Chapter 13: Advancement to Higher Level Demon, Transcendent!

　　With the orc army knotted in defeat, the demons quickly took over a large swath of this realm.

　　Areas occupied by demons are quickly corrupted and become less survivable.

　　The demons invaded and began destroying everything they could see, even those orc civilians who didn't escape in time were captured and turned into slaves or had their souls extracted and turned into slaves.

　　And a few hundred kilometers away from them was the largest city in this orc world, but at this point it had been turned into a brick wall.

　　It is difficult to be breached in a short period of time.

　　Both sides also engaged in a brutal tug-of-war here.

　　In total, it lasted close to a year before the orcish defenses were officially destroyed.

　　Although the defenses had been breached, many of the strongest members of the orcs still organized a small army to resist in each of the gathering areas.

　　It was difficult for the demons to defeat all of them for a while, after all, this world was too huge and the demons could only eat away at them little by little.

　　....

　　And by a crater in this world.

　　Abbott is absorbing the essence of the demon that he signed in to give earlier.

　　"Well, it could be a breakthrough."

　　A closer look up.

　　Abbott's perceived body was full of blood and still was unable to absorb any more essence.

　　The strength has reached the upper limit of intermediate level demons!

　　Unlike normal demonic advancements, Abbott's advancements are all thick and thin.

　　Resources that would allow ten intermediate level demons to evolve yet Abbott only used them to advance to high level demons.

　　But there are benefits to this.

　　That is, once Abbott is able to successfully advance, then his strength will rise by a large margin, far surpassing those ordinary high-ranking demons.

　　Abbott called out into the air.

　　"Ow!"

　　A tens of meters long metallic glowing black dragon spread its wings and came to Abbott's side.

　　It was Onyxia, who had been born close to a year ago now!

　　Over the course of the year, Abbott signed up to get all the nutrients to feed her.

　　This also led to her growth rate far exceeding that of similar dragons, and it would take an average dragon an estimated fifty years to grow to its current size.

　　Although there was still a difference from the adult body that would eventually be able to grow to a hundred meters long, the Onyxia at this point could already be considered a decent fighting force.

　　Onyxia flies down and rubs her head affectionately against Abbott.

　　Abbott patted her on the head and said.

　　"I'm going to advance here, so check the surroundings for me and don't let anyone get close."

　　The black dragon nodded his head at that, then lifted off.

　　"Specially picked this no-man's land, hoping no one would bother me."

　　With that said, Abbott closed his eyes and began the progression.

　　Only to see him bend over and crouch down, the blood qi on his body began to boil, and countless red threads made of blood qi surrounded him.

　　He's gradually returning to the state he was in as a newborn.

　　It turned into a demonic cocoon!

　　....

　　This time the progression took close to a day, and Onyxia remained hovering over the crater, chasing off anyone who approached.

　　Only to see that the Demon Cocoon over there had moved at that moment.

　　A hand broke through the restraints and reached out of the cocoon.

　　The hand, however, was not one of those unusual demon claws, but more like a human hand.

　　Abbott crawled out of his cocoon.

　　At this point, if anyone saw Abbott's image, they would be shocked.

　　Handsome face, strong physique, black hair, this was alive and well a human being.

　　But other features on the body confirm that Abbott is an actual demon.

　　The devil's horns, the blood-red eyes and the black feathered wings on his back all point to Abbott's identity.

　　Abbott guessed the reason for his return to human form; the evolution of a high level demon instinctively transforms itself into the form that is best suited in its soul.

　　At this point Abbott found himself getting stronger.

　　The Demonic Physique was upgraded from Rare to Epic level, and the physical quality was further improved.

　　Berserk power flowed through his body, and his might could be felt in every one of his grabs.

　　Then he flapped his wings, and sure enough, he managed to fly, and it felt good to fly through the air.

　　And Abbott flew through the air, realizing that he was perceiving things a little differently than before.

　　He realized that the world in front of him seemed to be made up of unspoken runes, but when he looked closely he couldn't see anything.

　　Abbott immediately realized what it was.

　　Rules!

　　The power of subtle rules.

　　The rules of the entire world he could already faintly feel, but it was still difficult to comprehend.

　　Not only that, but he looked up and realized that he could now perceive with his naked eyes the divine kingdoms where those gods of this realm were located.

　　Perceive the divine power!

　　If Abbott is able to go further and stronger, then he will have his own real name and appellation.

　　From the time a demon advances to a high level demon, they will have the opportunity to awaken their true name and receive a title that is uniquely theirs.

　　For example, the Layer Master of the fourth layer of the Abyss, the King of Lies and Deception is his title.

　　Such powerful existences would often pass on their deeds and prestige to countless realms and be revered by all beings.

　　Not only that, but if he chose to have a group of people truly believe and serve him, then he could ignite the divine fire and gradually become a deity with divine power starting from becoming a demigod.

　　But Abbott hasn't awakened his true name and title yet because he's only just now advanced to High Order Demon, and High Order Demon is only the beginning of what those mighty ones have in store for them, and there's still a much longer way to go.

　　So from this moment on, Abbott is truly detached from his physical body and becomes a transcendent being with the opportunity to be above all things!

　　Abbott swore that one day, his fame would spread throughout the Endless Abyss!

　　Falling down, Abbott was just about ready to try his form.

　　"Ding, the cooldown time for signing in is up, please sign in or not?"

　　A system alert appeared.

　　"Sign in!"

　　"Congratulations to the host for signing in for one year in a row, rewarded with the Cloak of Pride!"

　　A blood-red cloak appeared in front of Abbott.

　　Cloak of Pride?

　　It's a strange name that leaves Abbott a little puzzled.

　　Abbott took a look at the cloak and was dazzled by the attributes on it.

　　Cloak of Pride: legendary level.

　　Never breaks.

　　Defense Level: epic!

　　Possesses the skill: Invocation!

　　The Invocation can store up to 100,000 nearby undead souls killed in battle on weekdays.

　　Undead souls can be released to automatically attack surrounding enemies, but once released undead souls cannot be retrieved.

　　Undead souls can last up to seven days and will automatically obliterate after that time is up.

　　The duration is based on the strength of the individual undead.

　　"Awesome, with this I can be a one man army!"

　　Abbott exclaimed.

　　Once equipped, Abbott lifts off with Onyxia.

　　At this moment, he was ready to go for a good turn in this world of orcs, after all, with his current strength, unless he bumped into a deity, he was not afraid of any enemy at all.

　　It's not even certain who wins or loses between those weaker deities and Abbott!
