The Primordial Record

Trypho, the Major World was at the center of the Cerulean Galaxy, but it was not as close to the other Minor Worlds around it, but was surrounded by millions of worlds and stars that were not as valuable, and so they were filled with various death traps and formation and was not suitable for life.

This was a defensive mechanism against invasion from outside the galaxy. If an enemy wanted to destroy their sole Major World, they would have to pass through endless miles of traps and fight pitched battles on worlds that were not considered valuable, thereby wasting a lot of their enemy's resources.

When the white light from the gigantic gate shone as it entered the universe, millions of worlds and stars around Trypho froze before crumbling to dust.

Although these planets were not suitable for life, there was still a large enough number on their surfaces, numbering in the hundreds of billions…

They all perished.

This happened so quickly that none of them was aware of their passing. One moment everything was going the way it should, and the next, everything was gone.

Rowan did not care for what was happening around him, he could feel his Mental Space shaking as a vast influx of souls streamed into it.

Although he had never wished to harvest souls in this manner, knowing this was just a spectacular waste of resources, he acknowledged that in battles of this level, such an event was bound to occur.

They were elephants, and the mortals were grass, when they battled… the grass would suffer.

His focus was fixed on the gigantic frozen gate ahead of him which was similar to a Spirit Matrix Gate, but that was like comparing a single brick to a thousand-story building. It was plain and unadorned, resembling two massive blocks of ice.

This frozen Spirit Matrix Gate was billions of miles wide and tall, almost dwarfing the Major World below, and the Aura it emanated swept throughout space, and the planet below began to shatter!

The Major World might have escaped annihilation due to its size and rugged strength, but it could not stand against the Aura from this frozen gate, and in a short while, ten percent of its surface was frozen and turned to dust.

"Is this my Spirit Matrix Gate?" Rowan muttered aloud.

Andar's Spirit Matrix Gate had appeared inside his Mental Space, similar to all other Mages, but Rowan's Spirit Matrix Gate appeared in reality.

Was this a feature of this Aspect, or was it related to his bloodlines? He dismissed this speculation he could not answer for the moment because Rowan had also recognized the mighty voice that rumbled through the universe. It was female, and he recalled a disdainful snort that ruined Andar's chance of obtaining the Lament of Celestial technique.

He grinned, even though his body was breaking apart from the light and the Aura emanating from the frozen gate, he could handle it for the moment, he was simply enjoying the sheer opposite emotions being felt by the same individual in such a short period, and her screams of rage was like honey to his ears.

He looked down and saw the three Major gods retreating in shock and fear, Tenma surrounded the planet below in an orb of darkness and began to pull it away halting its destruction, Rowan squinted his eyes at that action, but he ignored them for the moment.

He had lost Envy once, and he did not plan on losing his favorite weapon again. Rowan had noticed the longing gaze in the heart of Tenma, and if he thought he could easily take this weapon from his side, the gods could not be more mistaken.

Instead, Envy was a bait. Rowan was curious about what this god knew of this mysterious weapon, and if he was to kill a god of this caliber, then he would need to take some extra steps.

The destroyed gods were beginning to return, tearing apart space and their eyes were wide open with fear and astonishment when they all saw the sheer scale of the devastation around them that occurred in a mere moment.

Their lives and the galaxy would never be the same, and this damage did not just occur around them, but inside them as well, as curses began to break out as they looked into their Divine Kingdom, yet their anger was still muted before the vision of the frozen gate appearing above them.

What was happening now was breaking their godly minds.

Whatever was above them was not of this universe and possessed a magnificence and power that a god could never hope to acquire their entire life.

It was like revealing to a blind man who always thought that darkness was everything but was now shown all the myriad colors under the sky.

There was no framework inside their head that could make them understand how a power like this was possible, and this lack of knowledge brought them great fear, only the presence of Tenma and the two other Major gods gave them a little bit of relief.

If only they knew that Tenma was nearly going insane from fear they would have fled immediately, if what a Minor God could sense from the gate was already breaking their minds, what a Major God and higher could sense from it was much deeper, and like moths to a flame, they were ensnared in its web.

If they had fled at the start, they would have escaped this fatal allure, but after being in the presence of the gate for this long, they were no longer able to escape. Their only hope was for the gate to leave, or else they were trapped.

Rowan had no idea what was happening behind him, currently a force was combing through his body looking for something, and it did not take long for him to realize that this force was looking for his Spirit.

He frowned, he had none… but perhaps,

Rowan did not hesitate and activated a Single Consciousness Pillar and sent a wave of mental power towards that force which seized it and began to drag it towards the gate.

The massive frozen gate vibrated, the sound tore through reality, blasting apart the universe for countless miles and Rowan found himself outside the universe…

Outside the fucking universe!
