You have to start over and over again. The Ascension is this restart. You will loose all your heroes and start again. You will be rewarded with your hero souls and all your guilded heros will stay at you.
This shop option is useful later. It will give you hero souls based on the maximum hero souls you ever had during your playtime. This means if you currently would get +10 hero souls, but you've had a ascension which gave you +20 hero souls, you would receive 20 hero souls for buying this option.
The +1 Ascension means you get those souls just like on a restart, but you don't have to rebuild everything.
Tip: I normally use this shop option if I had a good run and raised my maximum hero souls. I do the restart, so my maximum of hero souls is increased. After that I directly buy this bonus which will grant me the same hero souls again. After that I'll go on with the next run. :-)
Hopefully this will help you.
