Celestial Bloodline
chapter-594

Kyle's icy smile displayed his resolve as he gestured towards the sky. His goal was to swiftly and ruthlessly kill the two shadow generals. This way, everyone in the arena would see that this time the dark side had messed with the wrong person.

He didn't plan to harm the other individuals from the dark side. His intention was solely to take out the two shadow generals they worshipped right before their very eyes and let them all go. So they could spread the word in the dark side that he had begun hunting them, to end them.

As he lifted his hand, under the watchful eyes of Ceano and Will, two brilliant beams of light shot out swiftly from the pulsating circular array in the sky and descended upon Alec and Carcel's bodies.

The two men who were approaching Kyle paused in their tracks when the brilliant light enveloped their bodies. Immediately, they felt overwhelmed as their strength began to rise at an alarming speed.

The crowd below, trapped in chains encircling their bodies, was stunned beyond words as the two men's ranks rose from the divine rank to the transcendent rank, swiftly moving through all its levels before reaching the supreme rank.

The light, however, kept pouring onto them, exceeding the initial stage of the supreme rank. It climbed higher, and only when the duo reached the last stage of the supreme rank did the light scatter in different directions with fluttering sounds.

Elizabeth took a sharp breath and ceased her attempts to free herself from the chains, muttering under her breath.

"Just what the heck is this freakin' cheat of an array? How can it even exist? And why the heck did I never know such a powerful array existed all this time!?"

Then it hit her that she, James, and the people with them barely knew about arrays. She realized they had totally missed this powerful profession that could have made them win the war just by using arrays.

Alec gasped for breath and clutched his chest as an immense surge of energy coursed through his body. The amount of spiritual and divine energy in his entire body was so overwhelming that he almost felt like his body was about to burst with extraordinary power, as if he could obliterate everything around him.

Carcel was in a similar state as beads of cold sweat formed on the forehead of the golden-haired man.

Shock was an understatement to describe the level of disbelief visible in the two men's eyes as they steadied themselves in mid-air after gaining an immense amount of strength within seconds.

Kyle glanced at the duo and took a deep breath. He had already infused his share of strength into his body while seated on the hovering stage. Therefore, he only needed to provide Carcel and Alec with their portions so the array could begin operating autonomously, no longer requiring his constant attention to remain active and keep everyone bound in the chains.

Alec and Carcel steadied their breathing and disappeared from their positions to assess their newfound strengths.

Adjusting to such immense power so abruptly was a bit overwhelming, but they were not ones to be daunted by such challenges. They reappeared behind Kyle, armed with their weapons, as he gazed at Ceano and Will, and an innocent smile graced the corners of his lips.

"How do you like my surprise? Now, the battle is between three individuals at the top of the supreme rank facing off against two others, one in the middle stage of the supreme rank and the other at the final stage. It's not fair, I know, that's why I will offer you two a chance to flee."

"So, run to save your lives."

Alec and Carcel were speechless at his playful words, feeling a touch of cruelty in his attitude. It looked like the silver-haired man was getting a bit excited.

Kyle blinked and tilted his head as neither Ceano nor Will budged from their positions, simply fixing their gaze on him.

"Why? Not planning to flee? I'm offering you the chance, you know."

With a snap of his fingers, a small gap appeared in the array above them. He wasn't being cocky and assuming they wouldn't run; it was just that after the array boosted or reduced someone's strength, their power would remain constant even if they wandered away from the array.

Their strength would only return to normal when the array ceased to function or was destroyed. So, even if the shadow generals managed to slip out of the array, he was confident he could drag them back and eliminate them in front of everyone.

However, to Kyle's confusion, the two shadow generals shook their heads at him. Will chuckled, and Ceano, who had been angered by Kyle after his strength was weakened, raised an eyebrow towards him with a taunting and cold gaze.

"Well, we don't intend to run. Why don't you demonstrate what you have got?"

Unlike Kyle, who had no clue about the shadow generals' intentions, Nine, who was observing the scene from below like everyone else, suddenly recalled something crucial. His eyes widened, and he yelled towards Kyle with all he had.

"You bastard! Let me go! I have something vital to share with you! You can't fight without me! Stop right there!"

The people around him were a bit startled by his sudden outburst, but it seemed like his voice didn't reach Kyle because the man didn't even glance his way.

Panic flashed through Nine's eyes as he looked at the shadow generals and the three men floating in the air. In that moment, Kyle furrowed his brows with a bored expression and spun his spear.

"If you two have no intention of escaping, then I don't think we need to waste any more time. Let's just end this."

He spoke in both Alec and Carcel's minds to convey some important information.

'The array will only remain functioning for three hours, and I trust you both know what needs to be done. I will take care of the golden-eyed one; finish off the other.'

Kyle's eyes gleamed as he moved toward Ceano with a speed that was very similar to the one Elizabeth had shown earlier.

He understood that even if the array could endure beyond three hours, Carcel, Alec, and his body wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure for an extended period.

The people beneath watched the silver-haired human with bated breath. Unlike those aligned with the dark side, who were losing hope and filled with fear at the unfolding scene, the rest displayed eyes gleaming with a touch of excitement amid the chains enveloping their bodies.

Old Hal and Elizabeth both inwardly decided not to punish the silver-haired human for his actions if he truly eliminated the two shadow generals. But what transpired next caught everyone off guard, with Kyle being the most surprised as his movements were halted by a hand gripping his arm.

He gazed at the blue-haired man with a perplexed expression.

"Why...?"

A chill ran down his spine when he saw Alec's eyes completely blank, almost as if the man had lost all his senses.
