Two months passed quietly.
To everyone in the household, Krishak appeared to be an unusually intelligent child who loved to train and spend time with his little sister.
But beneath that innocent exterior, his transformation was proceeding steadily.
Every night, he filtered the surrounding spiritual energy, selecting only the purest strands to temper his body.
His cultivation remained at the peak of the Martial Apprentice Realm, yet his foundation had become so stable that even experienced cultivators would be stunned if they could inspect him.
His skin was tougher than leather.
His muscles were flexible yet powerful.
His bones were dense and resilient.
Most importantly, there was not a single flaw in his body.Despite his secret cultivation, Krishak did not neglect his family.
Each morning, he trained with Veer in the courtyard.
His father taught him basic stances, breathing techniques, and simple combat movements.
Krishak intentionally held back, displaying only enough talent to appear extraordinary but believable.
Even so, Veer was constantly astonished.
"My son," he declared proudly one afternoon, "will become one of the strongest Hunters on Earth!"
Ama smiled from the veranda."Or perhaps he'll become a Summoner like me."
Luna, sitting beside her, raised her tiny fist.
"Bwo-bwo strongest!"
Krishak laughed and ruffled his sister's hair.
That night, Krishak sat by the window, gazing at the stars.
Earth's spiritual energy was far weaker than that of the Heavenly Universe.
Even though he absorbed only the purest energy, the total amount available was limited.
At his current pace, reaching the Martial Warrior Realm would take several more months.
For ordinary cultivators, such slow progress would be unacceptable.
For Krishak, it was ideal.
He cared more about perfection than speed.Still, he knew that Earth held hidden opportunities.
The spiritual surge that transformed the planet had created many unknown mysteries.
Ancient ruins, mutated Beasts, and unusual treasures would inevitably appear.
When the time came, he intended to use them.
As Krishak cultivated, he suddenly felt a faint resonance deep within his soul. It was subtle, almost imperceptible. Yet he recognized it instantly.
His sealed Celestial body.
Somewhere far beyond Earth, the connection still existed.
The silver cord linking his reincarnated soul to his original body had not been completely severed.
Krishak's eyes narrowed.The connection was extremely weak, but it remained intact.
That meant his original body was still safe.
And if he grew strong enough in this life, he might eventually reclaim it.
Krishak quickly suppressed his excitement.
That was a matter for the distant future.
For now, he needed to focus on the present.
The next evening, the family gathered for dinner.
Veer was in unusually high spirits.
"Tomorrow," he announced, "I'll be leaving on a hunting expedition for several days."
Ama nodded calmly, though concern flickered in her eyes. "Be careful."
Veer grinned, "When have I ever failed?"
Luna clapped her hands.
"Papa strong!"
Krishak looked at his father thoughtfully.
Though Veer was powerful by Earth's standards, Krishak knew that even the strongest Hunters faced danger.
"I'll grow stronger quickly," he thought. "Strong enough to protect them all."
Late that night, Krishak resumed his cultivation.
After months of careful tempering, he could feel his body approaching a critical point.
He was ready to break through.
But Krishak did not rush.
He continued refining his body, polishing every imperfection.
He would advance only when his foundation was absolutely flawless.
As spiritual energy flowed through his meridians, Krishak's expression remained calm.
The path ahead was long.Yet with each passing day, he was drawing closer to the strength he once possessed.
And this time, his foundation would be stronger than ever before.
