Chapter 157 – Stranger Under Three Suns
“Big brother, did you wake up yet?”
Roran called out, as he slowly opened the door to Calron’s room.
The sound of thunder abruptly rushed into Roran’s ears when the door opened, and he saw bolts of lightning wildly revolving around Calron like a cocoon.
How long has he been cultivating?
Roran inwardly thought, as he found a chair next to Calron’s bed and patiently waited for his brother to finish cultivating. It was already early morning so Calron must have been continuously cultivating since last night.
………………………..
Within Calron’s conscious, a discussion was currently taking place.
“Teacher, why have you been ignoring me all this time?”
Calron asked with slight trepidation.
“Sorry about that, kid, but my soul is going through a transformation phase so I won’t be around for a while.”
Ezkael stated in a comforting tone.
“Transformation phase? What do you mean?”
Calron inquired, his curiosity piqued by his Teacher’s words.
“Well, I have recovered enough of my strength that I don’t need to be in my soul form and can now re-gain my physical appearance. The problem is that I need to isolate myself to concentrate, so I won’t be able to communicate with you for a long time.”
Ezkael answered wryly.
“That’s great news! I can finally see Teacher’s real appearance.”
Calron chuckled, his mind at ease.
“By the way, Teacher, I wanted to ask you about something. Do you know anything about the Dark Psylockers?”
This spontaneous thought came to Calron mid-discussion, and he decided to ask his Teacher about it.
“Dark Psylockers? Hmm…. I remember that there used to exist a race with that name in the Divine Realm, but I have never encountered any of them. All I know about them is that their people were said to be some of the most fearsome cultivators of the mind and soul. Their inate mental abilities allowed them to read the mind of any person within the same cultivation stage, and also forcefully shatter an enemy’s mind if they had a lower cultivation than them. Why are you asking about this now?”
Ezkael questioned.
“Nothing, I just heard the name and was wondering if you knew anything about it.”
Calron quickly stated. He was not sure whether or not he wanted his Teacher to know that he practiced the Dark Psylocker’s powers and that the Divine Perception was also a part of it.
“Calron… take care of yourself, child.”
Ezkael brushed off the topic of the Dark Psylockers, and bid Calron a warm farewell.
“You too, Teacher. I hope to see your real body soon in a few months.”
Calron wished, and gradually the presence of Ezkael withdrew from his mind.
*shua*
Calron finally opened his eyes and saw the bolts of lightning crackling all around him.
I am getting close to breaking into the ninth rank.
Calron thought while observing his elemental core.
“Big brother!”
Roran exclaimed, seeing that Calron had opened his eyes.
“Roran, how long have you been here?”
Calron smiled at the sight of his brother, and withdrew the surrounding lightning back into his body.
