Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 1874 Henry's face instantly darkened. Eric tried to cover for it. "He's probably in a confused state. His mind can't distinguish logic from reality, and that's likely why he said that." Henry frowned. "Still, calling me an idiot? That's crossing the line. Eric shook his head. "A truly hypnotized mind doesn't know how to insult. If he said that, there must be some reason behind it." Henry exploded.

"So what, you're saying he had reason to call me an idiot?" Eric's expression twitched as he tried to explain, "From our perspective, of course, it doesn't make sense, but his mind has entered a chaotic state. Whatever you ask him and whatever he answers no longer follows normal human thought patterns." Henry's expression softened slightly. "I get it... You're saying he can no longer tell what he's actually saying!

Even though he called me an idiot, he might actually be saying I'm mighty and unyielding, absolutely domineering, right?" Eric did not want to respond. ---- Meanwhile, Andrew rolled his eyes silently. He thought the bastard was quite a narcissist. "You're an idiot!" He opened his mouth and cursed again. This time, Henry was unfazed and laughed. "See, he's saying I'm absolutely domineering again! Very good! Keep increasing the hypnosis. | want complete control over his mind!

Once this little punk is under my control, he'll be like a sharp blade in my hands!" Eric replied calmly, "Tomorrow, you can take him out for a test run. Henry nodded. "Perfect." Finally, Andrew waited until the two degenerates left the room. That night, Eric once again tried to hypnotize him. But this time, as soon as Phantom Mirage's cold mental haze swept in, Andrew ignited Inferno Strike. His energy core roared like a bonfire, instantly burning away the chill.

Eric collapsed in sweat and exhaustion, thinking the session had worked. Then, he went off to rest. Andrew stood up like nothing had happened, laughing quietly to himself. Eric's hypnosis barely did anything to him now. Inferno Strike really was extraordinary. ---- Without wasting time, he spent the entire night in deep training The technique had three stages: Flame Surge, Volcano Smash, and Tides of Hellfire.

Without even realizing it, Andrew mastered the first stage, Flame Surge, in one smooth breakthrough. If Jerome had witnessed it, he would probably have been amazed and dumbfounded. The hardest part about Heavenly-tier martial arts techniques was mastering them. Even if someone was lucky enough to obtain one, learning it was another story. Therefore, even if they obtained Heavenly-tier techniques by chance, many martial artists could not just become famous overnight and shake the martial world.

That was pure fantasy. This was why some stayed hidden for 20 or even 30 years before finally exploding onto the scene and shocking the martial world These techniques were powerful, but mastering them was like climbing through fire. Yet Andrew easily mastered the first stage in a short time. This could only be because he truly was a prodigy, but there were deeper reasons. ---- Andrew had already practiced the Heavenly-tier technique Dragon-Slaying Palm, which had laid a solid foundation.

Not to mention, Andrew had once stood at the top. His current limitations were due to sealed cultivation, not sealed talent. Mastering this first level of Flame Surge came so naturally to Andrew that even he was impressed with himself. Andrew grinned and thought, 'So | really am that guy!" Before he knew it, dawn had already arrived. Even after an entire night of training, he did not feel tired at all.
