, elevating his physical body's strength and resilience to the level of a half step saint emperor transcendent entity. Solanky then imprinted some techniques into the consciousness of the saint, although they weren't peak turns or half-step peak turn techniques; with the physical strength alone, he could challenge a true saint emperor like the female officiator. The remaining energies were used to nourish the saint's spiritual sense and energize him to the level of a true saint, emperor, or transcendent entity.
After three days the energies in the cauldron had been completely absorbed by the saint. The cauldron disappeared, leaving the naked body of the saint, which had undergone some drastic modifications and enhancements. The saint didn't look like his old self anymore, which resembled a human; this time he looked more like a beast man with the head of a lion with four wings behind him, and his skin was covered in dense jade-like scales that were tightly sealed with no gaps between them, making it look flawless, and behind him he had a long dragon tail with a blade on its tip.
The new look of the saint was several kilometers tall with a wingspan of hundreds of kilometers compared to his previous form, which was several meters tall. This look of the saint made him look very imposing just by looking at him. Solanky smiled and said, "From today you are called Leon. Tell me how the merger of your consciousness and internal world is going. What is the rate of its completion?" The saint, now Leon, who had no memories of his past lives, replied to Solanky and said, "99%." ""I'm almost done," he said in confusion as he felt like he had woken up from a deep slumber while the outside faded into oblivion.
Solanky was happy now because he had a Saint Emperor as a puppet. Although Leon was a puppet, he had his freedom to do everything but one thing: he couldn't fight or betray Solanky. As he viewed him like a god who saved his life. Solanky nodded and waved his hand and stored Leon in his internal world space to finish his merger. During the refinement and absorption, Solanky had used two of the transcendent grasses of eternity of the remaining 15 grasses. Solanky took out the desolate god's token and used his spiritual sense to locate the coordinates of the desolate god's region. A message was passed to his consciousness telling him to come to the given coordinates in three days before the position of the region shifts.
Solanky was shocked because this was the second time he heard of or saw a region that was several trillions of light-years shifted; the first time was the forsaken realm, which was shifted from the beyond realm into a void region.
