Chapter 71
The tower seemed magical, but the disciples knew that it would take a long time until they would visit it. The Lightning Tower was something for disciples who were about to break through into the Energy Gathering Realm.

“By the way,” said Gorn. “Every day, in the central plaza, a higher ranking disciple is lecturing on the nature of lightning and the cultivation world, as a whole. You might want to attend, though you have to pay money to listen.”

‘Money, again’ thought the disciples and sighed. It seemed like everything in the Lightning Guild was centered around money.

“Anyway,” continued Gorn. “I am going to leave you guys to it. Welcome to your new home,” he said with a smile to the disciples. “Gravis, follow me,” he commanded as he started walking to the guild. Gravis simply followed.

“The best way to manage your time, right now, is to stay in your house and read the Lightning Codex. Reread it many times until you know it by heart. When you have mastered the Codex, you should go to the Lightning Tower. When you know the Lightning Codex by heart, you will automatically know what to do,” Gorn explained patiently.

Gravis nodded while he followed. This seemed like the best way to proceed. “Do I need to pay money to access the Lightning Tower?” asked Gravis.

Gorn just laughed. “Of course!” he said, and Gravis only sighed. “The price depends on which level you want to cultivate. We have four different levels in the Lightning Tower. The higher you go, the less Life Energy the lightning possesses. You’ll understand what that means when you read the Codex.”
