Chapter 180 Killing A Continent (5)

Rowan took a while to figure out how to dispel the black flames, as he was not in the habit of revealing his true capabilities. He did not care if the information of the flames were previously revealed, he would not keep it any longer than necessary.

He had only two reasons for coming back to the Covenant. It was to find out every information they knew about Anima, Primordial Aether and Aspects.

The second was to check the resources he had been placed inside the Interdimensional Storage Space by the Covenant to accelerate his so-called Infernal Spark.

The Oracle had obliged him on both requests, and he was able to learn what an Anima was. During Ascension into godhood, there is a chance to reach the Pillars of the Universe.

This was a mysterious location that no one knew its purpose or how it came to be, but while at this location, a god could gather as much Anima as their Divine Kingdom could hold.

Of course, this amount could differ widely among each god, but this was an essential material that would allow the god to access a new level of power and boost their Divine Spark. Without Anima, a god would never have access to Primordial Aether.

They could only access Primordial Aether in that brief window while connected to the Pillars of the Universe, but after that time was over, then the Anima they gathered would no longer have that properties of channeling Primordial Aether.

But, since Anima was proclaimed to be the most conducive properties in the universe with regard to channeling powers. Every major power that had access to Anima would use it to create simulacra of themselves that could be placed in different locations.

With its high conducive abilities, the god could channel most of his powers and could physically push a lot of their powers at the location where the simulacra were located.

With this method a god could be at many locations at the same time, even reach places they could no longer enter due to their Divine Nature. They used this method to exert their influences to the far corners of the universe without scruples.

Rowan likened Primordial Aether to be similar to the Empyrean Essence he once had access to when he was reborn as an Empyrean. But unlike the gods who received theirs at Ascension—Which would turn out to be the peak for most gods— he received his baptism of Primordial Aether at what could be likened to his birth, and he was sure in more plentiful quantities too.

No wonder the difference between a god and an Empyrean was so vast. Most god would only receive this blessing of Primordial Aether at their peak, limiting their growth to a great extent.

But for an Empyrean, they had so much more space to grow. From the moment of their birth, they now had more space to develop their powers, and they would inevitably leave all the gods behind.

Rowan had taken a lot of Primordial Aether from the Universe, when he was evolving his second bloodline, unlike with the Ouroboros bloodline where he used his Soul points to create the Empyrean Essence due to the presence of his shell.

For this second bloodline he basically just kept the channel open to the universe storehouse of Primordial Aether. The Soul Reaver bloodline did not have any shell to produce essence because fundamentally it was not a bloodline that could be produced by the universe.

He had basically stolen the lifeblood of the universe for himself.

He hoped it would not have any unknown negative consequences to him or the universe at large. He no longer looked down on his capabilities as before, as he knew he had the potential to rapidly change the universe if he was not careful.

Yet, Rowan felt any sort of results from his actions would later reveal themselves in their time. Those were matters he would not concern himself with for the moment.

Aspects were linked to the personal Domain of each god. So if a god like Boreas whose Domain concerns lightning and frost had access to Primordial Aether during his Ascension, he would be linked to Primordial Aether that was aspected to lightning and frost.

Rowan wondered if the direction his second bloodline evolved towards was because he used Primordial Aether aspected towards Darkness.

What if instead of Darkness he had access to other types of Aspects during it evolution, maybe flames or frost, would his evolved bloodline have become something else? n--0velB1n

Whatever the case might be, he was still amazed at the result, and he was sure Darkness should fit more with the Soul Reaver bloodline than any other Aspects. Plus Darkness was surely a very niche ability that he noticed that none of the gods on Trion had access to.

Which begged the question, who was the goddess leading the Order of the Broken Eye, was she a foreign goddess? If not, could a god have more than one Aspect?

These were very important questions, and he would prefer the former to be the case than the latter, as it would mean he could easily identify his prey, but if it was the latter, then it could mean a complex trail of deception, and his enemy could be a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Also, with the many fallen gods during the great war, and the foreign gods that would forever seek to return to Trion, there were many pool of suspects.

He would rather not make an enemy of all the gods because as far as he could tell, he may have only a singular goddess as his primary enemy, and he would prefer not to butcher all the gods of Trion just to find his prey.

Yet, he knew that a war was inevitable, unless he goes far from the influence of the gods of Trion, for no god would allow a power like his own grow unchecked in their domain.

Rowan knew to open a complicated knot, you just had to find a loose thread. He was going to find it.

His exploration of the Interdimensional Storage Space assigned by the Covenant was another brand-new experience. This storage space did not serve as the container for any of the resources he was allocated, but it served as a gateway to all of them.

Inside it were a series of mystical portals that led to various locations and items. Which made sense when you understand parts of the resources given to him.

For Rowan found himself the brand-new owner of a planet!

It was a minor world that was perilously close to a red sun, making it a world of endless flames. The majority of indigenous species of the world resembled flaming salamanders, and they were fierce and warlike.

There were no known sentient species on the planet, except for the giant magma golems, but they were now all dormant, as someone in the past took away all their cores.

It would take another ten thousand years before they would be able to regenerate new cores. It would seem Ohrox as a Demon of the Abyss, loved an environment such as these, that was why this planet was allocated to him as his staging area and his home in the Universe.

Yet, he knew the most important resource of this planet had been stripped away, which was most likely the golem core, just the fact it took ten thousand years to regenerate meant that this was a very scarce resource.

Rowan wasn't concerned about this detail, but the location of the planet, which he found to be in a separate galaxy from Trion itself.

Through the Covenant he learned that Trion dwelled on the Nebular Galaxy, a supermassive galaxy with two other Major World inhabiting it.

If he could develop outside of the reach of the gods of Trion, he would be able to finally rest with both eyes closed. His mind raced as he began considering all the elements of this new planet.
