Celestial Bloodline - Chapter 626: Good job on coming this far

Everyone around Kyle nodded. Except for Asher, the others weren’t overly surprised after hearing his current rank. They were already expecting it, even speculating that he might reach the supreme rank. Also, they had become somewhat immune to all the surprises the silver-haired human could present to them.

Even before Kyle could inquire, Jian and Yue explained what occurred after the symbols etched next to the entrance of the structure began to float and glow. They witnessed a beautiful woman accompanied by two men. The scene was blurry, so they couldn’t see the faces of the three individuals. Kyle nodded with a calm expression.

“I understand. It’s because the symbols were old. They have weakened over time, that is why the memories within them were somewhat damaged.”

Asher looked at everyone with disbelief, finding it hard to digest how casual they were about the whole thing.

The silver haired-man skyrocketed from the divine rank straight to the final stage of the transcendent rank in a single leap, and on top of that, they just witnessed an ancient memory, yet they were shrugging off all of this as if it were insignificant!?

‘I haven’t experienced this much shock in the past hundred years!’

He took a deep breath and did his best to give Kyle a calm smile.

“Don’t you want to know what the three people in the memory discussed?”

Kyle shot him a sidelong glance.

“I’m already aware. I could hear everything even while inside the structure. The woman mentioned they would construct similar trial grounds around the tomb and hide treasures inside. The two men with her simply agreed to her plans.”

Asher’s eyebrow twitched. How could he forget that the human had reached the transcendent rank? Kyle could easily see and hear everything outside the structure since the half-dragon had shattered all the restrictions around the trial ground.

However, he was a bit irked because if Kyle could see and hear everything, why the heck didn’t he stop Yue and Jian when they were explaining about the memory?

‘Darn… he’s giving them special treatment. Is it because I just met him and they have known him for a long time?’

Regardless, he couldn’t wrap his head around everything he just saw. He spent a hundred years in this tomb and still couldn’t find something like what Kyle discovered—an old memory. That’s why he forgot to ask the human what else he found besides the symbols containing memories and where exactly he found them.

Kyle watched as Yue and Bia entered the structure to break through as well. Then, he gestured for Jian to follow him.

After moving a distance away from the half-dragon, he informed Jian about the herb garden. Kyle asked the red-haired man to gather all the herbs once everyone they knew had finished using the platform.

Jian nodded quickly with a serious expression, as if he had been given the most significant task of his life.

“Don’t worry, I will be camping out here. I won’t leave until I have plucked every single herb! But how do I enter the hidden garden when I don’t know where it is?”

He hummed when Kyle told him that it was under the platform, and he had broken all the barriers around the herb garden. Jian just needed to reach the transcendent rank and break the platform. Then he would easily reach the hidden room.

Asher narrowed his eyes at the pair and secretly tried to eavesdrop, but he was left speechless when he noticed a barrier around them, undoubtedly set up by Kyle because he couldn’t breach it.

“Just what are they discussing?”

Jian and Kyle came back after a few minutes. The red-haired man was grinning, almost beaming with joy. However, when Asher asked about what happened, he schooled his face to a serious one.

Nox and Kyle entered the trial ground to oversee Yue and Bia, while Jian and Asher remained outside the structure. The two of them were lounging under the clear sky, one absorbing divine energy to ascend to the pinnacle of the divine rank, the other just getting bored with nothing to do. Suddenly, a massive portal materialized above them, and swiftly Kyle emerged from it.

The silver-haired man looked down at Jian and Asher and without a word, moved a distance away from the portal.

Confusion clouded their faces, and Asher’s eyes widened as a majestic fire phoenix emerged from the portal. Unlike him, Jian chuckled when he saw the golden flames illuminating everything around him.

“Bia has also broken through!”

Asher’s mouth hung open.

“Who… the little bird with Kyle? I knew it was at the divine rank and not normal, but it was actually a phoenix!?”

As soon as the phoenix appeared, the air grew unnervingly hot, capable of melting everything in its path.

Jian and Asher quickly moved back and observed as the phoenix soared high into the sky, unleashing a piercing cry that echoed through the entire tomb.

Kyle smiled faintly at the phoenix as he watched her unfurl her huge, breathtaking wings adorned with red, golden, and blue hues that shimmered under the sky. Her feathers were draped in golden flames, dancing along her entire body.

“Good job on coming this far.”

He witnessed Bia’s breakthrough. She was already at the pinnacle of the divine rank, and even without utilizing the platform, he knew she would easily break through. That’s why it didn’t take her long to ascend to the transcendent rank. Just an hour.

The commotion drew in a crowd of individuals who were roaming around the place to find treasures after battling the undead all night.

But before anyone could find the trial ground and catch a glimpse of the massive phoenix, Kyle waved his hand. Instantly, numerous symbols illuminated in the air and created a shield to envelop everything around him, preventing any uninvited guests from discovering this place.

Bia controlled her flames and encircled Kyle’s body with sparkling eyes. He noticed the phoenix’s eyes had turned more blue and golden. The crimson hue within them had nearly diminished, becoming the least prominent of the three colors.

-“So, I heard you singing my praises, huh? That’s rare coming from you. But who could resist praising this majestic me that has reached an impressive rank. Hehe.”

Kyle’s eyes crinkled a bit in response.

“You did great.”

But then his gaze turned serious.

“But I don’t want to catch you slacking just because you have grown stronger. After all, the transcendent rank pales in comparison to the higher ranks.”
