Chapter 43: Spark

'Ding,

Congratulations to the master for gaining the skill '10000 Beast language'

Henrick only closed his eyes for a few moments before he received the system notification about the skill.

"Phew...finally, I can now understand the little one without much difficulty," Henrick opened his eyes as he heaved a sigh of relief before looking at the baby fire monkey, which was looking at him in confusion.

'Eek eek'

When the baby fire monkey saw Henrick open his eyes, it made a few noises as though it was asking something to Hendrick.

"No no..nothing happened to me," Henrick understood what it was without those shouts as clearly as he understood human speech.

'...'

The baby fire monkey became even more confused as it felt that Henrick was able to understand it without any difficulty.

"Don't be confused, little one. I can now understand your words from now on...Haha," Henrick laughingly said to the baby fire monkey.

'Eek eek'

"Yes. Really, I can understand your words from now on," Henrick patted the baby fire monkey's small head and continued, "I guess, I should give a name for you. Don't you think?"

From the beginning, Henrick had called it the little one and he could see that the baby-fire monkey was not that small anymore and increased a few centimetres in height after absorbing the ancient fire surge for two times.

So, he decided to give a name to it.

'Eek eek'

As soon as it heard Henrick's words, the baby fire monkey became excited and jumped up and down.

"Since you are a fire type beast and your fur shines in the sunlight, I will call you Spark. What do you think?"

Unlike most of the fire monkeys, the baby fire monkey in Henrick's hands, had very shining fur. So, he decided to name something like that.

'Eek'

'Eek eek'

The baby fire monkey pondered for a moment after hearing Henrick's words and then nodded its head with excitement.

"You liked it. Good," Henrick nodded his head in satisfaction and continued, "Go and play aside. I will cultivate now."

He soon sent away the baby fire monkey, which was now known as 'Spark', to play aside while he focused on cultivating.

He already planned to increase his internal fire energy for today and start removing the impurities from his hands and legs tomorrow.

With that thought in his mind, he closed his eyes and started circulating the 'Blazing sun sutra' to convert the fire elements around his body into the internal fire energy and then made it purer by rotating the internal fire energy in his dantian.

The fire elements swarmed into his body like a hurricane; however, Henrick only absorbed 10 percent of the fire elements into his body that was attached to his body as he knew that was the ideal percentage of the fire elements, the internal body could absorb at the moment.

Just like before, he followed the same pattern of moving the fire elements through his veins to the mental sea and then finally into his dantian.

It took him exactly one hour for a single circulation of the 'Blazing sun sutra' and without taking any rest he continued to repeat the same process.

....

"Damn it. This is where I supposed to find the solution for Henrick's problem,"

While Henrick was peacefully cultivating inside his cultivation abode, the sect leader of the outer sect or Henrick's master looked for something in a row of bookshelf.

He looked very angry as he continued to search for a specific book.

'Where is it? Where is it?'

'Here it is...finally found it,'

After searching for more than a couple of hours, he took out a book that was in a half-tattered state and carefully took it out from the bookshelf.

Sect leader Gamos carefully looked at the old book in his hands and muttered, 'I am 100 percent sure that there will be a solution for hiding Henrick's skill that is unconsciously released by him when he is emotionally unstable.'

Whenever Henrick became emotional, either it was happy or sad, anger or excitement, his eyes turned into a bright red colour. If any of those old greedy cultivators catch sight of Henrick in that state, then he would be exposed and would be hunted down by them.

So, the sect leader Gamons wanted to find the solution for it before that could happen. That's the reason he ordered Henrick not to come out of his cultivation abode.

'Since he has the ancient fire demon bloodline, along with the fire elements in the higher-cultivation abode in the outer sect, he will definitely reach the muscle strengthening realm in less than 10 days. So I better hurry up and find a way from this old book,' Sect leader Gamos silently thought in his head.

"Sect leader Gamos, what are you doing here? Are you looking for something?" Just as he was in his thoughts, the sect leader Gamos heard a familiar voice from the corner of the bookshelf and hurriedly slid that old tattered book into his robe and hid it.

"Nothing old man. Just searching for something. I think it's not here,"

The person was an old man that had deep eyes and a thin body. There seemed to be no flesh between his skin and bones.

He looked just like a walking skeleton with an eerie aura around him.

However, for some reason, the sect leader Gamos lied to the old man without any hesitation before walking past him.

"Oh...is it my eyes playing on me or you really hid a book in your robes," Just when the sect leader was about to leave the library, he heard the old man scoffed at him and indirectly asked him what he was carrying in his robes.

'Damn it...I should have been more careful from the beginning,' The sect leader Gamos raised his eyes as he thought in his head and looked at the old man before saying, "Do you really want to know?"

After saying that, he looked straight into the eyes of that old man with deep eye sockets.
