Chapter 243 - Amazing New Upgrades
-----
Noah felt the overflowing power of everyone he was connected with sharing their power with him, desiring their Progenitor to raise even higher in power!
He took upon this power and made it his own, as he felt the two little yet powerful souls of his children within Iris' womb sharing their power with their father, despite never having met him, they felt an instinctual desire to help him!
Noah sensed that such little souls carried great talent within them and that they had already developed tiny blood cores that resonated with his presence and the connection he had with them!
Noah felt happy to receive such help, as he absorbed it all and assimilated it, his entire body pulsated, dissolved, and reformed, his entire being exuding an air of pure overpowered domination!
He infused this strength into his cage, easily shattering the entire crystal cocoon that entrapped him within the evolution chambers where he had become someone anew!
Crack... crack!
CRASH!
The Blood Progenitor's Phantom watched Noah emerge, his body had matured some more, and he seemed taller and a bit more muscular, he no longer looked like he was 18, but more like a man around his mid-twenties.
His eyes were sharp and filled with domineering power, and his hair had grown incredibly long and silvery-white, reaching his hips.
His slim yet beautiful toned body walked over the crystal, unhinged by their sharpness which didn't even leave a scratch on his incredibly hard skin.
His pale white body shined with smoothness, all the scars he had were gone as well.
Noah glanced at his changes as he smiled maliciously, he noticed that his body felt rather taller.
At the same time, the Blood Progenitor felt an immense rush of power and information. As he was somewhat of a System Administrator now for Noah, he received all kinds of new abilities, which the System had unlocked and acquired.
Noah smiled as he glanced at the several System Windows.
Ding!
[You have evolved into a [Level VIII: Progenitor Vampire King]!]

[You can now gain Lifeblood Points by not only absorbing Ability Cores, but also by absorbing Cores comparable to your strength, alongside souls, body parts and blood comparable or near your strength, and other types of essences]
"Hoh? So that's a thing now…" said Noah as he rubbed his chin, his face has become even more handsome than before, exuding an aura of vampiric charm.
He decided to quickly check his status afterward.
…
[Noah Luna Noctem]
[Class(es)]: [Warlock (II)]
[Patron(s)]: [Bloodshot Eye]
[Existence Rank: [SSS-Rank: 2/3]

[Vitality]: [13000]
[Mind]: [13000]
[Force]: [13000]
[Lifeblood Points]: [0]
…
What greeted Noah was a newer look to the Status Panel, it seems that the system functions mentioned earlier had all taken effect.
Now there were Existence Ranks and System Ranks showed up, and it even showed that he required one million Lifeblood Points to Rank Up his System Rank Realm!
However, as the System Ranked up, it seemed that it would acquire new System Functions.
Additionally… there was something new as well.
Existence Ranks!
Noah decided to inspect what Existence Ranks truly was through the System Analyze Function, which had let him see the description of Skills.
[Existence Ranks]
The Ranks encompass your total level of power combining all kinds of essences, energies, body tempering techniques, or enhancements into your soul.
The Existence Ranks are as follows…
[F-Rank: Almost an Average Mortal who had recently awakened some Mana]
[E-Rank: Someone who has become quite good in the use of Mana, and can do at least a few spells or use Skills]
[D-Rank: An individual that has managed to sharpen its skills, mana, and more. Can be considered to be "strong" to an extent]
[C-Rank: Those that surpass someone above the average and begin to step into the superhuman level]
[B-Rank: A superhuman with great capabilities, powerful magic, and more, it can be qualified as a threat]
[A-Rank: A superhuman developing his super abilities to even greater heights while comprehending the depth within everything]
[S-Rank: The first step to reaching the pinnacle of the mortal hood, strong enough to fight against giant beings and possessing great amounts of mana]
[SS-Rank: The second step to reach the pinnacle of the mortal hood, stronger than S-Rank, capable of doing many super extraordinary things]
[SSS-Rank: The third step to reach the pinnacle of the mortal hood, you are midway through it, and some power above a normal mortal has begun to leak within your body, you must develop this supernatural essence to surpass your limits and reach the fourth step…]
[After reaching the pinnacle of SSS-Rank 3/3, you will be revealed the next Realms you must step on…]
As if it wasn't obvious already, the Existence Ranks were fairly similar to the Hunter Ranks!
If not the same!
It seems that this information was acquired from all the data the System had gathered, mortal hood Ranks were qualified by letters up to SSS-Rank, and each Rank was in fact divided into three stages, but Noah had advanced so fast that he never felt any stage in between the Ranks.
However, after thinking about it for a while, this was perhaps the reason why there was often a bit of difference in power in between the same Rank Hunters…
After evolving, Noah had become a Progenitor Vampire King and his Blood Soul Core was Level 8, which seemed to also relate to his Existence Rank, he was but a few steps from reaching the pseudo-demi-deity stage!
And due to his Stats, it was as clear as water that he had become an SSS-Rank Hunter through his amazing evolution.
Noah smiled deviously, as he felt like all the hardships and effort he had put in since he became a Vampire were finally rewarding him the most!
With a single evolution, he was already at the pinnacle of the world!
