Chapter 358: No Fire

Alex quickly searched through his mind to look through his memories and see if there was any information on Umbra Lotus aside from the auction house.

And there was, but nothing explicit. He had actually learned the same thing from the auction as well. From what he had learned in the library, the Umbra Lotus was a rare flower with extremely high Yin content.

Due to the amount of Yin in it, it could be used for Alchemy, Artifacts, Formations, and many other places. Alex happily kept it inside his storage bag.

He checked the rest of the bag and found nothing important other than a bunch of raw materials for artifacts and formations.

With nothing else to look for anymore, he decided to cultivate for the rest of the night.

"Come out Pearl," he said and brought Pear out of the tattoo. In a white flash of light, Pearl appeared in front of him. Alex immediately grabbed Pearl in fear that he would lose him in this formation.

"Alright, stay inside my robe and we will cultivate, okay?" Alex said.

"Meow," Pearl meowed back in agreement. And so, the human-beast duo cultivated throughout the night. The night was peaceful. The space changed multiple times, but they were never separated. Not only that, nothing entered the formation either.

As such, this was one of the best places to cultivate throughout the night.

Alex woke up early in the morning around 7 am. Once he woke up, he asked Pearl to go back into the tattoo. Alex then decided to learn about formations about an hour longer before he logged out of the game.

He freshened up and went out to have his meal. Hannah was out already as well.

"Hey, Alex. Come sit. I need to talk to you about something," she said.

"Oh, what is it?" she asked.

"You see, I was thinking of getting a car for ourselves and I am going to go sign up for some driving lessons. Do you want to come to learn as well?" Hannah asked.

Alex thought for a moment and remembered he didn\'t have anything to do for the next month inside the game. "What time is it at?" he asked.

"From 4 pm to 6 pm. It\'s at a driving range outside the city," Hannah said.

"Sure, count me in then," Alex replied.

After having their breakfast, they left the house and walked out to the front to meet Sarah and Emily who were waiting for them in Sarah\'s car.

"Took you guys long enough. Come quick, or we\'ll be late," Sarah said.

"Geez, it\'s only half-past 10. We still have 30 minutes," Hannah said as she got into the car.

Alex got into the car as well and greeted the two girls.

"I heard you guys accepted our offer. When do you plan on moving in?" Alex asked.

"Upcoming… Saturday maybe? Sunday?" Sarah gave some guesses.

"It will be Sunday," Emily said. "After our other two roommates leave on Saturday, we will then take care of the rest of the things and move in on Sunday," Emily said.

"Good! Good!" Hannah said.

They quickly reached the school and got off. Each of them made their way to their own classes.

"Alex, I will message you around 3 pm. We will have to go together to sign up," Hannah said.

"Sure, sister," Alex said and went to his classes. It felt weird for him to go back to classes after so many days of holidays. Even the friends he had made in his classes were showing the same symptoms.

He looked around his class in surprise. There were barely 30 people in a class that should have had 100 people in it. It seemed people didn\'t plan on returning for a while.

The professor walked in and sighed when she saw the class, but still taught what she had come to teach. After all 3 of his classes were done, Alex walked out.

His phone vibrated with Hannah\'s message and he quickly found her on the west gate of the university. They got into a cab and went out of the city to the driving range to learn.

For the next 2 hours, they registered themselves and took a small lesson about the various things they needed to learn before they even got into a car.

After 2 hours had passed, both Hannah and Alex went to a small restaurant to eat some food and caught a cab back home.

"I don\'t need to make anything for today right?" Hannah asked.

"I doubt so. I\'m full right now. Given that I will spend the next 12 hours in the capsule, I probably won\'t even need to eat tomorrow morning," Alex said.

"Very well then. I will see you tomorrow. Good Night," Hannah said and went to her room.

"Good Night sister."

Alex went back to his room and logged back into the game.

Inside the game, he once again remembered he had literally nothing to do. "Urghh… I want to make some pills," Alex thought.

However, there was no fire in here to help him at all, and he himself couldn\'t make fires either. There was no tree around him either. For some reason, the inside of the barrier was an open space.

Alex even wondered if there were more than just two formations used here. Once could be a formation that expanded the size of where he was.

He had an idea. He could use some of the wooden boxes and rub them together to make a fire. That would totally work. But then, he saw the problem with that.

"I can\'t sustain the fire at all. I will need to keep adding boxes to keep the fire going. Keeping it lit with Qi is just not a viable option. I will need to worry about the fire more than I do about the pills," Alex thought.

"Sigh, are there other ways to make fires?" he wondered. It was then he remembered something. Something he hadn\'t interacted with for a long time.

"Hmm… that could work."
