Seated under the beehive Amon was 'digesting' the insight he had just gained.

It is because of will! The seals help me take control but my will is what operates this 'control'...this means that if I want to...

Above him, another honey drop was about to drop and the other three people around him had already stood up, ready to fight.

The drop started falling and everyone began fighting. Just as someone was about to have the drop slide on his blade which was made from energy, Amon jumped.

A blue light passed through his fiery yellow blade and the drop was in the air.

While he was in the air, Amon stepped on the shoulder of one of the disciples and jumped.

Grabbing the honey drop he directly put in his mouth. Landing on the ground he sat on his previous place without paying attention to the hostile looks.

What he made from his energy was a sword. Instead of a sword, you could call it a prototype sword as it was roughly shaped.

At the initial stage, this was how much he could do. It was very energy consuming and once he stopped or ran out of energy, the materialised object would dissipate.

What surprised him and the others however was the light. His was blue while others had fiery yellow or red.

"Next time he won't be able to sneak on us!"

"It will be mine..."

Amon did not pay any attention as he was absorbed in the moment. His energy was almost depleted but he could feel that it was being replenished at a very fast rate.

The hollow blue rings lost colour for a moment only to be ignited in the next moment, more fiercely as if an explosion occurred.

Amon could feel that his energy was restored and that he could store more. This wasn't the end though. The hunger was satiated, his body got stronger, he felt he advanced a bit in [Bluestone Body] and was very close to the next stage.

I could improve the quantity that I store in my rings?!?

Changing his hand seals Amon stopped his breakthrough and focused all the mana from the Vein Scorching Honey on the three blue rings he had.

The blue rings expanded in length, width and quality in terms of energy. Amon used all the energy from the drop to 'upgrade' his rings.

From now on he could store five times the energy he could!

The further ahead I go, the higher the quality of the honey and also more intense heat... this means fewer people, more benefit!

Standing up refreshed Amon started running ahead towards the more intense heat. The mountain was enormous and the Scorching Cave seemed to be endless.

After passing by quite a few bonfires Amon found one that was about to receive a drop. For this drop, with him, there were a total of three people fighting.

As the girl on his left and the guy on his right jumped for the drop, Amon threw a kick at the guy's abdomen while catching the girl in the air and bringing her down by the legs.

'thump..thump...'

Both of them fell under the might of Amon's tempered body.

Catching the drop, Amon popped it in his mouth and sat down to meditate. He used all of this drop's energy to upgrade his rings. More and more energy was being stored in those three rings.

Amon had two very big advantages here. The heat wasn't that threatening to him at all and he had a tempered body. It was unknown to him why people didn't train their bodies but he was glad that he could dominate them here.

I don't know how much drops I need to upgrade myself with the Vein Scorching Honey... I need to go further ahead and train.

Going further ahead the people he saw were fewer but also stronger. He was walking bare-chested like everyone else now, except the ladies of course.

Finally, after an hour of walking, he found a beehive that was a bit green, signifying quality and under it, there was no one.

Amon wasn't going to wait for the drop while doing nothing. He began doing [Dance of Gan Jiang and Mo Ye] for an hour after which he began practising [Fiery Claw] and [Fire Palm Blast] each for two hours individually.

As the drop wasn't coming anytime soon, Amon decided to practice the movement skill Tai Zi gave him before leaving.

[Burning Sand Steps] - High Elementary Skill, allows one to move 24 meters per second once mastered at the Final stage of learning.

Removing his shoes Amon began practising this skill. Even though it was for a stage higher than his, he could still train it but there were some skills that couldn't be trained until a certain was achieved in cultivation. Good for Amon, this skill wasn't one.

After six hours, the drop finally fell and Amon was there to catch it. This drop was very hot and as soon as Amon swallowed it he started to regret it.

Pain! Hellish Pain!

Barely keeping consciousness he managed to control the energy flow. Upgrading his blue rings until the max. They wouldn't even bulge anymore.

Amon didn't have time to think about other methods to deal with that hot energy, except breaking through.

Changing his hand seals he proceeded. His body was currently bleeding from ears, eyes, mouth and skin pores and cracks.

Holding on, he formed a new blue ring which was bigger than the other three in his body, combined. This ring was rotating around his body and suddenly disappeared into his glabella.

Success!

Upgrading this blue ring to store more energy, Amon decided to use some energy for his body. Instantly his wounds started to heal and black excrement started flowing from his pores. His body broke through the last level of the [Bluestone Body] and even more.

At this level possessed the physical power of 110 kilograms. If he punched something, of course, the impact would be much higher than 110 kilograms.

The [Bluestone Body] isn't so efficient it seems. Thought Amon. He literally went above the fourth level.

Smelling himself Amon decided to go home and take a bath before returning to train. Hunger, tiredness was all gone.

He was feeling better and the aura radiating from him was also more overbearing. The blue mark on his shoulder seemed to have become more blue than usual but Amon didn't seem to know yet.

The pain he went through was horrible and even though he didn't cry his eyes became red from pain. Amon was shivering upon the thought of such pain even under the hot water of the shower.

Dressing, Amon headed for the Scorching Cave. He had to practise, consume Vein Scorching Honey and increase the quality of his ring and cultivation.

The three initial rings were still there, but now the fourth ring, the first ring of the Elementary stage had to be upgraded!
