Chapter 126 – Bond of a Legacy

*crack*

*crack crack*

Sounds of bones breaking reverberated around the barren crater, as a smoky shadow continued to silently guard the body of a human boy.

This brat is lucky that his consciousness is being suppressed, or he would have died ten times over with these rapid breakthroughs.

Ezkael mused, his initial shock had already turned into acceptance. He was simply too used to the unusual situations that seemed to constantly revolve around his student.

However, he was right about the danger of rapidly breaking through multiple levels, especially at the Vajra stage where the elementalist was primarily cultivating his essence to fuse with his physical body.

Just imagining the pain of continuously having his bones broken and healed, made Ezkael shudder in discomfort. Thankfully, Calron’s consciousness was being shielded so the boy did not have to go through that pain.

“It seems to slowing down…”

Ezakel whispered, noticing the essence surge in Calron’s body gradually receding back to normal.

“Raizel… this descendent of yours is truly a monster. I believe that he will soon surpass the limits of the Mortal realm and return your clan back to the Divine realm.”

…………………………

“This feels too unreal.”

Calron stated in a disbelieving tone, stunned by how much his elemental core had transformed.

Compared to the previous amount of essence he could store; it was like comparing a sunflower seed to a small-sized melon. Since Calron’s consciousness was still being suppressed, he could not observe the changes in his physical body but if could, it would be incomparable to the shock he felt by the change in his elemental core.

Sssa saa

A quiet and almost inaudible hiss sounded out in Calron’s mind.

His curiosity piqued by the sound, Calron sent his consciousness towards the direction of the quiet hiss, and arrived exactly towards his… elemental core.

However, this time, there was an illusion of a ghostly snake swimming inside his core. The snake appeared to be flickering in and out of existence, as if hadn’t completely entered the real world yet.

Noticing Calron’s presence, the tiny snake let out a cheerful hiss and its body abruptly dissipated into the essence within the core.

“What in the heavens was that?”

Calron muttered, not having a clue about what that mysterious snake was and how it appeared within his core.

Why do I keep meeting these weird and suspicious people…

Calron sighed, realizing that he had been encountering too many weirdos for a while now.

“Still, that small fragment of Valis’ soul helped me reach the eighth rank of Vajra stage. I guess I should at least try to fulfil his last request. I think it’s time to return back, I can now start to feel the soul connection between Teacher and me.”

With the absence of the golden dragon’s soul, the suppression placed on his consciousness was beginning to be alleviated and his physical senses resuming their function.

………………..

“Teacher!”

Calron shouted in joy, seeing the smoky body of Ezkael standing guard over him.

“Tch, you sure took your time, boy! If not for the massive amounts of essence fluctuation around you, the surrounding beasts would have already arrived here to trample all over you.”

Ezkael sulkily replied, but he was inwardly glad that Calron was back to normal.
