Celestial Bloodline
chapter-638

Nine moved back as he witnessed the ice forming on Kyle's body.

"A healing skill?"

Alec also watched as Kyle was soon enveloped in ice, resembling an ice statue.

"Yes, a powerful one."

He remarked, and Mia nodded in agreement. Bia landed on the blue-haired woman's shoulder with a sigh.

-"He had gone a bit crazy. I need a break. I've endured too much because of him."

Mia chuckled and picked up the phoenix, who had resumed her smaller form, before gently caressing her body. Bia leaned in to the touch with a content expression.

-'I needed this.'

At that instant, they sensed a powerful surge of energy coursing through the air.

Alec turned his eyes toward the marble structure next to the broken woman statue. He knew it the instant he arrived here, that he had reached Jian's location because the system told him. Zron, the old dwarf, was also inside the structure ahead of him.

A grin lit up his face as he glanced at Mia and Nine, but before he could utter a word, Kyle's eyes flickered open.

"Oh... Jian has successfully reached the transcendent rank."

The icy encasement around his body fractured, transforming into minuscule particles. As the ice dissipated entirely, not a single scratch marred his skin; even the blood on his body dispersed into particles.

A bright, chilly aura radiated from Kyle's figure, enhancing his complexion with a radiant glow as he stretched his neck.

"I knew he could do it."

Nine snorted in response.

"Don't change the subject. You need to explain why you were hunting undead!"

Kyle let out a smile.

It was the broadest smile he had ever shown to his friends, captivating the three individuals hovering before him instantly.

"Let's go check on Jian."

He turned around and swiftly headed towards the structure next to the shattered statue of a woman, while Alec, Nine, and Mia watched his departing figure in a daze.

Only after he vanished into the entrance of the structure, did Bia clear her throat to bring the others back from their daze.

-"I guess he didn't wanted to explain."

Nine shut his open mouth.

"What just happened?"

Bia's eyelid twitched. She had already become accustomed to Kyle's appearance after spending time with him.

Kyle always wore a passive expression, so when he smiled, it had a devastating effect on those around him.

Alec glanced at Nine.

"I believe he dodged your question in a way we never expected..."

Nine closed his eyes for a moment to collect himself, then opened them to whisper to Alec.

"Hey, did the ice Kyle just used on his body enhance his charm? Why do I feel like it improved his looks?"

Alec nodded solemnly. Mia couldn't contain her laughter at their conversation, and the two gave her a look. They were genuinely contemplating asking Kyle to use the strange ice on them.

Mia shook her head and began gliding toward the entrance of the structure.

"Guys, let's go see how Jian is doing."

Alec and Nine exchanged glances and trailed behind her. Before they even entered the structure, a portal materialized in the sky. A familiar laughter resonated through the air as Jian emerged from the portal, his face lit up with joy.

"Yes! I nailed it!"

Zron emerged behind him with a smile, followed by Asher. The two of them had returned to this place after Kyle ran off to who knows where with the phoenix. Alec, Jian, Mia, and Bia quickly approached the red-haired man. Jian's eyes sparkled as he glanced at them.

"It's good you all found this place!"

He went toward Nine and Alec and bumped shoulders with them, laughing.

After waving at Mia, he enthusiastically began showing his strength and explaining about the platform to them.

Alec's eyes brightened as he listened to Jian. He was already at the pinnacle of the divine-rank and just needed a tiny push to reach the transcendent level. That's why the platform was perfect for him.

Both Mia and Nine were a bit away from reaching the final stage of divine-rank, so they both chose to absorb some treasures they had discovered in the Sacred Divine Land to enhance their strength to the pinnacle of divine-rank.

They spotted the half-dragon hovering with Zron behind Jian. The trio was shocked when Jian introduced them to Asher, who had resided in this tomb for a hundred years and shared how Kyle had come across the half-dragon right after arriving in the tomb.

Only when Jian mentioned Kyle name did everyone noticed the silver-haired man had not emerge from the portal yet. Bia furrowed her brows.

-"Where's Kyle?"

Before Jian could respond, Bia reached out to Kyle through their mind link and was left speechless when he informed her that he was going to locate Carcel, Lara, Regius, and the others who could utilize the platform using his scent perception skill and bring them to this

location.

-'Don't you dare tell me this is another form of training you are doing!?'

The phoenix was a bit angry when Kyle admitted that he was, in fact, working on enhancing

his scent perception skill. Kyle chuckled in response.

'You know me so well. I will feed you something good when I am back.'

Bia sighed at his words and allowed him to do as he pleased.

- 'This is a hundred times better than you charging straight into a horde of undead.'

Alec, Nine, and Mia headed to inspect the platform upon learning that Kyle had gone to locate

the others.

Jian and Asher led the way for them.

Regardless, the half-dragon was a bit surprised to discover that the silver-haired man, who seemed aloof and distant, actually had a large circle of friends, each one formidable in their

own right.

Zron just trailed behind the group since he had already achieved the transcendent rank, making the platform useless for him.

The old dwarf had indeed planned to store the entire platform in his mind space once everyone had finished using it. One mustn't allow such a valuable treasure to waste away in

such a location.

As they arrived in the chamber containing the platform, Alec took a deep breath and ascended

the platform before all of them.

"Alright guys, wish me luck!"

Jian and Nine scoffed at him with mirth dancing in their eyes.

"You are the strongest among us! We believe it will be very easy for you!"

Mia and Bia nodded in agreement, and after Alec closed his eyes, they all began waiting for

him to ascend to the next rank.
