To achieve his goal, Levi could currently think of two methods.
The first, needless to say, was to directly utilize the power of the Hōgyoku.
However, that thing was currently on cooldown. Even if it became usable by tomorrow night, the amount of Law Crystals required would likely not be small.
The second was to rely on himself: extract the 'God-killing Power' from the Pitch-black Magic Stone, store it within his body using a technique similar to the 'Yin Seal' from the Naruto world, and finally, through the daily accumulation, circulation, and reverse corruption of magic power, achieve the metamorphosis from 'Two-phase Divine Power' to 'Three-phase Divine Power'.
The advantage of this method was that it wasn't difficult, and the side effects were almost zero. However, conversely, wanting to see it through would require spending a large amount of time.
Levi had no inexplicable pride that would compel him to take the long road when a shortcut was available.
After pondering for just a moment, he decided to combine the two methods.
With a slight shift of his thoughts, two drops of Lv.9 'Starlight Divine Water' fell from the sky and, under Levi's control, hovered before him.
In the next second, the Forging Fire from the Arcanum of Forging rose up, scorching and roasting the Divine Water while slowly fusing the two together.
The rank of the Starlight Divine Water was very high; after all, it was a product of a 'Divine Domain' on the same level as an Arcanum.
However, after severing its connection with the Starry Paradise, it had become like rootless duckweed.
In just over twenty minutes, the two drops of Starlight Divine Water, which originally shimmered with iridescent light, vanished. Replacing them was a single liquid bead that revealed no divine wonder whatsoever, looking much like clear spring water, which appeared before Levi.
Inside the Consciousness Divine Domain, the young man with short pale-gold hair raised both hands.
His left hand supported the Pitch-black Magic Stone, while his right hand rapidly drew several runes.
With the help of the 'Arcanum of Reason (Fragment)' and 'Primordial Runes', in just the time it took for two or three breaths, an Alchemy Array was quietly formed.
The eyes of the array on the left and right sides corresponded exactly to the liquid bead obtained earlier and the Pitch-black Magic Stone.
In the next instant, accompanied by the influx of magic power, the Alchemy Array was successfully activated.
The volume of the liquid bead on the left began to slowly shrink.
Occurring almost simultaneously, wisps of black mist overflowed from the surface of the Pitch-black Magic Stone on the right, integrating bit by bit into the liquid bead on the left.
[God-killing Majesty · 7-Star: A product washed and transformed by Lv.10 'Starlight Divine Water' and infused with a wisp of 'God-killing Power'. Upon consumption, one can obtain a wisp of pure 'God-killing Power' that contains no external will.]
Levi was not greedy. After seeing the introductory information of the liquid bead change, he immediately stopped the energy supply to the array.
Then, opening his mouth, he swallowed the 'God-killing Majesty' with a gulp.
The liquid bead, which seemed to have black mist circulating within it, melted upon entering his body, subsequently releasing the God-killing Power within.
However, it was completely wrapped up by Levi, who had prepared for this with his magic power.
The status of his magic power was inferior to the God-killing Power, but the latter consisted of only a single wisp.
To put it without exaggeration, if Levi was willing, he could even manipulate his massive ocean of magic power to forcibly devour this wisp of God-killing Power.
But in the end, he chose not to do so—the reason was actually quite simple; Levi could distinguish between being full for every meal and being full for just one meal. He merely used the flow of magic power to slowly transport the God-killing Power to a position three inches below his navel.
He then improvised a magic circuit with an effect similar to the 'Four Symbols Seal' from the Naruto world, sealing it therein.
Of course, this wasn't the end.
For the next two hours or so, Levi began to perform deeper optimizations on the magic circuit, adding entry and exit channels for magic power, and inscribing quite a few Primordial Runes and Talismans involving equivalent exchange.
In the Consciousness Divine Domain, when the pale-gold-haired young man opened his eyes once more, the magic column on his Character Status Panel had quietly changed:
(Three-phase Divine Power · Pseudo)
[Two-phase Divine Power · 7-Star -> Three-phase Divine Power (Pseudo) · 7-Star]
[No Chant]

[Sage Art Mana Burst Basic: All Ability Stats Super-Order Increase (+2000)]
[Sage Art Mana Burst: Ten / En / Blade / Shield / Elementalization / Ice Mist Domain...]
[Tip: When possessing Divine Power or Spiritual Light, automatically obtain a status of minimum Demigod, maximum God. Current Status: Demigod (All types of Attack/Defense/Attack Speed/Movement Speed receive Super-Order Increase, Lifespan limit removed)]
[Tip: Consume Divine Power or Spiritual Light to receive Super-Order Increase to all types of Attack/Defense/Attack Speed/Movement Speed]
The original Two-phase Divine Power had changed to Three-phase Divine Power as Levi had expected. However, because the God-killing Power came from the outside rather than being produced by himself, the suffix of the Three-phase Divine Power had an extra word: 'Pseudo'.
At the same time, the effects of 'Three-phase Divine Power (Pseudo)' were almost identical to 'Two-phase Divine Power', except for an additional line: [Temporarily obtain 'God-killing Power' attribute, Current God-killing Power: 0.01/0.01].
That said, Levi, whose status had long since reached Demigod, still sensed the subtle changes in his own magic power.
The latter, which already possessed some characteristics of Divine Power and Spiritual Light, seemed to be quietly condensing something at the conceptual level.
It was just that because the magnitude was too small, it had not yet reached the degree of a qualitative change.
Levi deduced in his heart that if he left it alone and let it develop naturally, it might take over a hundred thousand years to welcome the true metamorphosis of his magic power.
However, to repeat the old saying, he was a man who had activated the 'Pay-to-Win' cheat. With the Hōgyoku in hand that could be used to break limits, he would have to have his head caught in a door to honestly wait where he was.
While Levi was busy working hard for his status advancement at the edge of the continent, the moods of the gods in Orario and those in other nations felt as if they had taken a roller coaster ride.
Although they didn't say it aloud, most of them were actually prepared for the birth of a new Black Dragon and the destruction of the Lower World.
Unexpectedly, in less than ten minutes, the terrifying aura that had originally pressured the world suddenly vanished.
"Oh my, oh my~" Demeter, who was visiting the Hestia Familia residence as a guest, rested her cheek on one hand and sighed with emotion. "Although I heard you mention it before, actually feeling it in person is still breathtaking."
Hestia puffed up her chest upon hearing this, her face full of pride and complacency. "Of course! My Levi is amazing!"
Hephaestus, sitting at the side with her arms crossed, coughed lightly. "Correction: Levi belongs to everyone, not just you alone."
The Blue Ribbon didn't mind her close friend's retort at all. "Heh, without my consent, could you guys get to eat meat?"
Hephaestus, who had already eaten meat: "..."
Demeter, who was preparing to eat meat tomorrow: "..."
"Let's skip this topic; talking about it hurts feelings." Hephaestus looked away. As a beneficiary, she definitely had to play dumb.
Demeter also nodded her head. "That's right. We have a friendship of tens of millions of years, after all. We can't fall out over such a small matter."
Unexpectedly, just as her voice fell, she saw her two friends reveal peculiar expressions.
"'Small' matter, huh~"
"Why do I feel it's not 'small' at all?"
Demeter: "?"
"What are you two saying?"
Seeing her blank face as she asked, Hestia and Hephaestus couldn't help but exchange a glance, and then laughed mischievously.
"You'll know tomorrow."
