The Primordial Record - Chapter 991 Doom Star
Chapter 991 Doom Star
Rowan had intentionally left his Soul Mountains untouched for all this while so he could push forward at once. Knowing that his bloodlines would require greater amounts of soul energy with each upgrade, and now with the Supreme Circles, that number would reach an unreasonable amount.
The Soul Crystals he had accumulated after the war and the time in the Frozen Waste had reached an egregious number, and it would have to be enough for what he was going to do in the near future. At least he hoped it would, each Supreme Circle was technically a condensation of every technique in existence, distilling all their strengths into a single form, such a technique would require a stupendous amount of resources to complete. Yet if there was anyone who would ever complete the Supreme Circle, it was Rowan.
There was a roar like a fierce storm and the world was consumed in darkness, the red flowers that had bloomed over the entire world vanished. The last traces that his mother had ever existed in the outside world were no more.
Her absence left a void.
Rowan rose in the air, every trace that he had been sad or angered was gone, and there was only focus left, that was the state Old Man Seed and Elura saw when they returned to him. He had reversed his appearance to become more mundane, his diamond-like hair replaced with blond, and his prismatic eyes now green, his features were sharpened in some areas and softened in others, making his impossible beauty become something tolerable.
“Thank you for your gift Elura, and your sacrifice, I will not forget it.” Rowan bowed towards her, and she nodded stiffly, before turning away and vanishing after she whispered certain words to Old Man Seed.
The old man nodded and regarded Rowan for a while, he closed his eyes as if he were deliberating on a decision, and he finally nodded,
“Now you did it,” Old Man Seed grinned, “The vaults of her endless wealth have been opened to you, and paired with mine, then there should be no reason that you cannot complete your Circles in record time. Your soul is powerful, what you require is resources. However, the first thing you will need to do is to activate the four Circles you have manifested, and they cannot be done in this place, the commotion would be too much and you would lead all of reality to your doorstep, it will have to be done over there!”
Rowan followed Old Man Seed’s pointed hand to the sky, a moment before the world around them ceased to exist leaving them in a void devoid of stars and any other heavenly bodies, above them was a massive entity that resembled a supermassive star but one that was burning with green and black flames, but it was not exuding any heat, in fact, the opposite, it was draining all forms of energy around it, leaving a null zone around its entire form.
This was only the visual representation of this star, what Rowan’s senses picked up when it brushed against it was different, malignancy, rage, pain, despair, anger, hate, regret… such intense feelings of wrongness assaulted his senses that he nearly gagged, and this was Rowan, he dreaded to think what someone weaker would feel if they saw this star.
It almost reminded him of Limbo, that dreaded place he had seen after all of reality had been crushed, but this one was different, it seemed to be…growing. There were things that it lacked and others that Rowan did not recognize. Was this place alive?
Old Man Seed nodded when he saw that Romion had seen this star and easily shrugged off its effects, even if Romion had been unable to withstand the gaze of this star, he would have found a way to provide immunity for him because this was one of the only places in reality where he should be able to fully activate his Supreme Circles without unnecessary interventions from outside parties.
“What is this place?” Rowan gagged as he felt the urge to throw up filled his senses, this reaction surprised him, and he wondered if he allowed his body to follow up with the sensations, what sort of things would he be spewing from his mouth?
Nevertheless, he would not be following that train of thought, because if he permitted it, then that meant he would be giving some of the control of his body over to the green star, and that was not something he was interested in. The thought though, intrigued him.
Old Man Seed focused on the star before speaking slowly,
“There were certain places that were created during the Primordial Era, and perhaps before that Era, who knows, many events are buried in the dust of time. These places remain to this day. There are also certain special structures that defy the change of an Era and would most likely remain until the end of existence. You see, it is not only the domains of the Primordial that stand eternal, there are several unique places in reality that define meaning. There are four of these that I know, perhaps there are more, but that number would not be greater than six or at most ten. The one before you is called Doom Star.”
That name seemed to trigger a reaction as Rowan watched in avid fascination as a massive storm began to brew on the surface of the star, with the size of the star, the storm must stretch for tens of thousands of light years.
The storm coalesced, and it took the form of a massive green and yellow eye that peered into reality, looking around, it focused in the direction, but it could not penetrate the barrier that Old Man Seed had spread over both of them.
“It is alive?” Rowan asked,
“In a manner,” Old Man Seed frowned, “But the devastation that heralded its birth fractured the Will it contained, and so it could never take a singular Will. It is a good thing that happened, or else this entity would be at least at the eighth-dimensional level… a truly frightening thought.”
As Rowan watched, multiple storms arose from the star creating more eyes on the surface, and the frown lines on Old Man Seed’s face deepened,
“I cannot hide from its gaze for long. I mentioned its name to call attention to me, and in a short while, it would break through my barrier, but by then I expect you to find your way into it while I hold its gaze. You will not have long.”
Now it was the turn for Rowan to frown, at this point in time, he did not want to be near any creature or entity with such a power level, especially one that was as terrifying as this. But there must be good reasons why Old Man Seed would want him to take such a place,
“Why should I enter such a terrifying place?”
“Great question Romion, even if it is the only possible question you can ask. Its simply because only inside this place can you find your equals.”
Rowan looked at Old Man Seed with a weird glow in his eyes, “I have no equal.” Rêađ lat𝒆st ch𝒂pters on n𝒐/v/𝒆/l(b)i𝒏(.)c𝒐m
Old Man Seed simply smiled, “Then this would burst your bubble.”
