”Yes, weʼre pretty much done here.” Lucifer nodded. ”These monsters were of no problem to us, it seems. Aquamarine is a good boy.” She gently petted the huge lion made of azure rainbow water.

”I am!” Aquamarine nodded, while wagging his tail. ”Mama, we got a lot of EXP! My Level went up a lot!”

”I see! Mine should have gone up a lot too.” I nodded, checking the notifications.

[Your Level has increased from Level 115 to Level 127!]

[All your Stats have increased. You gained bonus Skill Points and Stat Points.]

Yep, looks like I got twelve levels out of this, not bad. And I should also pick up all the corpses. Those Blood Cores are certainly going to be useful. I think I might refine them into a new Spiritual Heart. The same way I transformed the concept of Necrotic Core and Demonic Core into yet even more Spiritual Hearts.

Spiritual Energy seems to be incredibly flexible and adaptable. While these energies would not get along as easily normally, with the Spiritual Energy connecting them together, it is possible to assemble everything in order.

Maybe because everything once belonged to a single Origin World or something? And perhaps Spiritual Energy was truly an essence that held the world and its concepts together.

Nonetheless, thereʼs some more loot to pick up.

[The [World Realm Core] Skill Special Ability [Cosmic Treasure Prize Drop] has been activated. Leftover Essence from all defeated foes has become Cosmic Treasures of various Grades.]

After taking what I needed from the corpses, there were still many left. My abilities took care of that as they quickly turned into huge piles of loot and items one after another. Some were instantly refined into Lesser Cosmic Treasures.

[You have collected: [Divine Gold Coins] x55.000 [Vampire Viscounts Blood Elixir (SS Grade)] x20 [Abyssal Crimson Eyes Jewels (S+ Grade)] x10 [Blood Feasting Vampiric Roses (S+ Grade)] x10 [Vampire Counts Divine Blood Soul Elixir (SS Grade)] x10 [Divine Moonstone Fragments (SS+ Grade)] x5 [Divine Moonlight Soul Essence Elixir (SS Grade)] x5 [Crimson Blood Orichalcum Ingot (SS Grade)] x10 [Divine Skill Points Elixir (SS Grade)] x5 [Divine Stat Points Elixir (SS Grade)] x5 [Abyssʼ Vampire Counts Themed Treasure Chest (SS+ Grade)] x3]

”More Divine Gold Coins, what the heck are these for?” I wondered, collecting all the loot inside my inventory. ”I canʼt seem to be able to eat them or process them somehow… Theyʼre the toughest metal Iʼve ever seen, yet it feels like it isnʼt even metal?”

”Iʼm honestly shocked your powers can materialize those coins.” Said Lucifer. ”You may not know, but those Coins is the currency that Higher Dimensional Beings use, such as Constellations.”

”Wait, they have their own currency?” I wondered, feeling slightly surprised. ”Huh, thatʼs pretty neat actually. So is this some sort of universal money everyone uses?”

”Not everyone, but yes. It will come more useful once you can Ascend into higher Planes.” She explained. ”For now, make sure to save them. They might become your lifeline soon enough.”

”Alright then.” I nodded, looking into the horizon.

The darkness of the night never ended. The only light coming from the sky were the three moons, the Silver Moon shone with the faintest of lights, its surface was cracked, and it was missing a third of its mass, which was now rotating around it in the form of a ring of debris.

The crimson moon, the largest of them all, floated menacingly, looking over the world of Abyss like a single eye. And the Emerald moon, only slightly smaller than the Crimson moon, emanated a strange, frightening Aura.

”This world has sure changed a lot from how it used to be.” The Blood God looked around. ”Hmm, but some things remain the same. Youʼve slain four members of the Dracul Family, one of the strongest Vampire Families inside of Abyss. I hope youʼre happy now. The entire family will continue hunting you down until youʼre dead.”

”That makes things easier I think.” I rubbed my chin with a slight, playful smile. ”They can come as many as they want. Itʼll be good for some easy EXP and exercise before fighting the Outer Gods…”

As we flew above the forest, I cut through anything I found was of some value. I ended getting a few hundred ”Blood Treasures” which were like Lesser Cosmic Treasures. I stashed them away inside my World Realm and let them grow in the area that had been terraformed by the pieces of Ravenfolt.

Once we reached the end of the gigantic forest, we were greeted with yet another new landscape. This time, it wasnʼt an arid wasteland, but plains covered on purple, red, and black grass. The grass was incredibly long and looked sharp like blades.

I could notice several of these grasses having crimson eyes and directly looking at me. And in the distance, I could expand my senses and easily see thousands of other lifeforms moving everywhere. Mostly Vampiric Beasts, from the smallest ones the size of insects to the largest apex predators hunting the ones that ate the sharp grass.

”Despite how dead this world might look like, it is truly full of life, with its own ecosystem and somewhat of a balance, huh?” I wondered.

And just after that…

[You have fully digested the powerful Vampires youʼve consumed.]

[You gained +200.000 Essence.]

[You gained +100.000 All Stats.]

[You gained +25.000 Cosmic Power.]

[You acquired [Fragment of the Dao of Vampiric Paths] x10]

[You acquired [Vampiric Paths Divinity Fragments] x30]

Oh, looks like I finished digesting my meal. I gained some nice bonus stats, but no derived Skills from them yet! Well, thatʼs fine, honestly. They were more like cannon fodder than anything comparable to Oceanus or Shub-Niggurath in terms of scale.
