It's Fine To Reincarnate To A Flame

The sun rose, full of vitality.

Towering ancient trees stood in a gloomy forest. Their branches were full of luxuriant leaves that blocked the sunlight.

"F**k! Not only did I transmigrate, but I became a flame?" A stupefied voice was heard from under an ancient tree.

The only thing there was a small flame—the size of a fist—quietly burning on a piece of limestone.

Tang Sen was shocked. He was unable to accept it. Transmigrating was bad enough, but to become a flame? What could a flame do?

If it rained, he would be extinguished. He wasn't sure if he would survive if that happened. In a nutshell, he was pathetic. Tang Sen was depressed beyond words.

"Forget it, let's see if I can move." He felt for his body and willed it to move forward. He immediately felt his body begin to move.

He soon left the piece of limestone and floated in the air.

Tang Sen suddenly felt that it wasn't that bad to become a flame. He could fly, at least. It was a very strange feeling. His body was light, and being afloat felt nice. After that, he had a stupendous time floating about among the ancient trees. "This is quite fun."

After a while, Tang Sen got tired. He stopped on a withered blade of grass.

Puff!

The grass immediately burst into flames. In just a few seconds, it had been reduced to ashes.

A disembodied voice suddenly rang in his mind. "Ding! Congratulations to the host for burning a blade of withered grass. Gained 1 Energy Point."

At the same time, a transparent panel appeared before his eyes.

'Eh!' Tang Sen was startled at first, then he was ecstatic. "Is this a system? A system is essential to every transmigrator. I didn't really expect it to exist."

He felt more at ease. He had some concerns and fears earlier, but now they were gone. With the system, he no longer had to worry that he would not be able to embark on his journey to the peak of his human—fiery life…

"Let's take a look at the functions of the system first." In his mind, Tang Sen tentatively called out, "Hello, System?"

"Hello, Respected Host. The Super Flame Evolution System is at your service."

"Well, what functions do you have?" Tang Sen asked expectantly.

"This system allows the host to evolve and become stronger. As long as the host burns any object, he will gain energy points. The energy points can strengthen the host's body until it evolves into a more advanced flame."

"Isn't this like killing monsters to level?" Tang Sen was taken aback for a moment, then he was delighted. "However, I like it a lot!"

He looked at the attributes displayed on the panel the system projected.

Super Flame Evolution System:

Host: Tang Sen

Race: Common Flame

Intensity: Level 0

Energy point: 1

Skill: None

Divine Skill: None

…

After looking at the attributes, Tang Sen felt enthusiastic. He looked at the large patch of withered grass around him, his eyes aflame with passion. 'What is there to say? I just have to burn it!'

Tang Sen plunged into the withered grass and lit up a large area in an instant.

Puff!

The flames burned and crackled nonstop.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for burning a blade of withered grass. Gained 1 Energy Point."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for burning a blade of withered grass. Gained 1 Energy Point."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for burning a branch. Gained 3 Energy Points."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for burning a beetle. Gained 5 Energy Points."

…

A large number of insects were hidden in the withered grass. As the fire grew, they were all burned to ashes.

After a while, Tang Sen had burnt all the withered grass nearby and gained 332 Energy Points.

Under an ancient tree, a cluster of flames strangely stayed suspended in mid-air.

"System, how many Energy Points am I short of to evolve?"

"The host needs 1,000 energy points for the first evolution. Every time thereafter, the Energy Point requirement will increase by a hundredfold."

Tang Sen looked at his Energy Points. He was far from it. "Continue!"

He targeted a small tree. This was a young tree, which had a trunk as thick as an arm.

Since it grew under the other old, towering trees' shade, this little tree was unable to absorb enough sunlight to thrive. Most of its tree trunk was dry and cracked already.

Tang Sen felt that he should be able to set it afire. With that thought in his mind, Tang Sen willed his body over to the small tree without hesitation. He immediately landed on one of the small tree's branches.

Flames wrapped themselves around the branches in an instant and began to burn.

After the branches had finished burning, Tang Sen prepared to burn the tree trunk.

At this moment, a strange noise was heard in the distance. The sound approached him from far away.

Tang Sen looked and saw a three-meter-tall black bear rampaging. The rocks and trees along its path shattered as it passed. Then, the black bear suddenly stopped.

It had seen Tang Sen.

The ball of fire floating in mid-air had aroused the black bear's curiosity. The black bear then rushed towards Tang Sen. It was about to swing its giant paw down on Tang Sen.

"Damn!" Tang Sen was dumbfounded for a while. 'I didn't even move. Are you going to put me out?'

Tang Sen hurriedly moved to avoid the black bear's paw. If he was smashed by the paw, it would be the end for him.

Unexpectedly, the black bear became even more interested when he saw Tang Sen move. It kept rushing towards him. If Tang Sen hadn't been agile, he would have been trampled on and put out.

"Are you done yet? I've given you enough chances!" After getting chased after by the black bear incessantly, Tang Sen was angry. 'Just because I didn't flare up doesn't mean I can be taken lightly!'

Tang Sen directly floated towards the black bear.

While the black bear was distracted, Tang Sen landed on the black bear.

Sizzle!

The flame—which was originally only the size of a fist—instantly flared when it touched the black bear's fur. Within the time it took for a few breaths, one of the black bear's arms was covered in flames.

Only then did the black bear react. It roared and became more agitated and violent. It slapped at the flames with its other arm, trying to extinguish it.

Pain!

Pain that cut to the bone!

After the black bear put out some of the fire, Tang Sen felt pain. Although he didn't know how a flame could feel pain, he immediately realized that he would die if all the flames were put out by the black bear.

He did not want to die.

'Burn! Burn for me!' Tang Sen made a determined effort to cover more of the black bear's body with his body.

"System, strengthen me!"

The branches he burned just now allowed him to gain dozens of Energy Points. Including the points he had, he now had nearly 400 Energy Points. Although that was not enough for him to evolve, he could strengthen himself with them.

Evolution increased the level of a flame while strengthening increased the upper limit of each level. Although he was just a common flame, he had no problem dealing with an ordinary black bear.

Boom!

In an instant, a force surged from the flames' depths.

The fire—which was about to be extinguished by the black bear—suddenly burned with new life. The raging fire covered the entire black bear.

Roar!

The black bear wailed forlornly. It couldn't tolerate the pain any longer and fell to the ground, rolling around. However, that did not help.

Within an hour, Tang Sen had burnt the black bear's entire body into ashes. Tang Sen's current body was now the size of a basketball.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for burning a black bear. Gained 949 Energy Points."

Tang Sen was now very excited. Burning just one black bear had provided him with nearly 1,000 Energy Points. Just a little more, and he would be able to activate the first evolution.

He was now located next to a cave. The black bear had hurriedly rushed to it earlier, obviously planning to enter the cave.

"Could there be a treasure in the cave?"
