Chapter 1013: Time Wanderer
The Ascendants were unlucky if Rowan did not have the Eye they would have succeeded, and now freezing time was no longer an option against Rowan.
His Ouroboros Serpents, with their new cunning, had waited for the right moment to strike. Acting as if they were under the time-stop ability, the serpent had resisted its hunger long enough for one of its prey to come close enough before it struck.
For its patience, it was rewarded with a surge of Aura that dwarfed everything it had collected from the entire continent of New Hope, ten times over. The purple cube at the ends of their tail began to swell as a massive wave of blue Aura of Ascendency filled it to the brim.
There were two prime sources of energy in this world, Ascendant and Malefic. When someone earns the qualification to become an Explorer they are granted two options, follow the Ascendant path or the Malefic path.
Explorers that followed the Ascendant path became beings of pure Aura, and those that followed the Makefic path developed bodies that could effortlessly crush stars. Despite the path they followed their overall Aura would still be nourished by any source of purified Aura, whether it came from a malefic or an ascendant source.
There was a slight moment of destabilization within the cube as the energy inside it grew a bit unbalanced due to the influx of a large amount of a single type of Aura, but its state had already transformed twice, to its almost solid form instead of the gaseous nature of Aura and it was easily able to suppress the Ascendant Aura and make it part of itself with no issue. Of course, the serpents did not know about these changes in the cube, they only understood that it was growing, causing the light it shed on their bodies to deepen, and in this manner they could place more of their essence into this stone avatars, slowly transforming it into the real flesh of the Primordial Ouroboros Serpent.
This world might have imposed a leash on Rowan's bloodline and power, but it was impossible to hold back something so powerful. It was only a matter of time before his
bloodline would rebel against the restraints and although the bloodline of Sheol and the Tree of Desire had been out of the game for a while, the increasing purple light was slowly beginning to make them stir from their slumber.
The carefully created cage created by the world was about to be shattered.

With the death of every Deific Ranked Explorer, he became the only one that remained, and therefore the storage Treasure containing the Null Charges was all sent to him.
If he had died the Null Charges would return to the Ascendants but he was kept alive in a bizarre form, and everything remained with him.
There were more than a million Null charges in these storage treasures and for a moment Noah was helpless. Even with these Null Charges, it was still quite useless to him, what could The change with it?
Now knew he had already decided to change something, and if there was anything he did not lack in this present moment it was time. Noah spent an eternity learning, and then another eternity. He went mad many times, making vast leaps in logic that were mostly nonsense but some worked, and his understanding of Null Charges which was virtually nonexistent began
to grow.
He did not hope to understand everything about how this treasure worked, he had only one goal. 'How can I make it explode.'
With a limited understanding of how Null Charges worked, Noah believed they just negated all forms of energy, and that was true to an extent, but what they contained was something far more potent than Noah could ever hope to understand as a Deific Ranked Explorer, but he did not care, two million Null Charges going up at once was bound to change something.
Whether by luck or the fact that Noah had spent two eternities banging his head against a single problem-Make Null Charges go boom! He succeeded.
Noah wished he could laugh, but he also wished he could die, and he thought perhaps since he could not have one, he should not be annoyed that he could not get the other.
He triggered the explosion, and the moment the three Ouroboros Serpents charged out from the Earth, everything flashed red, even in the visible spectrum, from afar it appeared as if a red sun had appeared on the ground, and this sight could be seen for millions of miles, witnessed by a hundred continent, but this was just the beginning.
The Null Charges were not simple devices, for they were connected with a force even the Ascendants could barely understand, Entropy.
