Chapter 1715 Testing New Abilities And Choosing A Divine ss


    -----


    The power of a Venerable was so ridiculous that it made meugh.


    But that wasn''t everything yet.


    As I took no damage at all, the monsters started to wonder what was happening.


    "GRRHH?"


    "What''s wrong? Are you scared?"


    I swung my hand towards the lion''s face, the ws of the armor could as well, sh through anything if they were indestructible.


    CRAAASH!


    Their entire face exploded into pieces, the head of a monster who should be as tough as a continent''s rocky mantle.


    The gigantic lion of over three hundred meters copsed, its divine blood covering the grasnds, resembling a crimson tsunami.


    "Hoh, not bad… Now, let''s make things fair for you bastards."


    I swung my hand, blessing them with Divine Power, the Divine Beasts roared, suddenly growing muscr and powerful.


    That is the power of [Holy Dungeon Blessing], I was able to conjure it separately anyways.


    "GROOAARR!"


    The gigantic gori swung his massive fists against me, for the first time, I felt like some slight damage was taken.


    BOOOM!


    An explosion of pure divinity erupted everywhere, my armor trembled and then, hundreds of monstrous beasts materialized out of thin air.


    Made of abyssal darkness and holy light, they roared ferociously, jumping over the gori and exploding, tearing through its flesh and bones and sttering it over the ground.


    "Hah… Well, that was incredible. Who''s next?"


    This armor ability alone was worth all the problems and pain that getting that damned Ascendancy Law gave to me.


    "SHAAAH!"


    The hydra and the rest of the monsters charged against me, explosions of elements, breath attacks, divine magic spells, w attacks, mighty bites, everything fell over my body.


    CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!


    Yet, even with my buff, they were barely dealing any damage whatsoever!


    "How weak. Begone from my sight."


    My armor overflowed with divine and abyssal powers, as thousands of {Holy Abyssal Dungeon Monster Spirit Bombs} were summoned based in all the damage the armor took. They had all kinds of shapes, giant draconic horses, wyverns, bats, monkeys, lions, tigers, rhinoceros, angelic beings, demonic creatures.


    Anything!


    They attached themselves over all foes, and then detonated into countless ck and golden explosions, tearing through their incredibly tough hide and scales, and tearing them to shreds to the point they fell into piles of flesh and bones.


    BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!


    "Not bad at all…"


    As Iughed, I noticed the two other Venerables looking at me in disbelief.


    "J-Just what is that Divinity Core Ability?!" muttered the fox venerable. "It makes no sense at all!"


    "He… He truly is a monster, even amongst Venerables,"ughed the Ice Queen. "Because Drake''s powers are so strange and different, the resulting abilities born from his Divinity Core ended being just as strange… but incredibly powerful too."


    "This is not fair…" sighed the fox venerable. "Why is a damn divine dragon bing a venerable! Yggdrasil, fix this!"


    She was quite salty, I could tell.


    "Well, looks like they died already… Nah,e back."


    I quickly utilized my necromancy abilities together with my Ascendancy Law Essence, rapidly rising and reconstructing the bodies of the monsters into Rank 10 Undead Divine Beasts.


    I imbued them with a feral, berserk state, and made theme at me again, despite being my undead that should be loyal to me.


    I needed sandbags after all.


    "SHAAAH!"


    "ROOAAR!"


    "GRUOOH!"


    Their attacks became more intense and their movements faster, being risen as Undead by me made them even stronger than when alive.


    Perfect!


    "Now prepare yourself! Your trials are yet to be done. {Demonic Soul-Devouring Nightmare Frost me Domain}!"


    FLAAASH!


    I summoned the other ability of the Divinity Core, unleashing a domain of red-, blue-, ck-, and purple-colored mes that constantly shifted and seemed to be burning space itself, melting it away and making it aponent of my domain.


    The Domain quickly trapped all the monster inside in an endless sea of mes, burning their bodies to a crisp and then shapeshifting into countless, gigantic jaws that devoured their souls apart.


    At the end, they weren''t even able to fight back, and died as easily as one crush an ant with their foot.


    "T-This is stupidly ridiculous, how strong are Venerables?" I wondered, looking at the sea of mes finish their meal, I gained all the power these monsters had.


    Ding!


    [You have devoured several Divine Beasts of Rank 10!]


    [You gained +500.000 Ascendancy Law Essence.]


    [You cannot gain ss EXP, please choose a ss to be able to Level Up.]


    [You have devoured several powerful Rank 10 Souls.]


    [You gained +500.000 Soul Aether]


    [You gained +200.000 Arcane Force]


    Not only I gained some Ascendancy Law Essence, but I even gained some stats! Soul Aether and Arcane Force are now stats, the first represents my soul, well, I already had that, but it has numerical values now. Thetter is an evolution of Magic Power, and it is all about non-physical damage.


    The Ranks based in letters are nowpletely gone, and everything increases based on numbers again, just like when I started, the system went back to its roots, but now even more improved than before.


    "Right, Leveling Up! Ipletely forgot about that too…"


    Before checking the other Cores, I should probably get a new ss while I''m at it, so I don''t waste more kills and potential ss EXP.


    I had never leveled up before, it was something I was slightly jealous of Surtr, I could only grow by eating Mana Cores back then, when I was a mortal ice dragon.


    But now, when I''ve be a Venerable, I can finally level up!


    …Which feels slightly redundant, considering it would have been nicer when I was weaker.


    But considering all the monsters out there in this world, it''s not bad.


    "Andromeda, can you show me which sses I can pick?" I asked her.


    [Well… Every single one.]


    "Wait, what?"


    [Yes, every single one is avable! There are thousands! Checking all of them would take forever, Drake! Why are you so talented?!]


    "I-Is that a problem?! Hahah… Well, show me the three strongest sses then, to make the choice easier."


    [Oh! Okay then, that''s much easier! Wait a bit…]


    [Sorting out sses.]


    [Choosing Strongest sses.]


    [The three Strongest sses avable have been selected, please choose one between the three]:


    [Divine Heavenly Alchemist of Creation] n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    [Demonic Asura Of One Thousand Arms of Destruction]


    [Abyssal Dungeon Master of Fractured Dimensions]


    "These are tough choices…"
