My Cultivation System

Chapter 139 - Forested Isle



Chapter 139 - Forested Isle

The demonic cultivator named Curator eyed the baby fire monkey which was staring at the huge monkey statue in front of it.

For some reason, the demonic cultivator concluded that the baby fire monkey was the killer. So, he decided to kill it without wasting any time.

??

'It must have used my son's body to increase its cultivation. I can still sense my son's aura from its body. Damn it,'

The Curator guessed the reason for the rank 3 cultivation of the baby fire monkey's cultivation was his son's body. 

It was common knowledge that if a beast consumes a cultivator's body, its strength grows. The more they consume, the higher would be the cultivation of the beast.

The reason he thinks that the baby fire monkey was a killer is that it consumed the body of the Curator's son making him assume that it was the killer.

However, what he didn't know was it was not the original killer.

"Now, die,"

Nevertheless, just thinking about that, he became furious and rushed towards the baby fire monkey to kill it.

As for the baby fire monkey, it didn't even notice that someone was attacking it as it was staring at the stone statue of a huge monkey in front of it.

....

In front of Nick and Henrick's cultivation abodes,

The sect leader Gamos started explaining about the beast mountain and the reason behind the unusual intelligence of some beasts.

As for Henrick and Nick, they were attentively listening to his words.

Henrick was completely oblivious about the baby fire monkey which was in imminent danger.

"For every few years, be it 5 years 10 years or some time it might be even 100 years, a floating island named 'Forested Isle'. Listen carefully, it is the most important thing and maybe in the future you might enter that floating island too,"

After explaining a few unimportant things, the sect leader Gamos finally came to a most important topic and asked them to listen carefully to him. 

"Nod"

Both the young men nodded their heads and didn't mutter a single thing from their mouth.

"This floating island has multiple realms inside it and each realm contains a unique forest. Its name 'Forested Isle' came from these forests only. It means an island filled with forests,"

The sect leader Gamos paused a bit to look at the faces of his disciples and nodded his head before continuing once again.

 "Among them, our 'Blazing inferno sect' entered into one of the mysterious forests on that forested island around 5 years back, I guess. We named that forest as the 'Altar of the forest'," When he said the forest name that he had entered a few years back, the sect leader Gamos felt goosebumps as though he was excited about something.

"Master, what does this have to do with the beast mountain?"

Seeing that their master stopped explaining, Henrick asked a question.

"Haha"

Hearing Henrick's question, the sect leader Gamos shook his head as he started laughing before saying, "Wait...wait. I am coming to that point only."

Soon, the sect leader Gamos started continuing his remaining explanation, " Everyone including the leader of our entire twin fire mountain entered the 'Altar of the forest' in the 'Forested isle' and started searching for our own fortuitous events in that forest."

"While we are searching for a treasure that could raise our cultivation or weapons or some valuable herbs, the master of the beast mountain was however a little different. He searched for the beasts with rare bloodline and that has the potential to reach higher realms. In the end, he brought back 100 rank 2 and rank 3 beasts from the 'Altar of the forest'," The sect leader didn't finish his entire explanation as he wanted to use their heads to think the rest of the story for themselves.

"So, this armoured fire crocodile is one of the beasts from the 'Altar of the forest' and that means the baby fire monkey is also one of them. No wonder, they are more intelligent than the other beasts,"

Henrick and Nick nodded their heads as they finally understood the secret behind the beast mountain.

"However, that fire monkey was not one of the 100 beasts, he was brought back from the 'Altar of the forest'. Although I don't remember all the 100 beasts, there was no fire monkey or any other monkey type beasts. So, your baby fire monkey has nothing to do with the 'Altar of the forest',"

Just as Henrick was thinking that his doubts regarding the baby fire monkey were cleared, even more questions appeared in his head.

The baby fire monkey was only a couple of months old and they went into the 'Altar of the forest' five years back. So, there was no connection. 

"Is there a possibility of one of the beasts from that forest must have…,"

"It might be possible; however, don't think much. All that matters is that your baby fire monkey is intelligent and has the potential to reach the higher realms,"

Before Henrick could finish his sentence, the sect leader Gamos interrupted him and said not to think much over it.

"Yes, master,"

Henrick nodded his head but he thought back to the time that the baby fire monkey didn't feel any pain even when it was supposed to feel a huge pain.

"Master, is there a possibility of injecting the potential of one beast into another?" 

After thinking for a moment, Henrick asked his master regarding the potential transmitting.

"Huh?"

When he heard Henrick's words, the sect leader Gamos raised his brows for a moment before thinking about Henrick's question in his mind.

"Practically, it is not possible but there are many things we still don't know in this world. So, I am not sure," The sect leader Gamos shook his head as he didn't give clarity on Henrick's question.

If one doesn't know how to do a specific thing, it doesn't mean that thing is impossible to do. 

So, the sect leader Gamos was not able to answer Henrick's question.

"Oh"

Henrick didn't ask any more questions as he simply nodded his head as he silently thought, 'One day, I will find out about it.'

"Speaking of the baby fire monkey, where is it?" 

All of a sudden, the sect leader Gamos asked Henrick as he looked at his surroundings.

"His baby fire monkey already went into his cultivation abode and slept long back,"

Before Henrick could answer, Nick replied back with a smile which made their master nod his head.

"Okay then. I will take my leave now. As soon as you finish all your newbie missions, I will say something. So, complete all the missions as soon as possible,"

After finishing his words, the sect leader Gamos disappeared from his place along with the barrier surrounding them.

'Phew'

The moment their master left, Henrick heaved a big sigh of relief before he was anxious about something.

Earlier when the sect leader Gamos asked about the baby fire monkey Henrick didn't answer as he feared his master might find out that the baby fire monkey was not in his cultivation abode.

Till now, Henrick thought that his master was watching him in his cultivation abode; however, after his master nodded his head when Nick replied about the baby fire monkey, Henrick confirmed that his master was not watching him and he was overly secretive for nothing in his own cultivation abode.

As for how Nick knew that the baby fire monkey was inside his cultivation, it was said by Henrick while they were returning from the beast mountain.

He said that the baby fire monkey left the beast mountain through its shortcut which was easily believed by Nick.

"Nick, since we are not able to enter the beast mountain tomorrow, why don't we have a friendly spar with one other?"

After heaving a sigh of relief, Henrick asked Nick about a friendly spar between them.

"Henrick, how about we have a friendly spar after entering the energy condensation realm? We are still weak and it will not be interesting. Once, we enter the energy condensation realm and learn some energy techniques and battle techniques, then it will be more exciting and interesting. What do you say?"

However, Nick rejected the friendly spar for tomorrow; however, he suggested a friendly spar after they enter the energy condensation realm.

"Sure,"

Henrick also felt it was good to have a fight when they have energy and battle techniques. So, he instantly agreed to Nick's suggestion.

At the same time, he silently thought in his head, 'Since there is no deadline for the system mission, I will take it slow.'

Currently, Henrick was not in a hurry to get more rewards from the system. Moreover, he felt that the rewards from 'Mission:- Duel' would be not much greater if they only use punches and kicks.

So, there was not much worry in Henrick as he nodded his head at Nick's suggestion.

"Okay then. Let's go to our cultivation abode and sleep,"

"Bye"

"Croc, if you don't take care of you, come to my cultivation abode,"

 Soon, Nick and Henrick waved their hands at each other and Henrick talked to the armoured fire crocodile while showing his cultivation adobe.

'Growl'

The armoured fire crocodile nodded its head in agreement.

"Then why don't you take it to your cultivation abode. Both the baby fire monkey and this one will play with each other," Hearing Henrick's words, Nick scoffed at Henrick before going towards his cultivation abode.

'I wonder, why does he hate beasts?' Henrick silently thought in his head as he walked towards his own cultivation abode.
