The Primordial Record

Chapter 1118: Assessing Realms



The development of the Blood Blessed was heading towards the right track, and as more of them became golden giants, his level as an Ascendant would increase as well, as they were both in a symbiotic relationship.

With a population of above three billion and a safe environment, he expected the population of the Blood Blessed to explode in a short time, meaning that his growth as an Ascendant would be almost limitless, as every newborn would be contributing to his overall power.

Shifting his focus away from the Blood Blessed, Rowan focused on assessing his present realm as an Ascendant. This was crucial to his future inside Doom Star, he needed to push his Ascendant state several levels higher so the moment he summoned the final part of his consciousness and awakened his dimension from a state of slumber, the commotion would be so massive it would stir up the entire realm.

Ascendancy would become another path he would take to completing his powerbase, and if his suspicion was correct that he was also undergoing Tribulation for the Supreme Circles, then he would need a brief moment to complete the Circles and finally become what was considered by all to be a True Immortal.

It was generally known that after completing the Supreme Circle, that was when an Immortal began to search for Will, there were many paths to complete the Supreme Circles, and Rowan was taking the greatest of them, the original path for which this entire Era was created.

He feared that completing it would not be easy, but it would appear that he was on the right path in doing so. If he could survive long enough to complete this path, then he would have the backing to chase eternity, for this Era would be his own.

'Yeah, no way it would be this easy. There are levels beyond levels that I am not seeing here, but whatever is to come, I will be ready for it. I only need to keep moving forward.'

Rowan had diverged from the path of a normal Ascendant a while ago and he could no longer use them as a measuring metric for his developmental process, but he knew that the next step for Ascendancy was entering the Dan, or in other words, achieving Will.

Unlike what was applicable in reality outside of this place, achieving Will here was ridiculously simple in comparison, making Rowan understand that perhaps the Soul had a great influence on attaining the power of Will. Ascendants were as close to Souls-like beings as anything he had ever come across, making it easier for them to access higher dimensions.

Or perhaps it was because this place was locked off from reality outside, and was not subjected to the same stringent rules of time and space that guarded reality outside of here that it made it easier to see the fabrics of time and space.

He shut off his perception from his children so there would be nothing linking his Ouroboros bloodline to what he was about to do, making the power of his Ascendancy take center stage in his consciousness. This process was easier than before as if it was a reminder that he was now more than just a Creator, but an individual that could remain distinct from his creation if he wanted to. He might have been tied to his children for sustenance before, but now he could easily let them go.

Letting go of his children freed him from any of their desires, bringing silence and he suddenly saw his soul in such clarity that it burned his eyes.

It was a furiously burning white sun with splashes of golden flames intermixed within.

He finally understood why his new body was necessary to contain such a soul, because if he was using the pathway of Ascendancy as a measuring tool, then his soul was equal to the Ascendant Suns in the skies, perhaps even more powerful.

This was not too strange, if an Ascendant became a being of nearly pure soul power by merging their tiny Natal Treasure to a dead rock, what about him that merged his nearly universe-like sized Natal Treasure to billions of infant Children of Ouroboros? The answer was simple, the explosive growth of his soul became unprecedented.

With the development of every Blood Blessed below as they grew stronger, this would have a positive effect on his soul making him grow stronger, and still, this was not the end.

Rowan had isolated the stream of power that fed into the growth of his soul, and having done so, it was a simple thing to convert the soul energy he was gaining from his dimension into this power that was feeding his soul.

With the third part of his dimension added to him, the streams of soul power he could access had exploded in volume, making the growth process of his soul become something unreasonable. If this continued then in the future, just his soul alone would be equal in might to his entire Consciousness Pillars.

If he did not have his present body, he would have become a fourth Ascendant Sun, and perhaps the weakest as he would become the greatest source of nutrition for any Ascendant, he was just soul power without much means to defend himself if he came across Ascendants of higher Dan, but with his current body, he was rooted to the earth where he could grow strong enough to reach Dan, and from that moment, everything would change.

Rowan had not been able to access the Primordial Record for a while now, but he knew that he already had access to three different Wills, and as far as he knew, he was the only one in reality who was capable of this feat, although the Third Prince came close, and if he could do something like this, it was not far fetched that another extremely capable genius could do something similar and he was not as unique as he once thought.

Even if that was the case, he knew that no one else should be able to hold three evolving Wills as he did, and with all three Wills having the potential of reaching the ninth level and perhaps, beyond that.

The first of his Will, which was the Will of Truth had been of great use to him, especially when he knew it had a masking feature, that is if he wanted, the Will of Truth for a short time can become the Will of Fire or the Will of Stone.

Despite all these changes, he knew he had barely begun to unearth all the capabilities of this Will, and a great reason could be because of the previous state of his soul, or the lack of it. After gaining back his soul, Rowan slowly comes to the realization that he had not been complete, not for a long time.

His actions might seem filled with emotions or his feelings might have been deep, but intrinsically he was not any of these things. He was soulless, he was cold, and his ability as a Creator was what had given him the heart to become more than a machine. The feelings of his children balanced the lack he had inside.
