Zatiel was sitting with his eyes closed in the True Neo-Demon Doomsday Chamber, and the raging aura his body was releasing kept growing stronger and stronger. Any life form beneath Rank 3 that was touched by this aura would feel their skin burning due to the cells in their bodies rotting.
The Neo-Demon spent half a day getting used to his new power and restraining the aura and energy inside him. Normally a Rank 4 life form would not have to spend so much time adapting to his new strength, but the upgrade Zatiel obtained was too massive.
After he was able to restrain his power, Zatiel stood up and opened his eyes. They were all in their active form. The power in them obtained a quantitative development and a qualitative change.
When Zatiel was a Rank 3 life form, he could not keep his right eye under control, but awakening his True Soul gave him the strength to rule over the laws in his eye.
"My vertical eye is the Eye of Life and Creation. My left eye is its antithesis, so I should call it the Eye of Death and Destruction. The force in my right eye was the result of merging the power of life, death, and soul, and it has a connection with creation and destruction, so the best name for it would be Rebirth Eye."
The eclipse inside Zatiel's Bloodline Heart and its purple flames were the metaphysical representation of the powerful Law of Rebirth, a law greater than the Law of Space or the Law of Time.
"A.I. Chip, show me my current stats. Also, name my bloodline as the Rebirth Eclipse Bloodline and the force it generates as Rebirth Force."
"Bip... Analyzing the host.

Physique: 2541.2

Note: Soul Origin was calculated using normal energy pools, but the normal human doesn't have this power, so the estimate is not precise."
Thanks to the increase in the power of Zatiel's soul, the abilities of the chip were improved. Now it could quantify the strength of the True Soul and even show the law compression.
After his advance to Rank 4, Zatiel stats received two great changes. One was the evolution of his energy pool from Abyss Aura to Elemental Chaos, and the other was the appearance of Soul Origin, which is related to the strength of the True Soul.
The True Soul consumed Origin Power to increase its strength and produce Soul Origin that is used to form cycles inside it.
Zatiel's True Soul was in the first of the five cycles a Rank 4 life form goes through. Once the first cycle is saturated with Soul Origin, the second cycle can be formed, and the strength of the True Soul would grow.
This meant that a larger capacity of Soul Origin could be translated into a more powerful True Soul.
The Soul Origin can be used for a myriad of purposes, as a healing force, a new energy pool for your spells, a power that increases the might of your body, but its most important function is as the energy source of the Law Avatar.
Unfortunately, Soul Origin cannot be renewed on its own, and every time some of it is spent, the life form would be forced to draw the Origin Power of the world or use origin stones to replenish it. One is very slow and the other incredibly expensive.
Although spending Soul Origin would not weaken the True Soul, it would slow down its training.
For those reasons, unless it is absolutely necessary, most life forms never use their Soul Origin.
Zatiel was analyzing the data the A. I. Chip showed him. Most of his focus was on his laws.
'Only my Law of Life and Law of Death have reached the Initial level. It is a little disappointing, but there is nothing that can be done.'
If other Rank 4 life forms could hear Zatiel's thoughts, they would be driven mad with envy. Each of his laws was incredibly complicated and powerful, and he already had two at the Initial level and another at the peak of the Potential level. Not to mention he only needed to look to his bloodline to obtain knowledge over the laws and enhance his comprehension.
'The current statistics given by the A.I. Chip used a normal human as their basis, but now that they have grown so much, the accuracy and help they bring to identify my power, and that of my opponents is affected, not to mention that the value for Soul Origin is not well defined.' After a moment, Zatiel came with a solution that not only would it help him accurately determine the power of an individual but would also no longer show a giant number whose meaning is hard to understand.
"A.I. Chip, use a standard newborn Archangel, as the basis to the calculation of power."
"Bip...
Changing measures...
Task completed.
Name: Zatiel Daybreak
Race: Neo-Demon (Rebirth Eclipse Bloodline)
Strength: 3.0
Physique: 7.2
Speed: 3.8
Elemental Chaos: 2.7
Rebirth Force: 2.6
Mind Force: 0.3
Soul Origin: 1.5
Note: Each point of growth is now quantified as an exponential increase of 50%."
According to the new system of measurement, someone with 2 points in strength had 1.5 times the strength of someone with a value of 1. In Zatiel's case, his strength was equal to 2.25 times the strength of an individual with 1 point.
In the low numbers, the difference is not much, but as the numbers grow larger, the difference increases immensely. Zatiel's physique was 7.2 points, and that meant it was more than 11 times higher than the one of a newborn Archangel.
Zatiel was satisfied with the new system of measurement and his stats. It was clear that when it came to the starting point, he was superior to the Archangels, the self-proclaimed strongest kind in the universe.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'I need to seal a star in my stomach and plant my first Soul Seed. After that, I will handle the garbage, and I can return to the Magi World.'
Zatiel did not waste time, and after sending the command to the NRAI, he appeared right in the void of the Neo-Demon Realm.
'Thanks to my powerful physique, the dimension the first heaven was able to build inside my stomach should be able to handle a slightly more powerful star than other Neo-Demons' first star.' Zatiel used the A.I. Chip to establish a connection with the NRAI and obtained a list of all the stars he could put inside him.
In the Neo-Demon Realm, stars are classified according to the energy inside them and the might of the laws they carry. They begin at Tier 0 and end at Tier 12.
'Since the dimension is in my stomach, I need a star whose laws are compatible with the natural function of this organ. A star with the Law of Shadows or the Law of Devouring would be useful due to their swallowing properties.'
As he was going through the stars in the list given by the NRAI, one caught the attention of Zatiel.
The star was blue, and although it was small compared to other stars, having a diameter of around 5 kilometers, its weight was incredible for its size. It created a gravitational pull that drew the elemental chaos around it.
'A Tier 1 star with such an impressive Law of Gravity. It has some of the qualities of a neutron star.' Zatiel was very satisfied with this small blue star.
There are neutron stars in the Neo-Demon Realm, but they are Tier 11 stars, and if Zatiel were to try and seal one of them inside the dimension in his stomach, his body would be destroyed instantly. Actually, a Neo-Demon with a Law Bloodline that focused on the body and trained it constantly, who obtained countless lucky chances, and had created an extremely steady foundation would still find it very hard to develop a dimension capable of containing a Tier 11 star.
As for Tier 12 stars, Zatiel never thought they could be put inside a Neo-Demon. He just brought them into the Neo-Demon Realm in case a miracle happened. They are sealed in the periphery of the realm to make sure they don't harm the other stars and worlds.
The blue star Zatiel wanted was millions of kilometers away from his location, and although he could order the NRAI to bring him there, he did not.
The Neo-Demon adopted a meditative position and focused on the dimension in his stomach before channeling the elemental chaos that filled his body and consciousness in the first heaven of his True Doomsday Body. The dimension built by that heaven reacted, and a white whirlwind appeared inside Zatiel's stomach.
Once the white whirlwind appeared, the Chaotic-Core inside the Elemental Chaos Heart glowed, and Zatiel sent it the coordinates of the blue star.
The moment he did that, another whirlwind, millions of times larger than the one inside Zatiel, appeared above the Tier 1 star. This portal was possible thanks to the power of the Neo-Demon Realm and the Incarnation of Death and Destruction's Omega law.
If the Star Consciousness was awake, then this blue star could have resisted, but since it was in a stasis state, it wasn't able to do anything other than being swallowed by the humongous white whirlwind.
In the white whirlwind inside Zatiel's stomach, a blue marble appeared. Of course, that was just what your eyes would see. Right now, the Neo-Demon had a dimension that contained a five kilometers star inside him.
The white whirlwind began to tremble due to the immense pressure it was subjected to, but it was able to stabilize itself before beginning to spin faster.
The energy inside the whirlwind grew, and its edges started to crystallize.
Once the crystallization was over, the seal on the star would be completed, and the Neo-Demon could begin to use its energy and laws to nurture himself.
When the crystallization reached fifty percent, the blue star began to tremble, and a powerful aura surged from it.
Due to it no longer being suppressed by the full power of the Neo-Demon Realm and the feeling of danger accompanied by its sealing caused the Star Consciousness began to show signs of awakening.
