Chapter 1229: Breaking Time


    ?


    On the battered shell of Rowan''s Ascendant body that had been raised on a dais of blood and darkness, surrounded by the seven Cmity Suns and a grieving Shiik, a purple dial appeared, it had a single hand that was spinning backward slowly, but then this speed unexpectedly quickened and a ck and purple smoke surrounded the dial and converged, taking the form of the Eye of Time, who still wore the broken body of the Third prince.


    There were no longer any phantoms of the Primordial of Time behind it, and it nearly copsed after it emerged from Rowan''s body. Before entering this body to possess it, the Eye of Time had left a seed of itself outside the body, and despite the fact that its judgment over Rowan''s powers waspromised, it was still careful enough to create a backdoor even though it thought it might win a moment before.


    The Eye of Time senses swept through its surroundings and it nearly cringed. Surrounding them were the epitome of madness, a realm that had gone mad and yed with flesh like an insane lobotomized infant.


    The weight of all this power pressed down on its broken body, and any other time, it would be a bit annoyed with the weight of the power arrayed against it, even though it might not be able to win, this realm was young when the Eye of Time was old, it could outwait any opponent, the shell its wore could be destroyed as many times as possible, but its core, which was the Eye itself was invulnerable.


    At least that was the truth but in its desire to consume Rowan, he had unleashed powers that its fragile shell could not handle, leading to cracks being created on its core. These would heal in time of course, and already of the many cracks surrounding the eye, the fine ones had already vanished and only threerge cracks remained that were slowly closing up.


    It needed to escape until those cracks healed up and then it would not matter if Rowan''s main body found it again, it would notmit the same mistakes as before, and it would outlive Rowan and be thest one to smile.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    It was Time, and Time was evesting.


    The Eye of Time exploded from Rowan''s body, picking a direction that should ce him as far away as possible from the emerging monster, but Rowan had already ced a safeguard in ce, which was the Shiik.


    Cmity gods were creatures of instincts, guided by endless hunger and warped by hate, their higher intelligence had been exchanged for power, and this a power they did not even need to consciously wield. If they wanted something, then reality itself would bend to fulfill their needs as time and space were under their mighty domain.


    As the Eye of Time sted away from Rowan''s body, it began to transform. No longer taking the shape of a man, but a lesser Cmity god.


    Inside the Time Blight were not just the bodies of Ascendants and mortals, but also lesser Cmity gods as well, but the Eye of Time had been careful and it did not use the bodies of the Cmity gods as a source of fuel, it knew that would trigger a higher retaliation from this world, and despite the arduous battle it had faced, including the Tribtion and duringbat, it had protected the bodies of these gods inside of him.


    This was essential for the eventuality that it needed to escape under the gaze of the realm. Its appearance outside the body of Rowan had drawn great cries of hunger and hate from the Cmity Suns, but after its transformation, those cries went silent, and it would have seeded in its escape if not for the presence of the Shiik.


    Unlike the Cmity Suns, the Queen of Cmities did notck intelligence, nor hate, and there was nothing as dangerous as cold, calcting, controlled hatred.


    She waited for the best moment to strike, holding back as the Eye of Time flitted past the massive bodies of the Cmity Suns, each of them tens of millions of miles in circumference, and when it approached the center of their mass, she gave a mentalmand to all the Cmity gods inside the shell of the Eye of Time,


    "Perish!"


    Despite the fact that these Cmity godscked intelligence and would follow themand of the Queen of Cmities without question, their death still drew out mournful cries from all of them, and because the Time Blight had contained thousands of these lesser Cmity gods, their cries of sorrow were so shocking that if there was any barrier separating the Wills of this realm, for a moment that barrier was ced aside when the cries of pain from their twisted children entered their perception.


    Darkness burst out from the body of the Eye of Time and it was frozen for a brief moment at this unexpected event. The deaths of all the Cmity gods inside the Time Blight not only took them off its control, but the flood of darkness corroded every mortal and Ascendant it had left to create a shell, and for the first time since it arrived on Doom Star, the Eye of Time was naked.


    The darkness fell to the endless ocean like a flood, leaving a massive purple cuboid shape behind, because it wanted to heal faster, the Eye of Time hadpressed itself in a manner that the cracks in its body could barely be seen.


    Its nature as a fragment of a Primordial thoroughly unleashed itself and the entire realm froze, and reality went insane as one of the greatest Time-Storms there ever erupted throughout the realm.


    Previously, the presence of a mere phantom of a Primordial had unleashed such potent changes across the realm that for a moment it had drowned out the eternal darkness of the realm, and that could barely be described as a shadow of the Eye, but now that it''s real self was revealed, everything stopped making sense.


    The flow of Time in the realm halted, and the began to reverse, while some spots remained stagnant, others went back hundreds of years, even thousands of years back, and then surrounding the Eye of Time, in that region, Time had gone back for millions of years, and that Time-Storm was only getting worse.


    The previous cry from the realm of Doom Star after suffering devastating injuries had echoed throughout all of reality. This had drawn the attention of all the major powers and at this moment the location of Doom Star had be a hot topic, its history was being excavated and the great powers of the realm, including Primordial forces had begun to rush towards this


    realm.


    There were three major parties that were already here at the start, and the cry of the realm had revealed their position to each other and for a moment there was a stalemate between the three of these parties.


    The first was Old Man Seed and Elura, thetter hid herself inside the shadows of Old Man Seed because she could not match the other two figures that had been revealed. Shahmaran, the Mother of Poison was the second party, she had been waiting outside Doom Star for Rowan to emerge, so she could finally confirm if her greatest fear was correct, and thest was Caine, the firstborn of Chaos.
