Night fell, and Cheng Sen returned home from work, shedding his day's fatigue. He freshened up, donning his nightwear, and summoned his armor and Marsus Arrow. With a thought, he teleported into his spirit sea, transforming it into a dense forest teeming with hidden dangers.
Sen summoned his profile, and the familiar words echoed in his mind:

He dismissed the profile, knowing his journey to the second realm sorcery would be a long one. Sen began to walk through the forest, his senses on high alert. A monster lurked nearby, and he summoned his tattoo to fight it. Two versions of Sen emerged from his skin, charging at the creature with a fierce intensity.
As he watched, memories of Sunny's battles in the first realm sorcery flooded his mind – how his friend had risen from weakness to fight like a force of nature. Sen's focus snapped back to the present as the sorcery whispered:
[You have received a weapon: Lightning Sword]
Sen dismissed his tattoo and approached the creature's soul shard. He consumed it, feeling its power dissolve like sugar on his tongue.
[You have received 1/20,000]
Further in the forest, a golden raven surrounded by lightning caught his eye. Sen knew what he had to do. He summoned his power, but hesitated – using it could bring heaven's weight upon him. Instead, he recalled his invisible spirit's interventions and opted for Lightning Skin, a skill that would allow him to replace his legs with thunder, create an afterimage in combat, teleport via lightning, pass through objects, and travel through the void.
Sen hadn't unlocked the skill's full potential, but he channeled thunder into his legs, propelling himself forward. The raven, sensing prey, launched at him. Sen swung his Lightning Sword, but the bird dodged effortlessly. It struck, aiming for his eye. Sen's spirit intervened, striking the raven and momentarily blinding it.
Seizing the chance, Sen summoned his tattoo, which shape-shifted into the raven. The two birds clashed, and a massive explosion erupted. Sen's tattoo was gone. The sorcery whispered, but Sen's mind screamed:
"Have I lost my tattoo?"
