Chapter 1554 Demonic Physique Growth
Two weeks have passed since then, and in between training, relaxing, and continuously training again, I've been steadily improving my physique. But not only that, but also my other Demonic Ability, one I acquired by devouring and absorbing Marchosias powers. Apparently, unlike Divine Abilities, Demonic Abilities improve based on my Rank as a Demon King.
"Phew…" I had just finished eating around 50% of all the demons we've ever hunted and killed so far, and it felt incredible. There wasn't as much agony anymore, and just a very intense burning sensation that stayed for hours. I had probably gotten used to the pain that demonic energy causes now. Oh, and I've been eating these fuckers raw, even drinking their acidic blood.
I looked at the system messages with a slight sense of satisfaction. There was still over two months to go but I had already donned half of the demon meat. If I can get the other half done, just how strong can I grow?
[You have finished digesting hundreds of demonic beasts and demon corpses.]
[You earned +200.000.000 Demonic Energy.]
[Your Resistance against Demonic Energy damage has increased greatly.]
[The [Demonic Physique: Rank 1 Temper (SSS)] Demonic Ability has greatly improved. Your Demonic Physique is becoming a greater part of your own body.]
[The [Infernal Wolf's Blazing Rampage (SS)] Demonic Ability has grown stronger due to the repeated usage of its ability and its combination with the Demonic Aura.]
[Because of your training, the cost of upgrading this ability has decreased by half]
[You have exchanged 50.000.000 Demonic Energy, the [Infernal Wolf's Blazing Rampage (SS)] Demonic Ability has Ranked Up to SSS Rank!]
"It's done, it has improved a lot already in just two months!" I celebrated. "And it hasn't just been eating demon meat and drinking demon blood, I've been steadily training my aura as well!"
[It looks like your training is paying off faster now, Drake! Well done.]
[Make sure to check the Abilities to see how much they have developed.]
[Also, I think you should be able to upgrade your Demon King Seed to the next Rank! You do have enough Demonic Energy for just another Rank Up.]
"Excellent! Let me see."
[Demonic Physique: Rank 1 Temper (SSS)]
A Demonic Ability created after the absorption of large quantities of Demonic Energy into the body. It can grow stronger past basic Ability Ranks as the Demon King Seed advances.
Grants the ability for non-demons to gain a Demonic Physique, allowing for the flow of Demonic Energy without causing as much damage or destruction into the body.
The Body can be constantly reinforced through the usage of Demonic Energy, and the risks of the body being destroyed or damaged decrease exponentially.
Boosts Flow of Demonic Energy through the Physique by 1050% -> 1100%
Resistance against Demonic Energy Corrosion and Demonic Attribute Damage increases by +50% -> +60%
Decreases Damage Taken from Demonic Energy flowing inside the Physique by -85% -> -90%
Enhances the Proficiency on using Demonic Energy through the Physique to unleash physical techniques or attacks by +730% -> +760%
Increases the Power and Effects of Techniques, Abilities, Magic, and Skills that use Demonic Energy by +530% -> +560%
When fighting Demon-type foes, your Demonic Physique can absorb 15% -> 20% of the Damage inflicted from Demonic Energy-fueled abilities or magic as Demonic Energy up to a certain point.
You can now shape Demonic Energy into different forms through [Demonic Energy Aura], Damage Dealt using this Aura increases by +100% -> +150%, and you can drain 10% -> 15% of the damage dealt as Health and Mana.
The user can further Refine their own Physique through this Ability, cultivating a True Demon's Physique, unlocking new Abilities.
"Oh? I guess it increases a little bit now… Well, it still good. I am very soon to decreasing all damage taken from the demonic energy flowing inside of me to one hundred percent! With that, I'll be able to fully cultivate it without any issues." I smiled proudly.
[Infernal Wolf's Blazing Rampage (SSS)]
A Demonic Ability that belonged to Marchosias, the powerful Demon Lord capable of transforming into a gigantic blazing wolf, known for his madness and rampaging attacks.
Harness all Fire-type Abilities and Divinities into your body at the same time, combining them perfectly and harmoniously, and use your soul to fuel their power, Increasing your Attack Power and Movement Speed by +300% -> +400%, alongside Increasing the Power of all Fire-type Abilities and Magic by +500% -> +600% while on flames, however, you take -1% -> -0.8% of your HP as Damage every second.
While unleashing a Blazing Rampage, any foe you attack as your body is on flames will receive tremendous consecutive damage from both physical blows and flames, dealing up to +800%?-> +900% Damage, while ignoring -30% -> -40% of a foe's resistances to the Fire Attribute and setting them ablaze, draining their strength and vitality.
When you activate this Ability, you can now summon the [Demonic Spirit: Fire-Spitting Demon Wolf Marchosias] to aid you in battle in exchange of Demonic Energy and Divine Power. This Spirit will have 50% of your total stats and will regenerate endlessly for as long as 10 minutes, before it fades away. (New Ability!)
"And this… So I can summon Marchosias as some sort of temporary Demonic Spirit?" I wondered. "This can't be a coincidence, did the Unique Skill: Spirit Creation affect this somehow?"
[Yes, Unique Skills can affect and transform Demonic and Divine Abilities over time, but the rate in which it happens is very low because you weren't training this much before.]
[But now that you've been fully dedicating yourself to grow stronger and train your abilities to see how far they can grow, yes, it is possible. Your other Unique Skills also possess this ability. We have to find ways to make them affect other abilities though.]
"Interesting… Summoning Marchosias will definitely come in handy from time to time." I nodded. "Now, to the meat and potatoes of the whole thing. Let's do it all over again, Gluttony."
[You have exchanged 500.000.000 Demonic Energy.]
[The Demonic Energy is flowing inside of your [Demon King Seed: Gluttony]!]
[The Demon King Seed is overflowing with Demonic Energy! Its roots are expanding across your entire Soul and Body.]
[You're beginning to Rank Up!]
"I'm going to rip you to shreds now, be prepared!" Gluttony roared.
