Here's my theory. There's more to my theory, I just don't know how to explain it well enough.
The titanite slabs are like gateways into the power of the gods. (The titanite demons represent the fall and/or corruption of the gods) There were those who believed that through the acquisition of titanite, they too could gain the power of the gods.(Which is true, titanite contains much more power in it then normal steel or iron.)
