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."
- "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?"
