Chapter 1553 - Ancient Primalwing
The bubbling grew even more severe and the colors in the lake intensified even further until it was a body of glowing light. Countless primalwingers kept their eyes glued to the surface, feeling more nervous than they ever could. If a pair of celestialwings appeared, only one person would get it! It would be the top prize! The winner would no doubt be the focus of everyone shortly thereafter.
Everything was silent save for the bubbling of the lake. Suddenly, the light's glow reached its peak. Gradually, a pair of pure white feathered wings materialized with a wingspan of ten thousand meters. White electricity crackled through the feathers. Countless gasps of awe could be heard; the pair of celestialwings didn't represent just one person. In fact, it could be passed down to the next generation and beyond, marking the start of a new family with celestialwings. Primalwings from the Kunlan Realm could be passed on for generations, after all. Not to mention, these wings didn't have to be fought over! One just needed luck, and everyone stood a chance! People began going wild with their imaginations. Rising to the top through earning the goddess of fortune's favor was the dream of many of the young ones there. The sheer wingspan of these wings was a clear sign of their grade. Even the orderly primalwingers seemed to go wild with anticipation, their eyes much wider than before.
"What kind of celestialwings will they be?"
"Who knows? They’re coming out soon!"
Though the wings were still partially submerged, many elites could already identify them.
"This looks like top-grade celestialwings that were lost for close to two million years!"
"Back from the time before the astral hole?"
Primary's history was split into two distinct parts: before astral hole and after astral hole.
"Surely they can't be Flashsoul Skywings?"
That suggestion made everyone forget to breathe.
"The one from the Flashsoul Clan? The clan that challenged the royals once?"
"There’s only a few recorded instances of Flashsoul Skywings coming from the Kunlan Realm. They were lost ages ago."
The name of these wings spread like wildfire. There were many who didn't know what significance it held; only those well-versed in history would know what it truly meant.
"It really does look possible!"
Among the top-grade celestialwings, Flashsoul Skywings were among the best. Few celestialwings that still existed could match up to them. Transmission stones went flying all across the astral hole, spreading word of the shocking news. It seemed that quite a few people had underestimated the wings that would be coming out of the Kunlan Realm this time.
Everyone held their breath as they waited for the birth of a new shining beacon. Usually, top-grade wings like these wouldn't choose anyone over a hundred years of age, as younger people could more easily adapt and grow. They all chanted the alleged name of these wings as they emerged from the Kunlan Realm. Then the lake dimmed. Tianming's Prime Tower didn't seem like it would be returning soon, and the wings seemed to be the last thing to come out of the Kunlan Realm.
"They really look like Flashsoul Skywings!" Many old primalwingers looked at them with shock. Before they could react, the gigantic wings flew out. White lightning could be seen streaking through the milky-white feathers. With each flap of the wings, they seemed to disappear and reappear in another location the next instant.
"It's too fast!"
Flashsoul Skywings were known for their speed. In fact, they didn't just move fast. They seemed to warp space, in a way, allowing for a kind of teleportation with each flash, hence the name. They were ethereal and impossible to grasp. The ones closest to the wings now were Ji Lingxian and Lady Floral of the royals. When she saw the pair of celestialwings, her eyes were bloodshot. "I'm the most talented among the primalwingers! They must’ve come for me!" She was superior in every regard, be it status, age, or talent. There wasn't anyone she could think of who could rival her in any way.
"Relax," Lady Floral said, holding her hand. However, even she herself found it hard to suppress her thoughts of the implication of the wings' appearance. Ji Lingxian already possessed Evernight Skywings; if she was chosen by the Flashsoul Skywings, the fusion of these two kinds of primalwings would give rise to a never-before-seen talent. It was almost certain that she would rise to the level of a sovereign!
"Yes...." Ji Lingxian took a deep breath, waiting for the wings to flash toward her. Things happened far too quickly. She even spread her own Evernight Skywings to try drawing them to her, as if she was yelling 'don't pick the wrong person! I'm the best for you!'. Yet the Flashsoul Skywings soon answered her desperate call.
The wings flashed past Ji Lingxian, seemingly shrinking as they flew further and further away.
"Who is it?!" Everyone turned to follow the wings, forgetting to breathe. It was all over for Ji Lingxian. She closed her eyes with great pain and tightly clenched her fists. She was completely stiff, her hopes completely and utterly dashed. If these wings hadn’t appeared at all, she wouldn't feel nearly as bad as she did. It didn't make sense—who could be more suitable than her? It was the first time she had felt rage at the unfairness of life, despite being one of the most privileged people in Primary. She grit her teeth and turned toward the wings where Tianming and Feiling were, who were just as shocked.
"How beautiful," Feiling praised.
"Agreed. I heard they're great for running away, too," Tianming said.
"Running away? That’d be perfect for me."
"Dream on. The wings are for primalwingers."
"But why do I get the feeling that I've been chosen?" she said with a dazzled look.
"Haha, nonsense.... If they pick you, I'll eat a ton of Lan Huang's crap—heavens, no!" The wings rapidly approached them before he could finish teasing her, crashing into them as countless people watched.
