Gothran'Inul growled, the sound reverberating through reality as more of his hands seized Rowan's body, he had thousands of arms, and his physical shape was something that could make even an immortal go mad.
With a slight effort from the hands he held Rowan with he would tear him apart in a manner that even Rowan would find it difficult to recover from, multiple heads stretched forward on a rapidly elongating neck, and like massive snakes, they circled Rowan until twelve of his heads were focused on Rowan's face, and those heads spoke to Rowan using different languages, but they were all speaking the same words, "This is not a game child, you should not try my patience, or I shall scour through every single piece of you to find my answers. You shall not survive this process, and it shall be the most painful thing that would ever occur to you, or anyone you have ever known. I should know, because I control the Will of Pain."
Rowan calmly replied to this threat as he assessed the multiple heads of the titan, "As much as it would interest me to find the limits of this pain you promise, I never said I would be withholding information from you. You were the one who refused my boon, and so I gave it away.
The force in the hands of the titan grew to an epic proportion, almost as if he had run out of patience and had decided to tear Rowan apart, in the heart of Gothran'Inul he was a bit surprised that despite the force he had used on Rowan, except from explosions resounding from his flesh, he was still in one piece, he had intended to break every bone in his body.
Leaving this concern aside, through multiple sets of gritted teeth the titan growled, "Do not test me, child, I shall not ask again. Where is the Primordial Essence?" Rowan didn't reply, instead, he began to move, his body straining against the hold of the titan as massive explosions of power made the space around them shatter. Cracks exploded through reality that extended for billions of miles, the present size of both titans meant every motion they were making came with such momentum that even a stable realm like Doom Star could not entirely contain their might.
His two hands were held by hundreds of Gothran'Inul's hands, and as Rowan strained against his binding, the multiple heads of the titan looked at him with impatience and disdain, but that look did not last for long.
Rowan's two hands, bound by the hands of a titan whose strength could crumble dimensions to pieces, began to slowly move under its adamantite bond.
Underneath the astonished gaze of the titan, Rowan brought his hands to his neck where he began to slowly pry away the fingers of Gothran'Inul that had seized his throat, in the process, he bent and broke the nine fingers of the titan's hand.
The low voice that emerged from Gothran'Inul would have killed a lesser immortal, "You dare? Even now you still fight?...
Rowan's eyes, blacker than the void, suddenly blazed with gold, as for the first time in nearly a billion years, he activated one of his most heretical techniques, Ascension! This was a power that he could not use in reality outside because its reverberation had the power to shake reality. Except for a closed-off realm like Doom Star that could hold that power in check, Rowan would only use this power unless he intended to go all out and kill.
Ascension had been born from his Eruption ability, which was a forbidden method used by Rowan to burn his endless vitality for an increase in attributes for a short time.
When he evolved to bee a living dimension, he lost certain abilities while others had transformed, growing stronger, and Eruption had transformed into Ascension. Ascension possessed all the capabilities of Eruption, and it also had the capacity to make a certain amount of the attributes gained while using this technique permanently added to Rowan's base stats when he ended the technique.
Rowan did not need these extra attributes, he already had more than he needed as his third-dimensional flesh had been taken far past its limit with just the attribute he gained by Seeding the worlds inside his dimension, to the extent that he had millions of unspent attribute points lying around.
For him, Ascension was valuable because it could infinitely multiply his powers to the limit that his body could contain, and as a living dimension, his body could contain a lot.
Gothran Inul was holding him bound using only pure strength, and Ascension was the best method to counter this move.
At this moment Rowan's present attribute was this:
Strength: 601,772,001
Sixth Star Ancient Supreme Strength Core
Agility: 551,771,771
Fifth Star Ancient Supreme Agility Core
Constitution: 790,885,990
Seventh Star Ancient Supreme Constitution Core
Although he had already reached the limit of his third-dimensional flesh, simply pushing his Will of Time to the Fourth dimension had loosened the barrier over his flesh, allowing Rowan to push his strength from the fifth star to the Sixth star, his Agility, and Constitution had also grown but did not break the boundary of their star core.
If he pleted the rest of his Wills and became a fourth dimension, then his attributes would rapidly push past the hundreds of millions to reach billions, at that time, Rowan wondered how many immortals in all of reality could counter his strength.
These current attributes represented his base stats and with his activation of Ascension, in the first few moments alone, all of his stats... tripled!
His entire dimension from the inside out was beginning to bust as its potential was excavated. Ilis endless essence was consumed in ridiculous amounts and that power was channeled into his dimensional flesh, and like a stone rolling down a mountain, this process was gaining momentum, being increasingly faster. Gothran'Inul was an Old One, an eighth-dimensional entity whose powers were unfathomable because, unlike immortals of this present Era, this titan cultivated both Core and Territory.
In the Primordial Era, using the power of Primordial Essence, Gothran'Inul had been able to push both the power of his Core and Territory to unknown heights, creating a body that wed truly immortal, and although he had been drained of every single drop of Primordial Essence, he could still stand here using the strength of his body alone. At this time, the titan could not even draw upon Aetherium to power up his massive physique because being inside of Doom Star, the realm refused to allow them to access any of its powers.
Like the Eye of Time, Gothran'Inul was basically fighting on an empty tank, but the body cultivated during the Primordial Era was nothing to scoff at. His passive Aether generation was a thousand times greater than an average eighth-dimensional entity, and yet it was barely enough to hold the Weight of his existence, without access to Primordial Essence and a suitable delusional realm where he could recover, Gothran'Inul would need to recover for billions of years for his Aether generation to reach a point that he could begin creating Aetherium, and then he would be able to finally unleash his full power.
