I looked at the upgraded effects of my new Path Jewel, it was now more than perfected… Checking each Ability gave me a greater insight in what they could do and more, so I quickly began to read them slowly, completely unaware that something behind me had begun to emerge.

[Cursed Claws of Demise] [Path Jewel Grade: Rank 5 (Supreme God-Rank)(3/3)]

A Path Jewel encompassing the powerful Essence of Demise, a powerful ability created by the creator, Kireina Chaos Dark Moon through the combination of effect such as Devour, Dao Fragment of Emptiness, the Dao Fragment of Nothingness, and the power of the Grand Cosmic Dao of Demise, Cosmic Dao of Calamity, and Dao of Destruction.

All of this power is now encompassed in the ability of Cursed Claws, a powerful ability that lets the user generate a massive claw made of pure deathly dark power, which can contain a variety of effects.

Abilities:

[Cursed Claw of Demise](Upgrade!): Gathers large quantities of Essence of Demise and the power of the Divinity of Primordial Chaos and Endless Demise to summon a massive claw whose size the user can adjust at will the more essence is used. This powerful Claw can deal great amounts of both physical and magical damage to a target calculating both Ki and Aether Stats by +10000% -> +40000% for damage.

These Claws are capable of ignoring 50% -> 65% of all defenses in a target the more power they utilize, can devour a target's elements, and slowly tear apart their powers and defensive abilities, and through the Essence of Demise, infect targets with an all-consuming withering power.

This was the first Ability and the one that was supported by all others that came afterwards. This Ability allowed me to summon the power Cursed Claws in a completely new and renewed level and form like never seen before. Through this Ability, their power is amazingly enhanced, and their damage is calculated with both offensive stats of ki and aether.

To boot, these claws have the law-defying power of ignoring 65% of a target's defenses, be it both magical and physical, and anything they damage can be consumed and infected by the Essence of Demise, which is now part of its power.

….

[All Consuming Demise](Upgrade!): Enhances the user's ability to devour anything with the power of the Essence of Demise by +10000% -> +40000%, while the Essence of Demise can now expand greatly and spread across the user's Supreme Domain.

…

A simple Skill that merely allows me to control and summon the Essence of Demise with just a command… before that, I had to set up a whole divine technique all the time, which was bothersome, but now, just a click and that was all it was needed. The power of this essence is also enhanced, and I can also expand it al around my Supreme Domain.

…

[Explosive Demise](Upgrade!): Order your Cursed Claws to detonate themselves into loud explosions that cause deadly damage and spread Chaos and Demise wherever the explosion reaches, dealing up to +100000% -> +400000% increased damage with each explosion, chained explosions increase the damage by a further +10000% -> +40000% which stacks up to a maximum of +500000% -> +1000000% extra damage.

…

Now this was part of why the claws were so insanely strong… this power allowed them to detonate into deadly explosions, now made even deadlier as they get insane damage bonuses, and even more if they explode through chain reactions…

…

[Negative Status Effects]: Any Cursed Claw possess the ability to inflict [Paralysis], [Poison], [Strong Poison], [Stun], [Confusion], [Madness], [Burn], [Curse], [Inhibit Regeneration], [Rotting Wounds], and more Negative Status Effects, which cannot be resisted by any sort of Immunity, but their effects could be lessened through resistances. Each Status Effect has a chance of appearing of 20% -> 50% , more Status Effects active on a foe increase the damage that Cursed Claws can dealt by +10000% -> +40000% with each one, up to a maximum of +500000% -> +1000000%.

…

This ability is straightforward, and it was also part of the amazingness of my Cursed Claws, letting me spam powerful status effects with them that continuously abused a target, these status effects ignore any immunity, so they could theoretically even affect Supreme Gods…

…

[Elemental Claw](New!): The power to infuse any element the user has mastered its Laws at 100% or above through the power of the Dao Fragment of Transformation, granting special elemental damage that can deal extra damage to those that are weak to certain elements. Up to 5 Elements can be mixed together into a single Cursed Claw, each element will increase the Cursed Claw's power by +30000%.

…

The simple yet wonderful power of infusing elements into the Cursed Claws, each element ends up increasing their damage dealt, and we can stack up to 5 elements in one claw.

…

[Independent Claw](New!): The power of your Cursed Claws transcends common sense, each Claw has an independent will and can move independently incredibly dexterously, even being able to think deeply about many things at once and can coordinate for the best results possible. The coordination of each Claw is increased by +1000% with every Claw summoned.

….

The power to make each claw effectively a clone of myself, including a mind of their own to coordinate greatly together, and do all kinds of stuff that can surprise enemies through unexpected attacks.

…

[Demise Dao Lord](New!): You've persecuted the power of Demise to the point that your power over it transcends common sense. Your knowledge and understanding of this concept of Demise has opened the path towards learning the Grand Cosmic Dao of Demise.

…

And lastly! This one ability that lets me learn the power of the Grand Cosmic Dao of Demise, pretty easy- Eh?

FLASH!

A massive accumulation of Dao Essence suddenly shone brightly atop the Path Jewel, releasing the power of Demise everywhere…

Don't tell me…

This power… could it truly be? Yes, it was! I just read it there.

It really is a new Grand… Cosmic Dao?!

Out of a freaking Path Jewel?!
