Chapter 2354: Cain vs Anark
Cain’s smile grew radiant as he reviewed his stats. Although he had yet to achieve the final level of the Doomsday Arts, he had advanced greatly within the Second Level.
The endurance of his flesh and muscles was now almost on par with that of a Late Alpha–Omega Overgod Treasure, and that also translated into greater defenses for his soul and mind.
As for his Ego Wave, it had more than doubled. And it was not merely a matter of quantity.
The quality of his power had undergone a fundamental transformation.
The Lucid Dream and his Alter-Ego now existed on an entirely new level, greatly enhancing every ability and force he could unleash through the Ego Eternal Path of Power’s Resurreccion.
Each thought carried greater authority. Each act of will resonated more deeply with reality itself.
"The evolution of my Primordial Path also strengthened my body," Cain murmured softly. "And I can feel my Astral and Essence cultivation making significant strides forward... approaching the Middle Stage."
Seeing such comprehensive growth brought Cain a profound sense of reassurance, which was greatly appreciated. He was no longer in the Crimson World, where the Demon King and great True Depravitas carried the burden of leadership.
The Scarlet King was in the Nine Empyrean Suns Universe, and the true weight of the universe rested squarely upon his shoulders.
He needed to be the spearhead that would pierce the World of the Root.
Everyone was looking to him to lead.
It was an immense burden—but one he had to face head-on. And this surge of power was exactly the boost of confidence he needed.
