The two rings of fog around Rowan were now fourteen meters in circumference and vibrating with unfathomable power, yet they did not remain in place for long before another ring of fog appeared above it. The space around seemed to explode as a subtle sound that had been quiet before began to increase in pitch.
The sounds were like singing, maybe crying or babbling from a crowd… it was impossible to understand the meaning of the sound, yet there was an incredibly strong urge for one to focus with an obsessive intensity on understanding the meaning of the sound.
A god would run mad trying to understand the sounds the Supreme Circle was making as it became complete.
The three rings increased their diameter to twenty-one meters and the power emerging from Rowan exploded, the entire domain creaked and Rowan was dimly aware that Old Man Seed must be doing something to control the level of destruction because he could feel space tightening around him.
However despite his interventions, the earth below Rowan was shattered for miles and a crater deeper than he could see was created that led into darkness, the sky above shattered to pieces, and the world outside the domain was revealed for a brief moment before it was closed off, and as if the level of destruction was not enough, a fourth ring appeared.
At this moment it was possible to understand a fragment of the sounds emerging from the rings around Rowan, and if Rowan's awareness was focused on what was happening around him, he would have discovered that the sound was a recognizable language.
With four rings with an area of twenty-eight meters surrounding his body, Rowan's presence multiplied, seemingly carrying a weight of its own. His Aura pressed everything to the ground, even the sky above was dragged down to the earth, leaving only a circular purple cloud that revolved around his body and stretched for miles, with mystical purple lightning flashing through the cloud.
His perception still remained inside his body, and he was still unaware of what was happening around him, the song of the Supreme Circle taking over his senses.
Four of the nine rings had disappeared from his mental space, and he knew that with just a thought he could link himself with them, but first, he needed to savor the feeling of a heavyweight leaving his consciousness.
It was not really a physical weight, it was more of an awareness that carried its own gravity, this was the best method Rowan could explain the feeling of holding the unactivated Supreme Circles.
This power was a trap, it was never meant to be wielded by a mortal or an immortal. The sheer weight alone of holding one Supreme Circle would crush any mental space.
A mental space was linked to the soul, and Rowan knew of no one who could equal the strength of his mental space, with his dimensional flesh that had forcefully merged all his powers, it made Rowan's mental space reach a level of stability and power that was unprecedented.
His flesh could be seen as his mental space, and his flesh was a dimension. The formless power of a mental space had been given the tenacity and depths of a physical form via his dimension. Rowan's body was a miracle.
Despite all this, he still felt the weight. Perhaps this power could be carried by higher dimensional beings, but by then they had already exceeded the Supreme Circles, and therefore, this technique was useless to them, as they would not be able to activate it.
