Chapter 120: Crazy blood refining

'Phew...finally, I can relax now,'

Henrick heaved a sigh of relief as he sat in front of the entrance to the cave and played with the beast core in his hand.

'Why is Spark not interested in this beast core?'

Henrick felt a little confused because, for any low-level beast, a beast core was an irresistible item. So, when he saw how the baby fire monkey didn't even show the slightest interest in the beast core, Henrick felt it was a little weird.

'Maybe for Spark, these things don't interest anymore,'

From the moment Henrick had met the baby fire monkey, he felt it was something special because it was more intelligent than many beasts and moreover, it had awakened a celestial type bloodline.

So, he stopped thinking about it more and waited for the baby fire monkey to finish its blood refining.

"After your baby fire monkey comes out of the cave, we will go our separate ways for our solo missions," 

Compared to earlier, Nick was so much better now as he rested his back against a huge tree and said to Henrick.

"Okay, but are you alright?"

Even though Henrick made fun of Nick for a while, he was not someone that takes extreme pleasures at someone's weakness. Moreover, Nick was very good to him from the beginning.

So, he asked him whether he was alright or not.

"Haha...I am alright," Nick laughed as he replied to Henrick as he continued, "I will take some rest until your fire monkey comes out of the cave."

After finishing his words, Nick closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Henrick didn't disturb him anymore as he knew Nick was very tired after those vomitings.

'So, what side profession should I choose when I reach the 'Energy Condensation realm'?'

Since he had nothing to do now, he started thinking about his future side profession which Nick had explained when they were entering the beast mountain.

'I think that profession is tailor-made for me,' 

He didn't think for much time before he felt one of the professions he knew was the best tailor-made for him.

'However, I should see whether there are any other professions that are suitable for me and worth spending time for,'

At the moment, he had thought of a side profession just like how Nick had chosen 'Alchemy'; however, he didn't want to finalize the profession in such a hurry as he still had much time for that.

As for what profession he thought in his mind, only Henrick knows.

.....

Inside the fire ghoul cave,

'Eek eek'

As Henrick was relaxingly thinking of a side profession for his future, the baby fire monkey was refining the blood from the huge fire ghoul while letting out monkey noises from time to time.

Whether it was because of pain or excitement or both, that was making the baby fire monkey let out those noises.

Currently, the baby fire monkey was closing its eyes while the blood droplets from the huge fire ghoul were slowly entering into its body.

'Eek eek'

All of a sudden, the baby fire monkey let out a few loud noises and as soon as it did that, the blood from the surrounding fire ghouls also came out of their bodies before rushing towards the baby fire monkey.

If someone watches the scene inside the cave, they would be shocked to death because even the demonic cultivators were not able to refine the blood from 100 fire ghouls at the same time except for the powerful demon cultivators.

As for how the baby fire monkey was able to do it, no one knows.

If Henrick was inside the cave, he would be frightened because the scene in the cave was crueler than he had thought.

Nevertheless, the baby fire monkey continued to refine the blood from the fire ghouls before it absorbed them into its body.

With each blood drop absorbed into its body, the fur on its body glowed with a red light before returning back to its brown colour.

…..

Time continued to flow and soon two hours passed,

'What is it doing? It should be over an hour back,'

While Nick was resting his back against a huge tree, Henrick was watching for any beasts that might attack them.

So, after watching for any beasts for a couple of hours, Henrick was bored as he looked towards the entrance of the fire ghoul cave and raised his brows.

'Should I go take a look?'

Henrick was a little bit worried about the baby fire monkey before he knew that the baby fire monkey was using a demonic cultivation technique to refine the blood of the huge fire ghoul.

If the process went wrong, the baby fire monkey might turn completely insane.

'Henrick, how long has it been? Did your Spark come out of the cave?'

Just as he was thinking to go inside the cave, Nick woke up from his sleep as he asked Henrick about the time and the baby fire monkey.

"You can sleep for some more time or cultivate. Let it come out of the cave on its own,"

Henrick didn't answer Nick's first question and asked him to cultivate or sleep for some more time.

'From the contract I have with Spark, it is still fine and its cultivation seems to be rapidly increasing. Maybe I should wait for some more time and let it completely absorb the blood of the huge fire ghoul,'

As he was worried about the baby fire monkey, he closed his eyes and checked on the baby fire monkey using the contract in his mental sea.

Only after checking his mental sea, he was able to relax and sat on the ground as he continued to wait for the baby fire monkey to come out.

As for Nick, he meditated to recover his internal fire energy.

There was a particular reason, Henrick didn't go into the fire ghoul cave despite the fact that the baby fire monkey was using the blood refining technique.
