"Damn it! What's going on!?" Tai Kuai looks at his jade ring intensely as he feels a strange sensation from. "AHHHHH!" he yells loudly as a iron whip hits his back. "Stop daydreaming ya little maggot! Or i'll squish you down like a crushed watermelon that was hit if a bat! Oh, looking at me like that?  Your courting DEATH!" Vermilion Phoenix Astra shouted as she whipped him 3 times.

"Ouch....that's gotta hurt. Hell shes more like a demon than a divine phoenix!" Xiao Hei said looking from a far as she sipped some tea. "Still, being is quite fun! I don't feel like crushing the forest anymore! I should try reading those.... paper thingy" she said to herself as she sipped some tea.

Meanwhile, Tai Kuai is running again. This time he is carrying a 120 kg shoulder pads and 150 kg armor. He also isn't using any battle qi but running normally while using "Berserk"state to help increase his endurance. For this reason, he had to run around the entire graveyard 50 times! The graveyard was very wide! As it spans over 500 meters wide and 200 meters long.

5 hours later, he had finally completed it and with a 'poof' he fell down breathing heavily as the weight on his body made him feel like an ant trying to lift up a small mountain. "Was that it? That's all you got?! PATHETIC! EVEN MY GRANDMOTTHER COULD DO BETTER THAN THAT!" Vermilion Phoenix Astra roared loudly.

"B-but....huuuu so.....t-tired" Tai Kuai replied panting. "W-water?" he softly said as he looked up. 'Splash' water came pouring down on his head. "There's your water" she turned and walked away "I'll give you a 30 minute break, after that we are going to the waterfall at the west. It'll take you 10 minutes to get there so you better arrive within that time or else...." killing intent bursted out of her body as she walked.

'Oh why? Oh which god have I, Tai Kuai angered?! Ain't she a divine phoenix? She's nothing like that!' groaning and regretting his decision was all he could do as lied down on the grass pitifully.

After resting for 15 minutes, he got up slowly as his muscles ached and at a few top grade medicine pills as he walked towards the waterfall. He then arrived at the waterfall and suddenly recalled the scene which happened a few years ago when he was training in that forest after meeting Xiao Hei. He also recalled the bandits and the elders of "7 Swords Pavilion*. 'Oh right, that egg' he suddenly remembered. 'That sensation.... the sun work? It will hatch soon!' he gasped at that thought.

Snapping out of that thought  he looked around and couldn't see Vermilion Phoenix anywhere. Confused, he walked around. "Take off the armor" Vermilion Phoenix Astra voice rung in his mind. 'Telepathy!' he thought as he took of his armor. Telepathy could easily be used as long as one reaches the "Warlord" realm, so he was not that surprised as took of all the armors he had worn. Bang! The armors caused the earth to tremble for a moment.

'So light!' he said moving his muscles around freely. For some reasons he felt as light as a feather. He began swinging his arms around and then began running around the trees as he used shadow moon. "Wow! Amazing! I have been running around for 3 weeks and have gotten so much stronger. Although I could still barely carry all that weight...haha" he chuckled.

"Hoho, not bad. But, who told you to run off!? Huh? ORRA!?" she shouted like a brute as she glared at him menacingly. Feeling the chill run down his spine, he immediately ran back. "Sorry MASTER!" he yelled. Very quickly he came back to the waterfall.

"Take this" suddenly something came flying at his face. As he took it off, he smiled bitter cursing inwardly as he walked behind a tree to change. When he came out he was fully naked on the upper body, while down at his lower body was a white loincloth!

'If I were to oppose, she might make me wearing nothing and draw pictures on my body leaving me outside alone' he thought as a small tear came out of his eyes.

"Oh not bad! You look....quite manly!" she laughed as she appeared on top of a tree trunk sitting down swinging her legs. Looking up he said "So....what do I do? Sit underneath the waterfall? There's no rock though." "Haha, not bad, close but no. Sit in water first. Do it until you can stay there for 10 minutes. Oh and take of that inter spacial ring of yours".

If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Taking it off, he paused and looked at her "Hey......If a-" "No hey! It's M-A-S-T-E-R!! MASTER!" she said depressed. "U-Uhhh... sorry master! The thing I want to ask is when a monster..... egg is about to hatch then..... it will show signs right?"

"A monster egg? Yes it will. It will first shake a little bit which means that in a week, it will hatch" she said. "Really"?" He then took out the black fire dragon fire egg which surprised her. She then smiled "Haha, you never stop surprising me! Alright put it back and when we finish training, bring it back to Xiao Hei so she can take care of it." "Okay" he replied putting the egg and putting the ring down next to his clothes.

He then jumped in and asked "Now what?" "Now....just sit and hold your breath. If your innate roar is going to be powerful, then your lungs need to be. The stronger the better. Although 10 minutes is actually the minimum requirement" she said shrugging her shoulders. "Alright" and so he sat down and he;d his breath. after 14 seconds he got back up and gasped for air. He then began doing the same process inside the water for the next 3 hours and he finally achieved 22 seconds.

After that, they both went back since it was very late. Arriving back to the wooden house he gave the egg to her and talked about what happened. After that, they went to sleep and very quickly morning came. Tai Kuai woke up when the sun was setting, although he couldn't see it as the fog covered the entire graveyard. He did his daily warm up exercises for a hour. He then ate breakfast.

He went for running with heavy armor on for 5 hours. Stopped he had lunch and rested for a hour. He then stayed under the waterfall and repeated the actions he had did. He did this for 6 hours. The results were slow, but it was very clear that he was improving at astonishing rate. Though he never knew how he had gotten from 2nd realm "General to 4th realm "General". Whenever he had asked Vermilion Phoenix Astra, she would change the subject or not reply and pretend to be lost in thought.

Finally, a week has passed and on this day Tai Kuai wanted a day off as he wanted see the back fire dragon hatch. Currently the trio are inside the wooden house and looking at the egg. It was currently on a bright yellow pillow that was on top of the table.

Suddenly, "kiik" crackling sounds came from the egg as the 3 looked at it carefully. More cracks appeared and finally the top part of the egg fell off and there was a small black dragon looking at them with its dark black cute eyes. It then tilted its head making it look really cute. "Heavens, so cute!" Vermilion Phoenix Astra shouted as her drool fell.

'Gross..... but she... or he is cute...' Tai kuai then walked up to it and said " hello there little buddy! My name is Tai Kuai! I am......your...... big brother!" he smiled. The black fire dragon suddenly lifted up its sharp arms looking at Tai Kuai. Tai Kuai reaching towards its arms was astonished. "Wow, sharp spikes little fellow, good thing my body is tough, hehe... so you boy a or girl?" he laughed bringing the black fire dragon up to his face.

"Cute...." Xiao Hei said as she starred at her sibling. "Umm....  I don't know.." she said when she heard Tai Kuai. "It's your sibling and you don't know? Aren't you a black fire dragon too?" Tai Kuai chuckled. "So? What about you master?" he looked at her expectantly. "Ummm..... I....I don't know..." she muttered. Hearing this, Tai Kuai raised an eyebrow "Huh!? What kind of bull- *cough* what kind of bull is that! Xiao Hei! Your the same race as her or him! Your even her or his elder sister or brother! AND MASTER! You have lived for hundreds and thousands of years!? I'm an exception though. I'm a human from the county side". Tai Kuai smiled as he looked at the 2 before him and laughed out loud. As he did the small black fire dragon suddenly pulled his left check.

"Ahahagegfdg! haay sdaapr eett!" Tai Kuai complained while the small black fire dragon laughed heartily as it pulled harder.

"Well for now, lets just see what happens" Vermilion Phoenix Astra suggested. "Okay" they both replied.

(last one today! G'night peeps! enjoy!)
