Cosmic Peak

Chapter 30 - Luna's Path, Inexplicable Phenomenon.



Luna experienced the same thing as Aren, Quinn, and Lorain and got three options.

[ Deux Shi Maestro ]

[ Primal Avatarist ]

[ Sogek High-Reaper ]

[ Trust your instinct and choose your path. ]

...

Aren saw Luna appearing once again after a second of her disappearance. He let Luna look at her path and adjust things while he started gathering berries.

At this time, Luna stood up and saw several notifications. She also saw a new status window about her path. She first added the talent point into the single blinking bubble.

Right after that, she saw several notifications once again.

[ Your soul has transformed due to the initiation of your path. Your soul has been unshackled. Deux Shi Orb has been conjured and merged with your soul. ]

[ Your strength, constitution, agility, and soul attributes increased by 2 points. ]

[ Beginner Skill unlocked: Death Spirit Invocation, Shi Transmutation. ]

[ You have started walking on the path of Deux Shi Maestro. This path is a path of death, spirit, ghost, and such things. But what lies at the end of this path is a mystery. To find out that, walk on this path fearlessly and boldly, for you can not overcome death otherwise. ]

Luna received knowledge regarding the beginner skills and how to use them by using the power of Deux Shi Orb that is merged with her soul.

Luna distributed her stat points and then looked at her status.

[ As your path has a weak startling line, You will be given a random high-grade spirit. Check your inventory. ]

Luna saw the last line of notification and was surprised as she thought, \' This path...feels creepy, but how strange that I feel comfortable with it. \'

She then took out a glowing black egg that was 1 meter tall with skull imprints on it from her inventory.

Aren suddenly felt chilly and looked at Luna, only receive a shock, "What is that...creepy thing?"

Luna chuckled and said, "It\'s supposed to be a death spirit. It seems that I need to give it some of my Deux particles to hatch it."

With a curious gaze, Luna put her hand on the creepy egg and infused the Deux particles inside the egg.

But just as she infused a bit of her Deux particles inside the egg, the egg moved and vibrated as cracks appeared all over its surface.

Aren also looked at it with a curious expression as the egg slowly cracked.

*crackk....*

After two seconds, Luna and Aren saw a hand breaking out of the cage before the egg started to melt into black energy.

"Wh-what!" Aren and Luna both were startled to see the spirit and immediately recognized it as one of the mythical creatures of folk tales.

Tengu.

The head of a beaked man with crow-like wings behind his back and sharp, deadly talons.

As Aren\'s gaze landed on it, He also received its status information.

[ Undead Tengu ]

-Grade: High Undead.

-Growth: 1st phase.

-Health: [2000/2000]

-Defense: Physical [600/600], Soul [800/800]

-Attack: Physical [700], Soul [700]

-Skills: <Death Claws>, <Shrill Cry>

"What the...this tengu quite powerful," Aren spoke with a surprised expression after seeing its status.

Hearing him, Luna was startled, "You can also see its status?"

Aren wryly smiled and nodded, "Well, I couldn\'t before, but now I can because of my eyes. Didn\'t I tell you that my eyes are enhanced in more than one way? Well, one of the benefits is that I can see the status of things more clearly and can also see the status of creatures and other people."

"Ohh...That\'s certainly very useful." Luna nodded before she looked at Tengu, "Hello. can you speak?"

Tengu\'s eyes were closed all the time, and hearing Luna\'s voice, he opened his eyes and looked at Luna before bowing, "Yes, master. I can speak."

"Cool...Hehehe. Then let\'s go and find more of such places." Luna spoke before she looked at Aren.

But Aren shook his head and said, "Nope. We are done searching for things. Now it\'s time to progress. It\'s enough if each of our team can find two spirit stones and two fields of red berries each.

These things are indeed mystical and valuable, but their value is limited and correlating to our strength. As we get more powerful, the effect of those things will wear down, and...we should get out from this newbie area now that we have chosen our paths. "

Luna realized something and said, "Are you talking about the small army of knights with a carriage that I saw?"

Aren grinned and nodded, "Yep. We are in a small pond right now. But it\'s time that we leave this pond and see the world. We will explore and move far away to search a bigger town, city, or something like that of a sort but before that-"

Aren paused there as he sat down crossed-legged, "-It\'s time that we finish our task of forming spirit core. This cave is a safe place now that there are no creatures here."

Luna nodded as she also sat down crossed-legged and started forming the spirit core according to their knowledge after they reached level 10.

[ A/N: There was a mistake in chapter 22 (which I have already fixed) where I mentioned a quest about forming the spirit core. But it was not a quest but a simple task. That\'s why they could leave the wild expanse. A quest is something where you finish a mission and get a reward for it, but the thing about spirit core was just telling them to form a spirit core and nothing else. ]

...

While Aren, Luna, and other millions of people were adventuring in the Wild Expanse, something terrifying was happening on Earth.

Because suddenly, patches of dark clouds appeared in several places on Earth and occupied several gound areas.

The government described them as clouds, but they were actually gaseous dark energy covering several areas in various places on Earth.

People who were at those spots hurriedly left, and the government started investigating those places.

But soon....they would know that something terrifying was brewing inside those areas filled with dark energy patches.
