Epic of Caterpillar

.

.

.

As I repaired the inner destruction of Ashatath's Dark Palace and cooked something with the help of my wives, I looked at the Origin System Notifications that popped up. Indeed, just like before, I had grown much stronger again. These Recessed were truly a good source of EXP and Power, but they were a really tough nut to crack.

Ding!

[You and your party have slain [Recessed Ashatath, Lord of Crystal Spiders (Star Eater Realm: Tier 8)] and hundreds of thousands of [Ashatath's Spiderlings (World Devourer Realm: Tier 3)]!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Your Level has increased from Level 182 to Level 189/200!]

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

[The Levels of Several Skills have increased!]

[The [Soul Feasting Abyssal Caterpillar Jaws: Lv5/20] [Universal Cosmic Eyes of Truth: Lv4/20] [Impenetrable Primordial Chaos Armored Cocoon Body: Lv3/20] [Primordial Golden Demon Scarab Swarm Queen Of Eternal Sun Transformation: Khepri: Lv1/30] [Primordial Azure Sea Orichalcum Armament Creation: Lv2/30] [Metaphysical Manifestation: Lv2] [Partial Dimensional Warping: Lv2] [Absolute Cosmic Enchantment: Lv2] [Corrupted Light Resistance: Lv3] [Cosmic Undead Hunter: Lv3] and [Divine Fallen Recessed Slayer: Lv3] Skills have gained 1 Level!]

[The [Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority: Lord Of Golden Bones: Lv1] Skill has gained 2 Levels.]

Seven Levels, that's pretty good for a single Recessed and all her damned spiderlings. I guess I have reached a point where I need a ridiculous amount of EXP to Level Up again. And I can't blame the System for it, I have become way too strong.

[Because you've saved the lives of many Vampires, you've acquired the [Vampire Savior: Lv1] Title Skill!]

[Vampire Savior: Lv1]

A Special Title Skill given to a good heart that doesn't discriminate Vampires for what they are and help them no matter what.

When meeting Vampires that are not initially hostile with you, their Favorability of you increases by +50%, with an additional +5% with each Skill Level.

The ability to talk, convince, charm, lead, and trade with all kinds of Vampires increases by +100%, with an additional +5% with each Skill Level.

When protecting Vampires, All Stats increase by +100%, with an additional +5% with each Skill Level.

Vampires that you've saved have a 50% chance to decide to follow you as their new leader.

You can grant Divine Vampire Bloodlines to Vampires below your leadership using your current abilities and divinities.

[The [Vampire Savior: Lv1] Title Skill has gained 3 Levels.]

A really weird Skill! But I'll take it, I guess? I suppose this might help me convince them to be my friends more easily. Although it does say that it doesn't work if they're already hostile towards me. But nevertheless, it might be good for first impressions.

Also the whole Divine Vampire Bloodline to Vampires… Feels weird, but I might give it a shot. It could probably be a nice way to make these weaker Vampires into stronger ones, so they can be more comparable to the three strongest families.

Ding!

[You have finished digesting and absorbing your meal.]

[You have gained a large quantity of Cosmic Energy, Divine Energy, Miasmic Energy, and Corrupted Light Essence!]

[All energies have been refined into usable Stats.]

[All Stats have increased by +600.000 (Without Exception)]

[You have completely devoured your prey's Origin Core; you have assimilated everything inside.]

[You acquired the [Fragments of Demonite Dao] x50 [Fragments of Miasmic Nether Dao] x60 and [Fragments of Holy Sunlight Dao] x60!]

It seems I was able to assimilate Ashatath's soul and body well enough. This time instead of 500k to all stats, it was 600k, really good. I feel much stronger. Takes me back to the good ol' times when I ate everything and grew progressively stronger. We're finally back at that!

Also, more Dao Fragments… This time, including a new unique one, perhaps what made Ashatath so strong. Especially her damned, incredibly tough diamond-like body.

The Demonite Dao? Is this the Dao based on that crystal? So it's called Demonite, how odd…

I guess if there's a Dao of Path Jewels, of course there's something like this out there.

Ding!

[You have assimilated one of Ashatath's powers into a powerful Divine Skill.]

[You learned the Divine Skill: [Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority: Lord Of Crystal Spiders: Lv1]!]

[Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority: Lord Of Crystal Spiders: Lv1]

A Powerful Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority that Erdretoth, the Lord of Golden Bones possessed.

A Powerful Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority that Erdretoth, the Lord of Golden Bones possessed.

Grants the ability to transform parts of your body or create Cosmic Demonite of the highest quality, with tough, super diamond-like durability. Its Defense, Durability, and Toughness increases based on 500% of your Total Health Stat, with an additional +50% with each Skill Level.

The Cosmic Demonite can absorb, channel, and unleash Cosmic Energy, Nether Essence, Holy Sunlight Energy, and other related Essences, further harboring different types of abilities, from basic shapeshifting to the ability to unleash reflective beams, or even become sharp, deadly weapons. Damage dealt, both through Reflection Beams and Physical Weapons increases based on 300% of your Total Health Stat, with an additional +30% with each Skill Level.

By feeding the Demonite with Souls and Life Essence, it is possible to birth [Aberrant Demonite Crystal Spiders] which will inherit 10% of all your Stats and possess a Durability based on 25% of your Total Health. They will possess basic Reflection Beam and Physical Weapon Shapeshifting Abilities, and their Damage Dealt using them will be based on 30% of your Health. They will grow progressively stronger with each Skill Level.

Additionally, increases the Power of Nether, Miasma, Darkness, Death, Holy, Sunlight, Light, and Life Elemental Affinity and Elemental Power by +2000%.

Oooh, not bad at all I guess! I might be able to use this pretty well, perhaps.

Ding!

[You have absorbed the Bloodline: [Fallen Divine Abyssal Recessed Bloodline (Lowest Grade): 1%]

[The Bloodline has been automatically assimilated by another Bloodline of the same type.]

[The [Fallen Divine Abyssal Recessed Bloodline (Lowest Grade): 1%] Assimilation Percentage has increased to 60%]

Oh, the Bloodline, right. Well, that's good to know.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

And that wasn't all, as the leftover energies, power, and even the crushed bodies of the monsters left behind glowed with bright light, turning into items.

Oh, it's happening again!

Ding!

[The Effects of the [Cosmic Treasure Prize Drop] Ability have been activated.]

[All of your defeated Ashatath's Aberrant Spiders and the Recessed herself have dropped a large quantity of Loot!]

[The Loot has been merged as you've gathered it to get the highest-grade items from the vast low to mid-grade majority.]

[You acquired: [Corrupted Holy Nether Light Elixir (SSS Grade)] x30 [Corrupted Holy Nether Light Soul Shards (SSS Grade)] x70 [Ashatath's Highest Quality Demonite Crystal Shards (SSS Grade)] x40 [Ashatath's Bottled Pheromones (SSS Grade)] x10 [Ashatath, Lord of Crystal Spiders Themed Treasure Chest (SSS+ Grade)] x1]

Huh, not bad at all! I love getting loot out of nowhere.

Though, I'll be saving it for now and I'll open and inspect it once I get back to my Divine Realm.

There's only one Recessed left to go, then hopefully the plan works, we take away the Sun, I absorb it, Rank Up, and we go help the rest of the two teams that got stranded here.

And maybe some other things in between, but that's the plan right now.

However, for now, it was time to have lunch, the food was almost ready, and it smelled really good~!

Oh right, might as well create a new Fusion Skill, to get some more power if I can, they seem to be my greatest sources of strength.
