This anchor is the point of connection between the Omega and the essence of death that they take. The anchor also prevents the Omega from being overwhelmed by the death essence. He used one of his horns because it is a manifestation of his divine ability. The horn contains some law fragments of the law of Slaughter so it is a very good anchor for the death essence.
The law of Slaughter is the orthodox law that empowers through killing. So using his horn allowed the efficient extraction of death essence. In other words, he gets more power from each dead thing. It goes well with the fact that he doesn't have a limit on the amount of death essence that he can handle.
He felt the changes to his body and commented silently, "It added less than 0.5% boost."
He shook his head. "It is too little. But little at a time makes big."
Then he looked in the direction of the totem. "Of course, big at a time is always best. Saving little at a time cannot compare to stealing someone else's savings."
He has his eyes on the totem. Other shamans improve their capacity for death essence by using the amplification of the remnants of warriors within the totem pillar. The bond with a totem pillar strengthens their souls and their anchor but he doesn't need that.
In fact, he wants to convert the entire remnants in the totem into death essence and use the whole totem to strengthen himself directly. He is sure he can handle it just as he is sure that Sauron will want his head if he tampers with the totem.
Omegas gain death essence from any dead thing. It can be what they killed or what someone else kills. It is always best to be what they killed personally and the extraction should be done immediately after death.
But Omegas have limited power and time. It is more efficient to use the entire manpower of a pack to hunt for you. That's why he blesses the pack in exchange for offerings. It is even better to use the thousands of years of accumulation of several packs contained within a totem pillar to make death essence. Unfortunately, that is a no-go for him as of now.
He chuckled to himself. "I will do it or my name isn't Ragnarok."
Other shamans can't do this because they are not strong enough to pull out the remnants from the totem for their use. They also don't have the capacity to take advantage of the large amount of remnants in the totem even if they can. He can but he wants to make sure that the boost he gets from it will make him strong enough to handle Sauron if he does it. Because there is no going back once it is done.

The normal limit for Mana entities is 1,000 stats. He has broken that limit a long time ago. His Mana affinity increased from 35% to 55% because of his breakthrough into Mana entity. His spirit was also able to expand to twice the normal level because of his strong body. But the most important change to him as a Mana entity is the new POWER stat. It is a stat that is limited to only paragons.
It is the representation of the amplification that they possess due to their connections. This amplification is in the percentage and it can be used on any one stat at any point in time. His stat is from death essence so it can't be used to boost his Vitality and to improve his spirit.
Death essence can't heal wounds so it can't be used to speed up his Vitality. His spirit is also required to control and restrain death essence so that he is not consumed by it. So his spirit is exempted from the amplification too.
These limitations are only applied to him and other Omegas. Alphas and Alpha of Alphas don't have these limitations. They get their POWER boost from the living so their boost can amplify every stat that they have.
He sighed and said to himself. "I have more work to do."
Then he called to the acolyte waiting outside. "Bring in more people."
There are always more people who want his blessings. They form a long line of people waiting along the path that leads up to his abode from the foot of the mountain to the peak. Each person has at least one offering for him.
It is a constant and steady supply of prey and power for himself. He has acquired a 2,660% boost because of his efforts these past few years. He only stops occasionally during the day to take breaks.
The breaks are for him to rest and recover his spiritual energy. He doesn't actually need the breaks. Spiritual energy is a low-level type of soul energy. The rate at which his soul regenerates it is faster than he can use it. So he doesn't need breaks. But it will be odd to others if he is constantly making blessings without taking any breaks.
The acolyte brought in the next batch of people and he blessed them. This went on throughout the day and even into the night. He doesn't need to sleep so he doesn't close for the night. It is not suspicious for a Mana entity to not sleep so he gets away with it. He has worked constantly like this for decades accumulating strength.
