Chapter 793 - Exploring The New Divine Realm

.

.

So after ascending to G.o.dhood, a lot of things got renewed, and I even got a set of new Stats replacing all of the old, RPG-like stats!

Perhaps these stats were like the ones they had before the System?

And because G.o.ds are just immortal cultivators, these stats show up?

Well, there is still a lot to investigate and discover.

Eating an Origin Core Fragment gave me some valuable knowledge about some stuff, but it was not as if I learned the knowledge of everything in the world, such as this, which took me by surprise.

I wish I could ask the System G.o.ds about this stuff, but even after becoming a Living Deity, it"s not like I can just give them a phone call or something, after all, they"re being suppressed by the System itself… how ironic.

However, the G.o.ds present here were pretty good at answering my questions, and such things as the new stats were something they were already used to.

We had gathered with my family and friends inside of Morpheus Divine Realm and had a large feast in the middle of a beautiful plain filled with flowers.

A large horse-like divine beast was roaming around, peacefully eating gra.s.s or the flowers that grew in this place.

"Now that Kireina-sama has raised to G.o.dhood, most G.o.ds in the entirety of Genesis will know, sadly," sighed Hodhyl.

"Why is that?" I asked.

"Well, as we stated previously when you raise to G.o.dhood, you acquire a special t.i.tle, right?" asked Agatheina.

"Indeed… Mine is Undeath Deity of Abyssal Sins and Divine Commandments…" I said.

"T-That"s quite the amazing t.i.tle for a Rank 1 Living Deity, to be expected of Kireina-sama…" said Morpheus.

"Indeed, it is a fitting t.i.tle of Kireina-sama! Anyways, as you received your t.i.tle, all of us also received a System notification, the World"s Voice, resonating within everything, and telling us about your ascendance into a Living Deity…" said Agatheina.

"Is it bad that everyone knows that?" wondered Brontes.

"Not necessarily bad. In fact, it could be proven to be good. As everyone knows that she is no longer a mortal, perhaps they might stop underestimating her and be warier of her existence, without trying to suppress her as much as Thanatos or Hephaestus did… Although Rank 1 Living Deities are not really that respected…" said Hodhyl.

"Indeed! Kireina-sama, you must raise through the Ranks, at least up to DemiG.o.ddess! However, raising through G.o.dhood stages is a gradual and slow process…" said Agatheina.

"Well, unless you speed it up through special methods!" said Merveim.

"Such as eating other G.o.ds," said Maeralya.

"Indeed, when we ate G.o.ds Divine Soul Fragments, our Cultivation increased a lot, and most of us have even increased our Ranks… I recently got to Rank 9 after defeating a Divine Trial that emerged in my Divine Realm. I received the help of everyone, so it was rather smooth… I might become DemiG.o.d soon!" said Morpheus.

Oh, it seems that Morpheus and the other G.o.ds had gotten stronger as well by eating G.o.ds, and they seem to have been developing new powers from the divine souls they ate in the war against Thanatos" Demon G.o.ds.

Other than Morpheus, the other G.o.ds also raised their Ranks a bit and were helped by the other G.o.ds to defeat their Divine Trials off-camera.

"So eating G.o.ds, huh? But that soon? Hm… I think there might be an even easier way to accomplish this, fufu…" I said.

All of the G.o.ds glanced at me quite surprised!

But it was rather obvious, wasn"t it?

Aside from eating G.o.ds, which I will do by going around the Lower Realm and cleaning it from G.o.ds with bad intentions, I will also do something else.

"I will raise through Ranks in the same way as I bought the Sins and Commandments! By abusing my discount and the divine dungeon shop!" I said.

"Oh!" said everyone in surprise, quickly realizing it.

"That"s true… didn"t you said that in that shop they sold Divine Fragment Elixirs, Kireina-sama?! You can drink those and quickly stockpile power! As long as you can abuse the discount and the large number of divine dungeon points you have… you can raise pretty quickly!" said Agatheina.

"So we are getting into the end game pretty soon!" said Quinn.

"Well, not really, we have to still lay low, and it"s not like I will do it everything right away, I will gradually do so while taking care of everything. There is a lot of dangers to look out for, and also, each time my Living Deity Rank increases, I have to fight against a Divine Trial, which takes time and effort," I said.

"Amazing… but Kireina-sama, what is the limit of Divinity Fragment Elixirs you can buy?" asked Agatheina.

"There is a large variety of attributes, but it seems that I can only purchase them five times… I will drink them all one by one, and then share pieces of my soul with everyone so you can also receive the bonuses. Now that I am a Living Deity and my soul has been refined into a True Divine Soul, its quality has increased, yet I remain with the power to regenerate it easily. Like this, as long as I keep getting stronger, everyone else will as well," I said.

"Amazing, guu! So you don"t have to distribute them and slower your Cultivation, Masta!" said Rimuru.

"Yes, this is a way better and more convenient way. And now that we have Divinity Devouring as well, it should be easy for us to consume parts of your soul and grow stronger," said Brontes.

"But first of all, all of you will be getting into G.o.dhood after I am done a.s.sessing a bunch of stuff, we will go in order, with Rimuru at first, then all of my wives and then my children. Afterward, my friends and allies such as Wagyu and Truhan will have their turn," I said.

"But Kireina-sama wouldn"t you end up pending too much Primordial Essence if you let everyone max their level so fast?" asked Agatheina.

"Well yes, it would be ideal for everyone to reach max level on their own, but we don"t have time to let everyone leisurely do so. I also have 100.000.000.000 Primordial Essence, it should be more than enough if I level up the Spring Skill so I can generate the best refinement of Experience Points," I said.

"W-Wait… so much Primordial Essence!" said Morpheus.

"That"s… the amount of Primordial Essence… it"s insane…" said Merveim.

"What the h.e.l.l?! And I only have around 15 million…" said Marnet.

"As we were so weakened, our Primordial Essence is also quite low… I am at only twenty million…" said Gaia.

"Don"t ask us, we are a bit worse," sighed Helios.

"What? you guys have that low?" I asked.

"Kireina-sama, Primordial Essence is the fundamental energy that makes up a soul and the entirety of your existence as a being, it could be said to be your true HP… Usually, mortals have only a few hundred of it, but as we increase our cultivation and our Soul Ranks increase, we reached G.o.dhood and more, our Primordial Essence begins to acc.u.mulate by the millions, showing the potential of our soul and its power to almost be as if it were immortal… However, even I have only 40 million… Your Primordial Essence levels are too immense, they are… comparable to great G.o.ds of high ranks…" said Agatheina.

"Eh?! That much?! Then why am I still a Rank 1 Living Deity? Well, not like I can directly convert Primordial Essence into my own power…" I said.

"It must be because of the limitations of what you can do with it, perhaps even your soul itself is of lower quality compared to the amount of Primordial Essence within it, so the System might be restricting you to grow stronger and develop yourself more to be able to use all of such power properly…" said Agatheina.

"Perhaps if you were to be let free to convert all of that ridiculous amount of Primordial Essence into your power without properly increasing the quality of your soul and your attainment over the attributes and divinities, you might end up… dying by your own power," said Gaia.

"But indeed, it is possible to convert Primordial Essence into your own power, perhaps when you were still a mortal to the system this was not possible, but now that you are a Living Deity, it should be more than possible! However, you have to be moderate in the amount of Primordial Essence you use, Kireina-sama, as it might end up backfiring if you cannot take on all of the intensity of this power," said Morpheus.

"I see… well you guys are going to help me to do all of this stuff, right? I do not even know how to use my Primordial Essence and make it my own power… Maybe if I make a Skill that can let me do that?" I wondered.

"Create a Skill? Oh, right… Kireina-sama has the System Administrator t.i.tle, she can do such things!" said Agatheina.

"Oh… Then perhaps… you could generate special Skills that could let you control your own powers more efficiently!" said Hodhyl.

"That"s a good idea, guu!" said Rimuru.

"Indeed, if she abuses the System to do that, she should do so right away," said Amiphossia.

"Yes, I am planning to do a complete overhaul of my Skills, t.i.tles, and Cla.s.ses with the new powers I have acquired and the possibilities lying within… But for now, I will leave that for tomorrow morning," I said.

"Indeed, now that you"re a Living Deity, we should celebrate and ask any questions you still had within your head," said Gaia.

"I do wonder, how"s your Divine Realm, Kireina-sama? I remember that you already had Inner Realms that seemed to be like lesser Divine Realms or things like those… What has happened to them? Just by sensing your presence, I can tell that you already have a Divine Core…" said Hydros.

"Oh yeah… about that… All of my Inner Realms were absorbed by the Divine Core and fused alongside my new Divine Realm, which is named Divine Realm of Abyssal h.e.l.l and Divine Heavens… It is… a rather big Divine Realm, and it seems to be separated by small bubble-like realms of their own… Although some seemed to have merged into it, there are others such as the Dream Realm that is too big to fuse with it, so it had remained as a large bubble containing it all, floating within the skies of this Divine Realm… Perhaps we should explore it more in detail, although as my Divine Realm, I can see everything," I said.

"Oh! Entering Kireina-sama Divine Realm! Yes!" said Agatheina.

I quickly opened a rift in s.p.a.ce as I let the G.o.ds enter my Divine Realm, Agatheina had to first absorb her Divine Realm back to her Divine Core and then get in, so she took a few seconds.

After that, I did what was called "Divine Realm Rooting", which was the ability to root your Divine Realm s.p.a.ce within the spatial layers, this is how G.o.ds often rested inside their Divine Realms, despite these Divine Realms being inside of themselves.

This is something that I could not do before with my Inner Realms, as I could only enter them through Aura Clone Avatars.

However, now, I can freely explore my own Divine Realm, and let me tell you, it"s immense.

The Divine Realm I possess is probably as large as the whole Realm of Vida, for starters, which left most G.o.ds completely baffled.

Second, it is separated into three layers.

There is the Divine Heaven layer, which is the entire sky of this Divine Realm, it is a beautiful blue sky covered in an endless amount of gigantic clouds that people can step on, alongside large floating islands filled with life and Divine Materials and Divine Beasts.

There were many strange Divine Beasts that the G.o.ds had never seen before, mostly bird-type ones, majestic birds of all colors, shapes, and sizes, although there were not Angels or something.

This layer also had something of a secret layer above, which was similar to outer s.p.a.ce, although there were not giant spheres of fire as stars, there was a large bubbled containing the Dream World within, which released the light of its countless stars above the Divine Realm.

The second layer was the "earth" or "surface", which was a gigantic sea filled with life, alongside two large continents within, one of them was completely filled with dungeons and labyrinths, most likely containing all of my Inner Realm of Labyrinths, alongside the Dungeons that were inside of my Inner Realm Soul World.

The other continent was smaller, but not less ma.s.sive, as it contained several biomes, from jungles, rain forests, plains, Rocky Mountains, large and arid deserts, and humid places, amongst many others.

It was in this continent where all the people within my Inner Realms went, the entire buildings and Empire were carefully placed near the beach, where many of the former Aquarians and other aquatic demi-humans have been enjoying the beautiful sea and the bountiful harvest of seafood and more.

Some other races such as the Bastet had decided to move near the desert biome, while the dragon centaur near the mountain range, alongside many other races that had decided to move around to places and biomes that suited them better.

Although many Divine Beasts were roaming, they never attacked my inhabitants, and would often run away when they saw one, it is as if Divine Beasts born in Divine Realm obey the will of the owner of the place.

Lastly, there was the third layer, the abyssal h.e.l.l.

The Abyssal h.e.l.l was very similar-looking to the Lower Realm, it was a place filled with flames, large pools of lava and other toxic fluids, gigantic and deadly Divine Beasts fighting constantly, and more…

The Abyssal h.e.l.l itself was separated on its own inner layers as well, and there was currently one more layer at the moment, although it seems that whenever I rank up some more, this entire Divine Realm may expand even further.

The second layer within the Abyssal h.e.l.l Layer was the Soul World, where the Inner Realm Soul World ended at, all the Souls contained there have been sent here, and any that I will ever eat will also be sent here.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the World of Rebirth where the G.o.ds I ate inhabited was put in the Divine Heavens, expanding all over the heavens.

These G.o.ds do not have physical bodies but have ethereal bodies, as only there will remain, they often look over the Divine Realm in amus.e.m.e.nt, and none of them had even thought about leaving this place… I guess I am not reincarnating them anytime soon.

Oh yeah, they are brainwashed or something because they all had begun to wors.h.i.+p me now, yes, even the prideful Geggoron.
