Chapter 655: Are they even looking for me?



Kyle raised his head as a familiar bell chimed throughout the ancient tomb.

He was inside a trial ground, with numerous symbols illuminating his surroundings. After obliterating the power source of the trial ground, he disappeared once again, only to reappear under the dark sky.

His gaze narrowed as he sensed Bia and Yue's presence moving quite a distance from the rock formation.

"What are they doing?"

He couldn't expand his scent perception skill or senses widely to avoid alerting the Celestial spirit as he planned to entice it out at the right moment, but he could detect Bia through their bond and Yue through the mark he placed on her.

He didn't dwell on it much; they were likely looking for him. Moreover, now that Bia and Yue had attained the transcendent rank, he was sure they could easily handle anything in the lost treasure tomb.

"The only danger they can't handle in the tomb are the supreme rank undeads. But running into one of them is very rare. So, I reckon there's no need to worry."

Kyle took a quick look at the undead that had emerged from the ground beneath him. Instantly, many symbols lit up the air as he zoomed in on the undead and smashed its entire skeletal form with a single punch.

All the symbols floating around him vanished into the ground, and the shattered remains of the undead scattered around. In a flash, he vanished in a different direction. After wandering throughout the entire night and inscribing symbols in various spots, he halted in front of a familiar statue.

It was the very first statue he had encountered upon entering the tomb but hadn't actually entered.

Kyle glanced at the a huge marble statue standing before him. It represented a male human, but the statue's eyes were peculiar, with two straight slits carved into its pupils. In the past, he didn't recognize which race this statue belonged to, but now he did.

"The blessed race..."

He mumbled under his breath as he remembered the two purple slits he had seen in Azazeal's eyes. It seems like the three creators of this tomb placed a statue representing every race in the universe here, whether they are extinct or not.

"They sure did a good job crafting this tomb to leave their marks in this universe, but it's a shame one of them got greedy, and that greed ruined the rest."

Kyle landed in front of the trial ground beside the statue and proceeded through the entrance leading inside.

He could have teleported straight to the treasure chamber, but he wanted to see if Azazeal had made the tests in this trial ground challenging or somewhat different. After all, the statue represented his race.

However, he was surprised because after entering the trial ground, he found himself in a chamber that contained nothing. The ground beneath him was desolate, and the walls around him were embellished with ancient inscriptions.

"Hmm..."

Kyle strolled through the chamber and quickly spotted a door in the distance. Upon entering the door, he encountered a group of demi-humans who seemed to have entered the trial ground ahead of him.

He glanced at the group and noticed some of them were attempting to interpret the inscriptions drawn on the walls.

However, he had already inspected and realized the inscriptions were merely there for aesthetic purposes.

That's why he proceeded directly to the solitary door in the chamber.

The demi-humans also noticed the silver-haired man, but when they saw him leave without paying any attention to them, they collectively breathed a sigh of relief. One of them whispered softly.

"Shouldn't we inform him that this trial ground is empty and holds nothing?"

together.

"Are they even looking for me?"

That was something he couldn't verify because they kept altering their course every few

hours, almost as if they were pursuing something.

Kyle rubbed his chin and started floating. His gaze narrowed towards a distant spot where he

could feel Bia and Yue's presence.

"Oh, they altered their course again. The way in which they are shifting places clearly

indicates they are pursuing something they can pinpoint..."

He disappeared from his spot and arrived above the familiar rock formation.

Kyle glanced at the two shattered statues and one intact statue surrounding the rock formation before entering it. He swiftly cleared out everyone from the formation and then

reached the center.

"This is a good spot..."

A few symbols lit up beneath his feet, drawing a small circle on the ground. He blinked, and a myriad of divine and spiritual treasures appeared above the circle.

"What a shame that I have to waste so many treasures... Nevertheless, they aren't particularly

useful to me right now."

He sighed and stepped back. The energy radiating from the countless treasures he retrieved from his mind space was powerful enough to shake the entire rock formation.

The abrupt surge of divine and spiritual energy in the air made even the people he had just

kicked out of the rock formation to stop in their tracks. They could easily feel the treasures nearby. However, their actions came to a halt when the treasures they sensed vanished into

thin air.

Kyle, who could sense their movements with his senses that covered the entire rock

formation, smirked.

"Do they really think they are strong enough to take something of mine?"

Shaking his head, he looked at the circle in front of him. It had encased the treasures and then

disappeared into the ground.

"Done. Now, I just have to locate two more prime spots, far apart from this one and each other. Then, I believe it will be time to attract the Celestial spirit."
