Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Stepping Into Transcendence, the Second Talent!


Blood red!


The spiritual world of Aster Grant was entirely blood red!


The color, like blood, made him unable to breathe!


However, surrounded by a sea of blood, his spiritual power soared crazily!


In the room.


Feeling Aster’s status, Orion Winslow hurriedly reminded:


"Miss, it seems Aster is about to... step into the Transcendent!"


Transcendent?!


Upon hearing this, Crystal Winslow’s pupils narrowed sharply, she quickly turned to look at Aster on the bed.


She saw the youth surrounded by eerie blood light, even his breathing turned scorching.


Truly breaking through to the Transcendent!


But...


Why blood-colored?!


Crystal recalled when Aster awakened his talent, it was clearly silver!


But now...


Before Crystal could compose herself, Orion pulled her aside, forming seals with his hands, and an ice-blue barrier instantly enveloped the entire room.


Orion watched the blood light on Aster’s body, frowning slightly.


If he wasn’t mistaken, Aster was not only breaking through to the Transcendent...


But also synchronously awakening a talent!


However.


Hadn’t Crystal said Aster had already awakened early?


Then what is this...


Orion’s heart shook tremendously, a guess surged into his mind instantly!


Second talent!!


At this moment, Aster’s Beastbond Space was undergoing a massive transformation.


The surge in spiritual power from breaking through to the Transcendent nearly doubled the size of the original Beastbond Space.


In the Beastbond Space, a green light cocoon that had been dormant for some time suddenly trembled violently.


It actively drew Aster’s surging spiritual power, sketching a contract pattern inside the cocoon.


Voluntary contract!!


With the completion of the last contract pattern, Aster clearly felt a slumbering consciousness added to his spiritual sea.


And the green cocoon, after completing the contract, returned to tranquility as if nothing had happened.


At the same time, his second talent –


"Soul-devouring" was completely awakened!


The effect of this talent was simple and domineering:


Unconditionally doubles all attributes of the bonded beast!


Take Lazuli as an example.


In the Blazing Angel State, her attributes would become doubled.


Using the Soul-devouring talent, her attributes would be doubled again.


Thus, Lazuli’s final combat power increase reached an astonishing fourfold!


However, Aster felt it a bit.


He couldn’t use both Sovereign and Soul-devouring talents simultaneously.


Otherwise, relying on the state provided by Sovereign plus the Soul-devouring talent,


Lazuli would be able to walk horizontally at the Extraordinary Level.


When Aster fully controlled the newly awakened power and slowly opened his eyes, what came into view were the extremely complex expressions of Crystal and Orion Winslow.


"You guys..." Aster touched his face in confusion, "Why are you looking at me like that?"


Orion’s facial muscles twitched slightly.


Yet, he ultimately didn’t ask...


If Aster had awakened a second talent?!


After all, he had already reported Aster’s situation.


The principal would naturally make decisions about it!


"How long have I slept?"


Crystal calculated roughly and spoke slowly.


"From the time we exited the sanctum to now, you’ve been in a coma for half a month."


"The place you’re at now is in Crestholm, at the Winslow Family, my home!"


Hearing that he had been comatose for half a month.


Aster frowned slightly.


The aftereffects of spiritual power exhaustion were surprisingly severe.


However, the result was gratifying.


Noticing the materials in the Beastbond Space, the evolution materials for Lazuli were basically collected!


Wait!!!


Lazuli?!


Having used her Ultimate Skills, how is the little girl?!"


Aster immediately sensed via the contract.


At this moment, the little girl seemed to be right next door.


Moreover, she seemed about to complete the transformation from the Awakening Stage to the Extraordinary Level.


Thinking of this.


Aster immediately got out of bed.


From the Awakening Stage advancing to the Extraordinary Level, he didn’t feel any discomfort from lying for half a month.


At this moment, he felt his state was excellent.


With three steps turned into two, he rushed next door, and as he pushed the door open, crimson flames rushed towards him.


Lazuli’s petite body was completely enveloped in Divine Flame, four wings unfolding in the firelight.


Under Aster’s gaze, all the flames suddenly collapsed inward, transforming into streams of light that entered Lazuli’s body.


[Divine Angel (Lazuli)]


[Talent: Legendary Three Stars]


[Level: Extraordinary Tier One]


[Power: 820]


[Constitution: 810]


[Spiritual: 800]


[Speed: 830]


[Skills: Judgment, Divine Protection, Blazing Angel Form, Song of the End]


[Evolution: Angel Sacred Blood (Already Owned), Light Crystal (Already Owned), Holy Marrow Spirit Liquid (Not Acquired)]


Lazuli’s attributes ushered in a qualitative leap!


After stepping into the Extraordinary Realm, her attributes soared from below 500 points directly to over 800 points.


Aster felt the power waves conveyed by the contract, and his lips curled slightly.


Now, if Lazuli faced Seraph Miller again, she might not even need to use the Song of the End to kill him.


Even more delightful was the contract with the Nature Elf Vera.


Although she fell asleep again after forming the contract, this was a genuinely Myth Talent Beastbond!


Aster speculated that his spiritual power waves emitted during the breakthrough to the Transcendent triggered Vera’s innate reaction, encouraging her to complete the contract.


"As long as I find a way to wake her up and help her break through to the Extraordinary Level..."


Aster’s eyes sparkled with excitement.


If he could successfully enter Aegis Academy to obtain the Holy Marrow Spirit Liquid and elevate Lazuli’s talent to a Myth level...


Two Myth Talent Beasts!


This idea made Aster’s heart race.


By then, even when facing a Beast Tamer of an Extraordinary High Rank, he would have the power to fight!


At this time.


Lazuli slowly opened her brilliant golden eyes.


The moment her vision focused, she unhesitatingly leaped towards Aster.


Aster instinctively opened his arms, and the little girl immediately burrowed into his embrace like a fledgling returning home.


No one noticed, but a hint of cleverness flashed in Lazuli’s eyes.


Through the contract sensing, she long ago noticed that her master had a new contract with the Nature Elf.


This gave her a strong sense of crisis.


"Can’t wait any longer..."


Lazuli secretly vowed in her heart.


To make her master realize, she must take the initiative.


She quietly tightened her arms around Aster, burying her small face into his chest.


On the side, Crystal Winslow watched this scene, and a strange bitterness arose in her heart.


She furrowed her brows in confusion, not understanding where this emotion came from.


To hide her strange feeling, she cleared her throat and reminded:


"Aster, the third assessment is about to start."


This sentence was like a cold bucket of water.


Aster was suddenly awakened.


Holy Marrow Spirit Liquid!


He must pass the assessment to enter Aegis Academy!


If he missed this chance...


What if he couldn’t get in?


However, Aster’s worries were completely unnecessary!


At this moment, Zane Drake, the principal of Aegis Academy, and other academy principals were already gathering towards the assessment site.


These big figures, who were usually as rare as dragons, unexpectedly all had the same objective this time—


It was that peerless genius personally recommended by Abel Vance—


Aster Grant!
