Infinite Evolution System Made Me Too OP!

Chapter 115: (End of Volume 1) The Price Of Power



...…

Thinking about all the wonderful women around him got Azmodeus thinking about the future—a future where he and all these women might become something more than friends.

However, when he recalled the message that he received from the Infinite Evolution System a while back, that slight smile on his face faded away.

[The Host should not get too attached to those close to him. After all, everything in life has a price, and to become the strongest, that price is a major one…]

[You will slowly lose your emotions one by one, no matter if you have Traits that counteract the effects of emotion dulling.]

[It will eventually reach a point where you will lose all sense of your past self as you become stronger and reach further.]

[And there will come a day when you will lose more than just your emotions, as you will begin to feel pain—extreme physical pain beyond anything that you've experienced before. Furthermore, this pain will never subside and will only exponentially increase the stronger you become.]

[This will not be the only price you will need to pay, but that is not for you to know at this point in time, as knowing is also a form of price…]

This was what Azmodeus had received from his system notifications a few years ago, and ever since then, he had been pondering the words of the system.

However, before we get to that topic, let us go over all the things that have changed over the last 40 years.

For his aspects of existence, there was his Sword Aura, which had successfully progressed into the Early-Comet Rank and was even able to solidify itself inside the Middle-Comet Rank!

If he wanted to, then he could quite literally split the entire Northern Spirit Continent in half!

And it wouldn't end with just that, as his full power strike would be completely capable of cleaving sextillions of miles of the Endless Ocean that surrounded the Northern Spirit Continent and the Boundless Archipelago!

He was quite literally a walking calamity with a sword in hand!

Furthermore, that wasn't his only improved aspect of existence, for if he used his Laws in conjunction with his sword technique and Singularity Physique, then it was quite possible that even thousands of miles of land and sea would stand not half a chance at enduring a casual strike from the Crimson Devil Lord!

Nonetheless, there were a few more things that had tremendously improved over the last four decades, and one of the most important of those things were his professions, all of which had achieved the Low-Comet Rank!

Of course, this was only possible after a bunch of time and effort was expended in researching the individually characteristic professions and the relevant Essence Manuals. But it was still a grand achievement, regardless of how much had to go into achieving it.

And it was with these new and improved professions that the Fallen Immortal Mountain had essentially become an impregnable fortress!

On a side note, Azmodeus was also beginning to research a plethora of new techniques that expanded beyond what he could gleam from bits and pieces of ancient technique Scriptures—scriptures that were obtained from all the High-Ranking Elders that were killed over the years…

In addition, the scriptures were also obtained by a new side mission that he had his Mirror Mirage's go on. But to be accurate, it was more of an adventure quest than anything…

It was through these adventures and tomb explorations of his Mirror Mirage's that a number of ancient texts and scriptures were transmitted to the loot-hoarding hands of Azmodeus.

And with that piece of information, everything that had changed over the years had been stated, so let us get back to the topic of what the Infinite Evolution System informed the Crimson Devil Lord of a few years ago…

-

Azmodeus figured there would be a price to pay for such extreme levels of strength progression, even surpassing that of the alien cat—a cat who possessed who knew how many incomprehensible secrets…

And with such absurd speed bordering on insanity, it was only fair that the price would be equally high.

In the end, it all comes down to whether or not it's worth it… Whether the power I yearn for is worth it…

The Infinite Evolution System gave me the option to back out now and let the system dissipate from existence…

He brooded over the subject for a while as he stared up at the intricately carved interior of his cave abode.

I have the option to get rid of the system and live a life of peace—a life of tranquility and love with the people who care about me…

His neutral gaze seemed to soften for half an instant as he looked at the sleeping beauty's latched onto him.

However, when he recalled all that he has been through in both lifetimes—everything that he has paid in order to obtain the opportunity to become stronger—the warmth in his gaze seemed to fade, as it was replaced with an almost deadly coldness.

I have made my choice from the very beginning…

In fact, there was no choice… There never was…

There was only a path forward…

My path forward.

Azmodeus's thoughts stirred as he tenderly caressed the heads of the kind, smart, and beautiful women that had been around him for many years, accompanying him on his journey through Prometheus.

"Although I can't promise you all the life that you deserve, I will treat you the best I can until the moment my silhouette fades away from your memory…" He softly murmured in a voice unable to be heard by the sleeping beauties.

It was in that moment that he understood what his purpose in this life was…

It wasn't the pursuit of money, of worldly pleasures, or even of women…

There was only one thing he was born to become.

"The very best… Unparalleled… The Unparalleled Crimson Devil Lord… That is who I am…"

The Crimson Devil Lord kept on caressing the women snuggled up against him as an indescribable glint flashed past his crimson-colored eyes.

I will become stronger… And on my path of the limitless path of cultivation, I will leave behind me a deep crimson river—a river that will run through all of existence—a river that will leave behind the reflections of everything I have or will do in this renewed life of mine.

OOOM!

A light humming sound seemed to resonate through all of existence, as on a certain day inside a nondescript Cave Abode, a title was created—a title that would etch its way into the hearts of countless beings!
