Chapter 370 – It’s Time

After the meeting, Chaos and company had decided many things to do, but the first thing they had decided to do was spend time inside of Chaos Divine Realm, which was confined from the outside world and which it had the power to dilate time, meaning that the time inside was faster than outside, this way they could be able to train for long periods of time with barely any days passing outside, it was the most efficient way of getting used to their new abilities and also to learn new ones and to perfectionate their already existing magic and abilities.
Using this, they planned to train and cultivate their energies in large quantities never seen before so they could finally grow strong enough to be of any help at all…
The second part of the plan was going out and chasing down the fragments of the forbidden one, the one with the Ego, who will attempt to free all the other fragments confined in another three sealed temples. This way, Chaos would be able to grow strong enough by consuming all these fragments.
And after that, they would take another break before finally confronting Valen and his group with the most strength and force they could muster, which might even include the rage of the planet itself…
It was a simple plan that mostly had a lot of training into consideration, but it was the only thing they could do for now, train, train, and train even more, the only thing these people could do, and the only thing they were willing to do was train until they fell to the ground completely dead and continued to train even harder than before.
With that into consideration, and with the plan already planned, they decided to receive the gift of Chaos.
Chaos sat down over his throne as he looked at his allies, his hand opened as he began to gather the primordial power of cosmic energy, which gathered within his hand as if a small galaxy had suddenly formed…
FLAAASH!
CRACK!
And then, with a cracking sound, the energy materialized and crystallized into a large blue-colored crystal. Chaos used more energy than he thought he would use, and spent a few millions of mana in the process as well, but it was all worth it for the ultimate goal of everyone growing stronger, his soul felt smaller as he used around 10% of his current cosmic energy to create this powerful cosmic energy core.
The first one receiving it was of course Abyss.
"This crystal… How do I use it?" she wondered. "Do I just put it inside of me?"
"No, eat it." said Chaos."
"Eat it? Sure?" she asked.
"Yes." Answered Chaos with a dead-serious stare.
"Okay…"
Abyss swallowed the core in an instant, as she felt a bit of energy but nothing much…
"Nothing happened- UWAH!"
FLASH!
Suddenly, her entire body began to exude cosmic energy, which started to spread around her body, ever part of her slimy aberrant body started to gain cosmic energy! And as a Shoggoth, a race very close to this energy, she began to harbor it at an incredibly fast speed, gaining more and more power in the process.
"T-This is cosmic energy?" asked Abyss.
The energies started to converge around her body and the core emerged inside of her chest, staying quiet there, the energies quickly dissipated, and it felt as if nothing had happened…
But it had, yes, something has really happened, Abyss had unlocked an incredible level of power now… well, energy, which she now would have to somehow be able to use.
Compared to Chaos, it could be said he had a thousand while she had ten… it was a very small quantity, but the nourishment of the core using other energies would increase this quantity over time. Chaos had designed Cosmic Cores to be able to absorb energy of any type and transform it into cosmic energy, just like the seed of the universe was able to do… although to a way smaller and incredibly nerfed scale, but that it worked nonetheless according to such expectations.
Now with that in mind, Chaos had the power to literally enhance anyone's strength using Cosmic Energy, and he began to give everyone a Cosmic Core, for those incapable of eating like Belphegor, he simply stuck the core inside of his skull and used Synthesis to fuse it inside, the process was the same and he gained a bit of cosmic energy.
When the entire process ended, it has been almost an entire day an everyone was exuding an faint amount of cosmic auras around their bodies, which looked as beautiful as aurora borealis themselves… with that done, Chaos quickly began a small class where he taught everyone how to use this energy properly, from the very basics to the more complicated ways of using it, as he wanted everyone to be capable of using this energy to grow as strong as possible and as quick as possible, it wasn't that he was ruthless with them or something, but they were in a hurry, even with the time dilation, and they knew it, so they had to quickly learn and adapt to it.
When the classes ended, almost a day had passed but everyone was more or less able to control a part of this energy, and quickly went on their own ways to grow stronger, some began to channel magic and gather it into their chest to refine it with cosmic energy, others went to practice and use martial techniques, trying to figure out ways to gain more power, all while they also constantly slain divine beast inside their divine realms to gain energy through the system and slowly grow stronger, even if this process had now become incredibly slow, this was still working for them so they did it anyways, as much as possible…
Meanwhile, now that Chaos was on his own, he began to do the same, putting some clones to slay divine beasts all while he practiced using cosmic energy and also multitasked, going to the underground of his castle, and seeing the summoning artifact.
"It is time to eat this." He thought.
Indeed… he was going to finally eat the summoning artifact!
