Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Sanctum Concludes!
At the instant he saw the Angel Sacred Blood, Aster Grant’s pupils contracted.
The second material for Lazuli’s advancement!
In his hand, he already possessed the Light Crystal and Angel Sacred Blood, now all that remained was...
Holy Spirit Marrow Liquid!
But according to Orion Winslow, the Holy Spirit Marrow Liquid is in the treasury of Aegis Academy!
As long as he joins Aegis Academy...
Then he is sure to obtain this final material!
By then, through the cultivation of Lazuli with these three materials...
Could Lazuli’s level reach Myth Level?!
As for the other item!
Since it is a Holy Artifact of the Angel Race, it should be left to Lazuli, the Angel Race princess, for safekeeping.
However, at this moment.
The figure of an Eight-Winged Angel in the sky suddenly trembled violently, the blazing red flames receding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the eight brilliant wings shattered inch by inch.
Lazuli’s body seemed to have been drained of all power, plunging straight down from the heights.
The side effects of using Ultimate Skills!
Aster Grant’s heart tightened, ignoring his own body as he rushed forward.
However...
Just as he took a step, a dizzying whirl seized him.
The overexertion of his spiritual power finally reached its limit, and the world before his eyes abruptly descended into darkness.
His body uncontrollably pitched forward, yet at the brink of touching the ground, he was steadily caught by a pair of soft arms.
In a daze, a faint orchid-like fragrance lingered at his nose.
...
At this moment, outside the Sanctum.
Orion Winslow was anxiously pacing back and forth.
After all, this was an entirely new Sanctum, no one knew what existed inside.
If something were to happen to Crystal Winslow and Aster Grant...
How would he explain it to the Winslow Family and the nation?
Thinking of this, cold sweat had already soaked Orion Winslow’s back.
One is the heir of the Winslow Family, and the other...
Is an unparalleled Beastbond prodigy in Draconia in a hundred years!
This kind of loss he simply could not bear!
And just then.
The space suddenly rippled like water.
"They’ve come out!"
Orion Winslow jerked his head up, but instantly froze in place—
Before him, a vast horde of Beastkin suddenly appeared on the previously empty plain.
Hundreds of Beastkin warriors stepped forward in formation, their bodies still bearing battle scars, yet each standing upright.
At the head of the procession, there was Crystal Winslow holding an unconscious Aster Grant!
Looking at this imposing force, Orion Winslow’s mouth twitched.
These people...
Crystal Winslow, however, had no time to attend to them just now.
She arrived on the battlefield at the first moment she completed her bloodline enhancement just in time to witness Aster Grant collapsing from exhaustion.
Almost by instinct, she dashed forward ahead of Veronica, catching the youth securely in her arms.
"Grandpa Xinghe! Quickly check on Aster Grant!"
The always composed Winslow Family eldest young lady’s voice was tinged with unprecedented panic.
"He seems to have fainted from talent exhaustion!"
Crystal Winslow hadn’t even noticed that the arms holding Aster Grant were trembling slightly, and those eyes, usually as cold as ice, were now filled with urgency.
However.
At this moment, Orion Winslow stood frozen on the spot, seriously doubting his hearing.
Could he have misheard?
Earlier, the young miss seemed to say "Aster Grant’s talent was overused"?
???
Orion Winslow reconfirmed Aster Grant’s level.
Indeed!
He was Awakened Tier Nine!
Which meant...
Aster Grant had actually awakened his talent ahead of time?!
Orion Winslow’s Adam’s apple bobbed violently a few times, forcibly suppressing the surging waves in his heart.
This situation must be reported to the headmaster immediately. If such a peerless talent slips through the cracks...
"Grandpa Xinghe!"
Seeing Orion Winslow not responding for a long time, Crystal Winslow’s tone carried a hint of anger.
Orion Winslow then came to his senses, quickly bending down to check Aster Grant’s condition.
"His body is fine, it’s just an overuse of spiritual power, hence his fainting!"
Orion Winslow said, his gaze turning toward Lazuli, who was being carefully held by Sally:
"As for his Beastbond..."
This was clearly the aftermath of using the Beastbond’s Ultimate Skills.
It just needs some time to recover naturally.
But.
The use of the Ultimate Skills by this Beastbond actually resulted in such significant side effects?
It’s known that the more severe the aftereffects, the stronger the Ultimate Skills.
The Ice Phoenix using Ultimate Skills only causes itself to faint.
While this Beastbond, fell directly into slumber!
Orion Winslow’s mouth twitched.
Indeed!
A deviant Beast Tamer is bound to have deviant Beasts!
Upon hearing that Aster Grant was fine, Crystal Winslow’s tensed shoulders slightly relaxed.
Glancing at the Beastkin behind her, she seemed to realize something, speaking slowly:
"These Beastkin took refuge in the Sanctum before, now the Sanctum was invaded by the Demon Clan, and Aster Grant saved them, so they chose to follow us."
Under Crystal Winslow’s explanation, Orion Winslow finally understood.
Draconia does not reject Xenos!
In the Alternate Space, many races have sought the sanctuary of Draconia.
And Draconia has generously accepted them all.
Therefore, having one more Beastkin is not a big issue.
Except——
"It’s a long journey from here to Draconia, you..."
The Ron Clan Leader stepped forward respectfully bowing with the highest Beastkin greeting:
"Master, I will lead my people to Draconia. Please take the Prophet back for healing."
Orion Winslow nodded approvingly.
Though Draconia is inclusive, it does not provide unconditional support for all races.
Whether these Beastkin can traverse obstacles to reach Draconia, is in itself the best test for them.
Before departure, Ron earnestly requested Orion Winslow to take his daughter Sally.
Considering unconscious Aster Grant indeed needed someone to care for him, he did not refuse.
...
Elsewhere.
Just as Veronica Vero stepped out of the Sanctum, a shadowy figure knelt ghostly before her.
"Miss, the Clan Leader orders you to return immediately."
The voice of the man in black was low and respectful, yet carried an undeniable firmness.
Veronica Vero’s emerald eyes flashed with a hint of impatience, she waved her delicate hand impatiently:
"Old geezer, so many orders!"
She glanced disdainfully at the kneeling Beast Tamer, "And you, Jax, next time don’t appear before me. Just seeing your face irritates me!"
The Beast Tamer known as Jax maintained his humble posture, not daring to lift his head:
"Understood, Miss!"
Seeing such passive obedience, Veronica Vero suddenly felt disheartened.
She sighed softly, her tone softened a bit:
"Forget it, I shouldn’t make things difficult for you."
Then, she turned to the Nether Spirit Leopard, a spark of inspiration flashing.
"Leo, what do you think... should I enroll in Draconia as a student?!"
The Nether Spirit Leopard’s eye twitched.
This young lady really acts on spur of the moment.
With her identity, what kind of uproar would her entrance into Draconia cause?
However, on second thought, such matters would naturally be handled by others.
"I see no issue, Miss Vero!"
"Great, then it’s happily decided!"
