Ohm's law: V=RI
By changing I you will have V adjust to keep R constant.
If I goes up, so will V, because it's a direct relation.
Try it with 100 ohm. You can have
100=R=V / I=500 volt / 5 amps
100=R=V / I=700 volt / 7 amps

The voltage and current scale directly with each other, so the voltage will increase.

The voltage will get higher because it is not being resisted and the current is getting faster, producing more energy?

The voltage increases.
U = I * R (Ohm Formula).
