New Age Of Summoners

"That's right! I want you to create a portal to the greater summoner world."

As soon as he heard Ajax's words, Ren nodded his head.

"How? I don't have the power to make the portals and my elemental spirit is not powerful….."

"I know. But, in the future, when you and your elemental spirit enter the King realm, I am very sure your elemental spirit will gain that kind of ability."

Before Ajax could finish his words, Ren interrupted his words and informed, "I can wait until you become a King realm cultivator."

"Sure. I will try my best to help you then."

Since there were no dangers in creating a portal, Ajax heaved a sigh of relief and agreed to help the masked summoner.

"In turn, I will provide more details on how to create a portal to my world and I will take you along with me if you want as it will be very helpful to meet other summoners for a young man like you."

"For now, we have to make a seal that you will try your best  in helping me create a portal to the greater summoner world."

While saying his words, Ren took out a small scroll and asked Ajax to drop his blood.

"Is this required?"

However, Ajax didn't drop his blood; instead, he asked the masked man with a bitter look on his face.

"Yes."

The masked man nodded his head and because of the mask, Ajax was unable to see any expression on his face; however, he was sure that the masked man was not happy when he asked about it.

'System, check it.'

Since he still has some doubts regarding the masked man, Ajax wanted to know whether what the masked man said was there on the scroll or was it something else.

With the help of the system's 'Pay to know' feature, Ajax got to know what the seal is about.

And only after knowing that the seal is the same as the words Ren had said, Ajax dropped his blood.

After that, Ren looked at his sun and moon elemental spirit before saying, "My elemental spirit will watch you and the moment you enter the king realm, it will inform me."

After saying those words, Ren decided to leave because he had to recover from his injuries.

'Sigh'

Ajax shook his head

"Wait for a second."

Even though Ajax didn't want to stop Ren, he wanted to ask some questions. So, he asked Ren to stop.

"What is it?"

Ren was calm and cool after the seal was done. So, he calmly asked Ajax what he wanted.

"How do you know I have a space elemental spirit?"

This was the question that was killing Ajax for a while now. So, he mustered his courage and asked about it.

"I looked into your spirit consciousness earlier."

Ren calmly replied to Ajax's question which made Ajax shocked.

"What? How is it possible?"

Ajax unconsciously asked with the shocked expression on his face.

"Because I can see."

Ren shrugged his hands and continued to say, "Actually, I wanted to help you form a contract with a space elemental spirit when I first sensed you in this world."

"From that time onwards, my elemental spirit was keeping tabs on you and your elemental spirits; however, in this third visit of yours, you already formed an official contract with a space elemental spirit. So, I decided to ask you a favour."

Ren explained everything about how his elemental spirit keeping an eye on him.

'So, it is like that. I am being watched from my first visit to the five elemental world. Looks like he is more powerful than a king realm cultivator.'

After hearing Ren's words, Ajax understood that the masked man was more powerful than he thought.

'System, is your presence also known by him?'

Without wasting any time, Ajax asked the system to get a clarification.

'Ding,

The system's presence will be not known by anyone except for higher realm beings.

'Phew'

Ajax heaved a sigh of relief; however, he was frowned when heard 'Higher realm beings' and said to the system, 'Who are they?'

'Ding,

The host needs to enter the king realm to know them. Please be patient and work hard to increase your cultivation.

'Sigh...once again my strength is hindering me from knowing about something good.'

Ajax sighed as he shook his head.

"By the way, can you explain to me about the cultivation realms after the King realm?"

Since the system's presence is not known to Ren, Ajax heaved a sigh of relief and asked another important question.

He was curious about the cultivation realms after the king realm and since Ren was the cultivator of a king realm or beyond that, he asked him.

"Haha….it looks like everyone is just like me back then...curious about the realms after the king realm."

When he heard Ajax's question, Ren started laughing as he continued saying, "You are only a general realm cultivator but you want to know about the realms beyond the King realm?"

"Yes."

Even though Ajax could sense the mockery in Ren's tone, he still nodded his head.

"Thick-skinned. That is one of the requirements for a summoner. Nice,  but I will only talk about the king realm and beyond that realm when you learn a law. Did you understand that?"

Ren agreed to explain about the realms beyond the king realm; however, he put a condition.

'Sigh...if learning law is that easy, there would have been many king realm cultivators in both the five elemental world and the purple stone world.'

Ajax sighed when he heard the condition but still nodded his head.

"Excellent...I will take my leave then."

Actually, learning about the realms beyond the King realm will not do any good to a cultivator who was still in the general realm.

Ren knew it would be years before Ajax could learn a 'law'. So, he put the condition.

In his view, as long as a cultivator learns a law, he will not be burdened by the cultivation journey that starts from the king realm.

"Sumo, let's go."

As soon as he finished his words, Ren left with his elemental spirit; however, Ajax knew that the dual elemental spirit was still keeping an eye on him and his contracted spirit beasts.

"Kid, I have very high hopes on you. So, don't disappoint me."

Before Ken and his elemental spirit disappeared, those words resounded in the entire area making Ajax shake his head.

'Aargh'

"Master, are you alright?"

Just as Ren left from that place, Ajax groaned in pain for some unknown reason making his contracted spirit beasts worry.

"I am alright."

Ajax said those words; however, he looked weak and at the same time he was thinking about the reason why his dantian was in pain.

'What is happening?'

After saying those words, he immediately checked on his dantian and there was a black coloured vine completely wrapped itself on his spirit consciousness.
