Chapter 2405: Hades
Using the Omen of the Blood Sun, his genetic expertise, and the knowledge he had harvested from all those he had killed, Cain was able to guide the matrix of his new body. From the very beginning, he chose speed as its core attribute, improving it at every foundational level.
The Flow had already granted him the ability to move through the universe using his Primordial Essence alone. If he advanced further, that power might eventually extend to his physical body as well.
That possibility could be the key to finally unifying his three bodies, allowing Cain to take a transcendental step forward in both cultivation and potential, rising beyond the boundaries of the First Order Neo-Demon Tier.
"First things first," Cain murmured. "Grow strong enough to return home."
Determination and focus surged within the soul of the Scarlet King as he returned to his work.
Of course, guiding the advancement of his future body and nurturing the Ancestor Drop inside the fourth cocoon were not the only things Cain was doing.
The Scarlet King continued sending his oceanic creatures beyond the borders of the Ocean of the Blood Sun to hunt and collect more beings. As soon as Satan recovered from his wounds, he began leading the forces of the Blood Sun into increasingly dangerous territories—regions where far stronger creatures had made their homes.
The thrill and sense of success within Cain’s soul grew steadily as Alpha-Omega Overgod corpses began to fall into the blood ocean.
These battles were far from easy. Satan was forced to retreat and heal between each encounter, but the amount of life force and energy harvested from those corpses was immense.
Not only did it accelerate the growth of the other two cocoons, but it also enriched the energy reserves of the Ocean of the Blood Sun itself. As a result, the growth of the Ancestor Drop and the forming body became significantly faster—without sacrificing potential.
