Epic of Caterpillar

Chapter 2267 Eating Everything Up

It was much more intense than I imagined, and that we had ever planned, to fight three Recessed back-to-back was pure insanity, and although I kept myself calm, deep down I was constantly panicking.

These bastards just would never die. They are perhaps the toughest foes I've ever fought in my life, if I don't completely eat them and digest them, they would probably eventually come back to life again.

It was honestly frustrating how powerful that Demiurgus was, and even when he was finally killed, he somehow gave birth to a child that ended being even stronger than him.

It was strange, was this part of his own powers? The child seemed to even inherit his memories. It might've been most likely an ability, to continue living even after death.

I walked back with the rest of my group, healing those that were too exhausted or wounded, while using my abilities to quickly repair the black castle.

They all looked exhausted, and didn't even want to talk that much either, just sighing in relief. This was already too much; I can't force everyone to keep on fighting for much longer. Thankfully, this should be the end of it.

FLASH!

Suddenly, as I was helping everyone, I noticed my power once more rising. Looks like they were already fully absorbed.

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 +1.200.000 (Without Exception)]

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

[You acquired the [Fragments of Abyssal Blood Soul Dao] x50 [Fragments of Black Maw Dao] x50 [Fragments of Rotten Wood Dao] x50 [Fragments of Miasmic Nether Dao] x180 and [Fragments of Holy Sunlight Dao] x180!]

Now these are weird Daos, Abyssal Blood Soul Dao, Black Maw Dao, and Rotten Wood Dao? So every single Recessed has their own unique Dao, I assume?

Interesting, they also come with their own unique Divine Skill I end up inheriting...

Ding!

[You have assimilated Demiurgus' Spawn, Kashtan, and Asthartez powers into three powerful Divine Skills.]

[You learned the Divine Skill: [Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority: Lord Abyssal Blood Soul: Lv1]!]

[You learned the Divine Skill: [Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority: Lord of the Black Maw: Lv1]!]

[You learned the Divine Skill: [Abyssal Holy Recessed Authority: Lord of Rotten Wood: Lv1]!]

Ah, these Skills already sound rather interesting. Although the one I am most interested on is Demiurgus' one! It seems both him and the spawn are pretty much considered the same thing anyways, so I ended getting his Recessed Authority.

The other two seem also interesting enough, I don't know why the stone and metal wielder's Authority is Black Maw though, but the Rotten Wood one does makes some sense. Though, there was something else left.

The blood flowing through my body started boiling, coursing rapidly through my veins and growing stronger as a result.

Ding!

[You have absorbed three 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): 60%] Assimilation Percentage has increased to 100%]

[The [The [Fallen Divine Abyssal Recessed Bloodline (Lowest Grade): 100%] Bloodline has Ranked Up to Low Grade 1%!]

[You gained +200.000 Cosmic Power for having Ranked Up your Bloodline.]

Huh, not bad I suppose, two hundred thousand more Cosmic Power, plus the one million and two hundred thousand from eating them has given me a nice boost to my Cosmic Domain.

It seems that Cosmic Domains are the most important part of a battle between Cosmic Entities, the Domains are constantly clashing against one another and trying to overcome the other.

This means that as they fight, whoever can weaken the other's Domain will always have an advantage, also the Domains can be easily shaped into all sorts of attacks or merged with them.

Fighting these Recessed has indeed giving me a lot of battle experience in terms of fighting Cosmic Entities, something I really was lacking.

But I wonder if that's even enough…

Ding!

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

[All of your defeated Recessed 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)] x90 [Corrupted Holy Nether Light Soul Shards (SSS Grade)] x210 [Demiurgus Spawn's Abyssal Blood Soul Ether Bottle (SSS+ Grade)] x40 [Kashtan Black Cosmic Steel Skin Shards (SSS Grade)] x40 [Asthartez's Cosmic Rotten Wood (SSS Grade)] x40 [Demiurgus Spawn, Child of Abyssal Blood Soul Themed Treasure Chest (SSS+ Grade)] x1 [Kashtan, Lord of the Black Maw Themed Treasure Chest (SSS Grade)] x1 [Asthartez, Lord of Rotten Wood Themed Treasure Chest (SSS Grade)] x1]

That's a loot and powerful materials. I can definitely use this to make either powerful new equipment or egos or upgrade my already existing ones. Mammon is already about to hit max level, and Aquamarine is also only thirty more levels from getting there.

The other Egos, which are distributed with my other Clones, are also leveling steadily, and should soon reach max level as well. It should be about time to upgrade the whole team too, including the Maxima Summons.

The very reason we've been fighting against the Recessed was for me to get that damned sun, get to Star Eater Realm, and use this power to aid everyone else.

And I have not forgotten that at all yet…

"Kireina…"

However, Redgaria walked to my side, looking rather dispirited.

Right, he had indeed gone through a special change, his Cosmic Authority Skill evolved, and he became incredibly strong.

Capable of fusing his own undead with his body and use them to distort space itself as well as being able to take upon a strange new transformation.

But his presence… it feels odd, there's definitely more than just Death and Darkness energy from within him.

Not only does he have a lot of highly refined Nether, but also…

Maxima Essence?

How?

"Do you remember the Maxima Summon that you helped me invoke?" Redgaria wondered.

"Phantasmas?" I asked. "What… happened to her?"

"She… she died," Redgaria muttered, his face looking bitter.
