Chapter 223 - Underworld Fire, Immortal Beast Egg

<Reputation ranking> <.Aecrath world>

1. Henrick silverwind:- 1000 points.

Benefits:- 10 percent discount on all purchases from the soul store.

There was only a single name on the halographic screen in front of him, and it was none other than his own name.

'Trial master…..'

'Ding,

          Participant, in this world, you are the sole participant. So, there is only your name.

Before Henrick could ask the trial master about his doubts, the trial master answered his question.

"So, what should I do to see the names of other participants."

Even though he was a little disappointed, Henrick asked the trial master about other participants.

The thing is, if there were no participants, then it would not be fun. Since there were other participants, he wanted to know about them.

'Ding,

        When the participants enter the 'Master realm', the universal reputation ranking will be unlocked.

'Ding,

        Moreover, the more reputation points you have, the greater the benefits you will get from the inheritance building.

Soon, the trial master answered Henrick.

'Oh. So, it works like that.'

Since he got a rough idea of the reputation ranking, Henrick nodded his head.

'Ding,

          Do you want to start your level 1 trials?

While he was nodding his head, the trial master asked him whether he wanted to start a trial or not?

'Please give me some time, trial master. I will start the trial soon.'

Henrick had other things to do before starting the trial. So, he asked for some time, and at the same time, he asked, 'Trial master, if you don't think wrong, can we talk face to face from the next time; instead of speaking in my head?'

'Ding,

        Sure.

Soon, the trial master didn't speak any further and accepted his request.

"Thank you."

Henrick revealed a slight smile as he walked towards a pillar in the hall and sat down to check his rewards from earlier.

'Let's start with a special flame crystal.'

With a thought, a red-colored long crystal around the size of a finger appeared in his hand.

'Ding,

          Item name:- Special flame crystal.

          More information:- A special flame is stored in the crystal. As long as it was crushed, a special flame will come out of it, and whoever crushed it becomes its master.

'Then what am I waiting for?'

After reading the information on the special flame crystal, Henrick didn't hesitate to crush the crystal.

'Kacha'

'Swoosh'

Soon, a purple coloured flame came out of the crystal as though it was a snake.

It rotated around Henrick for a few moments before entering into his dantian. 

'Gulp'

The moment it entered into his dantian, his 200 percent pure internal fire energy disappeared, and only one percent was left in his dantian.

'What is happening?'

Because he could understand what was happening, the purple-colour flame moved towards his mind energy.

'Don't tell me it will absorb the pure internal fire energy from the energy pillar.'

With this thought came to his head, Henrick became anxious and tried to control it.

'Stop stop stop. Don't enter my mind sea.'

As though it was listening to his words, the purple coloured flame stopped.

'Phew'

Once it stopped, Henrick heaved a sigh of relief and thought, 'You are obedient.'

Since it stopped at his words, Henrick was satisfied with his new flame.

'Swoosh'

However, just as he was about to see the information on the special flame, it proceeded to rush towards the mind sea.

'Damn it! Wait!'

'Didn't I say you are an obedient flame? What happened to you all of a sudden?'

Except for watching the purple-colour flame rush towards his mind sea, he was unable to do anything.

'What?'

However, he was shocked by the next actions of the purple-coloured flame.

Unexpected to his thoughts, the purple-colour flame didn't absorb any pure internal energy from his energy pillars; instead, it released the pure internal fire energy it absorbed in his dantian.

'Ding,

          The pure internal fire energy in the 13th energy pillar increased by 20 percent.

Soon, he got a system notification informing how much his full dantian could fill the 13th energy pillar.

'It's such a good ability. It only took the purple-coloured flame less than a minute to travel between the dantian and the mind sea.'

'If I had this special flame earlier, I could have filled another two or three energy pillars.'

Henrick felt the special flame is a good helper for his cultivation.

'Nevertheless, I can go back and wait until the energy crystal absorbs the fire elements from outside the world.'

Currently, there are no fire elementals left in the energy crystal. So, all he could do now was to wait for it to recharge with the rich fire elements fully.

As he was thinking about the ability of the purple-coloured flame, it came out of his body and hovered around him.

'Hmm...I will call you Pyre from now on.'

Looking at the flame, Henrick casually gave it a name, and when it heard its name, the purple-coloured flame increased its size for a second before coming back to its original fist size.

'Ding,

          Special flame name:-  Underworld fire (Level 1).

          Effect:- Increase the chances of refining a good weapon with high properties.     

        Special Effect:- Energy storage.

          Energy storage:- The fire can store the internal fire energy for two minutes inside it.

'Huh? Underworld fire?'

Henrick felt a little surprised with the special flame name.

'It is related to the underworld fire dragon?'

Henrick only thought about it for a second before he stopped thinking about it.

'Currently, I don't have any metal to refine. So, I can only wait to see your efficiency.'

Henrick wanted to see how much his new special flame would help him refining a weapon; however, he didn't have any metals.

Even though he can buy them from the soul store, he can't refine any weapon with his single hand unless he has had to practice the refining for years.

'Among all the rewards, this reward is the most valuable one.'

With a thought, a huge egg appeared in front of him.

Compared to the egg, Henrick was shorter than it by a few inches.

This was the immortal beast egg which he got after killing the underworld fire dragon.

Without a doubt, this is a more valuable reward he got from the inheritance building earlier.

The creature that comes out of an immortal beast egg will reach the immortal realm as long as it was taken care of and provided sufficient resources.

'Woah! This egg is bigger than me.'

Henrick looked at the egg in front of him with a huge surprise in his eyes and carefully observed the patterns on it.

There were five sections on it, with each section filled with a specific colour. Also, there was an elemental symbol in each section.

'Fire, water, wind, land, and space'

Henrick muttered to himself as he recognized the elemental symbols on the egg.

That's right!

The immortal beast egg in front of him belonged to a beast with five elements.

'As long as I nurtured it well, I can roam wherever I want to.'

Henrick was excited, and without wasting any time, he bit his hand and dropped the blood onto the egg.

After hatching two eggs in the treasure land, Henrick became good at hatching the eggs.

'What?'

Unlike the two eggs in the treasure land, the immortal beast egg in front of him didn't show any reaction even after dropping his blood.

'Since it is an immortal beast, one drop is not enough, I guess.'

He assumed in his mind and dropped another drop, but there was no reaction.

Five drops, no reaction.

Ten drops, no reaction.

Twenty drops, no reaction.

'Shakes'

Finally, by the time his face became pale, the immortal beast egg shook a little before going back to silence again.

'Damn it. More than thirty drops, but still it shows no signs of hatching.'

Henrick had already lost a lot of blood because of his right arm, and adding these thirty drops of blood; his face became pale.

'Swoosh'

While Henrick was feeling a little frustrated at the immortal beast egg for not hatching even after pouring so much of his blood, an old man appeared in front of him.

"Participant, to hatch it, you have to feed it your blood for many days continuously. Only then will it hatch because it is not a normal beast egg. It is an immortal beast egg."

The old man in plain robes said with a slight smile on his face.

"You are….?"

Henrick was shocked by the sudden appearance of an old man; however, when he saw the badge on the old man's robes, he knew that the old man was related to the inheritance building.

"Didn't you ask me to talk to you directly?"

The old man walked towards the immortal beast egg and caressed it a little.

"Trial master?"

"Yes"

The old man nodded his head as he stopped caressing the immortal beast egg and said, "You have already fed enough of your blood for today. You can feed it once again tomorrow."

"I will follow your suggestion, trial master."

Even if the old man didn't say that, Henrick would have done the same because he was already feeling weakness all over his body, and if he continued to feed it, he would be harming his own life for nothing.

"Don't bother about me. Do what you want to do and when you want to try the trials, just call me."

The old man seemed to enjoy seeing the various items in the inheritance building, and for what reason he was happy, except for him, no one knows.
