NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1564: Maria's Growth So Far
-----
I may leave some Undead to watch over and communicate through a Shadow Portal, allowing us to return here easily whenever we wish.
Well, I'll keep it for now. Perhaps I can do something with them someday.
Time to check my status, right? It has changed significantly, so I wager there are many new details to explore…
Let's see. It's going to be a big one.

Um, yep! It's massive. And it might grow even larger once I receive the rewards for this Trial, which I sense will arrive soon… I mean, we've been waiting for days, so I hope it's soon!
Upon analyzing the changes, well, a lot has changed… My status has surged dramatically, and it's almost overwhelming.
My stats have increased by at least sevenfold, perhaps even tenfold by now.
For comparison, my highest stat, Magic, was around 28 million before my evolution.
But after that, consuming the Original Nightmare Curse and the Living Nightmare Dimension, my stats skyrocketed, amplified further by the staggering 238 levels I gained.
I also acquired a massive number of levels! Over two hundred from that fight, which is incredible considering my maximum level is five hundred…
Still, I'm far from reaching the max level at this stage, and I doubt anything I fight from now on will provide enough EXP.
Though I wonder what I might become once I hit max level… Just thinking about it sends a shiver down my spine. I'll likely grow even more monstrous, eldritch, and, above all, tentacled.
Interestingly, stats that once increased separately from leveling, like Nether, Spirit, Aether, Divine Power, and Nightmare Power, now grow through leveling… Why? Perhaps due to my status as a "primordial."
Previously, I had to source this energy and power externally to boost my stats, but now, as I level up, my powers and internal energies naturally multiply and expand over time, which makes sense given I've become a walking horror movie creature.
With the tower, I could leave if I desired and venture to… I don't know, outer space? It looked beautiful, but somewhat dull.
This makes me wonder if there are other worlds beyond the tower itself…
Regarding the vast treasures appearing in my Soul Realm, well, they're there… A truly eerie grassland of red eyes and black grass… A portion of the sky transformed into pink cotton clouds, and then there's… the Nightmare Void Sea!
Yes, it's right there! What the hell?
I thought it was gone, but I must have absorbed it when I consumed that dimensional entity that nearly destroyed the planet.
So, it simply transferred into my Divine Soul Realm. That's bizarre, but I think I can find uses for it.
Also, the system messages mentioned using resources from the Divine Soul Realm to enhance my Skills or something? Is that even feasible, though?
My Skills… so they require materials to keep growing? Is this why some skills remain at level 1 despite frequent use? Or perhaps I'm missing something else.
"Hey, System, can you clarify what I need to use these treasures' resources for?"
[…]
[You can now use various resources to evolve existing skills or combine them into new ones.]
[The Skill Forge will accept these resources when you Combine Skills and when you Evolve Skills.]
[It is recommended to upgrade the Skill Forge using your System Points to combine more Skills.]
[Whatever awaits you in the future will be even more perilous. Your strength is immense, but you must surpass it.]
Right, combining skills. I should probably get to that. It's a good point.
With my Skill Forge… Okay, let's upgrade it then.
Let's see, where is it?
