Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 682: Cleaning the Sacred Divine Land III



Kyle opened his eyes when he sensed everything surrounding him began to slow down, yet despite his efforts, he couldn't hold onto the time around him for more than a fleeting few seconds.

"Tsk..."

He scrunched up his nose in distaste. Even though he had been battling alongside Old Hal and the others for the past two weeks, in his mind, he had been endeavoring to comprehend the law of time by repeatedly pondering the feeling he experienced when he first wielded the power of time. Despite straining his mind, he only managed to succeed for a fleeting few seconds.

He looked back when he heard Bia's menacing laughter behind him.

"She's having a good time, isn't she?"

He chuckled and watched the phoenix as she controlled the golden flames, engulfing everything beneath her. Kyle's gaze shifted to Ned and Vexana, who were sprawled on the ground in a distant location.

Kyle shook his head. The duo was at the peak of the transcendent rank just like him, but both of them were very weak. He was certain that Bia, who was at the initial stage of the transcendent rank, could easily defeat them with her flames alone.

"Nevertheless, I reckon Ned had learned his lesson. Because if he dared to get on my nerves again, I am going to finish him off directly instead of wasting my time."

He sensed Wesley, Ronan, and Old Hal's eyes on his body but he paid them no mind and cracked his knuckles.

"Let's tidy up this battlefield."

His words hadn't even faded in the air as he disappeared from his location.

The next second, a muffled painful cry echoed in the area as one of the dark race individuals, attempting to flee from Bia's golden flames, suddenly noticed a silver spear piercing his heart.

Kyle's figure briefly flickered before his horrified eyes as his body dropped to the ground with a soft thud. Similar agonizing cries echoed throughout the area as one person after another from the dark side began collapsing lifeless to the ground.

Bia's gaze narrowed. She could feel Kyle's presence on the land, but she didn't control her flames because she knew he could easily avoid them, unlike some others.

- "I guess the battle is going to end soon."

Her words were indeed proven right as, within mere minutes, all the enemies in the vicinity met their end.

There was no supreme rank, and nearly all of them were injured, which is why it didn't take Kyle long to finish them all off.

He pulled out his spear from the tanned body adorned with bat-like wings and shook it to clean off the blood.

Ronan and Old Hal approached him to understand the extent of his mastery over the natural law of time. Not many in the universe could manipulate time; even those who could do it, can only slow it down or speed it up in a specific area.

Yet, after witnessing what just happened, they were confident that Kyle would soon master the natural law of time.

However, before they could say anything, Kyle began floating. His eyes flashed with fatigue as he let out a yawn.

"Clean this place up. Then, we will head to the area in the Sacred Divine Land that the dark side has conquered. Hopefully, we will be done here in a few more days."

He finished speaking, not even allowing the two supreme ranks a moment to respond, and promptly disappeared towards Bia.

The phoenix was astonished when he suddenly landed on her body. Kyle reclined on her back and closed his eyes.

"I'm taking a short rest. Tell me when the others are finish cleaning up the mess."

Bia rolled her eyes.

-"So, finally you want to rest? I thought you wouldn't until you collapsed."

She started floating above the area to watch the supreme ranks, who gazed at her with speechless expressions. The phoenix laughed inwardly at them; she was the only one in the group who had slept in the past two weeks above Kyle's head whenever she felt tired. Thus, she understood that, like Kyle, the others were also exhausted.

On the land, Ronan let out a sigh and glanced at Wesley, who was assisting Ned and Vexana. He shook Old Hal's shoulder.

"I'm going to take a short break as well. Just use your natural law of disintegration to clear away the remnants of the battle."

He swiftly distanced himself from the old man, who stared at him with sharp eyes, and joined Wesley and the rest.

Ronan let out a chuckle when he heard Ned's pleading voice. The man was actually requesting to be sent to the demon planet to assist the team currently searching for the second shadow general. At least there, he don't need to fight so strenuously!

Ronan leaned against a boulder, and Wesley glanced over to see if he had any updates on how well Kyle had gotten with the natural law of time. But he shook his head with a sigh.

"He's taking a break; we should rest too. After all, who knows when we will get the opportunity to rest again since he just said that we would be soon launching an attack on the area in the Sacred Divine Land conquered by the dark side."

He closed his eyes, but Wesley and the two others individuals nearby caught his words as he whispered softly in a serious tone.

"I'm sure Kyle's mental fortitude is exceptional, unlike that of regular people... or should I say he has an innate gift for easily understanding everything?"

He briefly opened his eyes to look at the sky where the phoenix was flying.

"That's a bit unjust."

Wesley tracked his gaze and also shut his eyes to take a break. However, the four of them had barely dozed off when Bia's loud voice resonated next to their ears.

- "Wake up, sleepy heads!"

Ronan pinched his brow and looked at the small bird flying nearby. He easily spotted Kyle's familiar figure, sitting atop a raised area in the distance with Old Hal.

"He's awake already?"

Ronan clicked his tongue and intended to wash his face. But he was surprised when Kyle told him and the others to freshen up and change into clean clothes. They agreed and left the area

for a short while.

Simultaneously, Kyle grabbed Bia by her neck. Instantly, the phoenix let out an angry huff at his audacity, but before she could fight back, he conjured water in the air and tossed her into

it.

"Clean yourself too. You have become dirty and smelly."

Bia's eyes widened with disbelief.

-"You bastard!? That's how you gonna repay the favor I did by letting you sleep on my back! I

will beat you-!"

Her words faded as more water materialized around her, engulfing her body completely. After a few seconds, the water scattered in the air, leaving behind a drenched, angry phoenix. Kyle held back a chuckle when he saw Bia shaking off the excess water from her body and preening her feathers with furious eyes. She appeared clean, but he was certain she would attack him any second by the way she was glaring at him.

He was right spot on because Bia lunged at his hair and began pulling them out. Her enraged voice echoed everywhere.

- "I can easily clean myself with just a blink of my eyes, so why do you always have to toss me in water every time??"

He swiftly grabbed her and placed some food in front of her to calm her down. A sigh of relief escaped his lips as she harrumphed and settled down to eat.

'It's fun... buy dangerous for my hair.'

Kyle was looking at Bia when Old Hal and the others came back.

He arched a brow as they all leisurely took their time to reach him. Ronan rolled up his sleeves

and took hold of his weapon.

"So, when are we moving?"

Bia landed on Kyle's shoulder as he leaped down from where he was seated. Instantly, the

silver spear materialized behind him.

"Now."

No one was surprised at his words anymore and quickly followed him as he disappeared with

the phoenix. Ronan and Old Hal took the lead and floated alongside Kyle. Not because the others didn't want to, but because the duo was the only ones who could match the human's

agility.

Old Hal furrowed his brows as they approached the area completely enveloped in dark energy. Despite it being daytime in the Sacred Divine Land, the clouds above that region were

ominous and dark.

"What's the plan? Are we gonna sneak in and start eliminating the other side quietly?"

His eyes went blank when he heard Kyle's nonchalant response.

"No, I can only sense two supreme ranks in the area and a hundred transcendent ranks. So, we

will face them head-on. It's not like they are fools and unaware what we have been up to in

the last two weeks."

He chuckled with cold eyes.

"They for sure know we have taken out many of their folks. I wouldn't be surprised if they are actually waiting for us to show up so they can finish us off."

Ronan looked over at Ned and Vexana, who went pale at the human's words.

"If there are a hundred transcendent ranks individuals... I am sure the divine ranks must be

almost twice that number."

"Can the seven of us handle them all?"
