I Can Give Talent

Chapter 16 – Special Fire

Elder Cherry is a petite woman with curly dark red hair. Leyvi could sense that she was a peak-stage Foundation Building realm cultivator.

"You are Leyvi, right? The husband of our new Alchemy genius, Mrs Anda. Good, good. Built your foundation just a year later after your wife." As the elder in charge of the outer sect disciples, she knew the faces of most of them, especially the older disciples.

She then took out a communication array device and sent a notification to the elders of the sect about Leyvi's personal info and breakthrough. This was a standard procedure in the sect to see if any of the high-ranked elders were interested in taking Leyvi as a personal disciple.

Anda went through the same procedure last time and it caused a huge storm. However this time, it looked like none of the high-ranked elders were interested in taking Leyvi as a personal disciple because all of them thought that Leyvi managed to break through the realm because of the help of his Alchemy genius wife, and not because he's a genius.

Well, they are actually right, so Leyvi didn't mind at all. They must be jealous that they can't get a good wife like his succubus panda!

Elder Cherry then brought Leyvi to the office of the inner sect disciple elder, Raya, an early-stage Core Formation realm cultivator.

"Elder Raya, this is the new inner sect disciple, Leyvi. Please take over now." After handing over Leyvi to Elder Raya, Elder Cherry immediately left.

Elder Raya didn't like to say many words. She asked Leyvi to choose a house in the inner sect area and then inputted the house imprint into his ID card so that he could access the new house. And just like that, the procedure was done and Leyvi could move to his new house.

Leyvi politely left the office and immediately flew toward his new house. Leyvi wondered what kind of pose looked better when flying. Should he buy a sword and fly on it? This should look the coolest right? Maybe he should buy a cape and let it flap.

After thinking nonsense for a bit, he arrived at his new house. The house here is bigger than the house in the outer sect and the spiritual energy concentration here is also higher. There was also a small pond nearby. Leyvi could sense a few kinds of fish in there.

The interior of the house is still the same, it was just bigger. Leyvi put out and arranged his furnishings again as he used to. After settling down, he uttered the cursed words, expecting a menu.

[Talent Bead |Level 5| EXP 339/10000]

[Talent list: Sturdy, Chess, Gardening, Cooking, Sword, Dig, Taming, Formation]

[Recipient: Anda | Alchemy and Fragrant | 99/100]

[Recipient: Stripey | Steal and Stealth | 80/100]

[Host benefit: Fire Affinity, Tree Climbing Expert]

"Oh, new talents. I hope I can have the chance to give these talents during this travel" Leyvi felt uncomfortable seeing more and more talents on the list just collecting dust. It felt like he was avoiding his responsibilities. Sigh, he was supposed to be a prophet spreading talents to the world, but he kept delaying his true calling by cultivating. Leyvi is being delusional again.

"I already have a candidate for the gardening talent, but let's see first." Leyvi thought about a person.

He sent the menu away and headed out of the house. While traveling later, he might get other spirit beasts so he can't just bring them all around him like that. So, he decided to buy a spirit beast bag. A spirit beast bag can shrink the spirit beast and let them live inside the bag. It was a convenient tool for a spirit beast tamer.

He went to the Treasure Hall and bought the spirit beast bag. It cost 3000 contribution points because he picked the one with the largest space. Now he only has 67 points left. But Leyvi doesn't care. His panda wife is rich! He can just give her a lovely massage to get some allowance money.

Leyvi then flew to the core disciple area and headed toward his panda wife's house. Anda was already waiting for him in her courtyard. She grew some flowers around her courtyard to make it more pleasing to the eyes.

"Hahaha! Anda, can you feel my power after my breakthrough?" Leyvi started to flex in front of her.

"Hmph! It's too early to celebrate. I'll show you tonight!" Anda didn't back down. She still has something under her sleeve.

"So, when are we going?" Leyvi asked.

"Tomorrow. I am going to inform sister Vivian now." Anda took out her communication array device and sent a message to Vivian. Whether her sister came or not, she didn't really care.

"So Anda, where are we going for our honeymoon? Flower Highland? Mermaid Island? High Tower Resort?" Leyvi listed a few of the famous nearby places for vacation.

"Bara Volcano!" Anda answered with a smile. 

Leyvi stumbled. "Huh? that's not where couples go for honeymoon!"

"What do you mean? Our journey itself is the honeymoon!" Anda put her hands on her waist, staring at Leyvi.

"Oh no! My panda wife is getting angry!" Leyvi appeared behind Anda in an instant and hugged her from behind. His head was on her right shoulder blowing a small stream of air into her ear.

"Ahhhh! Stoooppp! It tickles!" Anda struggled to get away but failed. She kept screaming and begged for mercy.

"Husband stooopp! Anda give up, pleassee...." The moment Anda gave up, Leyvi released her. 

"Now you know my power! Hahaha!" Leyvi laughed. Anda just stared at him and pouted.

"Hmph! What power? You only know how to sneak attack!" Anda adjusted her dress again. Her 'melons' almost popped out because of her childish husband.

"I needed special fire for alchemy. A lot of recipes in tier-3 products and above require special fire to refine the ingredients. Normal fire is useless. So, we need to try our luck at Bara Volcano. This place was known to produce a lot of special fire." Anda explained the reason for going to Bara Volcano.

"Ooooo. You should have told me earlier...Don't worry, your husband is going to get the best special fire you!" Leyvi confidently declared.

"A lot of people are looking for special fire you know, it's not that easy. We need to be lucky. Even if we managed to get one people might chase and rob us!" Anda said to Leyvi seriously. 

"Gulp! Don...don't worry..your husband will protect you no matter w..what!" Leyvi's confidence vanished but he still tried to act tough in front of his wife.

"So what kind of thing is this special fire?" Leyvi asked. He was quite ignorant about alchemy-related stuff. He only knew about common ingredients and some popular rare ingredients.

Anda then explained to Leyvi what a special fire was.

A special fire is a fire that has absorbed spiritual energy and developed its own fire core. It is an evolved form of fire. When a special fire manages to absorb more spiritual energy for a much longer period of time, it might even evolve once again and develop its own consciousness. At this point, it is no longer an inanimate object but a real living being.

However, such a phenomenon won't be happening in Bara Volcano, because it has become a common place where people come to seek special fire. Special fire become an important item for alchemists because of its unique properties which are, the ability to refine most of the high-grade ingredients easily, and the inextinguishable nature of the special fire.

It is not that alchemists can't refine high-grade ingredients with their personally produced fire, but refinement is a long process and they would exhaust their spiritual energy very fast. Therefore, they needed the inextinguishable special fire for more efficiency.

Elder Vivian only managed to buy a special fire after saving money for a long time. Anda didn't have the time to do that so she could only try her luck by going to the Bara Volcano.

After the explanation, Leyvi nodded. He now understood how important is it this special fire for the alchemy future of his panda wife. He began to take this seriously. Stripey is going to be very important this time. 

"Anda, don't worry if we can't get lucky, I will become a villain and steal a special fire for you!" Leyvi decided.

Anda frowned. She stretched her hand and twisted Leyvi's side, "Don't do that! Do you want to attract enemies for our family huh?? If we can't find it then so be it! No need to go down that route." Anda disliked stealing from other people.

"Ow...ow..owww! My wife, I'm sorry..it hurts..I'll listen to you okay!" Leyvi pretended to be hurt and asked for forgiveness.

Later, they went inside the house and began their usual sexual match. Leyvi thought he could win easily this time after his breakthrough, but it turned out that Anda had been hiding her strength all this time. Not wanting to lose, Leyvi tried as hard as he could to endure the viscous attacks from Anda's exquisite techniques and counter-attacked with his 'fiery little brother' powered by a lake-sized liquified qi.

The next morning, Leyvi finally won the hard battle.
