My Cultivation System

Chapter 124 - Armoured Fire Crocodile



The huge fire ghoul in this cave was much bigger and looked more hideous than the one they killed in their previous cave.

As soon as the fire monkey was slammed to the ground, it didn\'t stand up again which made the huge fire ghoul take the chance and went to bite the fire monkey\'s throat.

​​

The fire monkey was in a helpless position and it was looking at Henrick as though it was asking him to save it.

\'Fire Demon Stare\'

Looking at the pitiful look on its face, Henrick didn\'t think much before running towards it and at the same time, he used his most powerful skill \'Ancient fire demon stare\'.

\'Damn it. It is not working,\'

However, the huge fire ghoul continued to move towards the fire monkey\'s neck with much less speed compared to earlier.

"Double the consumption of the pure internal fire energy,"

In a situation like this, some kind of cruelty appeared on his face as he angrily shouted at the system.

\'Swoosh\'

As soon as finished his words, some kind of demonic intent came out of his face and entered into the huge fire ghoul.

\'Growl\'

Just as it entered into the huge fire ghoul, it stopped moving its mouth towards the fire monkey\'s throat and looked at Henrick for a moment before rushing towards him.

\'What the ….,\'

Henrick was shocked as he didn\'t expect the huge fire ghoul to come at him after using his \'Demon stare\'.

\'I should kill it at any cost,\'

Nevertheless, Henrick rushed at the huge fire ghoul as he knew he could not leave his fire monkey like that.

\'Ancient fire surge,\'

Since the demon stare didn\'t have much effect on the huge fire ghoul, Henrick tried using his first awakened skill.

Just like the \'Fire demon stare\', he used more pure internal fire energy.

\'Growl\'

All of a sudden, the huge fire ghoul increased its speed as it let out an excited growl.

\'Heavens wants me to die?\'

Even after using all of his skills, there was no use as the huge fire ghoul was rushing at him which made him curse the heavens.

\'Huh?\'

However, the huge fire ghoul didn\'t kill him; instead, he stopped exactly one meter away from him and closed its eyes.

\'Is it trying to cultivate? Sigh,\'

Henrick silently thought in his head and heaved a sigh of relief.

\'Let\'s see how Spark is,\' he looked at the distant fire monkey on the ground and slowly tried to walk towards it.

\'Roar\'

However, as soon as he just took a couple of steps and the huge fire ghoul which closed its eyes earlier opened its eyes before roaring.

\'Oh no\'

Henrick hurriedly moved back to his position which made the huge fire ghoul calmed down and it once again closed its eyes.

\'Damn you...you are increasing your cultivation with the help of my skill and you dare to roar at me?\' Henrick was angry at the huge fire ghoul; however, with his current skill, he could not do a thing to it.

\'Calm down, Henrick and think of a solution to escape from here,\'

Soon, Henrick heaved a sigh of relief and calmed down his emotions 

He knew that his ancient fire sure would not last forever and as soon as he stopped using that skill, he would die in the hands of the huge fire ghoul.

\'I still don\'t understand why the hell a rank 3 beast is kept in this cave? From the looks of it, it must a rank 3 beast,\'

For a newbie mission, fighting a peak rank 2 mission was already good much less killing it. What\'s more, in front of him, there was a rank 3 beast and moreover, Henrick thought it was a mutated one.

Generally, newbie missions were completed by the outer sect disciples of stage 1 muscle strengthening realm cultivation. So, there was no way any outer sect disciples could kill a rank 3 beast even if they formed a group of five in their first newbie mission.

\'Spark, are you alright?\'

Since he could not move from his place, Henrick silently transmitted his voice to the baby fire monkey.

\'I….am...fi..ne,\'

Just as he asked, Henrick got the reply from the fire monkey in its immature little boy\'s voice.

\'Phew...Good,\'

Hearing those words made him heave another sigh of relief as he slowly continued to transmit his voice to the fire monkey.

\'Spark, you are just an inch away from reaching the rank 3. So, I am giving the full permission to refine the blood from all the dead bodies of fire ghouls,\'

When he gave his decision, Henrick clenched his fists and internally struggled a lot; however, he felt it was the only thing that could help them escape from their current predicament.

As for why he didn\'t use the blood refining technique by himself because there was no much hope for him to make a difference even with the increment he would receive from the blood refining.

Moreover, if by chance he breakthroughs to the energy condensation realm, then he would be imprisoned in his own cultivation abode until his master finds a solution to his bloodline.

\'Eek eek\'

Hearing the order from Henrick, the baby fire monkey which was in its celestial form was excited and nodded its head while still remaining on the ground.

It didn\'t waste a single second as it closed its eyes.

\'Swoosh\' \'Swoosh\'

Soon, the blood from all the dead fire ghouls mysteriously came out of their bodies and rushed towards the fire monkey and circulated above its head at an incredible speed.

With each circulation, the quantity of the circulating blood started decreasing; however, it was soon replaced by the new blood from the fire ghoul bodies that were lying in the distance.

\'Sorry, Spark,\'

As for Henrick, he felt bad that he was using the baby fire monkey a little too much and silently apologised to it. 

For the entire time, Henrick\'s body continued to glow with orange light which meant he was using the \'Ancient fire surge\' for the entire time.

\'Damn it….I need strength. With this strength, I can\'t even protect myself then how can I protect my mother?\'

Till now, Henrick was in a thought that he was already doing good enough regarding his cultivation; however, only now he understood that he was just a fish at the bottom of the well.

\'Circulate,\'

Soon, he didn\'t think much about anything and started circulating his pure internal fire energy through all the muscles in his body.

\'I can do it,\'

Enduring the pain, Henrick continued to circulate the internal fire energy as he refined every muscle in his body.

In the cave, all the three beings, one huge fire ghoul absorbing the energy emitted by the \'Ancient fire sure\', a huge fire monkey refined the blood before absorbing it into its body and a human, letting out pained groans while refining every muscle in his body.

The entire cave fell silent as everyone was busy doing their own things.

....

Besides a water pond in the beast mountain,

\'Growl\'

A medium-sized crocodile-like beast growled at Nick before rushing at him.

It was completely covered in a red-coloured armour filled with spikes along with sharp teeth in its mouth.

\'Oh no...an armoured fire crocodile,\'

Nick was terrified when he saw the beast was moving towards him.

\'Calm down\'

However, Nick soon suppressed his emotions as he calmed himself down.

\'Although armoured fire crocodiles are dangerous, they have one weakness and luckily, it was my strength,\'

After calming himself, Nick recalled the information about the armoured fire crocodile and found out its weakness.

\'Come and catch me,\'

Before the fire crocodile could catch him with its mouth, Nick swiftly moved away and dodged the bite from the beast.

\'As long as I use my speed to dominate it, I can easily kill it,\'

Nick allowed the fire crocodile to come near to him; however, just when it was about to bite him, he would escape and he continued to repeat the same actions.

That\'s right! 

For an armoured fire crocodile, speed is its weakness. No matter how fast it moves, it could not reach Nick\'s speed.

\'Roar\'

Finally, the armoured fire crocodile successfully became angry with Nick\'s actions and roared at him before turning back and moved towards the water as though it didn\'t want to kill Nick anymore.

\'What?\'

Nick\'s jaws dropped as he looked at the armoured fire crocodile.
