The Primordial Record - Chapter 1924: Merging With The Azure Empyrean
Chapter 1924: Merging With The Azure Empyrean
Exploring the Origin of Space was a path of the Ancient Primordial, but the fundamental concepts behind this exploration were the same, and the New Primordials would benefit from watching Rowan’s Supreme mastery over the void.
In many ways, the mastery of the Ancient Paths was much harder than the new paths of the Primordials, requiring a much greater draw on the talents of the wielder, and so if the Primordials watching were extremely observant, all their questions from the first to the fourth layer of Origin would be easily solved.
Now, if there was a layer for them beyond the fourth level, that would be for them to explore, and Rowan’s actions here were the greatest help he could ever give them.
With his mastery over Origin Force, Rowan could have easily skipped through the processes of becoming a Primordial without manifesting it outward, to an observer, they would simply see Rowan close his eyes an Old One, and a moment later, he would open it a Primordial, but for the sakes of his children and everyone who saw him as the last light guiding them through the dark, he went slow.
Ensuring that his body, spirit, and soul were fully opened to the sights of Eos, who must fully comprehend everything that happened during this process, ROwan stopped his wait and focused on his ascension.
He was holding the green flame above his palm, and his body and the flame were clearly seen by the ten Primordials, while for everyone else, they saw a massive tongue of green flame hovering above the center of the road, pulsing with vitality, and more souls were entering the Road of Eternity when they heard that not just any one was becoming a Primordial, but the greatest power in all existence, Rowan Kuranes.
And following what was expected from his majesty, everyone who was able to reach the Road of Eternity was about to gain benefits that would change their lives and reshape their future.
All of Reality went mad as the activity of the countless quadrillions of planets, stars, and other heavenly bodies ground to a halt, and everyone who was able to reach the Road of Eternity pushed their souls toward that place.
Of course, there were those who, even in this new reality where power and the chance to reach for the heavens were at their fingertips, refused to cultivate and continue living their lives as mortals. Rowan had created a fair reality where suffering and wars were not nonexistent, but rare, as it was frowned upon.
They could only watch, some in shock, others in regret, some were resentful, and others did not care. Rowan had gone back in time from the beginning of Eosah’s Reality and resurrected every life that had ever lived. Some of these lives were great immortals in the past, and when offered a second chance, simply chose to live the rest of their lives as mortals, when they were assured that their new home would be peaceful.
The path of existence usually followed the trend of the strongest. Rowan did not crave mindless violence but pursued power and knowledge with bone breaking intensity, his attitude was adopted by the Primordials, and the Old Ones under the Primordials followed their lead, and so too did the immortals follow the general trend adopted by the Old Ones, and the mortals had no choice but to bend to the new way of living where violence was the last option.
Reality was technically infinite and there was no way violence could ever be ended, not unless Rowan deprived all life of their free will, but the general trend of life was peace and progress, and although wars had never ended as ancient and new feud arose everyday, the greatest reason for conflict which was to seek the path to true immortality had been opened to all, and it took the truly depraved individual to sought out conflict where there was no reason to chose this option.
The policing force governing their sector of Reality was always busy, and even in this most crucial moment where any right-thinking individual should be aiming to reach the Road of Eternity, some chose to seek revenge and pursue conflict.
However, there were countless scenes in different worlds where mortal creatures, from man to fish to trees, pushed out their souls to the heavens for the chance to become strong.
All of this entered the eyes of Rowan, and he observed all in silence, even as he learned from them. The green flame on his palm began to shrink until it was the size of a small seed, and when its glow was about to disappear, its shape began to distort into broken geometry and distorted signs, before it transformed into a rune.
This rune was about to fall on Rowan’s palm when he caught it between his fingers and slowly brought it to his forehead. He pressed it into his skin, and he whispered, “The first Seed of the Void, the Azure Emprean has taken root.”
The rune on his forehead pulsed with radiance before extending ephemeral roots that began to spread all over his body, piercing through every particle that made up Rowan Kuranes, down to the depths of his soul. It was painful, but pain was no longer a burden to Rowan. Like the Primordials watching him, Rowan was also devoted to this process.
His Incarnation body after countless experiments in the past could be made from virtually anything associated with Eos, and knowing that this body would be becoming a Pirmordial, Eos had ensured that the Incarnation had started life as a mortal, but the time used from becoming a mortal to the eight dimensional level hardly surpassed a few seconds, that ascension was irrelevant, what was important was that the foundation was complete.
If Eos had not taken a different path that led him to become a dimension and was restricted to being an immortal alone, his body would most likely be equal to this Incarnation.
From the moment he was a mortal until he reached the immortal level, this Incarnation had been focused on the power of Space, ensuring that his body, spirit, and soul were fully melded with the power of Space. Rowan had already mastered the Origin Force of Space, but he was a perfectionist, and even if such a perfect foundation were not needed, he would never do anything in half measures. Every step must be made in perfection.
When the first layer of the void, the Azure Empyrean, began merging with all of him, Rowan’s consciousness was taken to a place he did not recognize.
At first, all he saw was nothingness, an absolute lack of anything, not even the smallest particle of existence existed, and Rowan was shaken because he recognized a similar kind of nothingness, but this one was older… more pure, as if this was the nascent state of existence before anything came to life.
Time did not exist here, and so there was no way to tell how long his consciousness remained in this place. And when he was about to forcefully rip out his consciousness from this place, he saw something emerging in the nothingness.
Distance was almost impossible to judge here, but he thought that whatever was emerging from the nothingness must have come from a distant place, and Rowan’s definition of distant at his present level could be seen as a place that was on the other side of Limbo, and even with his full powers, it may take an unknown amount of years to cross the distance and look at what was emerging from the nothingness.
Rowan focused all of his perception on this emerging anomaly, and yet he nearly missed it.
One moment, there was a glint of light in the distance, and then that light had swept over him and disappeared, leaving Rowan astounded. He had never seen speed like this in his entire life, even though he knew it was possible; this was only on a theoretical standpoint.
He turned around, and whatever it was had disappeared, but the nothingness around him was beginning to change. Whatever that light was, it brought change into this blank scene, and although the light moved very quickly, Rowan would have sworn that he saw great white wings passing over him.
The nothingness shuddered, and Rowan’s consciousness was vibrating alongside it, and he watched as countless colors were born, but they were all dim in his sight apart from a few of these colors, and he instinctively knew he was looking at the birth of existence as he knew it, and those colors he was recognizing were the color of Space.
“Those wings… was that the creator of existence?”
