The Origin Layers for Ti that were available to Primordial Ti were different from the Origin Layers that Chronomancer Pri was creating, and it was only after he began this process that he almost slapped himself for missing such an obvious path of growth for himself.
As one of the Bloodline Avatars of Eos, Pri was continuously growing stronger without any need for cultivation, but that strength was only a quantitative increase and not qualitative.
Remaking every layer of himself led to qualitative changes that astonished Pri, because Kronos alone had a power that equalled Pri at his peak, and getting the second layer, Kairos, only multiplied that power.
After a while, the third layer of his Origin was created, and he called it Aevum, the Pattern Layer.
The fourth and, at this ti, final layer was created, and Pri called it Aeon, the Absolute Layer.
Another na for this layer was called the Tomb of Ti, and Pri thought that it was madness to ever consider that there could be anything deeper than this layer, but as Rowan had shown them, Existence was changing, ancient boundaries had been broken, and there were no more limits.
The whirling frenzy that was Serene Ascension suddenly paused, and he observed his work with critical eyes. It resembled a sphere that was made from shadows and light, yet although these were shadows and light, they were the shadow of ti and the reflection of ti.
To work with this material was nigh impossible, and even Serene Ascension had to borrow the sheer authority of Eos via the bloodline of Chronomancer Pri to handle such a delicate task.
"Master," the hoarse voice of Serene Ascension proclaid, "The work is completed, and you can begin the final process."
Pri closed the book he was reading with a snap and got to his feet,
"Remind again why I have to sacrifice my eye."
Serene Ascension shrugged, "Technically, you are not sacrificing your eye. You are just giving it up for the anti. You want to find the fifth layer, and yet my master, your light shines dimr than the Grand Creator, so we can only cheat."
There was a ti when Pri would have been angry at Serene Ascension for the lack of tact, but he had learned to stop trying to teach him manners. It was not as if there was no progress; however, ten thousand years ago, Serene Ascension had called him dumb and a failure when he noticed the sheer potential that Pri had and was underutilizing.
"The Archive is ant to record the endless possibilities that are going to occur in the upcoming war. With your roots with Eos, you have the potential to grasp the future, but master you are a bit... slow. The Archive would be like a learning aid, and since we are traveling there with your eye, you would be able to experience all the changes firsthand."
Pri frowned, "Then let's get it over with. Ti waits for no one, not even ."
Serene Ascension rubbed his hands in excitent, "Master, not yet, soon all of Ti would wait for you, and even the Grand Creator would have to acknowledge your might."
Pri rolled his eyes. If this were anyone who had said this to him, he would have killed them on the spot because they were implying that one day he might beco stronger than Eos, but knowing Serene Ascension, these words were selected with sothing else in mind.
Pri stepped forward until he was standing directly in front of the sphere, "Co take it out of , quickly, before I change my mind."
Chronomancer Pri appeared before Pri in a flash of light, "Master, your body is different from a Primordial, and taking out your eye would weaken you and cause great pain, and if this experint fails, there is a chance for..."
"Just take out the damn eye!" Pri roared, and the multiple arms erged from behind Serene Ascension, and they descended on Pri's face. With speed and precision to rival any Primordial, he began to work on extracting the eye of his master.
Grimacing in pain as his eye was slowly being removed from his face, Pri growled, "If only you could use this precision when it cos to battle, eighty percent of my worries would be gone. What would you do if the armies of the Ancient Primordial crashed into your Tower?"
Serene Ascension smiled, "Then I will die screaming in pain, and so to avoid this fate, I have to make sure that you are strong enough, master."
"Ah, you stubborn disciple, that is not what I ant. What would it cost you to learn how to fight properly like a Primordial? With your knowledge, you could be the most powerful Primordial inside the Origin Realms."
"But that would make no difference in the long run, Master. I have run the numbers multiple tis, and victory lies in power that none of us can yet control. If I reach the fifth layer of my Origin, perhaps I will be able to fight."
"Serene Ascension," Pri sneered, "Even at the fifth layer, what are you able to accomplish with such a useless Origin Force? Float above the Ancient
Primordials while waving at them?!"
"Can I do that?" Serene Ascension asked curiously, before he frowned, "But I
don't think that would be the best way to run, I would float over on the other
side of the Origin Realms, master."
Pri cursed aloud, "Eos, give the strength so I don't choke the life out of this child... Ah!"
Pri gasped in pain as his eyes, which had bulged out of his head to a ridiculous degree was cleanly removed, and it began to slowly transform into a
brilliant gem.
Serene Ascension turned serious, "Six nanoseconds before it crystallizes and its essence is returned to you, master. I will need the big four to help stabilize
the eye."
Gently carrying the eye over to the structure of light and shadow, Serene Ascension placed it at the exact center and began to make micro adjustnts to it, and as he worked, four shadows covered in purple and golden light appeared around him, the four layers of ti, Kronos, Kairos, Aevum, and Aeon.
