Henrick didn't expect that the baby fire monkey would take the red-coloured fruit and completely forget about it.

"Don't think much. It knows that we don't harm you...Haha,"

Looking at Henrick's pity state both the sect leader Gamos and his uncle consoled him; however, they could not withhold their laughter for much time and started laughing without any restrain.

'...'

"Master, you totally forgot the reason you came here today,"

Henrick was speechless at the two powerful cultivators in front of him and became speechless for a moment before reminding the sect leader Gamos about the temporary sealing of his bloodline.

"Huh? That's right! Let's start the process,"

With Henrick's reminder, both the powerful cultivators stopped laughing and became serious.

"Henrick, go and sit on the stone bed and close your eyes,"

As soon as the sect leader Gamos finished speaking, Shadow overseer Zerg asked Henrick to sit on the stone bed with his eyes closed.

'Nods'

Henrick nodded his head as he followed Zerg's instructions and closed his eyes after sitting on the stone bed.

"Gamos, take out the formation flags and place them around the stone bed," Soon, Zerg ordered Gamos while taking some materials out of his storage ring.

"Yes, uncle,"

Just like Henrick, the sect leader Gamos also didn't know much about what his uncle was doing; however, he was sure that his uncle wouldn't go around circles to get Henrick's bloodline. So, he blindly followed his uncle's instructions.

"Little one, go and play somewhere else,"

While placing the formation flags around the stone bed, the sect leader Gamos asked the baby fire monkey to go somewhere else.

'Master, is it okay to leave you with them?'

However, the baby fire monkey looked at Henrick with a worried look on its face before asking in its immature little boy's voice through the contract.

After forming a contract with a beast, a cultivator could speak through their contract; however, there would be no clear understanding unless the beast could speak or the cultivators knew the beast language.

Since Henrick knew the beast language and the baby fire monkey knows the human language (only a little), their voice transmission was fluent. 

'Huh? Why are you worried about me? You are so happy with the fruit and totally forgot about me, right?' Henrick replied through the same voice transmission with some displeasure in his tone.

'Master, he is your master and….,'

'Enough, I know about you. Go away from the stone bed now and watch it from outside the circle,'

Before the baby fire monkey could finish its voice transmission, Henrick interrupted it and asked it to go away.

'Nods'

The baby fire monkey jumped from the stone bed and stood beside the old man Zerg and watched Henrick.

"You are worried about your master? No need, it will be over in a few minutes, then you can go out of this cultivation abode,"

Looking at the worried look on the baby fire monkey's face, the old man Zerg patted its small head before going back to his formation creation along with the sect leader Gamos.

That's right! Both the sect leader Gamos and the old man Zerg were using a formation to seal the ancient fire demon's bloodline in Henrick's body.

'Nods'

The baby fire monkey nodded its head as it continued to watch Henrick.

"You might feel some pain. No matter how much pain you feel you have to endure it. Do you understand?"

While placing the formation flags around the stone bed, the sect leader Gamos advised him about the pain.

"Yes master"

Henrick nodded his head as he replied to his master.

Soon, the sect leader placed all the formation flags around the stone bed and the old man Zerg crushed some crystal while making some mysterious sighs with his fingers.

'Colossal Crux of Thorns, activate'

Without wasting any more time, the old man Zerg activated the formation.

'Swoosh'

As soon as he activated the formation, many transparent green coloured thorns appeared out of thin air and surrounded Henrick before wrapping themselves around his entire body.

'Aargh'

Henrick, who had endured a great amount of deal with the daily missions could not endure the pain that was coming from the huge thorns and let out a pained groan through his mouth.

However, as soon as he felt some pain, his passive human race skill 'Endurance' had been triggered and he no longer felt any pain.

Nevertheless, he showed some pained expressions on his face from time to time in order not to make his master and the old man Zerg suspicious about him.

'Uncle Zerg'

For some reason, the sect leader Gamos felt a little worried when he saw how Henrick's body was entirely wrapped by the huge thorns along with the pained expressions on Henrick's face.

So, he slowly called his uncle.

However, there was no reply from his uncle as he was busy making hand signs to maintain the formation in active use.

'Is he trying to get Henrick's bloodline?'

When he didn't get any reply from his uncle, the sect leader Gamos felt a little suspicious about Zerg as he raised his brows.

...

In the beast mountain,

"Fools, what happened? Did you find that baby fire monkey?"

The old man with a long white beard asked the two middle-aged cultivators about a baby fire monkey.

"Old master, we didn't find it yet,"

One of the middle-aged cultivators mustered their courage and came forward to give a reply.

"Fool, you two are fools,"

'Punch'

'Kacha'

'Thud'

After hearing the middle-aged cultivator's reply, the old man was angered to the point where he punched in the air; however, just from the impact of that punch, a tree in the distance fell down to the ground.

"What did you do for the past 10 days then?"

However, he suppressed his anger and asked with a serious look on his face.

"Old master, th..that..."

"We found something about the baby fire monkey in the working disciple's courtyard,"

Before one of the middle-aged cultivators could say, the other middle-aged cultivator replied to the old man's question.
