Jim wasn't moving according to any logic, but only the instinct of survival drove him to do that. He landed directly over the large piece of orb and held it in one hand while the other had his sword.
He was ready for a brutal fight now with nothing else to protect but his own life.
The moment he touched that ore, he suddenly felt a gush of energy inside his body. He was used to absorbing energy from Jenny and Lan before but this time it seemed quite different.
The amount and quality of energy were totally on another whole level. He glanced in surprise at the ore he put on the ground like a giant rod an old man was leaning over and saw the red fire swirling all over the ore.
The ore was just introverted moments ago, not showing anything of what the old man said before about it. However when he touched it, it seemed like this piece of ore got transformed.
And next his body was literally on fire.
