Cosmic Peak

*Burn!*

The entire jungle was on fire!

Aren had used the ability <Demonic Flame: Zarkhel> on his chakram and hammer as he started attacking everything in his sight around him.

Trees were cut, and voracious demonic plants were destroyed indiscriminately as Aren just went on a rampage with them. It was a waste of time to find those voracious demonic plants in this thick jungle and eliminate them one by one. Instead, he would just destroy everything fast since he had the ability to do it.

After clearing the one-kilometer area around him, Aren changed his position and started his rampage again.

The notification of eliminating those plants came one by one.

'Easy,' Aren thought as a faint smile surfaced on his face.

He had whole 25 minutes to kill just 300 Voracious Demonic Plants.

However, he only took fifteen minutes to kill 300 Voracious Demonic Plants with his speed and indiscriminate rampaging.

-----

[60,000 Exp gained.]

[Stage 6 completed.]

[Due to your excellent performance, you can start the last stage right away while still gaining the total clear score of stage 7 to stage 11. However, stage 12, which is the last stage, will have its difficulty increased by 50%.]

[Additionally, the score will also increase by 50%, and better items will also be unlocked in the special shop that you can buy with points when your total score is converted into points.]

[If you want to choose this offer, then enter into the dark red portal. You have one minute to make your decision.]

-----

Aren was surprised and then frowned as he fell into thought while looking at his current status.

'Will it answer if I ask something?' Aren wondered before he decided to try it out.

Looking at the giant bell, he asked, "will I get some resting time to recover my various energies to the full after entering that dark red portal?"

[You will get twenty minutes of preparation time after entering the dark red portal.]

"50% increase in difficulty?... Hmmm," Aren muttered and fell into thought.

'If the last stage is a single boss battle, I should be able to manage it. However, nothing is certain.'

'Should I take the risk for more gains? The temple head didn't tell me anything about this, but who knows if the luck-increasing item I want is in the additional items that I get by choosing this offer instead Hmmm...better items and higher score.'

When only ten seconds were left, Aren's face became determined as he made his decision and flew towards the dark red portal before entering through it.

The scenery changed as Aren arrived in surroundings filled with blood-red sea and floating boulders that were burning in crimson flame.

There was no giant bell in the sky here, but he still heard an old man's voice after arriving here.

[Whether your choice is a foolish one or a rewarding one depends on your ability.]

[You have 20 minutes of resting time.]

[19:59]

Aren had a serious expression on his face as he directly sat down in meditation mid-air.

He didn't mind breaking his hammer again to pass this stage as he had decided not to hold back anything after taking this risk.

After eighteen minutes, Aren recovered all of his energies. He only used spirit energy in the last stage, but he nearly emptied it by constantly using the <Demonic Flame: Zarkhel>, so he had to refill his spirit energy pool by absorbing spirit energy from a common grade spirit stone.

Soon the last two minutes passed as Aren heard the old man's voice again.

[Eliminate the Four Acoplytical Demons...before getting killed by them. The first two demons will be spawned after five seconds while the last two demons will be spawned after five minutes]

Aren floated mid-air as the hammer, chakram, and sword around him. He also consumed 1000 spirit energy and activated the Wolven Sun Barrier.

He also drank an uncommon grade agility boost potion, strength boost potion, and physical defense boost potion.

Five seconds also passed, but Aren didn't see any spawning portals this time.

However, he suddenly looked below as he noticed movement in the blood sea.

*BOOOM....*

One of the biggest burning boulders that floated a hundred meters away from Aren blasted apart before revealing a four-meter tall demon with scythe-like hands burning in crimson flames. This demon also had four pairs of thin crimson wings with ruby eyes and burning horns.

The demon roared at Athan before...

*Swoooooooooosh....*

'Fast!' Aren was shocked as the demon made a flying dash towards him that almost reached his peak speed.

However, thanks to his Astral-X eyes, he barely dodged the sharp scythe-hand slash of this demon. Aren didn't waste time as he manipulated his chakram, hammer, and sword to attack this Swift Scythe Blood Demon.

[Swift Scythe Blood Demon]

-Lifeform: Supreme-5

-Bloodline: Crimson Flame Aerial Demon.

-Health: [50,400/50,400]

-Attack: Phy. [7400], Flame [8500]

-Defense: Phy. [2000], Energy [2340], Soul [500]

-Note: Weak against yin flame, ice, water.

Aren attacked by coating all of his weapon gears into the <Demonic Flame: Zarkhel> because this demonic flame was unique. This dark blue flame would freeze externally but cause burning damage internally, so Aren guessed that this was Yin flame.

But right as Aren's gears chased after the Scythe Demon, a blood water beam shot out from the water directly towards Aren.

Aren was paying attention there since he knew that there was something in the blood sea. So, as soon as he saw a blood water beam shooting with glowing red particles, Aren dodged it.

'First, I have to deal with this Scythe Demon since it can threaten me with its speed,' Aren thought with a solemn expression as he manipulated his gear weapons to keep chasing and attacking the scythe demon.

However, an even faster blood water beam shot out from the water again, directly hitting the Wolven Sun Barrier.

[-8540]

The barrier shattered as Aren was flung upward.

*RUOOOOOOOOOOOOO....*

A rising blood water pillar shot out from the blood sea on which a bloody shark-headed humanoid demon with crab-like hands stood.

This demon points his crab-like hands towards Aren as two blood water beams released from them, attacking Aren again.

However, Aren had started flying at his full speed in a chaotic manner to avoid the beam attacks while his attacks also connected the Scythe Demon and injured it.

[-7380]--Hammer attack.

[-1890]--chakram attack.

[-980]--sword attack.

However, after those attacks connected, the dark blue demonic flames laced on the gears took effect and froze the flesh of Scythe demon before inflicting burning injuries as the demon lost additional 6000 health.

Since Aren had also activated the <Icy Enchant> the demon's speed was lowered a bit as well, which successfully helped him connect another round of attack.

However, Aren had consumed 100 armalist forces to use <Hyper Charge> on the hammer in the second attack and inflicted major damage to the demon. After all, the skill <Hyper Charge> also boosted the effectiveness of the demonic flame along with the hammer's attack.

The Sea Ouki demon was releasing Blood water beams continuously, but none of them hit Aren as he was flying with his full speed and dodging them.

*ROARRRRRRRRRRR...*

The health of Scythe Demon was brought to half, and when that happened, the demon roared as it grew an additional pair of wings that was larger than any other and was wreathed in crimson flame.

Aren's expression turned to utmost seriousness seeing that transformation.
