Chapter 309: Chapter 309: The Heart of Flame

Translator: 549690339 |

Looking at the boy sitting cross-legged in front of him and the Food Spirit by his side, surrounded by wisps of flame, Lu Dong couldn’t help but rub his eyes.

Then, there was a moment of silence.

What the hell?

With his keen eyes, he could clearly judge that the Food Spirit in the Refining Fire Altar was absorbing the surrounding high temperature in a strange rhythm, transforming it into its own power. The originally nearly depleted spiritual power was rapidly recovering.

This was precisely the special secret technique, Capturing Fire, that had been handed down from generation to generation in the Yan Mountain Training Ground.

This secret technique was created by the ancestors of the Lu Family. It was the biggest reliance for the Lu Family when guarding this sealed active volcano from generation to generation.

The Lu family did not keep this secret technique to themselves. Every generation of training ground masters would teach this special secret technique to the recognized Spirit Chefs.

The reason why the Refining Fire Altar in the Refining Fire Hall could absorb terrible high temperatures that ordinary people could not bear was because it had solidified the power of the Capturing Fire Secret Technique.

Although the environment there was treacherous, it was the best place to comprehend the secret technique.

Lu Dong’s test was, in itself, a kind of guidance for the Spirit Chefs.

Normally, by releasing fire type nature-based combat skills, it would be impossible for the Spirit Chef to withstand the Refining Fire Altar for ten minutes.

But as long as they notice the peculiarity of the Refining Fire Altar and comprehend a smattering of the Capturing Fire Secret Technique, it is enough for the Spirit Chef to persevere for more than ten minutes.

Seeing that Qin Lang only realized this at the last moment, Lu Dong had already planned to have his Food Spirit rescue him.

Unexpectedly, Qin Lang’s Food Spirit mastered Capturing Fire Secret Technique so easily, and it wasn’t just a basic understanding.

This was the full Capturing Fire Secret Technique!

Although the Food Spirit still seemed a little unfamiliar when performing it, it was mastering this power at a terrifying speed.

After watching intently for a moment, Lu Dong suddenly spoke.

“The testis over.”

Qin Lang was also startled by the sudden change in Dan Bao. His desperate guidance unexpectedly allowed Dan Bao to master the technique.

At this moment, hearing Lu Dong say that the test is over, Qin Lang became anxious immediately.

“Mr. Lu Dong, we can still hold on!”

“The assessment has been passed.” Lu Dong replied irritably.

When he saw the circulating flame around Dan Bao, he knew that holding on for ten minutes would no longer be a problem for Qin Lang.

Let alone ten minutes, after mastering the Capturing Fire Secret Technique proficiently, it wasn’t a difficult task to let Qin Lang stay in the Refining Fire Altar all the time.

Hearing Mr. Lu Dong say this, Qin Lang let out a sigh of relief. Instead of insisting on, he quickly left with Dan Bao.

He had many questions to ask Mr. Lu Dong.

For example, what exactly did Dan Bao master at this moment.

However, Lu Dong spoke faster than him.

“This is the first time I’ve seen a Food Spirit so gifted.” Mr. Lu Dong said with a hint of emotion, looking at Dan Bao still surrounded by flickering flames at this moment.

“How did you comprehend this power?”

“Coocoocoo~”

Knowing that the adult in front of him was asking a question, Dan Bao thought for a moment, then carefully recounted his feelings.

“Dan Bao said that it imagined itself to be part of the surrounding Yan Yao Stones, thought it could absorb the heat from its surroundings like them, and then it succeeded.” Qin Lang acted as the translator, clearly expressing Dan Bao’s meaning.

At the same time, he was also questioning in his heart.

These seemed to be the words he used to guide Dan Bao.

But my guidance was clearly based on luck, an attempt akin to a blind cat running into a dead mouse.

Did I actually guess it right?

“Is…is it really this simple?” Lu Dong asked incredulously.

Despite personally hearing Qin Lang’s guidance, he still couldn’t believe that their inherited secret technique that has been passed down in his family for many years would be comprehended in such an easy and childish manner.

Upon noticing Lu Dong’s expression, Qin Lang thought to himself.

It appears that Mr. Lu Dong indeed understood the power Dan Bao had comprehended at this moment.

“Mr. Lu Dong, could you please explain what Dan Bao has comprehended?”

“Uh…” Lu Dong paused for a moment, then slowly spoke. “This is a Secret Technique called Capturing Fire, developed by our Lu Family’s ancestors.”

“As the name suggests, Capturing Fire enables one to absorb surrounding heat, speeding up self-recovery.”

“But one thing to note is that Capturing Fire can only absorb the natural high temperature. It can’t absorb the heat caused by Spiritual Power.”

“In other words, a Food Spirit with the technique of Capturing Fire has a greater advantage in a high-temperature environment but it is not immune to fire-type attacks from other Food Spirits.”

“Capturing Fire Secret Technique…” Qin Lang repeated, then an apologetic look appeared on his face. “Mr. Lu Dong, I’m sorry for comprehending your family’s secret technique without permission.”

“No, you don’t need to apologize.” Lu Dong shook his head. “Capturing Fire is a reward to those who earn the approval of the Lu Family’s Spirit Executors.” “What?” Qin Lang looked surprised.

“You must have heard, that after passing my test, one can get my guidance in the area of flame-type combat skills.” Lu Dong glanced at Qin Lang.

“Yes.” Qin Lang nodded without hesitation.

In fact, he rushed here to the test immediately, one of his reasons was this one.

“Having experienced the heat in the Refining Fire Altar, you should understand that a Spirit Chef with two two-star Food Spirits would definitely not be able to brute force their way.”

“Maybe a more powerful Spirit Chef could force their way through, but that would defy the purpose of this test.”

“The Refining Fire Altar is the best place to comprehend the Capturing Fire Secret Technique.”

“The solidified Capturing Fire Secret Technique is here, all the time you can feel the power of the Capturing Fire Secret Technique.”

“Once a glimpse of it is grasped during the time maintained by brute force, it’s sufficient for the Spirit Chef to easily persist for more than ten minutes.”

“After passing the examination, I will formally teach the approved Spirit Chef how to use the Capturing Fire Secret Technique. This is my guidance.”

“So that’s the case.” After hearing Mr. Lu Dong’s explanation, Qin Lang finally understood, “In that case, please instruct the complete version of the Capturing Fire Secret Technique, Mr. Lu Dong!”

After hearing Lu Dong’s words, he subconsciously thought that Dan Bao, like other passers of the test, had only scratched the surface of the Capturing Fire Secret Technique.

This made him a bit excited.

The basic understanding is already so powerful, how great is the complete version of Capturing Fire Secret Technique?

He completely ignored the severe twitching at the corner of Lu Dong’s mouth.

“No need for further instruction, the complete version is indeed what your Food Spirit has comprehended.” Lu Dong murmured. He took out a badge from his jacket and handed it to Qin Lang, “Take this, we can go now.”

What the…

Qin Lang took the copper-bottomed emblem, which had a flame pattern at the center and a red crystal stone floating above it. The words “Lanqiu City • Flame Heart” were on it. He couldn’t help but look at Dan Bao who looked innocent beside him.

Has the complete version really been comprehended?
