My Cultivation System

At the crevice,

Henrick was in the deep mediation as he was simultaneously doing two things.

One, he was absorbing the pure fire elements into his dantian and turning them into pure internal fire energy.

As for the second thing, he was filling one of the 20 pillars in his mind sea with the pure internal fire energy.

Since the fire elements were pure, his dantian was filling at an incredible speed compared to when he was inside his cultivation abode.

\'Huh?\'

After who knows how many hours, Henrick opened his eyes when he felt the rich fire elements in the surrounding area disappeared.

\'System, show me my dantian and mind sea in percentages,\'

The first thing he did was to check his dantian and energy pillars.

\'Ding,

     Dantian:- 190/200 pure internal fire energy.

\'Ding,

     Mind sea:- 1/20 pillars.

Soon, two system notifications appeared in front of him that made him reveal a satisfied smile.

\'Good\'

Even though only one pillar was filled with pure internal fire energy, Henrick was satisfied because it would take months to fill a single pillar if he cultivated in his cultivation abode which is an upper-level abode.

Moreover, if someone has completely filled their first pillar, then their cultivation would have progressed to the peak level 1 energy condensation realm.

However, Henrick needs to fill another pillar to reach the peak level.

\'But if my guess is not wrong, then I must have the peak level 1 energy condensation realm strength,\'

Henrick clenched his fists and wanted to test his new strength; however, he knew it was not the right time to test.

\'Grr grr\'

Just like him, the little spirit fox beside him also opened its eyes and looked excitedly at Henrick.

\'Oh...two tails?\'

Henrick became ecstatic when he saw a new tail and pick it up before caressing it,

If there are two tails, then it means, the spirit fox\'s strength is rank 2.

As for the little spirit fox, it enjoyed the caressing and closed its eyes.

Other than an extra tail, there were no apparent changes in the spirit fox.

\'Raor\'

\'Da da\'

\'Crrr\'

Soon, Henrick slightly bent and looked into the crevice and noticed the two wild beasts, four-armed stone monkeys and twin tail Firecat let out a few noises and left into two opposite directions.

\'Huh?\'

Henrick revealed a confused look in his eyes; however, soon, it turned into an exciting look and thought, \'Finally, I got the chance.\'

\'Ding,

     Master, a new system mission is generated. Do you want to check the details?

While Henrick was waiting for the two rank 3 wild beasts to leave, he got a system notification that made him reveal a happy look on his face.

\'Yes\'

Why would he not check it?

Since he had to wait for some more time for the wild beasts to leave, he checked the mission details.

\'Ding,

     Mission name:- Investigate the crack in the crevice.

     Reward:- A special flame.

\'There is something wrong with the mission,\'

There were not many details about the mission and it looked very simple; however, he knew that the difficulty of the mission was not low.

It was because of the reward he felt that way. 

A flame is a battle companion just like the fire vine and it could grow continuously as long as the cultivator supplies enough internal fire energy to it.

There was another important application of these flames as they could be used in weaponsmith.

Even though the cultivators can use their internal fire energy to forge the weapons, it is very costly and a tiring process compared to using a flame to forge the weapons.

As for its rarity, even Alaster, the top weaponsmith in the outer sect didn\'t have a normal flame, not to mention a special flame.

From this alone, you can see how rare the flames were. So, Henrick thought the mission is not a normal one.

\'Even without this mission, I want to see what is inside the crack. So, I guess, I take a look,\'

It was in his blood to be curious and greedy. So, after the two wild beasts disappeared from his view, Henrick carefully climbed down into the crevice while holding the spirit fox into his hands.

\'This crack look wider than I thought,\'

Only when he went near to the crack, Henrick was able to notice how big the crack was. It was nearly 5 meters long and 2 meters wide.

From Henrick\'s view, he could see orange coloured light in the crack.

\'Should I enter or not?\'

Henrick started pondering because he didn\'t know what was inside the crack. 

What if some wild beasts or demonic beasts inside the crack. 

But something inside his heart was telling him to enter the crack/

\'Grr\'

Just as he was observing the crack and thinking about his options, the spirit fox in his hands started growling and jumped into the crack as though it was irritated by something.

\'What?\'

Henrick was shocked by the sudden actions of the spirit fox and hurriedly jumped because some part of him wants to enter the crack anyway.

He was careful enough to take the support of the sidewalls and slide down to the bottom of the crack.

However, to his surprise, he saw a small pool of water at the bottom.

\'Why is there a pool inside a crack?\'

\'Splash\'

A soon as he saw the water pool, he directly jumped into it without any hesitation.

\'It\'s sweet,\'

The water was so clear that Henrick gulped a mouthful of water and found out the water was sweet.

\'That\'s right! Where is Ruby?\'

He didn\'t think much about the water as he hurriedly checked his surroundings for the little spirit fox.

It didn\'t take much time for Henrick to find out the little spirit fox. It was glancing at a wall that had many drawings.

\'These are...\'

Without wasting any time, he came out of the water pool and started observing the drawings on the wall.

On the wall, although there were many drawings, there were only two beasts in every drawing.

One beast was none other than the spirit fox with; however, what piqued Henrick\'s interest was the nine tails on its back.

As for the other beast, it was a spirit wolf that had a huge muscular body, long teeth protruding out of its mouth.

\'Looks like they were fighting,\'

In each and every drawing, both the beasts were in attacking pose and attacking one another.

\'Grrr\'

While he was understanding the meaning behind the drawings, the spirit fox started growling at the wall of a sudden which made Henrick stop what he was doing.

\'What happened, Ruby?\'

He was unable to sense any danger in the direction where the little spirit fox was growling at. Nevertheless, he was on his guard and asked for it.

\'yelp\'

All of a sudden, the spirit fox\'s growling turned into a soft tone making Henrick confused.

"Finally, someone appeared,"

All of a sudden, Henrick heard a majestic voice from the wall and soon a silhouette started appearing in front of the wall.

\'Yelp yelp\'

As soon as the spirit fox saw the silhouette of an old man, it excitedly rushed towards him.
