Chapter 21.- Phoenix Fire

After a long time the process of devouring the blood Essence of the Phoenix has almost completed but the most crucial thing is remain to happen.

There are wisp of fire in the blood of Vail, as he have already devoured and assimilated the blood essence.

His blood seems to have the ability to take the characteristics of the other's blood and as the hot flame and tongues could be seen in almost all of his blood on the body.

After the painful process Vail is somewhat able to understand that he have dodged a bullet as he have almost passed out several times.

"Hmm... Trinetri tell me how should I proceed with all the Fire thing, how can I make it my own" Said Vail as he somewhat able to make his thought clear from all that drowsiness.

{You need to arouse the spirit in your body and allow to assimilate the fire with it, as you have a little fire in your blood it should not be a big problem}

"Ok but how should I go with it, as I don't know how to use my spirit at all" asked Vail in with a confused face.

{Think of attacking but with your spirit instead of the body, Just think of it as your external limbs}

{Just like a Qi cultivator who could cover his weapons with Qi, in the same way you could also do that}

"Let's give it a try, I think I will be needing much more time than I should take to make this break through" said Vail as he feels like he was sitting for a very long time.

{Yes it has been three days already but it now without vail as you have already reached the peak of the Bone tempering Realm}

"Wow, the pain really worth it, as it would have been a hassle to break my bones again and again" said in a relieved voice.

{Go on now, take and make the fire yours}

With just a nod, Vail acknowledged Trinetri,

He started to concentrate his spirit onto the wisp of fire in his blood stream and made the them gather in the center of his chest.

He tried again and again as it is a long process and also it is his first time to use his spirit in anything what so ever.

After some time the wisp of fire are mostly gathered and He forms his spirit like a bowl and cradel all the fire into if.

After the fire covered his spirit, the spirit also starts to burn and the spirit bourn like it is a fule to fire, it took a long time to get it in control,

Vail feels sleepy all of a sudden, as he started to gather the remaining spirit into that bowl.

Vail knows that it is because the spirit power is not enough so he feels drowsy.

After who knows how long, Vail successfully took control over the fire and start to turn it into a shape he likes.

Some times triangles some timer rectangles and sometimes Circles, after he got control over the fire, he was so sleepy that he didn't even talked to Trinetri but goes to sleep.

.....

Next morning, he got up and remover the blockage covering the chamber and comes out of the hole.

"What the hell happened here?" said Vail as he comes to see that the whole of the circular area covered with black matter around the big tree.

He was so shocked that his sleepy face filled with amazed expression as he was having hard time coming up with the proper explanation.

He also could see that there are several monitors incomplete body littered around.

Broken limbs and severed heads with black matter all over them.

{When you are breaking through the aura of the Blood essence leaked in the surrounding and it makes the monsters look for the things that have this vast amount of aura}

{The mythical beast blood essence could make them crazy so they charged through, and didn't care about the big trees fruits}

Vail looked towards the tree as he was amazed to see that it could come up with such a devastating blow that could kill several monsters of level three and below.

"So why didn't I see any monster of level four around here" said Vail in a confused manner.

{The Aura is vast but it didn't leaked much and there are not many monsters of high level around as if they are called by their leaders}

{Some are lurking in the shadow as well but they know that if they approach here they would be attacked by this tree so they are lurking in the perimeter}

"No way, this tree doesn't seems to be that much strong as it have attacked me but I didn't feel any life threatening attack"

{It was probing you at that time, and this tree could also detonate itself if needed and the blast would carry its core to other place, it could threaten even a rank 5 monster this way}

{Before long it would grew as new as before}

"Really, then why didn't you warn me about this earlier" asked Vail as he could not understand why Trinetri didn't warn him.

{You are not after its life and I did sail that it could be a nice protector for you}

Vail again goes inside the cave and took his belongings and Little Vine as well.

{This little Vine also completed its absorption of Charred wooden core and due to your fire in the Phoenix blood essence it also promoted to peak of rank four monster}

{It have raised its aptitude and also gained from the blood essence}

{It is not fare away from breaking through rank five monster}

"As I said before, it also got double reward I guess" said Vail, as he was very happy to hear about the little Vines status.

{You should appraise it with your ability and see what is new}

"Hmm ok" 

[Dusk Fantasy Vine]

[Rank 4 peak]

[evolved through its own efforts and dedication]

[Ability : Fire devour, Whip Lash]

[Skills : Fire control, Dream control, Hallucinations]

"Well it really have become strong and those ability looks awesome"

{You should also get going as the higher level monsters would surely come to investigate this incident} 

"Ohh but I want to know more about the ability and skills of Little Vine" said Vail but he still walk out of the hole.

{You could feel them in the real combat and there are going to be a fight very soon I guess}

Sure enough, the map function alerted him, that monsters are approaching from two directions at the same time.

{Little Vine ready for the hunt, try to lure the monsters in the range of the Big tree}

Little Vine also took action as it grew bigger to its peak length of about thirty three long and start to hunt monsters.

Vail also took out his weapon but he again shocked after he saw his weapon,

Thorn looks like a layer of red lines are carved all over its body.

It looks more majestic and cool as it have several weave lines red in color.

The all merged into the hammer portion of the 'Thorn' where the Blood core of the weapon was present.

"Now what happened to it, I feels like a totally new weapon"

Vail is amazed and also shocked that the weapon of his evolved.

Vail wanted to appraise it right away but Trinetri interrupted him.

{Now is not the time for you to day dream as the monsters are not so easy to handle this time}

{Just know that your blood have helped the Thorn to evolve and also it happened to the Little Vine as wall}

"Ok sorry as I was shocked to see a new Thorn" said Vail as he hacked a monster and it sliced the monster into two.

The big tree also contributed by throwing its own fruits that killed a bunch of monsters and this left Vail and Little Vine to take a breather from time to time.

On the other hand the Littlie vine is killing so many monsters like a war monster.

Several times it makes the monsters hallucinate and then kills them in the weakest time.

Sometimes it throws fire balls that have high degree of temperature to burn several at the same time.

They have killed till there is no monster left alive, Vine also absorbed the fire but several attacks from the monsters have eliminated the fruits of the big tree.

Now it is a monster that have no attacking power,

Vail also knows that and approached the tree with in a slow pace.

Suddenly the Big tree started to shake, 

"Oh It has became more sentient from the last time I have seen" said Vail with an amazed expression.

{The aura of the Blood essence have awakened its inheritance and it has become somewhat a spirit creature that could gain and transform itself after some time}

"Really" Vail looked towards the tree for a long time and pulls out 'Thorn'.

He make a cut in his figure and when he sees that a drop of blood is leaked out, he throws the drop of Blood towards the Big Tree.

"I don't want to owe anyone"
