The Ultimate Fire Master of Avatar

Chapter 48 The Hasty Fire Master

"Controlling calories? You thought of that so quickly?"

After their playful antics, Ai Luo heated the tea himself, but lost all interest in drinking it, sighing repeatedly.

Just as Kahn had predicted, Airo also had considerable skill in this area, but the gap between him and Kahn seemed obvious.

He had always known that Kahn was a genius, but Kahn had previously only been learning existing knowledge, while now he had to start discovering, thinking and creating on his own. The difficulty and difference between the two were incomparable.

But in this respect, Kahn still demonstrated extraordinary talent!

If Kahn could hear Elo's thoughts, he would probably feel embarrassed, since there was nothing original in these things; it was just that he had seen enough of what he had in his previous life.

This just goes to show the advantages of being a time traveler, doesn't it?

Regardless, Kahn was brimming with a sense of accomplishment after taking a significant step forward. Speaking of his earlier move of freezing the tea, he proudly said:

"I've already named this move: 'Zero Point Breakthrough of Dying Will - First Generation'!"

"What?"

For a moment, Ai Luo doubted whether there was something wrong with her hearing.

Looking at the smug-looking Kahn, he couldn't figure out how he came up with such an abstract name, and even added "first generation" after the move name. What was the point?

Kahn gave a mysterious smile, indicating that only those who shared his ideals could understand the meaning of the name.

All Ai Luo can say to this is:

Okay, whatever makes you happy.

At the same time, Kahn also asked Elo for some advice. He felt that developing these moves was going incredibly smoothly, as if there were no obstacles at all, which made him feel that something was wrong.

"."

Listen to this, is this even human language?

Hearing such a Versailles-like question, Airo was somewhat numb, but Kahn had been utterly inhumane before, so he quickly adapted and began to think seriously:

"Indeed, and at that speed."

He understood the principle of that move, the original version, after just one look. It was simply using magic to extract the heat from the tea, but the speed at which it was extracted was simply outrageous, indirectly revealing Kahn's terrifying control over Qi.

Furthermore, considering that Kahn had previously stated he also possessed perfect control over his own body, and taking this information into account, he had a rough idea in mind and said to Kahn:

"This may be because your spirit is stronger than that of ordinary people."

"[Spirit], spiritual energy?"

Kahn asked instinctively, "Do you mean the energy within me?"

"No, this 'spirit' means consciousness and soul."

Airo explained.

Life in this world is composed of two parts: spirit and flesh, namely soul and body, while qi is the product of their combination.

Ailo speculated that for some unknown reason, Kahn's soul was stronger than that of ordinary people, and thanks to this powerful soul, Kahn had a control over his body and qi that far exceeded that of ordinary people.

I've learned another new point.

While marveling at Aurora's extensive knowledge, Kahn quickly adapted to this setting, because with the concept of reincarnation of the Avatar already established, the existence of the soul seemed quite normal in this light.

He could even deduce from this why his "spirit" was stronger than that of ordinary people.

It must be because his soul merged with the original owner's, which also explains why he was able to inherit the original owner's memories.

Yes, that makes perfect sense.

As he thought of this, he unconsciously recalled Avatar.

If someone like him, whose souls were simply fused together, could have such amazing talent, then how terrifying must a soul like the Avatar, which has undergone hundreds of reincarnations, be? It might even have reached a level that he could not even imagine!

While Kahn was letting his imagination run wild, Elo had another guess in mind:

Since Kahn's soul is exceptionally powerful, he might possess some other unique talents besides fire manipulation.

He kept this guess to himself, waiting for Kahn to show his true colors. Otherwise, if he voiced his opinion prematurely but his hopes were dashed, it might have some negative consequences.

So he said something to Kahn out of the blue:

"You might want to try meditating more often recently; it might have unexpected benefits."

Are you starting to play riddles again?

Kahn pretended not to hear, but he kept it in mind. He figured that Elo wouldn't betray him, so it wouldn't hurt to meditate on it for a while.

After explaining the situation, the two returned the topic to the ability to control calories.

Kahn divided his abilities into three main categories: generating heat and imbuing it into other things, controlling the direction of heat, and extracting heat from other things. The effects of these abilities are extremely powerful.

For example, rapidly injecting a large amount of heat into a tree will cause the water inside the tree to expand instantly and then explode; the same thing can happen to a human body.

Controlling the direction of heat energy allows for the coexistence of hot and cold in an object; at the boundary of temperature difference, the object will be easily distorted and damaged.

As for extracting heat energy, Kahn has already demonstrated that its effects on living organisms are equally terrifying.

Although ordinary fire masters are not capable of wielding this ability to such an extent, in Kahn's hands, it is a terrifying ability no matter how you look at it.

However, Elo quickly poured cold water on his enthusiasm. He conjured a flame in his hand, allowing Kahn to draw out its heat, but the result was far less effective.

Kahn had envisioned extinguishing the flames, but the actual effect was merely to shrink them slightly, which was somewhat disappointing.

Airo revealed the answer with a smile:

"[Qi], that's the biggest reason."

Although all things have a spirit, the air in substances like water and stones in nature is practically zero, and most people cannot detect it. Flowers, plants, and trees may be a little better, but it is still negligible.

However, the presence of qi is quite clear in animals, especially humans.

Although ordinary people who are not masters cannot make good use of ki, the existence of ki itself will spontaneously prevent external enemies. Unless Kahn has a special physique or his ki can have an overwhelming effect on others, this is the effect that is presented.

However, Kahn countered:

"But it worked quite well for me when I used it on myself, didn't it?"

He had previously tried to convert the extracted heat energy back into qi to nourish himself, perhaps by performing a technique like the Northern Darkness Divine Art or the Star Absorbing Technique, but he failed. The heat energy could indeed be absorbed into his body, but it could not be converted back into qi.

"You still dare to experiment on your own body?!"

Airo's eyes widened as he rebuked Kahn for his reckless actions, then explained, with a hint of warning:

"That's because the energy you use to control your body comes from within yourself, just like going home; of course your body won't resist."

Kahn was stunned. Indeed, it made sense and was well-founded.

So this ability actually weakens the attack on the enemy by three-tenths, while dealing full damage to oneself?

Good guy!

That's what they say, but even with some of the weaknesses, its capabilities and functions in various aspects are still very powerful, and he is already quite satisfied.

Just then, Airo suddenly exclaimed:

"Actually, at this level, you can already be called a master of fire control."

Kahn: "?"
