Chapter 1166: Understanding The Sixth Dimension Aethernet The appearance of the Undying was unexpected, but not surprising because, in a manner, Rowan's vision of this Memory was still being slightly influenced by Shisu's perception of events. Memory/Mind was the sixth dimension, and unlike Time/Space which could be easily understood by him, this dimension was still strange. A mortal, even the gods could not imagine that their memories could become a dimension, where powers and other dimensional forces could be cultivated and unleashed. It touched on concepts so strange and unreachable that most would never have a chance to know it existed. Rowan had always walked a higher path, and he could touch this dimension even when he could not yet understand it. His extremely powerful bloodlines meant he could easily manipulate these forces, despite not fully understanding them. For a man to fly, he would need to create machines to touch the heavens, but Rowan was born with wings. In the future, he might need machines to boost the power of his wings, but this did not take away the fact that the heavens were always within his reach. Understanding more about the sixth dimension made Rowan realize that perhaps, all those memories he had about times past shown to him by the Primordial Record, were not just memories, but dimensions... higher dimensions that he did not understand their essence at that time. As a living dimension, if he reached the sixth dimension, was it possible that unlike everyone else who could not manipulate dimensions beyond surface levels, he might be able to reach across Memory and access them in ways that were considered impossible? Such thoughts were beyond tantalizing and were ultimately a distraction from what he needed to be doing at this time, so Rowan placed them aside. He did not find it strange that he had not easily found the Undying. Inside this memory, he could stand above it all and observe everything from afar, but for the mortal Shisu at this time, the Undying was such an unknown factor and a power beyond his comprehension that he could never fully encapsulate this character, thereby there were certain flaws in his memories that could not be explained. It was the reason that Shisu saw the Undying to be a massive figure covered in green fog, making his only discernible traits the multiple foxtails that he had, and whose head seemed to scrape the heavens above. In any case, these flaws were simply Rowan's High standards taking the foreground. As a Creator and World Bearer, Rowan's memory was so detailed, that being inside the memory of another, even a sixth-dimensional Ascendant was almost as if he was in the mind of a child drawing stick figures. If Rowan was allowing the soul of Shisu to control this Memory in its entirety, then there was no doubt that he would be able to get a much better picture of the Undying, but that would be extremely risky because if he could see deeply into the Undying, the Undying would be able to see deeply into him. If the Ascendant Suns were at the seventh dimension, then the Undying should be at this level, or maybe even at the peak of the seventh dimension. Rowan also knew that the Undying had the favor of the World Will, he could as well be the representative of Doom Star, which should give him the powers that were approaching the eighth-dimensional level in certain instances. Such an enemy, it was not likely that even Old Man Seed would be able to stand against him, but Rowan did not care, he would be leaving Doom Star with the head of the Undying on his belt. With half his attention focused on the events about to occur below, the second half began to trace the lines of this Primordial Weapon covering below him that was releasing so much power that the heavens had changed colors, hiding the gaze of the Ascendant and Calamity Suns from viewing the earth. With his present sight, Rowan understood that this effect had covered the entirety of Doom Star. This made him pause in contemplation. The method of hiding the gaze of the heavens from the earth was quite different from what the Undying had been capable of doing with this weapon in the present. There could be two reasons for this; the first was that the Undying could control more of the powers of the Primordial weapon when he was using a copy of it, like in this instance, or the second was that, in the past, Berrion the Undying had greater control over the Primordial Weapon than he had in the present. Rowan was leaning towards the second reason, but he felt that whatever would happen on this day might give him more evidence to support his logic. With that in mind, he focused on capturing every detail of this spear, he would need this knowledge for his plans ahead, and it was crucial. A million years ago, this spear had ended his life, and even if this was a pale imitation, its lines were still the same, and the instant he entered Shisu's mind and smelled the traces of the Undying in his soul, he knew he had to find the Memory where he had appeared and see what he could discover from it. Turned out that Rowan's luck would make the devil cry out in anger, for not only did he find a third Sin Weapon, but he had now seen a copy of the Primordial weapon that killed him making his future plans more manageable because a section of his consciousness had been devoted to finding a solution to a problem that had become suddenly half-way resolved. Just before he died, Rowan had used the entire power of Astrolabe to seize and launch this weapon away from the Undying. Berrion could wield the Primordial weapon, which was an extremely amazing feat in its own right, but he could not control it, giving Rowan the chance to punish his killer in a way that he did not easily understand at that moment, because if Berrion thought that he could easily collect the weapon that Rowan had sent away with the full might of Astrolabe, then he was in for a rude surprise. His three Chambers, Astrolabe, Hollow Forge, and Memory Well had reached levels of power that the original designs could have never anticipated was possible. Every time he evolved his state of being, the three Chambers he received when he was merely an Avatar of Eve grew stronger and more versatile, and when he became a dimension, his Astrolabe received powerful new upgrades that made its speed that were already ridiculous even more broken. Except Astrolabe was blocked by an extremely powerful force a few moments after it was launched, nothing could catch up to the speed of the Astrolabe given enough time to gather momentum, because its speeds would never stop increasing, and after a time this speed would reach a dimension that even Rowan could not understand. Discounting the fact that anything that was carried by Astrolabe would become ephemeral, making it so that Astrolabe did not need to change its direction when moving and could pass through most obstructions in its way, when it was in this state, it was hard for Rowan to control Astrolabe, and this was the reason he needed to understand the proper shape of this weapon in order to call upon it when the time was right.
