The Primordial Record

Chapter 1322: Final Roll of The Dice (final)

These mortals born from the souls of those that once existed in this realm began to slowly expand, and with the hidden help of the World Stele, they were able to develop according to the cultivation and power levels of their home dimension.

Without the intervention of the World Stele, it would take several times more effort for this blooming civilization to begin creating a real society where cultivation and immortals could thrive, and the World Stele was in the business of fattening up all these souls so that when they died, the impact of their swollen souls would push out more corruption from the body of Thenos because of the increased soul powers of immortals.

This realm was a massive breeding farm for souls.

From the single point of light in Thenos’s body, more souls kept escaping from the body of Thenos, cleansed in that blazing light, and this new civilization rapidly expanded underneath the source power of an eighth-dimensional realm like Doom Star, where even a pig would become immortal in no time, and so this civilization developed rapidly until there were higher dimensional immortals born among their ranks, and when a certain threshold was crossed, the formation left by the World Stele activated once again.

A plague of rotten darkness descended across the realm, killing the majority of the mortals, and this large influx of souls fueled the explosion of Calamity from the corpse of Thenos and chaos descended on the realm once more.

War and death were a great source of growth, and the descent of Calamity brought about tales of great heroism and fantastic sacrifices that would shake the heart, but in the end, it was all meaningless.

The previous event that wiped out all life in the realm repeated itself once again, but this time it was even faster, and in less than a hundred thousand years, all life in the realm was gone, such a massive influx of powerful souls entering Thenos had an effect and it did not take long for more points of light to burst out of Thenos’s corpse, and in less than ten thousand years new crops of mortals arose from the realm.

This time there were multiple races arose, that was because the World Stele had collected numerous dimensions in the past, and for every new race that arose on Doom Star, their lineage was born from the outside reality, it was the arrangement made by their ancestors that doomed them to be born inside Doom Star, their souls imprisoned for all eternity.

In time all of these multiple races reached a sufficient level of development where they had multiple powerful immortals within their ranks, and without the intervention of the World Stele, these races went to war with each other, believing in their ignorance that each of their race were the masters of reality and with the deaths incurred in this war, Calamity descended as souls flooded the body of Thenos as the war between all the races grew heated and the dead piled up.

The forces of Calamity were not considered much of a threat at the start, with the dozens of races on Doom Star battling amongst themselves to see who would rule reality, and when the real threat of Calamity was acknowledged, it was too late, too many Calamity Beasts had been released from Thenos’s body, and they swept through the realm, destroying every life on the surface.

It did not matter that these dozens of races were several times more powerful than the previous race, their internal strife weakened them enough to the extent that even when the battle took place for nearly a million years, one by one, all the races perished.

The World Stele had succeeded in the first part of its plan, and the cycle of death and rebirth was considered perfect.

In this manner, this tradition of slaughter and rebirth continued on Doom Star until it reached a point where the soul essence of every soul in Doom Star had been wrung dry, and barely two races could be resurrected at the beginning of each cycle, and sometimes only one race would be born, and in those instances, the World Stele that had been gaining increased control over the forces of Calamity over the years would force the destructive event to begin anew.

Rowan was well aware that the Soul Origin of every individual had a limit, and most times this limit would never be found because reincarnation or any sort of rebirth took a long time, enough time that the soul origin of every individual in existence would have recovered from any drain that was incurred during their time alive.

The souls in Doom Star did not have that privilege, because when the World Stele carried the dimensions that it had harvested from reality into Doom Star, the Soul Origin of every entity living in the dimensions was carried alongside them.

Every unfortunate soul stuck in Doom Star could never escape, and in time, even the light from Thenos’s corpse could not cleanse the souls of the strain of so much reincarnation, and an intense aura of death was imprinted in their souls, causing them to have a negative disposition about life and fostering incredible cruelty in their spirit.

However, this was not the concern of the World Stele who had finally succeeded in its endeavor after many minor Eras of this cycle of death and rebirth. The body of Thenos had been cleansed to an extent where the darkness could no longer overwhelm him, and it resulted in a fragile balance between the light and the darkness inside of the titan.

The next step was more delicate and it required someone special to complete it, and after many trials and errors with various geniuses across reality, it finally found someone worthy with a Singularity of his own, who could finish its great work.

The World Stele found Rowan.

All of these were a great learning opportunity for Rowan about the history of Doom Star, but his focus was on something else, Souls.

Rowan had gone above and beyond to gain enough soul energy over the years but nothing could compare to the gargantuan level of souls that the World Stele we able to gather after it brought tens of thousands of dimensions into Doom Star, to put the amount of soul in perspective, the total number of souls that Rowan had gathered throughout his life, was less than one percent of the amount of souls that was here on Doom Star.

For someone like Rowan where souls were not just a form of special resource but were truly a method of creation that he could access at any time and in any manner that he chose to wield, it was unlikely that he would be able to acquire such a massive amount of soul anywhere else in reality in such a short time, after all the World Stele had spent many Minor Eras bringing all of this souls into one place.

The power of the seventh book was simple, with the connection to this world after he had weaved this book from the essence of the Sirens and the power of the World Stele, Rowan had tapped into the formation made to channel all the souls of the dead into Thenos corpse, and with the titan still dead, nothing was stopping him from taking it all for himself.

"Come to me, all of you whose burdens have strained your souls for all eternity, and in my home, you shall find rest."

It was not even a matter of seizing these souls for himself, after all these endless years of suffering, Rowan only had to show his purgatory gates to the countless souls locked inside Thenos corpse and they flocked towards him in a furious storm.

The growth of his Supreme Circles that had become stagnant seemed to be filled with a potent fuel as the power of soul energy descended on Rowan’s dimension with so much force that his entire dimensional flesh was painted with a purplish hue.

Rowan’s consciousness was strained to the brink with handling the stress of his evolution, copying the Supreme Circles, and managing the countless tides of souls pouring into his dimension that seemed to have no end.

He knew that even if he was spending all his time absorbing these souls in Doom Star, there was so much of it that it could take him years to completely devour everything!

There was a tearing shriek that resounded throughout his dimension as his copied Supreme Circle became complete under the endless flood of soul energy, and Rowan did not hesitate to push his evolution into the third dimension.
