The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1224

Chapter 1224: Battle Of The Ascendant Sun

There was a battle beyond this one, being played on a realm beyond the mundane, and any action he was making must depend on making sure that both sides were balanced. He could not make any move in rashness or he would lose, there had been too many sacrifices to get to this point, and a single mistake at the crucible would trigger a massive crash.

He placed down his hand and the Aura of Calamity faded, his hope was for the Ascendant Suns to hold back the Eye of Time long enough for him to finish the merger.

Not letting the increasing rumbling distract him, he closed his eyes and eagerly followed the completion of his dimension. There were unique changes ongoing that resembled chains being broken, and a sleeping giant being roused from its million years slumber.

The vortex in his mental space had unexpectedly begun to expand once more, in a series of massive bursts that stretched his mental space and began crushing it; in the process, it began to consume the blue elements that made up the mental space of his Ascendant body.

Rowan flinched, the pain from this process was horrifying and unexpected, but he quickly suppressed it, noticing that the consumed elements of his mental space were being used to create a road, a blue road that penetrated the vortex. Each tile on that road seemed ridiculously strong and heavy, it was a road made for enormous titans to walk on.

A loud shriek drew his attention, followed by a massive shockwave that Rowan sliced through with a flick of his finger when it reached him, and he opened his eyes to see that the nothingness ahead had been torn in two, and an Ascendant Sun had fallen, on the verge of death, spread around him were the bodies of millions of lesser Ascendants.

There was a dissipating body of a massive tentacle-like beast that Rowan had seen clash with the Eye of Time, it had been sliced into many pieces.

Whatever battle had been going on inside the space of nothingness was so terrible that the Ascendant Suns had taken their humanoid form to battle against the Eye of Time,

disregarding the massive sphere they usually took.

They appeared similar to normal Ascendants, whose forms were usually like spirit beings wearing long robes, but their bodies blazed with bright light and unlike the wispy bodies of lesser Ascendants, you could see glowing bones beneath their flowing robes that appeared to be made of sunlight.

The fallen Ascendant Sun was on his knees, and a dreadful wound that was bleeding sunlight had been made from his shoulder down to his waist, nearly separating him in two pieces. An angry purple flame was burning in the wound, not letting this Ascendant Sun heal and although he was in great pain, there was still enough awareness inside him to hurriedly clap his hands together to stop a descending blade that would have sliced his skull in two. The Eye of Time was revealed and his present state was terrible, large gaping holes that poured out flames festooned its body, and the two mundane eyes in its head were gone, leaving a gaping hole that bled fire, the Ascendant Suns must have found a way to link to the powers of Ascendancy inside the shell of the Eye of Time and they had made it attack the Eye itself.

This fragment of a Primordial had to fight two battles, both within and outside, and armed with only a blade it was winning, although it was costly to it. The phantom of the Primordial behind it was nearly gone, but a portion of its tentacles had weirdly merged with the shell of the Eye of Time, giving the body of the Third Prince dozens of tentacles for legs.
