Chapter 800 - Changes In The Past Three Months (1/2)

”This… is done by King Hong.” Jing Luo answered.

”Huh? Why?” Lin Mu asked looking towards the king who was awkwardly looking at him.

”I guess I should explain it then…

Basically what happened is that a few days after you left and I stabilized my cultivation base and realized that my body was pulling in all the spirit Qi of the area towards me. It was mostly fire elemental spirit Qi and it ended up causing a little chaos.

Once the fire elemental spirit Qi reached a certain level, it started causing random fires around the city. It didn't take me long to figure out that the reason was none other than my physique.

Even if I had stabilized my cultivation base, I had yet to gain control over my physique. The Dauntless Ember Physique is just as its name, and will continue to pull fire elemental spirit Qi no matter what.

I hurriedly asked Uncle Liu to call senior Jing Luo to help out as I thought only someone more experienced could help me with this. While he came here I tried to suppress the fire elemental spirit Qi and gain better control over it.

When Jing Luo finally arrived, he set up the restrictive and isolating formations that prevented the spirit Qi from leaving the confines of the palace. It could enter, but now leave.

This led to another problem, and that was it became a little too concentrated around the place and made it uninhabitable for others that were below Nascent soul realm and the commoners.

I had to send away all the servants and workers so that no harm was brought to them. It was then that Jing Luo suggested me some controlling exercises and I've been doing them since then.” King Hong explained.

”I see… but cooking as an exercise?” Lin Mu asked.

”Well the exercise I taught him was related to forging. We have to finely control the flames and the temperature during forging, and that is what helped him. But in his case, he could not just randomly forge anything.

We did try that and went through more things that would utilize fire before finally settling on this… cooking.” Jing Luo replied.

Lin Mu nodded his head and could relate how the two things could work, though it was still a bit strange. He then looked at the immaterial cloak that was floating around King Hong and wondered what that was.

”And what's up with the cloak, King Hong?” Lin Wu questioned.

”Ah, this? This is one of the techniques I have managed to grasp on my own. I call it the Ember Cloak and it helps me in additionally controlling the fire elemental spirit Qi. This in combination with the cooking is what's keeping it in control right now.” King Hong answered.

”I understand now.” Lin Mu stated.

He observed King Hong a bit more deeply and discovered something surprising.
