Chapter 1060 - Allegiance (1/2)

The effects, that disappeared as fast as they appeared, attracted the attention of all the mages in the Raging Flame Battlefield.

No mage was clueless as to what that meant.

Dedale suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance with a surprised expression.

“Someone advanced to the Heaven Rank? Who is it? How could this be?! They just advanced to the Heaven Rank and already established their Demiplane?!”

It wasn’t just Dedale, several other mages also noticed that.

A few of the leaders of the human forces had seen someone advance to the Heaven Rank and could recognize the fluctuations and the effects.

Those few fluctuations barely lasted an instant, but the few people noticing them let out surprised exclamations.

It was possible to advance to the Heaven Rank in the Raging Flame Plane, but it was extremely rare. There had only been one case in so many years. It was a lot harder to advance in a place like the Raging Flame Battlefield that suppressed the Heaven Rank and Extraordinary Power.

“To be able to advance here… Who could it be? Dedale? Damn, that guy is actually that talented? He advanced to the Heaven realm in a place that suppresses Extraordinary Power?!

“How strong will he be after leaving this place? I’m afraid 1st Rank Heaven powerhouses won’t be his match.

“F*cking damn luck, can’t that sl*tty goddess of fate watch over me for once? How come I never get that lucky…”

Dylas’ eyes rapidly turned red as he looked envious and hateful.

And on another side, Jouyi and Harren converged together, hunting those Pseudo Heaven Rank Magic Beasts together.

The Cloud Tower and the Black Tower’s strength had been greatly damaged after entering the Raging Flame Battlefield. Not only did a large number of their mages die, their inherited True Spirit Magic Tools were destroyed, reducing their hunting efficiency while increasing the dangers.

They had complicated expressions as they suddenly felt those Heaven Rank fluctuations.

“Heaven Rank, eh? Someone was actually able to advance to the Heaven Rank in the Raging Flame Battlefield? This place is unfortunately suppressing mages quite heavily and Heaven Rank Mage’s Extraordinary Power can’t be used, we also can’t sense who advanced…” Harren sighed.

He had been half a step in the Heaven Rank for a long time, his foundation was good enough and he only missed the last step to finish his transformation. But it’s been a few years and he had yet to feel any sign of advancing.

As for Jouyi, he had waited for at least twenty years. He had previously been focused on something else and hadn’t focused on advancing. His research had been completed only because of Lin Yun and he was finally able to focus on magic in the recent years. But he hadn’t completed that final transformation.

It would be wrong to say that he didn’t feel envious as he felt those fluctuations.

For those half a step into the Heaven Rank and lacking the final step, the increase in strength from completing that transformation wasn’t too excessive, it would double or triple their strength at best.

The most important part was casting off their mortal body and becoming a lifeform that transcended mortals. Their Life Essence would transform and their lifespan would be ten times longer. They would appreciate even more things and would have even more time to accomplish their desires and seek the truth of magic.

The meaning of these things, to a true mage, far exceeded a measly increase in power.

The powerhouses half a step in the Heaven Rank within the Raging Flame Battlefield all had complicated feelings. They could only envy that person’s fortune.

After all, who could guarantee if and when they would advance to the Heaven Rank and complete that last transformation, luck played an important role after all.

There were many cases of mages reaching the 9th Rank of the Archmage realm before 30, only to die of old age before accomplishing the last transformation.

There were some old Archmages that suddenly accomplished that transformation at death’s door and became Heaven Rank powerhouses, regaining their youth. This kind of matter wasn’t impossible.

Whether they did everything they could or not, in the end, that last step was something that only fate decided.

And thus, they all felt envy, jealousy or hate. No one thought that this breakthrough had been accomplished through external help.

Near the temple, Raphael floated down with closed eyes. The wind elements in the surroundings supported his body of their own volition. He wasn’t casting, but he didn’t have to worry about falling down.

His Extraordinary Power fluctuations disappeared, but his aura had already gone through huge changes. His skin was shining and his mana fluctuations had become vast and cryptic. It gave others the feeling that he was overwhelmingly tall, and it felt as if the surrounding environment was helping him.
