Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1789

Chapter 1789: Unfathomable Gap

Sylas knew that there would be aspects of Salivar's bloodline and past that he couldn't understand. While the man was only of the E-tier now, his parents and his Race were certainly well beyond that. As such, there were hidden complexities in his Race, Potential, and Free Chaos that made things not as straightforward to decipher as one would hope.

But even so, this was part of what made Reaper Sealwright so powerful. It was true that Sylas could never get a full picture. In fact, the Races and people that he could get a full scope of understanding from would likely be those he would never bother to use Reaper Sealwright on in the first place.

What he could see, though, was enough.

'I see. He has the special ability to split his Will Core. He had three of them, and that in turn split the layers above it. He then used his Race Quintessence to stabilize his Will Cores enough that they can all be active at the same time.'

This sounded simple, but it was highly complex.

Race Quintessence was the deepest layer aside from Free Chaos and Potential. Will Core was one layer above that. Will Manifestation was a layer above that, followed by Soul Constructs and finally Comprehension.

Will Core could be considered to be the soul in a lot of aspects. It was where the vague, amorphous concept of personhood resided. By comparison, everything below it-Race Quintessence, Free Chaos, and Potential-were all things that formed the body itself. None of these three layers were exactly what made a person a person.

It could be said that Race Quintessence, Free Chaos, and Potential were the foundations of the body, a vessel in the physical world. Will Core was the first stake in the ground that made life truly life. While everything else was decided by your parents or what the universe randomly decided to assign to you, the things above that were what made you, you.

To split your Will Core was quite the task. It was no wonder Salivar struggled so mightily to progress. It would likely only have gotten more difficult for him as he progressed further through the tiers. Maybe Sylas had even done him a favor. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Still, understanding this and how it worked didn't exactly help Sylas to replicate it. It wasn't that easy.

Plus, Sylas was really pushing it at this point. His mind needed rest, and he seemed to refuse to give it.

Well, he had other reasons for that...

Unsurprisingly, the Void Domain was a lot easier to replicate. Sylas could use the Life Seal to pull out the exact sequence of Runes that caused it. It was hidden within Salivar's eyes.

However, though the Runes were E-tier, they were quite extensive.

Sylas reversed things using the Death Seal and then saw the version of the Seeing Eye before it progressed to E- tier. After seeing the F-tier version, he was able to replicate it quite easily.

'It would take me some time to finish casting this in battle. Though...'

An idea came to Sylas' mind.

Part of Sylas' new method of Archon Casting, and what allowed him to trigger Primus Luminaria in this new Sector, was a new method he had of connecting with the Mesh of Reality and the Void it overlaid.
