Eventually, Calina decided to check on Roan's cultivation, only to be taken aback as she exclaimed, "Wait! Middle Nascent Soul Realm?! How the hell did you cultivate so fast?!"

"Simple. Rean and I had a lot of Spiritual Energy back in the Soul Rulers' headquarters." Roan then changed the topic as he said, "Anyways, forget about me. Let me take a look at your training routine. After so long, you probably made a few changes by yourself, right?"

Calina was still shocked by Roan's cultivation, so she more or less handed her routine while thinking about the injustice from the twins' cultivation speed. 'What was all my effort for? I feel like a turtle when I look at him.'

Roan quickly checked it with his Spiritual Sense before saying, "Hmm...not too bad. You added a few new skills to your repertoire. What is this Prison Vortex?"

Calina felt even worse after seeing that Roan didn't think anything about his improvement. Nevertheless, she quickly recovered as she already understood that the twins were anything but normal. With that, she replied, "Prison Vortex is similar to my Water Prison. However, I don't try to capture anyone with it. Instead, I keep myself inside it. It acts as a defense field made with Water Element and Yin Energy."

Roan narrowed his eyes after listening to her explanation, saying, "But it would make your mobility very poor."

However, Calina smiled when she heard that as Water Element gathered around her. Yin Energy also fused with the water as an orb of water spun around Calina. The water inside truly acted like a vortex, rotating at very high speeds. However, unlike Water Prison, Prison Vortex was very small, spreading out no more than 3 meters away from Calina.

Soon after, Calina used her own movement technique and charged at Roan. It only took a moment before Calina stopped right in front of Roan, just before he was hit by the Prison Vortex. Much to Roan's surprise, her speed wasn't any slower than any average Peak Stage Core and Soul Fusion Realm cultivator. On top of that, Roan could tell that she wasn't moving as fast as she could. "I see...so you compressed the vortex as much as possible while increasing its spin so that you could keep your movement speed while moving it together."

Calina nodded as the Prison Vortex disappeared and the water fell on the ground. "Exactly. At the moment, a length of three meters around me is my limit while not losing any speed. In any case, it works very well as defense. Just so you know, there was a time where I got surrounded and was forced to run away. I received attacks from everywhere and what kept me alive was this skill."

Calina then lifted a finger before continuing, "There's one more advantage I have with this skill of mine."

However, Roan already understood what it was before Calina could even say it, saying, "The Spiritual and Yin Energies inside act as a sensor for you. That being said, anything that touches it will immediately be felt by you. Against enemies who can hide their presence from Spiritual Senses, this is definitely a very helpful skill."

"Sigh...you really are no fun. Couldn't you have waited for me to say that?" Calina lost her drive right there and then.

Roan didn't care, though. "Anyways, since you're here, I'll put you on Rafin's group."

"Rafin? Who's that?" Calina didn't know about the Freedom Sect yet, so it was normal for her to ask about it.

Rafin was Malo's aide, one of the few boys in the Freedom Sect. He was very good at scouting and moving silently. His speed was also top-notch in the Freedom Sect, with Malo even recognized it.

Of course, Calina also became puzzled about what this Freedom Sect was about. With that, Roan explained how they succeeded in rescuing all the kids in the Soul Rulers' hands. He also talked about Celis, whose actions were why the planet was mostly covered in snow back then. Of course, he told her that Celis was on their side now...just a 'little bit' weaker than before.

Roan then talked about how they found out that all the kids with high Soul Purity also had very high cultivation aptitudes, which shocked Calina. After all, hearing that their Freedom Sect had 163 Purple Color Aptitude members was not something she could have dreamt of back in Sunkan. Even her Sasamil Empire didn't have that many Purple Color Aptitudes. Let alone having 957 members with Red Color Aptitude.

Last but not least, he told everything that happened until they reached the Demon Beast Continent and how they left it for Malo and everyone else to decide what to do. Naturally, that was the moment the Freedom Sect was created. He even pointed out at the big airship outside, which the sect members who came to participate in the war used to arrive here.

"To think that so many things happened while we were separated." Calina looked at Frin beside Roan before using a Spiritual Sense Message, asking, 'Why would you use an airship to go to the Demon Beast Continent with them? Wouldn't it be easier and safer to use the Dimensional Realm? After all, they all know about it since they have been there during the escape from the Soul Rulers' headquarters.'

Roan shook his head and explained the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm's new limitations through a Spiritual Sense Message. 'That being said, you can't think about yourself to be safe just because you're close to me, understood?'

'Such a thing happened?' Calina was obviously surprised by that as well. However, she had to admit those abilities were very overpowered. 'Well, it just means you guys are a little bit more like the rest of us, so it makes me a little happier.'

Roan nodded, responding, 'That's true.'

Suddenly, another demon beast arrived, looking at Roan before saying, "Commander Roan, Rafin sent a message saying that there are a few strange movements on the Zasfins' side."

Roan pondered over it for a bit and asked, "Was it in the Calau Swamp Region?"

The demon beast immediately nodded in response. "Yes."

Roan nodded as he replied, "Very well. Tell the whole army on that side to retreat."
