The Primordial Record

Chapter 948 Power Of a World Bearer

‘Nothing! What did he mean by nothing and how could nothing power something as vast and powerful as a dimension?’

Rowan wanted to protest at the unnecessary theatrics from Old Man Seed, and then he paused, his mind whirling through the possibilities of what he had just heard. Previously the concept of Nothingness to him meant the absence of something. Still, as he delved deeper into the mysteries of creation, he knew that Nothingness was a conceptual force as real as Time and Space, and he had glimpsed a portion of its awful power when he had summoned the Chains of Time from their hidden depths.

His eyes lit up and he looked at Old Man Seed who was watching him with a sort of fascinated look like a mortal watching a rat performing hand-stands.

“Why am I not surprised that you are able to glimpse a part of the truth from what I said. Nothingness should be a concept you should not even begin to touch until you possess a fifth-dimensional power, and yet here you are, a mortal with the touch of Nothingness in your Aura. Somehow that does not even scratch the fact that you are a World Bearer! A mortal World Bearer boy. It is amazing to me you can achieve so much while being so ignorant about the true nature of reality.”

In Rowan’s head, he could still hear the cries of the Third Prince, “I knew you would be able to acquire power, so I stripped the universe of knowledge.”

Rowan bowed, and brought out another dozen bottles of wine, “I barely understand the concept of Nothingness and how it is related to dimensions. Teach me.”

The old man smiled and threw a bottle into his mouth and chewed, “A World Bearer is a title that is one of the most sought after in all of creation. The reason is simple, it gives the user the ability to place their dimensional powers in reality, placing their roots in the nothingness and giving the essence of their power a corporeal form.”

Rowan shook in realization and the old man gave forms to the realization in his mind, “Yes, every great dimension you can see outside the Great Darkness, is only possible if you become a World Bearer. This is the dream of every higher dimensional Will Holder, to become a World Bearer and finally give form to the powers because every Will Holder would find ascending up the dimensional ladder a thousand times easier than a normal Will Holder, so you can imagine with such an advantage, why the title of a World Bearer is so precious.”

This information stunned him, the Steele had granted him the title of a World Bearer after Rowan had made a World Core using his knowledge, but he did not realize the full implications of his actions, and how far-reaching they could become outside in reality.

Rowan did not know how others gained access to the power of a World Bearer, but the method he used was quite special since he began creating his World Core using Soul Origin. With this in mind was it possible that he could… No, that should not be permitted.

The old man did not realize the thoughts going through Rowan’s mind as he continued, “That is also the reason why no World Bearer would enter a higher dimensional world without properly shielding their World Bearer status, or that dimension would assimilate you. You are lucky that you entered the dimension of a Prime as gentle as the Eldar with a Prime bloodline to boot, or else you would be consumed faster than you even realized.”

Due to his status as a Dimension, he knew that consuming him would not be as simple as Old Man Seed seemed to think, but it was a relevant warning about how ignorant he was about reality. The fact that he had never met another World Bearer led to this frightening gap in his knowledge, a gap he would need to quickly fix.

He bowed again towards Old Man Seed and watched as his eyes brimmed with satisfaction and he drew his hands down his long white beards.

“I hid the fact that you are a World Bearer from Elura, and hid it with something equally as shocking; that is you have a third-dimensional Will, because of everyone who should know you possess this trait, your mother should be the last.* ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Rowan’s eyes sharpened at those words, he remembered that when Old Man Seed first introduced himself, he told Rowan the solution to his problems would be placing his foundations in the Nothingness, and he had not understood what he meant, but after Elura arrived he had changed the solution to his ‘problem,’ taking Rowan to a place that should be outside the sphere of Elura in order to give him a ‘better’ path.

He had not imagined at first that the reason the old man chose to take that decision was to hide his title of a World Bearer.

Rowan spoke slowly, seemingly choosing his words carefully, “Why would that information about me not be shown to her?”

The old man was silent for a long while, and when he replied it was with a troubled frown, “I come from an older Era, and I have reached the peak of my state, there are no more castles for me to conquer, and no more towers to climb, I have seen what lies ahead of me, and I am satisfied to remain in my position, some burdens are too heavy to bear… but there are younger generations with the light of ambition still strong in their hearts, I know of few that can match your mother. This is all I will say on this matter, a word is enough for the wise.”

Rowan silently withdrew more exotic wines and passed them over, and the bright light in the old man’s eyes shone brighter as he laughed, seemingly forgetting the somber mood of a moment back.

“What I am about to show you is something that you would need if you intend to survive the coming days. Your potential is unmatched and therefore the things you should be capable of should also be unmatched. This is the real price of me teaching you. I might not be able to go any higher, but I want to see the work of my hand reach those heights I can only dream about.”

Clapping his hands suddenly together Old Man Seed exclaimed, “Now enough about those topics, it is time you learn about the Supreme Circles and why I selected this road for you, but it will ultimately depend on your strength of will if you are able to walk it, I can promise you miracles, but it would depend on you if you can carry them.”

Rowan bowed his head in thought and although many things would have gone through his mind, none of them showed when he looked back up to Old Man Seed, “Show me,” he said.

Nodding slowly, Old Man Seed growled, “I can easily instruct you about the concept of the Circles, but it would be better if I showed you. Before then, we are about to arrive at our destination, and now it is time to give you a warning about where you are and the location I am taking you to. I am about to reveal one of the fundamental secrets of existence to you, but you are more of an Old One than a mortal, and you should be able to take it… I hope.”
