Before Gu Jing's eyes, a demonic ascension ritual unfolded and completed rapidly.
From what he had learned in the past, the ascension ritual was a dangerous process. Receiving the blessing of an Evil God seemed easy—just fall into depravity—but the actual cost was immense, and the vast majority who received the blessing couldn't withstand it. Even those Chaos Champions who had advanced far along the path of pleasing an Evil God had a pathetically low success rate, with maybe one in a million becoming a Demon Prince.
Those qualified to receive such grace were already exceedingly rare and needed to earn enough merits to please the deities. Even so, failure remained the norm, and the result of failure was pitiful—becoming a mindless Chaos Spawn. Perhaps those fanatical Evil God worshippers might even consider this a good outcome.
However, looking at Galaraldo's ascension—it felt effortless.
