Cosmic Peak

"Aren!" Tyrance arrived beside Aren as well, and he also had an excited expression at the appearance of this floating Ghost Demon Ship.

"What's going on? Why is everyone excited?" Aren asked with a confused expression.

"Because we can become stronger and get treasures," Tyrance answered while looking at Aren before his gaze returned to the floating Ghost Demon Ship.

"After a while, ghosts will start to appear from the ship and approach us. When that happens, just stand still and don't do anything," Tyrance spoke, "since we are still mortal lifeform, we will definitely get a chance to enter the treasure hunt, so just wait."

"Treasure hunt?" Aren muttered as he looked at the floating ship.

All people of the time had eager expressions on their faces as they stood still.

After two minutes, the ghost shop started to wreath in white flames before countless one-meter tall white ghosts came out of the ship and descended.

Aren was kind of speechless at this creepy sight, 'If this happened in Eath world before the appearance of Myriad Mountain phenomenon, people would really lose their...'

A few seconds later, Aren saw two ghosts coming towards him and Tyrance, who was standing beside him.

"Stand still and let them touch you," Tyrance whispered to Aren.

Aren's eyes saw their details and were surprised.

[ Entry Ticket Ghost ]

-Special lifeform.

Note: These ghosts can mark people and turn into their tickets for entry into one of the Underworld's phenomenons, Ghost Demon Ship's the Treasure Hunt.

Aren saw a ghost approaching and hovered around him for one round before stretching its ghost hand towards his left hand.

He almost moved his hand mistakenly.

However, he stood still in the end as the ghost's hand touched his left hand before...

*poof...*

The ghost turned into a white smoke before it infused into his arm and turned into a white skull mark.

The same thing happened with Tyrance and many other people in the town.

[You have been selected for the upcoming Treasure Hunt of the Ghost Demon Ship. You will be transported to the Treasure Hunt's zone after one hour.]

"Tyrance, since there will be higher lifeform people in this event, then won't we mortal lifeform have a great disadvantage?" Aren asked with doubt.

"Nope," Tyrance answered with a grin, "once we enter into the zone, we can't use any of our original powers, and everyone's stats will be fixed to be the same. However, we will get to select new skills to be used while we are in the Treasure hunt's zone. In the end, how we build our skillset determines how far we can go in this Treasure Hunt."

After saying that, Tyrance appeared thought as he looked at Aren before asking, "All that aside, the one hour time we got is to make a team of two. Do you see those people? They have started forming their team."

Aren turned his gaze around saw before nodding his head. He saw two people bumping their hands that had skull marks etched on and guessed that it was the process of forming or registering the team.

"So...how about we team up?" Tyrance asked.

"Alright," Aren nodded with a smile as he stretched his hand towards Tyrance.

Tyrance also did the same as they bumped the back of their hands.

[You have formed a team with Tyrance.]

"Good. Now we won't hurt each other when using the temporary skills we acquire in the Treasure Hunt's zone," Tyrance said.

...

Since there was an hour of time before the Treasure Hunt started, Aren decided to sit in meditation and train in his Spinergy Method to increase the rating of his core and get more benefits of the Spinergy Method's effects.

He also decided to consume his soul energy and pour it into Aember Core of Eturnia in his inner space to make progress in it as well.

Since he couldn't do both things together, he took turns to do them. After finishing one cycle of the Spinergy Method, he would slowly consume 100 soul energy and pour it into the Aember Core of Eutrnia to activate its core power to gain more understanding of it, which would increase his mastery of this power.

Soon an hour passed as Aren made little progress in both things. However, since he was in the Underworld and also acquired Demonic Affinity, his training speed in Demon Yakum's Spinergy Method increased tremendously. It practically more than doubled with those two things.

[Spinergy Method: Demon Yakum's Spinergy Method]

-Current stage: 1 (Progress: 12.5%)

<Perks>

-+150 Spirit energy capacity.

-Purple Spectrum: stage 1 (9.7%)

-Hell Blaze: stage 1 (9.7%)

Level 1 Black haze: Decrease all types of defense of enemies by 13.1%.

Level 1 Hell Blaze: Inflict injuries with 13.1% heal reduction debuff.

Looking at the progress, Aren nodded and was satisfied, 'with this much progress in just 30 minutes and 6000 spirit energy; I can see the benefits of Demonic Affinity and the Underworld.'

He then eagerly looked at his Aember core of Eturnia's progress because while he was training in it, he gained an epiphany related to it and created a skill using that epiphany.

Hearing the notification, Aren thought for a moment and decided on a name, 'Bullet Storm.'

"Aren! It's time to go.. Our skull marks are glowing."
