Chapter 103: Chapter 103- Memories

Sol smiled.

Each time Yoon-Jae came over to help him, he would ask this same question out of concern.

But Sol could understate his emotions, he was asking a lot from Yoon-Jae to go through with these sessions every week.

"It’s okay Brother Yoon-Jae, don’t I always recover right after? Oh, and could you come every day for this week?"

Yoon-Jae sighed.

"Is it for the Hundred Plants and Herbs Dimension opening?"

Sol nodded.

"Damn it, fine! At least I can use it as an excuse to get out doing paperwork, get ready."

Sol closed his eyes and took several deep breaths. Yoon-Jae then stood behind him and placed his palm on Sol’s head.

An intense heat slowly emanated from Yoon-Jae’s body into the surroundings.

A short period of silence fell in the courtyard before a horrifying explosion suddenly echoed out and broke it.

Crimson flames erupted from Yoon-Jae and cover Sol’s body.

The power of these flames was simply too terrifying.

The void around the two warped and distorted, even ripples were present as the flames form a small pillar in the courtyard.

First, the flames burnt away Sol’s clothes and then all the hair on his body.

What came next was his skin and flesh.

The smell of Sol’s skin burnt was extremely unpleasant, and now that his muscle fibers were revealed it would have unsettled anyone who saw him like this.

Yoon-Jae had to look away.

He always did.

However, his concentration on controlling his flames never faltered for even a second.

The flames only targeted Sol’s outer body.

Even the ground beneath them was unharmed due to Yoon-Jae’s control.

Meanwhile, Sol was wearing a calm expression as he was being burnt alive.

He could no longer close his eyes as his eyelids were completely gone.

Yoon-Jae seeing this had to think to himself.

’How is he always so calm during these moments? This also helps me train to control my flames, but I’m starting to lose confidence that they can even hurt someone.’

As Yoon-Jae was thinking this, Sol suddenly raised his head and spoke to him.

"Brother Yoon-Jae, can you increase the flames?"

"Increase my flames?"

Yoon-Jae looked at Sol with incredulity.

Sol nodded.

"I think my body is getting used to them at this level."

Yoon-Jae didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at that.

Yoon-Jae suddenly formed a hand seal with his other hand.

Immediately after, the cry of a phoenix rang throughout the courtyard.

The flames around the two increased in radius and became hotter.

"Brother Yoon-Jae a little more."

Yoon-Jae hearing that had to look at Sol with his mouth hang open.

"Don’t worry, even if you lose control once or twice I’m confident I can resist your flames before they can burn me entirely."

Yoon-Jae hearing that gritted his teeth.

With a thought, his Fire Phoenix Innate Dharma suddenly sprang from out of his body.

It did a few turns in the air before it came back to overlap with Yoon-Jae’s body; wings spread.

As this happened, it seemed like Yoon-Jae had become the embodiment of fire.

His hair and eyes spurted flames while their intensity increased by more than three folds.

But it took Yoon-Jae everything to keep them in check.

This state was not meant for delicate situations like this.

There were two ways to use one’s Innate Dharma during battle.

For example, a person using a Weapon Innate Dharma could use a technique to make it corporeal so they could fight with it.

Or they could overlap it with a physical weapon to increase the power of their strikes.

Each Innate Dharma is different with varying characteristics, but these two methods are the same for everyone with an Innate Dharma.

Except for disciples with Divine Beasts Innate Dharmas.

Their method of using their Innate Dharmas was slightly different from any other Innate Dharma users.

Yes, they could have their Innate Dharma Divine Beast fight their opponents, but they couldn’t reinforce weapons with it, rather they use their bodies.

If a person with a Sword Innate Dharma tried that, their body would be torn to shreds by the sword’s energy.

However, people with Divine Beast Innate Dharmas didn’t go unharmed. If their Innate Dharma was too strong, their bodies could crumble from trying to support its power.

At the very least they could sustain this state for a short period of time.

Yoon-Jae was the same.

Though he was slightly better off than most people with Divine Beast Innate Dharmas.

With his Yin Constitution along with his Ice Phoenix which was slightly stronger than his Fire Phoenix, he was able to sustain his ’Divine Fire Physique’ by cooling it down when it got too much.

Currently, his lips frosted over as he exhaled a cold breath. This breath he exhaled had even frozen the air in front of him, despite the flames around him.

As Yoon-Jae was concentrating on keeping his flames in check, he glanced at Sol.

’Is it here?’

As Yoon-Jae thought that a chill went down his spine. An archaic aura suddenly wafted from Sol’s body.

The faint tattoo of a crescent moon appeared on his forehead for a brief moment then disappeared.

Afterward, Sol felt his dormant bloodline energy rush to circulate in his body. It worked to heal his injuries, but as his skin slowly healed it would be burnt by Yoon-Jae’s flames.

The bloodline energy seemed frustrated at this and so more poured out to flow through Sol’s body.

This was nothing new to Sol.

The energy would always appear mysteriously and try to heal him whenever he was severely injured, at the same time it would strengthen his body.

However, to benefit more from the energy his Master came up with the idea to continuously injure his body so the bloodline energy was forced to continue to strengthen his body.

That was how Sol trained with his Master, and now with Yoon-Jae’s help.

However, this time, something happened at this moment that had never occurred before.

"Hm?"

As more of the bloodline energy was released, Sol suddenly felt his mind buzz.

All of a sudden, memories he couldn’t recognize began flooding into his mind.

BANG!

BANG!

"Dad! Dad! Can’t you teach me how to walk like that?"

In an expansive starry sky, a large man could be seen taking causal steps.

Each of his steps would shake the heavens and cause him to traverse incomprehensible large distances.

"Haha, son you can’t walk like this, not for now."

The voice of this large man echoed out.

The child on his shoulders who was quite large, but significantly smaller than the man, pouted and asked impatiently.

"Then when am I going to be able to?!"

"You brat, what did I say about having patience? If you do then-"

"It will sow seeds for opportunities to bloom! I know that already because you can’t stop repeating those annoying stuff!"

The boy folded his hands with an upset expression on his face.
