The Primordial Record novel Chapter 461

Chapter 461 Suppressing The Soul

The green fog that had surrounded this place was poisonous but it was not enough to phase Rowan, something was different about what had just occurred.

Rowan did not have time to deliberate again as his sight fell into darkness and returned, this was happening because his eyes were melting from their sockets.

This happened hundreds of times in less than a second, and Rowan looked away as he shifted the two halves of the remnant of the Divine Spark away from him, realizing that what he was holding was an incredibly toxic poison.

Rowan looked down at his body in puzzlement. Unknowingly he had withered away until he resembled a skeleton before it filled back up with muscles.

Rowan opened his mouth and emitted a large blast of green gas that melted the floor for thousands of feet. He had been deeply poisoned by just staring at the green grains.

What was weird was that he had not felt any bit of pain during this process, and if not for the unreasonable nature of his regeneration, he would have died without even understanding how it happened. For someone with Rowan's perception, that was an incredible feat to accomplish. Whatever this poison was, it was not straightforward.

It seemed to contain a method that could deceive the senses, even for someone like him.

Dao Ma had not been able to use his poison after Rowan snatched his scepter, and if he was not wrong the god was going to be using this poison as his foundation to become a Major god, this makes whatever poison it was to be very special.

Furthermore, this poison was incredibly stable, surviving such an intense explosion without any change in its properties. By itself, this poison would be difficult to truly harm Rowan, but if it was driven by Intent then it would elevate its danger to another level.

He was not too interested in its poisonous aspects but he wanted to understand the methods that were used to cloud his Perception. If he could do so, then it might turn out to be one of his greatest harvests today.

Rowan brought the two halves of the Divine Spark together sealing away the poison, as he was busy with this task, a great skeletal apparition with a vague resemblance to Dao Ma rose from the fog behind Rowan and looked at him with great hatred before attempting to leave but after moving a short distance away from Rowan it halted, as an inexorable force began to suck it back towards Rowan.

The Apparition shrieked in surprise, fighting against the pull, but although it was powerful, ultimately every effort to escape was futile, for the mark of Rowan's blow was embedded into its soul, and its fate was decided with that single blow.

Noticing his relaxed demeanor, she breathed a sigh of relief and began speaking,

"The first steps are completed, the gods are rousing, and we have barely hours for you to collect your prize and lay low for a while."

Eva manifested a glowing chart of the Cerulean Galaxy showing him all the spots of attention, especially the 212 Minor Worlds that were glowing in gold as an indicator that these were now his own.

Rowan nodded, "let us leave. The plan went flawlessly, especially your ingenious methods of draining his energy and your Formations. Thank you, Eva."

Eva smiled and bowed, and they both vanished in a bright flash of light. The Ouroboros Serpents finished devouring any choice bits of material inside the Divine Kingdom that caught their attention, including all the children of Dao Ma, and with a roar they pierced through the spatial barrier surrounding it and left, returning to Rowan.

The Divine Kingdom slowly fell to the endless golden web and was shrouded in fog and an intense storm, as new changes began to be enacted on them.
