106 Teaching 2

"You are going to make the Fire Phoenix Seed as the foundation for this art. And this herb helps you to condense that seed."

"But Master, how long is this gonna take?"

"Haha, I know I know. Don't worry, it won't take too long, only a day at most. I will help you with that. But since the process will be faster, you will experience the pain more. Are you ready for that?. Actually, the real reason I wanted this was because your element was awakened"

"Awakened?" Alex was taken aback.

"Yes"

"When?"

"I don't know"

"Understood. Please, Master" Since thinking about it now was pointless. It is better to proceed now.

Maxwell nodded, His expression turned to be serious, "Sure. Let's proceed"

"Feel your Fire inside your body. Concentrate them to this spot" Maxwell started guiding Alex, He pointed at the spot right behind Alex's heart. Alex immediately followed his word, he slowly moved his fire from his finger, his hand, his leg to the spot Maxwell pointed at. It took him an hour to do so. This is the first time Alex did something like that. He once move his element from one spot to another. But this is the first time to move all his elements to one spot.

After feeling the element gathered in one spot, Maxwell continued. "Now, eat that herb, and stay focus. Don't let the fire out from that spot"

Alex ate the herb. After he ate that, Suddenly, there is a sudden impulse from his fire. The fire that concentrated right beside his heart suddenly wanted to go back and burst out. "Argh!"

"Alex, stay focus. Don't let the fire out. Keep them in that spot"

"Ahhh!" Alex endured the pain as he followed what his Master said. He continued to keep the fire on the same spot. After enduring for one hour, Alex finally got used to the pain.

Seeing that Alex is ready. "Alex, now I'm going to proceed. Because of it, The pain will intensify a few times. But you will need to endure that. I will also help you to control them in that spot."

"Yes. Please Proceed Master"

Maxwell proceeds with the process. Alex screamed "Aaahhh!"

The pain in his body immediately multiplied a few times. All his fire wanted to go out from that spot. If the fire break free from that spot. Alex might die on the spot. That's why Maxwell also helped him in that process. If Alex didn't have any help. He might fail. Maxwell keeps maintaining his Focus on Alex.

One Hour… Two Hours… Four Hours…

After a half-day, Alex finally got used to the pain. Maxwell relieved. After confirming there won't be a problem. He turned to Sherry as he waved his hand again. This time, Another herb also flew. "This is for you. If you wanted to help him, I think you might need this herb"

"Wuu?" Sherry looked at the herb carefully. After confirming that the herb is fine. She ate the herb. Not long after, She fell asleep. This is the same process when she evolved in that cave after she ate Alex's flame.

The room quiets down after Alex got used to the pain.

Finally, after a full torturous day, Alex slowly opened his eyes. He checked the Fire inside his body especially the spot right beside his heart where he concentrates all his fire is. It was really a seed. But he felt, all his Pure Fire was inside that seed. But his Pure Fire didn't breakthrough from that seed. Instead, the seed seems to tuned it down and let a downgrade version from his Pure Fire out and swarm his body. But he felt there is more to it.

"Oh, you finally awake. How is it?"

"I felt something different. I noticed that the seed seems toned my Pure Fire down a bit and let out the downgrade one to my body. But…"

"You feel that you can control the seed and break it open temporarily and let your Pure Fire out?"

"Yes"

"Well, it's true. That's why it was only a camouflage. Your Pure Fire was in that seed. You can let it out as long as you will it. It can be your trump card"

Alex nodded. "Thank you, Master"

"You didn't feel it?"

"what is it, Master?"

"Try checking your cultivation"

Alex followed his words and checked his cultivation. He was soon astonished. "I reached the Qi Manipulation Stage?"

Maxwell nodded.

"Thank you very much, Master"

"Alright. I am the one who talked all this time. How about you? Do you want to ask something?"

"Master, what happened to Sherry?"

"I gave her a herb. I'm sure she will wake up soon. And as soon as she wakes up. She will at least reach Qi Manipulation Stage. Unlike us, She can't cultivate, but instead, feeding her many medicinal herbs or pills will let her evolve faster"

Alex thought for a moment. "Master, you are an alchemist right?"

"Alchemist huh… Actually, I picked Alchemy just because I got the Pure Fire Element. If not, I won't bother with that. Actually, I am an Array Master. That is my job in my previous life. That's why in this life, I got a double job. I am an Array Master as well as an Alchemist. I will tell you about the secondary job in the upper world. In the upper world, the main profession usually something that you excel at. if you excel at sword, you are a swordmaster. If you excel at blade, then you are a blade master. Their cla.s.sification was almost the same. There are seven ranks in their ranking, take an example from the sword. They are Sword Pract.i.tioner, Sword Master, Sword Grandmaster, Sword King, Sword Emperor, Sword Saint, and Sword G.o.d. I will tell you about the first three, Sword Pract.i.tioner, someone who only use sword as their main weapon. If you condense a sword intent, then you can be considered as a Sword Master. If you can control your sword intent to make a domain, then you can be considered a Sword Grandmaster and so on.

Alright, let's talk about the secondary job now. There are three big Secondary jobs, but mostly they said Auxiliary Job rather than Secondary Job. So I will also use the 'Auxiliary' job. There are three Auxiliary Job. Alchemist, Forging Master, and Array Master. You might already know about it, Alchemists make pill, Forging Masters makes Weapon, and Array Masters makes Array. There are eight ranks in those jobs. Rank 1 to rank 8, in simple terms, they were the same with Seven Cultivation stages plus the foundation stage. Alchemist can make pills to boost cultivation, Forging Master can make weapons to boost your firepower, but Array Master was the most respected and also the most scarce.

"Why is that Master?"

"To become an Array Master was the hardest of all. They can make an Illusion Array or some Cultivation Gathering Array, that can boost the absorption rate. But unlike the alchemist, this array can be used by multiple people. You can also make an offensive type array to increase your firepower. That's why this is the hardest. Do you want to be an Array Master? After all, you are my disciple"

"But I am an Alchemist now"

"Don't worry. I am also an Alchemist"

Alex looked at Maxwell's expression, his expression was the same when he wanted him to be his disciple. If he refuses him, he would do 'that' again. Besides, he thought that becoming an Array Master was also good for him. He can use Array practically. Trapping his enemy in illusion or something more than that. "Please teach me, Master"

"Alright. But let check your element first. You really need a s.p.a.ce element if you really want to be an Array Master. It was only for my disciple. Other masters wouldn't have that kind of requirement"

"Eh? Why is that?"

"Well, because they weren't a G.o.d. After I reached G.o.dhood, I finally learned, having a s.p.a.ce element might make the process of learning to be an Array Master faster and more convenient"

"I don't really understand"

"You don't need to understand it now" Maxwell grabbed Mana Crystal "Alright. Let's check it"

"I think, I don't have the s.p.a.ce element" Even though he said that he still placed his hand to the mana crystal.

Like usual, there is a pure bright red since he has a Pure Fire Element. But, like when he checked with the dean, there is also a pink color. But this time it was more obvious. Alex was astonished.

"Oh, you have it. Why did you say you don't have it?"

Alex immediately screamed on his mind, "System!"

[Sorry Host. As System said previously, System manipulated a special s.p.a.ce. But it seems that it also influenced you. Like the previous time when Host tested it with your Teacher. The system continuously influenced you. It seems that because of that, you somehow got a s.p.a.ce element. Within Host memories, there is one word appropriate for this kind of thing. Host is like a mutant.]

"…" Alex was speechless, but…"Thank you, System. Sometimes, your uselessness brought me an unexpected blessing… What is that phrase again… That's right, Turning misfortune to a blessing"

[I don't know if Host insulted me or praised me. But, Thank you Host. Love you]

"Love you too, System"

"Alex?"

"Ah, I'm sorry Master. But, what if I don't have a s.p.a.ce element?"

"Don't worry about it. I will also teach you. You might need to search for some old men's inheritance to get the s.p.a.ce element. So don't mind about it. But since you have the s.p.a.ce element, it will become easier. I will teach you this for two weeks. You can go back after that"

"Thank you Master"

"Sure, Let's start, First…"

Maxwell taught him the basics to become an Array Master. It seems that there are two big types of Array. The first one that we can plant to something and use it continuously. The other is the one-time use array, it used the Qi/mana to draw an array in the air. It was an offensive or defensive array usually. Something like illusion array or gathering array can only be used if there is some medium. Since they will be used for a period of time.

Maxwell taught him about many symbols in Array. The center symbol, The weak point, technique on how to use an array, etc. He taught him all of it to him in the span of two weeks. Alex also absorbed all of them. After a week, Sherry also awakes from her sleep, she also reached the Qi Manipulation Stage (If according to the present world, it was equal to rank 7). Sherry was overjoyed with that, she didn't want to be outdone by her master. After all, she will be the one who protects him.

Alex was really thankful to Sherry. He will be sure to fulfill her wish. If she wanted to eat something, he will try hard to get that something.

Two weeks have pa.s.sed. Maxwell finally finished his teaching. In the end, he gave a book to Alex. The book contained many different types of array. Alex was very moved, even though he can't use it at present, but at least he understood the contains. It was really tailored for him, the array inside the book was his Master acc.u.mulation. The book covered all arrays ranging from Rank 1 to Rank 8 Array.

"Thank you very much, Master"

"Haha, don't mind it. After all, I'm your Master"

Alex smiled. Sherry also expressed her thanks to him "Wuu"

"Oh right. Take this, I somehow able to find a s.p.a.ce stone and transformed it into this ring. I stored all my items in this ring. You can make another s.p.a.ce ring if you found any s.p.a.ce stone again. But I doubt you can. I already tried to search for another s.p.a.ce stone but failed to find them. I also already stored the cure inside that ring. The cure was the demi-human race divine tree seed. You grind it to powder and purified it with your Pure Fire. Let her drink that, she will be fine for six months"

"This…"

"Don't worry, just accept it. There is no use to keep them here from now. Since I got you as my disciple. But I have some request for you"

"What is it, Master? I will fulfill it"

"In that ring, there is a bucket of water. It was filled with Life Water. That time, I saved the demi-human race from extinction. The king at that time gave me that water as a thanks. Since I can't refuse it, I stored them in here. I speculated that after this long time, The divine tree will start to exhaust its life. This water can prolong its life for a few thousand more. After ten thousand years, It will start growing another seed and finally make another Divine Tree. I hope that you can bring that water to them. After all, that time, I took the divine tree seed to cure her."

"I will Master. It is also convenient for me"

"What do you mean?"

"Actually, there is a war between the human and the demon. I want to stop it"

"I see, I understand your intent. I support you on that"

"Thank you Master"

"And another thing. After you cure her, please bring your wife here. I wanted to see who is able to charm you like that."

"She is the one who pulled me from that darkness. I love her" Alex smiled.

"I see. Please bring her to see me. I would love to see who is my daughter-in-law. This wisp of soul of mine can appear one more time before it disappeared"

"Yes"

"Oh right. If you wanted to search. I suggest you have your own factions or take over a faction. That way, you can search in a wider range."

"Faction huh… Yes, I will think about it"

Unbeknownst to him, that desire alone managed to bring him a fortune. Because, unknown to him, there is a notification from the system.

[Confirming Host Will. Because of Host will, Two new functions will be unlocked]

[Faction Unlocked]

[Summoning Gacha Unlocked]

Though Alex didn't realize this for a while longer.

"Alright. I won't take your time any longer. Go my Disciple"

"Then Master, I will excuse myself."

…

Maxwell saw Alex who finally disappeared. He sighed, "Haiz, That poison. I didn't really research the cure for that poison since it was pointless back then. And this is my karma. Sigh, If I had that item, I might be able to stop her time and search for the cure, I might be able to find the cure in a few years. But, that item still in that person possesion, well it was to be expected since she is his daughter, the daughter of the former Time G.o.d."
