Primordial Chaos Dragon Tower: Harem System-Chapter 770: Weak Flame Comprehension
Chapter 770: Weak Flame Comprehension
The moment Kent stepped on the first step leading to the fifth level, he felt a change in the air. It was instant, like how it was meant to be.
Initially, it was just hot.
There was nothing else to it.
It was pure heat, one that made those with no real talent for flame control and circulation give up easily. It was merely a battle against the heat, and Kent won due to his overpowering aspects.
However, now, it was more than just heat.
This time, there was intent behind the heat.
It felt heavy, challenging, and validating.
The feeling was just too bland, like whoever designed the Flame Tower wasn’t really sure anyone would dare to brave the fifth level, so they just left their intent there without much refinement.
But while that may be an oversight on their part, Kent was now facing the music, and while he would love to say this time he could breeze through easily, the truth of the matter was that he had to take it slower this time.
And he did. He started moving slowly, allowing his body to adapt and benefit from the heat energy.
After ascending the 30th step, Kent felt something within his body activate, causing a smile to spread across his face.
His Flame Art, which he spent millions on, was finally activated, increasing his understanding of the flame merely by climbing the stairs.
“I guess I was right all along. If the heat is just too much, the technique will automatically kick in thanks to my Sword Mind passive skill.”
With that activated, Kent increased his pace some more, though he wasn’t walking through the process like somebody who had already adapted to the Flame Tower.
⟦Your understanding of the flame has increased, slightly⟧
⟦Your weak flame resistance grows stronger⟧
⟦Your soul flame grows stronger⟧
These three messages started showing every step he climbed. Naturally, this was something everyone would love to have, and Kent was having it.
He had already surpassed the level where he would have to sit down and cultivate like the others were doing, so he was merely moving through the process like it was the most normal thing to do.
Meanwhile, on the fourth level, Freya Stoneforge had just managed to step onto the last step, feeling the heat wash away from her body.
She took a big exhale and then looked around her.
“Huh… where is that human?” she wondered, not seeing Kent around. She expected to see him and confront him for calling her a little one. But as it turns out, Kent was nowhere to be found.
“Was I hallucinating?” she wondered, not seeing anyone around. Of course, the moment her eyes landed on the punch in her hand, she knew she wasn’t hallucinating.
Kent gave her that pouch, so he was supposed to find it at the 4th level.
Then the realization struck her.
“He is heading to the fifth floor.” Just saying this was enough to make her choke on her breath, feeling her body shake in fear.
The road to the fourth level was no simple thing. She had already been through it, and while she would love to one day brag about her accomplishment, she knew that it wouldn’t be pleasant whenever she remembered how much she had to endure just to get to the fourth level.
However, to think somebody had actually started climbing to the fifth level…
“This is just too much. Just what is he made of?” She thought for a second, then shook her head.
“I can’t let a mere human shake my heart.” With that thought, she opened the pouch, which Kent had left her, and found two fruits in it. Initially, she didn’t know what was in the pouch, but now that she could smell the fruit, she knew it was no ordinary fruit.
Just smelling it was already showing its effect.
So she decided to eat it and see what it could do. If it turned out well, she would be happy; otherwise, she would get down to business and do what she was there for. freēnovelkiss.com
However, when the fruit melted in her mouth, she felt her mind expand, encompassing more than she could have thought possible.
Suddenly, she felt like the most intelligent person in the room.
“This is…” Her mind, despite being opened and strengthened, couldn’t come up with words to describe what had just happened.
The Lotus Plum Mind Fruit is one of the basic fruits one can use to strengthen one’s mind. Eating just one will expand brain space, increase thinking capacity, and, most importantly, enhance it.
It is not enough to start Mind cultivation, but it is enough to increase one’s comprehension abilities to the point that something they would need to spend a year learning can be done in an hour or perhaps a week, depending on one’s initial comprehension speed.
Freya Stoneforge is already a genius, so the moment she ate the Lotus Plum Mind Fruit, her comprehension speed increased tremendously.
“Just who is that human?” With her mind opened, she started to wonder about Kent yet again. However, after a few minutes of wondering the same thing – Kent’s identity – she decided to focus on what she came to the 4th level to do.
“Hurry up, Helga. With this fruit, we can finally change our destiny and prove to everyone that Dwarves are not simple.”
With that, she moved toward the 36 tomes and began looking through them to find the techniques she wanted and those she would recommend to her friend once she reached the fourth level.
⟦Your understanding of the flame has increased greatly⟧
⟦Your weak flame resistance grows stronger⟧
⟦Your soul flame grows stronger⟧
Kent stepped on the 67th step, and like he had expected, a new set of messages appeared. Only this time, instead of his understanding increasing slightly, it moved to the next stage, which was greatly.
“Almost there at this point,” Kent said as he stepped on the 68th step, feeling the heat increase yet again. The intent had also intensified, pressing down hard on him.
He took the step to the 69th step, and that was when a different message appeared.
⟦Your understanding of the flame has increased tremendously⟧
⟦Congratulations, you have attained weak flame comprehension⟧
“Finally,” Kent smiled, feeling something unlock within him. It was foreign, almost like it wasn’t meant to be there in the first place. But Kent felt it, and that was when he knew he had done it.
He felt his understanding of the flame expand toward a path he never knew possible.
“Damn, at this rate, complete extraction can be mastered since I never knew I could handle the flame this way,” Kent said, smiling.
His main reason for learning the flame was for alchemy, and now that he had attained some level of comprehension, he started to see a path forward.
A crazy path, one where his control over the flame will reach Perfect Harmony, making him gain the flame recognition and finally become one with the flame.
Of course, another motivation was his duel with the pill princess.
“I don’t know her, but judging by how everyone talks about her, I have no doubt she has already mastered complete extraction. I also need to accomplish that and perhaps even go for dual concoction.”
Kent knew he was perhaps just expecting a good duel, which was why he was being paranoid. But it wouldn’t hurt to gain some understanding of the flame and increase his skills in alchemy before entering the sect.
“Onward then.” With his understanding already at the weak stage, Kent knew it was only a matter of time before he got to the fifth level.
So he started climbing yet again.
