He would have skipped even that to evolve to a special type of demon king if all his other stats were at the half-divine rank. But his evolution had to stop and a request was made to allow the use of divinity to make up for the lacking requirements.
Fortunately, he has a lot of divinity in his possession due to the generosity of the gods of the Zargoth plane. Each item to make a demigod contains 10 points of divinity. A transcendent needs a total of 30 Divinity to become a low god. 90 divinity for a mid god, 180 divinity for a high god, and finally 360 divinity for a grand god. Each point of divinity is very precious but the gods gave Legion 450 items containing 4500 points of divinity. Aeternus was given 2000 points so he is not lacking in divinity.
He clicked yes to allow the consumption of divinity so that he can have his upgrade.

This Evolution is very costly. He has never paid for evolution before. This time he has to pay divinity and he has to pay more than 1000 for it for his evolution. It is costly but highly rewarding. For one, his stats have been unlocked and made to reach the lesser divine rank. It is quite a leap from the high-rank grade to the lesser divine.
The second major difference is the sin abilities that he can get. A normal Evolution should grant him a single more ability which is Accumulation, but since he has already acquired that and other abilities as a high-rank demon he gets to have Unique abilities.
The abilities don't come cheap either. Each one is something that a demon lord will have to save for thousands of years to acquire. Some demon kings can only afford one and at most two if they are filthy rich. So most kings just use their generic abilities as demon kings. The first sin ability, the ESSENCE OF ENVY is the one most kings of envy go for. It is the most essential ability of a demon king of envy.
The ESSENCE OF ENVY is the crown achievement of envy. Demons of envy go from copying abilities, to reflecting them, and to taking them permanently. As they say, if you can't beat them, join them. Demons of envy have a limited capacity for copying abilities, so reflecting abilities become handy. They don't need to copy an ability to use it when they can reflect it. If there's an ability that they can't reflect, then it is worth taking.
Having the ESSENCE OF ENVY will practically shore up any weakness that a demon has. They will be able to take the sin abilities of other demons for themselves. It is an ability that beats the next most important one by a small margin. The sixth ability, the POWER OF CROWNS is the second most important ability for demon kings. It is certain that he will have more crowns and it is certain that he will have a limit to the number of crowns he can safely bear. So it is best that he maximizes the boost from each crown and get the most out of them.
His evolution needed divinity but the sin abilities can be bought with chaos energy so he acquired all the abilities. Then he went on to upgrade all the abilities to the divine grade. His evolution commenced fully when he finished his selections.
