My Cultivation System

The baby fire monkey didn't expect that Henrick would become serious instead of praising it to its skill and lowered its head.

'Sigh' ​​

Looking at the baby fire monkey which seemed downcasted, Henrick sighed before standing up from the ground.

Although the scorching kick seemed powerful, it didn't do much damage to him except for forcing him into the wall. Other than that, he was completely fine.

"Don't do something like this again, do you understand?"

Since he was grown overly attached to it, he was unable to remain angry at it and slowly picked it up from the ground while caressing its orange coloured fur.

'Eek eek'

The baby fire monkey nodded its head and with its hand, it made some actions as though it was trying to explain something to Henrick.

"Huh? You are saying you didn't use your full strength?"

It took some time for Henrick to understand what it was trying to say and ask it.

'Eek eek'

As soon as it heard Henrick's words, it immediately nodded its small head and let out some shouts.

"What the…."

Before he could complete his sentence, he felt his body was burning which made him uncomfortable.

'System, what is happening to me?'

While enduring that uncomfortable feeling, he asked the system before sitting on the stone bed.

'Ding,

Master has been inflicted with the burning effect from the scorching kick from the baby fire monkey.

"What?"

When he saw the words on the holographic screen, Henrick was shocked as he immediately replied, 'So, I can't do anything now?'

He was shocked because there was only a small chance of that burning effect and he was so unlucky that he got the burning effect on the first try of the skill.

'Ding,

Master, the best solution is to remain calm and endure it. The true purpose of the burning effect is to make the opponent uncomfortable and it will do no real harm; however, when the fire monkey becomes powerful, then it will do some real harm.

"Phew...I will endure it then,"

Henrick heaved a sigh of relief before closing his eyes and tried to stay calm.

For the entire time, the baby fire monkey looked at Henrick with a worried expression on its face.

It took no more than five minutes before that uncomfortable feeling from Henrick's body disappeared

"Okay, little one. I am fine now," As soon as he opened his eyes, Henrick saw the worried expression on the baby fire monkey's face and said with a small smile on his face.

'Eek eek'

When it saw Henrick open his eyes, it immediately rushed towards him and made some signs with the hands as though it was saying that it would not do that ever again.

"I know," Henrick patted its head and continued, "You said, you didn't use your full force earlier. So, that means you have become a lot stronger," Henrick started praising it while caressing its fur.

The baby fire monkey was enjoying his caress and closed its eyes.

'I should start increasing my dantian with the pure internal fire energy,' After a few moments, Henrick finally decided to start absorbing the fire elements into his body.

'Ding,

Congratulations to the master for successfully forming your own internal fire energy.

'Ding,

Master now has access to the inventory.

'Ding,

Sending the previous locked items from the newbie gift package to the inventory. Master can now check what the items are from the inventory.

Just as he thought about cultivating his internal fire energy, a series of system notifications appeared in front of him that made him excited.

'Finally, I have access to the inventory,' Henrick became joyful when he saw the second notification.

Inventory was one of the many tools of the 'My Cultivation System' which helps in storing the items and Henrick could casually take out those items with a thought.

In short, inventory could be considered as an invisible space ring with large storage that could store any non-living item in it.

So, that's why he was very happy.

"These items? I wonder, what are they?" Looking at the last system notification, Henrick became curious and silently thought 'Inventory' in his head.

Previously, when he opened the newbie gift package from the system, there were some items, which were locked because he was not a cultivator back then; however, now the times have changed and he became the cultivator and now those items were unlocked.

As soon as said that word, the same blue cloured holographic screen appeared in front of him.

Unlike the other holographic screen, it had 9 small square boxes of equal size.

'Huh? So, this is how the inventory looks like. Interesting,' Henrick nodded his head and curiously looked at the icons on two of the square boxes in front of him.

'Ding,

Master, 30 Fire elemental spirit stones (Low-level) are sent into your inventory.

Just as he was about to touch one of the icons to know the details about it, he got another system notification and along with it, an icon appeared on one of the empty square boxes.

'So, this red coloured stone looking icon means they are fire elemental stones,' Henrick understood that without any problem and carefully looked at the two icons on the square box.

One of them looked like an old book and the other icon looked something like a doll.

'A book and a doll? Let's see what they are actually?'

Basically, an icon was just a representation of the actual item that was stored in that particular square box and just with an icon alone, he can't figure out what the item was. So, he thought for a moment before choosing the doll-like icon.

A doll icon on the square box looked something scary which made Henrick check it out first as he was very much curious about it when compared to the book in the other inventory slot.

'This looks scary. I hope it is not some dangerous monster,' Henrick joked as he touched the square box with the scary doll icon.
