CHAPTER 72 WORLD ORB, ASCENDING

Shadow also decided to slowly conquer Frevi City because his forces were busy searching for world orbs.

After gaining a world orb, they not only greatly improve their strength and rule a world, but a capital city can immediately be upgraded into a kingdom.

After searching for three months, they got closer to finding the world orb of the Beastmen world.

After seeing that the important things in Eligan City were taken care of, Shadow decided to help in the search for world orbs in the Demonic world.

With the origin energy protecting him, he could protect himself from the demonic qi of the demonic world.

After getting inside, he only saw total chaos. This world has a very simple rule: be the hunter or be the prey.

The demons will devour other demons, strengthening themselves every time, so beasts or other beings living in the world are strong and brutal.

Shadow was cruising and looking at the chaos below. He could not do anything here because all of them were corroded by demonic qi. Only by becoming a demon knight could they gain a little bit of their rationality back.

After staying in Demonic World for a week, he found out that even though demonic qi corroded minds, it also increased the speed of the demonic beings levelling up, but that only lasted until Transcending Gold Rank. To achieve further levels, they needed to gain a humanoid form or become more intelligent.

He was also asking why, even though the Transcending Gold Rank demonic beasts in the war are very strong, he could not find any Xiantian Level One. It was actually this reason.

After analysing things in the Demonic World, he deduced that the world orb was in a place where the demonic qi is the densest and purest.

He then kept advancing deeper into the demon world.

A month later, he was now in the deepest part of the Demonic World. He then saw an orb floating about, but what made him hesitant was the huge demon statue that is where the orb is.

Even though it looks like an ordinary statue, it was releasing huge pressure.

Shadow then activated a skill that he developed, the [Draconic Origin Form]. It was a perfect fusion of [Origin Mode] and [Dragon Form].

He then sent an attack towards the statue, only to see it being deflected by a barrier.

Seeing this, he gritted his teeth and charged towards the statue head-on.

When he entered the barrier, he saw that the statue's eyes lit up and was now moving; its four arms attacked him all at once.

He then dodged the attacks, but he suddenly saw the statue open its mouth and release a stream of fire.

Shadow immediately used [Domain Switch] and chose [Devouring Domain], devouring all the flames, but he also found that he was also continuously devouring the energy of the statue.

Realising that the pressure on the statue was diminishing slowly, he became excited and now changed into an offensive mode.

Every attack that hit the statue only caused small cracks, but the energy being used by the statue was also increasing greatly.

Shadow was getting more excited; unbeknownst to him, his eyes were getting redder, and a small horn had grown on his head.

After 3 more hours he finally defeated the demonic world orb but when he touched the orb it suddenly lit up and flows inside his body

He was startled and asked the system what happened.

(Host devoured a huge amount of pure demonic qi, making him a perfect vassal for a world orb of the Demonic World.)

'Vassal for a world orb? '

(A lord of a territory can make the world orb their vassal; it can make the host of the orb extremely powerful and obtain world energy; the beings born in the world will also be very loyal to the host.)

'How can the orb strengthen me? '

(With fate energy, the more luck one has, the luckier he gets; it will also play a major role in establishing a kingdom.)

(World orbs will also strengthen Origin mode by half.)

The last part really made him happy. Every time he used [Origin Mode], he became ten times as powerful as his average form.

(The World Orb has been completely binded into the host's ability to gain Demonic Mode.)

Demonic World Orb (Grade 1): A world orb that contains countless demonic species

Reminder: The orb is only on the basic level, meaning the beings living and born within it can only reach the Xiantian level at most.

After reading this, he returned to Eligan City and bound the Eligan City Orb and the Demonic World Orb, causing an explosion of energy and spirit that gathered towards Eligan City.

After 10 hours, the situation finally cleared, but what he found out was very scary: they had actually teleported into an unknown place, not just the mansion but his whole territory.

He frantically asks the system what happened.

(Your host territory has now become a kingdom, making your territory ascend to a higher realm.)

'Oh, this realm is much higher than the previous realm, which means that we are totally at a disadvantage, aren't we? '

(Yes, on average, a kingdom should have a Saint Tier guarding it.)

Hearing this, Shadow was getting a headache to think that they just ascended by skipping ranks.

(Do not be afraid, Host, because you have just obtained a kingdom. The system connected you to the lower realm and also put a barrier on the kingdom.)

Hearing this shadow relieved him, so he got out to calm his subjects, but he only saw them continuing their daily lives. It seems very probable that they did not know that the territory had ascended.

Knowing this, Shadow decided to keep it a secret, and also knowing there are adventurers going to the Beast Paradise Island, which was in the lower realm, he decided to create the portal in the most noticeable spot. He then called for the important figures of Eligan Kingdom to a meeting.
