Endless Transmigration: These Shitty Lives are Killing Me
Chapter 42: Rapid Upgrades!

--- Chapter 41 ---

[Ding! Congratulations, host!]

[You have obtained 1x Geocentric Lotus Flame's Progeny, A Wisp of Tou She's Energy, and 2x Pure Lotus Enlightenment Pill]

[Name: Geocentric Lotus Flame's Progeny]

[Type: Heavenly Flame]

[Grade: A++]

[Description: A small lotus flame left behind by the mature Green Lotus Core Flame. It was "originally." meant to be grown for the next thousand years and become a new Core Flame. However, someone forcibly split the Green Lotus Core Flame and made the small lotus fail to develop]

[Lack of Fire Dou Qi when the "splitting process." caused the Small Lotus Flame to become weaker than some beast flame but still contained the purity of Green Lotus Core Flame]

[Name: A Wisp of Tou She's Energy]

[Type: Energy's Remnants/Consumable]

[Grade: S]

[Description: Energy Left behind by Tou She Ancient God, A Living Flame that ascends over mortality. Even though the energy is thin and barely usable for Dou Emperor or above, it could help the host's cultivation grow intensely]

[It also could help the host to comprehend the "Concept of Fire." and raise Pyrokinesis's grade]

[Name: Pure Lotus Enlightenment Pill]

[Type: Consumable]

[Grade: S-]

[Description: Created from the purest Fire Dou Qi under the earth, Pure Lotus Enlightenment Pill is the earth's core spirit. It holds 10.000 years worth of Fire Dou Qi, so consuming it could increase one's affinity and energy toward Fire Element]

"GADH DAYUUUM!" Baek Ain couldn't help but shout when seeing his rewards. The value of these rewards is mouth-watering for his current cultivation.

Even though Baek Ain's cultivation developed steadily in the past two months, it's nothing compared to when he started. Yes, It started to become slow and stagnant recently.

And the Record of the Burning World hasn't shown a significant increase in mastery. He is "actually." still stuck in the 2nd Stage of Record of the Burning World, which is just the foundation layer.

3rd Stage is where Baek Ain could use "Burning Sun Rupture." a profound skill that erupts Golden Crow's Flame, obliterating everything into ashes.

With these rewards, Baek Ain could probably break into 3rd Stage.

After thinking about something for a few minutes, Baek Ain requested his system to do something, "Alicia, estimate how long it would take me to absorb all these rewards."

[Will do, host]

[Estimating host's absorption mastery and physique...]

[Less than a week, or roughly six days]

Baek Ain nodded because his calculation wasn't far off. He summoned Gnome and told the beast flame to convey his message to others because he wouldn't come out for six days.

The tiny brownish-golden fire person floated out of the blue magma field and approached Baek Ain's companions, telling them through a rough sketch on the rock.

Well, Gnome melted the rock with its small hand, to be precise.

"Master."

"Training."

"Six days?"

Lan Rou read the characters out loud and mumbled, "Does that mean Ain gonna stay under there for six days?"

"Wu!" Gnome nodded, waving its hand and disappearing into the magma.

Hai Bodong's mouth twitched in disbelief as he questioned, "Is he going to be okay?"

Lan Rou nodded and answered, "Don't worry, Ice Emperor."

"If Ain is carefree enough to send a message like this. He shouldn't be in trouble there. And just like Gnome conveyed, we only have to wait for six days."

"Are you perhaps worried, Ice Emperor?" She returned with a smile.

"Me? Worried. Bwahaha." Hai Bodong laughed loudly.

"That brat could die, so my niece doesn't have to marry his decent-ass face."

"Lady Fei will be sad if she heard this, you know?" Lan Rou shrugged, knowing Yafei would slap the Ice Emperor to extinction if something horrible happened to Baek Ain.

'Fuck...' Hai Bodong cursed in his mind.

"Don't Die, BRAT!"

...

...

[The host may absorb Geocentric Lotus Flame's Progeny and is "strictly." advised to do it carefully because it's still a young Heavenly Flame that you were dealing with]

"Noted." Baek Ain sat on the Green-Colored Lotus Platform and stared at Geocentric Lotus Flame's Progeny, a small lotus-shaped flame with intense warmth.

As Gnome returned to his side, Baek Ain told the beast flame to swallow this young Heavenly Flame and become stronger again. "Let's see how you evolve this time, Gnome." He chuckled while rubbing the brownish-golden fire's head.

"Wu!" Gnome reacted excitedly, shaking its small body left and right.

"Well, let's begin, shall we?"

Baek Ain closed his eyes and began to recite the Record of Burning World in his head. Since he wanted to break through into the 3rd Stage, he used his understanding of fire elements.

"Oh, wait." He opened his eyes. "Alicia, can you do auto Sign-In to this place for the next six days?"

"I almost forgot, haha."

[Okay]

[Good luck, host]

"Thank you, Alicia."

Baek Ain isn't a genius by any means. He literally graduated out of a random degree he chose in university.

However, he isn't dumb, either.

"Fire is the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products. And at a certain point in the combustion reaction, called the ignition point, flames are "directly." produced. The Flame is the visible portion of the fire."

"That's what I know from a modern perspective..."

"Yet, Living here, I realized..."

"Fire could result in death, more brutal than in the Modern Era. People die every day because of it."

"Also... Fire also could treat lives, giving people warmth in the cold night."

"I don't want to use these terms because it sounds cringe, but fire is the evolution of Yin and Yang Energies. The negative and positive."

"The essence of burning heat was the movement produced by the energies coming from yin(electron) and yang(proton) particles. The faster these particles moved, the higher the temperature would be. When the speed of these particles reached the limit, so would their temperature."

"After burning heat, there is Annihilation and Creation."

"Annihilation is the manifestation of fire's strength to destroy all and to burn away all of existence ."

"Creation is the manifestation of fire's blessing to create and cherish everything in the beginning, like stars and human life."

"Both are sides of the same coin."

"And finally, Manifestation... Energy would have life and intelligence of its own. Then fire should be represented by something. Creatures such as Phoenix, or perhaps Vermillion Bird."

"No... It's the Golden Crow."

Baek Ain didn't realize this, but his body ignited in a golden fire. A massive silhouette of Golden Crow slowly manifested and covered his body like a blanket with its wings.

His Dou Qi seems excited under this unadulterated warmth.

His body is brimming with energy.

And six days later.

[Ding! You have absorbed "Tiny Remnant of Tou She's Energy." and "Pure Lotus Enlightenment Pills."]

[Ding! You have reached the 3rd Stage of the "Record of Burning World."]

[Ding! Gnome has devoured "Geocentric Lotus Flame's Progeny." and evolved to "Heavenly Four-Colored Flame."]

[Ding! Pyrokinesis(A+) have upgraded to Pyrokinesis(S)]

[You have leveled up]

[You have leveled up]

[You have leveled up]

[You have leveled up]

[You have leveled up]

[You have leveled up]

[Ding! You have reached Peak Dou Spirit]

On the surface, Baek Ain's group has been waiting for him.

They noticed an unusual bubble in the magma, and the tunnel shook violently.

"Hmm?" Hai Bodong raised his brows.

BOOM!

A golden pillar of fire erupted from the dept of magma, destroying the ceiling. A tall yet familiar young man appeared before them, floating with wings coated with intense purple lightning.

"I'm back." Baek Ain smiled at them.
