The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1170

Chapter 1170: You Did Good

This was all Shisu's soul was able to do-bear the Memory, but when Rowan began making sweeping changes throughout history, and without Shisu being able to utilize his Aura to support these changes, then it began to eat at his soul, using it for fuel to support this dimension.

His understanding of Will began to grow at a ridiculous speed, especially on matters of the sixth dimension, he could not have asked for a better lab rat. Any sixth-dimensional Will Holder that was to be found outside of reality would only reach this level after they had crossed over countless challenges and deadly dangers, they would be the best of the best out of countless geniuses for a nearly infinite pool of universes.

Even if they were weaker than Shisu in raw power, they would understand a far more intricate method of wielding their abilities and they would have something that this realm solely lacked, and that would be treasures!

The World's Will must have been aware of this lack when it introduced the concept of Natal Treasure to this realm, but it was not a great substitute for what could be found in the outside reality. Rare and powerful treasures that could protect the soul, powerful spells and enchantments, unknown lifeforms that could be raised by the higher dimensional being to boost any sort of weakness they had and so much more, meant that Rowan could have never succeeded against a similar opponent like Shisu if this was to be the outside reality.

This difference could not be clearer when Shisu had been holding a Sin weapon inside his body for almost ten million years and he was unaware of the power he was holding, instead, he had been using the barest emanations surrounding this weapon as a source of power... pitiful.

If not for the presence of the World's Will that would strip away the powers of anyone who entered this realm, reducing them to almost nothing, then Rowan feared that the inhabitants of this realm would have been killed off a long time ago to harvest their powers.

Perhaps there had been other visitors in the past who entered this realm, but the cycle of Ascendancy and Calamity had been so short that Rowan was sure that the interior of Doom Star would be different because as far as he could tell, the entire civilization of Ascendants had nor even crossed the fifty million years mark and Doom Star was a realm that had existed before the Supreme Era and who knew how far into the Primordial Era.

He could not afford to be arrogant when he faced Ascendants, because in a manner they were still children in the larger scheme of things, the true horror of this realm still lay beneath the facade of Ascendancy and Calamity, but for now, he would be delving deep into Ascendancy and using the knowledge he could gain to further his dimensional pursuits.

After crossing his Tribulation and becoming a fourth-dimensional entity, maybe even higher, he would take his revenge against the Undying, and he would leave this realm, if the World's Will sought to stop him then Ascendancy and Calamity would fall.

Shisu had the Will of Hate. This made him an embodiment of this concept. This Ascendant was self-serving, vain, hateful, spiteful, greedy, and hundreds of other negative packages all rolled up in a deeply sociopathic psyche, and every moment that Rowan used his power to commit good deeds in the kingdom, he was mentally tearing Shisu's sanity to pieces.

Like a fish being forced to walk on land, Shisu's entire being revolted against what was being done to his Memory dimension, but his soul was under Rowan's control, and it was played like a fiddle. If there ever came a day when any mortal was able to dig hundreds of miles into the earth, there they would hear the screams of Shisu, a creature of hate whose power was being transformed to one of love.

With the power of this memory and the impressive strength of Shisu's soul, Rowan knew that Shisu would suffer for many millennia before his soul perished.

Killing a sixth-dimensional Ascendant turns out to be more lackluster than he expected, but he knew that the majority of his battles going forward might not be resolved so easily. Besides he was on the last stretch before everything came to a head, and the battles ahead would be rough.
