Chapter 1182: Extending Space

Rowan nodded at the Shiik and he reached his Ascendant body and merged with it. He held back from completing the merger, observing the state of his Ascendant body.

Outwardly it might resemble a simple lump of metal, but within was something special. It was as if one had been transferred to an alien city. Vast connections made with metallic cables that extended into the distance crisscrossed the internals of his Ascendant body, making it appear as if it was filled with countless metallic spider webs.

It was only a structure like this that could hold Rowan's soul that was now more powerful than an Ascendant Sun.

Rowan had been able to briefly roam around the realm with his soul because the transformation caused by his bloodline of Time gave his soul a sort of fleshy outer body covering that could imperfectly hide his soul power for a while, but it was not perfect. This was why none of his children could see his face or come near him.

If he did not return to his Ascendant body, the presence of his soul would begin transforming the world around him until he would begin shining as brightly as the Ascendant Suns overhead, and that was the least amount of changes he was expecting.

He found the center of his body, where the metal webs were thickest and his soul pushed itself into the webs of metal, making him look like a mannequin that had been pierced with a million spikes, as he laid out spredeagled.

The picture his figure painted was grim-he was like a soul that was crucified, but one who walked in knowing his fate. With the level of his soul, it was almost as if it was rejecting the Ascendant body, angered that it was being used to contain it, but it was only satisfied knowing it was just for a short while before it was merged back to its rightful place.

Rowan gasped, the feeling of entering the center of his Ascendant body was strange, perhaps it was the addition of the bloodline of Time, but the sensation was almost... visceral, reaching places in his mind he rarely touched, but mostly, it just felt cold, and he knew what it required was his warmth to give it life, it was created to house the soul of Rowan, a living dimension.

He turned both of his fists around and grabbed dozens of spikes and with a roar, he released his soul essence to flood into the metal. There was a clear ringing sound that was ear piercing and accompanied by Rowan's roar, a golden light that emerged from his soul like an ocean erupted.

The golden light filled the spikes and began traveling to all corners of the Ascendant body. Rowan's roar seemed to have no ending so too was the golden wave erupting from his body until the entire internals of the Ascendant body shone as bright as a star.

From outside the Ascendant Spike rumbled and it began to grow, releasing clear golden lights that would have illuminated millions of miles, but under the frozen time Rowan had imposed on the entirety of the continent of Trion, it did not exceed more than a few thousand feet away from the golden spike.

The spikes began to extend dramatically, its previous length of 144,000 feet, ballooned in length, it grew thousands of miles in a few seconds with no indication it was about to stop growing. The City Rowan built could hold a much greater amount of space in a limited area, but even this fantastical place could not maintain the unreasonable growth of his body.
