The Primordial Record-Novel

Chapter 349 Power System

[A FEW MOMENT BEFORE THE AWAKENING OF ANDAR ERIKSON]

Rowan had learned a lot about Mages from the information his Angels gathered in the Empire and those now on the battlefield. If his main body was not slumbering then he would have gathered more detailed information from Covenant, but what he had now was enough.

Especially information about their passage to power which all began from their Spirit Matrix.

Every child born under the influence of the Supreme World of Mages had the potential to awaken their Spirit Matrix. This was not related to any bloodline they may have but it was an intrinsic quality that was a part of the people who were conquered or wished to stay under the umbrella of a Supreme World.

All these reminded Rowan about his World Seeds, and its ability to change the inhabitants into a form closer to himself. It would appear that such powers were granted also to the great powers of the Supreme World.

Perhaps the bloodline system of Dominators was created by mimicking the abilities of Mages and Demons or maybe something else. Now that he knew that the roots of the Empire were controlled in secret by his father, who knew how the Pathway of Dominion came to be. If it could stand toe to toe with the same power system from two Supreme Worlds, then it meant it was not simple.

Rowan focused on this new type of ability he had never come in contact with before, his eagerness was apparent.

The Spirit Matrix was a unique power that had its advantages and disadvantages, and he did not know which he preferred more, the bloodline system of the gods or the Spirit Matrix of Mages.

Nevertheless, Rowan felt he needed to understand the Spirit Matrix System more deeply to conclude which was better, in that light if his main body awoken he would begin studying the Demon power system.

Rowan just realized that he was using the power system of Dominators as an Empyrean, but would it be possible to also cultivate the Mages and Demons' power system? That thought almost made him frightened. If his main body could gain access to a Spirit Matrix, what sort of horror would he become?

These were all pointless speculations anyway, it was also one of his long-term goals. Rowan filed it away and entered into his body.

In the region of the Spirit where Dominators develop a Mental Space, a Mage could awaken their Spirit Matrix. For the former, they would need to be at the Rift State to unlock their Mental Space but Mages took this path as their first step.

It did not make a Mage superior to a Dominator at the start, they were far weaker because, unlike gifted Dominators with deep bloodlines that could be born at the Incarnation State or even above, every Mage would have to start from scratch, no matter how gifted they were.

A greater foundation and body may lead to easier cultivation for a Mage, but that was not important, not as much as the Spirit Matrix.

At this moment Andar lay on his back, he had short black hair that formed a saggy mop on his head which had become caked with blood, his body was also covered with blood, and his chest was still.

Andar took his first breath, and Suriel knelt and bowed to him, and then the Angel vanished in a burst of flame, his mission completed.

Andar's eyes were still closed as if he were sleeping, and underneath his closed eyelids, there were movements as new eyes were remade.

With every breath, the thick blood from all over his body began to break apart and dissipate. Andar's body began to slowly heat up as if he was a great machine that in every passing moment was beginning to hum and warm up, expelling the rust and the clogs in its many joints.

Rowan began to explore the nature of Andar's Spirit after he finished remaking the body.

He had made a complete overhaul of Andar's entire body and he was pleased with his effort. It was the most he could do without fundamentally changing Andar into something else.

At this time Andar's weight did not increase even though he was now taller; his weight was reduced to less than 40 kg and he was 5 '6'. At fourteen years old, he still had a ways to go in his height department, but he did not sacrifice his strength as the current Andar could rip apart an elephant with his bare hand, and bend metal like rubber.

This body now had a metallic spine and the brain still retained the shape of a brain but now it was metal, even the heart and other living organs like the liver and lungs, but all these changes were coated in living flesh that seamlessly melded with the metal.

This was not an ordinary metal but the entire Essence of an Ouroboros Serpent that was molded into a Tome.

A normal Ouroboros Serpent would devour its shell after every ascension, primarily to regain back essence infused inside its shell throughout its growth and evolution.

Rowan did not need to do this because of his Soul Points, he instantly created the best matching essence for his present level anytime he ascended, leaving his shell with all the accumulated essence of his previous level. Essentially his Serpents were reborn and entirely different after each level up.

If Vraegar was a bit wiser, he could have gone to Eva for the discarded shell of Rowan, although there was a slim chance Eva would not have given him the Ouroboros Shell, it was still possible that she might have if she thought Vraegar might be of use, and this would have greatly enhanced his bloodline far more than the essence he stole from him.

His metallic internals were just one part of the changes the other part was Andar's cell. When Rowan decided to use the copy of his Empyrean shell as a blueprint to rewrite the DNA of Andar, with the calculation ability of his consciousness he could tell a great deal about the effect that he could expect, but he could not predict all the changes that could happen, however, it was a risk he was willing to take.
