Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 729: Let's finish what was left unfinished



Bia's eyes flickered with panic as she listened to Kyle's laughter. She tried her best to reach out to him, hoping to make him snap out of his sudden outburst, but it was as if he could no longer hear her. Or perhaps he simply didn't want to anymore.

The air quivered, and in the next moment, under everyone's widening eyes, despite the immense pressure bearing down on him, Kyle forced his body to move.

Blood trickled from his mouth and every inch of his skin, yet he bore the strain. After all, this degree of pain was nothing.

A wide smirk played on his lips as he felt the pressure on his body increase further. It was fortunate that his physique was at the supreme rank; otherwise, he would have already been crushed under the weight.

Damien's eyes darkened at his smile. An unsettling premonition surged within his heart, and without hesitation, he used his power and clenched his fist tightly.

In the next moment, with a loud, deafening sound, the center of the planet, where the core was situated, erupted in an explosion, the devastating impact sweeping through to obliterate and consume everything.

Yet, even as the explosion threatened to consume everything, Kyle's frenzied gaze remained locked on Onicuss.

Hubert, in a frantic bid to protect his soul, used every ounce of spiritual energy in his body to survive the explosion.

Next to him, James, who was on the brink of sacrificing his own soul to halt the blast, felt his heart stop beating when he realized it was too late. His people-the ones who had come to save him-would all die...

Bia simply closed her eyes. After all, she was hundred percent certain she wouldn't die- definitely not in Kyle's presence.

This was because, despite his craziness, she trusted him. Moreover, unlike the others who were far away from them, she sensed it very clearly-the familiar calm yet chilling aura radiating from his entire body.

For some reason, this time the icy power felt so overwhelming to the phoenix that everything else seemed insignificant, like a mere speck of dust in comparison.

As the impact of the explosion radiated outward from the planet's center, Kyle's voice cut through the chaos.

"I was meant to end my target. It's time to complete what was left unfinished."

His voice was hoarse, almost grating, strained by the oppressive pressure.

The tips of his dark hair instantly transformed to silver, glistening beautifully amidst the surrounding darkness, as he vanished from his spot.

Then everything came to a standstill.

The surging explosion, the swirling fragments, the air, the myriad of energies-even Bia, Hubert, and James were caught in this moment, suspended in time.

Damien's eyes dilated as he sensed a chilling aura behind him, but before he could react, Onicus's shrill cry pierced the air. His heart raced, and a single question echoed in his mind... How the hell did Kyle manage to intrude into a space that was completely under his control?! It was simply impossible!

With every ounce of agility he could summon, he turned, but the sight before him made him blood run cold.

Right in front of him was the human who hadn't even stepped into the supreme rank yet-he had torn apart Onicus's right arm. Blood splattered everywhere, painting his vision entirely crimson.

Kyle's green eyes glowed with an overwhelming radiance, devoid of any emotion except pain as blood trickled down his cheeks. His head throbbed, and he knew he was using a power he wasn't meant to access yet-thanks to his bloodline, which had risen from its slumber to save him when his life was threatened.

His body felt like it would burst at any moment from the overwhelming icy power coursing through him, trying to desperately merge with him, but he refused to stop and ignored the pain that threatened to consume him completely.

Just as Damien was on the verge of breaking free from his trance, blue flames erupted from Kyle's body, engulfing both him and Onicus in a chilling embrace. The space turned frigid, so much so that even the surrounding darkness recoiled.

Onicus's anguished wails echoed briefly before silence fell, and the flames began to devour everything in their path.

Damien could only watch as the towering flames tore through the separated space he had created. Finally, fear-the emotion he only ever felt in Azazeal's presence-flickered in his azure gaze.

He wanted to stop the flames, but the moment he attempted to harness the laws of nature, an icy aura surged forth to thwart him. Then his instincts kicked in. It told him to run-run away before the blue flames engulfed him. Sensing the strength of the flames, he knew that even if his soul survived, he would lose his body.

With gritted teeth, he retrieved several explosive artifacts and hurled them into the surrounding area before disappearing into the crack that appeared behind him.

For now, he needed to inform Azazeal about nature's favorite-because if Kyle remained alive any longer, he feared the dark side would surely lose its advantage and face dire consequences!

'Ceano was right! We definitely can't allow this human to stay alive!'

After he disappeared, a faint frustrated sound reverberated from within the blue flames, as if the person controlling them was displeased with his escape.

The flames surged in all directions.

Time stood still, and the only movement within the eerie stillness was the flickering of the icy flames, casting a brilliant glow that illuminated the darkness.

In just mere seconds, they enveloped the entire exploding planet in their embrace. A faint whisper echoed in the space.

"Beauti... ful."

The voice disappeared, and then the massive planet that had frozen into ice shattered, breaking apart into tiny cold particles that filled the space like sparks.

The people outside the dark barrier encircling the planet, which Damien had erected earlier, realized when the barrier suddenly lost its strength. With one last powerful blow, Odiak

shattered it.

He rushed forward with three others alongside him, but the sight that greeted them was something they knew they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

Behind the older individuals, Nine's golden eyes sparkled with wonder as he gazed at the countless particles before him. He even reached out his hand to touch them, only to shudder when the cold sparks vanished into nothingness upon contact with his skin, leaving a tingling sensation behind.

"Just what the hell happened here...?"

He was mesmerized, and the golden threads in his eyes began to shift as if attempting to grasp something powerful. However, unfortunately, his moment of enlightenment was interrupted, and he snapped out of his trance when he heard Elizabeth panicked scream.

"James!"

The woman rushed forward with all her might and grabbed the floating, bloodied man who was amidst the cold sparks. Odiak and the other elder hurried behind her. Their expressions turned grim as they assessed James's condition.

Fortunately, he was alive but unconscious. However, his body was in terrible condition, and it appeared to have deteriorated further due to the extreme cold. Odiak rubbed his head, his

expression heavy with concern.

"His body is destroyed. He will need to create a new body for his soul because healing this one

will take many years."

While the three elders examined James, Alec appeared behind Nine and slapped him on the

back to get his attention.

After hearing the news from Yue that Kyle and James were confronting Damien, who had appeared to save Onicuss, Elizabeth, Odiak, and another elder present instantly abandoned their tasks to rush to the location Yue had shared with them.

Naturally, the three elders had no time to worry about Yue and her companions who wanted to

tag along. However, to everyone's shock, Nine abruptly jumped into the crack the elders had created. Before Carcel and the girls could process Nine's action, Alec also vanished behind him, having already sensed the merman's plan.

Nine swatted the hand that slapped his back away with an aggrieved look.

"What? Can't you see I'm trying to find out if Kyle's body is still intact?"

Alec rolled his eyes.

"He had escaped this place. There's no way he would linger around after destroying an entire

planet. Don't you dare joke with me. Tell me why you followed the elders. You know we are in

the same boat now."

He paused for a moment, somewhat surprised at how readily he had accepted that it was indeed Kyle who had destroyed this planet. With a wry smile, he shook his head and refocused

his focus on Nine.

"You've been acting suspiciously."

Nine let out a deep sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose. This bastard really had an uncanny

intuition.

"I wanted to separate from the group for a while. There's a place I want to visit, and this was

the best time."

Alec narrowed his eyes but then just nodded. He too wanted to go to a place he had recently discovered. But that place was too dangerous-he couldn't go there now. Not until he reached

the supreme rank.

"What place?"

He nearly choked on his breath when he heard Nine's answer because it was the very place he

wanted to visit!

"Sea of Consciousness."

Nine whispered, and a determined gleam flickered in his eyes. It was a place he had glimpsed

in his vision when he hugged Jian to say farewell on the elven planet. "The only place in this universe where we can put our lives on the line, but in return,

comprehend the laws of nature."
