The Primordial Record

Chapter 1073: Confinement

\'Truly, the soul is a wonderful vehicle for power. I wonder if this is the reason a Primordial of the soul had never arisen.\'

Rowan looked around him and glanced at the sky at the thousands of descending lights, especially three of them that were releasing lights that were greater than the Second Dan Ascendants in front of him, his eyes twitched, and he thought that perhaps he might have underestimated this world and its powers.

A sixth level Will Holder should be equal to Elura, and three were descending towards him at the moment. There was no way Rowan would be able to fight against them, perhaps if he was with his full strength that should work, but his limits should be the Second Dan, and he did not think he could kill a Second Dan Ascendant, only hold his own, and this would not change even if he became an Ascendant, the higher levels of Will held powers that were unfathomable.

Rowan sighed, it turned out he would have to follow a rather radical path to navigate what was coming ahead, and the risk would be terrible, he did not hesitate for an instant, but he was a bit too slow.

The Second Dan Ascendant, a figure who resembled purple smoke covered by a hooded robe, pointed at Rowan, and his body was frozen in place with a resounding snap that made reality for thousands of miles to convulse.

This was not just a minor application of time, but an enhanced version of space-time manipulation where a separate space was created over Rowan\'s body that he had no control over. In this realm, space and time were meaningless, a concept that was forcefully erased, placing Rowan in a dark zone that was impossible to break out from, at least, that was what the Ascendants previously thought.

The only thing Rowan\'s dormant dimension gave him was weight and strength, and if anyone wanted to hold him, they were not holding a man, but an entire dimension, that took the concept to another level entirely.

A loud crack emerged from the space surrounding Rowan\'s body, and the Ascendant holding him in place was shoved back by an invisible hand, he cursed aloud with a hint of panic in his voice as he hastily redoubled the power he was pouring over Rowan to hold him bound,

"Help me hold him, it feels like I am holding back an entire world rather than a single person!"

The other Second Dan Ascendant stretched out his hands and added his domain over the one holding Rowan bound, and the space further solidified around him, and he groaned also when it felt as if he was holding back a star from exploding using only his arms,

"Do not release him! Hold for a few more moments longer, the Third Dans would soon be here, no matter what sort of abomination he is, there would be no escape for him."

Another cracking sound escaped from the space around Rowan and an astonished gasp ran across the Ascendants here as more cracking sounds occurred in greater volume and intensity, making the space around him spiderweb like a broken mirror. Even a null zone could not hold back this monster.

Rowan\'s body suddenly vanished from the shattered space and the Second Dan Ascendant retreated in shock as Rowan appeared before him, his right hand like a spear reaching for his head, and his left hand was already an inch into his chest, he would have not even known he was about to suffer damage if Rowan had not been frozen in place by a higher power.

The Third Dan Ascendants had arrived just in time, or Rowan would have begun another round of slaughter. The new space around him was not one he could easily break out from, and for all intent, he was basically helpless.

The threshold where an immortal ending battle had just been waged shuddered repeatedly as thousands of Ascendants slammed into it, and all these mighty and mysterious figures surrounded the singular form of Rowan, who was frozen in place.

The Ascendants all appeared like spirit creatures with their shifting body of smoke and Aura, and the fact that most Ascendants favored wearing hooded robes gave their surroundings a frightening essence as if these were a gathering of grim reapers.

At this moment everyone was silent, this was because of three presences in their midst. Three Ascendants at the Third Dan, a level most Ascendants would never reach in their lives even if they were given forever to work at it.

Yet it was because of this silence that it was possible to hear a slight keening sound, emerging from around Rowan\'s body, and the gaze of the entire Ascendants turned to him in astonishment and a hint of fear.

It could be slightly reasoned off if this monster was able to fight against the shackles of the Second Dan Ascendants, but to still have the power to struggle against the Third Dan was crazy. The difference between a Second Dan and the Third Dan was a gulf that was wider than the spaces between the heavens and the earth, for a seeming mortal creature to venture onto this realm was frightening.

What happened shocked them even further, Rowan who should have been frozen in place began to move.

It was slow as if he was a mortal moving through concrete, but it could not be denied that he was moving under the influence of a Third Dan. His head was slowly turning and he was stretching out his right hand as if he was about to give a sign, but his movements were so sluggish it would take nearly a minute for him to make a full range of motion.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Among the Ascendants was one who stood out among the rest even among the Third Dans, where the rest were outlined in darker shades, this Ascendant was pure white and gleaming like the sun, it was not difficult to feel the resonance between this Ascendant and one of the three suns overhead, this was a direct bloodline of the three most powerful Ascendants.

His voice was strong and commanding like an Emperor,

"Although we can all see it, it still boggles the mind. This individual is a pure Explorer with no taint of Calamity within, and the stores of Aura he contains are... unfathomable. When did such a monster arise? What abomination has the lower realms unleashed? Why can I not find the soul of Rais in the memory? Well, If I cannot find it, then let the memory of the Threshold speak for you."

With a wave of his hand, the surrounding space rippled, and the events of the past began to replay itself in front of all the Ascendants.

They all watched in reverse as the battle happened, but with their enhanced consciousness there was no confusion about what was transpiring.

They saw the explosion that killed the Divine Ascendant roll back into his body and the short and bitter battle between the Divine Ascendant and Rowan.

Inside the space imprisoning Rowan, his eyes went cold as a red light bloomed on his palm. His motion was not needed, he just needed to hide the arrival of Calamity for as long as

possible.
