Chapter 15

On a light blue panel, several options awaited selection.

Special Offers, Abilities, Skills, Divine Powers, Enhancements, and Training.

New information surfaced in Hiroshi's mind, introducing the updated shop features. He clicked on the Special Offers section, which remained unchanged—a lone adventurer card sat there. Then, he opened the Abilities section, noting the significant improvement in both quality and quantity of abilities compared to before.

**[Abilities Section]**

- Space System - Domain: 10,000 points

- Space System - Teleportation: 8,000 points

- Spirit Control - Metal: 500 points

- Spirit Control - Wind: 500 points

- Archery Mastery: 200 points

- Swordsmanship Mastery: 300 points

- Basic Magic: 200 points

- Intermediate Magic: 300 points

The Skills section also contained many new skills, but Hiroshi had no plans to exchange points for them. Skills were simply specific applications of abilities, and with his Spirit Control - Metal reaching level 4, Hiroshi realized that as long as he had a deep understanding of an ability, he could easily create his own techniques using the abundant information he had from the modern era. In fact, he had already mastered several skills, which were categorized under abilities and did not show up individually in the Skills section.

Hiroshi's eyes turned to the three new sections. He opened the Divine Powers section, which only had the divine powers of himself and Luo Xiaobai.

**[Divine Powers Section]**

- Divine Sense: 3,000 points (A divine power that may emerge when Intelligence reaches 30 points)

- Shape Shifting: 4,000 points (Originally a fairy transformation ability, optimized to allow selective transformations based on one's acquired exotic bloodlines)

- Hei Xiu: 6,000 points (Optimized to allow for a varying number of clones depending on the level)

After studying Luo Xiaobai's two divine powers with interest for a while, Hiroshi shifted his gaze to the Enhancements section.

The Enhancements section, based on the updated knowledge in his mind, was a place where abilities could be enhanced in different directions, with varying prices depending on the nature of the ability. Meanwhile, the Training section allowed for accelerated training of abilities and skills.

Having reviewed the changes in the shop, Hiroshi took a moment to contemplate. He glanced at his balance of 30,600 points, of which 30,000 were from the group mission reward. The remaining 600 included 250 points from a group member buying Spirit Control - Wind, along with points from daily check-ins and prior savings.

Uploading his abilities to the shop came with two benefits. Firstly, abilities would be optimized for universal use across all worlds, and secondly, whenever someone purchased his abilities, Hiroshi would receive half of the points.

Hiroshi opened the Abilities section and looked at the Space System - Domain ability with a glimmer in his eyes. If his prediction was correct, this ability would become the foundation for his growth, paving a smooth path on his extraordinary journey.

He clicked to exchange for it, and his points dropped by 10,000.

Inside his body, faint ripples spread through his spirit space, causing it to resemble a water surface with visible waves rippling under an unseen breeze. On the sofa, white light flashed in Hiroshi's eyes as he sensed the increasingly intense fluctuation of his spiritual energy. He reached out, clicked the Training option, and disappeared instantly.

Outside Mondstadt, venti, who was walking toward Windrise, paused to listen to the news carried by the wind from Hiroshi's direction. After a moment, he opened his eyes and smiled. "It seems the wind has changed once again," venti said while plucking a few strings on his lyre before continuing on his way. Back in Mondstadt, Lumine, with Paimon at her side, followed venti's footsteps toward the large tree in Windrise.

On a mountain peak shrouded in mist, a gentle breeze blew through the grass and trees. The golden light of dawn had just emerged at the horizon, and at this moment, all living things awoke, filling the world with vitality.

Hiroshi appeared on the mountaintop, gazing at the drifting clouds and mist before closing his eyes and sitting cross-legged. A small black orb emerged from his body, engulfing the rock beneath him and lifting him into the air.

Time flowed slowly. To the west, the sky filled with orange clouds, and as the sun descended, the moon quietly rose.

The black orb, now expanded to ten meters in diameter, vanished just as the sun fully set, revealing Hiroshi sitting cross-legged at its center. He felt the newly gained power inside him and smiled slightly. With a thought, he opened the status panel.

**[Status]**

- Name: Hiroshi

- Level: 9 [18400/400] [Extraordinary]

- Strength: 17

- Constitution: 23

- Agility: 19

**Notes:** After acquiring the Domain ability, the spirit space was enhanced, leading to a slight increase in physical attributes and a significant increase in spirit energy.

**[Abilities]**

- Spirit Control - Metal: Level 4

- Spirit Control - Wind: Level 5

- Space - Domain: Level 1 (Externalize personal spirit space; wherever the Domain reaches becomes your divine territory)

**[Derived Abilities]**

- Mirror Calm: Max (Perception Level +1, Rationality Level +1, Spirit Energy Recovery Rate +1)

**[Divine Powers]**

Seeing the changes in his attributes, Hiroshi clicked on the Enhancements section, wanting to see if his idea had come to fruition.

**[Enhancements Section]**

- **Space - Domain: Choose Enhancement Path**

 1. **Space - Boundary Wall** (50,000 points): Transform the Domain into a protective boundary that envelops the user, providing world-class defense and enabling travel through the Sea of Worlds.

 2. **Space - Devour** (80,000 points): Transform the Domain into a black hole that devours all things, including the world itself, to strengthen the user. Note: Users of this ability may be marked by worlds and become a target of universal aversion.

 3. **Space - World** (150,000 points): Transform the Domain into a world, turning the user into the world itself. Note: All personal accumulations will be converted into nutrients for the world's creation. The world's size is linked to one's accumulation and exists independently within the Sea of Worlds.

Standing on the mountaintop under the moonlight, Hiroshi's laughter echoed joyfully.

Although he did not have enough points yet, Hiroshi felt clarity about his future path. What lay ahead was simply the process of accumulating power. One day, he would fulfill his goal and gain the power to realize his dreams.

Opening the status panel again, Hiroshi saw a large pool of experience lying dormant.

He resumed his meditation. His Divine Sense expanded, gathering the dense spiritual energy from all directions, forming a huge storm of energy.

This location was precisely within the Training Section, an environment Hiroshi had carefully chosen. With a daily cost of 100 points, this intense concentration of spiritual energy made the expense worthwhile, ensuring Hiroshi had ample power for his rapid transformation. The clear rules and abundant energy helped Hiroshi's understanding and mastery of his abilities to progress smoothly.

In moments, all of the accumulated experience from the pool was exhausted as Hiroshi swiftly leveled up.

The intense concentration of energy around Hiroshi turned into a storm. At its center, Hiroshi floated serenely amidst the white light, as drops of water fell around him, while a black Domain emerged, enveloping Hiroshi, seemingly merging with the world itself.
