The Primordial Record

Chapter 1182: Extending Space

Rowan nodded at the Shiik and he reached his Ascendant body and merged with it. He held back from completing the merger, observing the state of his Ascendant body.

Outwardly it might resemble a simple lump of metal, but within was something special. It was as if one had been transferred to an alien city. Vast connections made with metallic cables that extended into the distance crisscrossed the internals of his Ascendant body, making it appear as if it was filled with countless metallic spider webs.

It was only a structure like this that could hold Rowan's soul that was now more powerful than an Ascendant Sun.

Rowan had been able to briefly roam around the realm with his soul because the transformation caused by his bloodline of Time gave his soul a sort of fleshy outer body covering that could imperfectly hide his soul power for a while, but it was not perfect. This was why none of his children could see his face or come near him.

If he did not return to his Ascendant body, the presence of his soul would begin transforming the world around him until he would begin shining as brightly as the Ascendant Suns overhead, and that was the least amount of changes he was expecting.

He found the center of his body, where the metal webs were thickest and his soul pushed itself into the webs of metal, making him look like a mannequin that had been pierced with a million spikes, as he laid out spredeagled.

The picture his figure painted was grim-he was like a soul that was crucified, but one who walked in knowing his fate. With the level of his soul, it was almost as if it was rejecting the Ascendant body, angered that it was being used to contain it, but it was only satisfied knowing it was just for a short while before it was merged back to its rightful place.

Rowan gasped, the feeling of entering the center of his Ascendant body was strange, perhaps it was the addition of the bloodline of Time, but the sensation was almost... visceral, reaching places in his mind he rarely touched, but mostly, it just felt cold, and he knew what it required was his warmth to give it life, it was created to house the soul of Rowan, a living dimension.

He turned both of his fists around and grabbed dozens of spikes and with a roar, he released his soul essence to flood into the metal. There was a clear ringing sound that was ear piercing and accompanied by Rowan's roar, a golden light that emerged from his soul like an ocean erupted.

The golden light filled the spikes and began traveling to all corners of the Ascendant body. Rowan's roar seemed to have no ending so too was the golden wave erupting from his body until the entire internals of the Ascendant body shone as bright as a star.

From outside the Ascendant Spike rumbled and it began to grow, releasing clear golden lights that would have illuminated millions of miles, but under the frozen time Rowan had imposed on the entirety of the continent of Trion, it did not exceed more than a few thousand feet away from the golden spike.

The spikes began to extend dramatically, its previous length of 144,000 feet, ballooned in length, it grew thousands of miles in a few seconds with no indication it was about to stop growing. The City Rowan built could hold a much greater amount of space in a limited area, but even this fantastical place could not maintain the unreasonable growth of his body.

With a faint pop that was muted by the frozen time in this place, the Ascendant body pierced through the shield of this city and began to head towards the heavens.

The eyes of the Shiik widened in shock, she had no idea how Rowan could freeze such a large area under Time, but she knew if his Ascendant body kept growing it would not be long before it pierced the threshold and entered the higher continents.

He would not be able to hide a commotion like that, even under this frozen time.

She reached forward with both of her hands grabbed the space around her and began to stretch it like dough, and making a throwing motion, the Shiik began wrapping space around the rising Ascendant body.

In the fifth dimension, the control over space became instinctive, and although the space of Doom Star was hard to manipulate, the last thing that the Shiik was lacking was strength, what she could not manipulate, she simply ripped apart. It was a good thing that the durable nature of space here meant she would have to cause a more significant amount of damage to cause a chain reaction that would collapse space in this area.

The hardiness of this realm's space was also displayed when Shisu unleashed his Hate technique. Despite the vast area of damage the Hate Sun had caused, it had not managed to even shatter the space that it was crossing.

With this method, the Shiik succeeded in creating a spatial field around Rowan's growing body, that could contain his growth but still limit it to the air space of Trion. The Shiik had to manifest a dozen pairs of arms to keep up with the spatial folding, and she breathed a sigh of relief when the growth of the Ascendant body ceased.

Her eyes roved down the length of the spike and marveled when she discovered it was more than ten million miles long. How great was the power of the soul, that it would require a body that was this massive to contain it, she wondered. If she only knew that Rowan was still not manifesting the entire power of his soul, just enough for him to reach the Ascendant Level, and then using it as a base, summon the final part of his self, hence triggering the war.

Rowan's calm yet extremely powerful voice emerged from the spike, "You have done well my Queen of Calamities. You have seven days to prepare yourself for my Ascension. Pull out all stops and burn as darkly as I have created you to be."

The Shiik bowed and brought her arms together so that both of her palms were touching, and soon another pair of hands appeared underneath that one, her size doubled with the second pair of arms, reaching eighteen feet, and when another pair of arms appeared below the second, her size increased once more, and this trend continued until she was miles tall and possessed thousands of hands.

She began to make arcane gestures using all her fingers, the motion causing the winds to roar, and her red hair that fell like the greatest fall of red flames came alight.

Her multiple hands began to breed darkness and her hair began to release red fire. The flames traveled to her many fingers and scattered into little runes that encircled them. With every movement she was making the red runes poured into the darkness, but more flames were always coming from her hair to create more runes.

Before long, an ocean of reddish-black flames gathered below her feet but this was just the beginning. The creator had given her seven days to prove the reason she was called the Queen of Calamities, and she was not about to disappoint him.
