The Primordial Record novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180 Killing A Continent (5)

Rowan took a while to figure out how to dispel the black flames, as he was not in the habit of revealing his true capabilities. He did not care if the information of the flames were previously revealed, he would not keep it any longer than necessary.

He had only two reasons for coming back to the Covenant. It was to find out every information they knew about Anima, Primordial Aether and Aspects.

The second was to check the resources he had been placed inside the Interdimensional Storage Space by the Covenant to accelerate his so-called Infernal Spark.

The Oracle had obliged him on both requests, and he was able to learn what an Anima was. During Ascension into godhood, there is a chance to reach the Pillars of the Universe.

This was a mysterious location that no one knew its purpose or how it came to be, but while at this location, a god could gather as much Anima as their Divine Kingdom could hold.

Of course, this amount could differ widely among each god, but this was an essential material that would allow the god to access a new level of power and boost their Divine Spark. Without Anima, a god would never have access to Primordial Aether.

They could only access Primordial Aether in that brief window while connected to the Pillars of the Universe, but after that time was over, then the Anima they gathered would no longer have that properties of channeling Primordial Aether.

But, since Anima was proclaimed to be the most conducive properties in the universe with regard to channeling powers. Every major power that had access to Anima would use it to create simulacra of themselves that could be placed in different locations.

With its high conducive abilities, the god could channel most of his powers and could physically push a lot of their powers at the location where the simulacra were located.

With this method a god could be at many locations at the same time, even reach places they could no longer enter due to their Divine Nature. They used this method to exert their influences to the far corners of the universe without scruples.

Rowan likened Primordial Aether to be similar to the Empyrean Essence he once had access to when he was reborn as an Empyrean. But unlike the gods who received theirs at Ascension—Which would turn out to be the peak for most gods— he received his baptism of Primordial Aether at what could be likened to his birth, and he was sure in more plentiful quantities too.

No wonder the difference between a god and an Empyrean was so vast. Most god would only receive this blessing of Primordial Aether at their peak, limiting their growth to a great extent.

But for an Empyrean, they had so much more space to grow. From the moment of their birth, they now had more space to develop their powers, and they would inevitably leave all the gods behind.

Rowan had taken a lot of Primordial Aether from the Universe, when he was evolving his second bloodline, unlike with the Ouroboros bloodline where he used his Soul points to create the Empyrean Essence due to the presence of his shell.

For this second bloodline he basically just kept the channel open to the universe storehouse of Primordial Aether. The Soul Reaver bloodline did not have any shell to produce essence because fundamentally it was not a bloodline that could be produced by the universe.

He had basically stolen the lifeblood of the universe for himself.

He hoped it would not have any unknown negative consequences to him or the universe at large. He no longer looked down on his capabilities as before, as he knew he had the potential to rapidly change the universe if he was not careful.

Yet, Rowan felt any sort of results from his actions would later reveal themselves in their time. Those were matters he would not concern himself with for the moment.
