Cosmic Peak

Chapter 161 – Nether Region, Nether City

[A/N: okay so…I fked up. But I already fixed it. The thing is…when Aren broke through to Supreme-lifeform. He also HAD to level up four times…from 26 to reach 30 before breaking up and making his spirit core rating to 10. I have now edited that chapter and fixed it. I also reduced necessary Exp from his stored exp and edited in the chapters as well. He also got 20 stat points from leveling up, which I added in reserve with his current 17 stat points. Aren is now level 31.]

Ten minutes later, Aren, Konish, and Jin left the palace and went together to buy the materials in the city. Aren took an hour purchasing the materials and spent over 25 thousand gold coins.

Afterward, the three of them left the city and continued towards their destination, the Nether Region.

Once they got out of the city and started flying, Konish looked at Aren. "So, Aren, if you don't mind, can you show us your profound flame power?" Konish said as he took out a transparent white stone.

Aren looked at the stone and got its information.

—–

[Profound Scale Stone]

-Rank: Special

-Effect: can check the potential of profound elemental powers.

—–

After reading that, Aren stretched his hand and consumed a bit of fire energy to produce the Outrious Aember Flame.

A wisp of Aember flame sparkling with crimson motes appeared on top of Aren's palm.

"We'll check the potential of your Outrious Aember Flame using this stone," Jin said with a smile.

Aren smiled and nodded, "go ahead, I also want to know." He already got details about his Outrious Aember Flame through his Astral-X eyes, but he still wanted to know what this Profound Scale stone displays.

Konish then moved the Profound Scale stone towards the flame and spoke, "manipulate that wisp of flame and infuse it inside this stone."

Aren did that as he manipulated that tiny wisp of Outrious Aember flame and infused it inside the stone.

The transparent stone turned faintly red right after that, and blazing numbers started to form in the stone.

17

49

74

89

After five seconds, the number finally stopped at 96.

"Damn! That's almost reaching the potential of Low-grade level 4, but it's currently at high-grade level 3," Jin enviously said with a wry smile.

Konish was speechless, "and I thought that I was lucky to have Morphit Star Ice, being one of the best profound elemental power in this generation, reaching Medium-grade level 3."

Jin punched Konish's shoulder and laughed, "unlike Aren, you have yet to make that profound elemental power your own. Stop bragging."

"What do you mean by potential?" Aren asked with curiosity. His Astral-X eyes didn't say anything about potential. It only had core information related to the flame, like its effects.

"Basically, you can easily increase your understanding of Fire element to level 3, achieving a Level 3 fire affinity," Jin said with a grin.

"Oh? level 3 easily?" Aren was startled and excited, "how?"

"Hahaha, don't take him seriously. It's not that easy to achieve level 3 affinity in any element," Konish said with a chuckle and shook his head, "but certainly, your progress in understanding fire element will be faster with a profound elemental power."

"Ahem, It's like this. When you are trying to comprehend fire elements, you should produce your Outrious Aember Flame and diffuse it in the atmosphere. That way, your comprehension speed of the fire element will increase," Jin said with a smile.

"Yep, when you do find a natural spot with a high amount of fire elements or train in the artificial elemental zones in any city, you should do that from now on," Konish said, "you can increase the potential level of your profound elemental power, but you can only do that when your affinity level reaches the same level as the potential level of your elemental power."

"So I need to reach level 3 in fire affinity before trying to increase the potential level of my profound elemental power? Got it," Aren nodded.

…

They continued their journey as time passed, from seconds into minutes and minutes into hours. After fourteen hours, they finally arrived at the Nether region.

They went to the heart of the Nether Region, which was the only city in this region, also called Nether Underworld City. A lot of people, especially young people, flooded the city.

Aren, Jin, and Konish entered a restaurant in this city and ordered some dishes to eat.

"So, there's still one day and thirteen hours before the competition starts. What's the plan?" Jin asked as he ate the grilled fish.

"Of course, I plan to amass as much strength as possible," Aren said with a smile as he took a bite from a food dish with meat on a stick and spicy herbs.

"Wow, this is good," Aren said with sparkling eyes.

Konish nodded as he smiled, "the food here is good."

"Anyway, I need to enter a private training room or something like that to prepare some things to increase my strength," Aren said before he thought of something and spoke, "I have an item bound to my path which can increase my good luck or bad luck. But it's random. You want to try it?"

"Oh?" Konish was started before he laughed, "I also have an ability related to my path that increases my luck. Because of that ability, I managed to get that profound slab of Morphit Star Ice."

Aren was surprised, 'It only increases his luck? Maybe it's not random like my revolver. That slab was a Legendary-rank item. No wonder Konish managed to get it despite his strength.'

…

While Aren, Jin, and Konish were eating in the restaurant, "It looks like Aren is in the city. Hahaha, I was going to look for him, but since he is here, then it's good. Let's go, Alfred, Vini; I'll introduce you to my friend," Tyrance said with a broad smile as he looked at a pulsing token in his hand.

"Let's see if he is as good as you said," Vini said with narrowed eyes. Vini was a charming young girl with sunset-red twin ponytails and a cute round face with blue eyes. She wore a white frock dress with red-colored designs.

"He is nearby," Tyrance said as he checked Aren's location after infusing his spirit energy in the token.
