Chapter 304: Invite Him

The Baih Manor.

The head of the Baih family was Emperor Baih, one of the eight emperors. He usually wouldn’t concern himself with the family’s daily affairs. Those were left to other people.

However, there were times when his presence was required. For instance, he was needed for the incident in Baihin City now.

“A heresy cultivator… Well, it’s nothing we haven’t heard of. Tell Peklon to end this nonsense,” said Emperor Baih.

He found it an ordinary event, but Himmel Soan intrigued him. He murmured, “An unknown independent cultivator with unbelievable capability that can make people ignore or forget his existence…

“Who invented that skill? That’s interesting.

“Look out for that independent cultivator. If he shows up again, invite him to pay us a visit.

“That’s it. You’re dismissed.”

The others were relieved. To the Baihs, Emperor Baih was their God. With everything that had happened, especially the heresy cultivator, they thought he would blame them.

To their surprise, the emperor ignored the heresy cultivator and was only interested in the independent cultivator. It made the others wonder about the relationship between the Heresy Sect and the eight emperors.

…

...

Over on the other side, Himmel Soan didn’t hurry on with his journey. Instead, he sat down and took a break.

He wasn’t tired. He could walk for ten years on the road without needing to rest. His cultivation level could sustain him for that long, not to mention that he was on his way to look for Gina. He would never feel tired.

He chose to rest here because of an important reason. There was a volcano nearby!

When he walked past it, Firey, who was still in the form of the heart of the volcano, reacted strongly.

To Himmel Soan, Firey’s importance was second to Gina only. Since she had reacted to the volcano, he would make a stop for her.

He did some calculations and realized it was about time for her to wake up. He climbed up the volcano and jumped into its opening. That way, maybe Firey would recover faster.

“Did you see that?”

“You saw it, too? I thought I had an illusion! So, what I saw did happen!”

“I can’t believe my eyes either. Why would someone jump into a volcano? I thought he only climbed up there to find something.”

“He was such a young man. Why would he do such a thing?”

“Could he be looking for the essence of nature down there?”

“The essence of nature isn’t that easy to find! Even if it’s down there, you don’t just go inside! Even Nascent masters have died in that volcano before!”

A few villagers from nearby villages and some travelers like Himmel Soan saw him jumping down. They gathered together to discuss what they saw.

They watched as Himmel Soan jumped into the volcano.

The local people had marked this volcano as a dangerous place, and only cultivators of the Nascent stage or above could enter. No one had dared approach the volcano. Then something like this happened.

Just then, they heard the sound of something boiling.

“Is something coming out?”

“Why does the volcano look like it’s going to erupt? It’s been quiet for so long!”

“Can it be because of that man?”

“Of course not! He’s only a teenager. He will be burned to ashes once he enters the volcano. How can he cause this?”

“But I don’t see any other explanation!”

“It can’t be him. I think it’s just a natural eruption. Enough of that. Let’s get away now. The magma is rising, and we’re all going to be in trouble if it spills over.”

Everyone at the scene was alarmed. That volcano could even burn Nascent cultivators. If it erupted and they were caught in it, they would be reduced to ashes, too!

No one wanted such a death. They stopped trying to figure out what was going on. It wasn’t their responsibility!

The Baihs should be concerned. After all, this was their territory, making it their responsibility.

Before long, there was no one around the volcano. Even the small villages nearby were evacuated. They were also worried about the eruption.

However, nothing had happened to Himmel Soan, who was still inside the volcano. This volcano was only slightly bigger and hotter than the one on Earth where he found Firey. It didn’t affect him at all.

Meanwhile, he also felt the stirring inside the volcano. He knew it was because of Firey. Being the heart of the volcano, Firey could absorb the volcano’s energy and turn it into her own.

She had reacted to the volcano, and the stirring volcano also proved their connection.

Himmel Soan could suppress the restless movement, but he didn’t. It was Firey’s trial. He wouldn’t intervene, no matter what the outcome would be unless her life was in danger.

There was a loud bang, and the volcano erupted. It flew dozens of meters high into the air and turned the sky red.

It looked more like someone losing their temper than a volcano eruption. After that, the volcano quieted down.
