The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1652

Chapter 1652: Origin Sap

"Why does learning have to hurt?" Rowan growled internally, but he was aware that this occurred only because the Obsidian Abyss had been corrupted by the death of Reality and the touch of the Primordials.

As if acknowledging his thoughts, the voice of Reality, which was growing more animated, spoke to him, teaching him about this layer of the void.

"My children were beautiful and free, until they brought hunger into my domain."

Surprised by these words, Rowan began to ask questions, but he never got any more answers, only more knowledge. However, this was good because the answer he was seeking would be revealed in time, as long as he digested all there was to know about this layer of the void.

Once more, time stood still, and forever and a moment became one. Rowan sank into learning, disregarding the pain that came with this process.

He could handle the pain better because he was aware that the opportunity for him to grasp the origin of the void was fleeting, and the only reason the process was going relatively smoothly was due to the negligence of the Primordials.

As Rowan had come to observe, the Primordials were simply borrowing the mechanisms of Creation and were doing nothing to improve it or make it better. Every evolution, every growth of any species in Reality had already been written by Eosah, and the Primordials had just taken the glory for all to it, even calling her Essence their own.

For a long time, this had served them well; they were destroyers, after all, not creators. However, if only they had taken the time to learn and improve on Eosah’s creations, then they would have instantaneously seen through Rowan’s plans, especially when it came to the matter of Origin.

This did not make what he was doing any less dangerous. If he were caught, he would be ganged up on by all the Primordials, and this time, they would make sure he was dead because what he was doing was many times more terrible than the creation of a New Light that was directly challenging the domain of Primordial Light.

There must be a price for negligence, and the Primordials had failed here only because they could never have believed that there might be someone who could be able to touch the origin of a concept without them being at the Primordial level.

At this time, Rowan’s dimensional flesh had become filled with countless numbers of these Hollow Titans, but he was here for knowledge, and he did not fight against their invasion. He was rapidly reaching his limits, but his knowledge base was growing faster than his limitations. As he knew more about the Obsidian Abyss, his dimensional flesh grew to reflect those changes.

This trend continued until Rowan crossed a threshold in his understanding, and the Hollow Titans feasting on his flesh paused, and the first of them that entered his body held its head and screamed before it exploded into enriching essence that flooded Rowan’s veins.

This was just the beginning. As the second Hollow Titan exploded, and then the second and then the third, before long, a storm was born in Rowan’s veins as countless Titans began to shatter, and their essence filled Rowan.

For the barest of moments, Rowan’s body was filled with the essence of the Hollow Titans, which were toxic to him because they were filled with the aura of Eosah, a dead reality. But then a spark ignited inside Rowan’s dimensional flesh, and this dead essence was like fuel that had been hit by a spark, and fire was born in his veins.

In the darkness, Rowan became the only light.

Long before the first heartbeat, before veins carried life in crimson rivers, there existed Primordial Sap. It was not merely a biological substance but a metaphysical current, the raw essence of creation itself, pulsing through the arteries of Reality, and from it came the Essence that the Primordials had fed upon.
