Henrick could understand why the baby fire monkey wants to enter another fire ghoul cave because after clearing the cave, it could again use the blood from all the fire ghouls inside the cave for increasing its cultivation.

'Nod'

​​

After hearing Henrick's word, the baby fire monkey cutely nodded its head.

'Tap'

"You have just reached the last stage of rank 2 and you want to increase your cultivation even more?"

When he saw how the baby fire monkey nodded its head, Henrick once again tapped its small head before shaking his head.

That's right! After absorbing the blood from all the fire ghouls inside the cave, the baby fire monkey's cultivation increased from mid-stage rank 2 to last stage rank 2.

However, there were not many changes to the baby fire monkey's body or appearance.

In terms of strength and skills, the baby fire monkey was stronger than Henrick.

'If your cultivation progresses at this rate, it is not good for us because others will definitely guess that you are using the demonic technique,'

Nevertheless, what Henrick was worried about were others who might kill a beast that knows a demonic cultivation technique.

'Eek eek'

Hearing Henrick's words, the baby fire monkey became depressed as he nodded its head as though it understood the exact meaning behind his words.

"Good boy. Take this beast core and once we return back to our cultivation abode, I will use my 'Ancient fire sure' skill for an extra 30 minutes,"

The thing that he liked most about the baby fire monkey was, it could understand the danger of certain events and act according to it except for the time when it was intent on using the demonic technique.

So, he decided to give it something that it likes and tossed the huge fire ghoul's beast core to it.

'Eek eek'

'Thanks'

Hearing his words, the baby fire monkey's depressed mood decreased a little and revealed its teeth which meant it was smiling.

"Don't worry, in the future, the blood of these fire ghouls will belong to you," While saying that, Henrick continued to walk towards the location of his solo mission.

'Ding,

Master, a new mission is generated for you. Please check it.

This time, before he could take a couple of steps, he was stopped by the sudden system notification.

'Huh? A new mission?'

Henrick only halted in his tracks for a moment before resuming his walk.

'System, show me the full details of the new mission,'

While walking, he silently thought in his head and soon a halographic screen appeared in front of him.

'Ding,

New mission name:- Full dantian.

Description:- Completely fill the dantian with pure internal fire energy.

Progress:- Pure internal fire energy ( 44% / 100 %)

Reward:- A special lottery spin that consists of all good items.

'Huh?'

Henrick raised his brows when he saw the description of the mission.

'Does the system wants me to clear this fire ghoul cave?' He looked at the fire ghoul at first, then the baby fire monkey on his shoulder and next, he looked at the holographic screen in front of him.

'But the reward is good that is making me unable to leave this mission,' After looking at the reward section, Henrick finally decided to enter his second fire ghoul cave.

In a lottery, if there were all good items, then he didn't need to worry about it as he would definitely get one good item from it.

'As long as I can stop the baby fire monkey from using the demonic blood refining technique, it will be no problem,' Henrick looked at the baby fire monkey as he silently thought in his head before changing his direction towards the fire ghoul cave.

"You are not allowed to use the blood refining technique today. If you do that, you can go your own way,"

Henrick knew it was hard to stop the baby fire monkey from using the blood refining technique. So, he used the words that he thought were effective.

'Eek eek'

Hearing those words the baby fire monkey revealed an angry look on its face before nodding its small head agreeing to Henrick's condition.

'Good. By the way, now you can use all your battle prowess along with your bloodline benefits.'

Since there was no one else other than them, Henrick ordered the baby fire monkey to go all out against the fire ghouls inside the cave.

Soon, Henrick walked into the cave with the baby fire monkey on his shoulder.

...….

At a small water pond,

"According to my family's alchemy book, the fire wisp flowers will always beside water bodies as they required more water,"

Nick looked at the serene water in the pond and muttered to himself as he searched for the fire wisp flowers.

'There it is,'

Nick didn't wander for much before he found some flowers that matched the description of the fire wisp flowers.

The flowers in front of him looked like wisps which were brightly glowing with red-colour and looked just like fire wisps. So, they were called fire wisp flowers.

'Time to pick them,'

The difficulty in picking up the medicinal herbs doesn't lie in terms of fighting. It lies in the terms of skill.

'The herb picking skill that I learned from grandma is finally useful here,' Thinking about his grandma, Nick unconsciously smiled as he picked the fire wisp flowers one after another at an incredible speed without any damage done to the flowers.

As soon as he picked them from the ground, Nick hurriedly stored them into the space ring that the sect leader Gamos had given to him.

'Sigh...but before I could achieve something, she died,'

Soon, Nick became a little sad but he didn't stop picking the fire wisp flowers and stored them inside the space ring.

'Growl'

Just when he picked around 50 plus fire wisp flowers, Nick heard a low growl from the distance and hurriedly looked at the direction from where the roar came from and he was shocked by what he had seen.
