--- Chapter 89 ---
[You have obtained 200kg of Impure Flaming Meteor Ore(A+), Fallen Heart Flame's Wisp(A+), and 3x Fallen Heart Earrings(A)]
Baek Ain weakly smiled because he didn't get what he wanted from the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower. By signing the tower, he expected to get Fallen Heart Flame's progeny, like when he signed in Green Lotus Core Flame before Queen Medusa's fight.
However, it seemed Baek Ain hadn't reached the necessary spot.
Well, these rewards are still better than nothing.
Impure Flaming Meteor Ore is the meteor used to contain the Fallen Heart Flame, which is the outer layer of the rock. It's "extremely." heat resistant as most flames couldn't melt it down.
Even then, refining this ore into Pure Flaming Meteor Ore will be beneficial in many ways. After all, such a mysterious substance can get used in many fields like alchemy, weapon-making, and even artifacts.
The Fallen Heart Flame's Wisp is self-explanatory, especially for disciples of Jia Nan Academy because they entered Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower to absorb these wisps and train their Dou Qi.
However, looking at the grade on Fallen Heart Flame's Wisp, Baek Ain seems to get a pretty powerful wisp and might contain some innate fire from the Fallen Heart Flame. Pity it wasn't S Grade.
As for the Fallen Heart Earrings, these were "actually." made with a small amount of Pure Flaming Meteor Ore and a tiny wisp of Fallen Heart Flame, allowing the person who wore them to experience the same thing as cultivating in this tower.
The effect is lacking but effective as long as the tiny wisp of Fallen Heart Flame still burns inside the earrings.
"I'll stay for at least three more days." Baek Ain laughed inwardly.
Patting the tower with his bare hands while ignoring the searing heat, he smiled and added, "So, keep giving me good things, okay?"
As if the Fallen Heart Flame is grumbling, the tower increased the heat by ten folds and caused several unfortunate students inside to suffocate for a minute. Even the elders, who guarded the place, couldn't help but frown because the Fallen Heart Flame became agitated for no reason.
Baek Ain grinned in amusement and commented, "What a brat."
Leaving the room, Baek Ain returned to the hotel and heard feminine laughter from inside. He shook his head and meditated under a willow tree, minding his business.
The coldness of night doesn't bother anyone in Jia Nan Academy because there is a trace of fire dou qi in the atmosphere, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease.
Baek Ain could have meditated near the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, but he didn't want to get too much attention. After all, Lan Rou's transformation is eye-catching already.
Reciting the Record of Burning World internally, Baek Ain closed his eyes.
...
...
Two days later.
Jia Nan Academy is "quickly." filled with guests from all unique places, especially from the Southern Region. Apparently, Lan Guan isn't the only Demonic Practitioner who graduated here. The same goes for several rogue cultivators from the central plains.
Of course, Baek Ain wouldn't get flustered by such a small force. He ignored these people and used his parasites to get valuable information from them. It's better to get information about Central Plains from people who actually went there, right?
Within these two days, Baek Ain basically only cultivated his Dou Qi and close to reach 3-star Dou Ancestor with the help of Fallen Heart Flame's Wisp.
He signed to the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower twice and obtained more intense flame's wisp, alas no Heavenly Flame's progeny or skills yet.
Baek Ain wasn't demoralized. When the Thousand Flame Refinement Ceremony started, the tower would get exposed for an hour, and the Fallen Heart Flame gained a small gap to peek outside.
That small opening will be Baek Ain's chance to Sign In and reap better rewards than these people could imagine. He finally can send one of his fire avatars inside, gaining access to the area under the tower, which is a place where the real treasure and innate core of Fallen Heart Flame exist.
Baek Ain sat on a stone bench while enjoying the scenery of the Jia Nan Academy. "Maybe I should build an academy like this in the future?" He wondered casually.
The idea wasn't so bad at first, but Baek Ain stopped thinking about it after considering the annoying amount of jobs he had to do for it.
Finding the irregularity and destroying the Hall of Soul is evoking a headache already.
"That annoying goddess threw a problem left and right at me." Baek Ain sighed helplessly. He picked a pill to refine his Dou Qi and ate it, feeling the strawberry flavor in his mouth.
Baek Ain watched some students walking around the streets and even recognized the eye-catching lady from Gu Clan as she walked alongside the eunuch protagonist.
"Brother Xiao Yan, you shouldn't walk too much as your body is still recovering, please?" Gu Xun'er worriedly said.
However, Xiao Yan is persistent and replies firmly, "No, Xun'er!"
"I can't just lay in bed all day!"
"I need to restart the foundation of my cultivation and start making some pills."
"And with my privilege, I should be able to attend the Thousand Flame Refinement Ceremony and heal some of my injured organs." A confidence statement came from his mouth.
"Even so..." Gu Xun'er stared at Xiao Yan's crotch bitterly.
"STOP! I know what I'm doing okay by myself!!" Xiao Yan shouted while increasing his pace. He walks funny because his vital male area is limping.
"..." Gu Xun'er silently sighed while watching Xiao Yan's back.
Why are you so stubborn?!
She clenched her hand and still followed Xiao Yan because she cared for his wellbeing, even when he was like a complete douchebag a moment ago.
'Poor girl.' Baek Ain thought when seeing this scene.
Hours passed, and Lan Rou's bonded parasite suddenly sent a message to Baek Ain.
'My lord, Mistress is waking up.' Phantom sounds happy when saying this.
Baek Ain smiled and walked to the hotel, seeing a bright black and white light from the last room at the back. He jumped over the fence and saw his lovers and Lan Guan observing the situation solemnly.
"Rou is fine." Baek Ain opened his mouth, shocking them.
"For fuck sake, don't shock me like that!" Lan Guan cursed while rubbing her chest, making them jiggle slightly.
Cough!
Baek Ain could feel the stares of Yi Xian and Yafei, clearing his throat slightly. "Blame yourself for not being able to sense me." He commented while walking into the room.
'Ain and his milf taste.' Yi Xian rolled her eyes.
Opening the sliding door, Baek Ain stared at the cocoon with his Cinder's Eyes and nodded because the Dou Qi was swirling inside it. They waited for a few minutes and noticed the cocoon become hard-like eggshells.
Crack!
Cracks!!
A slender arm broke through the egg-like cocoon, revealing fair skin beyond the top beauties of this world.
A stream of silver flew down to the floor, washing over the area with this mystical sense. It was Lan Rou's hair, which seemed to lose all the bluish and become pure silver.
Beautiful and pure.
"Mm?" A soft voice escaped the cocoon as Lan Rou slowly tried to get back on her foot.
Baek Ain stepped up and caught Lan Rou, preventing her from falling.
"Oh, wow..." Yi Xian and two other ladies were speechless.
A silver-haired goddess has descended to this world. She stood tall, towering over three of them 190 cm or 6'2 foot. Her hair has reached down to her toned creamy buttocks, adding a touch to her flawless physique.
Baek Ain blinked his eyes and saw Lan Rou's beautiful face, caressing it gently with his hand. It feels illegal for some reason.
Yet, her eyes have become beautiful grayish-silver with a spark of black and white.
"R-Rou, do you remember me?" He asked nervously.
She tilted her head and answered, "Of course, you're my Ain?"
"Why would I forget about you?"
Answering the obvious, Lan Rou had never felt so amazing in her life.
It was a metaphor as she felt amazing every time she did it with Baek Ain on the bed.
"Orchid Ancestor, I, the Descendant of Lan Xue, greet you." Lan Guan suddenly kneeled before Lan Rou.
Lan Rou looked at Lan Guan with a complicated expression and responded, "I'm not Orchid Ancestor."
"Nor do I, Lan Rouxi."
"W-What does that mean?" Lan Guan trembled in disbelief.
A smile appeared on Lan Rou's face as she continued, "I remember my past lives, but those were former experiences."
"Six Path Reincarnation Flame granted me four bizarre chances."
"My 1st Reincarnation is a wandering soul in complete darkness of hell. I wandered for 300 years before a bright flame purified me..."
"My 2nd Reincarnation is a starving banshee who knows nothing but eats any souls before its paths. Yet I still died out of starvation."
"My 3rd Reincarnation is a magical beast, a small worm under the dirt of unknown land. I survived for a long time and evolved to 9th Rank Magical Beast, but perished in the hands of a human cultivator..."
"And here I Am. I'm Lan Rou now."
"The 4th Reincarnation of Lan Rouxi. Or you could say the Human Path of the Six Paths Reincarnation Cycle."
Lan Rou hugged Baek Ain and added, "This is the happiest path I ever experience, more than my 1st life as Lan Rouxi."
"B-But Fallen Orchid Sect has been waiting for you..." Lan Guan is on the verge of crying.
Lan Rou felt bed from the deepest part of her awakened soul when seeing Lan Guan's tears, but she felt no attachment toward Yin Yan Orchid Clan, not to mention this Fallen Orchid Sect.
Even her past self would feel the same.
Was she an egoist?
"Fine. I'll return to get the Six Path Reincarnation Flame and my former body." Lan Rou decided to yield. However, she was doing this for Baek Ain.
Hearing this, Lan Guan is happy.
Baek Ain knew what Lan Rou's thinking with his Telepathy and shook his head. "Senior Guan, I promise to help your sect already. " He said to reassure Lan Guan.
"Everything will be fine."
Cough! Cough!
"Maybe it's time to cover Rou up, Ain." Yafei suddenly commented.
"She has been naked for minutes now."
"Let's go, Senior Sister Rou~!" Yi Xian snatched Lan Rou away from Baek Ain, leaving him speechless.
"Wow, did your boobs get bigger! How?!"
"..." Baek Ain sighed in defeat.
...
...
Dum! Dum! Dum!
The sounds of drums echoed throughout the Jia Nan Academy.
Outer Court and Inner Court Students gathered near the Blazing Sky Qi Refining Tower, watching several peerless cultivators gather near the Grand Elder of the Jia Nan Academy.
"W-Woah, so many experts!"
"Looks. That's Elder Guan, the Wind-Riding Empress!"
"Over there, over there! Do you see that man with a face mask!"
"Who is he?"
"Tsk, tsk, How could you not know? That's the White Fang of the Black Corner Region. Or else known as the Blade GOD!"
"I heard he defeated a Dou Ancestor despite being a 6-Star Dou Emperor."
"S-S-Such a formidable person actually attended our Thousand Flame Refinement Ceremony."
Su Qian smiled inside and announced, "The Thousand Flame Refinement Ceremony Starts Now!!"
