The Primordial Record

Chapter 509 Comprehension



Chapter 509 Comprehension

Rowan did not spend long deliberating on this aspect, since he understood that everyone that came into this library would spend their time browsing through the books, and when they saw the information they wanted they would 'download' it into their Spirit.

Except for Archmages, even a Rank 9 Mage would find it very difficult to collect more than a hundred books at once when they were inside the Ancient Library. It was well known that the Spirit, hence memory depended on the soul, and only an immortal soul could hold so much information.

There was also the aspect of the sort of books that could be collected, as some books contained far more power and knowledge than some other books, making the strain of acquiring them that much harder, and even an Immortal soul could sometimes spend decades or even millennia trying to digest the knowledge in a single book if that book was special.

The Ancient Library had a unique feature where any elements of knowledge placed inside of it would be transformed into 'books.' In a manner of speaking, nothing here was a book, but everything here was also a book.

The Ancient Library was massive, nearly infinite in scope, so it would be impossible to locate a particular book you wanted in a short time, and it would be possible for one to spend a million years inside this place without getting the information they wanted.

This Library worked by using the thoughts of the individual, and all the information about that particular subject that they sought would be delivered to them.

There were no restrictions placed on any information here, and if you thought you could handle the knowledge you called upon then that decision rested entirely with you, although many Mages had perished for seeking knowledge beyond their power, many had also profited a lot from here.

Rowan knew that Andar might be monitored while he was inside this place, even though there were countless assurances that this was not possible, he would be foolish to believe it to be so.

So whatever he needs to do, he must be careful and play his cards right. He must not implicate Andar in any of his affairs, at least, for now.

It helped that Andar was interested in all the fields of studies under the Magus Civilization. This was a great help here, for he could search for random and diverse pieces of information and it should not raise too many eyebrows.

It would only be considered as a young Acolyte trying to broaden his knowledge base.

Rowan had a burning desire to search for the Termβ€”Singularity. The Primordial Record was his greatest source of strength, yet it was also filled with mysteries, but he quickly rejected that notion, for there was no way he could justify the reason why Andar would search for something like this.

He had to settle for something lesser, and through gathering countless breadcrumbs he should be able to paint a clear picture about the universe that he lacked.

Inside his head, he called out for the Power System of this universe, and he felt the Ancient library respond to his thoughts. A large book zoomed towards him and settled on his hands and Rowan felt a rapid rush of information that would strain the mind and spirit of a Mage, but for him, it was simply a drop in the ocean.

He discarded the book and several others rushed towards him and he collected the information as well. To anyone passing by, Andar would seem like an individual who was just browsing through the books, but Rowan was not doing any of that, instead, he was digesting every single drop of information inside them. He had limited time and he had to hurry. 𝒇𝓻𝒆𝒆𝔀𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝓬𝓸𝓢

After he was done going through thirty books, the next set of books he summoned for was on all the Major Powers inside this Universe, and he began digesting the information.

After that, the next was about the Gods, Mages, and Demons, he paused for a little bit as his consciousness rapidly digested all the known powers inside the universe before he inquired about the powers that dwelled outside the universe.

This query seemed to be a particularly heavy topic for everything seemed to have gone still, and then a gargantuan book the size of a thousand-story building descended from above and Rowan did not hesitate before he touched it.

He gasped as a cold wave traveled down his arm and flooded his consciousness. Rowan quickly realized that using one consciousness pillar would take too long to collect all this information, and then he instantly employed a dozen of it.

Each of Rowan's consciousness pillars was extremely powerful, and he could equate one of them to similar to a being at the Earth god stage, perhaps even higher, and he also did not have any strain in his soul when he digested a large amount of data, which gave him the immortal aspect of the soul of a god.

Basically, he had all the benefits of having a soul, without actually having a soul himself.

Andar's Spirit however was beginning to wane, and Rowan was glad that in five seconds he would have completed his goals and reaped a lot of gain that would still take some time for him to go through it all. He was just storing all this information for now without wasting any consciousness power in actually reviewing any of it.

He expected that after this moment, most of the ignorance he had about the universe would be solved, and the connections to some of the deepest mysteries that had been plaguing him for so long would be unraveled.

The Spirit of Andar could barely last twelve more seconds and Rowan was about to leave when he sensed something from a small golden book floating by.

The book appeared to be made from metal and was rusted, and there were many long gashes on the book that made it seem like it barely escaped from destruction. His blood suddenly boiled all the way in his main body and he almost felt as if he was about to faint.

'What knowledge dwells here that is making my bloodline almost explode?' he gasped.
