The symbol of ascension to Demigod is to weave a domain using universal laws.

Surrounding Peggy, a vast swarm of black tadpoles emerged from the air, which were the conceptualized Death Law. They covered the sky and earth, densely packed, intertwining with each other, gradually forming a dark ocean.

In the terms of cultivation, it was first "Great Dao Becoming Abyss," followed by "Unity of Body and Tao."

Subsequently, the girls saw Peggy's body becoming dim, as if her entire form was sinking into nihility, and finally collapsed into a large group of tadpoles, merging into the endless dark sea.

Eventually, the dark sea also gradually contracted, reforming into Peggy's shape.

At the moment she ascended to Lv.20, an invisible Magic Tide shook and spread towards all directions, soon extending over the entire planet's magnetic field.

The Main Plane, the three major Otherworld planes, the Subconscious Ocean, the Shadow Realm, the Spirit Realm, the Star Realm, and all sorts of Half-planes and Plane Fragments felt the tremors of the cosmic laws.

A mysterious and indescribable feeling surfaced in everyone's minds. Whether human or Alien Race, whether on the Helel planet or other planets, Demigods suddenly "saw" a certain symbol.

Death, "Death," and single words understood within different races entangled together like tangled threads, and then transformed into a line of symbols.

Silent Void.

The new title of this newly ascended Demigod.

The so-called Silence means no energy; the so-called Void means no mass. Recalling the meaning of the earlier symbols, everyone roughly guessed the Law she primarily cultivated.

In the sky of Fire Island, Peggy, lying on the ground, opened her eyes and blankly looked around at the girls.

"How do you feel?" Nora asked with concern.

"I feel..." Peggy, not knowing why, subconsciously wanted to say "I am Death," which was the unique inspiration she gained after ascending to the Demigod Rank.

But saying that would definitely scare everyone, so instead, Peggy merely sat up from the ground, letting her thoughts cool for a moment before saying,

"I am now a Demigod."

The girls then cheered joyfully. Although they felt a bit left behind by Peggy's significant progress, at this moment... after all, The Azure Longsword Team officially had a Demigod, didn't it?

No, very soon there would be two.

On the other side, upon learning of Peggy's successful ascension, Aske also began to weave his own domain.

Countless Swords, axes, clubs, Daggers, and gunpowder representing the conceptualized War Law emerged from the ground beneath his feet, afterwards slowly transforming into a sharp white light.

Domain Weaving complete, what followed was... Body Conceptualization.

The integration of the War Law began from the tips of his fingers, gradually covering each finger, the palm, the wrist, the arm, then the shoulders, and finally spreading over the head and down into the legs, turning Aske's entire body into a sharp, blazing white light.

The cosmic law shook once more, and the Demigods, who were originally still immersed in their understanding of the Death Law, suddenly astonished to discover another person had ascended to Demigod.

In fact, in the vast numbers of the cosmic galaxies, someone ascends to Demigod every moment; however, not every Demigod's ascension causes a violent cosmic tremor—only a certain fundamental and powerful law does.

The symbols and strange phenomena that emerged this time were slightly less intense than the earlier "Death" but surpassed it in scale. Attack, defense, alliance, betrayal, persuasion, deception... densely packed texts overlaid until it was almost unreadable, eventually forming a larger symbol.

War, "War"... still displayed in the languages understood by each, appeared before the eyes of all Demigods.

Purgatory Plane, a slender, enchanting figure clad in a long robe was calmly walking beside a river of flowing lava.

Suddenly, she raised her head as if sensing something, detecting the titles of two newly ascended demigods.

Silent Void, and...

Source of Turmoil.

The face of a young man appeared in her mind; beneath the shadow of her hood, a faint smile emerged.

"It's quite fitting, Source of Turmoil... Camellia, you need to hurry."

"Otherwise, there will be no more opportunities."

On Fire Island, Aske, who had become a demigod, re-formed his figure from his domain.

The girls looked at him nervously.

"What are you all looking at me for?" Aske asked curiously, "It's over. Go on, hurry up and cultivate."

As he asserted his authority as a squad leader, everyone reluctantly dispersed, leaving only Peggy behind.

"Aske." Peggy rubbed her temples uncomfortably, "It feels like something has been added here, and it's quite uncomfortable."

"That's the erosion of the Law," Aske sighed.

Crossing the demigod threshold meant that the body had fully merged with the Law, allowing the Transcendent to conceptualize their body at any time, thereby becoming immune to most damage from ranks below demigod.

From Level 20 to Level 30, it is the gradual merging of the Spiritual Body with the Law. This merging is spontaneous; even if you sleep all day long doing nothing, the Experience Points steadily increase, hence it is more appropriately called "erosion."

The higher the level, the deeper the erosion, and the easier it is for the Transcendent to perceive illusions and whispers—external signs of the "human" sanity being damaged.

From Level 30 to Level 40 is the stage when the Mind Body is eroded by the Law. At this time, the illusions and whispers become tangible monsters, forcing the Transcendent to continually fight them, otherwise, the erosion will accelerate.

Therefore, Level 20 is referred to by players as "the peak of the golden experience" because this level has the strongest combat power and the least negative effects; as the level continues to climb, the corresponding increase in combat power gradually fails to outweigh the increase in illusions and whispers, making the game progressively more challenging and difficult.

Regarding the level limit, even in the original game world, no one had ever successfully broken through Level 40, where the illusion monsters are exceedingly formidable. If players remained in the Main Plane, they would soon be beaten half to death, their sanity impaired, and then forced to spend money to restore sanity... Thus, everyone could only hide in the three major planes.

Purgatory, Netherworld, Abyss—these three major planes have inherent Wills that can prevent the erosion of universal laws, making illusion monsters relatively easier to deal with here, though naturally, the automatic leveling speed would also slow down. Basically, if players reach Level 30, they can start preparing to move to the three major planes.

After listening to Aske's explanation, Peggy also fell silent. After a moment, she slowly asked:

"So even if we hide in the three major planes, the leveling speed won't drop to zero, right? Does that mean death by erosion of the Law is an inevitable destiny that we cannot escape?"

"That's correct," Aske nodded, "But even if you don't become a demigod, you would still die of natural causes one day."

"Being a demigod extends your lifespan far longer than not being one. Just from Level 20 to Level 30, if you avoid using Law Skills as much as possible, the natural increase in lifespan is about a few thousand years. Without becoming a demigod, natural lifespans are just too short."

"Of course, every use of Law Skills advances the erosion a bit. In our mercenary lifestyle, with frequent battles, the time would probably shorten to about a thousand years."

"Then let's go into hiding!" Peggy blurted out immediately, looking hopefully at Aske, "To a place far from war, where no one knows our identities!"

"There's no need for that." Aske said with a smile as he ruffled her hair, causing her to feel somewhat melancholy again.
