Several Days Later
As expected, the mission performed by Diablo went very well, and they have managed to exterminate the entire Clear Sky Clan to the last member. Ironically, as they were hiding as turtles, nobody yet knew that the entire Clear Sky Clan had been slaughtered, which was good for the Spirit Hall, as many things could be done.
I was currently located at a faraway island from the Douluo Continent, where I was preparing to reach the Apocalypse-Class, the Being of Law.
My comprehension of the Law of Devour has already reached 100%, and now I am just holding it back and waiting for a perfect moment to reach the fabled level of Laws.
After I advanced to the Being of Law level, I would be strong enough to contend against beings like Ophis or Great Red very soon, and even against the civilization of Evie Etoulde, which either would be conquered or annihilated or rather I only cared about Machine Race there, as they could be beneficial, especially for Architect.
Those Spirit Gods, or what they were called, their only use was their Divine Sparks. Maybe I should really conquer their civilization and plunder their resources, they should be pretty rich, and that loot would be a great boost for the Empire.
"Architect, activate the formation around this island... this would be destructive... probably."
I said to Architect as I started releasing everything that I had held back and heard Architect speaking.
[As you wish. Formations activated. Detecting... detecting... special effect on the Douluo Planet has been detected... current effects unknown.]
Instantly entire Island was enveloped in huge runic magical formations that would prevent my aura from leaking and luring here possible enemies. Apocalypse-Class was comparable to the Gods of the Douluo Universe; due to Law Comprehension, I would be powerful from somewhere between 3rd-Class God to 1st-Class God.
Dimensional-Class was comparable to the Rank 130 – 139: Half-Godking and Rank 140 – 149: Quasi-Godking, while Lord-Class was comparable to the God-King, which was Spirit Rank: 150+. Apparently, there were only several of such individuals, and by some accident one of them, or rather its Inheritor, was in the Douluo Continent, while other several others had Inheritance Test spread across the Douluo Continent.
One of the most powerful Gods was the Asura God, whom Inheritance Trail was located at something called Slaughter City, and Bibi Dong decided that she would take over its position, as it would help her greatly. Also, I would accompany her, she asked for it...
About the Inheritor, it was Silver Dragon King, part of the Dragon God, by what Diablo has been able to find out, and after I visit the Slaughter City with Bibi Dong, I would be heading to the Great Star Duo Forest to find it and also, Di Tian, as there were many things that I wished to discuss with them... maybe someone would be worthy to join the Longinus Dreizhen Orden... it would be good to have two members at the Shao Universe.
[Comprehension of the Law of Devour has reached 100%.]
[Starting Ascension Project.]
I then felt something that cannot be explained by words... the feeling was weird yet so comfortable, and I felt that how my body was completely being reforged from the zero. My body was being reconstructed to ascend as a higher form of life, the Being of Laws.
[Demonic Energy Reserves are being purified and are expanding at tremendous speed.]
My Demonic Energy Reserves were being purified and converted to the new level of density and purity, which was far more superior compared to when I was at the Super-Devil Class. I now felt extremely powerful and could cast Forbidden-Tier Spells for hours without even noticing energy loss for them.
That was the advantage of the Being of Law. For example, if I didn't use Laws when casting spells, then my energy usage was minuscule.
[Physique is being strengthened to the standard Apocalypse-Class Level of physical strength.]
After my Demonic Energy had been purified and was still expanding, my body was also being strengthened at the same time, and it was a wondrous feeling. The Energy of Laws was reshaping and strengthening my body by a tremendous amount.
Usually, Arcanists don't have strong bodies, as they don't focus on strengthening their physiques, aside from those who transplant some bloodline into them or those who are filthy rich and don't care about what they invest.
Reaching the Apocalypse-Class was a whole new start that opened countless new possibilities. The real world could be explored only from this rank and higher. Beings on this level or its equivalent like Warlock Monarch or Arch-Arcanist as only from that stage one is basically entitled to have his own faction or explore wonders of the Universe.
My new True Name didn't awaken as it would only when I would return to the Astral Boundary to the Underworld, as I did all my True Names from the Will of the Underworld itself, so I predict that I would get two ones.
One for the Legendary-Class and one for the Apocalypse-Class.
My True Names were mainly passive abilities, which gave me massive benefits, like Dizmason name that increased his Soul Aptitude, Prideguard which basically made me unmatched if I fought in the Underworld against someone of the same element and even weakened attacks of neutral ones or Nirvana that boosted up my regeneration in the Underworld tremendously and allowed him to be killed and reborn once in a while.
As they were given by the Will of the Underworld itself, their effect was either limited only to the Underworld or gave him some passive ability, which was okey with me.
[Ascension to the Being of Law has been successful. The host is now an Apocalyse-Class entity. Demonic Energy Levels are stabilizing.]
Soon enough, I heard Architect's voice, saying that everything was okey and I had successfully broken through to the Apocalypse-Class.
It was called Apocalypse-Class because Beings of Law were like an Apocalypse. While Dimensional-Class were called like that as they had the ability to freely traverse across the entire Universe due to their strength. While Lord-Class was termed as Lord, due to the fact that they were unmatched by anyone below and ruled enormous parts of the Universe, aside from Eternals/Exarchs and more ancient beings, but those were different.
