Chapter 106: Monkey King Roar

When he first learned about his bloodline, Henrick asked the system to help him hide it from others; however, the system's reply was,

'Ding,

Master, your bloodline is 100 percent purified and at the system's current level, it is impossible to seal, suppress or hide it from others.

As for why he asked the same question to the system now because he had some hope that the system could do something with the baby fire monkey's bloodline.

'Since Spark's 'Celestial monkey king' bloodline is only 10 percent purified, you have to help me with this matter, system,'

Henrick asked the system in his mind as he looked at the baby fire monkey in the distance.

'Ding,

At my current level, as long as the baby fire monkey doesn't use any of its bloodline effects and skills in front of any powerful cultivator, I can hide its cultivation and bloodline.

As soon as he saw the system's reply, Henrick unconsciously started smiling as he stood up from the stone bed and stretched his back.

"System, there are no benefits under the bloodline in the halographic screen,"

All of a sudden, he remembered that there were no effects mentioned on the holographic screen. So, he asked the system about that.

'Ding,

Bloodline Name:- Celestial monkey king (10 % purified)

Effects:- 1) Increased endurance.

2) Attack power and defence power is increased by 10 %. 

Note:- The user has full control over these effects of the bloodline regarding when to use and when to not use.

"Only 10 percent? Maybe it will increase the purification of the bloodline,"

Although the 10 percent increase in the battle prowess seemed little for Henrick, he didn't bother much regarding it as he knew that it would definitely increase with the purification of the bloodline.

"Anyway, what are you going to do with Spark to hide its bloodline and the cultivation?"

After knowing the benefits of the baby fire monkey's bloodline, Henrick came back to the earlier topic and asked the system about it.

'Ding,

I have already done it and it is just a simple trick, master. There is no need to worry about it. As long as Spark remembers that condition, no one will know about its cultivation and bloodline.

'That's simple,'

When he read the system notification, Henrick was surprised as he didn't expect it to be very simple.

"Anyway, that's a relief. Now, let's check its new skill,"

Finally, Henrick heaved a sigh of relief as he concentrated on other things from the halographic screen in front of him.

Along with the bloodline purification, there was a new skill in the special skills section. So, Henrick focused on it.

'Ding,

Skill name:- Monkey king roar

Effect:- Rank 2 and below beasts, Muscle strengthening realm and below cultivators' all battle prowess will be decreased by 50 percent and as for others, they will receive 20 percent and lower decrease in their battle prowess depending on their strength.

"Nice skill,"

With a glance, Henriick could say that the skill was a very good one as it would be helpful in group battles where the baby fire monkey could decrease the overall strength of a group of enemies making the battle easier.

"Spark, don't play till late at night! Tomorrow, we are going out on a mission. So, sleep early,"

Looking at the baby fire monkey, which was playing in the hot water, Henrick informed it about his plans for tomorrow.

'Eek eek'

The baby fire monkey nodded it's head in understanding and came out of the hot pool.

Soon, Henrick and the baby fire monkey went to sleep.

...

In the beast mountain,

"Idiots, come out from your cultivation abode now,"

The old man, owner of the beast mountain returned from the working disciples' courtyard and shouted in a loud tone while looking at the two cultivation abodes in the distance.

'Master'

'Master'

Within no time, two silhouettes could be seen running towards the old man with an incredible speed along with a face full of anxiousness.

"Sorry, you both great masters must be resting. Should I come and sing a lullaby for you?"

When the two middle-aged cultivators stopped in front of the old man, he scoffed at him and replied in a low yet deep voice making both the middle-aged cultivators shake with fear.

"No no no, master. We are just thinking of how to find the baby fire monkey,"

"Yes, master,"

Both of them hurriedly replied while nodding their heads.

"Really? What did you find?"

The old man was not in a good mood these days because of the missing baby fire monkey which he needed very much.

As for why he needs the baby fire monkey; only he knows.

"..."

When they heard their master's question, both of them became speechless as they didn't know what to answer.

"Hmph" 

Seeing the looks on their faces, the old man harrumphed at them and continued, "Anyway, it's time to bring the baby fire monkey back here."

"Huh? How, master?"

"The baby fire monkey will definitely not come back here,"

Both the middle-aged cultivator asked the old man because, in their opinion, it was almost impossible for the baby fire monkey to return.

"Hahaha...every once in a month, it has to enter the beast mountain; otherwise, it will die regardless of how gifted it is,"

The old man laughed as he replied to his disciples and continued, "It's been almost 28 days since it escaped from the beast mountain. So, in a couple of days, it has to come to the beast mountain." 

'If you know that the baby fire monkey comes back to the beast mountain in a month, then why did you made us search for all these days,'

This was the only thought in their minds when they heard the old man's words; however, they didn't have the courage to directly ask the old man.

"So, be attentive for the next couple of days and don't be lazy. Go now," The old man finished his words and left from that place leaving behind the two middle-aged cultivators.
