--- Chapter 222 ---

Baek Ain floated in the soft space for a while.

And by the time Baek Ain awakened out of it, he met with the sight of a mutated mulberry tree.

The tree is over fifteen feet with lush green leaves and several hanging golden mulberries, overshadowing his face from the artificial sun in the sky.

'Where am I?' Baek Ain's mind was in a jumble for a second.

'Ah, yes. I remember.'

'I was still in the Heaven Genesis World and stayed in the Heavenly Prison Secret Realm to get into Fire Roc Saint's Royal Tomb.'

'After that... I awakened the Three-legged Golden Crow's primordial spirit by chance and turned my cultivation method to Genesis Qi Cultivation.'

"Your Highness, you're awake!" Baek Ain recognized Chu Ming's voice and glanced to the left, seeing Chu Ming and others sitting down for a meal.

Baek Ain wanted to sit, but Jing Nuyan kept him down and said, "Please lay down for a few more minutes, Your Highness. We didn't know what happened to you, but we assume you have Qi Deviation."

"Okay..." Baek Ain glanced at Jing Nuyan and saw the slight blush on her cheeks. Well, it's probably because of his face, which got baptized by the Golden Crow's True Divine Flame.

He could only chuckle helplessly because the Chaotic Mask of the Jester was 'indirectly' canceled by the Golden Crow's Transformation.

Jing Nuyan worriedly checked Baek Ain's pulse and mumbled, "I don't feel any Qi Deviation. You should be fine, Your Highness. But my words still stand, so you shouldn't get up for two more minutes."

"I will bring you some medicinal brew you can drink in a second."

"Nuyan is the healer of our team." Chu Ming came to Baek Ain's side and chuckled at the over-enthusiastic lady. "She has been taking care of you for two hours."

"Leader, I can hear you!" Jing Nuyan pouted while brewing a medicinal brew for Baek Ain.

Chu Ming smiled weakly, "Well, just take my words earlier as nonsense."

"You said two hours... Have I been sleeping that long?" Baek Ain couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes." Chu Ming nodded in confirmation.

Baek Ain asked Alicia to show him the time limit for the quest and frowned slightly. Looking at the system panel, Baek Ain only has 20 hours left to find Fire Roc Saint's Royal Tomb and get his inheritance.

It's not good. It means Baek Ain has stayed in the Heaven Genesis World for four hours.

Chu Ming noticed Baek Ain's sour expression and reassured him, "Don't worry, Your Highness. We are halfway to the Fire Roc Saint's Royal Tomb already."

"We can reach the Royal Tomb in two more hours if we fly there."

"But we didn't fly before?" Baek Ain was confused awkwardly.

Chu Ming coughed in embarrassment, "You see... I thought Your Highness wanted to take your time and enjoy the scenery, so we slowed down by walking on foot."

Baek Ain was speechless, "So you're saying we could save much more time earlier..."

"It's my fault! Your Highness, you can punish me, but please spare my companions. They are innocent!" Chu Ming bowed to him.

Baek Ain's eyelid twitched slightly. He sighed, "Whatever."

"After I regain some control, we will start moving again."

"Yes, Your Highness!" Chu Ming responded excitedly. There is admiration in his tone, which confused Baek Ain more because this guy used to fear him.

Unknown to Baek Ain, his show earlier gained more good points from Chu Ming and his companions. After all, they have never seen such an abnormality in their lives.

And a case like Baek Ain would always birth a new legend sooner or later.

They couldn't wait to see him shine like a star, like in a literal sense.

After drinking Jing Nuyan's medicinal brew, Baek Ain felt much better and sat on the ground cultivating the Record of Burning World.

The boost Genesis Qi brings feels surreal for him because everything is just better. His sense was also sharper than ever before.

Baek Ain essentially experienced a rebirth again.

'I felt like I could fight a hundred of my former self and win easily.' Yes, that's Baek Ain's honest thought.

Of course, Baek Ain hasn't grasped his new strength at all.

"Hey, If I'm not wrong, you guys are coming here to hunt Rank 6 Genesis Beast. What kind of Genesis Beast exactly?" Baek Ain suddenly asked.

Chu Ming rubbed his neck and answered, "About that..."

"Our target is actually close to Rank 7."

"It's Thunderfire Dragonhawk. At their young phase, they are either mid or high Rank 6."

"Thunderfire Dragonhawk, huh? Interesting." Baek Ain rubbed his chin.

Chu Ming glanced at his companions and saw them nodding like hungry chickens.

He smiled bitterly inside and continued, "Your Highness, the Thunderfire Dragonhawk's next is close to the Fire Roc Saint's Royal Tomb. In fact, they are the entrance guardians of the tomb."

"You can watch us fight-!"

"I'm in!" Baek Ain's eyes lit up.

"Okay, wait, what? I know you want to fight, but Thunderfire Dragonhawk is dangerous. They are Genesis Beast with a strong and rich draconic bloodline. And y-you're just Initial Divine Dwelling Realm."

Baek Ain was holding himself from drooling. To him, the Genesis Beast with a draconic bloodline is tonic.

Why?

Because Baek Ain possessed Ashen Behemoth's Bloodline in his veins, and Behemoth's prey is none other than the Dragon Race.

He has reached a bottleneck in the bloodline department for a while, and a new nourishment just came to his front door. How could Baek Ain not be excited?

"Are you looking down on me again?" Still, Baek Ain kept his hunger down and played a stern character like a professional.

"I didn't dare, I didn't dare, Your Highness." Chu Ming repeated foolishly.

Chu Ming also wanted to see Baek Ain's maximum prowess as the sight of Genesis Qi Pillar earlier was still fresh in his mind. Not to mention, he saw a glimpse of twelve lights earlier.

If Chu Ming's guess was correct, that light must be Baek Ain's Divine Dwelling Halo. Yes, a mutated one.

And Chu Ming has never seen a twelve-colored Divine Dwelling Halo before. Even Chu Ming's and his companions' Divine Dwelling Halo are only ordinary nine-colored.

"I don't care. I want to fight the Genesis Beast." Baek Ain demanded with a deep voice.

"Yes, Your Highness." Chu Ming could only agree.

Then, they are flying to their destination right away.

Baek Ain felt awkward for a second. After all, flight in the Heaven Genesis World and Dou Qi Continent is different.

One flies after reaching Dou King and forms Dou Qi Wings on the Dou Qi Continent.

Meanwhile, one floats and genuinely flies here.

Although one could only float briefly in the Heaven Gate Realm, a Yuan Cultivator doesn't have a problem outspeeding a Dou Saint with pure flying speed upon reaching the Alpha-Origin Realm, and more so the Divine Dwelling Realm.

The gap between flight methods is akin to mud and sky.

"This is fun." Baek Ain watched Chu Ming and his companions a few meters ahead.

Baek Ain used Genesis Qi stars and accelerated even more, leaving the sonic bomb one after another. Yet they watched him like he was a madman again.

Apparently, the way Baek Ain used Genesis Qi stars is wasteful.

Well, Baek Ain didn't care. The Record of Burning World automatically absorbs Alpha-Origin Qi and keeps his reserve full.

After an hour and a half, they finally arrived at the entrance of Fire Roc Saint's Royal Tomb. They hid behind a huge rock and observed a nest above the cave's entrance.

The nest is around thirty-meter cubic. It was 'meticulously' made of unknown grass and sticks.

"Okay, what's next?" Baek Ain crossed his arms.

"We need to use this." Chu Ming pulled a jade disk.

Baek Ain tilted his head, "What is that?"

[Genesis Rune, Host] Alicia answered his question.

[That's Genesis Rune made by a skilled Yuan Master that focused on the cultivation of Divine Soul more than Genesis Qi]

'Oh, I remember now. Genesis Rune is like Arrays but more arduous.'

[Yeah. It requires not only visualization of the said Runes and deep comprehension and manipulation of the divine soul]

[Let me scan it. So you can take a look at it later]

'Thanks.' Baek Ain thanked his now-useful system.

Chu Ming proudly lifted the jade disk and answered, "This is Genesis Rune Boundary. It's called Earthbound Sand Prison Boundary."

"I spend a fortune on this so we can safely kill Thunderfire Hawk."

"Hehe, let me demonstrate it to you." He stepped forward and injected Genesis Qi into the jade disk.

A yellow light shot out and landed below the Thunderfire Dragonhawk's nest. Sands start pouring like no tomorrow, alerting the Genesis Beasts.

ROOOOOAR!

An angry roar rang in the area.

"Prepare for battle!" Chu Ming roared while brandishing a saber.

Baek Ain looked over the Genesis Rune Boundary and mumbled, "Hmm, I can replicate that."
