Epic Of Caterpillar

Chapter 2377: Growing Stronger

.

•

As we moved across Abyss chasing the signals of our friends at an incredible speed despite Wallʼs enormous size, I dedicated this small window of time to feed our new guests and also to ask many questions.

But of course, not without first checking something...

Ding!

[Excellently Done! You and your Party have slain over thirty thousand [Chimera Vampiric Beasts (World Devourer Realm: Tier 5 ~ 10)]!

[You and your Party have slain the [Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Blazing Wrath (Star Eater Realm: Tier 3+)] and the [Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Broken Dreams and Nightmares (Star Eater Realm: Tier 3+)]!]

[You have gained a tremendous quantity of EXP!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[...]

[Your Level has increased from Level 71 to Level 182/400!]

[All your Stats have increased. You gained Bonus Stat Points and Skill Points.]

[Some of your Skills have Leveled Up!]

[The {Primordial Sin of Wrath} approves of your bloodshed and destruction in the battlefield.]

[You gained +50.000 Hell Points.]

Not only I gained over a hundred levels but even the sin of Wrath was pleased, gifting me a generous amount of Hell Points, which I have yet to use at all.

[The {Primordial Sin of Gluttony} has activated, you have devoured the powers of the foes youʼve defeated!]

[The Body Fragments, Crystalized Soul Fragments, Divine Spiritual Energy, and more from the [Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Broken Dreams and Nightmares (Star Eater Realm: Tier 3+)] and the thousands of [Chimera Vampiric Beasts] have been absorbed.]

[Additionally, you absorbed the harvested Soul Shards and Crystal Fragments of the [Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Blazing Wrath (Star Eater Realm: Tier 3+)]!]

[You learned the Skill: [Corrupt Cosmic Authority: Illusory Dreams & Maddening Nightmares: Lv1]!]

[You learned the Skill: [Cosmic Mantis of Dreams and Nightmares Soul-Cleaving Scythes: Lv1]!]

[You learned the Skill: [Vampiric Abyssal Blood Spirit Crystal Growth: Lv1]!]

[You learned the Skill: [Corrupt Cosmic Authority: Abyssal Blazing Wrath: Lv1]!]

[You learned the Skill: [Cosmic Spiritual Fists of the Wrathful Blazing Titan: Lv1]!]

[All your Stats have increased by +5.000.000!]

Well, would you look at that? My Gluttony seems to have regained its energy when I was much weaker, and I got Skills from everything.

Five Skills in a row is really good, Iʼll be using them for more Skill Fusions later.

[The Divine Authority and Dao Fragments have been absorbed and transformed into Full Authorities and Daos!]

[You acquired the Divine Authorities: [Broken Dreams (Rank 4)] and [Abyssal Nightmares (Rank 4)]!]

[You acquired the Daos: [Supreme Dao of Dreams (Rank 4)] and [Supreme Dao of Nightmares (Rank 4)]!]

[All Divine Authorities have been upgraded through the Origin System, they now posses Ranks of their own Similar to Daos and can further grow or evolve once certain conditions are

given.]

Divine Authority Ranks:

Rank 1: Developing Divine Authority.

Rank 2: Complete Divine Authority.

Rank 3: Great Divine Authority.

Rank 4: Supreme Divine Authority.

Rank 5: Cosmic Divine Authority.

Rank 6: ???

{Available Divine Authorities}

[Deadly Sin: Gluttony (Rank 5)] [Divine Virtue: Humility (Rank 3)] [Crimson Blood (Rank 3)] [Primordial Chaos (Rank 5)] [Destruction and Creation (Rank 4)] [All Consumption (Rank 4)] [Nova (Rank 3)] [System (Rank 5)] [Death (Rank 4)] [Summon (Rank 5)] [Umbral Chaos (Rank 4)] [Necrotic Energy (Rank 4)] [Creation (Rank 5)] [Deadly Sin: Wrath (Rank 5)] [Deadly Sin: Lust (Rank 5)] [Primordial Seas (Rank 4)] [Cycle Of Reincarnation (Rank 5)] [Circle Of Mandala (Rank 5)] [Mother Of Chaos (Rank 5)] [Void Birth (Rank 4)] [Vampiric Paths (Rank 4)] [Transcendental Scarab of the Sun (Rank 5)] [Broken Dreams (Rank 4)] and [Abyssal Nightmares (Rank 4)]

Ah! That really helps make things better. With Divine Authorities still existing even now and being a better version of Divinities, that they can now upgrade and evolve is really good.

Apparently, I already have a couple that are Cosmic Divine Authorities, a Divinity that has become an Authority over a Domain, a Law of sorts. My Gluttony is obviously at that level already, and a couple others.

Their effects, when combined with my techniques and attacks, is really what adds that extra bump to things.

However, thereʼs new Realms, such as Rank 6, which comes with a question mark... Where will

that Rank lead to?

FLUOSH!

However, the growth didnʼt end there, as I felt my body growing stronger, sturdier, and more durable, while my soul seemed to be rapidly expanding and becoming larger as well.

My Physique and my Psyche have Ranked Up, most likely!

Ding!

[Due to all the Energies, Souls, and Divine and Cosmic powers you have devoured, your

Physique and Psyche have grown exponentially!]

[Your [Physique]: [Cosmic Path Jewel Scarb Queen of the Radiant Void Sun Physique (Tier 1:

Rank 1)] has Ranked Up to Tier 1: Rank 5!]

[All Physical Stats have increased by +4.000.000!]

[Your Physique Abilities have been strengthened.]

[Your [Psyche]: [Demonic Archangel Chimera Spider Goddess of Decaying Void Psyche (Tier 1:

Rank 1)] has Ranked Up to Tier 1: Rank 5!]

[All Soul and Energy-based Stats have increased by +4.000.000!]

[Your Psyche Abilities have been improved.]

[Once your Physique and Psyche Advance to Tier 2, you will be able to unlock new Abilities!]

And done, I think thatʼs about it?

No wait...

Right, all the Loot glistening everywhere that my Authority Aura retrieved...

Ding!

[The [Primordial Star Core: Lv6] Skill Ability [Cosmic Treasure Prize Drop] has been

activated!]

[All defeated Foes bodies and leftover energies have been processed and transformed into

Dropped Loot!]

[At your command, the low-rank Loot has been combined to generate better Loot but in less

quantity.]

[You received the following Loot: [Chimeric Vampiric Beast Treasure Chest (SSS Grade)]

x3.000 [Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Blazing Wrath Themed Treasure Chest (SSS+++ Grade)] x1 [Chimeric Abyssal Spirit Titan of Broken Dreams and Nightmares Themed Treasure

Chest (SSS+++ Grade)] x1]

Nice, not bad. I ate the Soul Fragments earlier anyways, so this fits nicely!

With this done, weʼre over.

”Alright then, Freyja, how do you feel? Gerda? Surtr?”

I asked them as they were giving me a thousand-yard stare after they finished eating-Well,

Surtr was still eating.

”Iʼm good...” sighed Freyja. ”Phew, I was so hungry, I couldnʼt believe it. I... Thanks, Kireina.”

”Seriously, you saved our lives, thank you,” said Gerda. ”But why do I feel much stronger than

before now?”

”It must have been because you have awakened Cosmic Powers while being in that monstrous

form.”

Suddenly, the Supreme Goddess of Life and Nature walked into the conversation.

”Eeek! F-Flora?!”

Freyja almost screamed after she saw her.

Was she scared more of Flora than me?! Thatʼs not fair!
