Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 646: I guess I needed the rest



It was uncommon to even come across the name Celestial. Hence, Alec questioned the system regarding the Celestial spirits and how they were different from the mystical spirits, but the system went into a slumber.

"Don't tell me Soul exhausted all its strength?"

He whispered under his breath. Suddenly, Lara patted his shoulder, prompting him to look back at her.

"What's the plan? I don't think we should wait around. There are three trial grounds around the rock formation. How about we separate into three groups and enter each? It would be easier to search for clues regarding the tomb's exit this way."

Alec pondered for a moment. Splitting up didn't seem ideal, but Lara had a point. He concurred with her, and the rest were on board as well. They decided to clear the trial grounds individually and regroup outside the rock formation.

At that moment, Nox landed on Yue's shoulder with narrowed eyes. He glanced at the three massive statues once more.

"Hey... don't you think these statues look somewhat familiar?"

Yue glanced at the statues.

"They do look familiar..."

Suddenly, her eyes flashed with surprise as she recognized the woman statue. Quickly, she approached Jian.

"Jian, don't these statues bear a resemblance to the three individuals we saw in the ancient memory triggered by Kyler? Although the memory was blurry, I'm certain the woman's facial features match the one in the memory."

Jian's eyes widened.

"Wait, now that you mentioned it, I remember! The face of the woman's statue bears a striking resemblance to the one in the ancient memory!"

Alec and the rest heard them talking, and Jian quickly explained to them about the old memory Kyle found at the spot where they all ascended to the transcendent rank using the platform. He revealed that the three individuals in the memory were, in fact, the creators of the tomb!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zron's eyes narrowed in thought.

"If what Jian is saying is accurate, would not that imply that these three trial grounds hold significant power within this tomb? I believe we might discover a hint to escape this tomb within these trials."

Susan and Yon nodded in agreement. If these three statues truly belonged to the creators of this tomb, it was possible that they could discover clues about the exit through them.

Reguis clapped his hands.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's split up into three groups quickly and enter them. We can only confirm our speculations by exploring the trial grounds."

Yue glanced at the clear sky above her and rubbed Nox's head with a sigh.

"Kyle and Bia are missing. I hope they are doing well wherever they are."

Nine rolled his eyes at her words.

"With his strength, do you truly believe anyone in this tomb is capable of harming him? Even Asher, who was in the supreme rank, was somewhat doubtful!"

Alec heard Yue and Nine's words. He wanted to tell them about the Celestial spirits, thinking the spirits could maybe harm Kyle. But decided against it when he recalled Kyle was stronger than him.

'Maybe he can handle the spirits?'

He furrowed his brow. The system had gone into slumber, so he couldn't ask Soul about the true power of the Celestial spirits.

The group discussed for a while, then swiftly split into three smaller groups.

Group one, comprising Alec, Lara, Regius, and Yon, entered the trial ground adjacent to one of the male statues.

Group two, consisting of Zron, Carcel, Mia, and Sinon, proceeded to the trial ground beside the other male statue.

Group three, made up of Jian, Yue, Nox, Nine, and Susan, entered the trial ground next to the woman statue.

After they all disappeared, a burly man emerged from the rock formation.

He stood alone, and if Kyle had seen him, he would have recognized him instantly. It was Elijah, the human to whom he had given a friendly warning.

"Aren't they Kyle's friends?"

He had been wandering the rock formation alone after successfully escaping from the people who tried to kill him after Kyle left. He didn't hear anything Alec and the individuals with the blue-haired man said; they were all floating high, and he was inside the formation.

He just saw them and paused. Like him, many other people nearby had also noticed Alec and his group, but they avoided them.

Elijah scratched his head. He had seen the same carving that Regius found in the rock formation and wanted to enter one of the trial grounds surrounding the rock formation.

"Should I enter the trial grounds or not? I want to get stronger, but I'm not sure if Kyle's companions are as good as he is."

He was hesitant. Getting stronger mattered, but his life mattered more. After a moment, he sighed and cautiously stepped into one of the trial grounds.

"I can't keep lagging because there's someone stronger ahead. To get stronger, I must confront my fears head-on!"

He entered the woman statue, similar to Jian, Yue, Nox, Nine, and Susan.

However, due to Jian's bad luck, the group encountered a more challenging path, and he went ahead of them.

As they explored the trial grounds, within the structure constructed from layers of stacked rocks, Kyle finally woke up.

He blinked a few times to gather his thoughts. His mind and body both were feeling

refreshed.

"I guess I needed the rest."

His gaze landed on the crimson bird napping beside him, prompting a chuckle from him.

"Don't tell me she dozed off while keeping watch? I appreciate that even after I passed out,

I'm still in one piece."

He shifted, and Bia's eyes snapped open at the motion around her.

-"Who!?"

The phoenix assumed a defensive posture, fearing an undead had infiltrated the structure. However, she sighed in relief upon seeing Kyle standing up.

-"You're finally awake, huh? I nearly died of hunger and boredom."

Kyle's eyes sparkled with amusement at her words. He retrieved some fruits from his mind space and placed them in front of Bia.

"You did a great job protecting me. Now it's my turn. You can rest as long as you want."

Bia let out a sneer.

-"Of course, I'm going to do nothing but eat and sleep for the next few days!"
