The Primordial Record

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.

It drew back its hand holding the blade jerking the Ascendant Sun forward while its left hand reached ahead and grabbed one of the rib bones of the Ascendant Sun, a twist and a pull and that piece of glowing bone was in his hand, purple flame poured from its hand and covered the bone and with a vicious thrust, he embedded it inside the eye socket of the Ascendant Sun whose screams of pain resonated throughout the realm,

"Dilos, help me!" he roared

The Eye of Time stated coldly, "No one can help you."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

With a gesture from the Eye of Time, the rib bone in the socket of the Ascendant Sun began to rotate, causing a fountain of flames and Ascendant Aura to erupt from the rapidly widening hole in the skull of the Ascendant Sun amidst its screams.

The pain the Ascendant Sun was experiencing loosened his hold on the blade, and it never got another chance to rectify that error. The blade on the hand of the Eye of Time danced, making tens of precise cuts, so fast that an element of Time must have been added to the attack, because the blade was cutting through time, from the past to the present, ensuring that no matter the Memory/Mind formation that was unleashed by the Ascendant Sun, it would be futile.

The skull of the Ascendant Sun screamed and a pillar of flame erupted from its neck, pushing it backward but it was ignored by the Eye of Time whose target was on the body parts left behind.

The tentacles surged forward, wishing to possess the body parts of the Ascendant Sun, its shell was on its last legs, and without further replenishment, it would collapse, but this was precisely the moment that Ascendant Sun Dilos chose to strike and even the retreating skull of Ascendant Sun Trelmol with only a single blazing eyes surged forward with vengeance in his heart.

Rowan watched the tense exchange that followed, noting the methods that these higher- dimensional entities fought with were both ingenious and spine-chilling.

Every move the Ascendant Suns made seemed simple but that was because their command over Will was near immaculate, but their opponent had perfect control over Will, the only drawback it faced was that its vessel could not express its power to its fullest extent.

The skull of Ascendant Sun Trelmol flashed and he regrew his body, disregarding what was lost because it could no longer gain anything from it again since the blade of the Eye of Time had severed whatever connection he had with it, series of runes and chants emerged from its mouths that flew towards the Eye of Time and with quick flashes of its blade, the Eye dismantled every single attack sent towards it.

Ascendant sun Dilos's attacks were as if the heavens were falling, as every motion of his brought with it such immense strength that nothing should be able to stand against them, space and time bent and shattered beneath his fury, and the realm trembled.

However, the Eye of Time met all of these powers and techniques, matched them, exceeded them, and countered them. With small motions of its blade, it cut through, diverted, reversed, and dismantled everything before it. Space and Time were under its control, and Rowan realized that this battle was already lost.

The Eye of Time could technically fight forever with this technique it was using, for it was burning essentially no energy at all, yet the two Ascendant Suns were giving their everything, and survival was only a matter of moments, they would fall in a short while.
