Chapter 617 Divine Adamantine Beas (2/2)

[Monster Description]: A duck-shaped Divine Adamantine Beast. Despite having a pair of wings, its flight speed and agility are still lacking. It is a reckless thing, and it has every right to be so, thanks to its formidable strength and defenses.

[Promotion to Eternal Grade]: Divine Adamantine Elder

Gao Peng began reflecting on what he had just read. With its resistances now greatly increased, it no longer had to worry about being killed before it could trigger its passive ability enough times to survive a killing blow.

Goldie's resistance to Charm-type abilities had also been increased. However, Gao Peng was a bit let down by the fact that only its willpower had received a boost, instead of its spiritual fortitude. Goldie would have had all its bases covered if spiritual fortitude had received a boost as well. Its Gui power could only increase its physical constitution; its spiritual power wasn't included in the package.

Also, Goldie was still not completely adapted to aerial combat. Even though it could now fly, flight wasn't one of its strong suits. The Monster Description had made special mention of Goldie's weaknesses, which were all areas that it had yet to attain sufficient competence in...

Gao Peng had also noticed that the fruit abilities he had endowed Goldie with were all negated by its Divine Body. It seemed to have a strong nullifying effect on any external energies.

”It must have reached Mythical-grade,” said the black dragon, narrowing its eyes at Goldie.

”I would like to spar with it once it reaches Saint-tier,” said the Earthbreaker Dragon Ape, its fighting spirit now ablaze.

The high priestess gazed at Gao Peng and Goldie, who were still standing on the beach. She then let out a sigh, suddenly feeling very old.

One needed more than luck to help a familiar reach the Mythical grade. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been called the Mythical grade.

The people watching the island from afar could only see two human-like figures on the beach. They could tell that neither one of them belonged to the Earthbreaker Dragon Ape. Most of them were forced to forgo sleep that night. Their thoughts were filled with what they had seen on the high priestess' island.

When Goldie had successfully completed its promotion, the black dragon slunk quietly back into the ocean's depths.

The next day, Gao Peng took Goldie to see the high priestess.

”Thank you, high priestess, for helping us keep everyone else away from the island,” said Gao Peng, bowing deeply.

The high priestess scattered a handful of chicken feed on the ground. A couple of phoenix-tailed chickens scrambled over to peck it up. Slapping her hands clean, the high priestess nodded. ”We of the White Dragon Tribe always make it a point to treat our friends right. I only feared that those who were a bit too close would interrupt your familiar's promotion.”

She then looked at Goldie, which was standing behind Gao Peng. ”This must be the familiar from last night. Not bad.”

”The commotion you made last night shook the whole tribe. The tribal chief sent someone over just now to bring you to his place. I didn't want to wake you up, so I told them to wait.”

”Thank you, high priestess,” said Gao Peng, making sure to sound as grateful as he could. His expression changed slightly when he looked at the high priestess' kind features. ”We've known each other for so long, but I still don't know what your name is.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

”Me? My name's Bai Ya,” said the high priestess softly.

Gao Peng frowned. He couldn't figure out which Chinese character the 'Ya' in 'Bai Ya' belonged to.

”Ya, as in Yazi,” said the high priestess with a smile, as if she was accustomed to people being confused by her name.

Yazi? Gao Peng's heart began to beat faster. Yazi was the name of the Dragon King's second son. It had an aggressive temperament and an insatiable thirst for blood and combat. As the saying went, ”As every act of kindness must be repaid in kind, so too shall every wrong suffered by Yazi, however slight.” He never would have thought that such a kind, gentle woman would have such a violent name.

”Not bad, not bad at all,” said Bai Ya the high priestess as she carefully observed every angle of Goldie's body. There was a look of satisfaction on her face.

”In all my life, I've never encountered any Mythical-grade monsters or familiars until today. I'm quite pleased by this,” she said thoughtfully. She then handed Gao Peng a copper tablet. ”My initial reason for visiting Earth was so that I could meet your grandfather. It's a shame that he…”

Bai Ya stopped short, before sighing. ”This is for you, a symbol of my authority. You're a talented kid. I would hate to see you die young before you could live up to your full potential. When you meet the tribal chief later, you can show them this copper tablet to gain access to the tribe's warehouse and pick any item that you want. You can go now.”
