"Master"

Henrick immediately stood up and greeted the owner of the voice with a bow.

​​

The voice belonged to Sect leader Gamos and judging from the expression on his face he looked very angry.

"Answer me, what are you doing for the past few days?" Sect leader controlled his anger at his new disciple and asked with a face full of seriousness.

He could sense that Henrick didn't even grasp a single thing about the cultivation technique and suppressed his anger, he asked Henrick.

"I am trying to grasp the cultivation technique that you gave me, master," Henrick nervously lied to Gamos with his head down.

"Good good good," Sect leader Gamos was very angry that he said 'Good' three times in a deep voice.

Although he gave one month as a deadline, he thought that Henrick would probably learn the cultivation technique within half a month; however, he didn't expect that Henrick didn't even grasp a single thing about the cultivation technique.

"Whatever, if you don't comprehend the 'Blazing Sun Sutra' in the next 15 days, I will make sure that you will go back to being the working disciple once again for your entire life," Sect leader Gamos said with an irritated expression on his face.

'Looks like I thought very highly about you...such a disappointment,' Sect leader Gamos thought in his head before his projection disappeared from the cultivation abode.

Even though he was angry he knew the difficulty of that cultivation technique. He himself took more than a month to grasp the volume 1 of the 'Blazing Sun Sutra'. So, he tried to calm down and asked Henrick to learn it within the next 15 days.

"Yes, master,"

From to beginning to end, Henrick just listened to the Sect leader's angry voice and didn't dare to utter a single word because he knew he was in the wrong.

'Just one more day, sect master. After that I will start grasping the cultivation technique,' Henrick muttered in a deep voice.

Since he had already reached 99 percent of the fire affinity, he assumed that the remaining one percent would be achieved in a single day.

Moreover, after the system deduced the Blazing Sun Sutra, Henrick had the complete confidence that he would grasp the cultivation technique in less than 10 days.

'System, can I meditate now and increase my fire affinity by another percent so that I can start my cultivation from tomorrow,'

It was night now and Henrick's sleep disappeared without a trace after the sudden appearance of the sect leader's projection. So, he asked the system whether he could meditate for some more time.

'Ding,

Absolutely not. Even if the master meditates now, it would not increase your fire affinity in any way.

The system instantly replied, making Henrick shook his head.

Before one starts their cultivation journey, even if one meditates more than the specific hours, it would not help them. So, the system asked Henrick to not bother about meditating for today.

"Okay then...I will sleep," Henrick replied to the system and thought inside his head, 'I will meditate tomorrow and start grasping the cultivation technique as soon my fire affinity reaches 100 percent.'

...….

Inside the sect leader's building,

"What is wrong with him? Why didn't he grasp a single thing until now?"

Inside the sect leader's building, there was a cultivation abode in which Sect leader Gamos walked from here and there while thinking about Henrick.

"Nick has already grasped the cultivation technique five days ago and even started his cultivation. Moreover, today, he even reached stage 2 in the body cleansing realm,"

Thinking about Nick, the angry expression on Sect leader Gamos' face was replaced with a smiled expression.

'Even among the inner sect disciples, that blazing sun sutra's volume 1 can't be grasped within 10 days and what's more, in just 5 days he achieved stage 2,' While thinking about Nick, Sect leader forgot about Henrick and went back to his meditation.

"Anyway, if Henrick didn't grasp the cultivation technique, I will throw him out of my tutelage,"

Before closing his eyes, the Sect leader concluded that he would throw Henrick out from his tutelage.

...

Next morning,

In Henrick's cultivation abode,

Henrick woke up early and started his meditation as he was in a hurry to start studying the cultivation technique that his master had given him.

He sat on his stone bed in a cross-legged position with his eyes closed and all the fire elements around him rushed towards him at an incredible speed.

If the sect leader or other upper echelon of the outer sect had noticed that they would have been shocked because the speed at which the fire elements were rushing towards Henrick was very fast and it was very rare even in the inner sect.

However, all those incoming fire elements were bounced back when they touched Henrick's skin and once again rushed at him with full force.

The process repeated but the fire elements were continuously bounced back.

'Damn it… less than an hour has left to finish my daily meditation. I need to reach 100 percent of fire affinity as soon as possible,' Henrick muttered in a low voice with a face full of anxiousness.

He was anxious because if he didn't reach 100 percent in fire affinity today, he had to wait for another day to start his cultivation.

'Ding,

Master, you don't need to feel anxiousness. Let nature take its course and you just focus on meditating and don't think about anything else.

Just as he was becoming anxious, the system sent a notification suggesting Henrick stay calm.

'That's right! Why am I feeling anxious over it? I have enough time to reach 100 percent of fire affinity and grasp the cultivation technique,' Finally, after hearing the system notification, Henrick calmed down and fully focused on meditation and tried to sense the fire elements around him.

As soon as he became focused the fire elements around him looked excited and rushed at him with full force.
